I was trying to make calls yesterday and no matter who I called they couldn't hear me at all as if the microphone was broke. But the strange thing was, if I used S Voice it worked no problem and Skype did aswell.
This is why I cant understand what was going on.
I tried restoring from a backup but still didn't work. Did a full wipe and re installed a Rom from scratch.
Everything did work before I backed up and was working then suddenly stopped. I dint know what triggered it. Didn't install or do anything strange to it

You are not the only one. I tried several ROMS, all but one (checkrom v3.) did not work. Also only lbf modem is working for me. I tried to complain on several threads all devs do not recognise this as a pb.

I have this problem as well, I get it fixed by flashing a different modem everytime it brakes. Rather annoying issue. Atm running cm9 and lef radio. Hope this gets solved sometime soon.

I recently updated to 2.1 and for the most part, everything is working fine. Although when I place a call, my phone screen just goes black and it wont turn on unless i remove the battery...I tried to repair and i still have the same problem, is there anway to fix this?
Also: I tried to re-flash and update, and still get this problem....
Try updating your baseband or flash another rom im not sure if its gonna work but give it a try

Most likely ur baseband
didnt have the same issue with my friends phone but sometimes she cant send txts that are long any ideas thanks in advance
happen to me... but after using another rom.. the prob. seems to be gone.. give it a try
I tried switching Roms and still the same error, even upgraded the baseband and still no luck...Could there be a problem with the phone or sim card? also is there a way to upgrade or remove the default dialer?
Did u clear all cache before placing new rom..

I figured out the problem..I noticed it works fine when my earphones are plugged in, then shuts off when there removed.Is there a way to fix the Proximity sensor during a call?
While on an outgoing call, I can hear my contacts, but my contacts cannot hear me... Anyone else has/had this problem and know of a solution? Btw, I'm on the 351 build and rooted. Thanks in advance!

What steps have you taken to troubleshoot this?
Tried with the speakerphone on?
Tried with a wired headset?
Tried with a bluetooth headset?
Did you recently install any apps?
When did this start?
This started a few months ago (even with stock), but I always thought It had something to do with "Total Recall" (a phone recorder app)... but after finally uninstalling Total Recall and clearing cache, the problem continued. I also tried everything u mentioned and everything works perfectly. It's only when I use just the phone its self to make calls I run into this prob.

Install StreakMod Recovery and make a nandroid backup.
Reset your phone using the reset in the settings under Privacy. Test the phone. If it works resinstall your apps one by one to check. If you still have the same problem after a reset with no apps installed I would suspect a hardware problem.
Will give it a shot. Thanks.

Do you ever just bump the mute button with your cheek? This is a good possibility if they can't hear you halfway through the conversation (sometimes my head falls off the light sensor causing the screen to turn on).
You know what?... that's a good possibility. Thanks

Yes I have the same problem. I traded my HTc desire for dell streak stock rom not rooted. 5 inch is great, really great. But at leat one in seven calls I can hear the other person, but that person not me.
The lock screen is also unresponsive, same 1 out of 7, I just can't answer, because the slider won't slide.
Sometimes the screen is also unresponsive in general, especially the lower part, I have to change to landscape mode and then hit the kill all apps button, after wich the screen works fine again.
First I thought these were problems caused by the stock music player, but now I dunno anymore. (music quality is much better than on the desire by the way)
also bluetooth calling works really bad. People always complain about the echo of their voice. I tried 3 differents headsets. Bluetooth music works great though.
Maybe this streak is just bad model. No wonder The guy wanted to trade.
I faced the same issue on my Streak5. For almost 3 weeks i was chasing this issue and was absoultely fed-up. Actually i had recently changed the sim card for my telephone operator, and i thought that was the issue, so i fought with the telecom operator to get it changed but no difference. Then i suspected some software is screwing up, so i went through all the installed software and jotted down every software that had some audio/mic relation. Finally in the list i most suspected a call recorder software called "Call Recorder Free" by Clever Mobile and BOOM ! I uninstalled it and that was the culprit indeed ! My phone is working perfectly fine now ! Please beware of this or any such software.
you guys could try to use the olleh 407 ROM or use the custom ROM where usually custom ROM is the best alternative for streak...
My SGS2 stopped vibrating. Tried flashing, un-rooting, restoring stock and factory settings. None of these worked.
I am inclined to think that it is a hardware problem.
Has anyone else been dealing with issue? I read some posts on XDA regarding this matter but they were software related as opposed to hardware. Can anyone post instructions on how to fix it or provide any solutions for this issue?
If its hardware, why not flash stock, remove binary flash count with USB jig, and return for warranty?

Cannot get jig in Palestine. Bought the phone from the UK. Sending it back will be problematic. I will look for a repair shop.
Thanks for the quick reply
That's a "bummer" (bad luck). You could make a jig, but as you said that it would be problematic to return. Hope you can sort it easily. Sorry, can't think of anything of use right now.

hey there,
i got the same problem. no more vibrating at all. not with calls or notifications and not as haptic feedback. it started today (was still working in the morning), though i did not drop the phone or anything.
i am still hoping too find that it's a sw-problem. but all potential solutions i find do not help. so i guess i have to contact samsung.
but before i do that i have to get rid of all "hacking".
could you plz tell me what i have to do?
i have now cm9 20120402 nightly.
but i still have a cwm-recovery-backup of the original touchwiz (gingerbread).
-so first i make a backup of my current rom via cwm and of all my apps via titanium and store everything on my pc.
-i flash my touchwiz-backup
-i get one of those: http://www.amazon.de/s/ref=nb_sb_no...ld-keywords=Samsung+Galaxy+S2+USB+Jig&x=0&y=0 , plug it in, wait til its done and remove it again.
after that, samsung will never know i "messed" with the phone??
or do i have to consider/do something else?
tyvm!!

I have the same issue.
When I was on my stock 2.3.5, I found a workaround:
- go into test mode (dial *#0*#)
- find the vibrate button, when you press it, it shouldn't work like you expect
- go back
- plug in your headphones and push the cable a bit to the left
- test vibrate again - this time it should work
- pull the cable out while vibrating, still pushed to the left, vibrations should stay on
I know it sounds crazy but it seems the hardware part that controls the vibrations is near to the jack port - excessive use of headphones, like it was case, must have damaged it somehow.
However, now I'm on CM9, so no test mode for me, I'm achieving the same effect by bashing the back button, so I get semi-constant vibration. I know, It's ridiculous.
Have the same problem here, I think it's software related because the shut down vibration stopped working when I flashed CM9 ICS, I can't remember if it was working anywhere else though. But now I'm back to 2.3.5 and it's not working at all. Did a Factory Reset, Cleaned Cache before and after the flash. Also used the Jig to reset my counter. Any clues?
I am experiencing the same issue.
Yesterday, I downgraded from 4.0.3 back to 2.3.5 as I was having a lot of problems with ICS. Now, my phone works fine again except for the fact that it does not vibrate anymore. (Which it did fine in 4.0.3 and before in 2.3.5)
I tried the trick Lechium06 mentioned in this thread but that did not work for me.
Anyone else having this issue? More important, anyone have a solution???

I saw something similar on CM9 thread, they said it could be a "bad flash", not a corrupted rom but the lack of proper cleanup before and after the flash. But I cleaned up everything before and after and I don't like reconfiguring the whole phone again for nothing.
it happend again.
dont recall what i did or if i did something last time at all. but it worked for over a year now. and now, my sgs2 doesnt vibrate at all, i tried all possible settings, tested with z-device and rebooted. nothing.
apprechiate any hint!
thx!!

AW: [Q] Vibrate function doesn't work anymore, hardware issue
since i had that before, i ruled out a hardware issue. it happend when i played with the system settings. but as i sayed, i tried to reverse everything i did. now after i updated to 0206 and wiped cache and dalvik, still no vibration.
is there anything i could have missed?
is there a possibility to reset all settings to default without deleting all my data?

I assume since your posting in xda developers that you are rooted?
If so, just back up data with titanium backup app and factory reset, setup system and then restore USER apps and data only.

Did you install another rom?
My vibration for example didn't work with some cm10.1 nightlies
it started in cm10.1 20130203. then i tried wipe cache and dalvik. nothing. then i updated to 0206 (wiped cache and dalvik again) > still nothing. went to bed. got up. everything ok! its vibration again! i am 100% sure, it did not work, when i left it on my desk last night. this morning, i checked for missed calls and it took a moment until i realized: i got haptik feedback back on patternunlock and keystrokes! checked ringtone-vibration: fine as well!
dont ask me how! would still like to know for myself.
thx,
kws
AW: [Q] Vibrate function doesn't work anymore, hardware issue
call me stupid!
suddenly this evening my phone stopped vibrating again. then i realized: quiet hours! i turned off haptik feedback at night.
could slap myself. at least ill find this thread again, next time i screw it again....

Hey,
I have a problem with the upper speaker (the one used during calls etc). Sometimes it simply stops working until I restart the phone. The other speaker is working fine. The other side can always hear me.
I can't figure out where the problem lies. I've had the same problem on Omega v33/Perseus 27a, however I did a MegaWipe followed by fresh install of Omega v34/Perseus 27a/JKay. Previously I thought it was caused by custom dialer, however now I'm using the stock one. I blamed ac1d sound mod for it, but now I'm not using it anymore and still the same issue. I've tried plugging in and out headphones after rebooting, but its working fine.
Any ideas what can cause it?
Anyone?
Go to service center ...its hardware fault.
You sure? It only happens sometimes and reboot helps

But as u said u already tried to hard reset any change your ROM too....if this is software problem then it should solved by factory reset or changing a rom

It could be some app (i used titanium backup restore) or maybe kernel related. I need to figure out what's causing it, I kinda doubt hw is causing it though
You'll find it probably is hw fault most mods or kernels shouldnt break the front speaker man

Yeah this is a hardware fault. Its happened to me once before. It is something to do with the call audio processing. I reflashed my device 15 times with different roms before sending it for repair and none fixed it.
Luckily their service is fast. I had my phone back within five days.

I remember there were often issues with lack of audio during calls in early CM10 for example. There is still a hope its software-related
I have the same issue but is only with Perseus Kernel
Hi Crunozaur,
I have the same issue with the Speaker but is only when i install the Perseus kernel (since alpha28.2)
Here is what i've done to replicate the issue:
Turn on the phone
Test if the speaker works by making a call
Plug the Headset (any headphones will work also)
listen to music, Fm Radio, even a call with the headset will work
Unplug the Headset or Headphones
Make a call
I've tried with the following ROMS:
FoxHound 1.6 to 1.8
Android Revolution HD 17 to 19
Stock
In all of these this issue appears only when i install the Perseus kernel, with siyah, ninphetamin3 and Stock everything works fine.
It's a shame because in previous releases this was my favorite kernel.
Hope i've been helpfull.
Hi all,
For a long time I have being using CM and CM based rome like Slim. Recently (since 4.2.1 and up) I have very annoying issue that is preventing me on using these ROMs as a daily drivers. Namely when my phone boots up I can place only a couple of outgoing calls before they start being rejected with message "Call Ended". That is happening before even call is connected at 0:00. I have tried to google for the problem and have found only that some users on Motorola phones had similar issue back when GB rolled out and they have being able to temporarily correct it by deleting dialer cache. Sadly that doesn't work for me too. Only thing that I can do is to restart my phone...
Thank you for your help guys...

Actually I don't know why u r facing this problem may be flashing a different modem will solve your problem
And for reboot... If u have to reboot frequently use a app (forgetting its name) that will restart all your networks in one click without rebooting...

Thanks on ur answer but I really don't want to use some app every time I want to make a phone call. Is it possible that modem is causing issues because when I flash 4.1.2 I don't have these issues and also, like I mentioned before, I can make one or two calls after I reboot my phone.
