Hi, please can someone help
the past few days my incoming calls, have been inaudible, i dont understand why this is, all volumes are up full, tried sound + and a few others, done a reset earlier and it is still the same, re rooted the phone using siyah and still the same, i have no problems using headphones, speakers work as they should
any ideas on how i could improve the in call sound i have searched everywhere, so much information but nothing has worked :crying:

I have read other posts on the forum but believe my problem is a bit different and quite weird (to me).
The symptoms are:
- sound through headphones is OK
- sound through the speaker when someone calls me on the phone is OK
- any other sound through the speaker is non-existent (ie ringtones, music, games)
I have tried rebooting, removing the battery, plugging/unplugging the headphones. I have tried the *#0*# code and pressed "speaker" but there's no sample sound heard (except through the headphones).
Does anyone else find it extremely odd that the speaker seems to work fine when someone is talking to me on the phone but nothing else? I'm guessing this means the problem is some kind of software or firmware issue. Correct?
Prior to the problem, I started with Android 2.3.3, rooted the phone, and flashed a stock ROM (KK2). I have upgraded to 2.3.6. Unfortunately I can't be sure the problem occured since 2.3.6 because I don't play music that much, and I play games without sound.
Should I (a) re-flash stock ROM, (b) factory reset, (c) call Samsung?
Grateful for any recommendations. (I'm not confident/competent with replacing the speaker myself)
regards.
Check sound settings first .
Factory reset.
Flash a stock rom .
Rooted so warranty void .
You will need to clear root with a stock rom flash and reset custom rom counter to zero with usb jig .

Receiving a call has a separate speaker, so your problem is with the back speaker which plays tones and other music, do a complete factory reset and check for sound if its still not playing, then it could be a hardware issue.

Thanks for the advice. I didn't realise there was a separate speaker.
I've performed a factory reset but no success.
I'll call Samsung today and arrange for the speaker to be replaced.
Thanks again
I've Had Success..
Hey guys..
I know this threads old, but I had success fixing an AU TELSTRA i9100T with the same Audio issues presented here. Runing GB 2.3.3 Totally Stock.. No root, nothing.
Every-time I increased the Speaker level to more that Half way, I'd hear a deep "CLICK" sound then no Audio any more through the Speaker..
When headphones are in, No problems at all..
Strange thing is, that once I turned it down below half way, and Blew air or puffed or even Talked Loudly into either of the 2 x Mics on the Top or Bottom of the phone, the sound would return OK.... but, again if I turned it up past Halfway ( sometime maybe one step over half way ) it would CLICK again and no Audio through the Speaker.
So, First I was thinking HW, then SW, tried Factory Reset.. no Help at all.. same issue..
Then, I flashed ROM to the latest Stock JB 4.1.2 XWLS8 Spanish ROM floating about the forums and This fixed it.. Perfect sound. No Hiccups.. :good:
Just wanted to share this..

Hi All,
I just newly use RAZR for 3 months. Everything is ok until few weeks ago my phone volume suddenly became very low.
During receiving phone call I can't hear anything, I have to activate phone speaker to get caller sound.
This issue not exist if I used headset.
I checked all sound setting and everything seems set normally.
Currently I used MUIU 2.9.29, from previously i used 2.7.10
I dunno if custom rom is causing this issue.
Please share if you have any resolution for this issue.
Regards,
When on the phone people cannot hear me. If it's outgoing or incoming they cannot hear me unless i put it on speaker, then they can hear me just normal. I have tried different ROMs. Tried resetting my phone. Tried changing some volume settings from my computer to my phone (can't recall what it i called).
anyone have any ideas??

I've had this problem on and off for a long time with this phone. I've not been able to determine if it's the phone or the various custom ROMs that I've tried. Currently I'm on CM10.1 which seems good, although I had an issue with cell reception last week that caused a person not to be able to hear me.

Same is on my HTX Evo 4g they cant hear on regular but on speaker it is fine. Mic works fine of course so videos and voice recorder are fine
Greetings All,
This is different from the regular low in-call volume complaints, my in-call volume is loud and clear. The problem is in the in-call notifications/alerts volume, for example when I receive SMS or a WhatsApp message or a call waiting, I do not hear anything at all, and if I'm in a very quiet place I might hear a very low sound of these notifications/alerts. when I hang up, I find the missed alerts in the notifications bar.
I tried everything. Checking the sound settings, revising the installed apps, replacing the SecPhone apk, changing the kernel, wiping and starting over, even trying a different ROM for my Note 3 N900. Nothing works, and I've been missing very important work waiting-calls because of that for over a month now.
Any ideas?

Anybody?
Anyone please?
After nearly 2 months, I found out - with trial and error - that my low call waiting beep problem was a ROM-Kernel combination issue, which is very weird and doesn't make any sense, but now I've changed them, and everything is fine again.
This post is for anybody who might face the same problem, hope it comes in handy.
I have very little sound on incoming calls. The sound that I hear is very feint and distorted. The phone is less than 1 week old.
I have looked on the web for a solution and have tried various suggestions but still I have very little distorted sound.
I have set up the phone and all apps are working OK. I do not really want to do a factory reset as that may change all my settings etc.
One suggestion was that there may be a SIM configuration app out there (?) which could influence the call in sound. I do not know if this is important, but the nanno-SIM is in slot 2 and slot 1 is empty.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem?
