Non native phone app - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

All of a sudden last week, I am getting no sound on my GS4 when making calls--no outbound or inbound sound and neither side can hear. The call is going through. Voice recorder and playback indicate that it is not a mic or speaker problem. I have hard reset the phone to no avail. Every now and then, it will allow me to make one call but then it goes out again.
My question here, other than if anyone knows how to fix this, is if there is another phone application instead of com.android.phone that I can install and use instead of the native phone app? Phone is rooted.

Switch to speakerphone automatically / programmatically

Does anyone know how to switch the Universal to speaker phone during a call without manually selecting it for each call via the normal phone app? I have tried doing it in code with phoneSetHookSwitch(..., PHONEHOOKSWITCHDEV_SPEAKER, PHONEHOOKSWITCHMODE_SPEAKER) which works OK while it is ringing, but it keeps turning the speaker back off again once the call is connected. My app is running all the time in semi-kiosk mode, so accessing the inbuilt phone app can be a problem.
Basically I want the machine to always use speakerphone. I'm sure I had this working before, with the call above. However I've been on other jobs for a few weeks, and the machine's been reset a few times, and now I can't get it to stay on speaker.

Calling but no ring?

Hello, does anyone experience this? You call someone and then it doesnt ring.. I tried like 3 people and it does the same thing.. eventually it disconnects...
this happens to me sometimes, eventually the other person on the line will hang up because im still thinking its trying to connect. i usually put it on speaker so i hear the ringing then turn it right back off. but yes, i do have this issue.
yes i have this issue with CM5b3....if you set it to speaker then back to regular it will work, im not sure if this is a CM issue or just a n1 issue....i also noticed it happens mainly when the call previous was on speaker phone when the call ended, seems to be a problem in the sound routing subsystem

Audio problems with phone calls

My focus is having audio issues when I make or receive phone calls. I can't hear the other person and they can't hear me. When I speak into the phone, the mic loops my voice back thru the phone headset. When I shutdown the phone, the first call made or recieved works perfectly but after that, it stops working. I have tried many codes to fix the audio and I have tried a soft and hard reset. I have tried everything I can. Has anyone else had this issue and knows how to fix it? Is this a case where the phone is just dead? Is there a way to reinstall the entire phone system? Everything else on the phones works perfectly. I love the phone and don't want to lose it.
I did have a similar problem if I am reading your post correctly. What happens is for some reason the phone can reroute the mic and through the speaker similar to speaker phone but doesn't function properly. The fix that I found is recalibrating the mic and speakerphone through the diagnosis app. I don't remember exactly what i did but I did fix it through the diagnosis app.
Go into your diagnosis app and test your speakers with a melody test make sure that they are all working.
*#0289# - Melody Test\Test External and Internal Speaker
I have gone in the diagnose program and tried many things and nothing seems to work. It seems that restarting the phone works but the second the first phone call is over, something happens and no other phone call can be heard and they can't hear me. I don't want to have to restart the phone everyy time I want to make a phone call. I am hoping someone can remember how they fixed this problem.

[Q] Cant make/answer calls mic and earpice works

Ok, this is my problem, I just got the phone, did a factory reset and then I put my SIM, it gets a good signal and 4G network, I installed all my apps and everything was great, but when I tried to make a test call it seems like the call ends, I only hear the first beep and the sound is gone (but the call is still going), I cant hear the other person, they also cant hear me, I've tried Groove IP and it works great, on the earpiece, headphones, etc. both mics work great, I cant get any sound when calling using the dialer, there is a beep and the earpiece sound is gone.
I also get the "Conditional call forwarding active" pop up.
Any insight on this? :crying:
Thanks

S7 Edge - Microphone not working in calls

Please help,
Samsung have returned my phone twice saying no fault found, but every time I make or receive a call there is no sound on the other end. The mic works for google search, video recording, voice recorder app etc, but as soon as I make a call no one can hear me at all. Any ideas welcome please before I end up selling it as faulty. Gutted and tearing my hair out!
Hey!
I have a similar issue with my S7. Microphone does not work only during the calls. Turning on speakerphone does not help (as it should when you have a broken bottom microphone) and also if I connect headset then the microphone from the headset works. In all other aps both (botom, top) microphones work (I do have stereo in video recording etc.). Did it happen to you after system update or when?
Cheers
A small update:
I have found that the issue is even more silly for me.
So I make a call and the person to whom I am calling cannot hear me. Then I connect a headphones, but ones without a microphone. And suddenly the microphone in the phone starts working. But the moment I disconnect them it stops.
Can you confirm this happening for you?
its old, but i have same problem. Now, I am trying to flash stock rom and see if it will work. After restart, I microphone works only once in call app, that it dont work. But i can record audio with it and in any other app it works. Idk what is the problem, but i want to find out
