Hey I've been havin some issues where people have a hard time hearing me when I'm talking...I'm cutting out as well and I've had 3 bars at the time of the incident, could it be my modem isn't very good? I flashed the ec05 but maybe reflash It or download a new file?

Hey all. As with most people who have been giving DK28 a good run for its money, I've been experiencing the bug where you cannot get any audio out of the headset without first toggling the speakerphone. This started for me when I gave Cyanogenmod a try. I odin flashed back to stock DK28 (vanilla sprint flash), and was still having the problem. It actually got so bad that my headset speaker only kind of works now. I pretty much am forced to leave it on speakerphone for the entire conversation, or else audio drops out.
This became such an annoyance that I went ahead and flashed back to stock DI18 with Odin (making sure to use the correct MD5 and everything), and the problem still followed me.
At this point, it is impossible for me to have a conversation without having the speakerphone on. It's quite embarrassing. I hate having such an amazing phone, with such a glaring flaw.
What am I missing? Have I completely borked my modem? Should I give Sprint a shot, and see if I can get a replacement?
Thanks!

TL;DR: MY SH!T BROKE!
Allllright.
I may have fixed it.
I used CW to apply the modem update from this thread. It would appear that my problem is resolved for both incoming and outgoing calls.
HUZZAH!
If anyone else is having this horrendously annoying problem, give that a shot and you should be good.
Love.

So I've had this issue for a long time now where my 3g radio will reset randomly (i think). What happens is that i lose 3g and the icon will disappear from the top bar. The phone makes a small sound (sounds like when you first power up the phone and it connects to the cell tower / 3g). Then about one second later it makes the same noise and then 3g turns back on. It takes it a few seconds to regain signal and then its usually fine. I know its the 3g because the problem stop when data is turned off, and also when wifi is on.
I've tried reflashing roms, reflashing my modem via odin, and even a factory reset. I can't seem to get this issue to go away. The only thing i can think of how i may have caused this issue was when upgrading to EC05 i forgot to include the pit file one time when flashing the modem with odin.
Any input or ideas would be greatly appreciated. I'm still learning when it comes to android so if I haven't tried it yet its because I either don't know about it or don't know how.

Its been happening to my phone for easily over a month now. And a friend of mine also has an epic that runs the exact same rom. Its also very annoying when playing music and videos cause it cuts out the sound to play the tone when it losses/gains 3g.

Does your friend's epic with the same ROM also.do this?
Do you BONSAI?
Actually I used to use bonsai. This problem started when I upgraded to i want to say 3.0. When the problem first started it also had a terrible battery glitch (when i restarted the phone i lost 50% battery. but a restore fixed this but left the 3g problem). I upgraded to 4.0 and the problem still hadn't been fixed. So thinking maybe it had something to do with the rom, I switched to Syndicate Rom Frozen and thats what I'm using now. My friend still has a DK28 Bonsai on his phone because I'd rather not somehow give him this annoying issue. But as of now his phone does not have this issue, so think it has to be my phone and not sprint.
Could flashing the modem .tar in odin without selecting the .pit file do this? I feel like it might have changed something it shouldn't. From what i recall it completed successfully without the .pit.
Edit: also thanks a lot for your help so far kenny
Very happy i got a quick response and that my thread wasnt just ignored.
Have you ever Odin'd back to stock DI18? Do that and let it update OTA to EC05 and see if that fixes it. Then flash your ROM and see if your issue returns.
Do you BONSAI?
When I switched from Bonsai to SRF I odin'd back to DI18/stock and it still didnt fix the issue. However I didn't let it update OTA and just odin'd from DI18 to EC05 then installed SRF. When i get the time to do all that ill give it a try doing the OTA and get back to you.

If you got the same issue with stock DI18 then you may have a flaky 3G radio in that phone. When you OTA maybe you should let Sprint look at it. You may get a new phone.
ok, i am really hoping someone can help me out here. so ever since froyo came out i have been having weird call problems, i will be on a phone call and randomly it will mute me. the mute button won't be activated and the only way to fix the problem is to toggle the speakerphone on/off. now i have tried several roms (syndicate, bonsai, ace) and they all have the same problem. i recently tried ace and it worked fine for a couple of days and then suddenly it did it this morning. i have also swapped out my phone and it still does it!
some people suggested playing with the voodoo sound options and none seemed to work.
if anyone has had this issue or knows of things i could try i would appreciate it extremely. this problem is driving me insane (along with all my friends who it constantly happens to while on the phone with me.)
thanks!
Moved to Q&A.
It could be a manufacturer defect? Does it happen on stock?

Only for about a day. I could try it longer. Wouldn't swapping the phone like I did cover a phone defect though?
This use to happen to me back on the DK28 build even DI18 I think but haven't seen it since official EB13 and even on EC05 now. That's weird. Did it start all of a sudden or has it been an ongoing problem? When did you get your phone? Oh wow you said it's a new one? Refurbished? WHen you got your new phone did you restore a backup from your old phone or start fresh?

i started fresh, except for a couple apps i restored settings for. but i didn't restore any system stuff. this happened right after froyo update for me. at first i thought it was a voodoo thin, but ive tried genocide with the updated voodoo, plus how can i be the only one having this problem. it makes no sense to me.
i guess i could try stock, but i mean i really don't want to run stock....ugh.
---oh new phone was straight from sprint about a week ago.
This is happening to me as well. I'm stock rooted froyo with all stock apps still in place. Very annoying. I never had this issue before the froyo update.
Anyone know of a fix for this yet?
I'm about to take a B.F.H. and "fix" the phone. My epic is doing this on every call I recieve or make.
Anyone have any ideas? I can't deal with this much longer. Really want to smash the phone. Guess I'll unroot and take it into bb or sprint...

yeah i got a new phone and it made no difference. good luck though!
[Q] This just started this morning. When I talk to someone they hear me at a very low volume and the mic cuts in and out. Also noticed when the phone rings it sounds really "snowy". Anybody have any ideas what could be wrong?
Running SFR 1.1.0
HC Fusion 2.1
Clean Kernel
I have a problem were either sides can't hear each other .... happens maybe 4/10 times... im also on SFR (i think we all know why xD)
Happens even more times on midnight... not sure what it is but yea i've done alot of Odins, Redownloads, Reflashes ... just gave up on it really.
Could be an issue with speaker/mic. Do a backup then flash back to stock. if it doesn't solve the problem then you'll have to go to sprint. You'd have to flash to stock anyway for them to look at your phone.
Hey guys,
This has been a big problem for me. My DHD often looses cell reception and it doesn't come back so I always have to activate then deactivate Airplane mode to get the bars back. Now first I have to say that this didn't use to happen when I was using the original firmware but for the past year I have been using many ROMs and I always have the same problem. For some ROMs I loose reception once or twice a day and for others more than five times. So if I don't carefully check my phone every hour I could miss phone calls.
I know some of you will tell me to flash the original ROM but really I can't go back from Jellybean to gingerbread. It would break my heart :crying:
So if you have any advice or solution to my problem I would really appreciate it!
Thanks.
anyone?
Try to learn about radios and maybe flash one, carefully...I'm clueless about those...but I think that's it.
