Mic muted for apps and/or voice recognition - RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I would like to know if someone here has or had the same issue I have.
When I try to use anything about voice command, voice search, or voice recognition for message writing it's like if the mic is muted. Absolutely nothing appends and it's clear that no sound are detected by the software.
I have the same issue with a software that should allow me to record my voicemail greeting message.
But at the other side the mic works perfectly well for phone calls, and when I records video.
For the Device info:
Bootloader unlocked
Rooted
Homemade fastboot 81.5.40002.Retail.en.EU - 4.0.4
And rickwyatt AIO Boot mod V3
I'm looking if I have a app that can mute the mic but I find anything, and I don't find a way to unmute it ...
If someone has a idea, you'll be welcome
Thanks

ringtones only coming into bluetooth headset, how do i stop this?

I have a Tilt and am currently using the latest Hyperdragon III rom, but this has happened with several of the most recent roms.
it used to be that whenever i got an incoming call i would have both ms voice command announce the call through my bluetooth head set, while the phone would vibrate and play the ringtone through its normal speaker.
now, for some reason, in this latest batch of roms, i'm getting both the msvc announcement and the ringtone through my headset and the phone only vibrates. if i turn the headset off,then the phone rings like normal.
this gets to be a problem when i have the headset in my pocket, i start to miss calls!
has anyone else had this problem?
edit: also, something that's bugged me forever, the T key seems to always miss presses. i have to really jam on it to get it to register. if i'm not thinking about it, i'll send out texts and emails with no Ts in them at all! is there a software fix to this or is it a hardware issue?

Hardware. As to BT, I've always had that behavior (all sounds in headset), so don't have much to say, seemed normal to me.
I had that same problem, but I used the MSVCtoggle.cab and it switches it from headset to phone and vice versa.
I believe you need to go to "Voice Command" under settings > system, then select "Notifications"
There are settings that allow changes in how notifications are handled via your speaker and/or your BT.
Hope this helps.
The problem isn't the calls being announced via bluetooth, it's the fact that the phone now only rings into the bluetooth headset.
in previous roms, it used to be that when a call would come in, my phone speaker would ring and i would also receive the MSVC announcement via the bluetooth headset
now, in newer roms, the phone speaker does not ring, and i got both the ringtone and the msvc announcement via the bluetooth headset.
i don't want msvc to announce the calls via the phone's speaker
same thing happens with messages and the announce new messages feature. I get the sms read to me in my bluetooth headset, but the new sms tone also plays through the headset.
edit: if i turn off call announcements, then the phone rings through the regular speaker. i get no call announcements, but hearing the ringtone is much better! i'm using msvc 19965
same problem, please help , it is geting to be verry annoying (((
thank you
p.s. using tilt, original rom, voice comman 1.6.19214
very annoying voice comman problem
same problem, please help , it is geting to be verry annoying (((. if i take check mark out from phone checkbox, under setings voice command then it rings at a phone, but i cant use voice command to dile phone numbers. i say call "name " it finds it but doesn't ask < call "name" > , so it defits the porpose of voise comand.
thank you

someone got isecretary 4.6 working on htc diamond touch?

Hi,
Is here allready someone who got isecretary working well on the diamond touch as an answering machine?
i cant get it working right.
it records the incoming calls, but also put it over the speaker. when i bring the speaker volume down, i dont hear my welcome record at the other phone... so is here someone who get it working like you record a welcome message, when someone calls you, isecretary picks up the call, plays your welcome message ONLY to the caller, and then records the callers message, without playing it over the speaker? if so, how did you do that?
much thanks,
Bart

Did you get this working?
hi,
i still dont get it working wel on my diamond... the site is allready offline for a wile. the file of the latest version is online at:
http://www.freeware4mobile.com/Software/Windows_mobile/Phone/iSecretary/iSecretary4_6.cab
first i was able to get it answering and recording, but it played it over my speaker, but this time i tried it again, he even doesnt pick it up... but at the internet a saw positive storys about it...
would be nice if anyone had good experiences with it... or if the developer would go on with the program ...
allready some who get this working OR got an other program?
In Utopia, this software would do the following
1) Intercept an incoming call
2) Tap into the mic system and playback a predesignated audio file such that no one else but the caller can hear it
3) After the message has played, it then taps into the ear piece system and records the caller's message. Again, no one else but the phone can hear this.
4) Provide you a notification for the message you have received.
In reality, this is not possible. Here's why
1) Telecom providers would lose a pretty significant amount of money that they charge you for voicemail services.
2) I'm pretty sure that the above reason is why a lot of hardware manufacturers don't allow intejcting an audio stream into the mic system.
This is why you never get the result you want with all the "phone answering machine" software out there.
The way these programs work is they turn on your speakerphone and play the message loud so that the mic can pick it up and your caller hears the message.
In the same way, when the caller talks back it plays it loud and the mic again picks up the sound and records it.

[Q] Bluetooth headset-initiated voice dial?

I searched and found only old information from last year on this...
Does anyone have bluetooth headset-initiated voice command dialing working with their Captivates?
If so, please tell me exactly how you are accomplishing this -- what bluetooth headset, what ROM, what apps, your procedure for initiating a call from your bluetooth headset.
I'm not interested in any procedure that involves looking at or even touching the phone itself. I need a solution that will let me place a call to the contact of my choice solely from my bluetooth headset -- just push the button on the headset, tell it who to call and reliably make the call to the contact and phone type (mobile, home, etc.) that I tell it.
I am currently using the new Andromeda ROM but would be very interested in hearing what new ROMs do this well.
Thanks!
I am running Paragon ROM and I am able to make calls through my car stereo via Bluetooth voice dialing. Leave the phone in my pocket, hold a button down on my stereo until the voice asks for a command, I then say "Call Contact". If they have more than one number it asks if I want to call them at home work or mobile. I say "Mobile". The voice then repeats "Call Contact mobile"
I am running Paragon RC5.1, but Bluetooth voice dialing has worked for me since I first flashed with RC3.

Switch between microphones

Hello everyone ?. It's my first question here. Before starting, i have to admit your great contribution to make Android easier and comfortable. Thank you for that. As for the question:
My pixel 2 xl phone's main microphone is broken but it's secondary microphone is working. That is, during video shoots or voice recordings upper microphone works fine, but the bottom microphone doesn't pick up any sound (completely dead). I'm unable to use voice typing and voice assistant, send voice memos in WhatsApp and messenger as well.
Is there any way to permanently redirect the primary microphone to the secondary one, so that for ALL calls, voices and applications will be redirected and the secondary (upper) microphone is used to pick up sound?
I'm having the same issue as well. Hope someone can help us.
Can't help specifically because I don't have this phone. What I've heard is that blowing into the bottom speaker sometimes makes the mic work again. Or turning on the speakerphone (loudspeaker) during a call might help. I though Google was repairing services with this problem.
I would guess that it's not possible to force the video mic to act as a primary mic due to software design restrictions. But if it's possible to change the focus, I would look for a custom setting that tells the software which mic to use.
See this link to get an idea how to look for a custom setting: https://forum.joaoapps.com/index.ph...ings-to-use-in-autotools-secure-settings.210/
