Hi guys,
I was reading the watsapp app problems below in the threads, and I noticed some similarities with NY problem, but not exactly the same so I decided to ask for help in a new forum thread, maybe some one will help me solve the problem for this I'm thankful in advance!
So the problem is as follows:
I have viber on my p8 max and it works fine for some time like hours/days sometimes, I am located in Bulgaria/Europe and my internet/3g/WiFi/phone calls/SMS works just fine. The problem is that sometimes out of nowhere viber gets disconnected and no matter what I do I can't get it back online unless I turn off the phone(restart not working) for few min and get it back online. The atrane thing is that during the time viber goes offline I DO have internet, I can browse the net normally, I can receive and send SMS, I can call and get incoming calls but viber still disconnected until I switch off/on the phone.
I used hangouts, now I'm using the stock contacts/SMS/phone app for the phone, but no matter what I use it still has this problem.
Any one had similar or the same problem? Did you fix it? Any one has any suggestion how to fix it maybe?
Thanks

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

Has anyone else experienced that ? I`ve been sometimes notified by friends/family that they couldn`t reach me even though I`m always under full signal areas. I can make callls, but sometimes cannot get any; tried that myself and can confirm it. This has happend with all ROMs -sense or CM based- and radios I`ve been using latetly.
LE: I use stock kernels, always.
Any suggestions ? Thanks.

This happened to me once, I had just changed to another carrier and my number had been ported a day earlier than I thought. Since my outgoing calls and SMS was working I didnt connect the dots. All was fine after changing to the new SIM.
Hmm, so could be related to the SIM itself. I plan on changing it and see whether the issue is still there, or not.
LE: it wasn`t caused by SIM as I`ve changed it 2 hours ago and within first attempt for an incoming call, I got the same problem. Then what I did was to wipe everything again -including SD card this time- flashed CM10 and so far so good. I`ll report back within few days.
Unfortunately, the problem keeps coming back. Regardless how many radios, ROMs and wiping method I`ve used, more and more often I cannot get incoming calls and voice mail gets in. I don`t really know what else to do. Very pissed off....
Hello,
I recently got lollipop update for my Nexus 5 OTA, After updating my phone i am experiencing issues while answering incoming calls. When i get an incoming call my phone rings and vibrate but nothing shows up on the screen.
I have to press the power button to bring my screen back to life and then unlock it to answer the incoming call. Without unlocking the phone i am not able to answer any incoming calls
This was not happening with 4.4.4. I am not sure if anyone else is facing same issue and i am not able to locate any workaround under settings of the phone. Any help on this will be highly appreciated.

Unfortunately this is a known issue that hundreds, if not thousands of people have been experiencing and reporting ever since the phone was released a year ago. So yes ever since 4.4, before even 4.4.2. Even more unfortunately it is a known issue that neither Google nor any carriers admit to own up to. Anyways to my knowledge no one knows if it is a software or hardware issue, but it is most likely not a carrier issue since it is reproduced on multiple different carriers. Anyways I will link you to the Google Forums thread that started on this issue a year ago and has hundreds of people posting and reporting it in that thread. You can find that post if you click right here.
The only solution is a work around, not a permanent solution. If you find out that someone called you, and the phone did not ring, restart the phone. It seems to have resolved the issue temporarily. I always restart mine every 2 to 3 days anyways to try to prevent it as little as possible, so that is what I would suggest. Also maybe state on your voice mail if you did not pick up to leave you a voice mail or send you a text so you know they called, because you been having issues with calls on your phone. That way you know someone called, because you will still get the text message or voice mail notification.
I had the problem mentioned in the second post (which may not be what OP was describing) and I solved it by trying out different radios. Latest one with Lollipop is fine, but the two before that weren't good.
I could really use some help for anyone who might have a solution.
My phone for some reason is not receiving calls. Not only that, but it does not register when I have a voicemail message and it more often than not takes me at least 2 tries to connect when I make calls. I should mention that I always have signal when my phone does this, even though it thinks I don't.
Has anybody else had this problem or know how to solve it? I'm not sure if I froze something I shouldn't have or if I might need a new sim, etc. I am on OE2 with CleanROM 1.5
Thanks in advance
You're currently using a custom rom, which usually come with bugs because 90% off them are still in beta. If you want things to work like they're suppose to I'd say use stock and and be rooted.
Hello,

Try this and let me know if it helps. Had the same issue as you and it seems to help. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3055661
I had the same issue after the update.. But this solved my problem
Turn off the okay Google detection in the Google app by going into the settings of Google app.
This was the simple solution for me and it worked for me. May be it will also work for you..
