Internal Mic Problem - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm having problems with the internal microphone on my n1.
I've always had issues of people complaining they cannot hear me clearly. Also when I initially answer a phone call, my first "hello" is almost never heard by the person calling. These are however not my main problem.
Today nobody could hear me no matter if i called them or they called me. I rebooted the phone to no avail. However when I put it on speaker phone, they could hear me. When I voice search, it recognizes my voice just fine. So I don't know why it only doesn't work for voice calls.
Anyone ever encounter this?

Anyone have any ideas?

Send it back for repair?

[PROB] fuze-BT issue

OK, I'm pretty sure BT worked on the phone. Now, any time I answer from a BT device, the incoming caller is muted. He can hear me, I can't hear him.
If I transfer the caller to the phone (which btw I can hear him) and back again to the BT device, I can then hear him. If I answer the incoming call from the phone buttons, I can hear the caller on my BT device.
I must've spent like 30 calls to my phone (I'm ticked as I'm sure each one counted on my minutes) thinking of different ways to fix this.
I thought it was my BT headset, but it works on my Tilt. So I tried it in my car BT. It can't hear the caller either. So something is wrong.
If I turn off MS Voice Command (which by the way, I reg restored to before I modded it to work) my phone will make the sounds, I hear a beep in my ear. If I answer it form my headset, it works!
I could've sworn I had MSVC turned on ever since I got the unit. And I know I talked to people on my BT headset. Only thing is I don't know if I talked to someone after I did the non-att bloat hardreset.
Anybody have any ideas before I reset my phone?
had similar issue
i had the same problem and tried everything possible till i hard reset.....That fixed the problem initially.....but after i setup MSVC after a few calls it again started doing the same thing. I will be calling HTC tomorrow......will keep you posted unless someone else has an actual solution.
Update
After a couple of hours on the phone with HTC and ATT tech support....it all comes down to it being a hardware error. I went into a ATT store swapped my phone out and came back only to find the touch wheel does not work....went back got another one and finally one that works...bluetooth works fine and so does eveything else.....at least for now

I don't think its hardware that is broken in some units. At least I hope not. Someone else here said they got it to work after resetting the device only to have it break again later. For now, I have my fingers crossed that someone can fix this. Sounds like a BT stack or something that is bad.

Judging by the fact that you mention MSVC I am betting this is part of it. I have seen a ton of people complaining about it not working correctly. I think we need to start with that in the hunt.
True. Its either MSVC or BT stack. or both.
HTC Confirmation
I got a confirmation from that it is a software related issue with MSVC but they cannot release a fix until ATT approves it. The only way to speed this up is to have as many fuze users call either ATT or HTC and complain about this.
Try turning off Announce Incoming Caller. Supposedly this is the problem.
Agreed though, we MUST complain to AT&T and HTC on all issues - otherwise we all just sit here and ***** to each other and nothing happens cause they don't know how irked we are...

Lose Bluetooth/Speakerphone after call waiting decline

So basically,
If I'm on a call over bluetooth, or on speakerphone, everything works fine until I have another call come in. Whether I decline the call or let it go to voicemail, the current call I have goes to handset audio. I can bring it back to bluetooth or speaker phone by changing to to handset, then back to bluetooth or speakerphone.
This has been happening since I got the phone, and even after a factory reset. It's absolutely killing me. I wanted to see if anyone has had this happen to have the same issue.
So after going through a second phone and being able to replicate the issue, I learned that something happened with Skype that caused this to happen. I believe it to be something to do with having Google Voice automatically roll over to Skype when I don't answer my primary number. I have since disabled it and everything seems to be working fine!

In call sound problem

I have in call sound problems.
When I reboot I can sometimes place one call without problems for as long as I want.
Other calls after that I have no sound, can't hear the call tone and other parties can't hear me.
Also incoming calls, i hear the phone ring but when i answer the other party can't hear me and i can't hear the other party.
The settings for sounds in the accessibility menu and noise reduction etc were off and stayed off. (other forum tips)
I also tried numerous factory resets with no avail
Can someone give me a hint how to fix it?
I have stock 4.2.2 International version of the S4 Active.
Baseband I9295XXUBMK2
Build JDQ39.I9295XXUBMK2
Kernel 3.4.0-2015525
Headset
I tried a different option. I can call with my bluetooth headset.
When i switch to speaker the in call sound drops. giong back to headset will not activate in call sound.
Same Here
The same happens to me. Only the bluetooth option works every time. I have tried several firmware and kernel versions and nothing has changed.
There is a workaround that I could find but it is totally impractical: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2371034
In forums for models / ROMs with a lot more users than this one (Nexus / CM) people with 4.2.2-based firmware versions there are many posts describing what could seems to be the exact same problem, which they have been able to fix via baseband updates or custom patches, but that does not really seems to be an option for the S4 Active...

Same problem with my SGS4A. I was on i9295XXUBMK2, tried to update using the phone update option, which rendered my phone unusable. Flashed new stock ROM i9295XXUBMK3, now I can use the phone, although sound problem persists.
Making a call: reboot, call
Receiving a call: answer, hang-up, reboot, call back
Anyone with 4.3 that has this problem on SGS3, SGS4 or SGS4A?
Edit 21.8.2014
I had the speaker changed last week and so far no problems. I am slowly getting confident that I can rely on S4A as a phone also, not just tiny surf tablet.
I have same phone, never got this pb. However I got some SD card issues after updating to KitKat...
Partial solution... for me at least
Hi guys ,
having same issue, disabling 4G option solves my problem. But it-s impractic cause I want to use the 4g... in a huawei phone I solved same issue by disabling an option of "mobile data always on"
Don't know how it's related...
Same issue for me. I made lots of research with no results. Nobody knows...
same problem here with no solution yet

same problem with in call and out call .... searched a lot about solution and no solution yet
I had a similar issue with bluetooth calls. First call would be fine, but after that I couldn't hear the other person on the line and they couldn't hear me. It turned out to be some kind of incompatibility with the Google "OK Google" detection with Galaxy S4-based phones. If I disabled it from detecting "From any screen", this seemed to correct the problem. However the setting might return on application updates. I would recommend trying that and see if it makes a difference. If it's not that, then I don't really know how to help you. I moved on from that phone over a year ago and have been happier ever since.

People unable to hear me on voice calls.

Let me preface by saying I very very rarely take or make voice calls. This has been a persistent issue as far back as I can remember. As I make/receive very few voice calls I chalked this up to an issue on the other end. Is has become quite apparent it's my phone that's the issue. I've run a multitude of different roms. I never did try to see if one was improved over the other. I did read a while back about some mod to disable a noise cancelling Mic. Does anyone who suffered from this have any insight? I have the T-Mobile flavor m7.

Anybody else unable to hear anything when making/receiving calls?

Hey everybody, I'm experiencing a strange issue with the new Moto X. It is not my phone only, because my friend has the same phone with the same problem.
When receiving or making calls, I can't hear the other end. When I make a call, I don't hear the ringing and I don't hear the voice when somebody calls me. If I try again to make or receive a call, I will then be able to hear the other end.
I don't have many apps installed, nor am I a novice to Android, so I've tried many of the typical troubleshooting methods. I'm wondering if this is a bug that others may be experiencing and if anybody has discovered a fix or workaround. Thanks!
