[Q] Headset not clear

Hi guys,
I am facing trouble while using a head set with my phone for making calls. The person at the other end is hearing noises and distortions making the call quality really poor and making the headset useless. I tried with many headsets but its it till there. Without the head set the call quality is pretty fine.
The odd thing is that while doing voice calls through Skype, this issue does not pop up.
I am using 16gb s advance running stock JB android. Does anyone else face this issue?
Thanks.

I was using headset that I got from the phone, white one. And I did not have any problems before. On stock, did not try it on CM ROMs.

Then it must be a hardware problem (not sure why skype calls works fine though ). Will get it checked out by Samsung guys. Thanks

Sound problem when calling solved by custom ROM?

My friend has a problem with his galaxy s4 active. His microphone and speaker work perfectly when testing with music and audio recording. But when calling someone the speaker is dead silent and the other person can't hear him. I saw a bunch of threads where they reheat the audio IC and so on. He is running android 5.0.1. Now my question is: is this a software problem and can it be fixed by flashing CM? Thanks for any and all replies.
Edit: If you're wondering I know how to flash custom ROMs and have a lot of experience doing that.

I have the same problem, no sound when call via telephone app. Videos and music are prefect to. The best is when I use WahtsApp and call to someone everything is ok. So I think hardware is ok but something is blocking standard telephone application. I reset my phone (wipe) and reload rom but the problem wasn't gone.
I'm still looking for any solution so maybe someone can help.

Thanks for the reply I was thinking it is a software glitch considering sound recording still works.

Problems with cabled headphones

Hello
I am on Globerom 6.12.8 and I am having trouble using my cabled headphones during a call. If the screen goes off I can still hear the conversation but people on the other end can't hear me. It's very annoying since I use headphones for calls all the time. Any idea of what could be the problem? (I use Nova Launcher as default). Thanks in advance for the help.

Did you ever find an answer on this? I have the same problem

I don't have this problem, but perhaps play with the settings in:
settings -> sound & vibration -> audio settings.
I'm guessing there is a headphone setting causing it o recognize/not recognize the microphone in the earphones.

Excuse me, but what's about updating GlobeROM to newest version first and ask again if update doesn't fix that issue?

Note 9 whatsapp call and Gear S3 Bluetooth issues

Gear S3 frontier paired with new Note 9 causing issues in whatsapp. Everytime I make a whatsapp call the Bluetooth Icon is always on/selected and sometimes calls go on speakerphone. Also randomly WhatsApp hangs and no way to hangup the call but to request other party to hangup call and WhatsApp resumes. Making normal calls over GSM carrier works fine.

Also incoming calls go to speaker.. Outgoing calls are fine but show Bluetooth Icon as if it is selected. Tried Viber and that works fine. If anyone had a note 9 and a gear S3 do chime in.

Seems like I'm the only one with this issue. No one else seems to have it. My wife's note 8 works fine. Is it a faulty unit or whatsapp?

EXACTLY SAME SITUATION AS ME! Pairs the S3 with the Note 9 and i have tried over 3 different BT headsets which result in the same outcome.
1) Hitting answer on the BT headset doesnt answer the phone
2) Sliding the answer slide for recieving a whatsapp voice call results in the BT icon on, loudspeaker off but the call still goes on loudspeaker mode.
But if I unpair the S3, problem 1 still exists, but problem 2 disappears. All firmwares are up to date.

Same issue here with Galaxy watch and note9

Same problem with Note 9 and Galaxy Watch. WhatsApp and Telegram calls are recieved on loud speaker. Any solutions, guys?

Unfortunately - no. But it seems that it's not Samsung bug but Android 8.1. People with 8.1 devices claim the same.

WhatsApp causing many issues
Hello
I have an S9 Plus. Once upon a time, I was receiving whatsapp calls on my gear S3 as a norm. Everything dandy. Wouldnt need to go running to go fetch my phone just so I can answer a whatsapp call. Just pick it up on my phone. It was the convenience and a major plus. Now long gone.
However, now, I have for a few months, come to notice that i can no longer pick up whatsapp call in my car using the button on my steering wheel, or by clicking the pickup button on the gps screen. Although the call shows up on the screen, it can only be received by sliding up on the phone which makes it a very unsafe situation because I now have to take my eyes of the road and start sliding on tthephone screen to receive a call. Things, instead of getting better and safer, they are becoming unsafe.
Oh I am on Android 9.0 and it was working fine on 9.0 before.

Mi 8 Low Bluetooth Volume

Hello Everyone!
So after changing from iPhone 8 Plus i bought an Mi 8 , brand new , and using Oneplus Bullets Wireless.
I've noticed that the Bluetooth audio is so low that i can hear others better, than my music.
De paired, re paired the devices, activated Absolute Bluetooth Volume, tried restating the phone, i made my region To India, tried everything what i can find on the web, but still no changes.
Is there any Kernel or Rom which removes this feature? I'm using the latest MIUI i would stick with the original Rom so a kernel fix would be great. If its cant be fixed by kernel can you guys link me a good rom to use?
Thanks.

I had this problem.
I downloaded R.E. equaliser from the Playstore.
Now my Bluetooth volume and speaker volume are great.
I used the presets but turned the gain up,that's all.
This is a great equaliser for people like myself who aren't rooted,a couple of pounds to buy but well worth it.

Bought the re equalizer and the issue of low volume is still there..
Also region change did not help...
Any other solutions?

I also have this issue. Did anyone find out anything?
