Mic randomly does not work during phone calls. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried flashing both sense and Aosp Roms and I cannot figure out what the problem is. Sometimes when I get a phone call whether incoming or outgoing people complain about not being able to hear me. Other times it works perfectly fine though. Anyone have any ideas?

It could be noise cancelation bug. I read somwhere that sometimes it cancels all sounds, not just background noise
Can't think of a good sig

Thanks for your response. Is there any known way of dealing with said bug?

I think there are some mods that turn noise cancelation mic off, but I'm not sure. You can search for it, I don't have time right now

Alright thank you. I'll see what I can find

No sound diring calls

The second i try to make a call the sound on my phone stops. It was working last night. Not even speaker works. But it will work when not in calls. The volume is all the way up

My wife's did that too, ended up having to send it back for a replacement.

this may be a dumb guess, but, make sure you don't have an active Bluetooth headset/speakerphone connection. your in-call audio may be getting redirected to the headset wipeout you realizing it
i found it happens alot with the galaxy series. Looked it up and just like theirs it was fixed with a batpull =] thanks for the help and concern guys

In call sound quality

I love this phone, everything is great except the in call volume, its very quiet, even in a quiet atmosphere im struggling to hear the caller on other end, ive messed with all the settings but its just not loud enough. Do you think there will be a hack in the future to make it louder? Im seriously thinking of returning sadly because of this issue. I had the same issue with the x10i.

Mic fades/distorted

Has anyone else got complaints from the person on the other end of their call that we sound either really far away or distorted? I seem to get it allot and different locations.

Yep....i stopped caring at this point...
Try disabling voice privacy. Settings>Calls>Voice privacy. I'm using an EVO LTE so it might be different or might not

1- Watch that your pinky finger doesn't accidentally move over the microphone while you're holding it.
2- Check this out: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2262648
I currently have the team at HTC interested in this. The problem is their noise cancellation may be picking up your voice for just a moment while you switch ears, or move... then for up to 30 seconds, your voice is considered "background noise" and is filtered out mostly.
This frequency cut gives the impression that you're far away or in a tunnel. I'll update the main thread when I hear back definitively what their findings were, and if there will be a fix.
Workaround for now, is talk very consistently (don't alter volumes) and watch your positioning; don't talk to where the back of the phone could pick you up.

Call quality

So with 4.2.2 are you guys facing a problem with call quality? I can't hear a dam thing on a phone call. The Voice is muffled and it crackles too.
What do you guys think?

Wow fantastic. I don't know why my phone has a bad call quality with 4.2.2. Thanks for the feedback though

Yup, ARHD 10.0. Dirty flash from 9.4. The call quality isn't great.
Is there a way to check if HD calling is actually working? It is in the build.prop!

No idea. Anyone any clue on this?
I have noticed that if you have a background breeze or it is windy the call quality drops massively. It is reproducible by blowing on the mic near the camera... Ear piece goes very odd (breaks up/drops out) after that, recovers quickly though. The same doesn't happen if you blow the bottom mike!
Okay this issue has become really annoying. I dont think its the hardware but anyone facing this issue resolved it? The callers voice keeps fluctuating and times it just goes off. Sometimes if i dont hold the phone very close to my cheek the callers cant even hear me.
Yea this is really annoying. Tried loads of different ROMs and call quality remains terrible, all muffled and unclear. Way worse than my old Desire HD.
Anyone?

Have you tried to flash a new radio ?

I've had completely clear calls so I'm not sure where the issue resides.

Thanks for the post! I already had the same radio installed but I re-flashed it using this anyway. I tested the call quality once again, it's difficult to tell but there does seem to be some improvement, but it still doesn't sound as good as previous phones, or "crystal clear" like it should be according to many people. I will have to wait until I get a chance to properly test out a full conversation tomorrow and see if the voice is clearer.
Thanks again!

I did test the radio for like two calls. It seems like there is an improvement but I need some more time to evaluate. The microphone is the same if I don't stick the phone to my cheek people can't hear me properly. They say it feels like I'm talking from 10 feet away.

I found this YouTube review.
Sorry I can't post links, being a new user! But search "HTC One In-depth Review And User Experience" into YouTube, it's the video by Uoobe Vid, and skip to 13:06
This is how mine now sounds after the radio update. Is it not really as clear as it should be for a high-spec phone or is it just me? Calls are clearer on my friend's LG and cousins iPhone 5.
It has definately improved from before though.

Arzin, have you tried switch to speaker phone and back to handset a call? I've never had this, people have always said they can hear me fine, clear as normal. It could be the noise canceling at the back mistaking your voice for background noise when you don't hold the phone to your cheek.

Sound issue

I'm having a issue where I'm getting no sound from media. No videos or music plays from my speaker. I can't even hear the person on the other line but my alarm goes off and it's audible. My notifications are audible but nothing from other sources. Anybody know what might be wrong? I've flashed different ROMs, I tried to power cycle, and even did a rain dance.
Any help would be great!

Sounds like your phone thinks a headset is connected. Check the Jack is unobstructed. If it is, flash back to stock, factory reset and speak to Google / Moto about a replacement / repair.

Mine did that after I rooted it.
The solution that worked for me was to reflash. After that, I rooted it again and the issue didn't return.
