[Q] Microphone problem - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am using the titan prime rom and this problem has persisted through all other roms as well. It just happened one fine day and i have no clue about how it happened. My microphone can't detect my voice when i speak into it normally. I have to hold the microphone side to my mouth and shout at my phone so that the other person can hear me.
Note- This only happens with the dialler and whatsapp calls work perfectly with no issues( so this is not a hardware issue)
Please help me

I am also facing the same issue, during call the mic is very low and for whatsapp calls works fine. Not sure what do. Any help is much appreciated.

[Q] microphone problem

Hi everyone,
I'm experiencing a problem. During any call my mic goes off. I can hear the other person but they can't hear me. I've already gave a factory reset, I've already changed the firmware but the problem remains in any firmware. I've tried to use the mic in other applications such as a voice recorder, google search, swype, and they all captured the sound perfectly. The microphone works fine except in telephone app. Samsung said that I have to change the main board. But it is barely new. Besides that this doesn't sounds like a hardware problem...Does anyone have any insight about this issue or how can i get my mic back? Should i recompile the code from telephone app, something like this...?
just for the records... newbie here.
Tks in advance!
there are 2 mics on note. Top and bottom. I think the recorder apps use the top mic and calls use the bottom mic. could be a hardware problem with the mic below.. Not 100% sure though.

Mic issue possibly?

My Optimus 4X has a bit of an issue
Sometimes when I call people they can hear themselves, this seems to happen a few times
Also the speakerphone no longer works, I can puit a call to speaker and then find i cant hear anyone even when flicking back to normal
When I use a wired headset all is fine!
Currently running Mahdi ROM
Should I buy a busted 4X and replace the Mic or try a new ROM/Kernal first?
Have you solved your issue?
My P880 mic doesn't work for nothing, no Ok Google, no Shazam recording, and no calls (if I put it in speaker phone, other people can hear me). Can you help solve this? Can't really afford a new phone and this is quite annoying, and kind of a dealbreaker

Microphone cutting out during Speakerphone calls

Dear all,
As stated in the subject line, I am experiencing issues with the mic while on speaker. So this is happening whenever I used the speakerphone. It will work fine(ie the other side can hear me talk) but after awhile, it will stop working(the other side cannot hear). I will then have to take it off speaker and put it back on. That seems to work. This happens during normal mobile calls and also whatsapp calls. Unfortunately, when trying to record something with Audio Recorder, I haven't hit that issue, and it was recording for more than 4 minutes.
Has anybody else run into this problem? I am running a completely stock Note 5 out of the box, on 5.1.1.
Thanks in advance!
Best,
Ben

Same issue here, I'm using note 5 duos N9208 64gb. Please somebody help us...I think is some software issue
Edited my other post, putting the information here where it belongs. I found out how to replicate this bug on a SM-N920I with Android 5.1.1 thanks to a rooted ROM, 3.10.95-SkyHigh_TW_v3.9 UpInTheAir #1.
Turning on speaker AFTER a call connects mutes your own microphone, with no subsequent fix by turning on/off speaker during that call.
Turning on speaker BEFORE a call connects (i.e. you have to make the call) does not mute your microphone.

hi
Found your issue interesting and decided to test according to your theory (set out above )
As i use speaker quite a lot when making calls.
Firstly i have a N920 C , not rooted ,stock Rom .Tested calls speaker (numerous times ) with my Note5 and Note 3 .
Repeated , test after call connects and before calls connect etc etc .
.Well i was relieved , that speaker works 100% .No issues.
So its seems to me,
your bug could be limited to certain Roms or software ..? or did you perhaps use Package Disabler to disable some processes and now have a knock on effect ...no ?
hope you can sort issue out .!
Good luck .
Thanks for your reply and thank you for testing it out! I didn't use Package Disabler at all. I'm trying to find out how to go back to Stock ROM, but the baseband version of N920IDVU2AOKC is hard to find and I have, too late, stupidly realized I don't know how I can do it without having the stock ROM to start with.
Edit: Google is my friend. Samsung-firmware website...
Edit 2: Google is NOT my friend. That was a premium cash grabbing page. Link removed.
Edit 3: Google can be my sometimes buddy. http://www.galaxynote5update.com/ga...firmware-australia-and-new-zealand-singapore/
Edit 4: Fine. I'll use Smart Switch since nothing else is not pay locked. :|
Same issue with MM rom...

Microphone doesn't work

Hey folks,
I had the problem with the stock ROM and now I have the similar problem with jackeagels 5.5.1 (SM-G800F).
My microphone works sometimes and sometimes doesn't. People I want to call can't hear me. Eventually after a few calls they do. This is a state I don't want to stay in so does one has any idea what the problem could be? A while ago I pulled some dust out of the mic hole (with a needle) but that doesn't seem to be the problem here
Mines always been dust in the hole. Get compressed air can and blast it. Very annoying.
Hey Guys!
I have a similar problem but only when I use the internal mic, the problem does not occur when I use my headset.
Sometimes, the people I'm calling say that they can hear me very quietly.
Mostly, they say that they hear a constant noise or sound like a "bom bom bom" which is in the background. I can't hear this sound myself and as I said it does not occur when the headset is plugged in.
Any help is appreciated!
Regards, Jens
What phone model? What OS?
The main mic is at the bottom, near USB port. Recording a voice note without earphone, of course, works? The mic hole is dirt or blocked somehow?

Thanks for your reply.
It is a G800F with CyanogenMod 13.
I tested the issue after my initial post with the voice recorder in detail.
So the sound is a kind of buzzing like in the early days of mobile phones when you put your phone near a radio and you get an incoming call.
When I record with the voice recorder, then I hear the buzzing. It is stronger when I say something and quiter when I record silence. Then I also made the same test with my headset, and, unfortunately the buzzing also occured. The intensity was bit lower I think but the sound was there.
Unfortunately, I never tested it with the stock rom. Could this problem be related to a software problem? I'm not sure if I backup my CM and install a stock rom for testing...
Thx!
Yeah, the best way to mak sure it's not software is backup and going back to stock. If it still doesn't work then you have a hardware issue almost certainly...

Microphone problems

Hello, I'm having two separate issues with calls on stock ROM 4.1.3.
The first issue is during calls on speaker phone. The phone uses the back mic next to the camera which makes the audio really muffled and hard to hear for the other person to the point where it's impossible to have a normal conversation. I'm not sure if this is a bug or intended, is there any way to change this?
The second issue is that the microphone doesn't seem to work when I plug in a headset. The headset I'm using is a degrauss labs sabotage royale and it works fine on other phones.
The apps I've been testing this in is Skype, WhatsApp and Messenger. Any ideas? These issues almost forces me to return the phone even though I love the rest of it
