Hi guys,
I seem to be having issues with the built in microphone.
My friends cant seem to hear me at all..
And I have to shout into the phone before they can hear me.. (but it's super soft to them)
Is this a hardware issue?
Or is it possible to increase the microphone volume?
PS: incase you needed this.. im using V12 of Xperia 6.5 UnOff Series
Update: I've reverted back to Official UK R3A Firmware BUT still faces the same problem..
Any help from anyone?
Hardware or technical issue?
Have same problem that crop up yesterday. Did a quick search and found several users having mic problem on their X1. No one seem to have a answer. I suspect a problem with the hardware.
I don't have the problem
but make sure in settings->microphone agc is turned on
agc is automatic gain control which mean that it should inc the sensitivity according to input volume

Running EnergyRom WM 6.5. Do you mean Settings -> System -> Auto Volume Control? If so I played with that setting with no improvement.

Before any of you SR members scold me - YES! I have searched myself and can't find an answer...
The volume, specifically in SPEAKERPHONE and EARPIECE is too low for my aging ears. I need it louder. I have tried th following:
the reg hack that changes the init vol and speaker levels from 4/1 to 10/10 - in wm 6.1, however, the init vol always reverts back to 4 ater a reboot or shutoff.
I cant seem to be ablte t permenently increase my volumes on ATT's new 6.1 Rom that I got from the HTC site - Help please...
Try this.
it's an audio boost patch that i downloaded from this forum.
And it works for me.
I'm using ATT Tile with WM6.1 HTC ROm
I hope this works for you too.
Hello, I am having this same problem , but only with the earpiece volume on the phone I posted a thread however no response...I would like to try the audio booster and or changing the settings from 4/1 to 10/10 can you guys give me a hand on how to complete those tweaks? My earpiece volume is soooo low on the phone I have to use speaker or a bluetooth headset just to use the phone. Thank You in advance.
Hi, Just flashed WWE latest version.
Wondering if I can change the registry to reduce the sound level from the earpiece.
At the moment its already at the lowest but the phone is still blasting when someone speaks on the other end. (& yes, its OFF speakerphone...)
Incidentally its not something just in WWE, it was in my previous firmware too.
Thanks for the help!
bump?
Someone must have this annoying issue too!
Same issue but no solution
Does anyone has a solution ?
I have the same problem, the phone volume is too high even at the lowest level ! it is killing my ears..
Hello, greetingz to all. I recently purchased used Xperia, and it worked well untill few days ago, when i start to have problems with microphone (in phone). The sound reception is very poor and people i talk to can barely hear me or not hearing me at all. I tried all and nothing works, except when i connect headset in vibration-only mode. Then the reception of the sound from the headset microphone perfect. But not when the sounds on the phone are on, or in any other case. I also tried does it record sound on video or audio for MMS - same thing, just crackling noise.
I would appreciate if anybody could help with this. Thanks in advance.
P.S. I did hard reset, i did reinstall software from SE Update (even i had most recent one), nothing happened.
Same problem here!
But i can use the headset when the sound is on.
Im afraid i lose my phone for a while, again. I had software problems before.
I think i will burn a good rom when it's back.
in settings->system->Microphone AGC
turned on ?
AGC == automatic gain control which mean the mic adjust it's sensitivity according to the volume of the surroundings
Rudegar,
i wish i read your tip before i brought it to the shop
but i think it would be standard because i also tried a hard reset?
there is also a crack in my xperia, so i sent it anyway
greets, robbin
Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing problems with the volume of my microphone when I'm in a call.
The persons at the other end of the call can only hear me very silent.
The problems are only exists with the standart phone app, when I'm using a third party app (like sipdroid) my volume is fine...
I'm using Cyanogen 7.0.3 on my Nexus One
Is there a fix for this Problem?
With the stock ROM I don't have this problems but I need a ROM with trackball wake because my power button fails.
I can't RMA my Phone to HTC right now, because I'll be not at home in the next three weeks. Therefore I need my mobile phone with me.
I'd use an other ROM which has TB wake support and no microphone issues but at a quick glance through the forums I couldn't find a suiting one.
Thanks for your efforts to help me
hey, i have a similar problem but i noticed that using different kernel affect the microphone. I'm a noob to this so im not entirely sure if kernel is related to microphone.
Well basically im running miui rom 1.5.6 right now and i was using redstar kernel 38.4 and then i upgraded it to redstar kernel 38.5. Then i called my girlfriend and she could barely hear me. Then i reverted back to 38.4 and she hears me now much louder but not the clarity isn't as good.
You using DT a2sd by any chance?
Damn, my phone froze today at work and I had to pull the battery.
Now I can't power it on again due to the not working power button...
Battery trick doesn't work either.
So I guess I have to take the bitter pill and RMA it right now.
Holy sucks! What's the battery trick...just incase.
Can anyone suggest any 'good' solution? kernel or otherwise to fix this $#@$# 'bug' of low in-call volume in Nexus One??
Would really appreciate all the help!
If people hear you very quiet - look up the mod to disable noise cancellation. If the problem will disappear with noise cancellation disabled - it means your 2nd mic is faulty and needs replacement.

Nope, people hear me well. Its that I cannot hear well. Specially in traffic, I usually tell them that I shall call them back
Any help?
Look up Gingerbread volume control app in Development forum. It can override the system settings and make the volume much louder than the maximum stock, AFAIK.
Thanks, but this app is not working for everyone AFAIK.
Hi people,
So i got my new Realme x2 Pro yesterday. Overall i'm really happy with the phone. Today when commuting, i used the bluetooth earphones (sony wf1000-xm3) and... Surprise! the maximum volume is a third of what it was the they before yesterday with my htc u11.
I'm pretty sure it's an option of the OS that is screwing me up, but cannot find the fix. Someone has a similar problem to mine and a way to solve it?
i tried:
- disable the dobly atmos options in sound settings.
- on developer options: disable the absolute volume.
non of them worked.
Oh, forgot to say: I'm on the European version of the OS

I have the same setup and don't have issue with max sound .... have you tried putting the volume up via the headphones directly (touch gesture slide up on the right cup) ?

Hi Jake, It's The WF model, not WH (have them too). The WF does not have volume control (because there is no space to swipe)
but once i arrive home, i'll try what happens with the WH.

So, I'm trying now with the WH-1000xm3 and it's the same problem as the WF.
The maximum volume i'm getting is as best a third of what i had with the HTC U11.
There is something very wrong here.
So, at the end really was a problem with the headset.
no problem with the phone bluetooth.
please close the thread
Hi
I have experienced the same problem with a set of Bose earphones and a bluetooth speaker. The volume is significantly less than when these devices are used with any other mobile phone.
It is categorically an issue with the OS (unless I am missing something flagrant, or worse yet it is a hardware issue). Grateful for anyone's advice.

verify within the app of bose the volume of the headset (if you have the option there)

Thanks I will look into it, but these are fairly simple bluetooth earphones, not aware of any app optionality.
I note the December ColorOS updates included a bug fix for "low sound when connected to AirPods2 headset".
Would imply this is a wider issue.
I came across the same problem with the WF-1000XM3. I managed to fix it by changing one of the touch functions of the earphones to volume control. Then I just adjusted the volume on the earphones to the max and now I have full volume.
