For some reason when I answer a call the phone automatically mutes my voice, yet does not show it's muted on the handset, I can hear the other person clear as day.
Is this a known problem and are there any solutions?
Anyone know of any issues with this or fixs?
No-one??? can help?
Does the problem also present itself when you call someone?
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)
Hi all.
I got my Xperia S two days ago and I'm experience a minor annoyance. Sometimes - 3 or 4 times so far - when I place a call there's no sound at all. The screen shows the call has been answered and the counter rolls, but I hear no sound at all. The person who answers it doesn't either. I have to hang up and place another call - then everything works fine again.
It's happened these 3 or 4 times out of about 30 calls I've placed so far, so I'm worried that I'll take it to assistance and they won't be able to replicate it.
Anyone else had this?
Even when I have full signal and LTE I'll sometimes hear the other people on the line sound so garbled fading in and out that I miss a couple words here and there. Anyone else ever experience this intermittently? I've had it happen four times the past two days
yes im having that problem too every time i receive a call, they say i sound like robot, but when i call back is not, i disable wifi calling but not solve that
Hi I'm having a problem with phone calls - I can hear the other party but they can't hear me.
This issue happens often, but not every time, and I need to restart my phone to fix it.
Anyone have any suggestions for permanently fixing it?
Thanks
