Need solution to microphone cutting out during calls on 4.4 - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I installed CM 11 VILLUMINATI a wile ago and everything was great, until i made a call. i would speak to the other end for a few minutes and suddenly they would stop hearing me as if i touched the mute button. i made sure that was not the case...it wasn't. i made sure the volume was all the was up thinking maybe that had something to do with it but it was max. finally i shouted into the mic and that worked and i was able to finish my call. i thought it was a fluke but then i received a call and the same thing happened to me, i had to yell just so the mic wouldn't turn off. i went into settings for the phone app and turned off background noise reduction and voice privacy (whatever that is) but the problem continued. i found that switching to speakerphone will keep the mic on and heard that switching to and from speakerphone also works but that is kinda annoying. i flashed MoKee thinking that it was a problem with CM 11 , that is the ROM i'm running now. but i still have the problem. on the Mokee forums i read that if i flashed the Extreme Kernel it might help so i did, it didn't. reading further into the thread it seems the Kernel is more trouble then its worth. i thought maybe its a hardware issue so i downloaded a voice recorder app and had a mock phone call for about three minutes, not once did the microphone cut out. iv tried re flashing dirty and clean to no avail. i just don't know whats going on iv hunted in the forums and have found no answer. most seem to not have the problem on the same version as i or others. i would post in the ROM thread but this will make my fourth post and it seems there is a minimum number of post one must make to be able to do that so im posting this here. in hopes of a work around...a fix..or at least a link to a thread were some helpful info would be.

I'm experiencing a similar problem. Did you find any resolution?

AudioBooster equalizer resets

I love the AudioBooster..! it boosts or mutes the right frequencies...
The only thing is that everytime when an interuption occures (phone call, switching player etc. etc.) the AudioBooster resets the sound back to flat level.
The sliders are still on the same place and when i just tip a slider it works again.
Anyone same prob? is there a solution for it?
couldn't find anything bout this prob in the forum.. Don't know if its Rom related... I use INDIGO full

I noticed this as well...
It also happens when you use the buttons on the W100 - Wired Remote. Very annoying because to have the EQ enabled you cannot make use of the remote, which deafeats the purpose of the remote entirely.
I would be enternally grateful to anyone with enough talent to fix this.
Allright, ive got another audiobooster, (replaced it by INDIGO's internal one)this one (this one is enabled... ):

This one won't work. It is made for HTC LOVE. We have already tried to make it work on trinity but it can't. I think it is an hardware problem. In fact it is as if you wanted to make a 6 channels sound card driver or software work with a 2 channels sound card. It can't work cause the hardware isn't the same.
Ah tha explains alot.. lol thnx !

Mangled text on home screens?

Hello, I've got a weird error that I don't even know how to begin tracking down. Not sure if this is an ICS issue, an app issue, or a device (hardware) issue.
Several times now, I get a problem were, after a reboot, all the text on my home screen - names for apps and text within widgets is mangled somehow. Like pixels inverted, or boxed over, etc. (see screenshot)

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The first couple of times this happened, a single reboot made it go away. However with my latest occurrence, I've rebooted several times without a fix.
EDIT: It seems like my data connection may also require examination? Since on the 3rd or 4th reboot I was in my office with a solid WiFi connection (versus previous reboots I was in my car en-route), the problem has now gone away again.
My initial reboot this morning was as a quick-fix attempt at an absent data connection. Guess I'm off to research these "radios" everyone keeps on about...
EDIT 2: Ok, perhaps ignore the above. After a reboot made this go away, it has now come back spontaneously (i.e. just noticed it sitting in the cradle with the error again - no reboot this time.) CRUUUUD.
Are you using a custom Kernel? Some 'Overclock' the GPU to 512MHz, while Stock is 384MHz. Some devices can't handle the increase and cause screen artifacts. Post your Kernel details and I'm sure someone will point you in the direction of another Kernel if this is the case.
Not that I know of - should be all stock, since I haven't rooted or unlocked anything yet (just got the phone a couple of weeks ago).
Thanks for the help.
Stock launcher? Or using nova/apex etc?

Hi,
Another thread...:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646985
Nothing related to GPU overclock...just about this possibility...
Looking in different threads in Q&A/General.
If you are using the stock launcher...I think I saw a topic with this weird issue with the stock launcher...but I can not find it anymore
In any case clear data/cache of your current launcher,reboot and see...If you're on another launcher than stock,reinstall...
I speak only for the launcher issue.
Yep, stock launcher. Thanks for the other thread.
Seems to be at bay now. Will keep an eye on it.

Voxer on GS3 with Cyanogenmod...

Hey all, I have noticed a trend on both my GS2 and now my GS3, it would appear that certain apps would have low mic volume after installing clean builds of either CM9 or now CM10.
Does anyone know if a fix or has anyone else encountered this specific issue?
Again, my mic is just fine, I even went back to a TouchWIZ based ROM to confirm this, it would appear that in CM ROMs for some 3rd party apps, in this case Voxer, that the mic is turned down extremely low.
And now the program will only produce audio via the earpiece with the MIUI ROMs, the mic is also EXTREMELY low. Does anyone have advice?
i was just about to post this! what's going on?
I'm really surprised by all the ppl that flash a ROM without reading through a thread...CM has disabled one mic, hence the audio being low. All other AOSP ROMs are based on CM, which is why they have the problem. There is no fix that I've seen as of right now. Either run a CM based ROM and have the problem or flash back to a TW ROM.

[Q] Google Maps Traffic Graphics Messed Up?

I've encountered something on my VZW Galaxy Nexus that appears completely new to me. I did some online research but found no one with similar problems.
To give a little background, I encountered this problem after I hit the "traffic to home" Google Now tile which took me to Google Maps. After hitting this tile, though, the graphics for traffic on my Google Maps has become very low resolution. Normally, you see two lines on each freeway, one in each direction. Right now, those lines are all blurry and overlap to the point where I can't see both lanes. It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I zoom in enough, I can get it to look like it normally does, but zooming out slightly makes it go right back to fuzzy-garbage-traffic:
Anybody know what happened? I uninstalled and reinstalled Maps, but it didn't help.
I'm experiencing a similar issue on my Galaxy Note II on AT&T. I just noticed it yesterday. And it was after I flashed my phone to Cleanrom 4.7. If I zoom in closer, the lines become sharp and are no longer blurry. Not sure how to fix it.
Getting the same thing on my EVO on Sprint. It appears that people have started taking to posting comments in the Play store as well:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImNvbS5nb29nbGUuYW5kcm9pZC5hcHBzLm1hcHMiXQ..
I went a step further and reported it using the "Feedback" option in the map.

I'm getting this too on my Galaxy Note on CM10.1. I think this happened after the last update. Hope they fix it soon. Very annoying?

[Q] Vibration Issue

Since the day I flashed CM10.1, my vibrate has never worked. I didn't know if this was because of cm10, or because my phone was broken.. But I noticed that my phone still vibrates.. or sounds like it. It will vibrate enough for me to hear it, but not nearly enough for me to feel it. In fact, I can only hear it if it's completely silent. This makes me feel like it's because of CM10.1, but I can't see anywhere that anyone else has the same problem :/
Is there a way to make the vibration stronger? I want to try to revert it to the phone's GB state, but I have no idea how to do this, and I want to use CM10.1 regardless if vibration works or not, with all of my data, but I'm not sure how to use my "nandroid" backup to restore my data.. Any help please? Thanks

Check under sound settings for vibration intensity. Or look under advanced device settings.

I just flashed 10.1 testing my Avatar port, and I turn mine completely off . But I think it's settings/advanced/haptic.

i went to these settings, and i set intensity to 100%. Still, can't feel it
