Call answer issue - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Xperia Z2 D6503

Sorry for the empty post... So, first, I have the .402 firmware, locked bootloader, rooted with some xposed modules. Everything work fine, exept one annoying calling issue... When I'm answering a call, I feel a strong, short vibration and the other party is complaining about a strange loud noise right after I answered. Anybody have this issue? I'm going nuts searching all over for similar problem, but I can't find anything...

Hmm i havnt had this issue
Ive found you need to let a device settle for a bit if its running 4.4.2
Reflash your firmware via flashtool then power upp and leave it to settle for 30-60 mins
Backup your data/internal and restore, rom should run a lot better
Not sure what causes this unsettlement in 4.4.2

Happens on my devices also.
Some Android phones have the feature to vibrate on answer/hangup, it is typically a setting you can turn on/off.
I am not sure if it is turned on by Sony and it just simply fails to work half the time. So far I have not found the setting exposed anywhere in the stock Sony ROM's.

Thank you for the answers. I've read on other places that this is a feature, but in the newest androids can't turn off. I will try to reflash via flashtool, but first I think, I need to do some testing with my xposed modules. Do you think that some xposed module causing this? I not have any xposed module related to calling/vibrating. Really, I don't care about that the device vibrates right when I'm answering, but that strange voice that hears the other party...I don't think thats a "feature"

Gravity Box has that feature...

I have Gravity Box installed, and in that option nothing is selected. So in that case, I mean the vibrating is disabled in every scenario... Anyway, I'm starting to change some settings in Gravity Box. I forgot to mention, that in firmware .55(without xposed framework), I didn't notice this vibrate issue.

I think i have same issue like u .once noticed by my friend he heard vibrating*
In that time i thought it is normal because i installed call vibrating*but after see ur post i need to make a test now
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Free mobile app

paullu, until now, I think I'm the only one with this issue Can I ask you, what kind of call vibrating soft or mod do you installed? On the other part, I made some tests with Gravity Box. I checked one option, restarted the phone, than unchecked that optio and again restarted the phone. Receive some calls and didn't notice the problem... But to be sure, I need a couple of more received calls.

Ok...now I'm getting very frustrated. I've checked in Gravity Box to make sure non of the options in "call vibrations" are selected. Also installed an xposed module called "android phone vibrator" and deselect all the option. Nothing works... The strange thing is, that this issue sometimes appearing, sometimes not. In the last 2 calls that I have answered, the other party is complained about that he is "hearing" my vibration... I have found some peoples on other places, who has facing similar problems, but non of them was answered. Really, I must have to reflash the firmware, or better going back to .55, where I don't facing problems?

Dear l3opard,
i was reading this discusion and i thought my case is similar to yours
let me tell you my story perhaps it will answer your questions.
i recently bought the Xperia Z2 and i faced 2 main issues:
A- During calls, the other party cannot hear me well (microphone problem) ( even the .314 update did not solve it )
B- When answering calls the other party hears a vibration ( your case)
talking about problem B let me tell you when it happens and when it doesn t. if you answered while the phone is vibrating the vibration will continue and the caller will hear it, but if you answer between two vibrations the caller wont hear anything.
I assure you it is not your fault, it is sony's fault, i had couples of years ago Xperia P it had the SAME PROBLEM and when i bought the Z2 i assumed that SONY would have solved it. But i was surprised that the problem is always the same
in my opinion these small issues are reasons for loosing potential customers ( i am one of them) because i directly returned the phone ( i guess ill be getting the M8)
Hope i helped u

Funny that I came across this because earlier my wife called me and said it sounded real windy when I answered... But I was in complete silence... Very interested in this outcome.

I'm pretty sure this is caused by vibration while ringing. Then when you answer the phone at a particular time, it vibrates from the ring tone just as the call connects. I've heard it too, but only on incoming calls. Outgoing calls I've never heard it nor has anyone ever commented about it.

Thank you all for the feedback
Apparently the only solution to avoid this issue is to try to answer the phone between two vibrations... Well, kind of funny. By the way, I done fresh .314 firmware flash but nothings change. Fortunately, at me, the microphone is working fine.
Thank you again for the help and please let me know if any solution will be available for this.

[HELP!!] com.android.phone stopped working

Hello guys,
I am on LFB and am getting this problem when a call arrives from some specific numbers:
Phone starts ringing, screen doesn't show who's calling. After a while screen goes blank while ringing continues, and then stops. A popup shows "com.android.phone has stopped working".
The phone disconnects itself from the network and then reconnects back.

Weird: it only happens with some numbers. Other numbers work perfectly fine.
Weirder: I did a factory reset, and restored only user apps with titanium. Initially it worked okay (even with the specific number that was causing the problem earlier). Then after I woke up today morning I saw that the problem had returned!!!!!
I had turned off the automatic backup and restore options.
Need your urgent help please!! Phone is unusable as a phone with this problem when I get certain calls.

After the second OTA update i had the same problem. My solution was deleting the whole phonebook (take a backup of ur phonebook via Kies before deleting it) and restoring it via Kies and i am using my phone for 1 day, seems it's solved. At least for me

If its the phonebook, then you can just either create a vcf file or back up to Google first then remove account, I had this issue myself. Had a few more problems right after it too and I ended up sending the phone back for a new one.
You should start by doing a full wipe and starting afresh. Chances are this issue might pop up its head somewhere else.
Either that or try the phone book thing and if that works and your happy then great.

After restorig the phone book, I am using my phone for a 1 day and seems that error was only related to phone book. Also used lots of apps and functions (like gps, bluetooth,wifi,data,etc..) and didn't have the "com.android.phone" error or may be i missed something. What problems u got and that leads u getting a new one?
Please refer to - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1756752 .. This solved my problem. Btw.. Are you using facebook contact sync app ( not the original facebook application ).
Let us know if this solved the issue.
No amount of factory resets would solve the issue. So I came to the conclusion that something was wrong with the phone.apk in the firmware itself.
On a hunch, I flashed Criskelo's Disable-Increasing-Ring mod.
WORKS PERFECT NOW!!

[PROB] Call distortion

Description : Loud distortion on calls. You even notice it on the ring when doing outgoing calls.
I have it on vikingXrom. Even when doing a fresh install, full wipe... I make a call and it's there.
But people do also have it on RonenRom and I had it sometimes on Wanams.
Only some people have it.
What I already tried : flashing modem again, flashing other kernel... Distortion stayed. Who is also noticing this? And on which Rom?
For people having it, please respond with what ROM on what network and make a test with another sim from a friend on another(/same) carier.
----------------------
update 20121010:
For people having this problem. It seems a combination of some Roms with some Network carriers.
Problems :
Telenet(Belgium) / VIKINGxROM
Telenet(Belgium) / RonenRom
No Problem :
Telenet(Belgium) / Wanam
Telenet(Belgium) / checkRom
Proximus / VIKINGxROM
So note that when I put in another SIM from another carrier in vikings I have no problem.
Also, please give vikingxrom a try. It is the only JB rom I have tested that is real snappy and always fluent and fast!
Vikgin gave an update 7.3 with some changes in CSC, however without result for me.
------------
update 20121011:
Yesterday I tried with another SIM of a friend but also with the same carrier (Telenet)... Result : NO DISTORTION...
Ok, that was new. So what now? Was my SIM defective?
I went to the store to get another SIM. That was no problem.
Result. Still distortion. Very strange.
Now, are there any options I can set for my number???
Could this all be a network carrier problem? Special network settings the carrier is using that colides with settings in the roms?
Do you have any possibility to try another network carrier with your actual phone/rom? E.G. a prepaid card or trying national romaing?

I am using the same rom but it is all good on my side. I think maybe it can be related with your operator or maybe fast dormancy stuff. Siyah kernel has fast dormancy switch on off, maybe you should try that

I find this page while I was searching maybe it could help
"Just a tip for those people who are experiencing bad quality. I recently ordered two Verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 phones (both had update stickers on their box which I'm guessing the software on the phone has been updated recently) both with the stock ROM. Specifically, my family and friends would complain about the call quality. They had a hard time hearing me. My voice would sound muffled and faint. There were also complaints about static. This would happen whether I was on the handset, headset, or speakerphone.
I tried a few things to fix the issue. I called Verizon. They tried refreshing the VLR on their end. I have no idea what that does but it didn't help me. I then looked on the Internet for any ideas. I tried disabling voice privacy (Phone > Call Settings > uncheck Voice Privacy) which seemed to help a little. I also tried disabling noise reduction when in handset mode (Phone > Call Settings > Additional Settings > uncheck noise reduction). That had no effect.
I then read on a web page that a factory reset was supposed to help. So I also did a factory reset (Menu > Settings > Back up and reset > Factory data reset). That did not work either.
However, I then wondered if the person who suggested a factory reset might have also implicitly expected me to clear the cache partition, too. I booted into recovery mode by simultaneously pressing on the up volume key, the home button, and the power button. In recovery mode, I then performed the following:
select "wipe cache partition"
select "wipe data/factory reset"
select "reboot system now"
After I did this, I believe the call quality improved immensely (at least that's what my friends and family are telling me). I wonder if I even had to do the factory reset - maybe all I needed to do was to clear the cache partition.
Hope this helps others who were in a panic because the call quality problem is a dealbreaker for me. If people can't hear me talking, then I would have returned my S3s. And I would have hated to do that since this phone is awesome - infinitely better than my craptastic Samsung Moment... Some people may already know this solution, but I certainly didn't and I'm certainly not an Android expert. "
Thanks but since I already did a lot of full wipes and reinstalls, it did not help...
I also switched to another SIM. The same problem .
edit: I switched to another SIM but the same carrier. When I switched to another SIM with another Carrier the distortion was gone!!!! (explained in later posts)

Have you tried playing around with the call quality settings. Go to dialer and then go to call settings > additional settings , and try enabling/disabling noise suppression and see if there is a difference. By default, it is enabled.
yes I did, didn't help either...
did a fresh install of InsertCoin, do not have distortion...
Is the distortion also there when you call using wifi?

I noticed something though, there has to be in call eq settings in call settings. But there is not after I flash this rom
I think it would be a messy but helpfull thing that a dev try's to comapre two roms (viking and one that doesn't have the issue).
There MUST be any difference. We all know the vikingrom is stripped down heavily, perhaps there has been removed a system app which now causes the issue?!
Hi perhapps you could try to push and replace those apk in V7.zip
http://dl.free.fr/f4kjkchfb
you will loose call recording mod but i have some probleme too i did that and all its ok now .
perhaps its work for you too :fingers-crossed:
Aaarrggh, put them in the 7.2 update, installed, wiped cache/dalvik...
Retried... Again distortion
Getting tired of this....

Nah I don't cut out stuff which I don't know function off, but I never say never. Plus since it doesnt happen to all users I'm very confused :cyclops:
Still researching about the problem...
v6 and v7 is pretty identical so its hard for me to solve since I didn't really change much other than rebasing to XXDLIB.

Yes, you're right. It can't be a general app issue, because then every user should have the issue.
In any case it must be related to the phone itself (different hw release then the other users?) or the carrier network settings. But as huub said, he already tried changing the sim to a different carrier ...
Going to try another SIM with an other telephone company later!
However keep in mind, a clean install of other ROM's doesn't give me the issue neither.
App related : no, since I didn't install anything
Phone related HW : no, I should have it always no matter what ROM
Rom related: seems like it, but it must be "a combination" of things, since most people don't have the issue
For the moment I am back on ICS and I must say it still has the best battery life
- But I miss the NOTE2 gallery the most -
Ok... I tried with another SIM on the Proximus network in Belgium and guess what...
It did NOT distort!
So on this ROM I have distortion with Telenet network and not with Proximus network.
But what now?

Ha, strike :highfive:
Ok, i think now we (or schoolsux) need to have a look at the csc's used in the rom? As far as i know, this is the carrier related stuff, but i'm not realy sure about this.
We could need an expert now.
So I found another ROM where I have the problem :
[ROM][XXDLIB][30.09] HyperLight v0.8 - stripped & tweaked [3 Flavours]
I used the Compatible version.
Maybe GETRIL could be part of the solution.

wifi problem is not moto E specific
I feel we are wasting a lot of time trying to fix a non-moto E specific problem as a device specific problem.
This weird wifi bug is present in a lot a cynogenmod roms, different flavors, different versions, and also lot's of different devices. (samsung S2/S3/S4, motorola, ...)
So, if you don't have the bug on your home our business network, then that is fine, but the bug does exist in upstream code and is triggered with the right combination of access point or device settings. Maybe we should start specifying exactly what the hotspot settings (channel, encryption type, key length, wifi radio chipset, wifi radio frequency used, firmware version of access point ;..) are in a big database to find the root cause. Again, it is not moto E specific.
Some poor workarounds exist, like using a fixed IP instead of DHCP, setting the wifi radio on the phone to 2.4 Ghz or 5 Ghz instead of audo ...
A CM community wide effort will be needed to fix this wifi stuff.
The GPS bug however is moto E specifc ...

Bluetooth contacts synch problems

Hi everyone!
I just bought the Redmi Note 2 phone and the Zeblaze Crystal watch and after connecting the watch to the phone I found out that the contacts can not be synchronized. I have my contacts synched with Google and Mi accounts and also on both SIM cards but for some reason the watch can not see them. Everything else is working - I can read my SMS, call cogs etc, but the contacts can not be seen by the watch.
Later on I tried to connect the phone to my car and it connects and works fine - I make and accept calls but again the contacts can not be synched. The car has a very good Bluetooth settings menu and a specific function for contacts downloading but when I try to download the contacts after a few seconds it stops and gives a "not possible" message. I can only download the call log... Just like with the watch...
So I am starting to believe that it is a problem with the phone - maybe something with the MIUI settings (MIUI ver. 66.77.33.00).
With my wife's Samsung phone everything connects just fine and the contacts are synchronized immediately to the car or the watch so its really a problem with the phone.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
There is no such thing as MIUI ver. 66.77.33.00. You're probably running a bogus ROM filled with who knows what. Legit versions are something along the lines of 5.x.xx
But I've also read there is a bug that breaks contact synching via bluetooth and it doesn't seem to be fixed in the dev rom, yet. Can't really test it, don't have BT in a car or a smartwatch.
Developer rom name:
Y.M.D
Y = Year (2015 -> 5)
M = month
D = day
Stable rom name:
V.x.x.x
V = miui version (for example miui 6 -> 6 or 7 > 7)
x = some subversions
Resellers rom name:
VV.x.x.x
VV = double miui version (for example miui 6 -> 66, miui 7 -> 77)
x = some subversions

Crim Soukyuu: Thanks for your answer...
I am getting really confused - I am posting a screenshot showing the MIUI version and some other specs. The phone is really not behaving bad but there are some apps that I want to get rid of and I can not.
If there is a better clean ROM for this phone I may think about flashing it...
Please see the details on the screenshot and let me know what you understand out of it... I am really not too much in the MIUI/android versions...

" delirium Rom"
Ive got no Problem with that
@ratab: your version is rigged so that you will never get any official updates (simply because there won't likely be a MIUI v66 in the next decade). It might not behave weirdly on the surface, but you can never know what kind of spyware might be hiding in the background. Just flash a clean EU ROM and be done with it.
I had the exact same MIUI version on mine, so you're not alone. It was full of junk and a virus scan revealed two trojans. False positives, I assumed, but removed them nonetheless. The amount of junk on this phone beggars belief, so I'm glad I never hooked it up to my email or anything like that before getting a custom ROM.
It seemed like a completely legit version of MIUI, though. Got mine from gearbest.com.
EDIT: Oh and yeah, I haven't been able to sync contacts to my car either (Mazda 3). It seems to be audio only.
Thanks everyone for the support. I am really thinking about flashing the latest EU ROM - I will just have to read a bit more about flashing because really like the phone and do not want to loose it too soon doing something wrong during the flash...
Need some help in choosing the correct ROM for that phone...
I followed the link that Crim Soukyuu gave for a clean EU ROM - Multilang Dev MIUI v7 ROM - v5.10.16 but when I followed the download link there are two options - MIUI 6 and MIUI 7. And inside there are number of different files for downloading and I do not know which one to take. Would someone please help me with choosing the correct one?
Thanks!
You'd have to do something terribly wrong, like purposely pulling the battery mid-flash to hard brick the device. Even flashing a faulty ROM usually still allows you to boot into fastboot and flash a working ROM from there. I've had a few softbricked devices (recoverable from fastboot) and no hardbricked devices (not recoverable) so far.
edit: huh, sorry, didn't refresh the page before posting. You should get the newest release, namely 5.10.22 as it's reportedly has better battery life. So far it's been a good version for me.
As for MIUI6 vs MIUI7, take the 7 one. It has root built in and is the newest version of the ROM, while the 6 is the old stable one that doesn't have root, afaik.
edit2: oh and our device is codenamed "hermes", so you need the xiaomi.eu_multi_hermes_5.10.22_v7-5.0 one
Thanks for the prompt reply. I found it and already downloading...
Is there any how-to procedure to follow - I am really afraid of doing something wrong...
I also think the phone is not rooted and I will have to root it first and then flash the new ROM.
Then probably put it on the SD card and flash from there...
If you're on windows, you can try using this tool to get TWRP installed on your phone (don't have to unlock the bootloader). Boot into it (press vol+ repeatedly after turning it on) and allow modification (otherwise the mi recovery will delete TWRP on reboot). Then just wipe the phone and flash the ROM you've put on your SD card. It has shown me an error the first time I tried flashing the ROM, but after rebooting into TWRP once more it worked just fine.
Thank you very much for the assistance - flash done and all problems gone - the phone shares all contacts now...
Looks fine for now - I will need time to check the MIUI 7 but seems to be OK.
Thanks again!
Good stuff! I ended up flashing mine with the sAOSP ROM and got a fully working bluetooth sync with that :good:
So far so good - the phone acts really well with the new ROM and battery life is much better.
I have another question regarding the Bluetooth connections...
I was able to pair my phone to the smart watch (Zeblaze Crystal) and to my car's Bluetooth and successfully synched the contacts.
Using the car Bluetooth is simple and easy - the only issue I have is that the phone is dual SIM and when I try to dial from the car the phone always asks which SIM to be used and eventually after a few seconds the dialing is interrupted. I can always set one of the SIM cards to be the default dial SIM but then why having the two cards if I cannot chose which one to use. Unfortunately there is no option in MIUI 7 to assign a SIM to a contact and the phone will always ask and wait for my choice...
Same case when dialing from the smart watch so at the end - no remote dialing from a Bluetooth device without touching the phone... If anyone knows a good way to solve this issue please share!
On the other hand I have a different issue with the smart watch. When connected, the watch overtakes the phone function and during a call the audio goes through the watch (funny). My natural desire is to transfer the audio to another Bluetooth device (headset or earpiece) so I can operate my calls/messages/notifications from the watch and hear the audio from the Bluetooth earpiece without taking the phone out of my bag.
The problem is that when I disable the phone audio function for the watch connection and enable it for the earpiece the watch also looses the control/notification capabilities - it just stops notifying me about the calls and messages I get.
There are three options in the Bluetooth menu that allow me to use the watch for: Phone audio, Media audio and Input device. If I disable the phone audio it cuts also the notifications and then no meaning of having the watch at all...
Any idea how to set the three devices (phone, watch, earpiece) to work simultaneously???
Thanks!

LG V30+ unlocks by itself

I have enabled all types of unlocking ( face, voice and fingerprints ) . Some times the screen gets unlocked on its own. ( When i was not holding it and i when was not looking at it.). Happened quite a few times.
This is a scary and a very serious issue.
Can someone give some pointers on how to debug this issue?

Voice. Were you talking?
Do you have "safe zones" where it's unlocked -- like at home, or connected to certain Wi-Fi networks or when you have certain Bluetooth devices connected? You may have enabled some of that in settings and forgotten.
Thanks @ChazzMatt. Nope I was silent.
Bluetooth and NFC off.
Btw i see that there is a feature called smart unlock. I dont know whether its turned on by default. I went there and see that they have this unlock for ok google voice. But i wasn't speaking. Anyways, i have turned it off now. There is one more thing called trusted places. When clicked on it, it shows my current location (home). But there is no way to check whether its enabled or not. Cant delete it either. I think this could well have unlocked it. not sure.

Yes, smart unlock and trusted spaces are the settings I was referring to.
There has to be a way to turn off trusted spaces.
Here you go:
Long click on Home. See the pop up at bottom of screenshot?

Yah.. Got it . Thanks for the tip on turning it off.
I still wonder why it happens randomly. Also not sure about usefulness of this feature.
Anyways i hope this is the one that unlocked it. I will see if this happens again.
Also check to see if you have lock display IMMEDIATELY when screen turns off. You should.
See the bottom two settings.

Update: It happened again this morning. ( I had disabled all smart unlock). Now this is scary. Only one remote possibility is face unlock. ( I had kept the phone on a table while ironing the cloth. I would have looked at from a wide angle. The possibility of this is only 1%) I am surprised nobody else has come across this issue. @ChazzMatt Thanks. I checked lock screen settings. Its the same as yours.
I am going to turn off face unlock authentication to rule out some bug in the face recognition.
Update: Tried with face unlock disabled. ( that was a remote possibility). To my surprise it again got unlocked randomly. ( quite a few times)
Phone was kept on the table and i was working on a laptop.
So it really is an issue. Its frustrating. Can someone tell me which component/software the bug belongs to?. Should i take the phone to lg service center? I hate taking new phone to a service center. Any other tips?
Finally figured it out.
I removed voice recognition screen unlock. Then the issue didn't happen. I then bring back face face recognition. Again no issue. ( Its more than 48 hours now) . So its the voice recognition which was the culprit. Must be a bug?. Because i had set my daughter's voice and she was not even in the room. Even i was not talking. No music playing.
Not many people use the voice unlock. I think thats why we dont see this issue reported. ( Even i set voice unlock just to test it)
Thanks @ChazzMatt for all the help.
Me too...

I noticed this happening today as well. Same situation. I was sitting still, quiet, and phone randomly unlocked.
Going to disable voice unlock.
