Skype constantly hanging up on android samsung gal...

 Hi folks.
I often use skype to talk to my buddies during evenings. I have a samsung S4 I9505 (vers 5.0.1) while a majority also have samsung phones, with a variation of models. The contact I spend most time talking to has a samsung (unsure of the model, some kind of lesser expensive galaxy, firm 5.0.1). Now to my questions.
I have been talking to my friend every day, constantly for a month. During the conversations, Skype spontaneusly at least three to four times per hour, regularly. What happens is that suddenly, I stop hearing my friend and there is silence for six to seven seconds and Skype hangs up. I will try to describe in detail:
We both use Wifi.
We both have chargers connected while talking or at least I do.
Skype actually hangs up "call ended", but does not crash, the program is still active. 
I have no problems with other apps whatsoever.
Both of our phones aren't tampered with in any way, they have stock firmware and they are automatically updated.
My other question is that I have noticed that Skype automatically increases volume if it senses a say, tvshow or blender in background, spontaneusly increasing volume of background noise so becomes like really, really loud. Especially with speaker on. Is there a way to switch off this feature? There is a way on PC, was just wondering if I'm missing something.
I am sorry for starting a potentially redundant topic, been searching around but found nothing that at least fits my description.
Thanks in advance

I've run into a similar (but opposite) situation recently.  I upgraded my Mac to 10.10.3 around the same time I upgraded to the latest Skype application (around April 13th).  Now my non-Skype contacts do not appear in any of my custom lists.  My contacts are only in the "All" list.  They still are fine on my iPad, however.
When I select a contact on my Mac, all of the checkboxes for which custom list the contact should be in are blank (unchecked).  I've reinstalled older versions of Skype for Mac and wiped out the settings.  This did not make a difference which makes me think the list settings stored on the Skype servers have been damaged.
The iPhone version of Skype doesn't seem to even have access to these custom lists.  Skype keeps getting worse and worse with each update!

  • Flash Builder Constantly Hangs. HELP!!

    I'm running Flash Builder CS5 on a 64bit Windows 7 HP box and it constantly hangs while typing, selecting text, pasting, and other normal actions in the editor. It hangs for 5 to 10 minutes and then goes back to working normal again. However, sometimes for not more than a single character being typed and it hangs again! It's gotten so frustrating I'm wondering how I am ever going to complete my AIR app. Some days it is hung for longer than it is working and so I get virtually nothing done.
    Does anyone have an idea why it might constantly hang? I am not running any versions of Eclipse or Aptana on this machine.
    Thanks!
    PK

    Well, I finally figured this out. Even though I had uninstalled Webroot Security Essentials (anti-virus software) it never really was gone. Because I didn't know that I brought my machine back to factory software state and reinstalled Adobe. Flash Builder was working great so I re-installed Webroot and FB started crashing again. This time I was able to uninstall Webroot completely and FB is working again.
    I switched to XFinity security (Norton) and it is still working correctly.
    Although I ranted against Adobe a bit (sorry, guys) it wasn't directly their fault. Still, for the amount of money the company makes on these products it would be nice if they tested them against the leading anti-virus packages so if there is a problem it can get resolved by the software companies. Just a thought.

  • Firefox constantly hangs when I am using greasemonkey 0.9.20 with the following user scripts KOC power bot 20120516B and KOC power tools 20120428A, only in past

    I am using Firefox 13.0.1 and for the past week it constantly hangs while playing Kingdoms of Camelot. I use greasemonkey 0.9.20 and am using KOC power tools v20120428A and KOC power Bot v20120516B

    You can check for problems caused by a recent Flash 11.3 update and possibly downgrade to Flash 11.2 or 10.3.

  • Firefox constantly hangs/freezes/stops etc. What's going on?

    For the last 2-3 weeks, I've been experiencing massive issues with Firefox.
    I use a desktop with Windows 7, 64-bit.
    I originally started with Firefox 5, and then a week or so before the release of Firefox 6 I started experiencing these issues. I was ecstatic when I found the release of Firefox 6 two days early, and for maybe a day or so, it was perfect before the problems started again.
    Problems include: Firefox constantly hangs, freezes, not responding, stops loading etc. Whatever you want to call it, it does it randomly for any reason. It's not set off by trying to access a particular website or whatever, it could just be trying to open in a new tab or window. It even happens with simple things like typing or scrolling down a page. When it freezes it freezes my entire system until it gets going again. Sometimes it will even freeze when the window is minimized and I'm not currently using Firefox for anything.
    I've tried scanning for viruses, clearing settings and stored files, uninstalling and re-installing, disabling any and all add-ons, even down grading all the way back to 3.6 and still nothing works. I've also tried all the "trouble-shooting solutions" I've come across, and most of them involve add-ons I've never even heard of, let alone use, so these are useless to me.
    I had issues with a non-responsive script at start up, but after disabling a Java add-on this stopped, however the constant freezing remains.
    Like I said, it's been happening for a few weeks, no matter what version of Firefox I use.
    I know I'm the millionth person to complain about this; I've read all the other threads, but nothing is being done about this issue.
    I've used Firefox for 8 years, but this problem is so infuriating I'm ready to call it quits and move to a different browser, which I don't want to do because I hate all the rest.
    Is there anything else I can do to solve this, or are we just going to have to wait for the developers to 'maybe' get around to fixing it?

    Thanks for the reply!
    I have noticed the high memory usage. And when I was having these issues I tried to install 3.6.18 and it wouldn't run.
    But I had problems with my computer and sent it away for repair and now I'm running 6.0.2 with none of the previous problems I experienced.

  • My laptop crashed and i lost my recovery key. All my bookmarks are still showing up on my android samsung galaxy 4. How can I recover my recovery key?

    My laptop crashed and i lost my recovery key. All my bookmarks are still showing up on my android samsung galaxy 4. How can I recover my original recovery key? I tried deleting my account and creating a new one as suggested but now I get a sync error saying the recovery keys don't match. Also is there a way to export my bookmarks from my mobile device?

    If you have lost your recovery key then unfortunately there is nothing to do, it can be regenerated but that will cause all data in sync to be deleted. You could try syncing your phone, then disconnecting it from sync, create a new sync account and connect your phone to send the data to that account, but there is a potential for the data to be lost there as well. sorry.

  • E52 constantly hangs + sound quality

    1.
    After using my E52 for 2-3 months with no particular problems besides miserable sound quality, I did the latest software upgrade (022.009.221.01) and after that, the phone constantly hangs. I have been unable to find a pattern causing the problem, the phone is simply just hanging when I take it out of my pocket and want to use it. Sometimes the LCD is all lit (every pixels ON) so it almost appears like a flashlight (no graphics shown, all white LCD). I then have to remove battery, reinsert and re-boot.
    I have a feeling it could be the power saving feature causing it, the phone is also intolerable long to wake up after going into power save mode.
    2.
    Secondly the sound during conversation is beyond standard in 2009. The ear speaker has a scratchy sound and talking with speaker ON is almost impossible as people in the other end of conversation report that they can hardly understand as sound is "pixelated"and leve sounds as if goes up and down.
    regards
    Carsten

    Hi,
    I regret to tell you that this is an issue with most E52 series. Try to turn the accelometer off or do a factory reset.
    In the end I have to tell you that Nokia seems like to be much busier than to care about its customers complaints.
    Nokia just makes phone, doesn't care much about what comes after!

  • [Issue] Skype call ends immediately on Samsung Gal...

    Greetings, I'm currently having a problem with calling others on skype and recieving skype calls, and recieving notifications with skype on my mobile device.
    My device specfications are:
    Samsung Galaxy S4 (SCH-l545) w/ stock Android 4.4.2 & WiFi (home/office netowkr), Skype v5.1.0.56619
    I have uninstalled skype several times, and have restarted my phone several times. The problem persisted randomly and I'm able to call echo123 on Skype sometimes. 
    Specifically what happens is once I make a skype phone call is, once the person whom I'm calling answers the call ends in roughly 3-5 seconds and shows my home screen wallpaper and ends in about 5 seconds. I can hear once they answer if they are talking then the skype call ends.
    My second issue is I do not recieve skype notifications such as IM chats, skype calls, or any type of notificaiton on skype. I sometimes do but it is random. My connection is 500 mbps download/upload and I'm calling right near my router on Skype on my phone.
    I found a solution by installing a modified version of skype on an older version but it seems to work with echo123 and does not solve the issue fully. I can't call others on my contacts nor can I recieve notifications on Skype from my phone.
    Thank-you.
    Kind and best regards,

     Bump.

  • Does my new skype number work on my android mobile?

    I guess Skype's description of Skype number is confusing. I have Skype on my android phone. I suppose it always on in the background (yes? no?). I just bought a Skype number. So, am I correct in understanding that if someone calls that Skype number, it will ring on my mobile? If I am NOT correct, how do I get that to happen. I don't hang around my computer most of the day. I am out and about with the mobile. And normally Skype is not open on my computer unless I expect to get or make a call.

    Nevermind. I now know it should work but it doesn't.  The problem is that skype number is not working on my samsung galaxy s4 with android 5.01. Any ideas on how to get it working? Otherwise, I've wasted $60.
