i'm sorry but anyone noticed the issue of the new UVLH1 update or i'm the only one? when i make a call i have no sound on the phone neither to know that i'm connected with the other side nor to hear him?? even if it's not all the time but it's annoying sometimes to make 3 or 4 call to have one!! anyone have the same issue or a solution please?? i'm on UVLH1 rooted
Might be a bad install. Try wipe cache and fix permissions
That will do. If not reinstall and so the wipe again

I had this problem when using my Plantronics Voyager Pro. To fix it I wiped data from all system apps involving blue tooth.

still nothing
i tried almost every thing, i tried to wipe cash, to do a factory reset, to reinstall the rom, still the same problem
This problem happened again for me as well, but only on cdma. Try switching your phone to gsm only and see if it functions. That is what seemed to fix mine. (I know, not really a fix. I am just curious if the problem is a bug in the new radio.)

im haveing the same prob as well. it takes 3-4 times b4 the call will work and the same on incoming as well..talked to tmo and well waiting on them to send me replacement its on back order. on a side note i had this prob on a rooted device running uvlh1
That post perfectly describes my device. Now, try going to Wireless Network settings and select Gsm only and see if it stops hanging on connect.

i prefer not to do that, i'll lose my fast connection, i prefer to downgrade to 4.0.3 rather than to do that, but only i'm worried if that will happen to me again when i do that
I just hoped you might try it to see if it was a viable workaround.

Try a different radio towle has a mirrors thread in the stickies somewhere in the tmo sgsii forums. I think most of them have the RIL removed but check to be sure.

I found LH1 to be a superior data radio, but with poor call performance.
These being *phones*, I flashed back to the LE1 radio.

Same problem. I get sms from places where there was no reception before but call quality sucks. some of my friends couldn't hear me aside from the no sound calls.
Might revert back to LE. Using TDJ's cm10 rom.

1+ for sure. Went back to the le1 radio. Had nothing but issue with the other radio. Data was great on the new one though. Calls and speaker phone calls sucked

I've noticed the same problem, but I can deal with it, as I text/surf more than I call. It usually fixes itself on the second attempt of a phone call for me, though. Don't wanna downgrade radio since I love my ROM.

And how do you just flash the LE1 only? is this considered Rooting?

You are not alone my friend...I am having the same exact problem with 2 of my Galaxy S2's on TM....

You need a custom recovery and you need to know how to use it (the recovery you have).
Again, towle has a sticky with mirrors MANY helpful downloads. a flashable zip of uvle1 radio was in it the last time I checked.
If you don't know how to check if a flashable radio has a ril then flash the radio, THEN your ROM. Custom ROMs tend to have custom rils and it is best not to overwrite them.
----
As an end note, I'm using lh1 and have been on every ROM I've used (tried too many to remember), not everyone has issues; it may depend on the area you are in.

I agree!!!!
I just Re-flashed both my phones to GINGERBREAD 2.3.6 UVLDE That I got from Here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=8&view=4798 using the ODIN software and a great walk though found Here: http://androidforums.com/samsung-galaxy-s2-t-mobile/628449-how-odin-any-stock-rom.html
So far, we haven't had any calling issues as of yet....Plus, the phone is super fast again!! I noticed that with ICS on the phone, and Factory Reset with nothing on it, My RAM was tipping between 500-600 MB of use!! and now that we are back to Gingerbread, it's at 295-340MB....Which is a HUGE difference!!!!!
Let's hope, that maybe it might be defective SIM cards or chips like you said, but I am also tired of wiping these phones and starting all over again!!! I think Im gonna stay with GB for now......It's woking as intended anyway...
I'm having this issue where when i make or receive a call at times there is no sound and either party cannot hear. This happened to me on GB too. After monitoring it for a long time, i figured that it only happens when inside home where i get poor reception and not outside or places with good reception.
When i'm at home i usually get 1-2 bars of signal. Often, when i get a call and i don't get any sound, i look at the signal strength and it is at 4 bars but as the call disconnects it drops back to 2 and then if i make or receive the call then it goes fine.
I searched around the net i see this issue is with S3 users too, when they have poor reception they do not get any sound on call. I'm thinking that it has to do something with the radio hardware or holding reception in low reception areas.
Everyone that calls me complains of an echo on thier end. If I go to speakerphone the issue is gone. Anyone else?
28 views and not one comment? Lol..guess it's just my phone then. Sucks because no insurance. What would anyone recommend if I'm forced to sell my Note?

Dude change your in call sound settings theres like 5 different to choose from. "Optimized for left ear", "optimized for right ear", "clear souns" n some other ones I cant remember. Also theres the noise reduction. Tweak w all of them worth a try

Thanks..definitely have been. Nothing seems to help. Doing some google searching seems like this was a pretty common error with the Note and the GS2..but it's hit or miss. There is a fix that requires taking the phone apart that I'm not willing to do. It has something to do with the noise cancellation. I've been turning it off every call now and it seems to help, but not fix the problem. Only sure fix is to use speakerphone or hands free mic. I'm just annoyed. I shouldn't have to work around anything on a 2 month old flagship phone.

So my note 2 mic is not working . Only speakerphone and bluetooth work. My question is is the mic easy to replace? Is it part of the motherboard or seperate? If its seperate anyone have a broken note 2 willing to sell? Is it weird that speakerphone works and not regular method of talking on a phone? Any help would be great. And by the way no voice apps work either ie google svoice etc. Thanks

What's funny is that if the speaker phone is working. Then in theory the Mic should b good. Because it uses the same one! I agree with the above poster, if your running a custom Rom I would go back to stock to see if that fixes your problem. Another thing I would look at is if the Mic, is clogged up with lint/dust. It happen to my brother's daughter phone. Called me saying her phone don't work, can't here her talking!! Cuz I'm the tech guy of the family, told her to try and clean out her Mic. After that she called her dad now he can here her fine.
Just my 2¢

I forgot to mention I bought this phone used and have no paperwork . So I cant do warranty I dont think.
I bought it from cl and it worked fine for a few days . Before you say I got ripped off I only paid 100 cash + a galaxy s1. So even with the 25 $ mic still came out clean . Phoneis mint except non working mic .

I work for a cell phone retailer as a repair technician and warranty repair is free lol. I can see any manufacturer charging for shipping though, unless you complain enough. The warranty follows the device not the phone number
Well after over a month I finally got my note 2 back. .. They sent it back to me broken so I sent it back and finally got it yesterday. They replaced the pba which is the mother board ... It works great and glad to be back

Hello
5 month Note 2 user that had almost no complaints till early april where my phone started lagging, restarting every few hours(it did restart once every 2-3 days since they day i bought it) and touch screen not being responsive. Result was the problem becoming worse and me having to search for it and finding out about SDS. I checked my phone through EMMC and it says my chip is insane... as soon as I saw that I tried backing everything up but as it turned out, it was too late..I've lost all my game data (I've managed to copy a few games but its a few stages back..for example my subway surfers save is like 2-3 months back...), i've lost ALL of my contacts and my smscontact backup says it has no contacts on the backupfile...
regardless, I sent it to the local Samsung retail and they kept it for a week, got it back today, same thing happening...They told me they found humidity + errors on my phone and they had to clear/wipe it out completely. Its been like 3-4 hours since i got it and it already got stuck at a black home screen error + unable to swap applications and once on a non-responsive touch screen. I contacted the Samsung retailer and he told me that it could be an error from my SD card. I highly doubt that, am using a san disk 32gb ultra speed and I only have movies on it actually so...
Now my 'questions'...What can I do? Rooting it can fix it? Or will it void my warranty completely? If I root and it breaks again can I unroot and send it to have it fixed? And if they cant fix it, do they replace my phone with another one? Like a new note 2 or a new samsung phone?
Thanks
Ps: already posted this on sprint forums by mistake and it was suggested to me to try removing my sd card..no difference

well it is what people say "symptoms of the sudden death" so probably and all says that( 5 months, strange behaviour. .) if they dont fix you can talk to them that probably it is SDS if not you'll have to wait until the phone dies or send lots of times (like a guy who said that here in xda) and they probably replace the motherboard. theres nothing at the moment to do if it have been affected by the corrupted data but you can update to the latest firmware which is suposed to have the fix
hope I answered your question

well the problem is that if the phone send some corrupted data to the chip when you were at 4.1.1 there's nothing to do.
The repair centre "doesn't know about it" because if they do know they'll have to asume that problem and they will lose money. The correct procediment is to change de motherboard however sometimes they just put an old one with the insane chip again. If you really want this phone and I assume that you do like it, when they replace and send it back update to 4.1.2 ASAP therefore they usually update before sending back.

They are already losing money when they fix my phone cause of full warranty.. i loved the phone but am disappointed right now and with the possibility of changing phones i dont mind..cause all in all it has its downsides..ie too big to carry, takes a looong time to charge and regardless ive already lost all my data so its already like i got a new phone..
How can i know if they changed my motherboard?

You should have a new imei if they changed mb i think.
I bought note because of the screen,dont mind using it with both hands thats the price you have to pay if you want that commodity of big display.
And its charging like every phone,maybe a little longer but instead you have great battery life.

Nobody loses money but Samsung. Your local samsung service center is not Samsung company. They are third companies that have an agreement with Samsung to fix samsung phones officially in your country.
They lose money only if they replace a motherboard that is already working or not covered under warranty (user faults).
Once I talked(personally) to one of Samsung services in my country, they said mostly they are not able to understand these new generation smartphones. Most of the time all they do is just replacing motherboards, they said
My suggestion to you, print several sudden death syndrome reported web pages and show them or email them if you can. Samsung is replacing bricked motherboards with no question asked (even rooted ones).

Hello all. I have a problem with the headphones. When listening music or when I'm on a call or anything there is a crackling/static like noise and the sound that comes from the headphones is all distorted. It's goes away after reboot but after a while it comes back.
I have tried everything. I have tried all of the roms, aosp and tw, installed all kind of audio mods and apps, changed headphones (i don't have the original Samsung headphones but all of the headphones that i have are working ok on s2 and s3 that i have home), tried changing the processor clock and changing the governor and nothin helped.
With another words i tried everything that i find out about the problem on Internet and xda and im afraid there is no more solutions.
So please if anyone has had a similar problem, please respond.
Thanks.

After experimenting with several roms, i noticed that it happens always when I'm using some kind of audio mod, viper or boefla etc. Also it happens on all roms including tw roms. The annoying sound is gone only on stock tw rom with stock kernel.
Also it is gone on Ivan's unofficial cm 12.
Hope it helps someone.
