My problem is that either when i try to make a call or receive a call the phone will put the call through speaker! and i can't take it off speaker.
I also have had a few occasions where it swaps from speaker to earpiece and back again on its own!!
Then today it was connected via bluetooth to my car kit and the calls were all put through the phone earpiece.
Have tried soft reset but to no avail, oh and before i forget im running Rom 1.43.206.4 on o2.
Car stereo has bluetooth. I finally hooked up a microphone so it's usable in the car for making calls. When I place a call everything works fine, but when I receive a call I can't hear the caller, although they can hear me fine.
Anyone else experience this and find a fix?

Yes, I keep finding this myself and I have discovered the "problem" and solution
Basically, any incoming calls default to handset speaker and you have to manually tap "bluetooth" to transfer the call to the headset/handsfree. When making outgoing calls, it defaults to Bluetooth from the offset so no problem!
What I do not know, however, is how to force it to default to Bluetooth on incoming call...
I have not seen that issue and I use BT in my car a lot. BB351
Something else that could be the case: Are you listening to music through A2DP bluetooth at the time that the call comes in? It's possible that the transition from A2DP to headset protocol is what is "blocking" the call from going straight to the handsfree?
chaosdefinesorder is correct, you could have a misbehaving music app (or any other app with audio over bluetooth, such as navigation).
I know that PowerAmp and Playerpro both work well with bluetooth with the music stopping when a call comes in.
I was listening to FM radio at the time. When the call ends it always go back to whatever I was listening to.
So next time I should tap the phone button on the radio instead of sliding the button on the phone, apparently.

This was it. I have to answer the head unit, not the phone.
Operator error.
With Bluetooth on and paired/ connected to a headset (I use a Jambox in my case).
If the phone is muted or set to vibrate only, then no problem.
But if the phone has Sound On (ringtone comes on with a call), I answer the call and the call does not go to the earphone speaker on the phone or the Jambox but to the phone speaker instead.
Pressing the Speaker or the Headset icons during the call does nothing.
I can also hang up the call from the Jambox. So it has the call but not the sound.
I can hear hissing turning on and off on the Jambox as I press the Headset icon, as if it is attempting to send audio over but it stays with the phone.
Muting the phone or setting it to vibrate cures the problem. So does turning off Bluetooth. Restarting the phone does not help.
Can anyone please replicate?
A strange issue is happening:
The earpiece speaker of the phone doesn't work during normal calls, the audio always comes via loudspeaker automatically and the button to switch to loudspeaker/speakerphone during call also doesn't work.
Strangely, it works fine during WhatsApp voice call.
Any idea, what may be the issue and how to resolve it?
Hello,
When I make calls on loudspeaker the microphone cuts out intermittently and the recepient cannot hear me but I can return to the conversation by simply turning off the loudspeaker, obviously this is not convenient.
I have tried all the software fixes available but no success.
In the diagnostic menu for rcv_dual mic loopback the test does not record anything and similarly fails the interactive mic test in the Samsung online interactive app.
The mic does work for phone to ear calls and video recording.
All of this does not make any sense.
