I do not listen, do not listen to me - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone.
For 4 days ago my sg3 started doing something really strange ...
For several months I have installed the 4.3 Russian in my GT -I9300 and beat of a sudden, every time I make or receive a cell phone call I do not listen to me or I can listen to anyone , as if the handset and the microphone will not work.
BUT , if they work, I tested with Google Talk, Skype , software to record audio and microphone headset works perfectly and works well , the problem is only with the phone calls .
Connect the phone for bt car , also with wired headset, handsfree , and in all cases is the same , the call is connected but can not hear me or hear anyone.
With all this I did a clean install , formatting system and all other partitions and take to put the 4.3 Argentina , the BUGML1 reformatting everything , install root and everything else , the phone works perfectly except for the same old problem , as if the embers in mute microphone and headphone volume without phone ..
Again, the phone works perfectly with Skype and other programs I only have this problem in the cellular network.
Also change of company , I tested clear and staff and nothing ..
Someone happened the same? , Anyone have any idea how to fix it? , I'm sure it's not hard because the mic / headphone funcona , so for me it is soft ..
I accept any kind of ideas and sugetencias .

You don't read either, don't post questions in the general forum. Report your own post and ask a moderator to move it for you.
You have a hardware fault in the the gsm circuit of your phone, new motherboard required.

Speaker Turns ON Automatically & No Sound

Hi Folks~
I have an XDA (QTEK 1010) had been working perfectly fine, until yesterday. After taking a call, when I tried to make a call I noticed the Speaker Phone activated automatically. I can't hear anything even the tried to play an MP3 from the Media Player but still didn't work.
Then I plugged in the Hands-Free, could listen to the Sound but the Mic seems to be have been disabled. (Even after plug-in of the Hands-Free, the Speakerphone still remains activated).
Pl. HELP !
Thanks !!
the manual say something about holding down the phone button turn the speaker phone on and off
Doesn't work, I've already tried it
Btw am using the following, pl. let me know if the ROM/Radio Stack Versions have to do something with it
DEVICE : QTEK 1010
Model No.: PW10A1
ROM Version: 3.18.04 ENG
ROM Date: 05/22/03
Radio Version: 3.25.00
Protocol Version: 32S54
Thanks !!
You could back up your data and try a hard reset, a bit drastic I know but its pretty useless as a phone at the moment.
Apologies for the Information in Bit & Pieces (am a newbie).
I've already checked after Soft & Hard Reset to the Device, the problem is still there.
Regards
This is exactly what happened to me back in November, after my little Xavier (an XDA) went for a swim in a flooded gutter.
I'll bet that if you go into the Wallaby BootLoader and try the diagnostics, it'll behave itself.
Unfortunately, the news was not good for me: $1500 to have it repaired.
"Liquid Ingression", they call it. *grumble*
I decided against it. My XDA still works as a soundless PDA (or, as it turns out, a hopelessly overpriced Universal Remote Control).

Can you guide me through ? How to run the diagnostics ?
Any help with the Diagnostics ?
I've tried over-writing the ROM, still didn't work ...

Thank you!
Let me try it out .. :arrow:
Still not working ..
Should I upgrade it to PPC2003 from the YOrk Kitchen ?? Will it help resolving the problem ?
I was thinking if it could be bcz of a loose connection inside the device (altough the device never fell down since I've got it).
Any help would be appreciated.

There's a good chance that it needs vendor support.
Take it back to the place you bought it... if you didn't drop it or get it wet, the warranty should cover it.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
The problem is that there is no Local Support for XDA in Pakistan yet ...
The Only Option I've got is to ship it internationally, which would be Expensive :roll:
Just tried Updating the Stack, didn't Work either .. Pretty Strange what else could happen.
If I attach a Hands-Free I get to hear the Sounds, but no Sounds on the Speaker .. person calling me can't hear me nor can I hear them. The Situtation is same I try to make a Call "Speaker Phone On" Pops-UP.
Though I tried to records the Recording, When I speak while the recoding on the playback just gives a huffing sound, no clear Audio.
Stuck with an Expensive XDA with No Phone & No Speaker Sound !!!
From the limited information provided to me by the repair centre, and looking over the details on xda-developers.com, I think your audio chip (or something related to it) may have fried. Mine was caused by water damage... a lot of water damage, at that...
Without the Sound, there's no charm in using it anyways ... bought a new Nokia 6600 a few days back and am using it ... now waiting for the Battery to be drained & when re-charged expecting a miracle to happen
I hope it works again !! I love the XDA !
Guess What .. the XDA is working perfectly fine now.
The only thing I did was to place it in my Drawer for a couple of Days .. Keeping it outta my Sight )
Miracles do happen ;-)
I have this problem now... Although it has not got wet?? Exact same as described as above...
Although in bootloader diagnostics the mic/speaker work fine. When booted in to windows I get the speaker phone coming on automatically, and no sound
Guys,
This problem drives me crazy constantly. The only explanation I found (by empirical approach) as follows:
My XDA works fine always except at winter, when I stay outside, and the XDA surface covered with steam condensate because of temperature differences. Condensate may not be seen visually, but some electronics inside has short circuit or changes in chains resistance which cause XDA to think that ‘speakerphone mode’ is on and misbehave.
To resolve this problem I just keep XDA in the worm place (like stay in apartment) for 30 min and / or plug it to charger which bring XDA to normal mode (by warming it up and thus removing steam condensate). No other ways found so far.
Regards, Andrey
Let me know if you know how to resolve it once and forever (do not advice me to thru it out :wink: )
This solution doesn't work for me
Amazing.. I've tried banging my XDA off of my desk, sticking all sorts of crap in the headphone socket (at this point, I didn't really care if I broke it more lol)... nothing worked..
Then just now, I thought.. hm.. I'll just blow as hard as I can in the little hole... I did this for a good five minutes.. and it now works

1. if you can make recordings with you prophet, that means the mic. of it is working fine,
2. can hear music, that mean the speaker in fine.....
3. well, did you mute your phone?
4. or alternatively, you may try to flash other roms, but,
5. you can also try to hard reset you phone before starting any further.. ^_^
Good Luck~~

1. You case did sound like the ear-piece of the prophet is getting aged. (hardware matters)
2. Aging of electrical components cause unstable performance of the hardware,
3. I am afraid you need to replace the ear-piece of your prophet to dig your way out.
( or re-flash you prophet will be an alternative, to see if really a chance for software problem)
if so, feel free to flash with the tool from my signature.Error free anyway~ ^^ )
Good Luck ~~

1. flash other rom (you may click and follow the steps @ my signature ),
2. bring your phone to repair
Strange, my other prophet (Xda Neo) has this issue, I think it is HW. I tried flashing Radio Rom, but no luck, also I changed earpiece but no luck. I will try flashing WM6, bluetooth headset works fine, very strange.

There are separate speakers for hands free and earphone on xda neo (htc prophet) as i know, i had a problem with hands-free (music) speaker but i could still hear when making calls.
I don't know if this is going to help you, or you already solved it.

After a different issue I sent my partners away under warranty to be fixed and when it was returned it came back with the exact same problem as you have and when we phoned them they asked for us to return it then a week later they sent it back saying whatever it was they thought was wrong with it wasn't covered under warranty and we had to use our insurance to have it repaired at a £50 excess cost to us :crying: we still don't know what or who caused it but it worked fine or the calls did before it was sent for repairs the first time

I'm having the same exact problem. Everything seems to work, i can receive calls and call but i can not hear the other caller and nor can they hear me. I've tried plugging in my earphones but that doesn't seem to work either.
Does anyone have a solution?
Please try two other tests ...
1. test if voice recorder works and you can hear back your recording.
2. test if there is any difference with the original headset which came with the S3!

[q] need urgent help!

Hello s2 users!
just wanted to say i have a really big problem and i really hope that someone can help me!!!!
today i bought my I9100 from a friend. the phone is from germany and it is like 4 months old
well when i was testing it (just to be sure it works) it worked flawlessly, i mean it was very awesome and i couldn't believe it worked so great
so i bought it and when i arrived home i formatted the external sd he gave me (2gb) and i restored the system to be as a new phone
after the restore process i installed viber, whatsapp, skype and an app called MagicUnlock that i had on my previous phone
after talking like 30 minutes, the audio just stopped. the speaker stop working in any possible way just no sound anywhere
but the audio works while headphones connected i mean when i connect the headphones, after 1-2 min the speaker works but not the headphones
i said about magicunlock app because it doesn't work (i'm pretty sure s2 has proximity sensor) but i can deal without that, i only said to know if it has a connexion
and when i extraqct headphones audio on speaker works for another 1-2 min then stops and have to make the process again
well now the speaker works without the headphones connected ( it is working for like 30 min) and hope i dont have the problem again but is there anyone who can give ANY answer to that what could be the problem? my friend is saying it could be because i restored the phone but i dont think it could...
SRY MY BAD ENGLISH
Could be
Best thing to find out all phone working corectly is reflash stock room again from here

Viber + Sony z2 + Galaxy Note 3 = annoying beeps sounds ??

Very weird situation happen only when i use viber between Sony z2 and Galaxy note 3 ,, every time i speak beeps sounds very loud coming out from headphone or from speakers when i use speakers. it only happen when i call my wife she has the Note 3 and i have the Z2,, it never happen with all other phones from my side and her side as well,, both phones are not rooted and everything original out the box,, Sony Z2 with .402 update and Note 3 with 4.4 Kitkat.
If anyone have this weird issue please comment here ...its very very annoying problems ,, i can't speak well in viber
Same issue

How are you finding the sound quality on Viber on the Z2?
I find it to be very quiet & I can barely hear the person I'm talking to & they can barely hear me, emailed Viber support but they weren't much use even though I pointed out that Viber on old Galaxy S3 was nice & loud in both voice & notifications sounds but on the Z2 it is way too quiet, tried Line & the sound is good on that but the app is bloated & the smileys are crap lol.

Same here. the sound quality is crap. very low sound.. when I am outside i open speaker and put it on my ear and barely can hear the sound.. And the sound of beeps always happen even with speaker on. I had before samsung phone galaxy mega 6.3 and the sound was awesome. Am thinking to buy bluetooth headset to use it instead of the phone
Yeah same here mate, even using it in speaker phone mode the sound is way too quiet & muffled. I'm gonna email their support again, would suggest you do the same. The more reports & complaints they get about it will make them do something about it.

Any update? I am having same issue. Voice recordings in Viber are very poor. I have contacted online Sony support. And actually it happens not only in Viber. And they told me it's hardware issue. And advised to do firmware restore and hardreset. But my wife has Z2 too with same issues and both phones from different countries, different stores. May be Sony uses new way to record sounds or poor support of microphones in API.

No. I didn't do any of those yet.
OK, guys, just did software repair. Nothing changed. Don't go for it and don't waste your time.
Well I emailed Viber support about the 4th-5th Sept & only got a reply from them yesterday about a month & a half later asking me to install a debug version that will wipe my message history, they suggest to email message history but AFAIK there is no way to restore it.
Pretty pathetic support if you ask me.
at least it's good they replied you.. They didn't reply me till now and it has been more than a month.. now am thinking to buy bluetooth headset just to get rid of this annoying problem but then even with bluetooth headset you can't answer viber calls directly like normal calls.. i read on other threads someone from viber support team said they don't yet support bluetooth headset.. as if viber not everyone use it and majority use normal calls. it's really ridiculous

Root and backup data. Then restore data after you install the new version?

Yeah I can use MyBackup Pro to back up the viber data but after restoring it viber won't even open & just force closes right away.
