I searched the forum for this, and even google, but without any replies. So I thought I have better luck creating a new thread.
Basically I'm my question is about the conference call beeping sound (when calling more then one person at the same time). I read it's a privacy thing. But in my opinion it would be enough to beep only, maybe, the first 10 minutes?
So my question is, is it a phone thing or a carrier thing?
And if it's a phone thing, I'm stunned that no one had made a solution to disable it, cause it doesn't seam to be included in a phone.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
I think its a phone thing and you may put it in silent mode then no one will disturb you
hit thanks if I helped you

I think you misunderstood me.
The percipients that I called to the conference all is hearing the sound. Not me.
And it sounds every minute, to all of them, so it's not an incoming call or anything.
M facing same problem like you, found no solution yet.

hey,
I bought the nexus s (9023) about two months ago, stock rom, not rooted, and for the last week or two, it started making problems.
about 1-5 times a day, i can't here the other side at all. as if it's on mute. not even the ringing tone, before I'm answered. the only thing that solves it, is to restart the phone.
in other forums i've read that it's a mess, and that i should use my warranty. the problem is i bought the phone abroad, and shipping it should take about 3 weeks.
is it a common issue?
can i solve it alone, mabye by switching to a non-stock rom?
i'll be very happy to read some good news here, but bad news is better than non.
thanks a lot,
tal
p.s, iv'e downloaded system info to monitor the temp, and it doesn't happen necessarily when the phone is hot.
I don't know... I am rooted, I have used 5 different roms since purchasing my phone.
Stock
CM 7
Savaged Zen
Oxygen
Soju
I have also used several kernels
CM Stock
Netarchy
Matrix
James Bond
Trinity
So far, on all roms and kernels I have experienced the same problem. You make a call and it connects, looking at the screen the time counter is going but there is no sound; it will sit there and hold the call for 30-55 seconds then ends call. A quick redial and bam it works. Some people have reported that they answered and there was nothing. I don't know, it's really obnoxious.
The other, more annoying problem is that randomly on calls throughout the day the phone will just reboot itself. Right in the middle of a call. AHHHH like 3-5 times daily!
help, anyone?
i'm stuck with this, and a bit clueless.
Well, somehow I discovered that the problem is related to the bluetooth. as long as it's turned of, nothing will happen, on the other hand, when I use my earphone (most of my conversations happen while driving) i need to restart my phone every 1-2 calls
any ideas?
just u can't hear other one while calling u?
thanks.
so it was in the beginning, but now neither of us can hear the other. no matter who made the call.
and again, only when BT is working.

any solution?
Hi, did anybody have any solution to this problem?
I live this problem on almost half calls of specific numbers.
I am desparate...
Try setting discoverable timeout to never? Have you tried a different Bluetooth device?
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using xda premium
I have this problem too. This seem to happen on some Kangs and nightly, but not all of them. I can't hear when someone calls me. But when I call someone, I can hear them. I always have Bluetooth off (do not use them).
I live the same problem. No problem for outgoing calls. For incoming calls, I cannot hear caller's voice but they can hear me. It is not for all numbers.
I am on t-mobile and nexus s (cynagenmod nightlies). For all incoming calls from tmobile numbers no problem. But for almost all other carriers, it is just random.
I feel like I started having this problem after updating from CM 7.0.2 to 7.1 RC and thereafter(but not very sure on this).
If anybody still following this topic, I would suggest you to contact samsung if you still have warranty. On the second attempt they sent me a brand new phone with box and accessories.

Or, you might give it a try with a different radio for your model:

If you go this road, make sure you backup your EFS folder.
What i would do is if it is still in warranty just give it back to them and they'll probably give you a new phone. Since you said it takes 3 weeks to ship, just wait for it and use another phone if possible. Its not like your life is going to end. I think the problem is, not every phone is the same so there will be problems especielly when flashing a rom. For example unstable roms might not allow you to use this app or have serious effects on your phone.
Best to give it back to samsung and get a replacement.
Hey Guys, I have read all the post here, and have done numerous searches here as well as google, and cant find a single topic on the problem I'm having, and I know other people have to be having the same problem, or maybe they do, and don't realize it, lol.. anyway when I am on the phone talking to someone and someone else calls, the person I am talking to hears my beep, some ask who's trying to call you? while others say hold on they are getting a call, but it is my beep they are hearing, so I have tried almost every app in the market, and patiently waited for the 2.3.4 update, and no fix, I called tmobile and they said it was a known issue and LG is working on a patch, but didn't know when one would be available, I called LG they said it was a known problem but had no plans of fixing it.... Does anyone here know how to fix this ? or have a work around ?
besides disabling call forwarding all together ????? This is like an invasion of privacy
and really irritating, Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys !!
are u using Bluetooth? plantronic?
Na, stock g2x, stock rom 2.3.4 android, no accessories, if you have one try an experiment with someone, it does the same on mine, my fathers, and my girls.....
Weirdest thing.... thanks for any help
because my friend using 3gs and Bluetooth happened just like u said.
I know it's strange to ask about something related to calls on a phone
But...
made a call today, other side couldnt hear me. tried another person, same.
rebooted phone and all is good.
anybody had this at all?
No idea if it's phone or software (or if it will happen again)
Welcome to the club, I have the same issue but its very random so you cannot recreate it, this is said to be a software issue related to noise cancellation.

Hey guys and gals, I'm hoping someone here can help me. I have had a Samsung S4 for a about a year and a month ago all of a sudden, when I place a call, it acts like it going to connect but I never hear the ringback tones and when the receiving party answers they can't hear me and I can't hear them answer. It's as if I never successfully placed a call on my end, it jeeps continues to say "dialing". On the other end, the receiving party hears their phone ring but when they answer there is nothing there. I called tech support at Verizon and they thought it was a bad SIM card, so they sent me into the store for a SIM swap. That didn't work, so the tech at the counter ordered a replacement S4 for me. Now I'm sorry to say that it doesn't seem like a phone issue at all, rather an app or something that is causing the problem because I've had my new phone for 2 weeks now, and it just started happening again. I haven't installed any apps today that were on my phone prior to it happening the first time.
So A. has anyone seem this happening before and if so how'd ya fix it? And B. If not, is there a way I can find out what processes on the phone have happened in a time listed format that I might be able to narrow it down to a particular app possibly? I really don;t want to have to go through another hard reset of I don;t have to.
Thanks so much you all!!
Hi guys
I just got new u11 from sprint. I was very excited about this phone until I started to notice that the phone goes on mute while I'm on a call. The mute icon is not pressed. I usually click it to activate then deactivate it and it brings it back. Sometimes I hit that and speakerphone until the caller can hear me again. It's pretty frustrating. I searched online and it appears to affect many phones with 7.1.1, so I'm not sure if replacing the phone will cure this issue. I'm still within my exchange period but wanted to check with the community if there's a solution to this annoyance. It looks like it's affecting many phones and the users are pretty pissed off about it. Is there a fix from either sprint / HTC or Google ? Any advice is appreciated!

I suggest a factory reset first...since you just got the phone, you shouldn't have much to lose (and as a XDA user, you really have no reason not to be backed up somewhere....).
My second suggestion is to bring it to Sprint and let them fix/repair it, especially since you are within the return period.

Hi I did the factory reset without restoring any apps settings and the problem remains where during the call it goes on mute in and out. I called sprint and requested a new phone since this is either a hardware problem or bad sprint rom flash from factory. I went with a new phone route since I didn't want to waste the 14 day return/replacement period. Hopefully the new unit will work as expected out of the box. It's funny that a lot of people seem to have this issue on different brands.

Nothing to do with HTC and/or Sprint specifically. It seams to be a new feature if Android and is bound to the OS version 7.1.1 and upwards. OEMs can't do anything about it. Got it as well on my unit, bit when I activate knock on feature when in call it still does work as on previous versions, thus I don't care about the automatic DND during call in any way.

You can activate a knock feature for a second incoming call when talking on the line already. Sorry the knock on should try to describe this one.

im still not sure what you mean by knoc on feature. I will search the forum but this has nothing to do with another incoming phone call. i'm having in and out sound issues with the first call that's coming in.

You guys are talking about 2 different things.
One is micrpohone mute in call (seems like a bug) and the other one is DND mode while in call (seems like a feature).
I don't experience the behaviour you experience with calls on European model.

yes it's DND while on call, but it's not pressed/activated. i'm getting new phone anyways and will see if the issue persists. it's very annoying and not a good first experience with U11. i'm not sure if this is a software or hardware bug but this shouldn't be happening with a new device out of the box.

So what is it then?
1. DND while on call? It's nornal, you got your answer and new phone will act the same. It's not a bug.
2. Microphone goes on mute automatically and caller can not hear you? That's what you said in first post. It might be a bug.

I receive a call and after some time ( varies from few seconds to a min) the caller can't hear me. I put them on speakerphone they can hear me. Switch speakerphone off they can hear me again via normal call. It's ****ing frustrating. It's happening with a new replacement phone from sprint. I'm thinking about giving up on this u11 and getting galaxy. Its unlikely that it's a hardware issue on two new phones twice in a row
I have this same issue I also have several people tell me that they've called me several times yeah I have no missed calls I also have a strange text messages from the number 9479 and their blank

Hi Yaboc,
John here in Ireland and I'm having the same issue with my European HTC U11 and I feel your pain. I've been doing some Googling on the issue and have seen that (on previous HTC models anyway) it may be if you have Bluetooth on, the phone tries to connect to devices to pass the audio through and this is what causes the muting of the call. Do you have bluetooth switched on when the problem occurs? I have Bluetooth permenantly on for connecting to my Moto 360 watch so will try when I get home from work today to see if the problem still occurs if I switch Bluetooth off.
I'll be sure to let you know how I get it and just thought I'd share with you what I've read elsewhere online.
Here's the article I was on about earlier:
