I've noticed a couple other older threads about this, but I figured I would refresh the issue. I have the same issue with my Jawbone disconnecting when another call comes in. I have to put it to speaker then back to the Jawbone to return to the call. There has to be other people out there with this problem. Extremely annoying!!

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.
Wanted to ask if anybody else is having dropped calls?
Using the headset included in the box and another one that I have that I know works the call kept cutting out after 5 minutes or so and then the call hanging if I did not wake up the screen.
I thought it was a phone issue obviously, but if I leave the screen on and play around with it, then the phone call does not hang.....
Also if the sound cut out and before the call was dropped, if I wokeup the screen then we could hear each other again.
Has anyone else got this issue? I am on the original Three firmware v1.26.xxx, handset was sim locked but now sim unlocked.....
And since then I have tried calling with just the speakerphone and the call did not drop, not used the phone for long or with the speaker near my ear as I usually use a headset.
Thanks.
Bump, someone must have used the headset and made a long 10 minute+ call?
Using without a headset and the speakerphone the call has not dropped.
I only use a bluetooth headset but i don't seem to have problems with it (and i realy talk alot at the phone).
Just FYI this does not happen anymore for me after installing the 1.28 update from Three..... Still waiting on the other updates for other fixes!
So a friend of mine has a Sprint Galaxy S3 running the latest official Jellybean 4.1.2 that the phone came installed with. The phone has issues with transmitting voice audio, specifically when WiFi is on. To elaborate:
-When talking on the phone with a headset plugged in, my friend's phone emits an intermittent buzzing noise that is audible to the person on the other end, but not her. The noise lasts for a moment, and then goes away. It sounds exactly the same every time it is heard, but happens at random times.
-Whenever using VoIP apps such as Skype/Google Hangouts with a headphone mic plugged in and WiFi on, an extremely loud static/crackling noise is heard by the person she is talking to. The moment WiFi is disabled, the crackling/static is gone, and the other person hears her clearly. Again, she does not hear any of this noise, the person she is talking to does.
-Unplugging the headset in both occasions and using the phone's mic nearly eliminates the amount of static heard. However, in VoIP apps, again, static is heard by the person she is talking to when she speaks, but is less noticeable than with the headset plugged in.
-In all instances, the static/buzz is gone when she disables WiFi and uses mobile data while talking on the phone or Skype/Hangouts.
I've tested this issue with her and the noise is similar to the rapid tapping of a Geiger counter. Is anyone familiar with this issue? Is there a fix? She returned the first phone for a second, and both have the problem. If there's no solution, she is highly considering returning the GS3 and seeking a different model. Thanks!

Did you ever find a solution to this issue? I have the exact same problem. Did you try a different mic than the standard samsung one? You are the only person I've been able to find online even mentioning this issue =/
I know someone with the same issue on the SIII Neo in the UK. I do not know of any solution at all. Brand new phone. Odd for Samsung
Anyone have isssues with their bluetooth headset ?
I have a Plantronics m70 and a m165 and if there is an incoming call, and i press the headset button to answer, both headsets will answer and drop the call right away...
Is there a setting or soemthing that I missed?
Update: I've tried with a samsung bluetooth device and it does the same thing. Also whats weird now is that when I have the Samsung bluetooth connected and I tap on the screen to answer the call, it answers and drops the call.
Can anyone help ?
Something similar just happened in the car a few minutes ago. Add that to my bluetooth problems.

Yeah. It's annoying.
I cannot answer a call while on a Bluetooth headset. I have to deny the fall and call them back.
I tried with a Motorola bluetooth headset today and same thing.
I've done some more testing and noticed that with calls from landlines, the calls don't get answered and dropped. It gets answered normally.
I should add that I am rooted and running the ROM from tx_dbs_tx.
I have the same issue with rooted stock rom as well.
I cant figure out why this is happening but when i am in the call on speakerphone the phone will sometimes just turn off speaker and revert to the phone earpiece but the software still thinks its in speaker mode thus the only way to go back to speaker is to change the audio to handset first then reenable speaker.. this can sometimes happen several times withing a single call. I also have an android wear watch that is paired via bluetooth which i though may be the culprit but i have noticed it even when my watch is dead... anyone else?
Having same issue when connected to Bluetooth in my car. It will change output and I have to manually put it on phone headset then back. Sometimes it will just drop a call all together. Usually 6 minutes approx into the call. I am on Verizon 7.1.1. NMF260. Anyone else still having these issues on most recent update as I am.
Yeah I noticed it to. Thought it was my Android wear watch so I turned off gestures thinking the wrist movements were switching the output. I haven't had a chance to retest.

I am going to resurrect this thread because I'm having the same issue and it's one of the most infuriating things ever. To have my private conversation suddenly switch to speakerphone, or to be in the car and have it switch from car speakers to speakerphone is frustrating beyond words!
I have the issue as well. Sometimes it happens when another calls comes in or when a notification comes in, but also happens randomly. Pixel 2, Android 9.
Back from the dead
Odd bug, any mention of it on the bug tracker?
