I was on my way home from work and my son called. So I answered and was talking for about 2 mins, and right in the middle of our conversation I could hear my phone ring. I said hello Tyler are you still there then all of the sudden my mother in-law said hello. And my son was gone. It's like my phone randomly called someone. Plus my signal isn't very strong on the newest New leak. I also have had several dropped calls.

My phone has been acting weird and I'm still stock. Been getting a lot of 1x instead of 4g.

I have not tried the newest leak, but I flashed the one before that. I can tell you if you don't go through the ruu twice on that one, you can end up with a lot of bugs if you manage to even boot it. I have no idea if that is still necessary with the new leak, but it may help to flash it twice anyway.
Also, I have seen pretty good reviews regarding signal strength and the new radios..
I have not had those problems specifically with this leak but I HAVE had that calling issue if I don't hold the phone correctly, like if I hold it with my shoulder and try talking then the proximity sensor can enable the screen to come back on, then my ear presses a contact causing the phone to immediately dial.

I would not blame the leak I also have a screwy proximity sensor and the screen usually doesn't turn off causing many issues while on a call. I press the power button to turn the screen off before placing it up to ear to avoid having problems

I've flashed many roms and many leaks. I know roms and leaks have issues so I'm not blaming anything! I just haven't ever had this happen on a leak or ROM before. Just reporting it as it happens, that's all.

Haven't heard of anyone else having this problem. Sounds like you are indeed alone.
Maybe search the international gnote forum too, but I haven't red anyone experiencing this.
Sorry, good luck

The issue I've had is that my speaker seems to disable itself after I do a Hangout on Google+. Sounds only come though the earpiece afterwards until I power it off and on.
Call Samsung you might be able to get it fixed if you don't have a warranty

I've had my I717D (Telus version) for less than a week and from the first day I got it the external speaker would disable itself, then after a reboot it would work. It started happening more and more until today it doesn't work at all, I'm going back to get a replacement tomorrow.

Ive tried rebooting, factory reset, right now flashing the stock rom back and doing a counter reset. Dont think its going to help.
Apparently a few people with the international version have had this issue.
But att does give a 1 year warranty, so they should take care of it.

My original Rezound i had flashed several different roms to it back and forth and started developing and issue with the vibrator in the phone. It would become sooooo weak that I couldn't even feel it anymore. I thought I messed something up internally, so i flashed it back to stock, and warrantied it. New one is worlds better and has been for many months. I've left it completely stock the whole time, and suddenly the last few weeks i've noticed the same issue. The vibrate function is getting weaker and weaker. Am I the only person experiencing this problem?

Switching the rom had nothing to do with it, sounds like you just got another defective phone.
I figured it wasn't a rom issue, just crappy that i got the same issue again with another phone. Was hoping this was something that I wasn't experiencing alone.
Time to call and see if they'll send me another!

Has anyone experienced issues with the screen sensor not responding well while on a call?
Sometimes if you lock the screen while on a call and you try to unlock it the screen with shut off as soon as you touch it and will remain on that behavior until the call is ended, therefore not letting you unlock the phone or perform any other activities on the phone.
Anyone?

It's funny because this is the 2nd HTC phone that I can report with this bug. I had the Evo 4G LTE before this one and it suffered the same issue even after all official updates.
The only solution with that phone was to flash a custom ROM which was good, but up to now I'm still on the fence about rooting this one; stock on this phone is stable and bloatware is minimal, I haven't justified taking the plunge yet.

I'm with you there. I did root mine... but only for data restore purposes. It may sound crazy.. but I don't want SwiftKey to start over with learning my typing habits. Other than that, like you, this phone and my Nexus 4 are the only two phones that I have had no desire to install a custom ROM. Fingers crossed that there is a solution other than that.

Yes, happened with me quite a few times. Once a call is initiated (phone speaker on or off) and the screen goes black (due to proximity sensor), no amount of tinkering will bring it back until you press the power button which kills the call. It is damn annoying and am hoping there is a fix.
The phone is on 1.29 M7 TMobile ROM, rooted with S-OFF
I had that problem too on LG L7. Tried with various roms and nothing. But I fixed somehow with the app called "proximity actions". It lets you command your phone with hand suggestion via proximity sensor. I only installed it to check the hardware, wether the sensor works. I have no idea what happened, but it started to work again. The app somehow toggled the sensor and brought it back to life.

Not sure if all ROMs have the option but you can go in to the accessibility options and turn off power button ends call.

I've noticed this issue has significantly increased amongst other things like freezing since I unlocked my bootloader. :what:

Never once has this happened to me. Bone stock.
Guess that's another reason I don't trust "IMAROM CHEFS!" ROMs that are "cooked up" on some random internet user's computer.
Stock is fine these days, IMO. Outgrew the glitchy nature of kitchen ROMs and such.

Been using ROMs for years and I've hand,y ups and downs, I can't say I've had a horrible experience with any ROM I've used on any of my past phones. Now I do agree with you about the stability of stock ROMs these days and also the better specs of the phone. For instance I haven't rooted nor unlocked my phone because I personally feel that the delivered product is good and haven't felt the necessity to tinker with it. The issue described is with stock, not custom ROM.
With that said or you haven't had the scenario for it to happen or your just the lucky one....

Not yet, no.
my proximity sensor randomly stops working which causes this to happen. it works again after a reboot.
Yeah, I've had that issue a few times. Some times it'll randomly have my screen turn on while I'm on the phone and I'll face touch all the things.
Same here. It drives me crazy! All too often my face hits the speaker button and about blows my eardrum out!

hello
Thought it was just my face being a weirdo but yea it's happened to me a few times. usually a quick reboot fixes it. Though I suspect a background app is to blame when it does happen. Though it rarely does.

I have consistent problems on speakerphone with people saying they can't hear me. I had a bear motion slim case on it but I'm not clear if that is creating any issues. Is there a hidden microphone anywhere that the case may be covering? Or do I need a warranty replacement?
Sent from my SM-G900T using Tapatalk
It's weird, I've had certain people tell me this as well but others can hear me fine. Not sure what's going on, but I know that when I'm talking with someone who has trouble hearing me, if I put in my headphones it solves the problem. Maybe something to do with noise cancellation/echo reduction?
Do you have a case on or anything? I only have the issue on speakerphone.

I've been messing around with this more and it seems like the bottom mic on my device is really directional in the sense that it only seems to pick up audible sound when you talk right into it. It's definitely barely picking up anything when the phone is held normally as if for a call. The speakerphone mic seems to work fine.
EDIT: I finally took it back to the store and swapped it out for a new one. It was definitely a hardware issue as my new one sounds much better.
Same issue here and I'm not using a case.
On speakerphone only, I get complaints every single time that people can't hear me to the point where I have to switch back to handheld.
Noise reduction currently off but it's the same either way. Gonna pop into Tmobile on the way home and see what they say.
Anyone else get a warranty replacement?

For those who have a problem with this, I've been dealing with this issue since day 1. It seems to be a T-mobile problem and NOT a problem with the phone itself.
The software is set up as half-duplex and not full-duplex as it should.
That means that if the person on the other end of the line is talking or making noise and you start talking, they're not going to be able to hear you. I've tried this with my phone and a replacement phone. Same thing happened. That means that you will continuously cut in and out.
I'm currently talking to T-mobile and they have a ticket open with me to work with developers on the issue. I have no idea what happened but, as someone who uses speakerphone all the time, it's a MAJOR pain.
If anyone has more experience with this sort of issue, I'd love to hear it.
Hi Guys,
I'm having a problem along the same lines. I moved to Tmo a month or so ago when the S5 came out (ported from Sprint). The first couple of days I had great coverage but intermittently when I talked to someone, they'd tell me it sounded like I was in a tin can. At times it was hollow or echo-y. It kind of stopped, but then started up again. To me, everything sounds perfect. Now, randomly when I talk to someone, sometimes they can hear me without any problem, and sometimes they can barely understand me because of so much feedback coming through (even though I can hear them perfectly).
Tmo gave me a new sim card to use and said to wipe my cache to make sure everything was good. I did that and it worked great for about a day. Now, it's random again. I call land line and it sounds like I'm in a tin can and when they talk it's lots of feedback. I call friend on att and they have loads of feedback when they talk but perfectly fine on my end. I called someone on Tmo and had the HD appear on the call and it sounded like he was talking through a pillow.
It's so weird I can't figure out what's going on, but it's getting really annoying trying to talk to someone and end up calling them multiple times just to see if I can get a clear connection.
Bluetooth in my car seems to work perfectly for each end, though.
I'm on stock rom, rooted w/ philz recovery, and have not updated to the new ANES.
I don't use a case.
Wondering if that would help out.
Check this out might explain the mic issue
