Not sure if anybody has experienced this yet or not but today randomly I can't hear anything during a call unless I turn on the speaker phone function. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. So I'm having a replacement sent out.
Got to say i don't make many phone calls so i have no idea when this issues started but here it is...
When i make a phone call the sound cuts out intermittently. It's almost like someone presses a mute button for half a second or so. So i miss maybe one or two words the caller says. They can hear me fine the whole time the issue is just on my end and it is over speaker and regular calls.
I have restored to factory image and it is the same. On the Three UK network.
Was thinking of maybe trying a different sim card to see if thats any better but it's a pain to test. Has anyone got this issue or got any ideas on what it could be?!

I am from Canada and am experiencing this problem as well. The weird part is, if I make a call through Facebook messenger or skype, it works perfectly fine...so I don't think it's a hardware issue.
Have you figured out a solution to this problem?
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?
So I recently bought a Verizon s5 and right away I flashed BOK3 and rooted the s5. (followed the steps in this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/general/root-method-og5-ok3-t3290370) any time I call someone or they call me they say im breaking up. It's like the mic is dropping in an out like I don't have service. I read on a couple of website to turn off the "ok google" or to plug in your headphones then unplug them but nothing has worked. If I switch to speakerphone they can hear me for like 10 seconds then it goes back to them not being able to hear me. This isn't a problem with reception because I have 4 bars 4g lte and still have the issue. I have also restarted my phone called right back and they still cant hear me. If i use bluetooth in my car they can hear me fine. I haven't noticed any problems while using snapchat and the mic messing up? any one have advice? btw this is a brand new s5.
Ever since I got my phone wet from the water hose splattering on it like rain the phone has been acting up every now and then. I don't know if it's related. but about 4 out of 10 phone calls people say I"m broke up and they can't hear me or they hear every other word. I can hear them fine. I have to reboot the phone to fix it. I also notice when using the HD recorder that the right channel doesn't have much audio to it when recording in stereo sound. the right microphone is the same one for phone calls. Does anyone else have any of these problems? Is there a solution? I haven't had the chance to call verizon about it yet. They'll just want me to reset my phone before sending a replacement and all that marigamaroo.
update: Since i rebooted the phone last time it's been good so far ad i noticed today when using the sound recorder on stereo sound, it records in both channels now. so whatever goes wrong with my phone it causes the bottom mic to crap out. Affecting phone calls and stereo recording with the bottom mic as as the "right channel" for the recording. I don't know if it's a hardware issue or a software issue. I don't know if resetting the phone would help or what. anyone have this issue or insight about it?
Yes, same issue on AT&T version. Haven't gotten the phone wet though. I have tried a hard reset and it didn't work.
I had that same problem till I turned of VoLTE (voice over LTE) Once that happened every call is crystal clear. Try it.

I figured it wouldn't work. i just reset my phone and reinstalling everything. have to see how it works now. and the bad connection with the headphone jack that the Verizon rep says should be fixed after a factory reset. they won't send a replacement till i reset the phone and try it again. he tried to get me to take it to the corporate store to verify the bad headphone jack and check the phone for damages, but the nearest corporate store is 50miles away. I'm not having that.
I have had headphone jack problems with the G3 and G4 - that all developed the more I used the jack. I haven't really used the jack much on G6, but its frustrating to hear that it may develop issues as well.
I called AT&T about the issue. They did some network reset on their end. If that doesn't work, they said to turn off "Enhanced LTE Services". I'm guessing that's the same setting as the VoLTE that Metalshadow mentioned above.
