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.

Did a stock restore and a custom ROM installation to no rescue!!
Experts, please share your views.
Phone is absolutely normal when awake..

Power savings settings or app related?

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?!)

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

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.
Hi
I have a EFOX E5s MT6592 with android 4.4.2, build number SMART-E5_V1.0_V01_2014-09-03_21:54:49 which I have rooted and backed up.
My problem is that the "Vibrate on connect" is always on and the setting to turn it off has been removed my EFOX.
I have installed through xposed to the "Android Phone Vibrator" apk but with the vibrate outgoing call un-ticked and the vibration intensity turn down as low as possible , it still does not change the vibrate on connecting a call.
My reason to try and stop this is because the vibrate is so strong and load that the person you are calling gets there ear blown off as they answer my call.
Is there a way of entering the android program that EFox have installed and change/turn this off or do I need to load a different system or rom.
Hope you can help, I have spent weeks trying to work it out and getting no where fast.
There is no information on your device on XDA.
You may want to contact the manufacturer for a resolution.
Good luck !!
Hi friends.
I have a weird problem with my galaxy a5 duos sm-a500h.
I don't know exactly when and why this problem apears.
But all i know is when i leave the phone in standby (turn the screen off) after turning the screen on i see emergency call only message. I flashed 3 deferente rom also i did factory reset from recovery even i rooted the phone and set the minimum cpu frequency to 1000 using setcpu application but unfortunately non of them solved the problem. I,m from iran and here there isn't any special network carrier like Vodafone or t.mobile or anything else. Networks here are usual and the same. I triyed 4 deferente sims from 4 different service providers and didn't noticed deferente behavior from phone. Also i checked the IMEI number between box and phone displaying and they are alright and the same. Plz help me solve this. This became my nightmare.
Hello! I'm going to need some help on someone that might know more than I do.
Here's the challenge:
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S7 AT&T Unlocked (G930A)
Build: G930AUCS4BRA1 (latest)
This phone has two really hard to pin down issues that will surely make a challenge.
First one, is the microphone. Calling or receiving a call makes the person on the other end to hear themselves. It is not explained by the other person using speakers, since it happens 100% of the time, even testing it with the express instruction to not use a speaker.
What the hard-to-pin-down issue is? It doesn't happen with any other calling program. I can voice call from WhatsApp or from an app from my provider using Wi-Fi or 4G and the issue disappears. Only happens if I receive or make a call from the phone without using Internet.
Second one, is a new one that happens randomly. The phone freezes, shuts down and restarts in a loop, about 3 or 4 times, and then works normally. Happens about 2-3 times a day and started two days ago, without any physical damage as a cause.
What has been done to try to fix this issue?
Cleared cache
Phone reset
Installed updates (twice, one from 6.0 to 7.0, and then updated the build number), once by using Odin, and the other one to update from SD Card.
Nothing has fixed any of these issues.
Any ideas?
