Failure to end phonecalls on MM - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got a strange issue when, after a phonecall, I'm not able to terminate it through the "end call" button.
I can press the home key, but that doesn't end the call, but leaves me with the call still open.
Then when the other side ends the call, the phone stays in somesort of passive state, when I watch something on youtube/instagram when it happens the regular speaker doesn't work, but the sound is coming from the earpiece, as if it's still in a phonecall.. and I need to reboot the phone, in order for it to act normal again.
Very strange and it happens randomly, anyone else has this issue?
I'm on a H815 International with the 20D update, got it through LG Bridge and did a reset afterwards

Speaker Phone has stopped working

Hi All,
Just the other day my speaker phone stopped working. I can hear the people I am calling, but the microphone doesn't seem to work. They cant' hear me. Not at all, it is like I have the phone muted-- but it is not.
Any body else with this? Any ideas, besides hard reset to try?
Thanks

There are loads of software apps that could interfere with sound, have you installed anything recently that you can remember?
have you applied any "tweaks" that you can remember.
Does it only happen when on speaker-phone or during normal calls.
It may be worth removing the back cover to make sure that nothing has interfered with the Mic Mute button on the rear of the device.
Give us some more info an I'll try to help further.
Cheers,

Hi Beast0898
Here is a list of software that I have installed in the last 2 weeks:
CarlosP ToneManager
cRaCKwHoRe's Snooze options
merlot mToolbox
Shubaroo Contact Fix
tarkim Keyboard controller.
I had not used the speaker phone for a while. Not since I installed any of the above, so if it is a software interference, it could be any of the above. Ideas?
The mute button is not blocked. And it happens when I enter speaker phone by turning it upside down, and when enabling it with the button on the dialer.
Any ideas?
Did you get it to work? I've encountered a weird problem recently myself where suddenly all system sounds seem to stop, including dialing tones etc.. but if I let the phone go into speaker phone mode, that does work. I hang up the call and suddenly sounds are back.
It seems to only happen when I use Groovefish and/or Nitrogen, so I wonder if one of those is causing some weirdness, just haven't pinned it down yet.
if this is the same bug I had on mine, you can either toggle the speaker phone button twice or do this:-
There is an easy workaround for this problem. On your Touch Pro 2 go to the home screen. Slide to the "Settings" tab. Tap the "Menu" softkey and choose "All Settings". Tap "Personal" then "Phone". Open the "Advanced" tab and change "Reduce noise in phone calls" to "Never".

Here is a fix without turning off noise cancellation.

Speaker making hissing / crackling sounds during sporadic calls

I ordered a Galaxy Nexus from Clove, and oddly enough I have not experienced the volume bug issue as of yet.
I am however having some issues with weird static / hissin / crackling noises being emitted from the speaker when I make or receive calls.
I can make 5-6 calls in a row without the issue occuring, then suddenly while dialing the same number for the seventh time (voice mail to not drive friends nuts ) the noises will commence immediately.
If I put the call on loud-speaker, the noises disappear instantly, and reappear when I turn off the loud-speaker. As soon as I end the call, the noises stop as well.
Also sometimes immediately after a call, the static / hissing noises will commence for 2-3 seconds, then stop.
Have anyone experienced anything similar? My guess is faulty hardware and that I have to return my phone? :/
I seem to get a quick static "pop" immediately as a call is being connected.
Not an OMG SHOWSTOPPER but kind of annoying. Perhaps it will be fixed in a future update.
I have a pop sound. What network are you on? I bought from Clove too and very much have Ghost SAV. I use Orange no problem but GiffGaff which uses O2 is affected. 900 GSM 2G is the issue and orange does not use it AFAIK.
The Pop occurs when I tap the screen. It is very faint. Then if I do nothing then after 5 seconds it pops again. If I pinch rather than tap then it doesn't do it.
The Pop is from the rear big speaker, not the ear peice

And your in the USA didn't think it would affect us, Where did you buy from ?
This is more than a "soft pop". The static/hissing noises I am experiencing are loud enough to make it impossible to hear what the recipient of the call is saying. Only solution is to hang up and re-dial.
Only happens every once in a while, but definitely a "showstopper" in regards to rendering the phone useless for like 20% of the calls

Have you worked out why this is happening?
I've had this problem with my GN too from Clove.co.uk, using GiffGaff network in the UK. I can pretty much replicate this problem every time I make a call - does the proximity sensor trigger the crackling noise? It does in my case.
I sent my phone back to Clove a few months ago, who sent it back to Samsung. They appeared not to do anything, flash the phone with their own version of firmware (removing my yakju build) and getting back to me 3 weeks later. I wasnt happy. In any case, I've put it back to yakju and the problem is still there. Love the phone, but dont need the hassle of being without a smart phone for a few weeks again. Urgh.
Anyone else had this?
EDIT: This seems to have been fixed in 4.0.4 (IMM76D)

Audio Bugs After a Call

Hi All,
I have my Galaxy Nexus about a week now, so far I am quite happy with it. It's my 1st Android. It's a GSM one.
I have noticed an odd issue, and am wondering if others could test and see if they are getting it, on either GSM or 4G.
On to the issue.
It can happen in two different ways with the same outcome.
The first way it happens:
I receive a phone call. I answer the call as normal. I immediately hear the other party on the call for a split second, then a split second later I hear my ringtone through the earpiece for a split second. Then the call will carry on as normal.
Once the call has been finished, I will then notice a delay in certain sounds. E.g. I will try dial another number on the Dialpad, and the tones will be delayed by several seconds or just don't play. And when I hit buttons on the screen, e.g. recent apps, The usual click is delayed by a couple of seconds and is followed by a second click.
If I open the Music app or the YouTube app and play music/video, both audio and video play fine, but when I hit pause on either it will pause then play for a split second again, then pause and stay paused.
Sometimes if I receive another call afterwards; my ringtone will, instead of playing from the start, play from where it was when I answered my last call.
The second way it happens is if I call someone. When I press the hang up button, I will hear a tone in the earpiece, followed by the same tone through the speaker. I will then have all the weird audio bugs as above.
Restarting the phone resolves the post call issues, of course until I receive another call.
As I said, I am wondering if anybody else is experiencing this? It is a little bit odd, to say the least.
So I had a brain wave.
I went through all my apps and did a force stop on every one that was a downloaded non stock app.
I tried the steps above to reproduce the issue and I couldn't.
So It seems that an app I have installed is causing the issue.
Now to find out which one.
I will report back when I do.
And the culprit is Air PlayIt.
I will continue testing other apps just in case.

[Q] Speakerphone toggles off by itself

On stock rooted 4.1.2 AT&T.
When I put a call on speakerphone, it often reverts spontaneously back to the earpiece after a certain amount of time...does this happen to anyone else? I'm wondering if it's a common glitch or from a defective handset. It happens both when the screen times out and when it's on. The speakerphone button still shows it being on when it's off already - I have to hit it twice more to get the speakerphone going again

Strange call waiting behavoir after upgrade to 11

Standard phone no customisations.
Really strange behaviour after recently upgrading to Android 11
If someone calls me and I answer, then after abut two minutes, while still on the phone, I get the call waiting tone.
When I look at the phone it is always the same person that I am talking to calling me again, even though I am still connected to them.
There is no way of getting rid of this second call, the only solution is to reboot the phone.
If I answer the second call the caller hears the "please hold message" and the call goes silent and a reboot is the only way out of it.
Anyone else seen anything like this, I have turned of "call waiting notification" to see if it stops.
