Ear-speaker sounds high pitched in calls issue - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello . I am long time follower of your forums but now i decide to make an account cause I got some troubles with my Note 5 .
I have a Note 5 model n920-c (Arab Emirates) but I live in Romania .My problem is that from time to time when I make or receive a call, the in-call sound from my ear-speaker is high-pitched almost screetching(but still manageable and understandable) ....
If I put the call on speaker the sound is normal...
This is happening to me only 2-3 times a day and it seems to happen only with calls made in my network(ORANGE RO)...In every other calls(whatsapp , facebook , skype) the ear-speaker sound levels are just normal...
Just to mention I also fave HD voice active for my network calls...
Its is a network provider issues ?Is it a hardware issues?Did some of you experienced such thing on your unit?
Happy to be a part of your forum from now on ! Looking forward for answers

Not even a tought? :crying:

Same problem here. Also n920c and also on orange ro. Problem apear when i call on orange and vodafone. And another problem today: while on lte i have full signal, i can call without problems but when someone tries to call me enter the voicemail. Switching to 3g solves the problem. Switching back to lte the problem reapears. Some ideas anyone? Thanks

[Q] Incoming / Outgoing call issue

Hi, i flashed from Hong Kong stock rom to other custom rom a few weeks
Everything seems great, signal or radio is ok
But while calling to others, the sound is too small.
Unless i turn to the largest volume....
And while someone calling, i answered, the dialer seems hearing me is delay 1-2 second at the first sentences.
Is there any kernal to produce these problems?
Sound problem when calling/receiving calls
Got such a problem that is pretty the same but no sound at all, even less... on cyanogenmod 10.1

In call sound problem

I have in call sound problems.
When I reboot I can sometimes place one call without problems for as long as I want.
Other calls after that I have no sound, can't hear the call tone and other parties can't hear me.
Also incoming calls, i hear the phone ring but when i answer the other party can't hear me and i can't hear the other party.
The settings for sounds in the accessibility menu and noise reduction etc were off and stayed off. (other forum tips)
I also tried numerous factory resets with no avail
Can someone give me a hint how to fix it?
I have stock 4.2.2 International version of the S4 Active.
Baseband I9295XXUBMK2
Build JDQ39.I9295XXUBMK2
Kernel 3.4.0-2015525
Headset
I tried a different option. I can call with my bluetooth headset.
When i switch to speaker the in call sound drops. giong back to headset will not activate in call sound.
Same Here
The same happens to me. Only the bluetooth option works every time. I have tried several firmware and kernel versions and nothing has changed.
There is a workaround that I could find but it is totally impractical: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2371034
In forums for models / ROMs with a lot more users than this one (Nexus / CM) people with 4.2.2-based firmware versions there are many posts describing what could seems to be the exact same problem, which they have been able to fix via baseband updates or custom patches, but that does not really seems to be an option for the S4 Active...

Same problem with my SGS4A. I was on i9295XXUBMK2, tried to update using the phone update option, which rendered my phone unusable. Flashed new stock ROM i9295XXUBMK3, now I can use the phone, although sound problem persists.
Making a call: reboot, call
Receiving a call: answer, hang-up, reboot, call back
Anyone with 4.3 that has this problem on SGS3, SGS4 or SGS4A?
Edit 21.8.2014
I had the speaker changed last week and so far no problems. I am slowly getting confident that I can rely on S4A as a phone also, not just tiny surf tablet.
I have same phone, never got this pb. However I got some SD card issues after updating to KitKat...
Partial solution... for me at least
Hi guys ,
having same issue, disabling 4G option solves my problem. But it-s impractic cause I want to use the 4g... in a huawei phone I solved same issue by disabling an option of "mobile data always on"
Don't know how it's related...
Same issue for me. I made lots of research with no results. Nobody knows...
same problem here with no solution yet

same problem with in call and out call .... searched a lot about solution and no solution yet
I had a similar issue with bluetooth calls. First call would be fine, but after that I couldn't hear the other person on the line and they couldn't hear me. It turned out to be some kind of incompatibility with the Google "OK Google" detection with Galaxy S4-based phones. If I disabled it from detecting "From any screen", this seemed to correct the problem. However the setting might return on application updates. I would recommend trying that and see if it makes a difference. If it's not that, then I don't really know how to help you. I moved on from that phone over a year ago and have been happier ever since.

Problem receiving calls

Hi, I’ve got a Samsung galaxy s3 mini and Orange hiro ( Alcatel one touch mini idol ) both purchased from orange .
When I receive a call from Hiro to S3, in some places the dialer/phone app shows person who is calling me but when I press to answer the app freezes and I do not hear anything and the other person can’t hear anything .
After this incident the S3 has no sound anywhere in any browser , youtube , music / video player as if it does not have a speaker. If I restart the S3 sound works again until the Hiro calls me.
Weird is that when I call the Hiro there is no problem.
After some investigation I discovered that if I switch on the GSM mode S3 I don’t have this problem and I can get calls from Hiro. As you know on gsm the network speed is a few kb compared to wcdma.
I also did some tests and when outdoors with WCDMA mode the problem does not occur.
Also if I set Hiro on GSM and mine on WCDMA/GSM or just WCDMA there is no problem with my phone.
Both phones weren’t rooted or other interventions that would void the warranty , their firmware is up to date.
I do not understand why the S3 is unable to perform a basic function.
I tried the 2 sim cards in other phones but there is no problem, the problem only occurs when Hiro phone calls mine.
So far I have tried:
Reset to factory.
Clearing data from Dialer/phone app.
What is frustrating is that sometimes the connection between two works fine but when it doesn’t my phone ends up disabled with no sound.
Thanks.
Update:
I sent the phone 4 times to warranty and got the motherboard+battery replaced, the problem persists. I don't know what to do anymore.

echoes on call

when i call somebody sometimes it does happen to hear my own voice upon the call is happening very often and i am getting annoyed by it ,is it cause i have it on 2g network ,also it is rooted with monxfied rom but it did happen sometimes and with original rom
phone is c6903
any solution recommended i will hear
Sometime happen to me too. It can be for some reason, speaker on of the phone the one who you calling or delay between the 2 phones so practically when you voice reach the other one you can hear a kind of echo. It's not a software related or even to the phone. I know it can be annoying so maybe you can improve the quality call on your phone settings, there can be some.

i have same issue and it happens quite often.
It's not 2G problem because it happens regardless on 3G, H+ or 4G LTE,
only way to solve that is to use headsets or reboot the device.
FYI, mine is unrooted, original rom/kernel and C6906
