[Q] No sound during a phone call

I'm having an issue with my Xperia Play. During a phone call, I usually don't get sound unless I switch to speaker mode or I plug in earphones.
Sometimes it works, sometimes it only works after I switch back and forth the speakermode.
I wonder if it's a hardware or software issue. Anyone could help ?
edit: I think I had this issue after rooting and unlocking the bootloader but I can't be sure because I didn't spend a lot of time with the phone locked down.
edit2: I rooted by flashing Bin4ry's package. I read a bit about that and it seems it can have a negative effect on the baseband version not being the right one for my 2.3.3 firmware ?
Here are my version numbers:
Build: 4.0.A.2.368
Kernel: Doomlord #3
Baseband: 8x55A-AAABQMAZM-20302204-36

Bumping just in case. Someoe knowledgeable could see it.

I upgraded with flashtool to 2.3.4 and the issue is still there.

No sound during a phone call
Hello I have this issue too, I hope someone will recognize my post
While I dial a phone and press call (then earphone turns on) I hear a GSM signal sound (same as if you hear your phone signal in a PC speakers) instead of voice.
In service menu if I press Earphone test i hear this high frequency sounds too.
I HAVE already REPLACED BOTH CABLES WHICH CONNECT EARPHONE AND MOTHERBOARD (1.flex and 2. the one with front camera and earphone included).
So cable replacement DID NOT SOLVE it.
I thought it is SW stuff, but I FLASHED .62 ROM but it is STILL SAME.
New .80 BASEBAND DIDN'T HELPED to me.
Last time my GSM signal was crashing sometimes, If I tried to connect manually it told me that my sim card is not allowed to connect to my operator... something like that
my phone R800i and I don't remember when it started, I think in the morning after party last month
Any ideas what to do guyz? :crying: :crying:
Really want to solve this :cyclops:

Probably if you return to the Stock Version. Also make you have not by accidentally damaged the earpiece with water, even if you were sweating from you ear or something because it might not always be the cables that are wrong but some other HW problem.

Hello, I wrote it all in a previous post, my earpiece is new and .62 is stock ROM, In my opinion there is some HW problem in gsm signal modulation. I was in a smartphone-repair shop and they told me it will cost too much. I think this is the weakest point of XPLAY, because my friend has XPLAY too and while he dial a number and start calling, phone screen turns black and no hardware keys can wake up the screen..
Then I discovered only power button works here after checking ''Power button ends call'' in Accessibility settings. But it is still annoying.
But my problem is not solved, I have to phone with headphones connected or with rear speakers as audio output :/

hi please help
i have this problem No sound during a phone call please help

News?
Any news about this issue? There is load of threads about an ear speaker, I can still hear only GSM signal beep in it

[Q] vzw gnex - crackle and popping sound during incoming call.

First off, forgive me if this was already answered, I tried searching for about 15 minutes before I decided to post this.
As the title states, I'm having an issue with my gnex where I get this high pitched and crackling sound when receiving SOME incoming calls. I can't hear the person, and whenever they speak, the noises get louder so I can't hear them at all.
I think it's software, rather than hardware, since it doesn't happen on every single incoming call. From what I can tell, actually, it's totally random. But if I call the person back it is fine. They could even call me right back and it's fine.
My friend who also got a gnex from a different vzw store has the same issue. His also appears to be random.
Do you guys think it's just network, random phone problems, software issues, or all three?
Info: Verizon Wireless CDMA Galaxy Nexus running fully stock 4.0.2

For the record, I too am experiencing this issue. I also have the issue via 3.5mm jack and during other audio playback. At first I thought it was just my low-quality aux cable I was using in my car, but then I experienced it on a normal call. I was thinking software for this reason too as it happens via the jack as well as speaker... (Also happened watching Netflix, so that covers all audio output but bluetooth.)

Are people on custom roms experiencing this? I wasn't going to root this phone as I didn't see too much of a need, but I will if it will get rid of this issue.

if by crackling you mean it almost sounds like a fax sound, squealing, similar to this description, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453769 , then yes I had this when I ran stock but now that im running francos, AOKP, and the 4.0.3 radios(which arent included in most 4.0.3 roms), i have not had the problem.
My GF had a problem where her mic was bad, about 50% of the time i got a call from her she would sound muffled, almost as if underewater. She exchanged it at VZW and haven't had any problems since.

[Q] The Ear-speaker doesn't Work During a Call

Hi!.
I have a big problem with my Xperia Play!, in the past days i've been experimenting a problem with the internal speaker, it doesn't work during a outgoing and incoming call, only if i use the Loud Speaker i can hear the other person. i already tried to Reset the phone, change the room and the problem persist. anyone have the same problem? or do you know how to fix this?.
I have Android 2.3.4 for Xperia Play R800a.
Thanks for your time.

ditto
same issue with R800x android 2.3.2
my warranty is up too so i'm stuck with it

[Q] Noise Cancellation Not Working! Hotspot Related?

In the last few days I've noticed, or the people I call rather, have noticed that the noise cancellation doesn't seem to be working on my HOX. I've never faced this problem before, and I think it's worse that not having it at all. Basically the noise cancelling mic is picking up the background noise, but not blocking it! So it's twice as loud at the other end, one feed from the NC mic, and one from the normal mic - if that makes Sense (pun unintended).
I can't figure out what may have caused this. I've been cycling through the same custom ROMs - CM10, ICJ, Football, Renovate - none of which update the radio afaik. Never had the issue before with any of them. My radio version number is the same as as it's always been (see signature).
Any ideas? Has anyone had this prolem before? The only thing I did differently in the last couple of days is use the WiFi hotspot as I'm not home. Could this be messing up the radio?
Solution-wise, I am thinking of first trying to reinstall the ROM after full wipe, and then chek if NC is working fine BEFORE I use the hotspot again.
If not, I think I may have to restore my Nandroid, which will hopefully reinstall the radio, and then try again.
Thanks to anyone who can help!

Sorry to bump an old thread but has anyone found a solution for this problem? I'm running cm11 nightlies and since the last few days I've been experiencing this exact same issue. I have to literally put my finger on the noise cancelling mic for the person on the other side to hear anything that I'm saying! I've searched all over the internet but haven't found any solution yet.

[Q] Xperia S earpiece not working during calls, sound comes from back of phone

Hi all,
I'm having a problem with my Xperia S that started manifesting itself a few days ago. Basically when I receive a call the sound doesn't come out of the earpiece but instead comes from the back of the phone, as if the loudspeaker was being used, but very quietly.
I don't believe this is a headphone issue as I've never used headphones on my Xperia S.
The earpiece works under normal phone conditions, e.g. Turning volume up on the home screen producer a bleep as normal.
Turning on loudspeaker during a conversation will basically make the sound already coming out the back of the phone go loud as is expected when activating the loudspeaker option.
Has anyone else ever experienced this or know of a fix?
I have already tried the 'plug headphones in and out repeatedly' fix which hasn't worked.
I don't think detecting the headphones being plugged in is the issue.
Any advice welcome!

Does anyone think this could be a software issue? Someone in the Sony Forums has recommended doing a repair on my phone, which just means flashing a firmware file to the phone. I can do that, but it doesn't seem like that would be the issue, would it?
