It's problem with the Software. Try flashing latest Darkside Venom ROM. My dad said he hears no echo anymore.

Remember they are different phone. They code the libs and kernels different. So those are the issue that T-Mobile didn't fix while creating ICS for this phone. And I PM'd you the rooting instructions.

Ok before you say "BLA BLA BLA search" I did.. both with google and the built in thing.
All the results either didn't work for me that I found or was just someone saying "BA BLA BLA search"
I tried asking in the dev section but I didn't get any responses and I don't know if there is a IRC.... but anyways
I am having an echo when my phone is on echo on both of my galaxy S IIIs.
ie: If my brother is calling me on his phone (Not a galaxy s III) he hears himself when my phone is on speaker.
And if I call my dad who has a galaxy S III running CM10 as well I hear myself.
It is really really annoying
So no one is willing to help?
This issue is really annoying
I have a bit of an echo as well but like you, have seen no response to a fix yet.

There is no fix. The devs have to figure out how to fix it.

Thank you two for responding. I rather know "it is not fixed and we are having the issue as well" then being the only one with the issue .
The devs do know about the issue right? It is almost as bad as the flickering.
On T-Mobile cm10 as well. One thing I've done to fix it is just lowering the volume. Something with mic and noise cancellation isnt working properly.

I had this echo every time I updated to a custom ROM. I finally unrooted, and was finally able to update my phone to the latest firmware and OTA update. Once I did that I rooted again and flashed CM10...no more echo. I'm convinced it was updating phone - are you up to date with your OTA?

I am on the i747UCLG1 baseband. Is that not the latest? It shouldn't affect that anyways.
I am not on the latest OTA. I'll look into trying that some time this week.

Hi so this is my first thread. So I recently routed my gs3 with no problem, and I have CWM recovery v6. I tried to use the euroskank cm10 mod from the ROM manager app. Everything ran okay, but the one problem I'm having is the android keyboard stops working. I couldnt set anything up,so I had to restore to the stock ROM. Can anyone help me fix this? Thank you. Also, just to kill to birds with one stone, what is the best modem for the sprint gs3? Thanks a bunch!
Might just be a problem with the rom, did you read the bugs? Or did you clear all data before flashing?

That just sounds like a bug in the rom
Suppose so, a friend of mine can use the ROM with his GS3, but he has ATT. Maybe that's why his works

Wait, is the ROM in question even meant for the Sprint GS3? If not that could be a huge problem. Never ever flash a ROM from another carrier.
The ROM manager app gives me a selection of phones to flash CWM recovery with, and I chose the sprint GS3.

If your friend is running it on ATT, I would a assume that you're running 2 different ports of the same ROM. In that case each can have their own bugs and quarks.
And mine apparently won't let me use a keyboard, which makes it pointless anyway. So I should just find another rom specific to the sprint GS3. Know of any that I should look into?

I have an auntie that has a T-Mo Galaxy S2 and when trying to upgrade it says that there is no new upgrade even tho that it is on froyo. Trying to connect it to kies, the program doesn't recognize it. She took it to the T-Mo store and they said that it was a bug in some of the S2's and were unable to do anything. My question now, is it safe to install cwm and flash a jelly bean rom even tho that this bug is present??? Thanks in advance
Sorry for the double post but I'm not sure if it's worth noting, but the front camera is on the right side of the phone as opposed to the left (looking at pictures from the web). Not sure if this is substantial or anything just a quick note.

You have to upgrade through kies software on your PC if you're on stock Gingerbread.

The phone is not on gingerbread it is on FROYO. When trying to connect to kies it would not recognize the phone after trying multiple troubleshooting techniques.

Can you post some information about the phone from the settings? Like build number, phone model, etc.? Because the Galaxy S2 never had froyo, so I'm very curious to see what your settings are like.

I would but I am not in possession of the phone right now. But as I said before even t-mobile workers were unable to upgrade. This is why I am looking into if its safe to flash a custom room or even stock jellybean.

Try and take some screenshots or something. Because even the first Galaxy S2 (the I9100) was released with Gingerbread, not Froyo, so this is stumping me right now.

Does it look like that? That's the Galaxy S 4G. Its like a slight revision to the OG Galaxy S. It doesn't have official CM Builds iirc though.
If it doesn't look like that, then she doesn't have a Galaxy S device, just some random Samsung phone

Hey guys. I have an altell galaxy s2 and i have absolutely no idea why this thing is still running 2.3.6. As far as i can tell, its most similar to the epic touch 4G. Im just wondering if any of you guys know how to go about rooting this phone and what Roms need to be flashed to it. Any help is greatly appreciated. Google searches have really done nothing but confused me. Most of them lead to post where people complain about the phone not being updated.

Well thanks for pointing that out. Though I never herd of a altell variant of the galaxy s II
Edit: Did some research for that model number and its not a known model number for major carriers of the GSII, though it had in parentheses "(U.S Cellular)"
Laughing at you while eating jellybeans
....
Yes. It's the USC variant. I'm assuming Alltel is using the same one.
AFAIK that variant isn't quite the same as our E4GT. I know there was some ROMs by a former XDA member who's name shall not be named or you get an instant permaban from XDA... not really but it adds a cool drama effect right?
Check out the archived development over at Android Central.

The t989 devs have put out a literal tonne of jb roms already.
And if you are talking about xda devs helping get official jb out....well.....I will just say not gonna happen. Xda devs are not affiliated with google, samsung or the carriers in any way.
So...I could care less when official jb comes out....cause I've been running it already for months!

I just installed embryo 6.8 today. So far so good! Was using Whitehawkz Aokp 4.2.2 for about a month...its very good! I just wanted to try a TW rom again, since last time I did there were alot more issues on the t989. Seems most of its been ironed out now....even have signal bars now.
Anyway, those are the 2 I've used recently. There are a bunch of great current roms tho! Just read thru the different rom threads to see what folks are saying about them.
Remember....for what I do with my phone I have very few if any issues....but for what you do with your phone...that could be different. Just nandroid a safe good backup....and flash anything that appeals to you. If you don't like, then restore your nandroid.
Have fun!

T-Mobile has announced software updates for the many of the devices I've used over the years and rarely have they ever followed through. There are plenty of JB ROMs that are worth looking at that will blow any T-Mo OTA out of the water.
And the T989 doesn't have the hardware capacity to run what the S4 will be able to run.
