In call audio problems - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

My wife's S2 is having in call audio.problems. It was running unnamed 1.20 when it started. I tried CM7 and brought it back to stock with no luck. The problem still remains. When she recives a call the caller sounds robotic and cuts in and out. Keep it mind it does the same thing in speaker mood and with headsets/headphones. Strangely enough everything else works fine. Music plays fine on the speakers and with headphones.
Any ideas why this is happening?
She said my 10 month old son got a hold of it and chewed on it a lil. If its water damage I wouldn't expect it to play music...

[Q] Buzzing or Crackling during calls.

My wife decided to switch from the EVO to the Photon two days ago after messing around with mine and seeing my battery life was better than hers. Yesterday she started getting a buzzing/crackling noise while on calls. Does not show up when playing music, steaming netfix, etc. Checked under setting on both phones and firmware, PRL and everything are exactly the same and I don't have the issue so not sure what is causeing it. Have done factory reset, lowered call volume and still it shows up.
Anyone else have this issue and know how to resolve it?
I had similar problems with my earpiece speaker. It started intermittently, and slowly became constant.had to get the phone replaced.

I have this all the time when streaming music in my car. It is very audible even with low volume on the car stereo. I never had this issue with my old HTC Hero in the car.
Took it back to the store and once they heard it, they replaced it.

No sound in calls unless on speakerphone.

I've recently noticed that I don't get sound when making a phone call unless I change to speakerphone. I don't make many calls so I don't know exactly how long it's been happening, but I first noticed it a couple weeks ago. I know that the other person can hear me fine when I'm on either setting. I've also switched ROMs, from Alien to the new CM7 beta, with no change.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is it most likely a hardware problem? I've never dropped my phone or anything, and it's only 3 months old. Does anyone know of an app that can test the normal phone speaker, because all other sounds have been working fine.
Thanks for any suggestions!

My guess is it's a hardware problem. I would have it checked out by your mobile phone company.
You can also look up "hardware test" in market and you will find apps there you can use to test your hardware. Sorry not to recommend one. There are many there if you look them up.

Thanks for the response. I looked for an app already and didn't find anything useful. There were tests for just about everything else; touch screen, sensors, GPS, etc., and only two that I found that had an audio test at all. However, neither of them allowed me to specifically test the "phone" speaker.
I just think it's weird that all other sounds work fine. I'd really rather test it before I send it in to Motorola.
Thanks again!
This was a common issue on the Motorola Defy's. I had to send mine to Moto for repair. If you're within a year, AT&T will replace it.
I am having this exact same problem with homebase. but mine is intermittent it will work straight after a reboot
More sound issues
In my case I just updated from Froyo to Gingerbread, everything was working perfectly, when suddenly i stopped listening to the earpiece, the loudspeaker still works during calls,
On the other hand, if I try listening to music or any other sound, the loudspeakers dont work... any ideas of what could have caused the problem? It feels like some sort of driver issue, because while trying our the earpiece and loudspeaker during a call I was able to listen to one second of conversation through the earpiece...
i do have exactly the same issue...
putting pressure just beneath the fingerprint scanner, makes the earpiece work for an instant ...
its definitely a hardware issue...
m really fed up with dead spots on touchscreen n this earpiece issue....

Audio Crackling/Popping while playing music

Is anyone having the issue where the audio is crackling? Out both my speaker and even over Bluetooth. I'm trying to figure out is it's the Rom or my phone.
Wow I just started using Play Music and I'm hearing the same thing. I'm on redruM lean v2.1.

I believe the volumes in the phone is wrong, I think they did it to sound more loud, but I don't like it sometimes

I get the same issue too, but only when music is NOT playing. Basically if I have my phone in plugged in through the headphone jack it start to make this sound. It can be rather annoying and it reminds me of when like the sound on my ipod is WAY louder than the sound I have set through my speakers and you get this humming sound. What I have noticed though, is if I just turn the sound down faintly instead of pausing. I don't hear the sound.
I am hearing little bubbling sounds when listening to Slacker Radio. I thought some app was running in background (had something like this with Hanging With Friends on my Galaxy Note), but still occurs if every other app is closed.
Wow you got to be kidding me. My X2 does this all the time and it's annoying. Looks like I may have to use supercharger on this phone too.
What rom are you all using??
Exchange the phone. My replacement sound fine. You have 35 days to return the defected phone. I'm still waiting for a way to reset the custom binary count before I send it back.

vipre 2.0 sound issues??

So just seemed to start... My headphones and ear piece are fine during a call or whatnot, its mainly the phone speaker it self
On YouTube vids n music with no headphones. Its almost a whisper, which is weird cause I didn't reflash anything, and it worked
Less then a week ago if I do remember correctly. Any advice? Is this a radio problem??
It would probably be best asking this question in the viper thread itself.

[Q] Earpiece and Speaker sound acting weird

Okay so earlier today I was eating lunch and I managed to spill water on my phone. I immediately went and dried it out and then turned it back on. Everything appeared to be working except the sound. I had the Xperia Z1, so I knew you had to wait a little before the sound would return back to normal out the speaker port, so I waited but it still wasn't working. Upon further investigation, I discovered that it would play my ringtone(a song from my SD Card), notification tone and the noise it makes when you adjust the volume using the buttons but it would not play my music through the music player app at all. It also wouldn't play sound out of the earpiece so I could only hear the only person if my phone was on speaker. The speaker is back to it's normal sound now but it still won't play music, things through youtube or pandora and my earpiece still isn't working. Is this a software issue or is it a hardware thing? It's very strange. I'm using XtreStoLite right now and I'm downloading a stock rooted rom and I'm gonna flash it to see if that changes anything, but has anyone else ever experienced anything like this? What would my options be as far as fixing the problem? Thanks in advanced for all your answers, and also, the water damaged sticker is still pearly white so I don't think it's water damaged. I already tried reseting, taking my battery out and factory reseting as well.

Wowza, what a wall of text. Paragraphs please, as that is too hard to read all the way through.
One possibility is moisture or dried crud in the headphone or USB jacks leading the phone to think that a headset is connected. Hardware damage seems a lot less likely.
Or it could be an unrelated and coincidental software issue. Do you have a known good backup that you could try restoring?
