I've had a O2 XDA Orbit for about 3 months now without any problems, but it seems to devloped a strange fautl today.
This morning (around 7am) the alarm went off as usual, but come about 10 when I tried to make a phone call the call was placed but I could not hear the other person (and she could not hear me). I checked out the phone and noticed that both volume sliders where set to off, changing them and I still could not get any sound out of the device.
In Settings Sounds & Notifications when I press the play button theres no sound, and trying the built in sound/video/midi results in no sound.
Oddly when someone calls, I changed the ring tone to an mp3 wich will play, but again I cant hear the caller, or they hear me.
I've done a soft reboot, with no help, before I tired a hard reset I was wondering if anyone else had any ideas?
I'm having exactly the same problem. If anyone has any advice regarding this I'd be greatly apperciated!
I got my TP2 on saturday and i notice that when i check my voice mail or when im on a phone call i can barley here the person on the other end unless i have them on speaker. I have tried adjusting my settings and i have the same issue. Has anybody had this issue? If so please tell me how you fixed it.
Thank you
Had some issues with the touch tones not working correctly with the speakerphone enabled. Didn't find any threads here on XDA but found a few over on a couple other android forums.
Basically it seems that when using the touch tones with speakerphone enabled, the mic picks up the speaker phone and the receiving end hears each touch tone twice.
I had the issue when trying to call verizon wireless to enter my passcode, as well as trying to setup my voice mail. I have 3 separate Galaxy Nexus phones in my family, and the issue can be replicated on all 3 phones.
Also noticed lowering the volume on the speakerphone can alleviate the issue too, but it's just kind of annoying as I don't want to hold the phone up next to my ear when I'm trying to enter things on the dial pad.
I've also tried switching the DTMF setting between long and normal, the problem still exists
Hoping with a firmware update they can filter out the touch tone, or just not make the touch tones audible to ourselves. (I'm assuming
this is because the speaker is so close to the mic on the GN)
Anyway, I don't think there's a fix for it yet, but I'm just posting here to see if anyone else is experiencing the same issue, and to make people aware of it.
Also found the issue on google support here:

Bump,
Anyone else run into the same issue? Or have some secret fix I don't know about? (Other than turning off the speaker lol)

This explains the problems I was having the other day trying to join a Go-To-Meeting - would not accept my pin.
I was on speaker phone too - ty for this !
I've had this problem on the GN and other devices as well. Sometimes I'll hit mute because it helps but also I don't want people/computer listening in.

Just realized this before I came to post, thanks for pointing it out too! Mute FTW!!!
i too noticed this as well when i first got it and think that it ridiculous that it wasnt thought out better.
Another fix: Simply turn off audible touch tones in the settings menu.
Drawback is there's no feedback for the dialpad, anyone know of a way to get the vibrate on for the dialpad?

This is the workaround I've been using for about a month now with no issues. I had the same issue where the conference call service wasn't getting my pass code entered correctly.
Only issue now is the headset echo heard by connected parties, which has been reported and hope to be fixed soon. I've tried several workarounds here but none have been bulletproof.
So recently I have been having a problem where if i make a call there is no ringing sound but the call still goes through....it's very annoying. I have eliminated the possibility that it could be the phone because I have 4 phones flashed to virgin mobile and none of them ring when making a call so it isn't a hardware/software issue. It is definitely a service issue. I called customer service but they had no idea what they were doing and just telling me to do things I already tried.
Does anyone know how to fix this? or is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Hello, I have been having this problem with my previous s10+ and it has continued into my zfold3 so this is not specific to the zfold3 but it is where I am experiencing this issue currently.
So the problem is when I am in a call and someone texts me I get a barely audible notification sound that I almost never actually hear. I have gone into the in call settings and only see an option to turn on/off in call notifications but no customization such as what tone to use nor the volume. I also tested this with notification volume set to around 25% vs 100% and it goes from no audible sound at all to a ding that is barely hearable in a completely quiet setting, but once you are in an actual real world situation of talking to someone you will not hear it.
I talk on the phone while using headphones, specifically buds live editions. I include this info in case its relevant, but I have tested while not using the earbuds and had the same result so I don't the headphones are the problem.
Am I missing something in the settings somehow where I can actually have control of in call notifications? With my previous phone I dont remember having this issue early on. After at least a year of using the s10+ this issue started happening and I couldnt figure it out, got the new phone and purposely did not connect the transfer cable and set it up and transfered files manually to avoid potentially having a bad setting transfer over and continuing this problem. Yet the problem still continues regardless. My best guess is its something that started after a big UI update or something like that. Hoping someone can give me some insight or advice on fixing this cause its causing me a lot of strife.
