Hi guys!
I have a GS3(GT-I9300) with stock jellybean(4.1.1). S Voice was working fine until recently, but now it gives "Network error" for every command. The same commands work in Google Now. Waking up S Voice with "Hi Galaxy!" works. I have spent a lot of time with Samsung support but they make me wanna cry, they're useless. This one guy suggested to pull out the battery for a couple of seconds, and after that it worked for a minute or so(can't see why, but as long as it's a solution I'm happy) but it stopped working again. I have tried google but came up empty. Do you have any ideas how I could fix this without rooting it(I'm not interested in rooting so please leave those solutions out)?
OK So it seems that having Adblock Plus installed blocks S Voice. Hope this will help someone else.

Hello Everyone.
Wonder if anyone can help me as I think I am going mad!
I use my headset all day (listening to podcasts) and whenever i answer a call, I have to remain very still for fear i will hang up (which happens regularly).
I have had the same problem on many roms - Omega, Temasek, Cyanogenmod, Foxhound and many more, its driving me crazy.
I have also installed proximity service and an app which I cant remember the name of at the moment, but will update when i find out. Needless to say, nothing has worked, the screen always comes on when a call comes in.
Does anyone have any idea what i can do to sort this, i never need my screen on when my phone is in my pocket.
PS I have tasker, maybe i can use that to sort it?
Thanks for any input

Try Gravity box-power settings-the last two options
Can anyone confirm that smart lock is working on there device? Have been trying to use it for a while now with very little luck. On body detection works but only within a matter of seconds, trusted places doesn't work at all and i can't unlock my phone with okay Google ( but i have read some devices don't support this feature). Just after some reference points, they could be all the same.
Works fine for me. In stock as for custom ROM. I don't use on body detection but location works fine. Make sure you have enabled great accuracy for location services.
It works fine on my p9000, but I am on Eragon ROM .. Smart lock works as it should and I can use the command ok google to unlock.
However having tried other ROMs I know that what options appear in Security >> Smart Lock vary - as an example when I tried Lineage ROM I couldn't unlock device with my voice, nor could I use voice commands from any screen. Unfortunately I haven't really sued Stock for a little while so I am unsure what actual options are available for the Stock ROM. I would of assumed though the standard Smart Lock options of On Body Detection / Trusted Places / Trusted Devices should be standard (I have 2 other options Trusted face & trusted voice on Eragon)
Going on a long shot, i run a launcher so I'm going to run without for a day or two and see how it works out. Wouldn't have thought it would make a difference but worth a try.

Think I nailed it, i use a gesture to lock my screen on Nova launcher. When i lock with the power button it's fine but when i use a gesture smart lock doesn't work, just incase anyone else ever has a similar problem.
I have a galaxy s6 edge+ with a newly installed ROM (SmokkieROMv4) which I absolutely love because it's so snappy and battery life is awesome! It's like a brand new phone. Props to the makers!
Specs:
Android 7.0
Kernel: 3.10.61 SmokkieKERNEL_v2
Build number: SMOKKIEROM V4
Phone Model: SM-G955F (Galaxy s6 Edge+
Here is my problem, everything works great besides being able to talk to people!!! If I call my voicemail it automatically hangs up after exactly 6 seconds, if I call any other numbers it has no dial tone or any noise whatsoever but I think it does connect...just no sound.
Things I've tried:
1. Factory reset
2. Clearing all app data/cache/dalvik
3. Installed various phone/contacts .apk's and set them to my default calling app, and disabled the ones it came with. I did set all the permissions for the newly installed .apks with the same results when I call someone.
4. Disabled S voice and google assistant (Unable to toggle "Ok Google detection" in the google app because it's grayed out(disabled) for some reason.
5. Tried a different ROM with 7.0
Please if anyone knows how to fix this it would be very much appreciated as I do love this new update very much and everything else works flawlessly!

Interesting... Well, atleast i now know im not the only one with this issue....
the only somewhat fix for this is(and its not really a fix) and you can actually use the phone. Is to make sure you are connected to wifi and have wifi calling enabled and set as a priority use. It really sucks cause if your on the road or not home or whatnot that wont work, obviously.. I use skype alot with my data,which is somewhat ok for me.. IDK if Whatsapp would work as a bypass or not? ive never used it so im not sure with that. But theres definitely a major glitch somewhere in the samsung software or drivers for the phone itself. Cause unlike yours, mine is stock. No root,Roms etc.. just apps..
Im running 7.0 SM-G928T
Ive also talked to the tech guys for my carrier (T-Moblie) with no prevail what-so-ever... Question, is your phone in mint condition? .
Whatsapp
Yes whatsapp does work for me and is what I have had to use the past couple of days. Everything besides the actual phone app works correctly lol. But of course after playing around some my phone screen just shot out on me for some reason. It just blinks random colors and stays black most of the time. The last app I installed was called "Root Essentials" and shortly after my phone starts doing this. I have no idea how to fix. Can't afford a new phone at the moment either. Definetely need it to work though as it is used for work. Thanks for the help anyways.
Got the update last night. Tried to check voicemail morning and was greeted with Alvin & The Chipmunks blabbing at me. It's like the speed of the call is x20 speed or something. It's completely unusable. Phone sluggish as hell, too.
Anyone know what's going on with the voice speed? I've never heard of anything like this.
I'm supposed to get a callback for a job interview I had yesterday. Pretty crappy timing. How is Google going to push an update that breaks calls like this? Absurd.
its nokia that pushed the update they did not make the rom right
Same here I told nokia about it and they told me to wait for a bug fix. I told them I wanted to downgrade since your firmware bug broke my phone.
Just wait for a bug fix? So use a Phone that cant make calls right?
So payed a guy to unlock my boot loader to try to flash a rom so i can just make the phone usable.
I spend about 6 hours try to get the rom to work. With little to no luck I was able to get into twrp a few times.
So ya Im in the same boat. I just got this phone back 3 weeks ago from a rma due to a bad chargeing port. Now Im forced to pay some one to unlock the boot loader and try to get a custom rom Just to be able to call
If I cant get the rom working Im going to have to go spend like $200 on a new phone today just sucks

Same thing happened to me with the sped up chipmunk-y sound. It happened during the dial and after someone picks up. Though it didn't seem to happen every time. Also, I didn't notice it on any incoming calls, just outgoing.
I tried a few things to fix it--rebooting, clearing some app caches, etc. Nothing seemed to work.
My next step was to try a factory reset, but then all of a sudden the issue disappeared. No new update was released/installed, so I just assumed the issue had been on my provider's end (T-Mobile), and they fixed whatever the problem was.
As for sluggishness of the phone after the update: I agree. It seems a little sluggish to me too. Not anything that is making the phone unusable. But it is noticeably more sluggish than when 9.0 was installed.
Have you guys modified the phone in any way like unlocking the bootloader or rooting?

I haven't. Just using whatever over the air OS Nokia pushes to the phone.
yes I did pay to unlock the boot loader I used linage from the rom section
it has all the bugs of the stock rom. Cant call out or with out the loud noise bug and no voip apps work
I did get the Android 9 based rom to work. it has a few bugs but its usable.
I more or less gave up im looking at a iphone now.
I spend 20 hours or more trying to get this phone to work
first the usb port goes out and I cant charge.
2 weeks after having the phone back I got a magnetic cable so the usb port would not brake any more cable. That was like $20
After 2 weeks android 10 more or less bricks the phone (a phone that cant make calls)
Then I have to spend like $15 to pay the poor guy to unlock my boot-loader (he did a great job)
I spend a lot more time loading the linage android 10 rom for it to have the same bugs ( in no way is it the devs fault im sure he did not know).
... can unlock your bootloader for a small fee.
I would say all android 10 based rom will have those kind of problems. I can only confirm it on the android 10 linage one
When I flash twrp most of the time the twrp would just freeze if booting form the phone.
I had no problem loading it with fastboot works evey time. So I would only use it install the rom and just boot it when you need it. I would not suggesting flashing it to recovery as it only worked some of the time for me.
Hope all that info helps

How to fix the phone call problems
To everyone having calling issues (distortion / squealing, or other people can't hear them), try this: Turn off Voice over LTE. You go to Settings -> Wireless and Networks -> Mobile Networks -> VoLTE, and turn that setting off. This fixed the problem for all 3 Nokia 7.1 phones in our family, when nothing else seemed to work.
Turning off VoLTE and wifi calling works, but VoLTE is important in my area with TMobile. Without it, too many dropped and missed calls. I actually downgraded from an Xperia XZ1 just to get VoLTE, now this happens.
I have TA-1085 running Android 10 that was pushed OTA on 12/25, while I do not have calling issues (from native call app) initially, calling from all 3rd party app (e.g. Messenger or Wechat) are not working: I can hear other side, while the other side can not hear me.
In addition to disabling VoLTE, I also changed the 'preferred network type' (see posting from author 'fiumaxx' on nokia's user forum, search there using android-10-after-update-on-nokia-7-1 as search string). I changed it to LTE/CDMA which works well for me.
Normal call sound is back to normal but 3rd party calling still not working.

This worked for me:
Go to Settings/Apps and Notifications and then tap on where it says See All xx Apps. Scroll down until you see the Google app and tap on that. On the next screen you see, tap on Permissions and then tap on Microphone. A small window will pop up, and you must change the setting from Allow to Deny.
After changing this setting, Google Assistant won't work (no Hey Google), but the fix is persistent after reboots. This makes me think the real problem may be with the Google app. We'll see.

Thank you so much for sharing! Works like a charm
Unfortunately denying microphone for the Google app did not work for me. I also noticed no one can hear me when making videos calls (Hangouts, Duo, Facebook messenger).
I then decided to factory reset, but did not help. Both VoLTE and video calling still not working.
Anyone else with video calling mic issues?

I had the same symptom on normal phone call (other side could not hear me). In my case, it was the Google Assistant not releasing the microphone, and here what worked: open the system settings, go to Google (service&preferences)/Account services/Search, Assistant&Voice/Voice/Voice Match. Them make sure Access With Voice Match is ticked off.
Or try opening settings, searching at the top for "Voice" and open "Voice Match", and tick off "Access with Voice Match".

Confirm this recipe works for my TA-1085. Thanks much.
I solved my random voice problems (others can't hear me on Duo video call, duplex voice on the other side etc.) with the voice match assistant workaround until hopefully gets fixed in a next update. Don't know for sure if the thing is only on Nokia's side or Google app's as well on Android 10, since disabling Hey Google solves all issues
Will have to try/catch on future google app updates as well to find out

Under "Voice Match" I don't see any "Access With Voice Match" setting. What I do see is "Hey Google," which says "Access your Assistant any time you say "Hey Google" when your screen is on." Perhaps this is what your mean?
I tried this solution and it works, too. I think it also has the advantage of not completely shutting down Assistant's access to the microphone. Just waking up Assistant by voice. Much less of a price. Thanks!
Has anyone heard anything about a real fix for this issue? I've gotten two Android updates since the upgrade to Android 10, but this issue has not been fixed yet.
After extensive talks and inside info on Nokia's community forums, seems like a Maintenance update (MR) is on the way for May, which they say fixes -among others- both voice bugs. That is, the echo on calls plus sound distortion in some games (e..g Monument Valley 2 for me)
Cross your fingers everyone for a quick release and confirmation of the fixes!
Today was the day at last....! MR update showed up rolling out globally and echo during calls plus crackling sounds in games are finally gone
Better late than never NOKIA

Yes, they seem to have fixed the voice call problems with Whatapp, Wechat, Hangouts and etc since the Android 10 update.
