Hello all,
I have tried a couple different roms between stock, trickdroid, unknown's and seem to have problems with wifi calling and was wondering if it was just me.
Basically I did not root the phone up untill recently I was running stock software and everything was good until getting the newest t-mobile update.
Since then and even after rooting with custom tmo rom I have issues with the following:
calls not ringing the phone when has been sleep for a while
wifi seeming to disconnect while on a call haven't seen it do it not on a call. (if wifi calling is off I don't have this issue)
call audio cuts out randomly.
I have so far put wifi to never go off with screen and put on best wifi performance.
That has seemed to help with the audio cutting out has gone away and with the connection drop during calls does not seem to happen as much.
with not getting calls it seems to not happen as much more so setting a different governer helped that not so much the rom.
Anyone else have these issues or noticed similar problems.

Came across an interesting issue with my RAPH whilst away.
The phone would reboot when ringing, or making outbound calls, sometimes the call could be established and a conversation could be had for a random amount of time (never more than a minute) and the phone would suddenly reboot.
I fixed the issue by turning off bluetooth (might have been looking for my headset) and just changing every setting in "Phone" to something and then changing it back.
Havent had an issue since.
figured id post incase anyone else had this frustrating issue.
I guess this might be solved with a different Radio version.
what version are you in?

Are you using S2U2 by any chance?
Mine started doing it since i put S2U2 on but am not sure if its entirely to blame.
Hi all,
I have been doing further testing and can report that S2U2 is not the problem. Its a device issue that occurs when i roam to a GSM network. When on 3G its usually fine. I have just upgraded radio to the .28 to see if this helps.
Both myself and my brother who have the same devices are seeing the same issue. I have seen it on the 3 rom and also the HTC asia rom hence why im looking at radio now.
I tried Radio .32 with no luck. Tried a few different ROMS as well, ROMEoS, the HTC ASIA update as well as the updated 3 ROM with no joy. Shame cause the phone is great apart form this "showstopper", back to my ever trusty Blackjack until a new handset arrives.
I'm on NextG btw, and problem occurs when swictching between GSM, Edge and HSDPA. Unfortunatey both home and office are in spots that switch between signals depending on where I am in the house/office, very frustrating. I'm also 90% sure it only happens when a call and data are happening at the same time, as my phone syncs wth Exchange, this is regularly.
I rang HTC support, they suggested a hard reset, which of course I've done many times, otherwise return for repair/replacement.
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
PS 2: This is my first post, hello xda community!

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

I know it is only an alpha build ICS but this thing rocks. The smoothest ROM I have installed on my g2x. Except for wi-fi calling issues. W-fi calling initiates, can make/receive call but the moment you answer call, other end can't hear and you can't hear the other end and then it crashes. I tried everything already I know under the sun. Re-installed ROM, installed and re-installed different versions of ICS gapps, dalvik wipe, and everything. Just need it at work. I work in a place where every carrier has no signal, so wi-fi calling is awesome. Anybody has same problem with me and found a solution?
I've noticed a reboot or plane mode on/off will randomly fix it. It seems kind of hit-or-miss at this point.
I have the same issue except I haven't been able to make/receive a single call successfully. Admittedly I haven't tried airplane mode or rebooting after the first fail.
I've tried debugging it a bit and there's some strange messages in GANRIL -- there's a bunch of modem commands then suddenly NO CARRIER after some unsolicited command, then the whole thing seems to fail.
There's also some error that happens in the audio lib possibly pointing to a failed hand-off, but maybe that's a red herring.
I've tried a bunch of different versions I've found searching for a solution including one I packaged myself with some experimental build props and the .so and APK files from CM7.2. No success so far.
I kind of want to start a bounty for this -- Wifi Calling is very important for me. TMO signal sucks in my apartment that it's practically unusable even with a zBoost Wi-Ex running in here. In some places like Las Vegas the signal was so bad that I ended up using a Verizon MiFi card + Wifi calling =P
ICS is so cool though that even given all that, not having it is not a total deal breaker for me, just an annoyance.
I also have problems with wifi calling on HFS v1.2. It will connect and I can answer it. However, once I answer I can't hear the other side and they can't hear me and then it appears as if the other side calls again and all I can do is ignore the call.
Yeah, I managed to get this far now -- can sometimes make calls, can receive all calls but audio does not route on received calls. Then it goes into a bad state and requires a reboot for it to work again.
It seems ICS + Wifi Calling works, there's just bugs to iron out ...

I'm curious for all you TmoUS people who have the ability to use wifi calling, if you are using it for ICS and it works could you describe your setup - rom, router, internet service, etc.
I've tried wifi calling on 3 different ICS roms and it didn't work for any of them. For my personal setup things work for about 2 or 3 minutes and then the call fails and my phone freezes for a few seconds. To call back I need to disable wifi calling, I've given up on it for now. I'm just curious to know if it might be just the app or if it could be the router or wifi signal or some combination or factors.

It is none of the above. Wifi calling on Tmo US with an ICS ROM is a known issue and will not be resolved until a developer gets an actual Tmobile US RUU to play with.
Between that and the inability to use the MyAccount app on an ICS is the whole reason I'm still on AHRD 3.6.
It is well known and documented that WiFi calling will work for a short time then cut out...and the fix by a dev is waiting on the above mentioned RUU.
I know that I've read posts that people claim to have been using wifi calling on ICS without any issues. I know its a known issue and I know the root of the problem is ICS itself, but why do some people say they use it without a problem?
My guess is people try to talk on the phone like me...as little as possible.
if someone is able to carry on a lengthy conversation without issues, I'm in the same boat as you...I'd like to know too.
Sorry...I didn't know you were aware of the apparent issues...
I have Wifi Calling partially working on my T-Mobile/HTC G2 running Andromadus Alpha13 (CyanogenMod 9 based).
I haven't figured out all the specific build.props entries that it needs to work, except I know that some update.zips with a minimal set don't work. I have one that pretty much replaces the build.props with one that spoofs TMO build data as well as other stuff and that this build.prop file works.
In addition to needing the .so files that are provided in all the update.zips I've found, and the Wifi Calling APK, I've read that GanOptimizer.apk is needed too and added that to mine.
I've found I can unreliably make outgoing calls. The first boot it did not work, the second boot I was able to make a call every other attempt or so. The audio quality seemed good too.
I can receive every single incoming call but they won't route audio wise and will drop. Then the app gets into a bad state and can't make outgoing calls either. Rebooting fixes that.
I haven't finished figuring out the bugs. The bottom line is it seems that CM9 *does* support Wifi Calling and it can work with some libraries and APKs added, however there are bugs that need to be figured out and fixed.
So from what it sounds like if I switch to Revolutinoary HD, then I won't get wi-fi calling, but since I'm running CM7, I get wi-fi calling but in exchange my HD camera doesn't work. We really just have to wait for updates now don't we?
Hey I actually just got HD Revolution installed, made a call on wi-fi for 15 minutes or so and it worked just fine.
Im running ARHD ICS and wifi calling works perfectly for me.

That's kind of the point of my post, if it works for you I wanted to know what your exact setup is. I started with ICS on ARHD and wifi calling still only worked a couple minutes before cutting out.

+1. Same boat.
Well there's not much to tell really. I just updated my firmware as I was running CM7 to ICS and installed AR HD ICS 6.5.1. Other than that I guess I run NOVA launcher and that's really it
hey guys, ever since i rooted and put viper rom on my device it reboots during phone calls, but even now that i flashed back to stock rooted it still happens. Any one else having this issue or know of a fix? this is the new black one from t-mo not sure if that makes a difference.
I'm having reboot problems involving Call Recording being used with Wifi Calling. Separate issue....but may disabling wifi calling would fix your problem? I've also read elsewhere that there have been past HTC problems with Wifi calling.
