If it makes you feel any better, this is a cross platform, cross ROM issue. I am having the same problem with a Samsung Galaxy Note 2, and I have seen the same problem reported on S3s, S4s, Droid Bionics, etc.
I keep looking to see if Google is providing an update, but no apparent response despite the growing chorus of complaints and reports.

I had this issue when I flashed the latest Paranoid Android alpha update and their new gapps.
I flashed previous gapps and updated everything and I'm good now.

I had this problem out of nowhere yesterday morning. I removed extensions, etc. Nothing had changed since it had worked the day before, other than their new "listen" rollout, or that pandora competitor.
It would immediately crash with an "aw, snap" every time, within a millisecond.
So I went here: support.google.com/googleplay/?rd=1#contact=1
and filled that out. Got the auto response email with some pat, boilerplate problem solving stuff.
But I didn't do ONE THING, and it fixed itself.
I have a hunch that they get receipt of that, and check your account and fix it behind the scenes. That's the only thing I can think of, because I didn't do a thing, and it stopped working.... and started working again after I didn't do a thing (other than try to remove extensions).....
that support troubleshooter may have done the trick. I am back up and running.

I had the same problem when upgrading to Play Music 5.0.something; what I did to overcome the FC's:
1. Clean cache Download Manager
2. Clean cache Play Music
3. Clean cache Media Storage
4. Reboot

I had the same problem and uninstalled updates to roll back to the prior version. Then on Friday, I saw the update pending and decided to try again. Somehow, it did indeed fix itself. However, what I notice now is that it likes to un in the background on its own from time to time -- enough that it seems to be interfering with battery life . . . .

Works fine for me, never had an issue. I don't use it though as I don't listen to music on my phone

[Q] No audio during call - Nexus 4 CM11

Hi,
I have a Nexus 4 running CM11.
I am not getting any audio during calls. In the earpiece or speaker. Music, notifications, Skype, etc are working fine.
Tried using Soundabout, but that did not make any difference.
Sometimes when I boot the phone, I am getting audio in the first 3-4 calls that I make. But when I close the dialer and open it again, I don't get any audio
Thanks in advance!!

I'm experiencing the same issue with my nexus4/CM11...
Not found the cause nor the solution yet :crying:

I just made an update from nightly 20141024 to 20141031 and this issue is still present.

Exactly the same problem on Nexus 4. Manifested in snapshot M11.

I've been having the same issue.
I'm trying different basebands now but still no luck.

I'm using CyanogenMod 11 11-20141009-UNOFFICIAL-mako with baseband 2.0.1.1701.03 and I don't have this issue.
Flash the latest radio, try a clean flash then try again. Stay with the stock CM kernel too !

I already have the latest baseband and I am using the official CM kernel. The issue started somewhere during last week's nightlies and it is very likely that even the upcoming M12 build has this issue on Nexus 4 devices.

Not a hardware problem
I wiped and flashed back to a factory 4.4.4 last night and the problem seems to be fixed. So at least we know it's not a hardware issue. I was also able to make calls through hangouts just fine.
I had already flashed the latest 1.03 radio as well as the original stock radio and most of the ones in between and that didn't work. Clearing data for the phone app didn't seem to do anything at all.
Try doing a clean install of the latest nightly or monthly and see if that works.
I bet that if you uninstall and reinstall the phone app that it would start working again.

I just created an issue on the bug tracker: https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/NIGHTLIES-324
If you have any additional information please add them to the issue to improve the chances of a fast bug-fix.

still working
I knew I couldn't stay on stock very long.
Flashed 20141102 and in call audio is still working.
Did anyone try a clean install of the latest nightly?

Try to reset only the telephone app (com.android.phone) and reboot.
Worked for me.
EDIT: Doesn't work anymore.

Downgrade to google play services v6.5.86 fixes incall audio for me.
Code:
adb install -r -d Downloads/com.google.android.gms.apk
3563 KB/s (29005798 bytes in 7.949s)
pkg: /data/local/tmp/com.google.android.gms.apk
Success

@ ivanich:
thanks, my solution doesn't work since the google play service update.
Another solution should be to install the gapps again, but I didn't try it.
Greetings

This has been an issue for some time.
The evidence leads us to believe that google play services is the culprit at this time. But why does it plague only the Nexus 4's running CM?
(25 OCT) - When this issue was identified initially. The issue can be temporarily resolved by disabling wifi and restarting the phone. With WIFI off the phone will make and receive calls for at least 2 day without regressing(i personally tested this) as soon as you turn on the wifi, 1 - 4 calls in the audio is gone.
(10 NOV) - Two weeks passed since the initial reporting and the issue went away, assuming because google play was updated. At this time I was able to make and receive calls normally for a week or two. Then out of the blue, no audio. I disabled wifi and rebooted, the audio was back. The difference this time was the phone kept working normally for another two weeks.
(12 DEC) The issue has resurfaced, assuming google play was updated again and we are back to experiencing the issue with the initial levels of severity.
It looks like Google Play Services 6.5.87 will cause the issue. 6.5.86 works fine. 6.5.88 is unknown, 1 report says it doesnt.

Actually I just installed 6.5.94 (over 6.5.87) and my in call audio is working, at least for now.

Reboot to recovery and clearing cache resolved issue for me.

Thanks,
turning wifi off helped.
How can I force google not to update the Google Play Services ?
It is not an regular app from the market.
I've tried to disallow all automatic updates, this doesn't help.

Clearing cache
Rebooting into recovery and formatting the cache partition worked for me as well.

Help needed.. Unable to run camera app, email app and the Internet app!

Hi, I am not sure if this issue has been discussed earlier or not as I couldn't find it in the forum. Any help on below issue will be much appreciated.
I am currently using Samsung S4 I9500 which was working perfectly fine about 2-3 weeks back. But right after factory resetting the phone, out of blue my phones front camera stopped working i.e. It freezes then closes every time I switch from back camera to front. Then the next day I go on to use stock Internet browser and stock email app on my phone and that too stopped working same as above freezes then closes on its own.
I have tried to google the same issue but so far have not run in to anything that could be of any help to me. Therefore please let me know as to what should I do and kindly use the most simplest form of words as I am practically a newbie who doesn't even know how to root and install custom rom even
Any help would be much appreciated and thank you in advance.

Video stops but audio still plays...s4

I have an s4 running a Google edition custom rom. It's 5.0.1 and has been just fine since I installed the from for maybe almost 2 months now. Recently it has developed a video problem where the video stops about a minute in but the audio still plays. This happens on the local player and streaming apps too. I have searched the web for answers and it seems many ppl have this issue and is not limited to s4 models. The only way to resolve it is a full wipe, but after a few days the problem comes back. Has anyone heard of this and what I can possibly do to stop it. I have tried clearing caches in all settings and gradually uninstalling recent apps but just can't get to the bottom of it. It's sooooooo annoying

Amazon Alexa app crashes in all custom ROMs I have tried

Amazon Alexa app crashes in all custom ROMs I have tried. I have tried clearing cache, uninstalling, etc, etc. but the same bad behavior remains. Runs fine if I revert to stock. Anyone else run into this?

Same here. I am on newest lineageOS.

Yep, that is my experience as well.
I use the alexa app on my stock tablet and have removed it from custom roms on my phone.
Haven't found a workaround yes but would appreciate one.

Works fine here on Dirty Unicorns on 3 devices and SAOSP on another.

Try turning off cellular data when trying to use the app. Any problems I have had with the Alexa app have been solved with this, doesn't seem to work well with it.

Will try that tonight. Thanks for the idea.
I will post my results.
At least I am not alone in this.

The regular pre conversations app works for me on all devices, however it does not when I add a phone number. Basically I have a problem with the new conversations. It starts to load I get all icons then a faint conversations label and then it crashes. I have tried almost all ROMs available for my moto x pure, no exaggeration. I am using DU at the moment and it does not work. Amazon thought it may be that I did not have an activated SIM card and had no data. So, I purchased and activated SIM card after having phone for almost 2 years and data does not help. Turning data off changes nothing for me as well. My sons phone is a samsung stock and his SIM card has never been activated but it works fine.
I also have been having troubles with TP-Link Kasa the most recent update is causing it to act the similar. It simply ignores my sign in. I have come to conclude their is a security validation check being used by amazon and tplink.

This kind sucks...I don't know why certain apps does this. Android was built on open source however I notice slowly they are closing Windows/doors.

Alexa app crashing solved for me!
Whenever I would hit the listen button the app would crash, if this is one of your symptoms try turning off notifications, it worked for me, found the answer in a post for Miui phones.

Ime using MaxiCM(CyanogenMod-Mod) on 5.1.1 and for me it crashed as soon as i logged in and it got Internet, using the App offline works fine but yea, no use for it.
