Weird call issues - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok this is strange.
I can make calls but can't hear the dial tone or the other person, but they can hear me just fine.
The speaker is ok since I can hear the end-of-call beep.
It's the actual call that has problems. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?
I would appreciate any ideas (but flashing another ROM is not possible atm sorry )
EDIT: As randomly as it had occured, it just sorted itself out.

SMS Notification While On A Call

Hi guys,
i was wondering if someone can help me with a annoying issue i am having with my phone
Whenever i am on a phone call and someone sends me a sms/message, the ringtone i have assigned to messages/sms plays through the speaker (not loud speaker) and all i can hear is a loud message notification and not the actual person i am talking too.
Any ideas how to get rid of this annoying issue?

[Q] ViperDNA Sense5 and Skype Audio

I installed the ViperDNA Sense5 ROM, and it's great, a huge thanks to the developers... Almost everything runs fine, but I have a problem with Skype calls. If I make or receive a video call, the other party hears me fine, but I can't hear them at all, just no sound whatsoever from the loudspeaker. And the audio only calls just make a screeching sound from the earpiece.
A similar problem is reported on the M7WLV Port thread, and as a solution an alternative kernel by MicroMod777 is suggested. I tried that kernel as well, and it does solve the problem for the audio only calls (no screeching sound anymore, and I can here the other party fine), but the problem remains for the video calls, just no sound from the loudspeaker.
Anyone else experiencing similar issues with the ViperDNA Sense5? Or maybe somebody found a solution...
Will really appreciate if someone helps with this issue...

Hangouts Video Call Issue

This is a weird bug that has made my hangouts video calls unusable. If this has been addressed before I apologize.
When I make a video call on my G2 and the mic is set to speaker the person on the other end cant hear me. It is only until I set the mic option to headset that can the other caller hear me. This makes for my having to hear the other caller through the earpiece at a low volume. My phone works for calls through both speaker and earpiece so IDK what's up. I am currently on Slimrom If this belongs in that thread ill repost it there.
Thanks for any advice.
hi,
i am using a stock firmware, and i do not encounter this problem
so i tend to think it's related to your rom
did you try however to delete the cache and data for hangouts ? and basically reconfigure the app . Perhaps it will help

Mic being muted when changing from speaker on/ off

Hi guys,
Ever since being updated to Android 10 I have been experiencing a really annoying issue where my mic seems to get muted when I change the speaker setting from whatever the call was answered on.
For example if I answer a call the person won't be able to hear me anymore if I change from the handset to speaker, and won't be able to again until I call them back regardless of whether I change it back.. If I want to speak on speaker I have to call them and change it to speaker before they answer!
This is getting really annoying and I am getting really annoyed with having constant glitches with this phone, the fingerprint scanner taking this long to fix, the camera crashes, and now this!
Has anyone experience this issue and know how it can be fixed? Please let me know.
Thanks.

Question Calls not working properly on calls and whatsapp calls.

Hi there people.
I've got the following issue. If anyone has this issue or has fixed it let me know.
Calls seem to be interfering with my mic. Sometimes my voice doesn't go to the other end even though normal call or whatsapp call. They might hear 1 word then nothing from me for a few seconds then a word or two and it sometimes sounds like a clicking noise.
I've called my self too and I can't hear anything on my RM7 but whoever I call can hear the clicking noise and sometimes nothing from me.
Sometimes I can't hear the other person too. It cuts out.
Same with normal calls and whatsapp calls.
Continuing my testing, I can send voice notes without issue and receive them and play it via rhe earpiece without issue too. Even voice recording and video recording the microphone does a good job only in calls it bugs out.
Continuing my testing
Works fine with headphones connected. But mic and earpiece work fine when used by voice notes and video ect
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not but I have the same issue. It started around last week.
I cleaned my speakers and mic thinking I got dirt build up. But it's still the same.
It seems like a software issue. Looking at the patch notes in latest OS update (NX679J_UNcommon_V3.16) for me, they have listed "Repair: possible issues with calls in some scenarios". I don't know when they released the update and when I applied it to my phone but that could be the reason for this issue too.
After reading your post I tried regular calls with headphones, speakers and video call with Google meet. They all work fine.
For call on speaker, as soon as you turn the speaker off it starts acting up again.
Hopefully they will fix this issue soon.
From my testing it seems like its an app or something interfeering with the calls. I started the phone up in safe mode (no 3rd party apps only stock ones) and the issue was gone, so the issue is a app related issue, thinking its a virus I just reset the phone to factory and all is good now. I didnt find what was causing it.
Thanks for an update.
I will play around a bit and if it doesn't work out then will do the same.
