[Q] Problems on .253

When someone makes a phone call to me and I try to answer it, the phone either "stutters" and keeps ringing until I push the power button and then on again to answer the call. Also even after answering the call, it vibrates one more time which I find very annoying.
Is it just me or do all XZs vibrate that loud? Vibrations are even more obvious than my ringtone lol.
Another thing is probably related to the hotspot Im using. I use Connectify Hotspot pro for wifi on XZ, it disconnects and becomes unavailable all the time so I have to restart my hotspot everytime.
Anyone else getting these too?

Either a faulty phone or corrupted firmware.

I've had problems like that with the black Xperia Z then traid it for the white one and now everything is good n perfect dont known,maybe the problems are in the first models that come out just saying maybev
Sent from my C6603

I had this problem with S, T and Z too. Different firmwares.
It's happening when using BT, when another party is calling, when i want to quickly answer etc.
On T for example i had to wait until the call was not answered.
But it's happening maybe twice/month.

Well thats just disappointing.

I dont have any problems with it.
And I'm using connectify too. Have you try flash your fw?

What this guy is sayin is definitely right,I agree with it bein a faulty phone. It could be the firmware though,reset your phone.

It turned out that my laptop could turn off lan adaptor to save battery, so the wifi connectivity is fine but the other problems are still there.

Or not lol... Wifi hotspot disappears all the freakin time when Im downloading something

Microphone only works during calls

Good afternoon,
I have had a Nokia 8 for a few weeks now and have now found that my microphone only works during calls. While I'm on the phone everything works normally but in all other apps nothing happens, e.g. in Whatsapp you only hear a short crack when you hear a voice message and then nothing, although you have said something (see attachment), also other apps that use the microphone like the Google Home App or a guitar vocal app don't work. Of course the permissions are set correctly for all apps but apparently this has no effect (see attachment). I've already written with Nokia Support, but after 14 mails about permissions, emptying caches and doing softresets they couldn't help me. Finally I was told to wait for the next Android update and hope that my problem was fixed there, or I should send my phone back to the dealer. My hope now is that one of you has an idea what could be the cause of the problem.
Thank you for your time!

Hello to everyone there,
I have next problem on my Nokia 8:
When somebody calls me or when I call someone on viber, I turn on speakers and other side can't hear me. Also when I put it on video call the same issue conitnuous to take. Regular GSM calls or viber VoIp calls works great as well as video calls with headphones.
I open ticket to a viber about this problem, and they told me I need to contact my manufacturer.
Yesterday I installed an Android pie from beta labs, but the problem still exists. How do you think the problem is hardware?

Hi ratola,
you can dial *#*#372733#*#* for a hidden FQC test menu, here you can test each mic seperated, i guess in your case it's the second mic in the top-speaker.

Hi Joeigel, unfortunately I have the same issue (and story regarding contacting support). The only way I can make calls via for instance WhatsApp is by using a handfree headset, or setting it to speaker-mode.
Waiting for the Android 9 release, if this isn't fixed with it, I'll send it in for warranty.
I do have another issue with the phone, and that's when I unlock my phone using the fingerprint scanner, 1 out of 4 times or so, the phone enables split screenmode. Do you (or someone else here) have similar experiences. It's quite annoying.

Update: Installed Pie, and no improvement. Issues still persists. Returning the phone today.

Sorry for the late response, my phone is also on it's way back to GB...

Ok, just got an update from the repair-center, they replaced a part and it should work OK now. Curious to see what they did and if it's resolved. Have to wait until it's shipped back. But keep us also posted about your progress
Off-topic: another issue I sometimes experience is when I unlock my phone with fingerprint, it sometimes switches automatically to the split-screen mode. It happens quite often and it's a bit annoying. Did you experience something similar with your Nokia?

I didn't experienced something like this. Did they send it back to you yet? Maybe they fixed both... ^^'

Microphone issue here too.
Internal mic on front facing camera is the culprit. I noticed a few weeks back that my 'ok google' hotwords were no longer working. This became a problem after I installed the december security patch. I rolled back to the november security patch and this did temporarily fix the issue, after I had gone through the initial setup of the phone, my 'ok google' hotwords worked, until i went to use the camera to see if the issue still existed... unfortunately it does. Contemplating rolling back to july to see if the issue is resolved, or trying to move forward and installing pie.

I've tried going up or down, I have oreo and pie on each of my A/B partitions and it does nothing. When i downgraded to oreo it worked for awhile but updating the google app or some sort of background service broke it again. Its definately mic 3 that has a fault, it has background interference noise when i do the test, it also occurs when recording video with the front facing mic on camera, the problem with the mic never goes away, after up/downgrading, I can't say whether this is related since it works prior to updating. rolling back/disabling doesn't solve the problem for the apps. Microphone/earpiece holes are clean and undamaged.

After further testing of this issue, the 'OK Google' issue is still present, if I want to ask google assistant 'ok google' the microphone barely picks up anything or even my question, practically screaming into the microphone is the only way to activate it, this matches with the results on my google activity, listening to my recordings of my queries shows evidence that the microphone sensitivity is way too low.
HOWEVER, when using google assistant by means of pressing the microphone and then asking the question, the result is clear and understandable and doesn't suffer from volume issues, I can't pinpoint if this is an issue with the Nokia specifically, it is not a problem with any other application that uses the microphone.

Having the same issue with Mic 3. It means I can't use it in speakerphone mode during calls or in Skype. It doesn't prevent me from using the Google assistant though.

My smartphone was sent in and repaired (complete motorboard replaced). During the time it was gone Android 9 came out, so I'm not sure if it was the repair or the software update.
But it works again without any problems
Kind regards
Joeigel

frequent call issues since 9.0 update

Hi Guys,
Ever since me and my wife updated to 9.0, we have been having issues with calling. Caller on the other side cannot hear unless we reboot the phone. Never had this issue during oreo. It's kind of strange that both of us are having the same issue.
This will happen 2-3 days or sometimes a week after reboot out of nowhere. Unless I reboot, other person cannot hear. However whatsapp calling works. it's definitely not a mic problem. Anyone has the same issue or know how to trouble shoot? To reset the phone is one option. I have disabled all apps that Huawei automatically kills due to their stupid battery saving feature. But it hasn't really helped.
Any idea?

Same issue here and its annoying as hell but no fix found yet but ur not alone lol

I've had this also. I hang up and redial, usually works second time round. But the issue is very intermittent.

Could it be a VoWiFi issue?

Question [CLOSED] Echo for callers Xiaomi Mi 11

Hi, when people call me by phone, WhatsApp or elsewhere hear its own voice very clear like they talking to themselves. Very clear echoing. Even I lower my speaker they continue to hear themselves. Like the sound from speaker goes straight to the microphone. When I use a Bluetooth headset everything fine. May the problem be with my Xiaomi's noise cancellation. Or the update to MIUI 13 may cause it, because it started recently after it. Any advices? Xiaomi MI 11

don't call in a cave!

yeah actually it's very funny for people calling me, they feel like I've got a parrot

Have you activate "Ok Google", if yes disable it, and try again.

Yes deactivated it, this solution was on the net as well as recording during calls also cleaned the microphone, I have searched and done everything what found online but didn't help. Writing here was my last work
I am big Xiaomi fan, also have Mi 11i, Poco F3 at the moment don't have any problems with them. Last 5 years I use only Xiaomi phones first time met a problem

Whilst waiting echo problem solving, I met a new problem. my Xiaomi MI 11's WiFi stopped working. Not switching on and no device identification for Wireless network.
What a joke. Exactly 1 year warranty past. After buying nearly 10 Xiaom devices(me and family) first time I left very disappointed and will try to avoid them in future.

在等待回声问题解决时，我遇到了一个新问题。我的小米 MI 11 的 WiFi 停止工作。没有打开无线网络，也没有设备识别。
真是笑话。正好1年保修过去。第一次购买了近 10 台小米设备（我和家人）后，我非常失望，以后会尽量避免使用它们。

I've had this happen to me as well, and it's also out of the one-year warranty. However, this situation is very common in China, so you can apply for a six-month extended warranty service and replace the machine for free. It's a motherboard design problem, caused by empty CPU soldering.

Thank you for the useful information yiyinglaohu! This answer made me happy because at least I got real answer I already said goodbye to the phone.

Hi, I didn't find solution. As I realized it's a serious hardware problem. It's working on mobile data normal but no wifi connection, sometimes when the phone heats wifi appears until getting cold

What about the echo problem? I am actually struggling with that

Did everything on the forums related with google assistant, full reset and other things. Didn't resolve it.
When works with headphones or Bluetooth headset no echo but when speaking with the phone speaker very clear echo for the callers. I assume echo problem is hardware related as well, the noise cancelling mic doesn't work. Couldn't resolve it either and in 1 month the WiFi disappeared maybe they are related.

My reply is up, sorry I am losing orientation in this app

Same i did everything said in the forums but still the same issue, when i lower the volume to almost the minimum the other person doesnt hear the echo. Using blutooth also there is no echo.
I'll flash a custom rom and see if it solves it, if it doesn't the it's definietly a hardware issue.

Question Microphone not working sometimes when in a call.

I have a problem with my new 11t pro. Stock Rom MiUI 12.5 purchased in Viet Nam, debloat some app (all in suggested app to debloat). I've use this phone for 2 weeks, and sometimes when im making a call, the other side cannot hear me at all, and i can hear them. This occurs occasionally, i think about 1/15 calls i make. This only happen when i was the one calling, receiving calls is totally fine. I've tried turn off "Hey google", no use. Tried "True phone" dialer instead of Phone by Google, it happens less but still there. Please help!

Try resetting the phone and reinstalling the rom like that you will be sure it is not a software problem.

Im doing a Factory reset first without debloating to see how it goes, only been 1 day but so far so good.

The proximity sensor is one of the weakest point of the phone.
During call the screen used to turn on and unfortunately the mute button is the first what I used the press with my ear..., so the microphone get muted.
I seen many people reported the same issue.
Check it before making hard reset!
