Hi,
I have a S4 Mini Duos (I-9192), stock ROM, baseband version: I9192UBUAMH1
The problem is:
While I am talking, after some time, the other people is no longer able to hear me.
I can hear him as normal, but he cannot hear me.
That happens randomly --- at least it seems so at present, I haven't found any patterns yet.
That happens no matter I use the phone or a earphone(headset).
That happens no only when using the build-in phone app, but also when I use Skype.
Thanks!
Holding the phone with your left hand and your little finger covers the mike, yes?

Sorry for the delayed reply.
As I said, it happens even when I am using earphones. So I don't think it is because I cover the mic.
Thanks for the response though.

Hi folks,
I am experiencing some strange problem, since leedroid rom mod 1.4 this feature isn't working anymore. I've tried a few different roms after I recognized that the volume stays the same after almost "throwing" the device in all possible directions I've wiped everything before installing the different roms but no change, it won't work for some reason and I don't no what this may caused.
It's a nice feature and I really don't want to miss it. Could this be perhaps a hardware related problem ? It's driving me nuts because I have no idea at the moment
Every help is appreciated ! Thanks in advance.
Hi again,
I've run some more "tests" and actually found out that it's working when the phone is lying on the desk, then the volume is getting reduced after grabbing it but when I hold the phone in my hand and shake it during an incoming call nothing happens unless I put it with the face down on a table.
So my question is this how it's supposed to work ? I actually don't know which sensors are being used for this feature :s

The feature only works if the phone is completely still when it starts ringing in my experience.
If you're holding it in your hand and you call it then it won't happen. If you leave it on the desk and then call it, it will happen. The sensor being used is the Accelerometer, I think. Which is incredibly sensitive.

I really appreciate your answer !
That's what I actually thought and thanks a lot for your confirmation The sensor seems to be very sensitive in this case but as long as it's working I'm ok with it because I leave it almost all the time on my desk at work, I just thought that it also had worked while taking it from the pocket but I was obviously wrong.
Hey guys, my galaxy nexus has started acting up. If I make a call to someone I can hear the person talk, but they can not hear me. Now the person I call when they try talking, they just hear there own voice back when they talk. If they said hi, they would hear themselves say hi back. Now the strange part, if I turn my phone to speakerphone everything works fine?!? Can anyone make anything out on what's going on with this? Suggestions? Thank you

What ROM do you use?
I'm using winners00 build of CM10 JB rom. I have been using the same rom for the past three to four weeks roughly. No problems until now

I'd check with the dev of that ROM (or a forum support thread for it) if this problem has been encountered before. If not, I'd try flashing stock factory images for your device to see if the problem persists. If it does, it's likely to be a HW issue.
Problem: Cannot turn on the screen by pressing the power button sometimes. The screen is black or very dim, I cannot tell. One can see nothing on the screen, and it doesn’t accept any touch input, either. The phone still rings if there’s an incoming call. If this happens, the following several presses (about 10 - 20) on the power button will probably lead to a reboot. The “screen auto-rotate” and the proximity sensor may fail after the reboot, but will recover after a manual reboot.
Frequency: Fewer with higher Rom version. About once per day for 4.3.
Other description:
The problem frequently happens when I just take the phone outside my house/office, and seldom happens when the phone just stays somewhere.
The problem seems to be irrelevant to the remaining battery capacity or the uptime, but it never happens when charging.
The problem seems to be irrelevant to the Apps installed.
The problem seldom happens in the first 3-4 days after flashing a Rom, but happens more and more frequently as time goes by. My guess is some cache is stuffed by some trash, which causes the problem. The phone may be fine as long as the trash can be cleaned up on a regular basis.
I manually reboot my phone at most every two days.
Solutions tried, but don’t work
Flashing official ROMs 4.0.4, 4.1.1, 4.1.2, 4.2.2 and 4.3 following the procedure “adb reboot bootloader; fastboot oem unlock; flash-all; fastboot oem lock”, without google wallet, not rooted.
Turning off the auto-brightness control, as suggested by some post on the Internet.
Does it look like it goes to standby normally or does the screen show gibberish and then turns off?

Thank you very much.
I think it's standing-by normally even through the screen is black (or very dim, I cannot tell), since it rings if there's an incoming call. I can see nothing from the screen, and I don't think the screen accepts any touch input, either.
Does this answer your question? Thank you.

Was just asking if you had gibberish yes or no. In that case i've got a different issue than you (Suspecting f*cked GPU).
Have you tried a different ROM/Kernel combination maybe it's related to that.

No.
No, I just tried the official ROMs. Any suggestion?
Perhaps it's just busy in the background and running low on RAM. Give LagFix a try. Sorry can't link atm as I am on mobile...

LagFix does NOT help in my case. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
I've also had this blank screen with calls still ring issue for as long as I can remember, nearly 2.5 yrs.
I've always suspected it's my ROM and so I'd try out another ROM'S, BUT no other ROM works like how I'd like, so I always come back to my ROM.
It doesn't happen every single day, but it does happen very often.
I've tried using apps that auto reboot daily, but eventually this blank screen issue will return.
Unfortunately I can't seem to find any solution, so I just put up with it, it's like the 1 only flaw with my ROM.

Not to be at all rude, but I'm really glad op has had this issue from testing other versions of Android, cause then at least I know I don't need to give up my great tablet mode ROM.
LOL
I think I've finally found a work around for this screen of death.
Using Exposed, download/install this module/extension:
Disable Proximity
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.mrchandler.disableprox
It does exactly what it's name is and ever since then I've not once had to remove my GN battery to work again because the screen went completely dead.
NVM
Screen still goes dead.
Anyone find an actual fix to this?
isajoo,
I had pretty much the same problems with my Galaxy Nexus running CyanogenMod 11 M12.
It got better by doing the following :
Blowing dry air in the earpiece… though the proximity sensor is clearly beside it. Can't do any harm though, I guess.
Settings/Applications/All/menu/Reset applications preferences (or whatever that's called in english) : that seemed to do a lot of good to my phone ! However, it's a very unsatisfactory answer on a technical point of view, as I still don't know WHAT was precisely needed. It's a "magic wand" solution for which I can't give an explanation.
Not specifically related, but greatly helped my phone in the responsiveness area : Trimmer (fstrim) (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fifthelement.trimmer), an updated version of LagFix that you may already know
Hope that helped !
(I wanted to try http://www.androidlegend.com/how-to-perform-proximity-sensor-calibration-on-any-samsung-phone/ as well, but apparently, /sys/class/sensors/proximity_sensor/prox_cal does not exist on my phone…)
hi to all,
i search everywhere and i flashed the phone around 15 times, just to see if its a rom problem.
i try all the cloudy'S stock rom but still the same.
so when i receive or i make a CALL i hear very well but the other person can't hear me,
to make it working i must activate the speaker option to communicate with the other person.
But as many people write here when we activate the speaker the second mic is activated but the lower mic is also in
good reception so maybe i must change something, somewhere???
please help me,thanks to all
Mine too... used to only be first call second would work... although now it is almost every call for me.
BTW, I have never had problems with bluetooth calls!
Although bluetooth works, it does not seem to be a hardware mic issue (like a dirty mic as some suggest), seems to be a codec bug. I'm pretty sure of it because I have call recording on my phone and my recorded voice (that no one can hear on my first call) is distorted like it is down converting my voice to only 4-12kbps.
I hope the ZVE update with HD voice will place a new codec in the phone dumping the buggy one.
Deciding to update to latest ZVE version to give it a try.... will try and let you know if it worked.
I've actually started having this problem as well, but I have never touched the software on the phone. Bone stock. I wonder if there is some systemic hardware issue with the mic.

Fyi I factory reset my phone and it seems to have fixed the mic. Heavy price to pay for a non-rooted phone but at least my phone works as a phone again.

Phone, menu, call settings, Enhanced voice, unchecked.
I feel the noise cancelation is too aggressive.

Nothing yet my friend?
Your software appears different than mine. Is yours stock? If not, would you be willing to TOT back to stock to test if the issue remains?
I noticed something like that :
Not always but it happens - while talking, suddenly I'm not being heard on the other side. It happens as new connection (at once after connection) or while existing connection (after I said few words.)
What helps ? Pressing mute/unmute.
Phone is brand new.
What's wrong ?

same here, I thought it was a problem on the other side, but since other people are having this so probably that's another bug of this phone ;(
Problem seems solved. Everything looks fine after ACR Call Record had been uninstalled.

Just uninstalled ACR app manually. Since then every conversation has absolutely no problem.
Got to find different call record app....
