Hi,
While calling people there have been several complaints that my voice is very low while on the phone has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks
Yes, a little bit, then I carry on talking and the other party manages to cope. I was assuming my case may play a little part in the problem, even though there is a small pin hole where the mic is.
My case is the official HTC One flip case... You?

Yes it's the same flip case. hmmm. I wonder if there is a way of improving it.
funny I dont get this even though the case covers the mic at the bottom of the phone.
I mentioned on another thread that there is a fault with every double dip flip case. The mic hole doesn't line up with the mic properly!

Dam. Might have to buy a new case.
The thing is I can see that the hole perfectly lines up with the hole from what I can see.

Which case you guys are talking about? The plastic cover which have 3 parts? Or the black flip case wich can let the phone stand up in landscape mode?

The case I am referring to with the issues is the flip case and NOT the one with three parts.
But im not even using a case right now, but im also getting people saying they can't hear me that good, sounds great on my end though.

Try to record your own voice with inbuilt recorder app than play and see. Check if you have case which covering Mic? Try to see if any residuel trap inside the mic hole try to use vaccume cleaner to suck from both Mic. Or try to talk with customer service number and talk very softly and ask if operator can hear your voice properly?, restart the phone and do the same and check if anything improved? Try to record your voice using camera and check. Hope this all step help

I'm having the same problem, I have narrowed it down to being the bottom mic, When in a call, using speaker phone the back mic is on and people can hear me. When headphones are in again, people can hear me, again though the back mic. But when I take out the headphones, and turn speaker off, people can't hear me, unless I'm talking directly into the bottom mic, but words get cut short. Hearing what it sounds like I'm thinking it's noise canalization going on..

Having the same exact problem. Using the voice recording app - the volume of a recording using the bottom mic is woefully low compared to using a headset to record.
When using the speaker to answer calls - doesn't exibit this behavior as bad due to the other external mic.
Everyone that is calling me is complaining that they can barely hear me and I think it has nothing to do with the carrier, but all to do with the phone.
My partner's phone is also doing this. Every time she answers a call the other person can't hear her and she almost has to yell. She does have the HTC Genuine case but I've tested calls without this on and still the same thing.
It is the Silver 32GB HTC One ordered through Handtec.
I guess you're talking about the official case which can hold up the phone like the case comes with GSIII ?
I saw two thread complaining the same issue in another forum. However, I have a similar case (but not THIS case) and don't have this problem.
why put on case on HTC One? geez
(Don't mean to troll)
bad mic issue

e: it was a noise cancellation + hole blockage deal for me. seems alright now
I just tested mine and I can hear myself loud and clear.
people I call tell me it's like I am sitting next to them when I call

I have had other people tell me they can hear me, and I would move the phone and then they would say I'm perfectly clear.
I'm talking moving it a couple inches farther from my mouth. But then speakerphone works fine. I happen to believe it's cancellation taking us out as well.
Simple enough question. Several sites say it does (see for example this) while several other sites say it doesn't (e.g. this). Why the conflicting information?

Under the grid at the bottom there is 1 speaker. You hear sound from right side because it's made like that.

I would assume that's to do with the positioning of the microphone. It's like the iPhone 4 and 4s, two 'speakers' at the bottom but one was really a mic.

So you are saying the Z1 have two Speakers?

No not at all, I noticed a while ago that if you cover the left hand side of the speaker it affects the sound, covering the right side doesn't. So it could well be there is a microphone under the mesh, one sides a speaker, one sides a mic.
Or it could be my speaker is buggered like the OP.

so it seems big grid is for design and also protection of both speaker and mic.

Maybe depends on the stereo track playing?

Noticed that too..
Maybe because the top speaker doubles as an earpiece for phone calls HTC reduced the sound to not blow it or hurt your ears when you turn up the volume
Hey guys,
Just bought the Moto G 2014, and I'm loving it.
I was curious to know about the location of microphone of the phone. I see a hole at the top of the phone, that's the secondary mic, I don't see the primary one. Just out of curiosity, I think this phone possesses two microphones.

It's under the bottom speaker grill perfect for where the mouth goes while on the phone.

Just looked at the iFixit teardown and the microphone is a small silver rectangle, there are two, one at the top and one at the bottom, the microphone is just to the left of the USB port on this picture https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/tEKiSY13HxpZMrF4 and just to the right of the headphone jack in this picture https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/JYApv2XLW6UkJ3nK you can also see a small hole to let the sound in for the bottom microphone in the 2nd picture.
Hope that helps.

So, microphone is integrated into the main-board?

Yeah, you can see both the microphones in the photos in my post above, although I've just noticed I've put right when I meant left so I'll correct that now.

No they are not, the speakers are in the plastic shell, you can see both speakers in this photo, with one of them being lifted out: https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/igi/lDnRtAS24yNibhK1 the microphones are on the mainboard.

Hi,
There are two speaker grills in the bottom of the device. Do they both works or only the right one works and the left one dummy ?
For my device right one is working, is it natural or my device is faulty ?

One of those "speaker grills" is actually a microphone, not a speaker. So you're good...

@Lakino, this is why!
Me and Lakino was discussing this as we were figuring out that no sound was coming out of one...
Also we discussed how great the Pixel 2 XL's speakers were and how much I miss them...

That makes sense. Guess we do need a mic somewhere down there.
Ok, next question. @Lughnasadh
There is a tiny pin prick hole on the top left hand side edge -- as you look at the phone. What is that hole for then? I thought that might have been the input mic.

If I'm thinking of the hole you are describing, that's a microphone. There are 3 microphones. A top one, a bottom one and a rear-facing one.

The one you are describing might have to do with noise cancellation, but I'm not sure. Just a guess. The rear-facing one may have to do with video audio.
