TERWIL85, Getting to the bottom of audio issues is what we're here for. If there is no other damage to the device and you are still in warranty, this is covered. If the phone does have damage, you can file an insurance claim. But we want to troubleshoot to ensure that the issue can not be fixed on our end. What make and model phone do you have? When did this issue start? Had anything changed since the start fo the issue, like a new app, software update, damage, etc.?

That is weird. Lately I have been having the same issue. I'm not for sure what phone the OP has, but I have the S7 Edge. I've done a factory reset and did not download any of the programs except the ones on the device originally. Even turned Advanced Calling off to see if that could have been the issue. But didn't work.

Chris1060, I want to make sure that we clear up any issues with your device. My goal is to make sure that you can have a phone conversation without your device being on speaker phone. Is there any physical or liquid damage to your Galaxy S7 Edge? Does this happen on every call or is it at random? Also, do you have bluetooth turned on in the settings? Please keep us posted.

There is no damage to the device.  It has never be dropped (even on carpet), has no water damage. I purchase the device in November of 2016. This issue began about 3 weeks ago.  I have booted the phone Kim safe mode thinking that maybe it was an app, this did not help. I performed a factory reset without restoring any apps other than what was pre-installed.  Still no change. It is a hit and miss issue,  as I do not have the problem consistently.

Thanks for this additional information as it helps to narrow down the causes of what's going on with your device, Chris1060. Let me continue to work on the issue of your phone with hearing people on a call without using the speakers. What version of software do you have on your device? Have you tried to adjust the volume on your device? Here's a link to help with the steps http://vz.to/2oNSNUk .

I want to make sure that we get this figured out for you so you can connect to the people you care about the most. What is the make and model of the device? Have you backed up all your information?

I have the S7 Edge. I have done 2 factory resets. I did a complete backup of my data, and did not reinstall any software other that what came installed. I have not had the issue for a few days now, so I'm downloading one app at a time to see if this will eliminate the issue.
