Phone volume drops (no Sound) bug? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

I have looked with no luck for this issue that I am having. ("adapt sound" setting is not helping volume still drops.)
When I am in my car and trying to have a phone conversation in my car hands free with bluetooth, the other person on the phone can't hear me at times.
When I am trying to host a phone conference call with 2 other people, they say that they can hear me but I can't hear anyone. The volume comes and goes. Then it's gone.
Is this a known bug with the default stock G935TUVU4APK1 Rom?
I have notice some other subtle issues with this volume when trying to listen to YouTube App the volume would just drop and I would have to close the app and try again.
Can anyone suggest a fix.
This is the stock rom without root.

Feedback while talking...help!

Hi All,
I'm using my wizard as a cell phone (without bluetooth), and the people on the other end complain that they hear themselves, with a second-long delay. They hear me just fine, but it's really distracting to hear what you just said come back to you about a second later (it's very low volume, obviously). What I'm saying does not come back to me, only the people on the other end have this problem. Is there any solution to this problem? Is this a known problem? I'm on WM6, 2.19.11 radio and use Rogers in Canada.
Thanks!
Thats usually a sign you have your earpiece volume set too high and it is passing back to them via the mike.
Try turning the volume down whilst in a call and see if that helps.
Thanks, buit it doesn't seem to work too well. I think it may be on the recieving side, or may have something to do with reception. Actually, I noticed that the speaker volume adjusting doesn't actually make the speaker louder/quieter, it has next to no effect.

Loud in-call volume

I've been noticing the following strange behavior:
Sometimes the in-call volume is just too loud. Even on the minimum volume setting someone standing a couple of meters away from you will still perfectly hear the conversation. This only happens when receiving a call, never (as far as I can tell) when making one.
If during the call I switch on and then off the speaker, then the volume goes back to what it should be.
Has anyone noticed this before? Workarounds?
Yes, I've noticed this.
Always does it when it has been connected to a headset.
I seem to remember it went away when I installed the Modoco rom...
Mine still does it with the Modaco rom
@squirreleater: Thanks for your reply. It is just as you say
@both: Do you know if the latest HTC firmware fixes this issue? I know, I know, but I can't find the time these days to upgrade and find for myself
I`m on the latest MCR and it still does it. Its really P*****G me off now. I hate to take a call because of it.. Surely more people than us 3 are seeing this?
Yup, same thing for me although I've never noticed a difference between receiving and making calls (will watch out for that now). Quietest setting is still ridiculously loud. I'm on MCR 2.6 but have noticed on other roms as well.
I've noticed this too, but seems as though when I press volume up, it starts working again and allows me to lower the volume.
I can confirm that your workaround is just fine. Thanks.
So if i press volume up then down it will go quieter?
I will try this next call i get...
I am getting this same problem ... thanks for the tip I will try it.
I just noticed this. but after having my hero for like over a month. Could have appeared when i installed like 3 games yesterday but cant see why games would cause that to happen. but yea the workaround of increasing then decreasing the volume works. and it only happens when i receive the call. strange...

Anyone noticed this?

I still have the problem of when i make or receive a call the volume is so so loud even at the min setting.
But today when i was on the phone with my ear drums nearly bleeding....i had another call beeping through (call waiting) and noticed that straight away the volume of the call that i was on decreased to a sensibly level!!
Once i finished the call, i thought it may have been a one off so i dialled another number and then got someone to phone me while i was on the call and yet again the volume somehow dropped to a sensibly level.
Any ideas guys?
If only i could always have the volume like this, this handset would be perfect.
This also happens if your on the phone and get an SMS, HTC have admitted the volume problem is a "known issue" but there is so far no results of them having fixed it.

To me, the in call volume sounds a bit low even on full volume......maybe im just deaf!
i also got a problem with my hhd2 sound. while im in a call with my g/f and i lay down on my side while holding the phone, so its like its flat on the table after that it vibrates and goes to sppeaker phone?

Incall volume has always been a problem on this device and I think there is another thread related to this issue. It has been noticed that when you are on a call, the volume, evn though on the lowest level is usually way too loud and uncomfortable for the ears.
This might help you as it works for me: while on a call, I increase the volume to max and turn it back down to lowest level. you will straightaway notice that the volume has reduced cosiderably. This has been my "short term" solution until the issue is resolved. Hope that helps.

[Q] Nexus 4 in-call volume problem

I am having problems with the in-call volume of my Nexus 4. Say I have it at 4/5, it will remain at this for a while, however, it does not maintain this setting. When I answer a subsequent phone call, the in-call volume will have reset itself to 2/5. It is quite annoying answering a phone call, not hearing the person on the other side and then having to increase the volume again. I actually returned my 1st Nexus 4, however, this problem is now occurring on my replacement phone as well. Would anyone have any suggestions as to what might be causing this problem before I contact Google again. I have not made any adjustments to the OS of the Nexus 4. Thanks for any help!

I have Volume + installed from Google Play and it increases the volume considerably from the speaker, through bluetooth and headsets. If you try it go to settings/sounds/sound effects and choose Volume + instead of Music Fx. I`am using the paid version and it works great for me.

Thanks for your reply. Actual loudness of the phone is not a problem, when the highest in-call volume setting is maintained. However, the phone will randomly reset itself to the 2/5 setting. Over the weekend, I give the Volume + app a try. It has an individual setting for in-call volume, however, the problem still occurs. Do you think the problem is software related and therefore potentially could be rectified by the next major update to be released? I'am worried that I may have to try and return another phone to Google!
help!

Did you ever find the solution? I just got a Nexus 4 and have the same issue. I've been searching like crazy for a solution!

I forgot to say that even though is the same issue, in my case is the other way around. The volume resets to 5/5 even though I change it to 2/5 during a call. The 2/5 setting seems to last only some time but surely after a few hours, when I make or receive another phone call the volume has gone up to 5/5.
I have the same issue. The volume is always to the max. During the call I lower it, because it is too loud at the maximum, but during the next call, the volume is at maximum again. I tried several applications that adjust in-call volume, but it had no effect.

I believe we might have an application installed that's resetting the volume, would you mind sharing the applications you have via private message and then we can check which we have in common and go from there? If you agree I'll send you mine as well.
After several factory resets I finally found out what was the problem. Automatic Call Recorder has an option named Maximize recording volume (or something like that). When I turned off this, the problem was solved.

[Q] Blade S6 Call volume too low

Hi all,
Does anyone else have this problem, using ZTE's Android 5.02, in which the caller's voice level is too low? I can barely hear a person's voice when I answer/call them. But they clearly hear me.
I've tried a few apps that boost volume, but none of them work.
All other things, ringtone, apps, media, music etc. - the volume is fine.
ZTE had an auto update yesterday, system update, completely fixed the volume for me! Everything is normal and working well now
I have problem with wifi, can't connect! (IP adress = 0.0.0.0) plzzz help!!!

What update are you talking about? I'm also having the "low volume" issue.
thanks
edit: tried the b10 update again and still low volume. So pls help
I have the same problem. The in-call volume gets turned way down for some reason when you answer/make a call.
i don't know why, possibly a bug?
when you next make/receive a call...once connected, take the phone away from your ear & look at it.
press the volume up button and you'll see its at about 25%.
pain in the arse

Hi, turn off the "Dual microphone" setting in the dialer app. This solves the problem.
