Microphone not activated for 1-2 seconds after answering a call?

Has anyone experienced this problem on the RAZR i (but possibly not realised it or thought it was just occasional) with regards to people phoning you, you saying hello and them clearly not hearing you as they don't respond. Only when you say 'hello' again is it quite clear they didn't hear anything at first as they don't act surprised or confused.
It must be 1-2 seconds or so at most, but it's quite annoying and seems to be happening every time I answer. This makes me suspect it's the phone, not the network (Orange/EE if anyone cares).
I thought it might just be the person at the other end not listening, but I've since asked people who didn't respond if they heard my first hello and they say no - so it's as if the mic isn't activated straight away.
Before I report it as a bug to Motorola, I really want to know if anyone else has suffered the same problem?

So you know, my phone is;
81.5.31002.XT890.Retail.en.GB

I have exactly the same problem, but on my 2 years old Desire, and I've only had it since I installed the latest version of a custom ROM, so there is a very big possibility, that it's just a software bug. But I agree, it gets annoying as hell, so it would be great for as many people with this problem to let Motorola know about it, so they fix it as soon as possible.
Can't wait to get my hands on this beauty, by the way!

Mine is fine. Done a reset?

I checked mine out as not noticed a problem. Turns out to be fine. Hope you sort the issue.

[Q] Amazing. Same problem on 2 Captivate phones. Speaker issue

Hello guys. Im feeling very frustrated now, i bought 2 phones on ebay from different sellers and both of them have problems when i play music. The sound goes off and became very quiet for some reason. To get it back i need to hit the speaker's area and it becomes fine again but for some short time only. I think it is a common problem and many people did have this problem. I tried to flash different fimwares etc, no luck. Please anybody help.. Regards

I was quite tempted to use LMGTFY but won't work at work lol.. So yeah, here's the answer: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1351278
If that doesn't work, some users reported that pushing on the speaker (after taking the back off) fixed their problem.
Hope it helps! and remember, a little search goes a long way

Should have used the search before posting.. will eport after.

Widespread problem bud. I have 2 captivates and both suffer from this. I tried fixing the one and made it way worse. Thinking about sending them both out for repair. Still a great phone!

Is anyone else having issue with the camera focusing ?

It seems it will not focus properly. sometimes it does and i can take a really good picture. but most of the time all it takes is blurry pics. has anyone else had this issue and no of anything to fix it ?

Did you take the protective film off the lens?

mine does the same thing, and i don't know what to do.. i hope it's a software issue and samsung can fix it.

Go to settings and check what type of metering you have it set to? Is it centered Matrix?
I've always just kept it on matrix as I found it to work the best for general shooting...

Less than 10 of us have reported this issue in the tmo forum. I was hoping it was a software issue too but we're all running the same software. Exchange it.

Had this exact problem and exchanged mine. New one is perfect.

Do you guys use video stabilization on the camera settings?

Glad I'm not alone with focusing problems...
Here is my topic : Note 4 camera won't lock focus + blurry edges on pictures with far focus
Best regards,
Chris.

Is your camera MODE on Selective Focus?

Did anyone find a fix for this? My wife's 2 week old note 4 has started doing this. It doesn't do it all the time and it happens with the Samsung camera and the Google camera. Yesterday I got it to fix itself by zooming but today that didn't help.

BAD ASS NOTE 4

Haven't had problem with camera. Read this thread. Fires up camera. Now I experiencing slow mo focusing.

Soft reboot solves it.

A soft reboot definitely solves this, had this experience with the previous Note series as well. Either the phone is overheating or the camera app is running in the background and the user forgot to force close the app especially if the camera was overextensively recently used; remember this is a phone camera, not professional grade SLR.

Nope. My phone has come nowhere near overheating. Fired up the camera on the whim of this thread. Closing camera from and force stopping in application manager did not do anything to resolve the issue. Tried some a couple other things. No dice. Soft reboot. Fixed. It's a bad random bug. Thanks touchwiz.

Overheating is one of many causes; others can also be the camera app running the background, especially for too long. A soft reboot is the only solution, but this occurred to me on other Note models as well; hey, its another samsung thing, argh.

My phone is less then 2 weeks old and this is happening. I went to the tmobile shop I bought It from and they reset it and told me if it happened again to call tmobile for a replacement. They weren't trying to replace it. Tmobile is sending me a replacement exchange. Hopefully this one works better cause my wife's is fine. Tired of coming upon issues like this when purchasing phones that cost this much. Worst part is I argued over the phone with tmobile to send me a new phone, they wanted to send me a refurbished phone. They said it will be a new phone, hopefully it is otherwise I'm returning all of them.

My camera is not focusing (auto/manual)

Hi there, my camera is having a real trouble right now.
I take my phone from the box and get the update from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3.
I did it.
Then I used like my daily phone but... the camera didn't Focus, manual or auto focus, just can't focus.
I did a wipe... Still the same problem.
I did a re-install of the 4.0.3 ROM. Still have problems.
What can I do?
Thanks.
Sorry about my english. I'm from Argentina.

If you've already wiped and re-flashed OOS, then it's likely a hardware issue.
I would contact OnePlus's warranty service prior to opening up the phone and trying to fix it yourself.

That's something that I don't want to read.
God... What a luck.
Thanks mate =/

I've got the same problem. I wiped not the sdcard data on the phone (storage/emulated/0) but everything else I wiped with TWRP as I updated to the latest OOS 5.0.3: Problem still exists, nothing solved. The phone is running fine, but the camera doesn't autofocus, every picture is blurry.
Has someone information for me, on what to expect, when I contact the OnePlus support with this problem? Or has anyone tried to repair it by himself/herself?

I had same issue around 6 months back. Its a hardware issue so don't waste your time flashing different roms like i did. Then i went to OnePlus Exclusive Store and they checked my phone and they told me that, they will fix it for FREE (even if your phone is out of warrenty) its a well known issue for 3 & 3T which OnePlus noticed a year back, as many users started facing this. If you are facing same issue then just go to the service center and get it fixed (it wont take more than an hour)
Tip: There is a third party company called Regenersis, which is authorised service center for OnePlus and many other brands, you can get it fixed here as well.
Cheers!

Same problem for me, sent to repair under warranty.
If you shake the phone the focus point will change? this is what happens to me, for a couple of months I was shaking the phone every time that I was taking a picture, sometimes focus was in the right place and I could take the picture

Yes, slight tapping of the phone in the palm of my hand sometimes made the phone focus for one time...
Thank you guys for your helpful answers! So I will try to contact the support. I'm in Germany and do hope to get the same good service as you did.

Hi folks, I asked OnePlus for a repair and they handled this quite well: My phone was back after eight days, now my camera is focusing again.
But now I'm questioning myself (and you, too )...:
A) What was the reason for this defect in the first place... Is there anything I can do to avoid it happening again?
B) I used different versions of the modded Google camera app in the past, but now I'm hesitating to install it again: could anything of this app might have damaged the focus of the camera module? Maybe the app tried to focus the camera out of its working range...?

A) Probably just a random hardware failure. It happens. Not much you can do about it. It's a mechanical component (the few left on phones these days) and can fail on day one, or not fail for years. Don't drop the phone too much, is probably the best you can do! lol
B) I doubt it was the fault of the Google camera app. I've been using the Google camera mod for a long time, with no issues.

I used a couple different builds, but haven't messed with it for a very long time. I put 5.1.018Arnova8G2-V1.3 on there a long time ago (over a year) and haven't updated it since.
EDIT: I have no better explanation for my lack of updating the Google Cam mod, other than I just fell out of the loop. Your question made me realize how far that mod has come during that time! I just installed the recent version 6.1.021 by Arnova8G2 and giving it a try.

This might sound stupid but have you tried cleaning the glass on the camera? And make sure that it is not scratched/cracked.

Yes. I tried cleaning camera lens several times yet still no positive ?

post some photos of the blurry image here. Post a landscape and portrait photo of a close subject. my friend also had same problem, he changed the camera module himself and all is good now. luckily the module is cheap if u bought directly from china. not degrading in picture quality overall.

I've seen a similar issue on other users phones in OnePlus forums and elsewhere. Everyone seems to be having this issue on the 4.5.XX update. Do a clean flash back to 4.1.x and see if it's fixed. If not, your focus sensor is dead.

As thes3usa mentioned, Seems like many users are facing issue after OOS 4.5.x update. But still its not confirmed whether the issue is related to hardware or software.
Its also reported in the OnePlus community that flashing old version of OOS doesn't help either
Can anyone tell me whether can i claim warranty for this camera issue ?

Any update to the issue friends?

Hey,
Where did you buy your device from? OP Store? or a reseller in your country? Whichever it is, unless you've given the device a hard drop or something like that, I think you should be able to claim warranty on camera failure, since it's an internal error, and not done by your own hands.
P.S.: Next time, use the reply function when you're replying or quoting another post.
Cheers!
