I'm running v20l stock (rooted) and am experiencing a ton of noise (almost like the phone is on speaker when I make a call. The other person can hear almost everything in the room (every little noise) almost like the speaker on the LG is too sensitive. I'm not sure if I did something wrong or missed a step or what I can do to resolve.
I bought this phone and it had Cyanogen nightly on it and I had some issues and wanted to go back to retail stock but this can't be the norm?
I'd value any advice as to what I can install / do to fix it or alternatively, if there are good rom/kernel bundles that seem to do a better job, I'd appreciate the advice.
Thanks!
Isn't there a simply toggle to lower the volume of your mic ?

Not that I've been able to find. I'm running Cyanogenmod now as well but there dont' seem to be options anywhere for that.
Maybe this can help you:

Hi
I am new to this, I have rooted my SGM, installed CWM, tried various CM ROMs including ver 7.1, 7.2 RC1 to RC5.1.
None of this would play sounf through the speaker while playing a recorded clip from the camera?
Is this a bug or has anybody tried this ?? or is it just me bad luck??
Just to confirm that Iflashed enamoN ROM V4 and it played the same file through the speaker, so I dont think there is anything wrong with the phone.
any help??
thanks in advance
i think your sgm has a problem
not the rom!!!
Mostly Hardware Problem
I do not think hardware is a problem as flashing emanoN rom does produce sound on speaker.
And everything else like Alarm, Ring, other notification, everything comes from the speaker, even youtube media comes from the speaker, its only when the media recorded from the camera does not come?
I am sure it is not a hardware problem.
Hello fellow XDA members
Normally I wouldn't post anything as I would have solved my problem via searching, but I could not find anything relating to my problem. Anyway here goes.
My Xperia Z does not produce sound from the loudspeaker on STOCK based roms, other roms such as CM11 and MIUI work perfectly fine. which rules out a hardware fault. The problem is rather weird. Specifically, it is like the phone thinks the earphone is plugged in, therefore all the sounds are being routed to the earphone port and not the speaker. Notification tones sometime work but it its very soft or have like a crackling sound. (Note sound works fine through the earphones). This obviously has an impact on voice calls, the only way I can talk without a headset is via bluetooth headset or to put the loudspeaker on, which then the person comes through the loudspeaker.
This lead me to believe it has something to do with Smart Connect(Liveware), where once the earphone is plugged in the music automatically starts playing, so therefore the app may think the earphone is plugged in 24/7. I deleted the app but still the problem was there.
As I said this is only apparent on stock roms. I flashed unmodded stock via flashtool(4.3) and still same problem, other stock based roms I have tried include Existenz v1.5.5(4.4.2) and BlackZ(4.4.2). However on CM11 roms(4.4.4), MIUI(4.2.2 - 4.4) and ColorOS(4.2.2) the sound works completely fine, except on CM11 the mic randomly stops working but that may be another bug entirely.
I am completely stumped on this and any help would be appreciated. Thank you

1- Sorry if I posted in the wrong thread.
2- I have PureXaudio installed, but it does not help, I have also tried every other sound mod but since it does not change where the sound is outputted through it doesn't help(except my music sounds cooler )
3- As I said in the original post I have searched for it and no-one has this particular problem, there are similar ones though but those have been resolved with flashing stock. But with the stock rom the problem still persists.

I installed the official Cyanogen 12.1-20151212-NIGHTLY-yuga on my wifes Xperia Z, when she use the phone and I speak to her the sound from her microphone is a bit crakcing. Not as clean as it was with the original Xperia android version. Also if she use the the big speaker when we talk it is very hard to hear what she is saying.
Also in the big speaker it crackles.
Is there any way to fix this?

you could try installing a mod...
I used to use my Mi9T Pro to record audio with my Rode Lavalier GO external microphone using a very good app called RecForge II Pro while I was on official MIUI. It worked perfectly with no problems at all.
Recently I switched to LineageOS 17.1 (Un-official build [04/06/20] - fw. 12) and I just found out that the external microphone volume is extremely low now. It does work, there are no cracks or problems in audio, but it's extremely low. I had to add +15dB to even hear anything, but that's not a solution to this problem.
Could you please help me with this? Point me to the right direction on how to fix this?
Thanx.
i guess its a common issue on every custom rom now... i am still looking for solutions
