[Q] One X calling audio issue

Hi guys, i have just encountered this problem, it was fine in the morning but gone wrong later then. The calling audio is not working and also the no sound from callers when answer the call. However Everything works fine, The in-call vol is max, songs can be played, calling using speaker on is viable as well as when headset is put on. The normal call is just not working even though it is factory reset
Mind to figure out what problem is this? thanks!
Freddy

Try flash the latest radio , and another kernel , if this doesn't work you should send back you phone . Have you been in a high humidity environment or drop water on in ?

Same here. Any ideas yet??

Hi everyone!
I took some time this weekend to look into this problem again. I tried different roms, including different ICS and JB and even went back to stock (nand backup from first day). No success, still no sound from the front speaker when calling.
While flashing i tried both with sim card in the phone and without, i always did full wipe and flashed boot.img from fastboot. Still not working. No app that needs this speaker works, i also tried skype and talk. So i am out of options now. Is there anything i can do? Would it help to flash a different kernel?
I guess the hardware got broken somewhere along the line. Would HTC fix it under warrenty? Does anyone have experiences with that?
Thanks again for all your kind help! I know this might be cross posting but im going to try and get my problem solved in other threads as well.

I had the same issue and got it fixed at the HTC service center. I also had wifi fixed and changed my LCD since there were yellow spots on my screen. Since the phone was under warranty everything was done for free.

Ok thanks, i will try HTC sercive center nearby. Though im on unlocked, rooted device so im not sure how they will react... will report!

You'll probably want to return it to stock to make life easier.

[Q][Help] Phone constantly "reboots", stock firmware, have logcat!

Alright, so my girlfriend's Samsung Galaxy S II started to go through these weird partial reboots several weeks ago (maybe even months). The phone would randomly go black, play the stupid shutdown/startup (dont remember which) jingle...then just simply be at the lock screen with a crossed out circle where the signal bars would be (for just a couple of seconds). When this happened, I used to just tell her to shutdown the phone, take out the battery, and let it sit for about 30 seconds, then put everything back together and start it back up. This seemed to work, which made me think it might have just been a software or at worst a memory issue of some kind.
This issue was always intermittent, but now, no matter what I do, it just keeps looping this "restarting" problem. I can't access any internal memory space from my computer because in the time it takes to connect, it just "reboots" again. I made a logcat of the phone up until the "reboot", and in doing so noticed that when I would browse the phone via adb shell, I saw no mount for the sd card...which then lead me to believe maybe it was an issue with that. I checked the sd card for corruption (and prior to even using it, checked that all blocks were read/writable (legit)), but that led nowhere.
Anyways, not having any idea where to go next, nor where to begin or what to look for in the 5000+ lined logcat, I turn to xda with hopes of getting some sort of help. Thanks in advance for any I get!
EDIT: Oops, some other important notes I didn't mention (other than in title); this is running stock firmware, only OTA. I tried once to upgrade her to ICS via Kies, but the upgrade would never complete. She also refused to let me root her phone...so unless there is a stock recovery mode, her phone has none...

bump, as its been a week and no responses. If anyone has any ideas or can figure out whats wrong from the logcat, please help.

Almost 3 weeks...no answer...isn't there at least 1 person who has an idea or can deduce one from the logcat? Pretty soon I'm gonna have to tell her to give up and get it "fixed" (ie, swapped for a refurb with most likely all her data lost)...

Looking at the logcat if it is accurate the problem is overheating and it is shutting itself down. That's why it keeps rebooting from I read but I could be wrong. Also looks like it has wakelock issues. Lot of wakelock errors in logcat. Some app or apps are causing the wakelock issue find them and remove them that might solve the problem.

i say try to odin back her phone to stock on here there a good post for it to get her back and if she had Gmail sync there shouldnt be a problem unless she really dont want to download everything again i say give odin a shot and then from there upgrade through kies its tricky you have to make sure you have 50% battery life or more and kies errrors out sometimes but it does work i update my friends phone as he does not like all the root stuff lol so i always your kies after a couple errors it will work and thats your best option if she doesnt want to loose anything kies will back it all up for her and are you sure that power button aint sticking sounds like you have a looping issue are you able to go into download mode or are you familiar with this ?

Idk how to read logcats but another idea could be you have the sticky power button issue. I think if it was overheating u would feel it and mention it in the op.

I used to have this problem when my phone was on ICS. I found that putting it back to GB, and using custom JB roms fixed it. I'd try those.

For starters, thanks everyone for the responses! After this long, its really great to see so many in one day!

Thats what I thought, because it seemed to get exceptionally hot before "rebooting"...at first...then I was noticing it "rebooting" when clearly cold. If it is indeed overheating like I had thought in the very beginning, is there anything I can do about it? What does it use for heat conductivity and displacement? And for that matter, I would think if it was overheating though, it would actually reboot, not the half-ass semi-reboot its been doing...
And what is wakelock exactly that it would cause an issue? Only apps I see using it are WootWatcher, KeyguardViewMediator and PowerManagerService.

I would use odin...but the phone doesn't stay on long enough to do much of anything before "rebooting". Also, she is already using stock firmware + OTA updates. And her contacts are not what I am worried about, its her photos and such. This is the very reason why I hate internal memory for phones...
And I'm pretty sure its not a sticky power button, I had seen that being a common issue when researching before posting. And again, if I have not been clear, its not exactly "rebooting", just semi-rebooting; phone starts up, crap starts running, a min or 2 later, phone acts like its restarting (plays sound and all), then just comes back to the lock screen immediately...I can't really describe it much more than that.
And no, I'm not familiar with "download mode"

Ya, like I said in the reply above this, I don't think its the sticky power button problem...but I could always be wrong. I only didn't mention over heating because I felt I did a good job of ruling it out.

Its running GB atm, never updated to ICS via Kies...

I wish I could help you further but i can say one thing, the rebooting that your describing is called a "hot reboot". I know what ur talking about and others will too if u use that term. Good luck.

Can't hear person during call & person can't hear me.

Hello and thank you in advance to all. I have a t989,
I run AOKP Galaxysbean V_12
KKO Kernel Governor is Smartass V2 and I/O is deadline
UVLI4 Radio
Problem: I know for a fact this is not a hardware problem, because I have went through 3 phone replacements because of stupidity and learning how to root phone, flash roms, yada, yada, etc. And with each of these phones this persistent problem occurs where all of the sudden at any given time, I will go to make a call and nothing. I can't hear the ring of another person's number, my voicemail, etc. The person does get the call, and when they answer, I still cannot hear them, and they cannot hear me.
Resolution: Ways I have fixed this before are with the first and second phone I flashed over a new radio, (previously UVLE1, UVLH1, 4G Blaze) and it fixed the calling upon reboot. Also I had flashed custom roms, or restored previous Nandroid backups and it worked again. (Little annoying doing this every 3 or 4 days. Though today, this happened with my newest phone, and flashing a radio did not work nor did restoring a Nandroid. This time I had to flash a new custom rom, then it worked. Then I flashed back over the Nandroid and it still works as of now.
Question: Could this be because of the kernel? Or the rom?

same here

Me and my wife have the same issues. We both have GS2s but hers is stock unrooted and mine is running CM10.1. Been dealing with Tmobile for months without success, swapping out cut down on how often its happening but did not fix it. Tmobile is stumped, very annoyed by this issue.

Not sure what's causing the problem but it seems jellybean 4.2 has fixed this issue. Try flashing AOKP 4.2 and make sure noise suppression is enabled and call this number 9143388802. The third option is an echo test and fourth option let's you record a playback to listen to how you sound. If you sound normal and people are still complaining then its their phone.

I've come to the conclusion that its a rom problem because for me it happens with only certain roms. Ive tried all the rom kernel combinations and different radios but the only fix I've found is to retire that particular rom, no matter how good it is. Smoothness aint gonna get the cops or the fireman to your house. The only roms that have worked for me as far as call quality are, for some reason all of TheLastSidekick's Kangs, Darkside evolution 3, Sky Jellybean, Rushing's Bulletproof,and both of the 10.1 variants we have. The strange thing is I can't recall any call quality issue's when flashing roms from the Skyrocket thread. For instance I get the worst call quality ever using Jedi Jelly, but I'm crystal clear using Embryo from the Skyrockets thread, so much so I wont even try our version of the same rom.

I blame T-Mobile network. This would happen to me all the way back to my old flip phones. Every other call or so would do this. I've always put up with it cuz I like T-Mobile customer service.

I actually just realized this problem persisted when I would turn on the phone and try to make a phone call to quickly. After becoming aware of this. I turned the phone off and allowed it to fully boot back up, and it worked again.

I can confirm that this is the problem. I rebooted my phone, called someone right away, and couldn't hear anything. Next I let it load for 40 seconds after boot, and I can hear fine.
Now we have to tell t-mobile this.

This is not the issue, it also happens to phones that have been on for minutes/hours/days.

Is there any updates on this issue? My wife is having this problem on her phone, and it seem like it's been getting worse...

I found out with my problem. It was when I tried to make a call to soon. It would do this. As long as I have let the phone load for a minute or two after boot, I haven't had any more problems. My problem may be different from yours tho. Hope this helps.

I'm having this issue, and its not from calling too quick after a boot.
It came on out of the blue the evening of March 6 ...
I have the Tmob phone but it's unlocked and I'm using a Straight Talk AT&T SIM, connected to the AT&T network in Sierra Vista, AZ.

Ok... I need help. I am such a novice at this stuff but I find myself so very interested in the world of root, and the freedom that it brings. Basically my entire knowledge of computers..... Is Android, and worse than that, I'm self taught... Please don't run!! I'm a super quick study. Ok now to my problem, I started off rooting my T 989 surprisingly enough with absolutely no issues at all, or at least that I could tell. Ran beautiful and super smooth, then I went app hoarding and installed A fonts package installer, opened it, it installed about 85 prcnt. done and crashed. Never made it back. The novice, and the dumbass in me, FREAKED! and did an uneducated, no experience attempt to make recovery....... 4 times needless to say that I COMPLETELY wiped the entire phone. I had a friend bless me and show me a thing or two and I successfully managed to flash one of your Roms to it and I must tell you that I supremely thankful to all who n these projects.... MAD RESPECT to all of you. So the one issue I am clearly having is everyone I speak to says I sound like I'm on speaker or just can't generally hear me. Been through the settings a couple of times and I am pretty sure that I have them correct, and I have not touched anything that I wasn't sure about, and I definitely have completely refrained from pimpin my kernel. I really just need someone who can spend a little time setting me straight on some unfamiliars. Also just have a few stupid questions that won't be the least bit stupid after I get them answered. Any time any one can lend would be greatly appreciated and someone's good deed for the day. Thanks for allowing me to vent guy's

Just leave me some thanks. Under your phone settings, there should be a noise surrpression box. Make sure it is check marked. Every time I do that people have said I sound better. What do you want to do? Change it back to custom rom? P.S. ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING.. ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS!.. Google will solve many questions too. If nothing helps or you need to be walked through some processes, message me.

Enable noise suppression in phone settings. Fixed my problem.

Random sluggish performance that requires reboot?

Hello everyone. I've been experiencing a problem lately that has me scratching my head. The phone for no reason and at random times because super sluggish like the frame rate or something is super low.. It seems to be most apparent in the launcher.. It happens at random even if the phone is cool or hot. Happens on touchwiz launcher as well as nova launcher.. Clearing ram and open apps doesn't work... The only thing that makes the phone go back to normal is a reboot. This also happens on any custom ROM. With stock or custom kernel.. So.is this a CPU hardware problem? Has anyone else had this happen? It's already been happening quite often and its becoming annoying. Factory resets don't solve it either as it comes back randomly. If anyone can shed some light please do.

I would contact T-Mobile it could be a phone problem if you are seing it after an Odin back to stock. That would be my only suggestion is an Odin back but since you already did that I would see about getting the phone switched out

Explain to tmobile what's happening and let them know you want a new device. they are very easy to work with and tmobile won't make you prove anything. Ive been with tmobile for ten years now. Trust me they are easy to work with if you explain the situation and let them know it clearly interferes with your ability to use the device as it should be used. You should have ZERO problems with returning the device. By the way sounds like your device DOES have serious problems so id call tmobile as soon as possible. They MIGHT try trouble shooting it FIRST as this is procedure they HAVE to follow simply let them know after trouble shooting that your issue IS STILL PRESENT and they will exchange your device for a new one without issue...so call them asap. You won't have any trouble. You will see. They are very EASY to work with so NO WORRIES. Call and get your device exchanged NOW. Hope this helps you out. I've had a LOT of expirence working with tmobile. It won't be a problem. Youll see. Best wishes to you and hope you get this matter resolved today.

I'll have to agree here. I've had many issues over the years (anyone remember the LG G2X?), and they will stand by you. Sometimes you have to squawk loudly, but they want you to be happy...
Unlike Sprint.....I hate Sprint
Edit: If you're not happy with their response, just escalate it to Customer retention...they have the real power.

I had bad lag when I was trying to text, send an email, or anything involving using the keyboard. I flashed a ROM thinking that would take care of the issue . It didnt, still had hang ups and lag. I flashed back to stock and received a new phone and havent had an issue yet.

No sound on earpiece while in call, speakerphone works fine...

-The story -
So I bought my mi mix 2 off swappa used and it was pretty much mint condition. When I received it it was on latest miui 11 global locked bootloader no root.. All worked fine for about three weeks. I ended up buying windows 10, again, which made me throw up a lil in my mouth. I did this so that I could use the mi unlock tool to unlock my bootloader. The java Linux tool no longer works to unlock if you use Linux so rn kinda forced to buy Windows. So I unlocked bootloader and then installed twrp and made a backup like I do with every phone since Android began. I then flashed HAVOC 3.1 using latest twrp recovery. I quickly realized my speaker decided to stop working in the earpiece soon after that. I ran some tests using apps and the earpiece speaker works, but NOT in a call. :crying:
-The problem I'm having in detail-
When I make a call to anyone they can hear me but I can hear NOTHING at all. Not low volume, but no sound whatsoever. If I switch to speaker phone however I can hear them and they can hear me fine. The top speaker that doesn't work during calls works when I tested it but refuses to work while on any call.
So naturally I Google searched the world for a few days hoping to find a fix. Then I thought maybe it was my recovery, maybe it was firmware I used, maybe it's a rom bug...etc...etc... I never proved it to be any of the things I thought it could be. I've installed other roms and I get the same thing with them. I've tried other firmware and same deal. I've disabled encryption, used magisk and not used magisk... Anyway, you get the picture.
Would anyone happen to know something I can do to fix this? I read some people touch up where top speaker is during a call ..That didn't work. ? I did 29 reboots and that did nothing. I checked the ear piece and cleaned what I could and that did nothing. I've wiped several different ways and used orange fox recovery and twrp different versions of both and that did nothing.
Please someone who's smart chime in and tell me I'm dumb and all I have to do is xyz and I can hear again from the earpiece on calls. Can it be a defective speaker? If so why does the speaker work fine on anything but NOT when making a call? Can it still be a defective speaker?
I did read TONS of reports of sound issues on Xiaomi devices across the board. That didn't make me smile much.. Anyway any advice or thoughts or anything would sure be extremely helpful and I'd forever be grateful. I hope you all have a good day and your speaker never acts stupid like mine is on my phone.

Would anyone happen to know something I can do to fix this? I read some people touch up where top speaker is during a call ..That didn't work. I did 29 reboots and that did nothing. I checked the ear piece and cleaned what I could and that did nothing. I've wiped several different ways and used orange fox recovery and twrp different versions of both and that did nothing.
Please someone who's smart chime in and tell me I'm dumb and all I have to do is xyz and I can hear again from the earpiece on calls. Can it be a defective speaker? If so why does the speaker work fine on anything but NOT when making a call? Can it still be a defective speaker?
I did read TONS of reports of sound issues on Xiaomi devices across the board. That didn't make me smile much.. Anyway any advice or thoughts or anything would sure be extremely helpful and I'd forever be grateful. I hope you all have a good day and your speaker never acts stupid like mine is on my phone.

Try the latest version of Havoc 3.0, not 3.1. my device also has an unspeakable error on the call of messenger with most of the android 10 rom, i can hear the voice of the other side, but they can't hear me, after trying a lot of android 10 rom, i found only havoc os 3.0 is not making that error. Though it's not your fault, I think you should try it.

Mine is I can't hear them but they can bear me. What the hell is going on. Hahaha! If all else fails I'm going to get a new top receiver speaker put in at a shop close by. It does appear that many Xiaomi devices have had sound issues and have had speakers replaced. If you search on YouTube Xiaomi no sound on call or speaker replacement you'll see MANY videos on "how to." Quite a few videos specifically for mi mix 2. They should let us upgrade at least to the mix 2s for free.
I'll try 3.0 havoc but I've flashed around on Android 10 and 9 and problem hasn't gone away. Still zero sound on my end on calls but all speakers work doing anything else. Appreciate the recommendation. Thanks for commenting. Later today's ill flash 3.0 and see what's up. Then I may pull a few kernels from other roms and switch em out with whatever I'm on and see if I can't get something going that way.
I will also post a log of me on the phone talking and maybe someone can see something that's wrong... Hope so anyway..

-The story -
So I bought my mi mix 2 off swappa used and it was pretty much mint condition. When I received it it was on latest miui 11 global locked bootloader no root.. All worked fine for about three weeks. I ended up buying windows 10, again, which made me throw up a lil in my mouth. I did this so that I could use the mi unlock tool to unlock my bootloader. The java Linux tool no longer works to unlock if you use Linux so rn kinda forced to buy Windows. So I unlocked bootloader and then installed twrp and made a backup like I do with every phone since Android began. I then flashed HAVOC 3.1 using latest twrp recovery. I quickly realized my speaker decided to stop working in the earpiece soon after that. I ran some tests using apps and the earpiece speaker works, but NOT in a call. :crying:
-The problem I'm having in detail-
When I make a call to anyone they can hear me but I can hear NOTHING at all. Not low volume, but no sound whatsoever. If I switch to speaker phone however I can hear them and they can hear me fine. The top speaker that doesn't work during calls works when I tested it but refuses to work while on any call.
So naturally I Google searched the world for a few days hoping to find a fix. Then I thought maybe it was my recovery, maybe it was firmware I used, maybe it's a rom bug...etc...etc... I never proved it to be any of the things I thought it could be. I've installed other roms and I get the same thing with them. I've tried other firmware and same deal. I've disabled encryption, used magisk and not used magisk... Anyway, you get the picture.

Clearing the phone app cache data help me to overcome this but this problem in 3.1 occurs more often..

I never thought that my sound issue was related to havoc in any way I am almost positive its a broken speaker. Looks as though that type of thing happens often on this device and other xiaomi devices. Google search receiver speaker replacement really fast and watch how many things show up about it. Its all over. I'm going to get a replacement. Using my moto g7 power rn as my main phone so I can have conversations and hear on my end. I always clean flash everything I flash. I never fail to wipe data, system, cache, delik cache on any install.

I have the same problem after installing Havoc 3.1. I tried updating the firmware...and rolling back the firmware to 9.5.16 to no avail

This is just too strange. So maybe my issue does have something to do with installing Havoc 3.1. That was the first rom I flashed after I unlocked my bootloader and speaker worked fine on latest MIUI Global rom before... I wonder if it's possible to break a speaker due to a rom installation? I've never heard of that before. I thought surely it was just the rom and was a bug or a firmware problem. I flashed all kinda firmwares afterwards in latest twrp and also sideloaded a few to see if maybe something wasn't right with recovery and like you say it did not change anything at all. I still get zero sound on my receiver speaker while on a call.
I'm going to try a few more things and see if it does anything. If I find a fix or something that allows me to hear anything at all out of my end on receiver speaker I'll most definitely add it here in a post and to the op. Seems like there would be more people than us if it had something to do with Havoc... Idk. Appreciate your information. I hope we can get this fixed soon. I never even hardly used my phone when the speaker worked. ? I bought it used off swappa and about two weeks later unlocked and flashed Havoc and no sound during calls on my end.

Did you flash magisk also? Maybe that caused the problem...
I'm using Google phone but have also tried the stock Android phone as well as a couple of different versions of firmware. If no solution emerges I'm going to disassemble the phone and see if the earpiece has lost connection

I used an app off Google play store to test speakers and my receiver speaker works but refuses to work during a call on my end. It did have sound come through loud and clear when I ran the tests I did when it first happened. I've flashed using magisk stable, canary, formatted data, used different firmwares, everything know to mankind and searched around and tried several things online and nothing. I've been trying to boot the Android 10 GSIs to see if that makes any difference but have had no luck using the same vendor and boot everyone used on pie GSIs so I snatched some from different roms and still no luck on GSIs that are Android 10. Lemme find link to test all i used and I'll return and post a link. Brb

You should add your findings to the havoc thread...if there are 2 people with the exact same problem maybe the developers will take notice and investigate

I doubt it and I did make a post there a while back about it. There are many others there ok that thread who reported sound issues and I wanted to confirm what for sure caused it before I put the blame all on a rom... The speakers on this device have had issues MANY times based on all the reports i read all over the internet. But if I can confirm exactly what it is I'll dang sure be very open about it online and let the world know in hopes that if it was something I did maybe someone else won't and I can somehow prevent it. But I did make a post there when it occurred. Search my username on the thread and you'll see it.
When you set a ringtone does sound come from your top speaker? On my device it does. Just curious. See if you can hear any sound selecting different ringtones. ?

I did find some info about pixel users who had this problem, in that case the problem was caused by file association issues with the phone app and Google play services. Some people were able to fix by removing the permissions of Google play services. I tried this approach but many of the permissions cannot be disabled

I'm going to clean flash now after I do a backup and I'll install havoc and NanoDroid which eliminates Googles hold on all our devices. Once I get all setup I'll run some tests and see if maybe this solves it.
NanoDroid: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3584928
[MODULE/SYSTEM] NanoDroid 22.5.1.20200102 (microG, pseudo-debloat, F-Droid + apps)
No difference

On my other device , Moto G7 Power see the 8th post here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/development/rom-havoc-os-3-2-t4058987
This time I haven't had it occur on G7 Power but when I saw that guys post I had a flash back. :/

I suspect FW issue. Started not using top speaker after SW update. 10.0.6 When I receive a call and press the volume button, the 'earpiece' icon bar appear. I suspect the phone switch the sound to the 'earpiece' even if there is no earpiece. I even switched Bluetooth off, and still happens. The phone thinks there is a earpiece/headset connected even if there is none. I think Xiaomi Mi devs should post a solution or update. The issue is wide spread.
[edit 17Jul20]
OK, it happened again today. No sound from top speaker when making or receiving calls. Had to switch to speaker phone. Then I cleared the 'Contact and dialer' app cache memory. (And for good measure the other caller and dailer apps also. TOP SPEAKER CAME ALIVE AGAIN!! So I am pretty sure its a bug/memory issue.
What I did: Long press the dailer icon - tap on App info - press 'Clear data' icon and select to clear chache memory.

What's crazy is this happened on my device just after I wiped data, system cache and flashed HAVOC which was the first rom that I flashed when I got this device. And I flashed my firmware and it did nothing at all. I'm getting a another speaker from eBay this week. They're only like $3 US. Gonna replace it and see what happens. ?
