[Q] Annoying Screen That Pops Up While Phone Is Connecting A Call

Hello, I am currently using clean rom 1.1 but I know this is a standard feature in stock.
When you make a call while connected to a Bluetooth headset their is a screen that pops up that shows you the different choices you have to connect the call. The Bluetooth I am currently on or I could choose the Phone or speakerphone I believe.
It is a popup that says Audio Source.
My problem is sometime I call somebody I didn't mean to call and I cant end the call fast enough because that popup screen stays on for like 2 seconds.
So, is there a setting I am missing to get rid of it or something else I could try I am rooted and s off.
Thanks...

Can't you simply end the call with your Bluetooth device?

I suppose I could do that but my headset has small buttons it would probably be just as fast to wait for the popup to go away.
I don't recall this kind of popup in any of the previous phones I owned. Just a minor annoyance..

I have the same complaint.
My call log has fairly small text and so if not careful could touch the entry next to the intended entry.
AND because the audio source popup is in the way I can't see who I'm calling until the popup goes away.
AND the phone has already started ringing by the time it goes away.
I'm simply asking if there is a way to disable this popup???
My phone app itself has a simple way to change audio source if I want ...

Galaxy S6 Edge+ Bluetooth forcing speakerphone when phone screen is off w Nougat?

Hi all,
I am having an issue with my Galaxy S6 Edge+ with Bluetooth forcing the speakerphone when I am making a call and driving. This has just starting occurring since the Nougat update. If someone calls me I can still answer from the head unit and the Bluetooth works perfectly. The issue is when I make a call and press the steering wheel Bluetooth button. When I do this and say the name of the person to call I get the voice command saying "Calling so and so mobile...ON SPEAKERPHONE". It says it's calling the person but then says ON SPEAKERPHONE.
What is interesting is I played around with different settings, reset my phone, unpaired and repaired, and still the same issue since the Nougat Update. But what is interesting is that I found if I make a call while my screen is active (screen is on), and I make the same Bluetooth call, I can see the google voice icon pop up on my phone, the call is made CORRECTLY, through Bluetooth. However, if my screen is off and I make the call, it ALWAYS reverts to speakerphone. So as long as I touch my phone to make the screen active for 5 or 10 seconds or whatever I have the screen set to, as long as the screen is on the Bluetooth always performs correctly. I can not figure out how to prevent the speakerphone from being the primary source when the phone screen is off and I make a Bluetooth outbound call.
Again, if someone calls me, it doesn't matter if my phone is locked, screen is off or on, the Bluetooth always works fine. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you.

Seems to me that the wakelock for Bluetooth calling is set to be inactive while screen is off. See if you can find that wakelock or some other wakelock that would disable Bluetooth calling and switch it so that screen off does not interfere.

@ droidriven, thank you for your reply. I have never heard of wake lock before, is this an option within settings on my Galaxy S6 Edge+? I never had this issue with prior OS's but with Nougat this issue immediately became present. If you could lead me in the right direction where I might find the wake lock setting for Bluetooth, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you again.

it looks like you are on to something. I checked this again and anytime I make a call via Bluetooth voice command and where my screen is off, I hear the automated voice command say calling so and so....on speakerphone....but when it says this, the screen stays locked and does not activate on the voice/Bluetooth command to call. I am using google voice and see no settings for wake lock or anything similar but I have pinned this down to anytime the screen is off, the voice command/Bluetooth always go to speaker phone. If someone calls me, it always works correctly, but that is because when someone calls me, my screen automatically engages/turns on.
Anyone else have this issue? It's definitely a problem and dangerous to have to grab my phone to turn it on or unlock it before making a voice/Bluetooth call. Any help to fix this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Go to PlayStore and do a search for:
Wakelock Detector
Wakelock are system processes and don't have a "setting" to manage them.
Use this app to find the running wakelocks, if you track it down you can then look for a way to manage it the way you need it to work. It works with root and without, instructions for without root are in the link.

Droidriven,
I have a little more info on this issue. I did more research and realized somehow my "S VOICE" app was disabled so I enabled it and right away this issue was fixed! With S VOICE enabled, anytime I use the voice recognition button to make a call the screen on my phone immediately activates and the call works without going to speaker phone. With S Voice I can at least use the voice recognition button to make a Bluetooth call while driving and not have to worry about the call going to speakerphone.
The only issue I have noticed is it appears S VOICE isn't as accurate as google voice and google voice worked perfectly for me before the Nougat update. Now that I've isolated this issue to google voice where the screen will not activate when using the voice recognition button on my steering wheel to make a Bluetooth call and which causes all calls to go to speakerphone.....is this still something this wakelock detector may fix? My phone is not rooted and I have downloaded the non-rooted version of wakelock detector, I just don't know if it's going to help or not. It's odd that google voice worked fine prior to the Nougat update, whether my screen was off or locked when using Bluetooth and now all of a sudden this issue is present.
Any suggestions on this now that we know it's only google voice that has the problem and not S VOICE?

According to this and many other links I checked out, this is a common issue due to G Voice and S Voice incompatibility.

Samsung S8+ Speaker Turns on Automatically during Phone Calls

Hello,
Handset: Samsung S8+
Purchase Date: May 29, 2017
Problem: Sometimes when I am on a normal phone call (Outgoing or Incoming), speakers turns on it's own. If i look at phone, the speaker icon is not "GREEN" (which means it wasn't pressed). I have to press the speaker icon once and nothing happens because at that time the phone starts loud speaker (Which is already turned on) and then i press it again to turn it off and everything is back to normal.
During a single call this can happen multiple times.
I am not sure what's wrong. I installed a Call recorder app previously, but then uninstalled it (Thinking it might be creating that problem), but the problem still persists.
Has anybody faced this issue or anyone can hint me what to do ?

Same issue with my Galaxy s8 (sprint). Am googling and seeing multiple people have similar, will let you know if I encounter solution.

same issue being faced here on my Galaxy S8 from a couple of days during phone/messenger/whatsapp calls. it is so annoying.
any luck or solution?

bump, same issue here. anysolution? s8 g950w

ANyone?

Answer
You just need to wipe the data cache partition. You do this by turning your phone off. Then do a hard boot by pressing and holding down the Bixby button, volume up, and power all at the same time. Continue holding until blue screen comes up. Then you will see a list of commands. Use volume down to navigate to "wipe data cache partition". Use the power button to select "wipe data cache partition". When it completes, use the power button to choose "reboot". This will fix the issue.

Clearing cash definitely helped me on Samsung Galaxy S8 with the same issue. Thanks.

Quite a nuisance when you're riding a motorbike and it goes to your phone in the pocket or bag.

aaa, ok . really thanks for the information.

my phone sometimes does not come out of DNDM and keeps all sounds off even after the call is over.

when on a phone call, can you turn off incoming sounds from text messages?

When I'm on a phone call and I get a text message it's so loud through the earpiece is there a way to turn this off?

I HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM TOO!
I've yet to find a solution for it yet. Couldn't find a way to turn it off either. I have play notification sound disabled inside of textra but it still goes through.

I use signal texting app... Must be 3rd party texting apps

I updated to 9.0.3 yesterday. It didn't cause the loud ding at all. I think it may have fixed it. I'll confirm again later today, so far seems promising.

Just updated as well... Let you guys know
New update me the phone super Snappy FYI

I don't think there's a particular switch that you can toggle. Although, what you can do is, delete /system/media/audio/ui/InCallNotification.ogg and you shouldn't get that sound for every notification during calls. But then again, you need to have root access.

Just got a text while on a call and didn't hear a ding. I'm on 9.0.3, completely stock.

@Macusercom were not the only ones. 9.0.3 may have fixed the issue fyi

That'd be great. Just flashed it and will check.

Tested again today. Not a single notification, including text, caused the loud ding

It's been fixed!
