So get this, I was on the phone, using my BT headset. Suddenly the connection is dropped from the headset and the call is now being routed through the phone. After 2 minutes suddenly the call goes back BY ITSELF mind you, on the headset. 2 minutes after that back in the phone, then back to the headset then back to the phone and so on... Since it was an international call I didn't have time to get pissed, but I kept the phone in my hand and the headset on my ear and I would switch as the voice was being routed.
I've read all of the BT related issues out there as well as the possible solutions... nothing I've tried works for me.
I love the BA but this BT thing is ****ing frustrating!
Any light you guys can shed into it would be greatly appreciated.
Put WM6 on not too long ago, and its been fine. Anyhow just like 2 weeks ago it sometimes makes this super annoying beeping sound. And its not a beep for a txt msg (which I would also LOVE to remove the 3 beep crap, maybe make it just one beep, if anyone knows how) but more importantly this new random beeping is driving me nuts. It seems to happen more when Im on longer calls but I may not be 100% on that.
Anyone else ever experience? Ive restarting my phone a few times hoping it would solve it but no go. I could do hard reset maybe? Would rather not but..
Oh and to note versions
ROM 3.57.502.1

Thanks
Any beep I have during a phone call is because another call is coming in at the same time. This sounds like what's happening to you... "call waiting"

Sounds like a notification "beep during a phone call every 1 minute".
its def not call waiting or battery dying or txt msg or email or anything similar. Ill check the 1min beep but I dont think it happens every minute not to mention that was never turned on. Hell I dont even remember where to turn it on but ill look thru the settings.
Any other ideas? I really dont believe its either of those =(
Hello,
The only times I've heard such loud beeping is when I'm calling (or being called by) a friend who is on the Sprint network.
Every now and then this loud beep comes up... Very loud, unlike any beep/bong/screech the phone produces... The funny thing is that he doesn't hear it... :/
I assume is some kind of cell signaling that is not being filtered by Sprint...
Maybe it's a roaming alert or something like that.
As far as changing your alert for messages/voice mails, you can do that through the "sounds and notifications" icon under settings.
I sometimes get a beep to remind me that I have a message that I haven't yet opened. At least that's what I think it is.

This is what's been happening to my wife. Everybody that talks with her on the phone, will hear this loud beep. And it's really loud. If you had your stereo headset that came with the 8525 it almost hurts. She doesn't hear anything. At first I thought it was my WM6 ROM or something but it happened to my mother-in-law while on the phone with my wife, and it's happened to me when I call my wife from the company line.
She and I are both on AT&T. Now that I see this thread, I might give AT&T a call.
Yes so heres what ive concluded. I was on a 30min phone call with the woman and at approx 3minutes it made the beep. Not once again after. When I was odne with the call, no notifications (no txt, no email, no missed call, no low battery).
I will note, though, when I got an incoming call while on the phone before I thought the sound was different (may be wrong) but recently I received one while on the other line and the sound it made is the same as the one im hearing, however when i hear it, there are no calls coming in. My phone is stupid maybe and thinks someone is calling =(
May have to hard reset and hard that fixes but dont want to go that route just yet.
You sure you aren't moving the scrollwheel? I a lefthanded person sometimes find myself moving the scrollwheel during a phonecall, this also gives a beep.
def not moving it. In fact, I have also disabled those sounds from scrolling in the registry some time ago
I am not hearing a beep on mine but people that I am talking to say they hear a loud beep sometimes only once or twice during a 30 minute call. We are both on AT&T however. They also say they only hear this beep while talking to me. I've changed roms and the beep still occurs I am told.
Did you ever find any answers?
Its the spooks monitoring your calls, come on own up, what you done??
I've had a couple of odd beeps on calls too. AT&T as well. Running Schaps 4.2.
Hi,
I've been using a DESIRE HD for a long time , suddenly an issue has cropped up
1) My phone automatically uses the speaker when i receive or make a call !
Any Idea why is this happening?
i had the same issue for the last few weeks. i couldn't find a fix so ive just got into a habit of hitting speaker as soon as i make or recieve a call (to turn it OFF speakerphone) But...
the issue has now developed! one i make/recieve a call, and turn off speaker, the speaker continues to flick on and off throughout my call, mainly as it moves, depends on the tilt of the phone during the call. its like an overly sensitive exaggeration of the "flip for speaker" feature, as it happens when its vertical. thing is, ive turned this feature on and off many times to try and resolve it, but it still happens!
has anyone got any ideas that might help???
thanx
Hi, guys...
I started learning about rooting android phones from here.....amazing forum.
Anyway!
The problem I'm having is terrible audio distorsion(think of 8bit sound from the NES days) when making calls. Once every 6-7 calls are fine, but the rest of them are terrible. I have to note that this applies to sound coming out of either the earpiece OR through earphones.
When using Viber, things are fine. The same goes for Skype.
I read somewhere on this forum that the source of the problem is the satellite signal being too loud...lowering the device's volume does not solve the issue, of course.
Any tips on how one might solve this?
Thank you in advance!
U mean it happens one every 6 or 7 calls? Or vice versa?
Cos I have this distortion like at least one or twice every 6 to 7 calls,it only happens on cellular calls, nothing removes it but hanging up and re dialing
My friend's note 2 (exact same as mine) has this same problem, it's frustrating after a while.
If anyone knows anything more on this let us know please.
Thx
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
The thing stopped happening for now. Yay!
But it worked once every 6-7 calls. I had terrible distortion the rest of the time.
I'm still curious to have a solution for this...
It started happening again, on and off...and I notice it happening only when calling some people...
Hi guys, I did a search in this Arc forum for In ear Speaker problems and couldn't find anything, so I chose to start a new thread. Just know I DID try to find info for this phone but I only found a few other threads about different phones.
My in-ear speaker does not work in calls. It is extremely quiet, as if the volume is turned all the way down. Thing is, I try turning up the in-call volume during a call and it does nothing. But the weird thing is, I went into the service menu to test the hardware (using the *#*#7378423#*#* trick) and tested the in-ear speaker and it works fine! Loud and clear! But then immediately following that I'll try a call and still will hear practically nothing. Putting the call on speakerphone allows me to hear the other party, as well as putting in a headset, so I am stumped. Tried pulling the battery and have rebooted the phone many times and the problem is still persisting.
AND, on top of ALL of that, the damn thing was working just fine the other day. I switched to this phone last week and have been making calls successfully being able to hear the other party just fine. But suddenly today it's deciding to not work in a call. This is really weird.
Has anyone else had this problem? What else can I try to fix it? Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
EDIT: Blah a hard reset fixed it. Feel free to delete this post mods!
