crackling sound during bluetooth playback - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I looked but did not find latest information as to whether this issue has been resolved or not. Can someone steer me to the information please.

Some devices do this when they conect automaticly..to resolve the promblem shut bt off on your phone and reconect

I'm having this problem (crackle/pops) to my car stereo. My Nexus 7 doesn't have the problem. Restarting/reconnecting doesn't work. Are there other things to look for like conflicting apps? I'm rooted but still on stock ROM. Is there a ROM that solves BT crackle?

i had this problem along with a few other members. i had to exchange the phone as it was a defect in the hardware. the people i know who had this issue got their phones exchanged as well.

[Q] WiFi Bug... maybe ICS?

Hello all! I was just wondering if anyone is having a very particular issue with their WiFi on the GNex... more specifically with any phone running ICS. I seem to be unable to connect to any WiFi network that has non-standard characters in it- punctuation marks or letters with accents. My old phone (Samsung Captivate) connected just fine to my home network, which has an é and a ! in the name. Before I got my GNex, I was running an ICS rom on my Captivate, and realized I couldn't connect to my home network anymore. I figured it was a glitch with the rom as others were reporting WiFi issues.
Then, I went to work and connected to the WiFi just fine, then to a relative's house, then to a few other friends- they all connected just fine. I'm having the same issue with my GNex. Connects fine to most networks, just not the ones that have strange characters. I can input my WiFi password, but it just sits there at "saved" and the signal drops from "excellent" to "poor." Given that this same bug happened with my Captivate, I am assuming this is a software bug.
Just looking for others with this problem (and maybe a fix)!
Could be if the drivers for other non official ICS phones. But with the gnrx its a known issue.

Hmm. So is it hardware or software? Any hope of it being repaired, or do I have to change the WiFi name of my home network?
nothing with ur router bro. This is either a hw or sw issue. And I'm desperately praying for it to be software
P.s on my 3rd gnex and has the same issue as the other two

What a strange bug. I wonder how something like that even happens. Has anyone reported this bug to Google/Verizon? Does the GSM version have the same bug?

[Q] Music Pausing... Is it my phone?

Hi all, troubleshooting time again.
My delightful Galaxy Note II is randomly pausing music playback. I've read most/all of the threads about this on various devices but have run out of troubleshooting ideas. I thought I'd ask the community before I think about returning the handset for repair.
Basics first:
*Galaxy Note II 7100 UK BTU running latest official firmware (4.1.1)
*NOT rooted, modded or otherwise interfered with
Troubleshooting tried so far:
*Playback pauses using stock player regardless of whether I'm streaming or playing local files. I've also tried playing files from local and external storage so I don't think it's an SD Card problem.
*Playback pauses regardless of whether the handset is connected to headset, bluetooth or just sat on the side so I don't think it's an accessory problem
*Playback doesn't stop at any specific point or interval so I don't think it's a problem with the files.
*I recently hard-reset the device and the problem persists. I have a minimal amount of software installed and certainly nothing I can think of that would interfere with playback. The only sound app installed other than Google music and Samsung music is Deezer - oddly enough though I don't get pausing with Deezer and I'm currently testing Samsung music player...
Anyway. That's all I can think of for now. Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks all..

The latest official firmware for your phone is now 4.1.2. Try upgrading and see if the problem persists.

The BTU update came really late compared to other countries. I ended up manually updating mine.

Data and WiFi Constantly Dropping

Both my data and WiFi have been acting very strange the past week. Both services will show me as connected but I will only get the upload arrow showing on each indicator and then sometimes the icons just go gray. It has been happening very often and I have changed both my ROM and kernel on clean installs and I still have the same issue. Any help would be appreciated.
Bump. Still have the problem.
Flashing back to stock should work
Posting your basics usually gets you better answers

I started a thread here on a topic where my wifi and signal bars turn gray and the phone doesn't have data connectivity any more. sometimes this happens a dozen or more times a day and sometimes once or twice.
one response in that thread indicated that 4.2.2 made a positive impact on the problem.
I've been searching for a definite fix for this data/WiFi issue to no avail. I'm not entirely sure of when this issue began to occur but my phone (Toroplus) constantly loses WiFi signal. By losing signal I mean WiFi will turn off and on all by itself. And yes, WiFi sleep policy is set to stay on always. This issue alone made me go back to stock only to find the WiFi issue is present there too. I've also ruled out my router as the culprit. Im suspecting this is a Google issue. By the way, I talked to a sprint store employee who owned a galaxy nexus and after a few minutes of playing with his phone, which was completely stock and never rooted, I noticed his WiFi connection would turn off and on all by itself too. Any insight from anyone with knowledge to this would be appreciated.
Wi-Fi optimization off. If that does not fix it, I dunno.

Thanks for the suggestion but that doesn't fix it. Are you not having this issue? What's your setup? What ROM do you use? I've basically used all of them and it never goes away. I'm thinking of going to the HTC One when it's released just in case it's a Samsung issue.
I have also experienced this problem, especially at work where the network uses some WPA Enterprise variant. I've digged through logcats and can't find the problem either. A few Google Code forum posts talk about a possible bug introduced by network adapter manufacturers, or wpa_supplicant configuration issues. Haven't found a workaround yet, so I had to go back to 4.1.2, which seems to be stable.

The more I read on this subject the more I come to realize this is not specific to a certain device. The only common denominator that jumps out at me is jellybean. Seems like the issue is with Google, not hardware. Sucks that such a basic feature is not reliable out of the box. At least now I can understand why my buddy calls Android "buggy". Hopefully this is fixed sometime in the near future.

Need more info....download samsung phone info and post a screenshot of the firmware tab. If your bootlader and baseband dont match, theres your problem. If they do, try reflashing stock (twice) then doing a tactory reset from the stock recovery right after. If after that the issue is still present....probably something else.....mabey hardware related. Good luckl
Do you use bluetooth? I had a very similar problem and figured out that the only time I had call audio was when I was using a bluetooth headset or the bluetooth in my car. I don't know what sets it off but I've done some searching on this problem and it appears to be common among GSM GS4 owners, and even doing stuff like a complete reset doesn't fix it.
The one fix that I did find, that helped some people, was to go into Google Now and disable "Okay Google" detection from any screen. Several people found that that worked. But I didn't have that feature enabled anyway so it didn't apply.
I don't know if the same problem occurs with CDMA GS4s; my wife has a Sprint GS4 and doesn't have the problem but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I think it was just AT&T and T-Mobile GS4 owners who reported this.

I don't have Bluetooth, I've tried it with a wired headset and even that didn't work, but what's so puzzling about this is that my calling works fine with Facebook messenger calling feature, hangouts and things like that

Edit:
Nevermind. It worked twice then I tried calling a different phone and it broke again. I will keep searching and update.
Original:
I have had this issue intermittently for the past year. It was fixed for about 6 months then two weeks ago started occurring again. Today I flashed a new Rom (PacMan) and the M919UVUFOK3_M919TMBFOK3_TMB firmware. That did not fix it. I was connecting to a 5Ghz WiFi so on a whim I forgot that network and made a call without WiFi enabled. Call worked!
So I connected to my 2.4Ghz WiFi and it is working again. I would try turning off WiFi and see if your calls go through if so it could be 5Ghz or the router...maybe a forget network / reconnect to network will fix it consistently.
Hope this helps you and if anything new comes up I will let you know.
So an update. I finally just gave up on it. My wife had an old phone I remembered (from 2 - 3 years ago) that was ran over and the digitizer broke. I just took her guts and put it in my phone and now it magically works. Hopefully it stays that way.
Should have done this years ago as my phone would no longer charge with the USB Cable nor was my SD Card accessible. Now it is all functioning right again.

So after flashing stock NB4 twice.....and factory resetting after from stock recovery, your still not getting call audio?.....doesnt make sense....try again and make sure the bootloader and baseband match.....and dont reboot into download from the OS.
For anyone having issues with no call audio through cell service but for some reason it works through data calls through whats app or facebook messenger, etc ,i have been having the same problem for awhile now. I believe i have traced it to be a hardware issue with the middle frame, when looking at the phone with the battery cover open on the top right over by where there are two markings R1 and L1. There is a module there labeled J-AT TMGA 7-3. When i was having issues i noticed that if i put slight pressure on that module my audio would fade back in on the call but if i put too much pressure it goes away again. If it is a hardware connectivity issue it would explain why slunked was able to get his phone working again by changing the guts in the unit. Im currently waiting for a middle frame and a blue cable for the antenna to confirm if this is indeed the issue.

Check this out. It's still new so it has bugs but if my mic is not a deal breaker to you. Might as well give it a try
its the baseband version. turns out lineage expect a newer version than our old phones have.
i got a note 3 with the same issue, gladly found a modem update which did the trick
good luck hunting drivers
oh btw dont wonder if it tells you charging slow. turns out everything else then 800mha will be reported as slow charging even if you charge with 1200. check with ampere
thanks a lot dude.
my rom was fixed for radio signal.
but there is a minor bug. the mic not work when record . so if i want live on instagram, making calls on social media. there is no sound can hear my partner.
BUT, for telephone with celluler work perfectly.
