[Q] Galaxy S2 Voice Call Volume reset - General Questions and Answers

Hello,
The Voice Call volume of my device keeps resetting to zero, and every time i dial / answer i have to manually crank up the volume for INCALL setting because it is always at 0.
I haven't installed any program to manage voice call volumes.
This has only started to occur recently.
Has any1 else experienced this problem? Perhaps it is a FW issue I'm not aware of... or I installed some program that does this for me without knowing?
Any kind of help is appreciated, as this has been bugging me for days, and its getting frustrating now..
My device:
Galaxy S2
Android ver 2.3.5
Kernel ver 2.6.35.7-I9100BVKJ4-CL681297
Thank you in advance for your input.

Phone problem, transmitting

Hi anyone and all,
My XDA II all of a sudden developed a problem in that although I can dial and hear people I had called, they can not hear me. I have toggled the mute button, performed a soft and hard reset and even installed the latest upgrade in an effort to resolve, but no joy.
Does anyone have any ideas on how i can fix my beloved XDAII?
have you tried
1. to use normal record to check if the mic is working?
2. cleaned the mic
phone can only hear callers
Yes, i have tired the record function, that works fine, sorry should have mentioned that earlier, i wonder if it is a component transmitter problem!

Help! Can't pick up phone calls!

Hi,
I recently have had a big problem with my Fuze w/ the Energy Rom 2.0 Build 41609. Whenever someone calls be, and I attempt to answer the phone, nothing happens. The ringtone stops but the phone freezes for a few seconds then shows that I have a missed call.
Anyone had this problem before?
Thanks

[Q]Please Help! Microphone not working on incoming calls..

Hello, i need some serious help over here
What's the problem:
I own a galaxy 3 since June, a week ago i started noticing the internal mic wasn't working on some incoming calls.
Details:
First of all the problem began for no apparent reason (the phone works fine otherwise and no major updates / new apps were installed)
This started happening on the official froyo ROM which was an excuse for me to flash the Kyrillos 9.4 ROM (wiped all data / formatted sd card in the process). The problem still occurs on Kyrillos 9.4 ROM suggesting that this is not a ROM issue
I thought it was a hardware issue but the caller can hear me perfectly if i connect the headset or use the speaker Also the internal mic works fine on some incoming calls and ALL outgoing ones!
Upon further investigation i came upon 2 threads on other forums (unfortunately i can't post the urls as i am a new user, if needed pm me or search google for "Microphone not working on incoming calls") which point out that the same problem incurs on HTCs and XPERIAs. Also it happens on replacement phones (original unit shipped back after this problem), on different providers, on official and custom ROMs, on clean phones (only the stock apps installed).
This seems to happen when the phone is idle for a set period of time (unconfirmed). Fast Reboot app / manual reboot / removing battery don't fix this, however making an outgoing call seems to enable the internal mic temporarily (even if the outgoing call never connects)
When this happens apart from the mic not working on incoming calls it becomes also unresponsive for other apps (Tape-a-Talk, Skype, Soundhound etc.)
Conclusion:
It seems to me that there is bug in froyo that keeps the incoming call code from activating the microphone or perhaps there is a conflict of sorts that keeps the microphone blocked. It is highly unprobable i think that the microphone would randomly start to fail on different android phones in the exact same way, so this shouldn't be a hardware issue.
Question:
Does anyone know/guess or can produce a possible solution for this? If not, could you please suggest further testing steps to help reproduce 100% this problem in an attempt to solve it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is a pain in the neck for me (and others i guess?!)
PS: Excuse the thread form, i 'm really bored of writing / reading long posts

I have the same problem. I flashed the phone from android 2.1 TO cyanogen 2.3 and from it TO ice cream. I had this problem even to cyanogen and only in incoming call,never in other situation.
Googling I found same information but no solution. Anyone here knows something?
Anyway I found a stupid solution....try switching to 2g( I know that it's not a solution but...). It works for me!
that's ridiculous! how can network state have anything to do with the microphone of the device? can this be related to service providers maybe a more techish member could tell us.
anyway i am on 2g already as i don't have a usim card and this happens even if data network mode is deactivated. glad you found a way out but is it really a solution? i mean you have to ditch 3g for the phone to be actually a phone...
Since we seem to be the only ones among so many to be having this problem i am seriously thinking of taking back the phone for a replacement and hope for the best...
just an update, i lost functionallity of the microphone completely earlier today. That is with outgoing / incoming calls and any app i can think of, so i thought i 'd try changing the network data setting to 3g only since i was already on 2g...
WOW!!! that had an instant effect,it works seamlessly now,didn't even have to reboot.fingers crossed it will last.
that is one nasty and very strange bug. Please any of the developers could you take a closer look at this?
much appreciated

[Q] Galaxy S 7562 Duos - No incoming while sleeping

Hi all,
I have a very strange problem with Galaxy S 7562. The phone receives no incoming calls when it is sleeping. When the phone is out of sleep, it receives calls but as soon as it is sent to standby(sleep), it stops receiving incoming calls. Any caller would hear a message that "phone is not reachable" and I would get a missed call alert SMS once I wake it.
I have read in the forum about the same problem with S4 on ATT in US and the temporary solution was to turn off LTE but that is not applicable to me as I am using a network in India. The problem is irrelevant of network I use.
To me it appears that the phone switches off the radio as soon as I put it to sleep but I can't understand why? Below is what I have done so far:
1. Factory reset the device.
2. OTA Update.
3. Wipe User Data.
4. Changed to GSM Only, GSM(Auto PRL) was default.
Above made no difference as expected. The phone's battery is also dying out quickly and if I put the phone to sleep with charger on it would wake on incoming calls for first few minutes and then stop doing so.
After having this problem I rooted my device and installed PMP™ Xtreme Purity MOD v3 For SGS DUOS (GT-S7562) and now am running on baseband: S7562DDBMJ1, kernel: 3.0.8-1260195 [email protected]#1.
I am considering doing a stock restore on this device but don't think it would be fruitful as the problem appears to be something else. I wonder if it could be a dying battery or will a custom rom resolve this problem(I don't think so, though).
Any help would be highly appreciated as I had been struggling with this for 2 days now.
Further
Did a stock restore and a custom ROM installation to no rescue!!
Experts, please share your views.
Phone is absolutely normal when awake..

[Q] Dialtone issue for Outgoing call on bluetooth -Android 5.0

Hi all,
As the title suggests, everytime when I am making a call on blueooth (car), the ring\dial tone will stay silent for the rest of the process until the call is connected. I have also looked into the settings menu under sounds but with no help, tried deleting and repairing the devices and no luck. Is anybody else experiencing this problem and better yet, found a solution for this?
My friend is also experiencing same issue and we are using Ford car Bluetooth connection.
Also happens on my Nexus 4 newly upgraded to lollopop.
Fine for incoming calls but silent for outgoing. Switching to speakerphone on the device then back to bluetooth seems to manually make it route the call through the bluetooth handsfree but is obviously very unsafe.
Suprised more people havent mentioned this issue!
Managed to find a fix? 5.0.1 doesnt sort it sadly.
Finally I see someone acknowledging the issue.
Nope, could not find any fix and surprisingly no one is mentioning this issue anywhere. Experts in this forum should help us with some solution.
Got the workaround

You can put the source of the audio system to Bluetooth audio and you should be able to hear the dialtone. Afcoure your call end buttons on audio system will not work while on dialtone. After the phone is picked-up the buttons start working
