Hey everyone. im from the Hero CDMA forum. i have made audio fix patches for the hero that fixed the audio loss for 2.1 roms.
I recently ended development for the audio fixes because the issue began to rise in people with stock heros. but with that aside, i will create a fix for eris users if enough of you have the problem. i believe i have seen 7-8 people with it. anyways leave a comment telling me you have the issue, when it happened, what roms cause it, and what your software builds are, and what roms dont cause the issue. thanks for the cooperation and i hope i can help
Hey Avalaunchmods!
Thanks for the help with this! I am running the Aloysius (Coincidentally a Hero port):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=663893
Audio usually cuts out for me when I am receiving a notification. It will kind of stutter/jitter and then continue to play.
one of my custom ringtones cut out on an incoming call once, but only once. so it may have only been a fluke. hadnt happened before or after.

I get the same using VanillaDroid ROM.
Thanks for the help!
I have had this problem pop up intermittently, but with increasing regularity (up to 2-3 times daily at its worst). The sound profile and volumes remain unchanged, but sometimes for no apparent reason, all audio drops. If I get a call, there is no ringer. If I get a notification, there is no audible alert. If I place/answer a call, the earpiece/speakerphone are silent, and the other party doesn't hear me. The rest of the phone's functions still work, and vibrate still works, but there is no audio from any apps or OS functions until I reboot the phone.
As for particular triggers, I haven't found any yet. I had been running ivan's 0.8t2, but have downgraded to his older 0.5.4 to see if the problem is fixed. So far it hasn't popped up, but it's only been a few days.
Thanks again for your willingness to help. I'll be sure to let you know if I see the problem resurface.
I know the fix is only possible in rooted phones, but I wanted to chime in and let you know that a lot of people on 2.1 leak v2 non-rooted are having this issue, so you can see some of the symptom reports in these threads on androidforums:

I have a non-rooted phone and I have the same issues...
If by audio problems, you mean no sound via ringtones, notification or voice over the ear piece, then I have experienced it with Ivan's 08T2. I've had it happen about three times. I did a reboot and it corrected it.
another Aloysius user here, and yep, audio problems out the wazoo. good thing I text mostly.
alright this got moved to general?
i though this would fit in development haha.
anyways ill get on a fix i believe. ill put it somewhere. not dev..
I've had audio issues, but the only thing that seems to cause it for me us getting a force close on any program that is currently playing audio, such as a music player or (worse) an alarm clock.
I've never had audio just randomly cut out on me, but it definitely all stops working after such a force close
I'm having the same audio issues. I'm currently on VanillaDroid v1.0. I experienced the issue on the eris21official-root ROM as well. It usually happens after I use the camera to snap a few pictures. If I don't use the camera, it is pretty stable. Let me know if you need any further information.

Avalaunchmods,
Since the Droid Eris kernel code was made available from HTC, have you been able to make any further progress fixing the audio loss bug for the Eris and Hero?
Right now the only solution we know of is to replace the phone. (Those of us who have gotten warranty replacements have not had the problem resurface.)
But even if the problem is related to certain hardware, it seems like there might be a way to fix the kernel's *reaction* to the problem, so that the phone doesn't become unusable.
Having the problem too.
Happened on Evil Eris and Ivans.
Any update on this? I am having the same issue on both CyanogenEris v1.1 and ELB-Cyanogen.
i am having this issue as well, running Ivans Eris_Official 1.0 Alpha. Experienced this issue on the 0.82t also. No audio from the phone's earpiece (speakerphone wont work either) when a call comes in, or if i try to call them back. have to reset the phone and then it works. I'm running setcpu at 710 now, but i wasn't on 0.82t so probably not the culprit.
My software version stats, in case it matters -
Firmware - 2.1
Baseband - 2.42.00.04.12

hi..i'm havin this issue too!
I'm on a froyo rom now. I was on an xtr rom when I noticed this problem. Tried to flash a new rom to get rid of it and it's still there. I can use the phone for a few hours and then the only way i can answer calls is through speakerphone.

Audio Problem
I've had this problem every since the 2.1 update. My wife and I both had it (we both have a Eris) on unrooted phones. I rooted to ErisLightning and still had it, switched to Tainted Vanilla, and now I'm on Lightning Bolt. My wife is on Droid Does Pink and we've had the problem with every single rom. Sometimes when we receive or make calls, the phone will go completely mute. We can't hear the other person and they can't hear us. We can't hear a ring tone if calling someone either.
I use Google Voice and I sometimes get ghost voicemails. It will save the entire length of the voicemail, but it will be completely mute. Even if I restart and re-open GV it's still mute.
For now, we're just rebooting whenever we have this problem. Seems to be the only way to get audio back.
Is anyone else having issues with the other party hearing you in call? I have a case, and no matter if I have it on or off, the other party can't hear me unless I talk louder than normal. I don't recall having to talk that loud on my iPhone to be heard. Was happening on CM7 and latest UnNamedROM.
I've encountered the same issue. I've been running unnamed since the day I got my phone, and am ocrrently on 2.2.1. I've read of others having this issue as well. I've also read somewhere that disabling the noise canceling feature supposedly helps. I've done so, but not sure if or how much it helps, as I can't hear myself from the other end. Perhaps someone else can chime in with advice regarding this topic.
So I was doing some more tests. It seems I might be holding the phone away from my face when I speak in an effort to not get face grease on the screen. Will have to do more testing to verify.

I too have this issue whenever I use the UCKK6 modem after the OTA update. Whenever I was on the UCKH7 firmware + modem, I had no problems and when I use the UCKK6 firmware + UCKH7 modem, I also don't have problems.
When using the UCKK6 modem though, I get a LOT of people complaining that they can't hear me and will sometimes even hang up on me because they think my call dropped (I'm still there though and can hear them perfectly).
It sounds like your mouth is being muffled or like you are underwater- or like you are randomly teleporting yourself across the room, while leaving your phone in one place.
I have done several tests myself by calling my house phone with my cell and putting the house phone on mute (to prevent echo). I then hold both phones to each ear and basically talk to myself. One test even involves me saying the alphabet. I have done these tests several times using both modems.
My tests gave me the conclusion that the K6 modem is buggy, but is especially unusable with the noise suppression turned on. When on, certain syllables seem to get cancelled out by the noise suppression, as though it thinks that part of it is background noise. However, even with the noise suppression off, I still get the occassional fading of my voice, but it is extremely occassional compared to when the noise suppression feature is on, where it is almost every couple words or so.
With the H7 modem, I notice no problems whatsoever, whether the noise suppression is on or off.
So, I recommend doing one of the following if you are experiencing these issues:
1) Revert completely back to UCKH7 firmware and modem if you want/need the noise suppression.
2) Use the UCKK6 firmware with the UCKH7 modem if you want/need the noise suppression.
3) Continue using UCKK6 firmware and modem, but turn the noise suppression off.
1 and 2 are sure fire ways to not have any issues at all. 3 may still give you problems, but it may happen once every few minutes with noise suppression off (still there, but not nearly as noticeable), while once every couple syllables with the feature on (very freaking noticeable!).

So I started having this issue a couple days ago.
I've tried going back to the KH7 modem and still not working. I even tried restoring to stock.
Mic works fine in speakerphone mode, but I get absolutely no sound otherwise (I can shout into the phone and the other side hears nothing). Noise suppression toggle doesn't do anything.
Thoughts?
I guess I'll try taking the phone into ATT this weekend.
^
That sounds like hardware issues, so yeah, bring it back to ATT.

If it works fine in speakerphone mode that means it isn't a hardware problem -_-
Try this. Open up your phone and...
Type this in: *#*#197328640#*#*
Click on [5] AUDIO
Click on [8] AUDIENCE SETTING
Click on [2] AUDIENCE DISABLE
then try out a test call and see if it works

The above code does not work on AT&T version, I guess. At least it did not work for me. Don't know if root makes any difference, yes I can have booster apps. But again people have reported that this does not seem to work.
I happen to read in International s2 forum that opening the phone and making a bigger hole for mic helps. Or even cutting a slice of the white protective casing around the lower micophone seems to help as well. I did not want to tamper with hardware at the moment, as I am just 10 days past my warranty period.
Let me know if someone knows some funky codes to get this fixed. I am running 2.3.4 stock ROM and not rooted yet.
- Thanks

I'm on AT&T and the code worked for me, however I'm still having the issue. I don't necessarily think messing with the hardware by cutting or slicing will fix it because (for me at least) the problem is intermittent. Sometimes I'll go afew days without the problem, then I can have 3 calls back to back where the person doesn't hear me at all. It can happen both when I initiate the call or answer and it doesn't always happen in the same point of the call. This is pretty frustrating, I really hope there's a fix because I don't want to have to convert to stock and deal with AT&T.
I had this issue. Mine was not intermittent, the mic just stopped working. No amount of flashing or resets from ATT could make it work again.
Strangely enough the speakerphone worked fine and that just screams software issue, but AT&T chose to replace my hardware.
The problem seems to be intermittent for me too.... I don't know how the code works for Griffon23, as AT&T has disabled that on our model. I have not updated to 2.3.6 as the firmware ushers in loads of problems.
I really hope there is a fix, I am just being lazy to flash new roms and stuff, as I might have to return this piece of S#$#t due the low volume and poor mic. Such a shame that expensive phone like this has issues with basic functionality, voice calls.
I also tried good in ear headphones, that solves the problem of low in call volume but not microphone, which simply points that there is some internal problem. May be hardware or may br firmware. And May be ICS update can fix this for us. Fingers crossed.
Thank you Samsung!

THIS. I was having a similar problem a while back. People were telling me that my voice was cutting in and out a lot. Not even looking for it, I found this thread and flashed the UCKH7 modem. I also read somewhere that it helps battery life too as that's what I was searching for.
Anyway, It's now been several weeks now and I had forgotten about the problem until I saw this thread again. I guess I'd have to say that the UCKH7 modem definitely solved my problems as I can't remember the last time someone complained about my voice cutting in and out.
Since this is the only thread similarly related to my issue, I'll continue this one instead of starting a new one. So I've tried the above listed suggestions and the dial code for the audio does not work for me, as a matter of fact, none of the dial codes work for my phone, I get a "Invalid MMI code or no connection" error. I Have not been able to make a call on speakerphone since I flashed my phone for the first time back when I first got it. I've switched around from different ROMs and I get the same issue. The main issue is that no one can hear me when I'm on speakerphone, but I can hear them. I can make regular calls just fine. I've even flashed back to stock and the issue still persists. Are there any suggestions? I am currently on the latest AOKP build of ICS.
If you've been flashing different ICS roms, there's a chance you flashed one of the mic-swapped kernels. Try the AOSP/AOKP version of NEAK. Make sure to wipe cache and dalvik before flashing.
EDIT: Didn't read your post closely enough, if regular calls work, the kernel shouldn't be the problem. Maybe the modem? UCKH7 is what most people report with good results, depending on area.
Have you ever been able to use the speakerphone? Do you know for certain that it works?

I just came across this thread after a long time. I was surprised to see how much it has grown!p and how many people haod similar issues as me!
Well, I kind of wanted to give an update and suggestion for those who still have issues.
First my update. Since having these issues in UCKK6 and ICS leaks, I actually gave up on ATT's firmware and moved on to custom ROMs. Currently- and loving it- I'm on a ROM called Mystic's Pride (will be going to Mystic's Glory, a more advanced version- once it is out of Beta testing). Mystic's ROMs are ported firmwares from the international SGS2, but they use the latest ATT modems since the international version's will not work on our phones.
Using a custom ROM will NOT fix the call quality issue. That is all linked to the modem.
Now the suggestions. While running UCKK6, I discovered that you could use the UCKH7 modem with it. So for a while (until I noticed excess battery drain issues), i was using the UCKK6 firmware with the UCKH7 modem.
NO MATTER WHAT VERSION FIRMWARE YOU ARE USING (Gingerbread OR ICS), YOU CAN USE THE UCKH7 MODEM!
As I stated in my update, I am running a custom ROM now, which is Android 4.0.4. Im still using the UCKH7 modem and my calls are super clear and I am not having any issues with people hearing me.
You may be asking, "If you are now on ICS, then why not just use the latest ATT ICS modem?" The answer is simply that after all of my experiences with horrible call quality using official ATT modems, I simply do not trust them anymore. I know of one modem that works, so I have stuck with it without issues. I plan to test out the newest ICS modem though... just to see how it compares with UCKH7. If no good, then its back to KH7.
So, if you are still having issues, then try flashing the UCKH7 modem to your phone. You do not need to be rooted in order to do this. All you need is Odin and to boot into Download mode.
If you flashed the KH7 modem and still having issues, then you most likely have a hardware problem.
Another thing I noticed while still using UCKK6 with its corresponding modem is that by turning off the Noise Suppression, you can get better quality calls. However, using UCKH7 modem may make your calls clearer, but will allow you to use Noise Suppression.
I hope this helps somewhat. I have NOT sent my phones in for repairs/replacement for this issue and my calls are just as clear as the day I bought my phone.
Ill try to pop in here to answer questions, etc if needed.

Lol spexwood, I know you're trying to be helpful, but I gotta let you know your post is way old news. It's been common knowledge for a long time that you can flash any ATT I777 modem with any firmware, using ClockworkMod Recovery. It is useful (to me at least, didn't know this before) to know you can also use Odin to flash modems if you don't have CWM, but most I777 users around here have it because they use custom kernels and ROMs. There's a whole thread which contains every single modem in CWM-flashable zips, and it also contains a Google map with notes about which modems users have reported working best for them in their respective locations; this might be helpful to you if you didn't know about it beforehand.
tl;dr - try all the different modems to see which one gives you the best speeds and call quality in your area, they are interchangeable. Use this thread to help you out.
This is one problem I've had when completely stock, ics, and jb. And it mostly occurs when I have ear phones plugged in

I don't remember when exactly it all started but I've been experiencing random and frequent data drops on my thunderbolt.
I tried flashing every possible radio, kernel and rom combination and finally came to conclusion that call master app is causing this.
does anyone has a recommendation for a radio/rom that actually works with call master? or at least a real call master alternative? I tried many call blockers and none of them come close to call master.
please help, I'm going crazy about this issue!
P.S. If someone has older version of call master, could you please send it to me so I can see if that fixes my problem. I have purchased the key, I just believe that newest update screwed my data.

I don't know about call master but I know that it has been reported by several members, including myself, that there have been frequent data drops. It has been happening over the course if a month in different areas. So it could be in fact a Verizon thing.

Mine recently started dropping in and out too but it didn't start until about a week after others reported it. I switched to the 605.9 radios and it helped for a couple of days but it started back up again. I'm going to assume it's a verizon issue at this point.

Hi guys. I'm having a real hard time with my phone right now and I hope someone can help me.
First of all, my Note is still on ICS running the last stable build of CM9 (CM 9.1.0 to be exact) without any other kernel or radio modifications. I just performed a clean install of this the other day also. The problem I'm having is that the phone will literally be sitting next to me connected to my home wi-fi and it will fail to receive texts and phone calls. What I mean by that is, my girlfriend will be trying to text me but nothing will come through on my phone for up to an hour. Then at some random time, all the so-called pending SMS will finally display on my phone all with the same time-stamp. Similarly, if someone tries to call me, I will have no notification of this until way after the fact when the voicemail symbol appears (that's IF a message was left).
Now, to me, this seams to be happening at completely random times and I have not been able to pinpoint what's causing it. Before, I used to think it happened after a prolonged time of having the phone on silent and non-use. But just last night the problem happened again when this was not a factor.
A few other notes:
Only seems to happen at home where I am connected to wi-fi. And frankly, I don't travel enough to test my phone anywhere else. While at home my signal strength on AT&T fluctuated between 0-1 bar up to 3 bars. Kinda strange, I know.
Before switching to the CM 9.1.0 rom, I was using CM9-Kang h0tsauce "9" 20120817 *reborn* for quite some time. I experienced the problem with that rom as well but it didn't seem to happen as much.
Rebooting the phone seems to help. When I do this, it seems to push everything through and allows me to be able to receive new messages instantly. Obviously, though, this is not a good work-around since I have no idea when the problem will show up.
So.... anyone know what's going on here? Hardware/software/network problem? I've done some searching but couldn't really find this issue discussed anywhere else. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I have been having the same problems as you on a Blackstar X and Flapjaxxx's ICS build 12. I talked to AT&T a couple of times and they reconnected me to the network which has helped a little, but I still get missed texts and calls, but not as often. I have no idea how to fix the issue. Hopefully, somebody out there does.
Sounds like to me that you have a very bad signal. In case you didn't know, texts go through the phone signal and not wifi. The wifi connection is just a coincidence since you never leave home and are always connected to wifi. Going somewhere with a better signal would help clarify this.
There are apps on Google Play that restore your network when it goes down. Possibly they may help you.

Not that it makes much difference, but the older version will likely give you the same results as FJ's UCLF6 builds.....
You may want to try the newer version first ...g
Edit: the older builds allow the use of FJ's 3.0.2 kernels....the newer base will not.
Hey all,
Am I the only one having issues during phone calls? When I call someone, sometimes the call drops randomly and I hear a network fail sound. I can't reproduce it. Sometimes it happens, others don't. Does anyone experience the same or have any solution? I have tried both SIM slots and doesn't help in any way. I have 4g coverage so I don't believe it's a problem with my network provider (vodafone).
Thanks
PS: Why not change the thread title to include 9S model as well?

Is it confirmed? I just returned the smartphone to the shop and asked for a refund since I could not find anyone with the same issue. Now, I'm reluctant to ask for another equipment since it is very frustrating to have such a bug as calls dropping randomly.

Hello it´s append to to me also,, I´m from Portugal to.
I use this phone for work, and phone calls drop randomly
Same
Just glad I'm not the only one but yes this problem is very annoying
I really want to give xiaomi a chance but this is the most basic function of a phone and it's failing
Previously it also had an issue of losing internet connection but I think they fixed that with a patch so hopefully there will be one soon with this call dropping issue (also sometimes I cannot receive calls either…)
randomly happens.
I'm on 11.0.8.0 USA
I hope they fix it. I really like this phone.
I ended up returning the phone. It is really annoying and as you said it's the most basic function of a phone. I'll be waiting for a fix and/or another model. I don't believe they'll fix it before miui 12 since it's just around the corner and that update may bring other bugs so they must not be fixing any bugs of miui 11. Just my 2 cents, of course.
I enabled wifi calling and its now stable when I am on wifi.
I use tmobile.
Enter these codes into the Dialer to enable the options in Settings. (Settings < SIM Cards & mobile networks < Sim Card Settings < VoLTE Enabled/Make Calls using WLAN)
VoLTE *#*#86583#*#*
VoWIFI *#*#869434#*#*
Things should work after you enable the two options.
I use wifi calling as well as network calling guys, every lengthy call eventually gets dropped. Very annoying!
I love the phone and I am holding hope in resolving these issues by flashing a custom rom. I asked the question regarding the call dropping and wifi bug in the Evolution X thread, apparently all is working well without problems with that rom.

Is evolution x rom the only custom rom confirm to resolve the drop call issue? Any others?

I'm not sure. I've been keeping an eye out in the custom ROM threads for any mention of the two bugs. I haven't seen anything at all.
I asked the dev in the Evolution X thread and he confirmed all is working well regarding this. It seems that development is very active with that ROM, I really want to flash it but there are a few reports of people getting bootloop errors initially, and we still don't have the official TWRP.
I love Miui, after all you can freeze out or remove many of the pesky apps, it works well but it's just the call dropping and the wifi bugs that are plaguing many. This is a major issue that doesn't seen to be getting resolved. Pretty disappointing really.

I read that the dev is no longer going forward with the evolution rom. I really hope this is fix in xiaomis next update. For now wifi calling is the temp fix for me.

I read that the developer QuantumShqipe has received some donations now to continue the ongoing work of Evo x which is great news for the development.
Just a note on wifi calling with Miui, I still get call dropping with wifi calls, even though I can be right next to the router. I also notice that the wifi calling icon is on and off. I never stays constantly on when in good range of the router. The preference is even set to 'prefer wifi to network' in settings. Putting the phone in airplane mode helps that problem but it's crazy having to do all these work arounds. Like you, and everyone else I just wish the issue would get fixed ASAP. I have never known any phone to have it's most obvious function fail.
You know what, Xiaomi developers knew about this problem with wifi/call drops. Of course they did. But management decided to rush the product to market to generate more sales. I feel stupid for buying a brand new phone but not in my wildest imagination could I believe they would mess up the very basic fundamental functions of a smart-phone.

Totally agree Tangoviking. I really hope someone of some importance at Xiaomi is taking note here. It's a total disgrace. Not even a reassuring mention of a fix.

I'm holding off for official mui 12 which I'm hoping its soon.
I just updated to 11.0.9.0 yesterday. So far I haven't noticed any drops but then again I haven't really used the phone for more than 1-minute duration.
Any tentative date of mui 12 release?

I too will be holding off until Miui 12, that will be the decider. I haven't a clue when it's rolling out, I thought late June but we're already there. I'm not bothering with any updates until then unless it's specific to the bugs.
More or less same issue
i also need some help. Redmi Note 8, with MIUI Global 11.09.9 Stable. The call drops in the middle of the conversation, that is, I can still hear my calling partner, but they cannot hear me anymore. It happens at random, not always but mostly, also, it happens after 1 minute or 5 or 10 minutes, not logical. Anybody? Already tried everything I think....
Redmi Note 9S - call dropping issue
I have the same problem with call dropping irregularly. The phone function is totally unreliable.
I tried many MIUI's so far:
11.0.3 (EU-official)
11.0.4 (EU-official)
11.0.4 (EU-XTRV from the Greek forum)
11.0.8 (Global-official)
11.0.11 (Global-official)
The problem persists with all of them, which means that most probably it is a hardware issue with a batch of this model.
