I recently upgraded to ava froyo9 and it is a really nice rom beside one thing... very rarely when I make calls or when someone calls me I cant hear them. They can hear me fine, I just cant hear them. I tried to do some searching for this issue but could only find threads related to the phone having no sound at all.
Anyone know what the issue might be? When I upgraded to ava I did a device wipe, so it was a clean install.
Thanks.
Hi guys i need your help because i'm a super noob,
I'm new to the samsung/android world. I've been an apple fan boy and decided to switch.
I bought a samsung galxy s4 i9505 it was on 3 UK. The phone works fine but after a few calls, I can't hear the other person and they can't hear me. When I restart the phone it works fine again and then after a while it does it again. I updated the phone and also restored it to factory settings. Do you have any idea what could be causing the problem? I will be forever grateful if you guys can help me!
Thank you all in advance.
Mike
no luck

I switched from iphone 4 to S4 too. Didn't encounter such problem.
Try full wipe your phone using custom recovery, and flash latest stock rom. If problem still persist, it might be hardware problem.
I recommend this custom recovery.

I did a full flash with the latest firmware and kernel
i though about it but would the hardware issue be fixed with a reboot?

Not full flash. What I meant was FULL WIPE. You have to flash custom recovery like the one i recommended, and clear dalvik, cache, /system, /data, /preload. This will ensure everything is cleared and that firmware you flashed will not be affected by leftovers from previous firmware.
nope

I have the exactly same phenomena on my new Samsung S4 i9505.
Took it to the lab , and they have replaced the "Ringer" hardware , but it did not help .
I tried changing it today to WCDMA Only , but I doubt if this will help . Don't believe in miracles .
The next thing to do is a Hard Reset and install OS from scratch .
If anyone knows the solution please advise .

S4 call problem's fix
Hi guys.. I found what causes the problem, it's Viber and Tango they take over the phone calls so you have to remove them and it will work again. It's supposed to work immediately but if not restart your phone hope it helps

I am experiencing the same issue, and i also doubted viber, however some friends has viber installed and arent having any problem.

Ok i had the same issue here too. To test if it was my in call receiver i recorded my voice using the phone's voice recorder - and sure enough I could here the loud crackling noise that people on the other end claim they hear. Really strange because the call is fine if I use my (wired) headset or put the call on speakerphone.
I followed the advice on here and changed the network mode to WCDMA and all is well so far. crackling noise is gone and even the voice recorder is working fine now. I'm on Three Mobile UK (like OP). I think theres something up with the way the phones modem interacts with their signal/equipment. Hopefull thats the last I see of that issue. Fingers crossed,

Ok here is what worked for me to get all sounds back working on your gs4 first thing is to get hold of a stock unlocked Rom i9505XXUEMJ7 flash this in Odin 3.0.7 by putting the phone into download mode Switch phone off, HOLD DOWN HOME, POWER, VOLUME,DOWN, BUTTONS all at the same time till you see green Android open Odin up plug in cable click on PDA search for the i9505XXUAEMJ7.MD5 you downloaded it might take a few mins for Odin to find it once it has just click on START and let it do its thing DONT DISCONNECT while going through this process when its finished then like you did in Odin flash the (open recovery TWRP.tar) the same way only take like 10 sec it will reboot itself. Now after it starts up if you have a backup in ex-sdcard restore to that custom rom flash it let it boot up now your going to see in the bottom left hand corner safe mode, now try your volume keys on side of phone if you hear sounds then your good to go, now all you have to do then is reboot phone and when it comes back on everything should all be back to normal. Hope this helps
I am also facing same problem. Is it hardware problem? I am on warranty, if hardware problem it may replaced by samsung. Please advise.
I Have The Same Problem!! Cant Hear Calls!!
Was this ever solved I'm experiencing the same issue. I cant hear callers or even the ringing when calling people. The weird part is it works when hooked up to my bluetooth in my car. If I restart my phone it will work for a little while then the issue comes back. I restored to factory settings and flashed AT&T's stock firmware still no luck. Someone please help!!!
any luck?
I was in a vibercall with my friend and heard some weird sounds like the ones when u tried to connect to internet in the olden days. Since than I am unable to hear a word and the other party as well can't hear nothing on a cellular call(viber and Skype etc working fine means no hardware issue, antenna is fine as the call connects perfectly and sms sent and received promptly). I reset my phone after backing up with samsung kies which was a headache in itself. After the reset problem persists but when I changed my sim card problem was solved but that didn't last long after a few minutes the glitch was still there. So its been more than 4 days now I am using S4 Active kindly let me know if you guys found any solution or else I will just hit to the repair center.
And if any custom rom than please note its s4 active i9525.
Thanks
NO voice During call
hi guys
i have a problem with my s4 9505, i cant hear voice during network but i can hear voice on whatsapp/skype.
I have tried rebooting, even i switched to previous OS 4.4.2 , but in vain.
please suggest some solution
Hello xda,
umm ive been having a little bit of problem with my Grand 2 from the past few days. Actually, whenever i try to Dial or Receive a call from SIM 2, i cant talk or hear anything. that is, the other person cant listen to what im saying and i cant listen to them either. its almost as if both my Microphone and the Speaker ( or Receiver, idk what you call it xD) are not working at all. but if i Dial or Receive a call via SIM 1 then everything just works perfectly fine.
Then, if i reboot my phone (a full reboot and NOT a hot boot) Calls from SIM 2 start working again. Weird thing is, that it only works for an Hour or so and then the same problem arises again.
I've tried changing the SIM but that didnt help at all so i dont think theres anything wrong with the sim card or the network as i AM getting a full and stable signal.
If anyones got any idea whats wrong. please help me out i'd really appreciate it.
Im Currently using the GENNXT E3 rom By Balliboxer

It was probably an issue with the firmware itself haha. I dunno what happened but after the recent firmware upgrades both sims are working perfectly fine now. Can't be too sure about that though
Hi and greetings from Greece,
I've got a big problem with an unlocked Sprint SG4 NG2 , I've tried numerous ROMs and I cannot get it to work properly with networks in Greece.
When I first got it, it worked like a charm with its stock ROM but a few weeks later it was losing the sound and mic, with restarting it fixed that issue but needed many restarts per day.
So I flashed it with an excellent Russian MIUI ROM to find sound was also going off and on randomly...
I then flashed it with a few ROMs of JDC Team and later on a few CM ROMS to find the same sound and mic issue, while almost in every ROM at first it worked like a charm.
Now it is on CM12.1. At first I couldn't get incoming calls, but everything else worked fine including the sound and mic, tested it for a few days no issues on the sound, I was thinking I will definitely solve this problem finally!
I finally applied the fix from the no incoming calls thread but now again its losing the sound, usually in the morning and noon, not at night (weird!).
Is there anything I can do to make it work? Does anyone has experience with this issue on a NG2? Will if I flashed it with another radio solve this problem?
Please reply here or pm me! Thanks alot!
