[Q] The microphone and the speaker mute on phonecalls - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

First of all, my phone has root access and its unlocked using the bootloader method(I boughted like this a week ago).
The first 4 days the phone worked perfectly, but now im having this trouble:
When i make phone calls or i recieve phone calls, the microphone and the speaker mutes.
For example, if i call Jhon he receives my phonecall, but he can not hear me and i can not hear him. Also i can not hear the first tones if im making the phone call and waiting the other person to answer.
If i make a hard reset, everything starts working fine again. But after a few hours this malfunction comes back.
I changed my sim card, but nothing changed.
I think this might be a ROM's bug.
What do you think?

XDA II Delay in Receiving Calls

Been having a problem on my XDA II in that when I receive a call and answer it, it takes a few seconds before I can hear the other person. Sometime it woks fine and others the person can hear me but I can't hear them ?
It has been back for repair 3 times and it still does the same thing. The speaker is fine as it works loud and clear, it's only on incoming calls not on outgoing.
The place where I have bought it will now swap it out for a XDA IIi as you cant get the II anymore around here. That's great but I would still like to know why it went wrong ? Anyone got any clues ?
plz explain what is delayed.
Could it be just too much s/w running?
I found that when I am running activesync, calendar & contacts sometimes there is an awful delay in the response of the MDAII. Especially the BT headset has delays then of more then 20seconds (so I answer call on MDAII and then transfer it to headset when this occurs).
delay on phone
:shock: Me too!
Not sure if I should answer on screen,accept or reject,or green button.Both seem to delay,often with caller ringing again.
When the phone rings and you answer it. You hear nothing. It's a case of hello ? hello ? etc. They can hear you but I can't hear them then all of a sudden their sound will just kick in.
Actually sometimes when I dial out, I never hear a ringing tone and all of a sudden the person cuts in.
There is a delay. I have no software running at all. It does this from a hard reset as well.
What bugs me is that it has gone back 3 times and they claim it has been tested and fixed. It clearly hasn't.
Hope the XDA IIi is better, cos this was very annoying.
Hi Ekko,
Would you happen to be running Pocket Bluetooth Tools?
Cheers,
Pete
Hi, the phone was fine until about 6 mths old when it started doing this. I had Pocket Bluetooth on it and it used to be totally fine. This never affected it at all.
Obviously once this problem arose, I have hard reset the machine on a number of occasions and have used it as a clean machine. Same problem ? So not down to Bluetooth Tools.
Hands Free mode
In order to use an Himalaya with a BT headset you need to run 2.20 translated. The Hands Free profile works better and it will even support caller ID and there is no delay when answering calls.

Buggy Outgoing Calls?

Hi everybody, I seem to be having a major problem when making outgoing calls, (ie. to Voicemail and other contacts).
Sometimes, whenever I try to call my voicemail or other people, I don't hear any ringing, and when the person picks up.. I hear no sound. This is usually fixed by clicking speakerphone then unclicking it, and I can hear people fine.
But sometimes my sound works perfectly fine... but lately it's been on and off.
I've tried a soft reset, and even went to T-Mobile to get a SIM card replacement, but it still happens on & off? For example, one hour I may make a phone call and I can hear the ringing as well as the other person on the line. The next hour, I may not hear any of the ringing or the person's voice... UNTIL I press speakerphone and unclick it.
I even re-flashed my G1 back to the official Android 1.5 update, it was never rooted in the first place.
I hear incoming calls perfectly fine, and receive text messages perfectly fine as well.
Do you guys think this could be a software or 3rd party issue?
Is your fone rooted?
If it is, then try reflashing your current ROM (or another build maybe)
What ROM are u running?
Have u tried flashing the radio with a newer version?
Be careful if you are running the newest SPL because downgrading the radio will brick your fone.
It sounds like a software issue because you say turning on speakerphone and then turning it off seems to make it work IMO. This would reset the software's interface with the hardware.
No, my phone has never been rooted.
I only flashed my G1 to the official UK cupcake update, then flashed it back to the official US cupcake update when it came out. I re-flashed the U.S update, and I'm STILL having this problem on and off.

problem with calls...

Hi i'm having problems with outgoing, incoming, and during calls...
i have a sprint mogul, unlocked, running stock sprint rom.
lately, sometimes when i make an outgoing call to someone there is just silence. there is no ringtone or anything. i look on the screen and it says it is connected but there is no sound on the other end.
when someone makes a call to me, i pick up but there is no sound. it says i'm connected but it is just silent.
i tried calling my friends phone, i saw that it was calling him, he picked up and said hello but i couldn't hear anything then i said hello and he couldn't hear me either. he called me, it came in and connected, i said hello and some other stuff but he couldn't hear me and i couldn't hear him.
when calls are working and we can both hear eachother, my phone goes silent then we both can't hear eachother. i did not hit mute or anything and the phone says that it is still connected.
i was running a custom rom before putting the stock back on. i have hard reset and everything else.
other thing that is also happening is that when i reset my phone (pressing the little hole) it goes straight to bootloader...
it also went straight to bootloader after running the customizations and resetting. to get out of this i have to take out the battery for like 15 min and then it starts up normally...
Can anyone help me with this problem? or is my phone dying?

Can't hear calls nor can they hear me

Hey guys,
Just got an unlocked Focus (used) from eBay.
Everything works fine, just updated to Mango, but I can only make ONE proper call after I reset the phone.
Everything after that, the dialer screen just hangs until the call ends and everything resumes back to normal.
When people call and I answer, it's the same thing.
Basically I can make/receive calls, but in the call screen, everything's frozen, I can't put it on speaker phone, open the dial pad or mute.
At the same time, no sound either way.
Any ideas?

Nexus 6P not activating speaker during call

Something wierd its happening to my Nexus 6P recently.
Its very rare and hard to replicate.
Phone just works fine i mean all things but on rare times when someone calls me(or when i make call there is no sound for ringing) phone rings and i answer call but there is no sound from speaker at all but other person can hear me correctly and to be more hard to diagnose problem speaker works just fine in other apps like Youtube,MXPlayer,ect..(no phone reset).
Im using LTE as my default on VIPnet Croatia.
Is it possible that poor LTE signal can bug my phone calls like this?
In 3 months owning phone this happened to me 2 times.
EDIT:
When i unplug charger from phone speaker comes back like nothing has happened.
Gonna try Samsung charger.
