My Galaxy S4 has had poor call quality for a while now and I'm not sure whether changing radios would effect it? I've got 5 bars and every time I call someone, I can barely understand them the quality is so poor, causing me to constantly ask them to repeat what they said until I can understand them. No, I'm not going deaf.
If anyone has any ideas on what I could try, please let me know!

During the talk (conversation), it happens that somethimes people can't hear at moments (usually for 3-5 seconds) or hear me but tone is quite.
I have tried all Radio's and with each one is the same thing.
Can you tell me what is the cause of this problem?
ps. sorry for my english
maybe poor reception because of poor gsm covering ?
or a glitch in your operators hardware or the hardware gsm module in the device
Reception is full.
glitch? I don't know.
Now i turn on 3G and i will test that.
------
I try 3G but some thing
I allways hear people who are talking with me.
I had a similar issue with an old phone a while back. Turned out to be a problem with the service, ie Orange. Cleared up after a while by itself.
I have the same problem and it is intermittent. Very annoying when people say they cant hear me. Somebody please help.
hello.
i have a problem with my nexus s.
during a regular cellular call, i hear really bad the other side, really blurry, so i need to figure out what they are saying to me sometimes.
is there something to do? did someone else experience what i do?
thanks.
What does really bad mean?
Static? No sound? or low volume?
it means very blurry sound, the volume is good, no static problem, just hard to figure out what the other side says to me.
Regardless of if it's speaker or not?
Are you rooted?
What kernel/rom are you running if so?
Sorry, gonna be asking a few more questions to find the root cause of it.
You might want to install a voip program and see if that sounds blurry in order to see if its the hardware or not.
no problem i'll answer whatever you ask.
it's mostly on the earpiece.
i'm not rooted.
version 2.3.2
kernel version is 2.6.35.7-g7f1638a

which VOIP program do you recommend?
If you have a Skype account then you can probably install that and call someone.
Fring has a test call thing for sure so you could also use that.
ok i just tried the fring test call and i think i can point out the problem.
when it asked me to say something and than it played it back, i said high frequency stuff like "tssssss" or "tsshhhhh", and it lacks the high frequency.
Interesting, so it sounds watered out like a low quality mp3 does then.
You might want to check out the warranty for that cause it might be the actual speaker piece that's messed up.
thats quite a problem for me, because i bought the phone in the US but i live in israel.
isn't there something to do? maybe a fresh install of the phone with no apps?
i'm not sure, but its possible that when i bought it and it had no apps, the sound was crisper.

It should get you back to stock.
Hi all a friend off mine has had his sg3 for a week or so now. When in a call he can hear people just fine but the other person has problems with the sound fading i.e its clear one minute the next goes distorted and very low (does this all the time). He is getting a full signal and the other people are as well. This happens on different phones so its something to do with his sg3. Was wondering if anyone else had this problem and if so how do you fix it.

Edit: Just realised this should off been in the Q&A section sorry
So I have been using the AT&T S4 for a week or so now and I noticed that a lot of time, people on the other side of a phone call have a hard time hearing me. I recently rooted my phone and can't recall if I had this problem before that change. Anyone else out there having the same issue? Wondering if at this point, if it's some weird side effect of rooting the phone (but I don't see anyway how it could...)
mine is rooted and the call quality is perfect and the volume is too loud try a reset
delete
Guess I'll go in and have it replaced. I'll let you guys know about the change and if that was the problem. Thanks for the super quick replies!
Volume and call quality are great on mine.
However, the G4 does not get the same signal strength (cell and wifi) that my G3 did....

I have bought ze520k model..me too facing this audio problem
Same here with ZE552KL on 4G i have really bad quality. When I had Galaxy S5 there wasn't any problem...
This is alarming. DOn't see much support on the matter?
I got same phone as far as now. I have no issues with it. Been using it for a month.
Had issues with system getting stuck and everything freezing. (due bad memory management). An update 2 days ago solved the issue and now everything is working perfectly !
Got the same issue, ZE520KL, seems to happen only with normal phone calls. Data was enabled, but I was connected to WiFi, so I'm not sure if it's related with data connection.
It sounds like talking through a walkie-talkie with low volume.
Additionaly, I noticed some kind of background noise filter that turns incoming audio quality down in WhatsApp and Skype calls. It'd be really good if someone came up with a flashable/Xposed mod to get rid of it.
I send my Zenfone to the local service and they said that everything is ok... But still when i'm calling from Galaxy S5 quality is much better :/
I have upgraded it to nougat and I don't have any issues with audio quality when making phone calls, which is fine the sound is still clear enough for my ear.
If you compare it for ex to Samsung S5 it is really bad

It's true, I confirm this. The audio of the conversations is too low!
Is it possible to change the file system on a rooted phone? I don't know, maybe changing some parameters, even if it distorts the sound a bit?
Just sell this piece of .... I just bought Galaxy S8.
