did u already ask it on CM 10.1 topic? ask there if someone had this issue and how to fix it.
if not, try changing Rom or flashing it again...if it continues happening after doing this, maybe it is a hardware issue(what i dont think it is)

Well its ****ed
Ok i flashed it back to samsung origonal and still the same problems looks like its time to get a new phone

that's unfortunate
try sending to technic assistance

lighting rom, but i believe this issue was said to have started before, however i could be wrong!
just grabbed my next door neighbour and did 2 way test, i walked around the block on his 7 year phone and he sounded muffled on mine - went back to my phone and he was having trouble making me out but sound clear to me - bollocks!
guess i better flash stock back again.

Multiple threads claim this happens. Seems to just be a defect with no solution. Search around.

This is exactly what happens to me!!!
I suddenly start sounding muffled...
when my wife goes out of town...
and I go on a drinking rampage.
But then she comes back, and everything is back to normal.
Sorry OP, for makign a joke here. Yeah like others said, try factory reset and then restore factory firmware.
Some ppl claim that this happens when u r using a case cover blocking the mic for noise reduction. Try using it without and see if this solves the problem!!
Hope this helps!!

With the phone itself. It seems to be a certain location your mouth is to the mic just causes muffled sound. And the noise cancellation seems to be part of the issue, doesn't work correctly. So turning it off sometimes helps.
well i called O2, and they are swapping me a brand new one tomorrow, as i have had one month!, ordered on 25th May and called yesterday being 25th June.
they are bring me one to my house - that is service!
i did try flashing stock rom, but no difference, tested my mates and his sounds fine, pretty sure there is an issue. oh well a new one will do!

Crackling sounds from call speakers

Got a situation here , after a year or so my X10's earspeakers are crackling, making it almost impossible to hear what people are saying.
Just wondering whether anyone else here has experienced this issue, or already fixed it. If not then maybe I'll send it in for repairs.
Thanks all.

I haven't a X10 anymore but this sounds very familiar. I had it also at the end. We have a company here in Holland that will buy your old phone. But they have a few rules for get the most off the money ( I got for example still 80euros for a 2 years old phone, the maximal price that the want to give). So when my phone was back to stock a friend call me. He ask if I had already a new phone because the crackling sound was gone. I don't really know If this story helps you, because I haven't take the time to test it ( I want back then the Arc S so quick as possible). I had a feeling the cause was the ROM. The latest three month I have the same ROM. And the latest two month I had that issue. So you can try to make a backup and flash a stock ROM and try If its gone.
Good luck
Im using wolf's ROM, will try another if I have to... thanks!

Sounds like a defective speaker or bad sound settings.
Also most people would have got a full refund after 2nd device having fault. Getting a 3rd and 4th device from same retailer is ridiculous.

I phoned to my mom, then to my girlfriend again, and it seems the defect is ok again, maybe some really bad signal from my girlfriends house or something?

[Q] HTC One Call Quality Issues

Hello everyone!
I have an HTC One on the AT&T network and just recently it starting acting up.
I love the phone to death, but it is creating an extremely awful hissing/loud static sound when calling someone.
It only happens on the other persons end. I can hear them just fine, but on their end they can't hear me AT ALL.
Very wierd thing is that this only occurs when making calls via on-ear. When making calls through speaker phone it's perfectly fine!
Anyone have any ideas?? This is a very wierd situation, and I can't seem to find anyone else who has this problem!
Thanks in advance!

I am on the stock rom.
Sorry for not clarifying that!
if i were you i would either trade it in for a new one or s-off and try a custom rom and see if it persists. if it does return back to stock and return it for a new one

Still awaiting HTC Response...
Tried resetting the phone to no avail
It's wierd also becasue a video i took a wekk ago has flawless audio and the one i took last night is AWFUL. I can't figure out for the life of me what could have happened!
Will keep you posted when i flash a ROM most likely tomorrow if HTC can't do anything for me!

Hi, curious if you tried another ROM and if it helped the sound?
just a quick tip just incase type~~
do you have anything covering the ambient sound hole on the back side under the power button?
or even your hand when you are talking on the phone?
I know mine used to sound messed up on the other end when holding the phone with my shoulders because it was covering that ambience sound hold.
just a thought

That's a good point. I hadn't thought of that during shoulder use. But personally, that's not a factor with my issue.

I had the same problem and it freaked the hell out of me. Someone in XDA suggested it might be because of incorrect gain levels and to fix it you can try making a loud noise near the microphone. To my surprise it did work and now its perfectly fine. I called a friend and shouted as much as i could and then blew as hard as possible into the bottom mic hole. Not sure what fixed it but its worth a shot.

[Q]Intermittent loud scratch noise during calls after Cyanogenmod 10 + Generic IMEI

Hello everyone, I hope you guys can shed some light on my problem, I would really appreciate it. I searched the forum and found a workaround for the IMEI problem that did not work for me. And I found nothing regarding the loud noise during calls. So I decided to post to get some help.
Problem 1
I have a Samsung Galaxy S GT-I9000B from Brazil unlocked from the store. Three days ago I decided to update my system (2.2) to the CM10.0.0 (4.1.2). After much sweat and hassle I discovered how do it properly with the right files. So, I flashed 2.3.3 and then CM10 and it seemed to work properly until I found out my IMEI had been corrupted. I tried the solution I found but it didn't work because on step #5 I don't find the file named ".nv_data", just "nv_data.bin.md5". I tried copying just the other but in the end it doesn't change my IMEI back. I still have a generic IMEI but it is not affecting the signal of my phone, I can still make and receive calls, but I would like to get it properly working. When I flash android 2.2 it restores my IMEI.
Problem 2
My other problem is that I keep getting these really loud and intermittent scratch noises during calls after flashing CM10. Right now I am using a dutch SIM for I live in the netherlands. Maybe that is important to mention. But I had been using android 2.2 here all along with no problems. After CM10 I get these sudden short bursts of noise during my calls. The other person can barely hear it but I hear it loudly. It's really annoying. I have no idea what is causing it or how I can fix it.
Can you guys help me out with this one?!
Thank you,
Henry
Why don't you try another rom and see if the issue persists?

Do you mean another version of the CM10? Is there antoher version of it? On android 2.2 and 2.3.3 it was working flawlessly. I don't know what happened to the calls with this noise.
On the other hand, I know the IMEI problem is because of the ROM for sure. Just don't know how to fix it.

I'm sure there is more than one, yes. Why don't you post this in the galaxy forums where you'll grab the attention of users with the same phone?

I tried searching for it and surprisingly did not find. Found s4, s3, s2, ace and so on, but not galaxy s. I thought it was quite tricky finding the right place, maybe I was looking in the wrong one?
