When making and receiving calls, around 10 -15 first seconds of speech are missing – the speaker is dead silent. The problem is intermittent and seems to be network band related. The phone’s network type and band are all set for AUTO. I notice that when in 3G area there are no problems with calling. If anything but 3G, i.e. E or H – those initial seconds of calls are missing. Any similar experiences? Any suggestions? I am on Orange in the UK, just in case. They say the handset is faulty and needs replacing. HTC don’t want to know.
Hello , I have an X1 with the stock R1 ROM and radio Radio 1.06.25.29 .
During calls and when my signal reception bars are 2 or 1, the other persons voice suffers from short interruptions. Is it the Roms fault which is old or it is my phones hardware?
Note that I have set my band to GSM and not to 3G!!
thanks!
I noticed how bad the issue with lost signal when you cover the antenna cover with your palm is and this happens if you are on 3G, so I changed to GSM only. Now I get full signal all the time but 70% of my calls are lost and diverted to voicemail due to unreachability. If I changed back to CDMA and GSM, I don't get lost calls but whenever I cover the lower back of the phone with my palm, I don't get calls again.
Neither is good so does anyone have a suggestion in regards to GSM only?
I have a Defy rooted and CM7, after doing this i wasn't getting 3g so i went into the Defy baseband switcher, switched to what appeared to be (closest) to what looked similar to my old setup, now i do get a "H" speed on my connection (assume this is 3g) but now all my calls sound tinny (almost electronic) and choppy. i really dont want to switch back to stock rom. Any tips would help. Have tried all of the US Tmobile bands, all do the same.
H is HSDPA (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Speed_Downlink_Packet_Access), that's just your data connection, it shouldn't affect your call quality. Phone signal or the earpiece itself are the only potential problems I can think of. Defy do have a notorious problem with broken ear pieces, is the sound still tinny when you click Speaker during a call?
Hi All,
I have a Galaxy Note 4 SM-N910F with BTU firmware N910FXXU1ANK4 (UK) which I flashed from the older O2 UK firmware N910FXXU1ANJ4 when I bought it.
I am having problems receiving calls and making calls when 4G LTE is enabled on the phone (I get 4G signal bar). When someone calls me my phone rings and the signal bar is 3-5 bars usually and when I slide to answer the phone it seems to answer (timer starts clocking up) and I can't hear anything (sometimes for a split second) and the other person can't hear me, then the person is directly kicked to my voice mail!
If I try to make outgoing calls with 4G enabled it sometimes works but other times it sits there saying "dialling..." then after 10 second or so gives up and stops. If I do manage to call out I get terrible phone recetion breaking up and high pitched noises sometimes. Sometimes it is ok for a while talking but eventually the call drops at some stage.
If I force my phone into 2G only or 2G/3G only then the phone seems to work completely normally.
I have had multiple SIM swaps with no luck.
Samsung walk in repair centre was useless as the empolyees all appeared to be undertrained kids.
O2 was no use saying there is no transmitter faults reported in my area.
Before I try a hard reset and flashing back to the old O2 firmware and then possibly sending my phone away for repair, is there anything else that might be going on here? Has anyone else seen this or know if it is a known problem?
Cheers,
Richard.

Most mobile providers still don't support VoLTE (don't know if that is the case in UK) so your phone needs to go down to 3g/2g when phone call is received.. So maybe there is some problem between BTU and O2 firmware (I am no expert, but may be CSC related)..
I suppose your network selection on 4g/3g/2g automatic mode, not LTE (4G only)?

I only have the option of :
LTE/WCDMA/GSM (auto connect) - Have the issues with this mode
WCDMA/GSM (auto connect) - No issues in this mode
WCDMA only - not tested
GSM only - No issues in this mode.
In phone dialer hit settings. There should be a volte toggle if there is turn it off.
I don't have any issue like that. 4G turns to 3G or 2G when receiving/taking a call. May be u hav an issue with ur firmware
I've tried flashing back from the BTU UK firmware back to the original O2 UK firmware and the problem remains. I also tried a hard reset afterwards leaving the same issue.
I have noticed that the issue does occur with 3G as well as 4G but it seems to be a bit more stable. 2G seems the most stable.
I have arranged with Samsung to send my Note 4 for repair so hopefully that will resolve the issues.
I have the same problem using 4G. Sent for replacement. Waiting for feedback..
got information that warranty service did find the problem and in a week or so I will get new one
I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!!!! THANKS A LOT !!!!! I WAS LIKE CRAZY TRYING WHAT CAN BE WRONG WITH THIS....
In my situation i can
send and receive sms on all mods
I can call in 4g but i can't receive calls when im on 4g... - just only hire is a issue
Last time my charger when i was charging in night get burn and i think meybe form that time... i have phone 3 weeks brand new.
