wtf?
so... not only is your ringtone playing, but the speaker is also broadcasting your wife whistling? this not only seems improbable, but damn near impossible.
what ROM are you running?
EDIT: and what radio version are you running (listed beside the "R" when you first boot your phone)
Hahaha whoa, imagine if you didnt want to talk with her. Sorry but ya what Craigor said, and what company are you with?
That's happened on one occasion for me. I could hear the other person talking to someone else, then I answered.
The only problem in my case was that it signaled something was very unhappy in the phone. Programs took ages to launch and the data connection died. Had to hard reset the phone to get back to normal. No more voices during rings though.
ya, the tone plays and i can hear whoever is calling.(if theyre talking, or making any noise)
the radio is 3.42.30
and its nfsfan's v14 6.5 rom if that matters.
my company is verizon.
also, vibrate never works while in vibrate mode for texts, calls, or anything.
also if i have to reflash again, can i loose my akey again?
thanks

Man, that's so weird.
I dunno about losing your akey. You shouldn't have to reflash, I would just do a PIMBackup (included in NFSFAN's ROM) to backup your contacts/texts/etc and do a hard reset. If that fails, then maybe reflash, or ask NFSFAN about it.
Anyone have any other ideas?
ya, i may have to, but last time i restored a back-up, the last 5 texts i sent to anyone all got resent at 2am. people were not pleased!
but that was restoring from a backup on my old 6700, so maybe it won't happen.
thanks
Dont worry the same thing happens to me, I can hear some people talk while the phone is ringing......crazy huh

Well i can tell you off the bat that the only radio that has worked for me without any problems is the stock verizon 3.37.78. Try flashing to that, as far as getting a new akey you might have to, but its not that difficult. i just call verizon, give them my info, tell them i cant make calls, they fix it. And your Rom is fine, i'm actually using NFSFAN's v14 rom myself. And for the PIM Backup, my advice is to not backup your texts, i've heard people have had problems with that in 6.5, i only back up my call logs, contacts, and appointments...

This has happened to me a few times both with my Touch and also when I had my Titan. I determined that it was not ROM specific or radio specific. I have cricket so I don't think it's carrier specific. My only thoughts are a bluetooth issue, I use a LG bluetooth and that is the only time it happens to me.
when i was running the stock sprint rom mine would do it also. when i answerd the phone i would make a comment about what they were talking about. it freaked a few people out an they thought i was watching them. i thought it was kinda funny
This happens to me on my Sprint Touch routinely. It happened when my Touch was new out of the box and is happening with my 3 month old replacement. I've gotten used to it.
Happens to me all the time... kind of cool.
Seems to be a WinMo thing. I've had it happen a lot with my Sprint Touch and Touch Pro so far. Haven't had my Touch Pro 2 long enough to hear it happen with it.
It happens to me and I hate it. Happens on my old touch, my wifes touch and not my touch pro2. I have been working with sprint and they can not seem to fix the problem. it is annoying when my sister calls with her kids yelling in the background and when playing through the speaker phone is crazy loud.
id love to be able to get my fone to do this
I have not experienced the problem in a long time. I changed dialers and made some registry edits for caller ID to announce through the bluetooth. Since then it has not happened.
my opinion and conclusion:
The problem is with Microsoft and HTC. It could be a timebomb planted into the phone to cause problems after a certain time to promote purchasing a newer model. Who knows!
I think it has to do with the dialer or blue tooth.

htc desire
for me it is everytime i get a call. there is only one condition: phone cannot be locked.
my phone is HTC desire...
I just found this thread on google looking for an answer to this "issue." I guess I'm just glad that it's happening to other people, because the first time it happened it freaked me out.
I'm on a Sprint Evo - Android "Froyo" operating system. Seems to happen (the only time I've noticed it, anyway) only when one family calls me. What I mean by that is that I have friends that have a family plan, and whenever one of that "family" of phones calls me I can hear them talking while the phone rings. So strange..
Just thought I'd ask, I've upgraded to the latest Maintenance Release 1.56 and I am still loosing SMS messages. I don't get very many compared to most people, but today someone sent me a multi-part messages. I got parts (1/3) and (2/3) but never got (3/3) this is the same type of issue I was experiencing before the upgrade too.
I was curious is anyone else having these issues? The MR mentioned that it fixed an issue where SMS were not received due to FULL memory but I seriously don't that my phone memory is full, unless it's referring to more of a buffer, in which case it's apparently still not fixed.
Thanks
I had my phone off for about 1.5 hours while testing fresh rom 0.5 and received 13 texts when I turned it back on. None were missed.
no problems here

Yes I guess it is early I've fixed it now perhaps you could contribute your input on whether your getting all your txts? Thx!
I just had a friend send me a "long" 3 part txt all it send each part he ended with "END 1" "END 2" "END 3" based on character count. I only got parts 1 and 2.
Hah, sorry for being harsh.
Anyway, I haven't had any SMS problems both before and after the update. I've a friend in another state who has, however, and I believe after the update things were fixed.
Biggest plus in the update (and why I went through the hassle of leaving MoDaCo for Fresh) is the stereo sound output. I cant believe I didn't notice it was only sending mono sound.

That was a pretty jerk comment... especially considering you yourself had a typo in your response. Keep it civil please.
Hey all,
Within the HD2 when you send and receive messages from people with different timezones ordinarily I might expect that it would use the old users time and show me that the reply was say +3 hours, whereas actually it was a few minutes ago.
However it appears that when it orders the messages it takes your local time always, so you can get the situation:
Me: 4.40pm
Reply: 4.45pm (7.45pm users time)
Me: 4.50pm
Reply: 4.55pm (7.55pm users time)
So the message thread becomes:
Me
Me
Reply
Reply
So it becomes completely out of sync and is actually really useless, is there a fix or something I am missing in regards to this?
Thanks!
I have the problem of mine being time stamped 3 minutes earlier than when I got them so when it should be:
Me
Reply
Me
Reply
it becomes

Me

Me
Seems like they've really screwed up the whole conversational messaging thing
I've not been able to fix mine yet
Yes this is a really annoying issue and keeps happening, is there anyway or any fix that is forthcoming for this?
It will mean that threaded messaging just wont work properly with this phone.
SMS Timing
What cell company do you all have? I've noticed other post about this, and I have had the same issue. The common carrier is T-Mobile. My Girlfriend is having the same issue, and she is on T-Mobile with a Touch HD. I am running a Touch HD2, so it's not the phone. I recently flashed the new official ROM 1.403.405.1 (70124). Since then my problem has gone away and not using the SMStimefix.cab file that is out there available (it didn't work).
Hope this helps

Hey,
Yes I am on T-Mobile, its not something I have experienced in the past with a carrier (O2, Orange). So I guess T-Mobile do / dont do something that other carriers do which cause this.
I'll try to look into the SMStimefix to see if it does work or such like. So do other people on O2, Vodafone not have this issue?
i had this problem.... tooo
it really terrbile as i wont able to know which is my sms with his reply
Just a quick question for you guys. When I receive a phone call (full signal strength) and slide the slider accross to answer the phone there is a long pause of silence before the call actually connects. Has anyone else run into this situation?
Nexus One running stock Froyo (At&t)
yes I have this issue: I answer and cannot get an answer on the other end but I can hear them saying "hello". After a few seconds we connect and they say they never heard me say anything even though I was saying hello back.
I have two Nexus Ones: one answers calls perfectly and has great sound quality, while the other has this issue you describe, along with low call volume.
I think in my case it may be a hardware issue and I may need to send it in to be looked at. Both running on ATT although the good device is the tmobile version and the problem device is ATT 3G version.

You think it is a hardware issue? I thought that it was like that across all N1s?
There was a thread here 1-2 weeks ago about the issue and pretty much EVERYBODY had this problem.
I can't find the thread anymore but it was about the delay between answering a call and the mic becoming active ... which takes 2-5 seconds.
I just noticed the other day that the delay seems to be less if I immediately put the call on speaker.
Never encountered that issue. The other side hears me immediately as I answer. I guess this is not "across all N1s", unless someone would think my N1 is special in some way (which it isn't, and so are all the other 7 N1s of my friends at work which also happen not to have this problem - and the call quality is great on at least 3 that I checked personally).
Instantly connects on my phone as well, so it's not on all devices at least. I have one of the first batches of T-Mobile N1's btw.
What carrier are you on?
this happens to me too.its so annoying. im on att
Can't find the thread but it was pretty long.

I'm not so sure anymore. I decided since my only choice was to send it in for repair, I might as well one click root and install CM6 and see what happens. So far, I have not had the issue. It's only been three days but that's the longest this device has ever gone without having the "no connect" issue. Also, my low call volume and speaker phone volume issues are now resolved. I now find myself turning the volume down rather than up. I'll update this thread with final verdict on whether this fixes my issue.
This sounds like an att problem not a nrsux one problem
I notice this problem as well. If I wait until the call timer appears on screen before I start to talk the other party doesn't seem to notice.
I'm on T MO and never had this issue. Try the one click root and flash a different ROM. If it doesn't work send it to HTC. I recently sent mine back on a Monday and it was back that Friday.
Sent from my Nexus One
Well my issue has been resolved by switching to CM6. It's been a week now and the issue has not occurred even one time. This was an issue that used to happen to me EVERY DAY, so I am very happy that in my case it turned out to be a software issue.
When I was running 2.1 I hoped 2.2 would fix it and when it didn't I thought for sure it must be hardware. It's so nice to KNOW I can answer the phone if it rings now. Sometimes I would get an important call and I was afraid to answer the damn phone!
Thank you Mr. Cyanogen, whoever you are.
I get this issue once in a while. I think its a software issue. Over time something gets hung up somewhere.
I had a thread like this as well..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=691399
For me it still happens randomly, stock 2.1 rom, stock 2.2 rom, Enom's ROM, etc...
Although I have a theory that I haven't tried to prove/disprove yet.. It seems like several times when this has happened I was holding my finger over the second mic on the back, which is naturually where my finger seems to lay when I hold the phone. Anyone else considered this? I'm thinking maybe it's throwing off the microphone trying to do noise cancellation?

Definitely not the finger covering the mic. Just tried it with/without and same result.
There was another thread that was at least 3-4 pages of people complaining about it.
Sounds more like a network issue than a hardware issue, IMO
This issue has come up recently for me and it's really annoying. I'm not sure what triggered this problem...
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any ideas on how to resolve?
I've got the Rogers/AT&T N1.
Hello to all of you,
I am new the forum and I got my Omnia 7 just about 2 weeks ago. I really like it because of the excellent screen and build quality.
I also like the smooth and sleek feeling of Windows Phone 7.
However, I had regular issues during calls.
During about a third of my calls (including incoming and outgoing calls), I was not able to hear anything at some point during the conversation. The person called or the person who called me could also not hear me anymore.
The phone seems to work (no freeze) and the signal was ok. Turning the speaker on did not help.
Moreover, when I stopped calling and called back everything was fine and working again.
Sometimes it happened already when I picked up a call, sometimes after just a few words and sometimes in the middle of a longer conversation.
It seems to be random but regular, since about one out of three of my calls was interrupted.
It is really annoying and the phone is therefore going back.
However, I really liked the Omnia 7 and I would get another one, if the unit I got was just faulty.
So I would like to ask other Omnia 7 users if you have experienced a similar behavior of your Omnias during calls? Was my unit faulty or is it a general issue?
I would appreciate your feedback.
Thank you in advance.
Does really no one want to comment about how his Omnia 7 handles calls?
I would really appreciate your feedback, even simply stating your Omnia 7 works fine without any mic ans speaker issue.
I thus just added a poll to the thread, so that it becomes even easier to give some feedback.
Thanks in advance for your input.
Same with me on my Omnia 7 - A1 Telekom Austria
Spoke to Samsung but they were not able to help me out but sending me a contact info to a service partner (Extreme Communication in Vienna, btw)
Service Partner told me that there are issues with the Omnia 7 (amplitude control) and I should send my device to them...
As were are having the same troubles on approx 20 devices (95% of handed out devices) I have to check if repairing is an option (warranty from our provider)
will post later, if I have my device back...
No problems here, I've had an Omnia7 16GB since early February. It was unbranded about a week after I received it. No one I've heard of has had such issues but one who complains of "modem-like" sounds for him and the other part prior to missing a call. He also reported this happening every third time or so...

count me in...
having modem-sounds (or robot sounds) as well
and it's not only me - my co-workers have the same issues
but there are more issues:
it's annoying that my Omnia 7 (8gb version) is hardly able to receive calls at the first time (approx 75% of the incoming calls) - if I call back, most of the time it seems to be ok
these problems do not only affect my device, but about 95% of Omnia 7 we handed out to our co-workers
I had the chance to test a HTC 7 Trophy - none of the errors I have on my Omnia happened on the Trophy!
I have the same issue, using T-mobile in the netherlands, I just always assumed it was them.
I've noticed this only happens on 3G and 3G+ networks, if i turn off data and use the normal G network, I don't get call problems, which why I assumed it was t-mobile.
I'm having the same issue on most of my calls. In the beginning I thought it was a network issue. Haven't been able to figure out how to fix it so far. Will call Samsung support.
Has anyone here updated their ROM to the latest XENJK from samfirmwares.com? I had issues with the mic going silent during calls til I upgraded to that

Thanks for your comments so far...
At least I am not alone with this issue...
I am now really wondering if this could be a software/ROM/firmware issue given Blade0rz comment...
How can I check the firmware/ROM on the Omnia 7?...my Omnia 7 is unbranded from Germany and the "About" section in the settings of my Omnia 7 does not give any info on a build or version number...does anyone know?
@simon marktl:thanks for your feedback...actually 19 faulty units out of 20 sounds quite bad...I would be pleased if you could let us know if the service point could resolve the issue and especially how they did it once you get your device back...
@eqzgkxokwa: I would be pleased if you could let us know about the solution proposed by the Samsung support...thanks (by the way eqzgkxokwa, that´s a tricky nickname )
@ Phyx and leoms17: I actually use the 2G network 99.9% of the time...but as explained I have the issue regularly....so it is not limited to 3G or 3G+...but if 3G off helps for you it just makes the issue even more curious...I do not think it is due to the network, rather something is going on with the phone...
in diagnostic screen hit *#1234# you'll get all your info. Firmware ending in JK1 is the latest.
Thanks leoms17...I may sound stupid but how do I actually get in the "diagnostic screen"?...I did not find it in the menu, so I assume there is some trick...actually I do not want to brick the phone or do something wrong...
Is there no possibility to get a simple info about the firmware without using a crazy code?
also have this issue, assumed it was a poor signal or something like the death grip. Does not seem to make a difference whether im being called or place the call myself.
I got it several times, suddenly it just goes silent. Holding the phone away from the ear so the diplsay turns on seems to make it work again but not for very long.
I had the original T-mobile Germany branded firmware I8700DTMJJ6, updated to JK1 yesterday, but did not test if its fixed now.
One final idea would be to play around with the volume settings in diag mode, increasing volume for incoming calls or something.
Btw, did anyone notice that there is absolutely no background noise during a call, even if the person is in a noisy environment?

I've had this issue with my Omnia 7 (T-Mobile US) as well. There were a couple instances where I answered a call and was not able to hear the person on the other end.

I had this issues with the original firmware from my provider (I8700XXJJ3)
and I still have them with
Phone I8700XXJK1
PDA I8700XXJK1
CSC I8700XENJK1
Software on Phone itself is 7.0.7008.0, no NoDo available yet
Maybe the new firmware I8700XXKA1 (January) helps out - but I wasn't able to download it anywhere
Same issues here
I have issues with both modem/robot-calls but lately it's gone from 1/3 of the calls beeing robot to 3/4 of the calls loosing all sound after 20-60 seconds. Robotic cals are not as common. For me I have problem only when I receive calls and never when I make the call.
I have had my Omnia in for service a month ago but the short message from them was that they found no problems. They upgraded the firmware to the latest version but I still have issues as stated above.
My radio hardware version is
0.0.0.2
I have seen posts where radio hardware is much higher. Can the problem be related to old radio hardware?
I am hoping nodo and new firmware from Samsung will fix this but so far I havn't got it.
