noise on VOIP calls - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello friends!
First of all I want to thank you people for your work on development , I have installed for the first time the CM10.0.0 Jelly Bean 4.1.2 on my galaxy S3 I747 AT&T wireless it works great, really fast , just a good thing to say!
But unfortunately I have one issue on this ROM maybe , its just me , but the issue is like this:
I have a few VOIP call APPs like VIBER SKYPE when somebody calls me or I call them it makes a horrible noises from my side that means the person that speaks with me can't hear not one of my words. It's not just in one app it's in SKYPE and VIBER that means that the issue is in the ROM(i think so) important to say that in regular calls everything is perfect.
I played with settings there is a option of "NOISE SUPPRESSION " it has not helped , I restarted the wireless a few times , uninstalled apps and installed again but no changes occurred. the issue is on same LAN calls ,WAN TO WAN, LTE to WAN (the comunication is ok)
I hope you can help me with this issue because I really like this ROM and I don't want to go back to ICS
again , thank you for you time and good job!

Problem with the mic (software related)

I'm having this problem, nobody is able to listen to me when they call me, but I can hear them loud and clear.
At first I thought it was a hardware related thing, but when I make skype calls, everything is alright and I'm able to record voice or music, so the hardware microphone is actually fine.
So I think is a software related think, but I'm unsure wheather is a ROM related thing or are some other programs I installed.
Regarding ROMs, I used Tai's v21 edition but I changed back to the old reliable Josh v15 ROM which I was using before with no problems, but now I have this problem too.
So I narrowed the problem down to installed software, and my best bets are skype itself and Audioroute.
I wonder if you are able to make any mobile test call here in London (I'm using 3uk network) so I won't spend all my mobile call minutes testing whether the phone is working or not again?
Thanks in advance
Have you tried the stock rom? Or are you loading a different dialer?
I haven't seen that issue.

[Q]T-mobile Wifi-Calling and echo problems?

Just got the Samsung Galaxy S3 for T-mobile and have been experiencing a few strange issues with general call quality. About 2 or 3 mins into a call via wifi-calling, sound from the other side will just cut out. The call is still connected and I am then forced to hang-up and redial. This has happened already on 3 separate occasions. Calls off wifi-calling did not experience this issue albeit I could hear an echo of myself =(. Redialing and asking the other party to call me did not resolve the echo issue. The other party did not hear the echo.
Anyone else experiencing these types of issues or know of any fixes? Since it's only my first day with the phone, I'm hoping these are only fluke occurrences...
Yeap has happened to me calling out of town and in town numbers. Sounds like a dead line, and then when u talk u get an echo. I was advised by the people on the other line that they could hear me. This has happened while on the network due to I don't use Wi-Fi calling.

Anyone else have any wificalling issues?
My issue is more on loosing connection to the server while the phone is in asleep. the wifi connection is not lost just the connection to the server is lost and then my battery gets lost on locating connection.any ideas on that ?
I normally use wifi calling, but today at work and at home (so two different connections and two different routers) I tried to answer an incoming call, but the caller could not here me. I pressed the end button, and the dialer froze for about a minute before saying the dialer stopped responding and requested me to close it. Tested several more times before wiping my phone and reloading my rom fresh. Did the same thing afterwords. Then I turned off wifi calling and the normal network calling worked fine. Maybe a tmo server issue?

word for word same issues im having, also 2 different routers.:crying:
Although I am not certain if this problem exited before rooting and flashing my phone, my WiFi Calling has not been working. I can place the call, but I cannot hear it ring or hear anything when calling. I can receive calls, but once I answer, I cannot hear anything. I am able to receive text messages normally.
I have resorted to switching to the cellular preferred only option. I hope there will be a remedy for this issue.
I'm on the FreeGS3 R3 rom with stock kernal.

What Rom are you using? Im trying to conclude that the issue might be with the [ROM][GSM]{7.8.2012} Team Sonic Presents FreeGS3 R3 (Special FiveOhFox Edition).....I have noticed a few people in this thread have the issue using that ROM

I am running Whitehawks STOCK TVALUEM999 ROM with none of these issues. I am only on wifi as thats all I have available and I do not have an issues. It's possible that the removal of all the T-Mobile Bloatware, or some Mods done could be causing this. I have great battery life on that ROM and everything works fine. I am excited about this ROM, but am waiting to see another release come out and see how that works. ALSO, get ROM Manager, update to the newest CWM and try a data/dalvick cache, factory reset and install from zip from internal SD. Let me know how that works out
I use Wi-Fi calling exclusively when I'm at home. I'm rooted but still using Touchwiz.
I haven't had any echo problems. I think the quality overall is pretty bad though. For lack of being able to think of anything better atm, I'll just say it sounds rough. It was something that really bothered me at 1st, but I guess I'm kind of getting used to it. There are times I've thought the call was lost bc the call becomes so silent (clear and empty), but after a moment, I can hear them again and the call continues.
My husband switched over to T-Mobile about two weeks before I got the S3 and switched over from Verizon. While using the Wi-Fi calling, I've lost a call or two so far. My husband, who has an HTC One S, has also lost a call or two and he thinks the quality of his calls are fairly poor also.
I'm wondering if it's not necessarily a S3 thing, but perhaps a T-Mobile thing???
That being said... There are times he has full Wi-Fi bars and I have barely anything, and when I check the signal my laptop is getting, that's full as well. When I check the Battery from Settings, I always only have a yellow bar that is frequently dotted with sections of red.
The Wi-Fi issue, whatever the hell it is, is really the only bummer about the phone for me.

I am not sure if what to tell you, but I am in Afghanistan with the Samsung GS3 rooted, and I do not have a single issue with call quality with some of the crapiest internet connections you can ask for.. No echo, no dropped calls. Your internet connection quality can make a difference, when you make phone calls, any downloads going on can hinder the quality, also the type of router u have makes a difference. A wireless N router with 300MBS per second would be ideal...
It doesnt matter if your are using Touchwiz, the rom you are using matters, no other threads are stating this issue. I suggest you try another rom like redruM cause he just released a new update today, or Whitehaws STOCK. It performs great and has CIQ removed, zipalign on boot, some T-Mobile bloat removed, no force closes on any apps and good battery.. It doesn't have the crazy scripts and 4 in 1 reboot, however, if u dont care about that and you want stable and root, its a good option
According to T-Mobile technical support, they have escalated the issue of wifi-calling and wifi connectivity issues to Samsung and supposedly there is a team working on this. Supposedly they will be doing an over the air update.
it doesn't seem like a lot of us is having this problem, could it be the phone itself? i was fine until a couple of days ago. now i am having the same problems as some in this thread; i can hear them but they can't hear me. sometimes it freezes when i answer the call. now i'm thinking if rooting (phone is rooted only) was a probable cause, and if i should do a nandroid restore or system reset??
No wi-fi calling

TMo - GS3
My phone is and has not ever been Rooted. I'm having the same issue that when wi-fi calling is active, if I receive a call, the caller cannot hear me, and then the app. hangs for a minute when I hit end or the caller hangs up. I tried it on a couple networks. I thought I was able to make wi-fi calls, but that seems to not work all the time, either.
I believe this is the first TMo ICS phone, right? I had a 4.0.3 custom (Passion) ROM on my Vibrant (GS1), but since there wasn't ICS TMo phone, there was no wi-fi calling app. on it.
I called T-Mo support and told them I found this thread with other users with the same problem, but they didn't say anything was in the works. Samsung support gave me their usual answer, of doing a factory reset, reinstalling and reconfiguring everything (yeah right).
I get the hang sometimes and I also get the problem of people not being able to hear me when I pick up. Annoying. I got rid of my amaze after the ICS update because it screwed up wifi calling(delay in voice 5-10sec). Piss poor. Wish it worked better because I don't get a cell signal in my house.
To get rid of the voice echo - disable the noise cancelation during a phone call in the in call menu. The noise cancelation uses two mics but unfortunately picks up the noise of the speaker as well, causing the echo effect.
when i first got my s3 i had the wifi calling on and i'd miss calls. people said that it didn't even ring just went right to voice mail. on the occasion that a call actually went through people couldn't hear me and for me they cut in and out. i gave up and stopped using it.
when i bought the phone i was told that when on wifi calling the minutes didn't count against my plan, but reading the manual i got the impression that they did. which is correct?

You have to have them add the free WiFi calling feature to your plan and then they don't count. Just tell them you want your minutes on wifi to be free. There is no extra charge after they add that code.

I'm having the same issue, wifi calling does not work. No one on the other end when I answer incoming calls. Can't connect out.
For me it works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't I just turn it off, I use 200 minutes so far this month and today is the last day so I'm good with 500 minutes plan

Did any of you with the wifi calling problem install Skype? My first phone had the problem of no one hearing me and freezing when hanging up. I ended up returning it to Tmobile for another phone.
Right before I returned the old phone I did some testing. I flashed it back to stock and it didn't fix the problem, but when I wiped the data and cache in download mode, it seemed to help with the wifi calling, not sure how consistent it worked, but at least for the first call I can hear them and vice versa.
So I'm thinking something I installed may have played a factor, and right now my suspicion is that it's skype. I haven't installed it on my new phone since I don't want to screw the wifi calling on there.

[Q] skype and viber calling issues

Yesterday, I flashed CM10.0.0 stable release via "ROM Manger Premium" app by ClockWorkMod from Play store after rooting my T-mobile Galaxy S3 along with app provided Gapps package. Everything works great and I was really liking this ROM and considered this as my primary ROM. However, the excitement was short lived when I called my girlfriend using skype and viber. I had very low volume issue on viber(according to my girlfriend) and weird sound(according to my girlfriend) issue on skype on my girlfriend's side of the call. Those problems went away when I hung up the call, reflashed my stock TouchWiz 4.0.4 on my phone and immediately called her back. I was wondering if any other people has or had the same problem and is there a fix on that issue? Thanks in advance.
sincerely,

Hi,
This is a member of the Viber R&D Team.
It sounds like the typical Custom ROM issue - some custom ROMs alter the microphone definitions of your phone, causing Viber not to recognize the phone's microphone properly. That is the reason that Viber cannot transmit your sound to the other side. We discussed this issue in detail with our users in this thread on XDA Forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=25865775#post25865775
Please note that in that thread, a workaround was suggested *by a user* that seemed to have solved the problem for Galaxy S+S2 users.
Let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Viber

[Q] Phone calls not working after CM 10 and 11

Tried updating to CM11 and everything worked great ... apart from phone calls.
Phone rings ... but person calling can't hear me and I can't hear them.
Outgoing calls ... their phone rings(my phone just says dialing but no ringing), they can't hear me ... I can't hear them.
The tried CM10, same problem.
restored back to by factory 4.1.2 version and it all works again.
I've seen one other person in this forum reporting the same issue but on the Optimus G (not the E980).
Is this a common issue? Is there a quick fix?

I had the same issue on CM11 , moved to CM10.2 which worked well.. Any fix ?
Moving to CM 10.2 I had the same problem.
One thing I thought of, which I'm not sure if it could be a cause is I am not using ATT as the provider anymore which this phone was only released in US as ATT. I'm now using T-Mobile with the E980 ... could that have anything to do with it?

Hi eleavings
Just to check - did you manage to resolve your issue with the dialer? i'm having a similar issue after i rooted my n9005 and flashed a custom rom. i'm a noobn so am not too sure where i went wrong. i'm still scouring the web for answers.
The odd thing is, when i use a bluetooth headset or the viber app, i can make the calls and the other party can hear me.i just can't make calls from the phone!
