[Q] S2 sound RFI when calling - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I recently got an galaxy S2 lte, at the beging it was everything ok , and i was really enjoying the cellular vs the price i've paid for it
.
But now i've notice some strange thing, when im calling or receiving a call, after some minutes(not always the same can be 2 min or 15 min) i will ear a RFI sound coming from the speaker more to the top left side of the cellular. Sound its similar to when your phone it's about to ring and your computer speakers start interfering.
When the interfering starts it won't stop until i disconnect the call.
Anyone have know of a similar bug?
Thanks in Advance,
Setro

[Q] SGS1 annoyances in the SGS2?

I'm curious if anyone has had any issues with using bluetooth calling in a car. With my SGS1 (Verizon US Fascinate), when I hang up a call via bluetooth in my car, bluetooth on the phone will crash and disconnect from the car. The phone will freeze for a few minutes, then I have to disable and re-enable bluetooth for it to re-connect to the car. I've talked to a few others who have had the same issue with my same phone, but I guess not many people use this feature or have this bug? I would like to know if anyone with an SGS 2 uses bluetooth calling via car and if they have any issues.
I'm also curious about the minor things Samsung does in their ROMs which never made sense to me. The primary one is the "charge complete" notification. I charge my phone at night while I sleep and in the middle of the night (every night), I get a notification beep telling me the phone is charged. It also turns on the VERY bright AMOLED display which lights up the entire room. Also, my girlfriend's Samsung phone will die in the middle of the night if it's not charged and will blast the shutdown animation and sound VERY loud.
Samsung does little things that are a bit irritating at times and I'm curious if they've improved with their new phone.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help answer these questions.

Bad sound in a call

Hy
I just received my brand new SGS2 (White) and I noticed a problem with the in call sound. I tried calling my phone with different phones so it's not one phone that's acting up but my phone that has a bad speaker.
The problem I'm experiencing is a scratching sound when someone is talking with a high or low pitched voice. It sounds like a busted speaker.
I'm writing because I'd like to know if the speaker is really so bad on this phone or if it's something wrong with it. My wife can't hear a thing but I's really bothering me.
Note: I'm not talking about external speaker. I'm talking about the headset or whatever you call it. The one that you use in a normal call. I forgot to mention that the scratching sound goes away only if I set my volume below 40%.

[Q] Strange sounds during phone calls

For a while now I have been getting strange sounds, much like the water drop sound when you tap on the lock screen, during phone calls at random times. Some calls no sound, other calls will go off several times in a row then nothing for a minute or so then again etc.
I have the proximity sensor on so should not be hitting anything, and it also does it whilst sitting on the car dash board on hands free!
Been googling for the last few days and can not find a similar complaint.
Any one got any ideas?

[Q] Top speaker quality in viber

Hi,
I was using my old Galaxy s3 to call & txt fiance using viber in states, now that I have sold it to mazuma mobile I have used viber to call her for the first time on my z2 & I could barely hear her at all on the top speaker & had to put phone on speaker phone just to hear her , normal call quality is pretty good on mobile calls, volume was up full. She could barely hear me as well, I turned off noise cancellation in call settings & she could hear me a bit better but said it was still quiet.
Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this?
Cheers.
Have you tried moving the phone around on your ear? Sounds silly, but because of the placement of the speakers, its not as natural as other phones i've used imo (or maybe its how tall the phone is). I found the same issue at first, then i moved the phone around on my ear until the speaker and my ear lined up right and the sound was normal.
Yeah mate, moving the phone around my ear was first thing I tried, I don't have issues with normal calls but speaking to her on viber it's almost like the speaker volume is set really low & I could barely hear her at all, since I call her in the early hours I would rather not have to put the call on speaker phone.

Ah okay. I did a quick google search and it looks like its hit or miss for some devices, so it might be on their end. This thread has a Viber rep responding in it to the same problem, or at least a couple months ago he was(no real solution, other than reporting it).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2307492
Also there's an app suggestion in there that a member says helped, and another one would be master volume (i think thats the name). I don't really use Viber, so i'm not much help other than that.
Cheers again for the reply mate, have checked that thread out & also posted in it hoping they will still be checking it, checked the apps mentioned in play store & most haven't been updated since 2011, I do think the issue is like you say more on Viber's end as the volume was fine on my now sold Galaxy S3.
Might have to check out Line or similar apps & get her to do the same as Viber is almost unusable due to this, connection quality was excellent all through the call so I think Viber just need to update or optimise it for the Z2.
Same problem man, here is a fix that worked for me, note 3 international version:

LG V30+ Speakerphone and volume issues

Hi! Long time reader, fist time caller here So I have a Sprint LG V30+ and have noticed a few issues over the last month and was wondering if it's just me.
Issue 1: Sometimes when picking up a call with speakerphone it'll work then suddenly switch to handheld audio. I end up having to toggle the speakerphone off and on again to fix it. It consistently happens if I'm on a call and someone else tries calling me.
Issue 2: Volume control sometimes thinks it's controlling Bluetooth audio even when Bluetooth is not enabled. Again a quick toggle of Bluetooth usually resolves this but it's still a pain.
Anyone seeing any of the above issues with their phone and have any suggestions on how to resolve them?
Hey, Sprint customer here too.. I have very less earpiece volume even though its set to max. And also I am not happy with the call audio. My LG v20 gives me far better call audio than this. I dont know if this is the problem with the network or software.
My ear piece volume is loud for me where I turn it down a notch or two and I have hearing problems. This phone is louder in the ear piece than my iPhone 7 plus. The speaker is not as loud. I have the t mobile model.
Sprint V30+ as well. I have very low earpiece volume while on a call but none of the other issues.
Low call volume.
Hey guys there is a simple fix for the low in call volume. Use your drop down menu and you should see something that is called calling plus. Toggle it and BAM volume fixed. It works with WiFi and LTE. Hope this helps guys.
