Lower Mic Not Working. Callers Can't Hear Me. PLEASE ADVISE!

I don't know what happened. All of a sudden callers can't hear me while I can hear them. I did some research and it looks like the lower mic is out. When I try to record my own voice I can barely hear it. Speaker phone worked with callers for a while, but now all of a sudden they can't hear me on speaker phone either.
I'm thinking it might have been water damage or my cat did knock my phone off my bedside table twice, but I don't really know the cause for sure.
I can't afford to buy another phone right now. I really need to find a way to fix this.
Please advise. All suggestions welcome!

Are you under warranty?

Afraid not.

I hope someone can chime in with info on how to help... you may want to JUST FOR KICKS try flashing a different ROM and pray it is a software error...although I doubt it.
Guess a solution...absent having to do hardware repair... is use a Bluetooth or wired headset
Does anyone know if the mic is hardwired into the mobo or if it is an aux attachment?

Please add info about your phone, ROM, rooted? better would be screen shot your about phone page and attach it. here is what I did to my Note N-7000 when it had such problem.
When I found out this problem my phone had ICS 4.0.4 fully rooted with safe kernel. First thing I did, backed up all my apps (Titanium Backup root), contacts (Super backup App.) etc. Then did a Factory reset from settings. Tested my phone by talking to my wife in other room, was working fine. Then I looked into apps I had installed and removed I did not really wanted. And it worked.
So I would suggest you to do same before thinking of flashing any other ROM if you are happy with the one you got.

Thanks for responding!
I was on a custom JB rom (RocketRom) ... wiped everything and switched to one of the newer ICS leaks ... (AllianceRom) Didn't make any difference, unfortunately.
I'm thinking it has to be hardware, and I'm going to have to open this sucker up and see what I can see.

Newer ICS leaks?
ICS has final released version... you installed alliance ICS? Or the JB leak?
Jb =4.1
ICS = 4.0

im betting its your dock cable...... it houses the mic also.. not a wallet breaker if its installed by a quality shop either... or brave it and diy... either way im banking it fixes your problem...

Ah yes, of course you are correct. I mixed the two up in my post. Was on ICS, now on JB.
Strange thing ... A short while after switching to JB, I noticed the the voice recorder function is working again. It was not before, but now I can actually hear recordings I make. Also Speaker Phone is working again, so callers can hear me as long as I use that option.
Youtube, yes, that is my next option.

You may want to try a gingerbread ROM for kicks

CM10 10-20130310-NIGHTLY Audi Issues

Hi,
Just wanted to know if anyone else besides me are having problems with CM10 cm-10-20130310 build?
- The speaker volume is low, call volume is low
- bluetooth skips, disconnects and connects randomly
- SD card mounting -(known issue)
When I play music or other audio the volume is fine.
thanks!

I get the skipping... I found if you turn the processor minimum speed to 384 it happens less frequent (on slacker radio anyway)
The random disconnects only happen when I try to switch song manually.. and not all the time...
For call volume... I just turn the radio way up. (21 for music... 40 for calls)

I think he's talking about connecting it to a radio through aux or something...and raising the volume on the radio...
But these audio issues are well-known...so you're not alone
Sent from my HTC PH39100 using Tapatalk 2

Ah ok, yea I guess It so.
I didn't know the audio was much of an issue, because it wasn't listed in the list of bugs..
or perhaps I didn't have a deep look in the latest release.
I switched from the Holics ROM and now I don't feel like going back to the Holics ROM.....
Can't afford to carry a big radio around.. ha ha :silly: Guess I will have to wait for more updates and fixes..

Yeah the rom has some bugs I'd recommend switching to another till the problems get fixed. If you dont hollics, try broked rom or pacman thou with broked rom in call volume is a little low.Have you tried fixing permissions in recovery to see if something changes?Sometimes it weirdly fixes those things.

permissions with recovery? what do you mean by that?
Can you please explain, thanks!
Horlics was the rom I was using prior to the CM10 update, the most stable rom by far.
I just like the 4.1 GUI much more.
I am going to try the paranoid now and see how it works .. :/

If you run recovery and go to the development section or advance section, depending on the recovery you have, theres an option for fixing permissions and that should fix force closes and other issues.

Do not use CWM to flash that rom or you'll get bootloops and try it its a very good rom.

From all the jb roms I've tried, that rom is the most stable and has few bug compared to the other jb roms. Bluetooth skipping no, at least that I've noticed but audio only in call vol that is relatively low but not unbearable.

All of the jb Roma have no bugs at all other than incall audio and maybe Bluetooth. The user causes the problem, not the rom

Beats Audio

Is it possible to port/build HTC One's stock Beats Audio to an AOSP rom? Some have pointed me to DSP manager and/or Codex Sound, but I find those to be far inferior to the stock Beats....no comparison whatsoever. Any help on doing this would would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone at least know where to find the files in which Beats Audio resides?

You can use ViperFX or something like that. I forgot the name. Hold up... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
Yea, that's the link. That MOD is pretty good when it comes to equalizing music, but it's not good for speaker equalizing. Mainly because it's suited for all phones so it doesn't want to blow out phones with weaker speakers. LoL!!
Sorry, but I can't help you with your 2nd question on where Beats is located. What if it's in the HTC Framework? I'm not too sure how all that works, so I'm just given ideas on location.

Here is the 'Beats' apk and also it decompiled.

Google DSP manager beats settings and you can set a custom EQ to sound like Beats. I personally used that when I was running CM and it sounded just as good as the stock.

That might be a waste of time as the stock Beats files probably require Sense files to work off of.
Sent from my HTC One running InsertCoin 2.1.0

Thanks to you all for your advice! Much appreciated! I tried adjusting DSP and codex and I can't get it to sound nearly as good as Beats on a Sense rom even with suggested settings that are meant to replicate Beats. I listen to a lot of music & LOVE beats; I also LOVE the customization and freedom AOSP roms deliver but have never been able to get the best of both worlds yet. I'll try awesomebeats and the Beats apks....and if all fails, I'll try killman's suggestions again and report my findings. Thanks again all!

Hi, its been said that the Google Nexus edition comes with beats as standard, so whenever it plays sound it is benefitting from beats. Obviously we won't know until its out but there's something to think about for the future
Because AOSP does not have the beats interface standard there is no switch like sense

Louder speaker volume

Has any one found a way to make the speakers louder yet? I tried the loud patch, doesn't change much. Volume sits around 81db, I am running renovate 4.1 & EX 3.4. I notice power amp works to up volume a bit, but I listen to Google Play and slacker, none of the apps on the play store work that I have found.

Not sure as to what would help your situation there, but I am running AOSP Android 4.3 on mine, and I actually have to keep mine from playing full volume, because it starts distorting, and I don't want to blow the speakers. The only thing I did to it was to as that purexaudio mod on mine, and it is really loud. That might help out a bit. There is a forum on that, I'll have to dig around for it. It's also a really good mod for audio quality. Worked well for me.

Currently there is a mod to make the speakers louder on 4.1.2 builds but not on the 4.2.2 builds

Any mod for stereo speakers?

Any mod you guys aware which makes ear piece also work for music?
@magura320 modified mixer_patsh_tasha.xml to achieve this and attached are the files..

I'm interested in such a mod too. I had it on my nexus 5 and it was pretty cool.

The main reason we buy op3/op3t is because we dont want to see touchwiz anymore. It will never happen, never in tousand years. In your entire life you will never see a touchwiz based rom running on a non samsung device. To me its not even a rom. Its bloat, system framework raping and power abuse of samsung. And please don't ask this anywhere anymore. Thanks. Didnt want to sound rude.

Y u have to be rude bro?? Its my wish whether to have touchwiz or not. I like it because i used S7 EDGE. I didnt find any false hope in my S7 EDGE.. because no one can say that touchwiz is worst in S7 EDGE. Most of us thinking in the same way as we were in the past. If u say samsung immediately everyone say it ll hang, dont have better batty like that. Thats the reason everyone having that same feel even now. But that era is over. If u have to pick any phone next to OP3T it should be S7 EDGE. U cant deny that. Even it has better camera though.
Now i bought OP3T. OP is a beast. I am thinking of beast with another great software. That's y i asked help from someone. If u r not willing to help just help me how to create custom rom.
If u r not happy with that just be calm let others to talk.

Hi, my 3T is on OOS 3.5.4 with Magisk v9. But I can't seem to have the mod working after flashing it and also will there be an app after flashing the zip file?
