Hey guys,
so recently I rooted my 2-week old Incredible S, and I installed Cyanogen on the phone. Everything works flawlessly, except for the fact I can't hear or talk when I or someone else makes a call, it's just awkardly quiet.
I can make the call though, but the clock keeps on ticking without me hearing something. All sound is on maximum and speaker-mode doesn't help either. Nor do I block the microphone or anything like that.
I tried everything like removing battery, SIM-card but even a factory reset didn't work. When I call with Skype it does work, I can talk and hear. Other applications that use sound or voice also work.
Does anybody have any advice?

Since CM7.1 is a Gingerbread ROM, you now need to flash a Gingerbread radio, too.
So that's it? Oh god, I'm relieved! I already spent hours and hours on the internet searching for some bug or faulty app.
Thanks for the fast reply!
Hm, so I finished installing a new Gingerbread radio on the phone by using some of the links on this page. Now I can't connect to any service or mobile provider.
Am I doing something wrong again? I already tried almost all of those gingerbread radio's.
EDIT: It seems like the problem fixed itself. All that was needed was a simple reboot, and now my connection is way better than before.
I'm glad it's finally working now!

When you first set up CM 7, which service provider did you pick? Have you tried running the CM 7 setup again or do a system reset to force CM 7 to go through the setup again?
Is this a branded IncS and if so, which carrier?

Allow me to introduce you to my friends the comma (,) and the period (.).
Yikes...
sorry, was in a hurry
sorry was in a hurry when i typed this.
Now,
let me introduce to you the "Shift" key; sandwiched conveniently on both left & right sides of your keyboard!
Back to the issue,
I'd attempt a complete 100% wipe, including going back to past FW that you didn't have issues with and go from there. Alas, I'm not quite knowledgeable in this particular aspect of the G1.
Lets just hope you aren't missing a particularly urgent phone call.
Ok, Other than my grammar.
I got thedude 1.5 cupcake running.
My issue is my sister-inlaw has verizon and is unable to connect to me.
She gets no ring but I do; Then I am able to hear her but not vise-versa!!!
I didn't think my Grammar mattered when i was having an issue and wanted to get my post up ASAP so #@$% you very much for the help!!!
Sounds like a network-network issue rather than your phone being rooted. Were you able to talk to your sister-in-law fine before you rooted your phone (if you even did)?
network to network
Yes up till I flashed the radio I had no problems. After flashing I have many connection issues mostly with incoming calls. I have no problem calling back who ever calls me; Just
With incoming as far as I can tell. I know the network is flawed but i'd like to have the incoming working again. As of this post I'm running the dudes cupcake 1.0 themed with ba class 6 8 gig with 7000 m split ext2 rest apps to sds and 188 apps and latest radio via jf updater. Thx for the help.

Use the NBH file.
NBH
I've used rc29 NBH. The one to root, not sure what other one to get or use.
I've also fladhed the radio back with the jf 33 radio file. Still no luck! No incoming calls, people who call don't hear a ring but I do I try to answer and I can hear them but they can't here me or anything. I love my phone but would like to use it for calls! Thx
unroot your phone and talk to t-mo about it. when i first read the issue it seemed like it was only one person who couldn't hear you so i would have said their phone sucked, but if no one can here you then the odds of everyone else's phone sucking is pretty slim. try unrooting to see if it helps. also did you check the baseband ounder "about phone" after each radio flash? might have a problem there.
p.s. to those worried about capitalization screw off, but for future reference commas and periods are good
I am currently abroad in London. I have unlocked my Captivate to work on a local network, Orange, with a pay as you go plan. Recently when 2.2 was released I used Kies Mini to upgrade, it went fine. However, now I can't use the phone for calls!
When I make or receive a call, its as if the phone is muted. I can't hear a thing, not static, ringing, or the other person when then answer (yes the calls go through), and they can't hear me either. It's very strange. However, I have tested both the mic and internal and external speakers with other apps and they work fine.
I have tried downgrading and re-upgrading and even doing a reset with Odin but it does not help. Strangely enough, when I first upgraded calling worked off and on (1 working call for every 3 silent calls) for about a week, then stopped alltogether.
Any suggestions? I really need this fixed fast. Could this be a SIM card issue?
Hi, I had the same issue, and it was with an Orange prepaid sim card. I unlocked my phone prior to the trip, and I had the same thing with every other call had no audio whatsoever but the SMS still worked. I wonder if somebody had a custom rom that worked fine with Orange

Yeah exactly SMS works just fine. Well that sucks, what a strange issue! I wonder if there's some sort of fix for this?
Surely somebody else is using an unlocked Captivate with those pesky Orange pay as you go....
I can't say it'd be a fix or anything, but on some roms, I sometimes have to enable speakerphone, and then disable it. I doubt it'd be a fix for your issue, but it's worth a try

OP did you try that? That would be too easy if it was it. I flashed my phone to a new ROM but I cannot try it until my brother sends me the international Orange sim
Dear XDA users!
Please help me to solve the above problem. I have a brand new Galaxy Mini and the problem is:
- if i make a call no one can hear me, and i can't hear anybody
- if i have an incoming call, it's the same
- after that events all audio on the phone are muted (plus strange that the camera stops working too)
So if I don't make a call or haven't got incoming calls everything is all right. I can hear the dialing tones, the clicks, when i'm clicking on icons and so on.
Now I put back the original stock T-Mobile HUN 2.3.4 firmware (S5570XWKQ5). Nothing changed. When a call started everything go wrong.
The device is SIM unlocked with BML5 method. Before this actual stock rom I replaced the stock with CM9 using CWM.
I tried many custom roms, the problem still exists. And as I said it exists on the stock rom.
I'm totally lost with this thing, i can't use my new phone. Did I do something wrong? I can't believe it's hardware fault. But no success on stock, custom, etc...
Thanks!
Edit:
Forgot to mention, at first on the stock rom, I was trying to SIM unlock with this code: *2767*3855#
Don't know if it matters.
Anyone?
Tried different kernels, different radio ROM, different android versions. Nothing changed...
Is it hardware fault or related to something else?
!!!SOLVED!!!
If anyone interested:
I've pulled out the battery for 5 minutes and this sound misery gone away.
Really lame that i forgot to do that so far.
!!!SOLVED!!!
I can only make phonecalls through my bluetooth headset. If I switch bluetooth of and try to make a phonecall with the receiver, speakerphone or cable headset there is no sound. The cable headset and speaker plays all other sounds ok and when testing the receiver with *#0*# it produces sound. I do not have any obscure call recording software or like installed. Running stock rom.
Any suggestions?

This seems to be exactly the same issue that I am having and that was described on this older thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544300 [In call sound problem]
did you guys had this problem when the device was not rooted? becasue untill I rooted mine everything was OK. after root probelm occured. I am going to stock original rom and unroot mine a I wonder if it makes any sense.. I hope it does because I am getting desperate... If that will not work I will returnt go on warranty.
I did a repair through KIES and that fixed it for a few weeks but then it returned. My device wasn't rooted. Now I'm waiting for a good stock ROM without Samsung's bloatware to flash to.

did you try to contact samsung support ? or warranty? This phone is otherwise useless for me without its basic functionality.. if it has this bug also on stock ROM that its Samsung problem hm?
I've had my S4A since July, rooted it within a week and have not had a single problem with it. I'm on MF3 if that makes a difference.
strange.. I cannot find such ROM here.. http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9295

I have had the problem both unrooted and rooted. Although it sometimes disappeared after a hard reset, it soon came back after installing a few apps and changing some settings, none of which have in principle anything to do with phone functionality. One option would be to make a call after each change but it would be a very long process...
sorry matelko was signed by accident my computer under my account.
Hi,
so now running on stock ROM and still the same problem. I can make only make bluetooth calls. This phone is driving me crazy... can you please share with me the MF3 ROm so that I can test it?
Thank you

Thanx
So, yesterday I have tried to put sim card from another provider to check if it is not a provider fault...and guess what.. the phone works normally with another providers sim card. I contacted my procider and reported this problem and now I am waiting for their feedback... hopefully they will find out something to make it work..

Hi, does anybody has a Fix for this issue? It is getting really annoying and happening to a bunch of people in active S4 and the normal S4. After a new flash or sometimes randomly it works perfectly and then suddenly it goes silent on calls again.
Please help
Exactly the same problem. No problem until I started using my helmet's bluetooth. Only thing that works is to switch off bluetooth after using, restart phone and then about the 3rd 4th call, sound comes back on again. Comes and goes after that.

Same problem with sound. Was from the very beginning with stock rom, also now with CM 10.2.
It's kinda annoying to have a phone without a proper call functionality..
Same problem
Has anyone found a fix to this?
I've been having this for about two weeks. and I've looked in almost every forum and could not a solution that works.
I've done everything from hard reset, factory reset, not installing viber/skype, tried using soundabout, change the network settings, and probably a few more suggested solutions that just doesn't seem to work.
any help is much appreciated.
So my microphone seems to not be activated for periods of time, and I can't figure out what causes it, or really even how to fix it.
For example, today at work I was able to make calls for several hours, but after getting off I made a couple more calls that failed because the other party couldn't hear me.
Sometimes I can start Google Now voice search with a 'google', but after I make one voice entry, I can't make another one, and the next time I manually press the voice key it won't pick up any sounds at all. Even Shazam has problems with the mic sometimes, showing no equalizer bars whatsoever.
I thought this was a hardware issue because I thought it started one day (about the 3rd day I'd had it) after I dunked the phone in the sink, but in the diagnostics app the mic seems to do fine.
Is anyone else having this issue? It's really starting to get on my nerves. I guess a factory reset is in order?
I'm also having trouble finding any consolidated info on this issue; threads seem to trail off without any clear solutions.
hey,
im having some problems withthe mic as well, the other party cannot here me here and there and Ive read some forums that it might be software. also there was a solution on installing different home program and not use xperias Launcher. so hope this will help till KIT KAT is here

I'm having the same issue. Didn't see an answer here so I looked on the Sony product support website, and there a few suggestions were made:
- use a factory SIM, not a scissor-cut SIM card
- update the firmware to the latest version
- turn off "Microphone noise suppression."
link to the sonymobile website where I got this info - http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1/Microphone-issue-Xperia-Z1/m-p/450153/highlight/true#M6457
Time will tell if this worked for me. Let me know if you found a solution, or if this worked for you?

Good chance here to solve the problem. You can perform a factory reset after update as well or even now, this process sometime fix small issues.
is there any way to change from primary mic to make secondary mic use in calls? Like some build.prop tweak?

In build.prob there is no way to do that. To switch them I think you have to hack the kernel. Hacking kernel can be done on Custom one and for all this you have to have Unlocked Bootloader. Who can hack a kernel, just a Master.
Thanks for answer. I am on CM11 right now and custom kernel so it can be made if someone know what to change in kernel
