Hi All,
Ive had my SG3 about 3 weeks now and have had an issue twice, that im not sure is my fault or not if im pressing something,
Basically I make a phone call and people cannot hear me, I havent thought until now to check the settings when it happens, but I know its not on mute.
Its happened twice out of about 300-400 calls, 1st time I had to reboot the phone for it to fix as I tested a call after and it still failed, the 2nd time which was last night as soon as I hung up and made another call it worked.
Just wanted to see if anyone had seen this?
happened to me too. I never had to reboot the phone just hang up and call again. after I updated to jellybean the problem didn't occur so often.
Thread moved to proper forum.

I've had this occur three times when using my phone if i lock my phone and someone calls me or texts etc notice... my phone locks and will not respond to touch/unluck phone is not froze as the time changes. But there is no way aside from rebooting to fix this. anyone experience similar? is this a 1.5 issue or just a eris issue?
i've run into this quite a bit too and usually end up having to reboot with send+end+vol_up no idea as to what is causing it tho
I have read around its from the OTA Update and you must *288 on the phone to reprogram it. its rumored to solve it also a hard reset is rumored. Im trying the *288 and will report back.
If worse comes to worses, just run the RUU posted in the Desire Dev forum. It'll do a full reinstall of the phone's software and wipe your data, but it might fix your problems.
Yup I feel I may be doing that, seen that posted as well and commented the same. I just cant wait for 2.0/2.1, Root id like but its not itching me as much as the 2.0/2.1 i want.
I have been having the same problems that it sounds like many are having. My screen freezes when I have an incoming call causing me to miss the call. Very annoying. I basically have to have the phone at stock settings for it to work correctly. Also when I have a reminder from my calendar go off it freezes so I cant slide it down to turn it off immediately. It takes about 15-30 seconds for the slider to work in both cases.
I've had this issue since the update. I've run the ruu and did a factory reset. Nothing has helped. After several hours on the phone with tech support- the new Eris is in the mail.
so far since ive done *288 to reprogram the phone i have not had the lockup issue occur.
Don't you mean *228, or is that a new one?
yes *228 sorry
I tried *228 numerous times. The new phone just froze on me this morning at the lockscreen. I figured it had to be software related.
i had the same problem it happen to me 3 time had to restart my phone i think there is a bug in the software it happen after update
Hello everyone,
To be honest, it's been some time since I've been here, back when I knew how everything on this forum worked...
I kinda forgot, so I'm just posting this HELPME!? thread
This is my problem:
About 1.5 years ago I downloaded a ROM, and put it on my phone, and it was working just fine. However, 3 weeks ago it became really annoying, i'll explain what my problem was:
My phone would randomly freeze when i was doing things, these things could vary from "sending a text message" to "opening my 4th opera tab".
After that it wouldn't respond unless I reset it. However, when starting up again after resetting it would do a few possible things.
1. It's freeze at the first startup screen.
2. It's keep switching between unlock and "pin-screen", and when it was working again, it'd freeze.
3. It'd start up, and after about 5 seconds buzz like 5 times, then freeze.
When i left it on frozen the battery and phone would turn very hot as well =(
So, I tried a hard reset, but that didn't work.
After that i went to the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591784
I followed the instructions, installed the right Radio (2.12.50), and installed the ROM ( Energy.Leo.21916.Sense2.5.NLD.Cookie.2.0.Jul.07.7z ).
I remembered how to intall these things, so I think i've done that right.
So, after that it seemed to be working fine, and I was really proud and happy.
Now my phone has frozen again, and starting up was an issue again...
Does anyone know what my problem is? And what would be even better, what i can do to solve it?
Please let me know <3
Adios <3
Little Update:
So, I've been carrying my HTC HD2 around with me again, and then it started again...
It froze when I tried to send a text, and after that would freeze or vibrate (a few times) during the start-up...
It's really anoying =( If I'd have to estimate my phone's uptime a day...
It used to be 24h a day, now it's more like... 4 hours a day, with 2/3 hours of trying to get it working :Z
That could be hardware related. Possibly processor overheating. I would download the latest stock rom and fash it to see if it sorts the problem. If not it will need to be sent of to HTC to be replaced.
Right guys, I have been on the Original Development section asking similar questions and had good suggestions, but here is the problem in a lot more detail as I don't want to spam the section with the same problem and get literally no reply as people are busier with other things on there. Basically the phone has it's two speakers, the earpiece at the front and the speaker at the back both of which are working and functional. However the problem lies in the phone calls. I bought the phone on stock firmware, latest UK generic update it was and everything was fine. I decided to root the phone and flash PA 2.13.1. As soon as I did this I came across a few issues, one being NFC not working and the current and seemingly unfixable issue that I have with the phone calls where, as I receive a call and answer it the microphone doesn't work, I can't hear anyone and they can't hear me. Both on loud speaker and through the earpiece. It's as if they disable when a call comes through. But when I hang up or they hang up I can hear the end call tone, the beep coming through the earpiece. So I know that it works. The same goes for loud speaker, however I already knew that it still worked as I can play music through it cleanly. It's in perfect working order.
I've tried several solutions, including flashing new modems, RIL etc. Flashing 3 part software. I have yet to try flashing the 3 part software with a .PIT file, like mx.pit as I simply can't find that file (if someone would be as kind to link me it) anywhere. I'm currently back on stock XXALE8 UK firmware. The problem is still there. I STILL can't make a phone call without this annoying thing happening, and as I said, the problem wasn't there before I flashed PA. It's so f****** annoying as I followed the instructions perfectly, I mean, I've been using android since 2009 and rooting and flashing is nothing new to me. I've never had an issue as severe as this one.
Anyways, thanks in advance for any suggestions you guys can throw at me, I know you'll all agree when I say the GS3 kicks ass and you'll know my pain when I tell you it's being a broken piece of crap haha!
EDIT: Right, I have made another definite discovery with this problem! It's to do with my signal. When I answer a call or make a call, it appears to connect to the caller for roughly about 0.01 seconds as it says it's connected, but then it hangs silent for a while, about 13-15 seconds before disconnecting saying there is no service in the area. Give it another five seconds and the signal reconnects. It is the exact same effect you would have if you were on the phone on the train and went through a tunnel, it would say you were connected when you aren't. Does this make sense, anyone know what the cause of this could be?
Hello,
I've been running CM7 for a while now on my phone. About three months ago I've been to Thiland, in which I bought a local sim card. Now, I don't know if it has anything to do with it, but since then, the phone became quite unstable untill it finally crashed completely. It loaded a black screen and then popped an endless string of error messages. I loaded an old backup I had, but since then it never really returned to normal. Since then it crashed once more and made me restore it again. Now it reboots for no reason, shuts down and when someone calls, it will usually sound the ringtone for 3 seconds and then silence, if it will ring at all.
I went to a phoneshop and they told me the CM7 is too heavy for my phone. I thought about flashing NEATROM LPI, but frankly, I don't have much of an idea how to do it, and more important, if they're right and should I do it.
Please tell me what should I do.
Thanks in advance!

I recommend you to install one of the newest firmware and then observe if the problem still exists. Neatrom is a good idea, you can find it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24156315
I suppose your phone is already rooted and has custom CWM recovery so to install new rom you need to go to CWM then make full wipe (data, cache and dalvik cache) and install the rom from zip file. Regards

Sorry for the late respond, I only got to it today.
Anyway, thanks! it works just fine now. But now the ringtone starts quietly and then rises. Is there a way to abort this option? As in, to make it loud from the beging of the ringtone?
Hello,
My problem is very weird and i couldnt find any solution for it yet. Some time ago when someone was calling me i couldn't hear the voice and the caller couldnt hear mine, when i turned speaker on it was all fine. I tried to work it out by installing and uninstalling certain things in the phone and'ive come to the stage where if i try to call someone or someone calls me my phone freeze (nothing can be done) and then restart itself.
My current ROM is latest nigthly CM 12.1.
What could possibly cause this? I wiped everything possible like 3 times already, made factory resets, installed rom again and again, nothing helped..
EDIT: Ive tried installing different ROMS, CM11, CM12.1, Stock Rom, still same issue.
Loading the backup (5gb) of the phone before flashing it and doing all the stuff didn't help...
I had a similar issue on my old S4. Turned out to be one too many "drops" by my baby, cracked the circuit board behind the glass. This caused issues with calls not going through, cant't hear people, it disconnects by itself, sporadic reboots, some force closes, and eventually me trading it in for the S5..lol That was my 2nd replaced board in that S4 in as many months. Needless to say, my daughter does not play with daddy's new phone any longer..lol That was my experience, hope it helps. Good Luck!
Thanks for the answer, but unfortunatly i treat my phone pretty good and it would be a big coincidence if something mechanicly broke inside it, as i said it happened the same day as i uninstalled Hangouts and something else with Root App Deleter...
