Hey there Guys,
I have a really annoying Problem with my phone. When someone is calling me and talks nearly everyone tells that they hear a echo of themselve. I had this issue in the 2 4.4.4 Roms Form Danvh and now on the cm12 from netanalyzer. Is there a way to solve it?

Hi ,
Is the microphone cover?? if so uncover it , try it also without the phone back cover
Try to clean the microphone
Disable noise cancellation
Try and select under network the different bands available ( wcdma , 2G , 4G) to see if it is band related...
Cover oft no change. Clean isnt nessesary cause my phone got repaired had a hard crash. Where do i disable the cancelling in cm12? And isnt the cellular netwerk disabled during call?

Hi,
That it got repaired does not mean it has been cleaned...
do not know where it is in CM , on TW is in settings / my device/sound / call
during a call , unless you are using viber, skype or something like that you have to use your carrier network m there are different bands like wcdma , GSM......( mobile networks)
Was the sound in your phone working correctly before the "hard crash" repair?
Before the crash everything were fine. The complete screen module and some Sensor were replaced. The network and cancelling i try today. (Germany a BI different time)

Hi
Since yesterday i can't do anymore voice call. Data is working as i can use my browser, market.. This is not an issue with my provider (same issue with other sim card). I have tried to flash the device with other combo pda/modem, with repartition or not... Issue still there... Any idea?
Thanks
Same problem. is it hardware or software issue?
Hardware, i am afraid...
Try with bluetoth handsfree device, and if this work you probaly have a microfon broken. Tke some thin I have with Galaxy s. They change me a microfon and LCD screen.
Same result.....
Are you using 2.3.4? (the XXKGx firmwares)?
If so, try installing an older (XXKFx) modem file. The KGx modems seem to do odd things in areas of low (3G) coverage.
I have tried old combo yet...
No idea except samsung center ?
Up. please...
Hey, ive had similar problems with audio, and the microphone, try plugging in the hands free that came with it, then play ome music, then while still playing unplug i, if it comes out of the external speakers, try making a call then see if it works, long shot, but give it a go.
thanks, i have tried but nothing new .... For the voice call i have this message "invalid sim or network issue" and for the data all is OK I and I can browse or receive emails ... This is the same issue will all the sim i have tried (from different providers )
Samsung has changed the antena of my SGS2 but the result is the same ! I hate samsung ....I have to send it back again ....
Well...that's my problem...
I can't receive or send SMS anymore...
Last SMS I received did not make a sound or a reminder...I accidently clicked on sms tab when I saw it...
Last few had some problems with new messages notification...it just did not disappear for a lot more seconds as it should...
The second problem is incall sound quality...
I hear very bad and sometimes computer voice...
The person on the other end hear echo of his voice...
I had this echo problem for few weeks but it was very minor...
Now suddenly I can't use SMS and calling is so annoying...
And I am very sure these problems are connected because they started at the same time...
Top taskpar also does not bring up notifications menu...only start button works and battery bar is updated...
What could be the problem?
Software or hardware?
I am using EnergyRom, but never had problems with it...
I'm guessing a problem with Radio, due to the sms failure and robot voice in call. Try flashing another RADIO, it might solve the problem.

I've been using radio and rom I have for more than 3 months...situation began 3 weeks ago...
If I flash the radio again...do I need to hard reset?
Hard reset may be a good idea & you can make a backup first thus can recover fully if reset does not resolve issue.
Are you sure sim card & network are free from errors ? have you tested sim in another device & another sim in your device ?
Does the signal strength apear in normal strengh parameters.
What network/country is this happening on ?

I guess I will reflash radio and new July4 rom because I use June1 rom...
I am in Slovenia, I use Mobitel network...I did not test SIM...Signal looks same as always...
I did remember something new...weather location says Slovenia and not city anymore...this has been since the problems began...and it doesn't update weather very often anymore...
Internet connection works well...
Probably flashing would be best option...if it doesn't fix the problem, I'll return the device to be rapaired...
Sounds more like a network change & perhaps your device phone band settings & sms centre number need adjusting ! weather failing to update &/or not pull actual location is normally always network tower related so I guess Mobitel may have done some reconfigering of its towers !
Really worth swapping sims & another device before flashing or sending into repair. Also a call to Mobitel may shed some light on any network changes if you get a brighter than average human call centre drone ...

My Galaxy S4 Google Edition has randomly stopped connecting audio for calls in either direction. I have already tried all solutions I could find on the internet and this forum, including:
Reboot the phone
Check audio settings
Factory reset
Install multiple different stock firmwares
Install multiple modem versions for my phone
Test calling with other apps
Change type of network (GSM/CDMA/Global/etc)
Opening and cooling the phone
New SIM card
New carrier
I have determined that:
The calls work after leaving the battery out or switching batteries for about 2 calls before it quits again.
All speakers are working, but no audio ONLY during cellular calls.
Texting/Data works and calls on this SIM card work in other phones.
Calling DOES always work ONLY when using a bluetooth headset
It appears to NOT be a software issue, but I am not ruling that out.
Would anyone have an idea what piece of hardware could be broken? Any last software suggestions? I will be trying to sell this in a few days if no one knows anything else I can try.
Well the only thing you didn't try is a different simcard.

I just tried it and no difference. By extension, the new SIM was also a new carrier, so it was not related to that either. Thanks for the idea.
Same EXACT Problem
Not that this helps you at all, but I have the same exact problem. I have tried most of the same "solutions" you have tried as well, also to no avail. I have tried countless ROMs, reboots, Odin flashes, etc. What gets me is that once in a while, after installing a ROM or using Odin to go back to stock, I'll get my call audio back for a day or two. Eventually, and without apparent reason, the call audio goes away, and I'm back where I started.
In fact, I was about to write my own XDA post, but then I saw yours, and figured it would suffice.
Good luck. I hope someone has a solution out there because I'm at my wit's end.
Correction: All the same except that my phone is actually a MetroPCS SGH-M919N. Supposedly its the exact same model as the i9505.

Well, good to know it's not only the Google Edition. I believe the other threads I saw were from other models, too. The S4 must just have a cheaply made/defective part.
I've added one last observation to my list. I will probably make a swappa boneyard listing in a few days if anyone is interested.
Hi ,
Not clear if you guys have custom roms or not...
I seen similar problems like that in I9500 models and most of the time the problem was modem related..did you try to flash/ reflash a modem ( new or same) ?

I believe both of us have custom roms (and have tried flashing stock), and we have tried flashing a new modem (old and new). Although, since calling partially works, I will try a few more modems and report back.
Dear all,
I and my friend bought Samsung A8 a couple of days ago. We both are facing same call-drop issue.
We use BSNL prepaid SIMs and with default setting, whenever we change the mobile tower while talking, there is a squeaking digital noise and then the call drops. What I mean by default setting is, if you go Settings > Mobile Networks > Network Mode (BSNL in my case) > LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connecct).
I have tried many sorts of tweaks over this. First, I replaced my SIM card with a new one for no result.
Then, I found one curious behaviour. That is, if you put Mobile Networks to anything that has auto connect, you get this squeaking sound and call-drop. If you put the mode to *-only mode, the problem is no more! as far as I think this whole issue started after I have applied some update (don't know which, but now it is running the latest update and problem persists). Also, I have also tried complete reset to no avail. My phone has no apps other than the default ones.
I have been fed up with this issue to the core and thinking of changing the phone. Will you help me solve this issue?
Thanks,
Vivek
Call drop on Samsung Galaxy A8
Hi Vivek,
I have a exactly similar experience with A8. In the auto mode there can be 3G to 2g Ho and calls drop. But in locked mode of any of 2g or 3G , no problem.
Btw, which android version you are running?
Did it start after you installed any app?
Did you try to downgrade the firmware if you have the latest one?
Rgds, Hasnat

Hi,
This is a problem in my friends device and he is out of town now. so I couldn't share.
Just to further confirm, you haven't faced this problem even when you are in auto connect mode, right? This is bit of strange.

Hi Vivek,
Can you please share your device android version and firmware version?
So Guys ,
I have managed to fix the Echo Bug during calls some people have for all or some ROMs ....
well I can say its not specific ROM issue , either its baseband( software ) or sim carrier issue ! SO after intense testing with various different ROMs and sims all around world , I came to conclusion that 900 MHz frequency band i.e.. LTE network is causing Echo problem.
setting network mode to LTE in settings , for some carriers it gives this bug. Well for Some users its not the problem because carriers have dual band frequency set For Example : 900/1800 or 2100 MHz for me ! 900 MHz frequency can be for 2G/3G/4G , but as per my research maximum carriers have it for 3G/4G only . In India Airtel users are affected the most .
So coming up to Fixing up the bug , you guys can try forcing your sim to use any frequency other than 900 MHz , which is bad and not advisable because forcing to use one frequency will give you network drops and unstable network ( carriers go dual frequency to avoid this ) —---
I am not giving you this method but there is a easy method for all this to avoid !!!!!!
JUST CHANGE THE NETWORK MODE FROM LTE /3G /4G TO 2G AND TRY CALLING.
ALSO IF IT STILL GIVES ECHO , SWAP SIM SLOTS...
ALSO SOME PEOPLE IF STILL HAVE ECHO PROBLEM, THEN DID YOU HAVE SAME PROBLEM ON OOS ? IF NO THEN FLASH OOS AND THEN CUSTOM ROM OF YOUR LIKING - IT WILL FLASH THE LATEST FRAMEWORK.
Will try this method, will keep the thread posted. :good:
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: It worked for me, thanks bro!
Solved it, much appreciated.
fixed echo bug for me..thanks
The bug that I can hear myself only when using headphones is not related to this right? Just asking for completeness, as maybe this is another bug (mixer paths or something, dont really know lol)
Seems have solved it for me too, thanks a lot!

Yeah this bug is only about other people hearing their voice when talking to you AFAIK.
What's the underlying problem though? Is it only Nougat ROMs use the 900MHz frequency because CM13 is fine?

Please read the post again ! I already mentioned that its not ROM or carrier or band specific. Many people have problems on only N ROMs while others on all MM,N,OOS ROMs .... So still its in search mode ...
I only have it with Nougat Roms, no other Roms.
Don't really want to stop using 4g/LTE kind of defeats the object of a smart phone

more information
It may be related to noise cancellation thing. People only complain to me when I am doing calls on car speakers through an aux cable. And this only happens in custom roms but not on OOS. Tested and reproducible 100 percent times. Latest OOS 3.6.0 with multiboot.
