Phone call - Sound Cut
Hello,
I Have the same problem.
very frequent while using speaker phone !
time to time in normal phone call.
VERY ANNOYING
There's another thread which may describe what you're taking about. The thread seems to conclude it's a hardware problem.

I have the same problem too, but only in the first five seconds after I init the call.

Problem with "Phone" app on Nexus One

Hello,
I have been having random problem with Nexus One since the first day I got it. (Stock Firmware, Stock Firmware-rooted, Cyanogen-beta3)
Symptom : Once in a while, when making a call you will hear just one ring on Nexus One, then silence for another two rings (the other end is still ringing), then the call is cut off. --- When dialing problem shows up, you won't be able to receive a call either. When the phone rings and you slide to receive a call, it will just hang up right a way.
Temporary Fix : I found temporary fix for this issue by restarting the phone, or just killing all the running apps.
This is my first android phone, so I'm really not sure if I done something wrong. I did some search but found no topics covering this issue.
Cheers!

Problem: Making call results in silence

I've been having a weird problem that has become very frequent in the past couple days. When I place a call, I will just get complete silence while the counter starts to indicate the call is being made. I thought it was just a failed attempt to connect to the network, until I did some testing and found out that the call is actually being placed and the other person can answer - but they also get silence. When this happens, I don't get that initial little digital S3 tone you hear to indicate a call is being placed, and also don't hear the normal phone ringing tone you hear when you are waiting for someone to pick up. This is now happening on 25-50% of calls I place, so when I don't hear that tone, I just have to hangup and retry a couple times until I get the tones to indicate the call is going to work. It seems like this used to happen maybe once in a very long while, like maybe if you hang up and then immediately try to dial out again...but again, it's now happening very frequently. Anyone know what is going on here?
FYI, I've been on CleanRom 6 for quite a long while with no issues, and I haven't made any changes to my phone setup in weeks that would seem to account for this new issue. Any help would be appreciated. If I can't figure it out, looks like I'll try to wipe everything and start from scratch to see if it'll get rid of the problem.
Update: Tracked this issue to Soundabout app I had recently installed. Verified by uninstalling and reinstalling that app to fix/recreate the problem.

Why is In-call volume automatically reset to a low value? Always requires to turn up

Hey guys,
a relevant discussion with no solution is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/call-volume-reset-call-t2900082
Each time I make a call, or receive one, the phone call volume is set just a tiny bit above zero, so I can hear nothing and I have to crank it up. I have to do this each time and I still did not get into the habit of doing it (partially cause I do not subconsciously want to do it forever), so the frist few seconds are always just awkward. It has nothing to do with the mixer_paths.xml, cause I have a "90" settings (by default) set there, so it must be something else.
I know of no setting that would make a default in-call volume globally for a phone. This happens in normal calls, facebook messenger calls.. I think I noticed this happening first time with facebook in-call volume.
Is there anything to be done?
Hello,
I have exactly the opposite problem. Did you solve?
Did anyone find a solution or got this solved?? I have the same problem
I am on CM11 44s, I set the volume to 2 notches and it resets back to full for the next call. The setting is not getting saved or something.
This problem has cropped up a couple of days back, previously it was working fine.
Anyone having any idea?
I stopped having this problem, after I upgraded to Android 6.0.1. However, in call volume dropped even when it is maxed out, which is kind of worse situation actually.

Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls

Pixel 2 XL Issues Dialer extremely slow & Deafening notification beeps during calls
Hi all,
I had a quick search on the forums but couldn't find anything related to this. I'm unsure if it's a problem with just the Pixel 2 XL or Android. I've installed all OTA updates and the phone is running 8.1.0. It had both of these errors prior to updating. I have also replaced the entire handset and tested again. Still occurring. I have a Pixel 2 also, which does NOT experience these issues. I'm also running stock, no root/roms. *edit* I went through Google support for both issues, they couldn't find any solutions. They suggested a factory reset and then replaced the handset.
The dialer:
Intermittent problem. Basically when you open the dialer or a contact and initiate a call, the app often freezes for an indeterminate amount of time. It could be 10 seconds it could be over a minute. Eventually it will move to the "call" screen and then freezes/lags again. Once more this can be any length of time up to a minute or more. All other apps work perfectly fine during this process. Eventually the call initiates and you can hear it ring, once in call everything behaves normally.
The notifications:
This one is simple. During a call receiving an SMS or other notification results in an electronic beep sound which plays at full volume. It does the same thing after the call ends. I'm not sure if it's using call or external speakers as the volume is so damn loud it doesn't matter. It legitimately causes me to throw the phone away from my ear and I cannot hear anything besides buzzing for 20 minutes. It actually hurts.
Nothing I do has stopped this except to turn on DND before I make or receive a call, which is useless. I read a few other threads about this being a new feature in 8.1.0 and "intentional". However I think those are referring to the call end beep, or notifications during a call that make the designated notification sound, not a deafening beep. The threads I read suggested removing third party apps and phone permissions, I used a brand new handset and the beeps still happened.
Please does anyone have a suggestion? I'll try anything at this point.

If you don't have issues with the Pixel 2 and do have issues with the Pixel 2XL, why don't you ask in the Pixel 2XL forum?

Hey, did you get any answers on this,. I'm having the same frustrating issue.
I just started to have this problem a few days out of nowhere. Some on Reddit are having issues too.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/80qh32/pixel_2_xl_dialer_problems/
I found that plugging the phone into charge or computer fixes the issues for a little bit...
Had similar issues with my Verizon Pixel 2. After some searching, I restarted the phone in safe mode and the problem went away, meaning it's a non-stock app interfering with the phone app. I restarted in 'normal' mode, uninstalled Facebook (it's always f'ing Facebook), and have had zero issues since.
