Basically, if I boot up my phone and try to make a phone call (or immediately receive one), the call goes through no problem.
After setting aside the S2 for about 30 minutes, if I try to make a call or anything of the sort - the call connects but I don't hear dial tone, audio, etc. Just 0 sound. I can fix by rebooting.
I have tried flashing a few different ROMs to no avail. Currently downgraded to 4.3.1 AOKP Hercules (cyanogen kernel) from Beanstalk 4.4...
Messed around with settings and such multiple times. It's almost like the sound just shuts off after not touching the phone for a while. I can still use MMS, SMS, and data while this problem occurs. And people on the other end can't hear me either.
What might be the problem?
Update: So it appears to be an integral sound issue. For a few hours, data/service/calling works and WiFi doesn't. Then, all of a sudden, WiFi starts working and this audio bug occurs. I can use earphones to listen in on calls before the bug happens, but if I try to plug in headphones and make a call after the bug it just crashes the phone.

I think it may have something to do with your radio.
What is your Baseband version?
I'm using UVMC6

Nb... actually I've discovered that sound seems to disappear altogether, not just for calls.
I'm having an odd issue with my TP2: audio seems to inermittently stop working during calls.
Sometimes it works fine and other times there's no audio at all (either held to ear or on speaker). On speaker, there's a buzzing noise but nothing discernable at all.
The change from audio to no audio can occur mid call, but I haven't figured out if anything in particular is happening at the time. If I soft reset I get audio back, although it does sometimes also come back on its own.
I'm using a 6.5 rom (TPC 5.5) and the most recent radio.
Any ideas?
Anyone have any suggestions on this?
why dont you hard reset???
Today, I did my cardio but had to take a call. During the conversation, however, the earspeaker started to pop a few times and then I did not hear anything anymore. I must say that I was sweating heavily and the call lasted about 20 min.
The phone works as usual except I do not have any sound when playing media (mp3, youtube). Ringtone for calls, ringtone selection and sms work (ring), whattsapp doesn't. Re-installing whattsapp and flashing the new aosp build did not help here.
Should a new earspeaker do the trick or is there more possibly broken hardware?
I was talking about the built-in speaker, not about some headphones.

Try taking the battery out and sticking it in rice. It probably won't help, but at this point it might be worth a try.
I think you have the exactly same issue as mine =[

I know this is an old thread, but I had the exact same thing happen to me today. I was working outside, and was sweating while I was talking on the phone. All of the sudden, I heard a slight pop, then nothing. My earpiece will not play any sound at all. I have to use speakerphone when I am talking on the phone.
Did you ever find a solution to this? I'm thinking that I might need to replace the speaker.
Thanks
So I've been browsing the forums trying to look for anyone with a similar issue but to no avail. Now I'm not sure if this issue pertains to CM9 but I've noticed that ever since I've flashed RC1 or a later nightly, every app that uses the microphone reverts the phone speaker to call speaker. This is highly irritating as I have to put my ear to the phone every time I want to hear say, music, notifications etc. I usually reset this by plugging in a pair of headphones and then taking it back out, however the problem still persists every time I use the mic. This does not happen during calls so that's fine.
I am quite certain that this isn't hardware related because it only happens after using the microphone through some app and resets itself using the headphone workaround or a reboot. Again, I don't know if this is a singled out issue or if it pertains to the phone or the latest CM9 ROM.
Any help would be appreciated.
So after updating to RC2 and then again to the latest Nightly (20120802) I still have no luck with my loud speaker and my call speaker. To test this I usually use the Tune Me app and mess around with it and record some things but after using the app, instead of playing through the loud speaker like its supposed to, it plays audio through the call speaker.
Also, when I previewed CM10 and was playing around with Google Now with voice the same thing occurred. I don't know if there's a conflicting issue with some apps I've installed or something that installing the ROM did but any form of support would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi all
I just received my Tmobile Note 3 today and I can hear a strange sound coming from the earpiece. I just noticed it now when I tried to make a call.
It sounds like a screeching 56K modem - do you remember that sound whenthe modem starts to dial, sometimes the sound is like when there is an interference when you are near a PA system...
It is louder at the beginning of a re-start just before the main screen comes.
I have listened to my S3 and S4 in the same location, and they are silent.
I have restarted a few times, disabled wifi and mobile internet, removed sim card, factory reset from recovery to no avail. Changed location to another room. The sound coming from the earpiece is still there.
Can you please try listening to your phone if you can hear anything...
Thanks a lot
Mine doesn't do that.

Hello!
I have an unusual problem with my Note 2
Few days ago I tried to make a call but I couldn't - I heard the Note's sound that the call started but I heard no ringing. When a person picks up, I don't hear them and they don't hear me. When I hang up and redial, phone loses reception completely.
I thought that it is maybe an issue with mic and speaker, however Viber calls work fine. It is not an issue with SIM, it works fine in other phones.
I am running completely unrooted, never touched stock ROM.
I tried a factory reset and it didn't help.
Could anyone help me what this is and how can I fix it? Thanks!
