Hi all
Am I the only one experiencing microfone problems on my new galaxy S3?? Im on my third I9300, because of this issue...
People complaining about that the mic vol goes up and down...
I'm also facing similar issues. I'm going to get mine replaced also.
First of all guys make sure 100% it's not the mic. Record some song and see if you still have the problem. I was facing similar issues with the mic going up and down durring calls.
In my case it was the simcard. Don't ask me why, because the same simcard was working fine in another phone, but after getting a replacement everybody said that they can hear me a whole lot better.

I am going through the very same issues.
I had a mic problem with my first S3 during phone calls. It was really annoying me because I couldn't do anything about it everyone was saying they couldn't hear me etc.
The sim I am using is an British UK O2 micro simcard that I used in a iphone 4, cheap samsung, and samsung S2 previously with no problems at all.
I then returned the phone to the T-mobile shop retailers, they said it was rare and not a common fault.
My new one is doing the exact same thing, I didn't update it nor is there a new update.
Can someone please help. Thank you.
I am getting the same issue but not everytime. I am sure that it is not the fault in mic that is causing this problem, as i recorded my voice (using both mics, the one at the top and at the bottom) and it was crytal clear.
turn off Noise Cancelling... fixed my problems
same problem
Had the same issue ,also with the s 2 , but the trick then (witch also worked now ) was to turn off the noise cancellation .
During a call just take the phone away from your ear and under the callers picture there u will find the option to do so
I have literally just started having the same issue today.
Am on FoxHound Rom 1.4 with Siyah Kernel. Had no problems, even made calls last night, perfect.
Then I tried switching Fast Dormancy on, flashed stock kernel and this morning I find when I made calls to Orange customer services, they were saying they couldn't hear me.
Tried testing it myself, and no matter who I call no-one can hear me.
I've tried:
re-flashing rom, kernel
Tried latest stock roms such as I9300XXBLG8_I9300OXABLG8_I9300XXLG8_HOME.tar.md5, none have made a difference. Even Roms I had backed up in clockworkmod that were working perfectly, like CM10 preview and CM9 have stopped working.
I've tried disabling Noise reduction, which has had no effect. Tried factory reset, flashing modems, kernels, roms, stock roms, nothing has made a difference. I can record video, google talk, anything else fine, just not get anything from the mic when making phone calls.
Tried putting a friends 3 SIM in, and the same thing, so it's definitely not network related either. I definately hope it isn't a hardware fault, as I bought mine on ebay and it isn't insured. Was kinda hoping for more than 2 mores usage out of a phone :crying:
Hello all
When I make a call or recive one ,I can't here the one who called me, neither he can here me?
The microphones and speakers are working great except on calls.
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Thanks in advance

After a different issue I sent my partners away under warranty to be fixed and when it was returned it came back with the exact same problem as you have and when we phoned them they asked for us to return it then a week later they sent it back saying whatever it was they thought was wrong with it wasn't covered under warranty and we had to use our insurance to have it repaired at a £50 excess cost to us :crying: we still don't know what or who caused it but it worked fine or the calls did before it was sent for repairs the first time

I'm having the same exact problem. Everything seems to work, i can receive calls and call but i can not hear the other caller and nor can they hear me. I've tried plugging in my earphones but that doesn't seem to work either.
Does anyone have a solution?
Please try two other tests ...
1. test if voice recorder works and you can hear back your recording.
2. test if there is any difference with the original headset which came with the S3!
When on a call, I keep getting this annoying sound kind of like static sounding something like "pukk" ( hope someone got me). It comes just for a second. Nowadays its been happening more than 10 times on a call. Its really getting annoying.
The worst part is this sound comes only when on a call and sadly its not the phone speaker problem since I get it on my earphones too.
This is happening on Stock and ViperOne ROM and the handset is AT&T version which I have been using in India.
Can anybody help me in getting rid of this irritating sound while on a call??
If anybody can help me out here it would be great. Please voice your opinion.. Thanks.
If anybody is facing this problem please try putting another sim card of the same network and of a different network.
This solved my issue, my Sim card was not cut properly hence the disturbance.. Let me know if its d same case with you.
***** started working again after 2 hours... *****
So this happened once before back in November, started working again the after a day or two but wasn't a huge issue as was on holiday so not making calls anyway. It's just happened now, but I need to use my phone. It's not a hardware issue as they can hear me fine and my speakers are working fine as I'm listening to music and it's working in other apps. Any ideas? When I make a call I get the little beep to say the call is initialised, but never hear the ringing or them talking when they answer, I also get the beep when the call is ended. Already tried cache wipe/restart.
I've read every thread I could find on google and most just say either heat up the sound chip (lose connection), or send to Samsung, which is fine if it's a hardware issue but mine isn't.
I'd prefer not to factory reset tbh. Any idea of a fix? AS it's done it before and sorted itself there must be a way to do something?
And not working again?
Did u try flashing latest boeffla kernel. Someone solved in this way
sent from Neatrom'd i9300
i have tried different roms and nothings seems to work, when i try to make a call i cannot hear the other person and they cant hear me either.
Even i get full signal and data but during the call i cannot heard or be heard. idk how to solve this i got months with this problem... what could it be? mic seems to be working since i can listen music and all.
