Disable Second mic - Sony Xperia ZR

Hi there ,
I have some problem with second mic i guess it causes weird noises during calls may be its not setup properly or may be problem with chip . Is there any way to just turn it off using root ?? .
The second mic is on the back (camera mic on experia zr c5502)
It works good with cm11 maybe because second mic does not work on cm11 but on the stock rom it gives problem . So awaiting fix for the second mic ..
Thanks .:good::good::good:

Can't wake up phone if some processes are running

Hello.
I am using IceDroid V4 with Zargloub's kernel g7b652eb. And my main problem is: if some processes are running (like downloading/uploading, playing music, phone calling etc.) and phone had gone to suspend, it is impossible to wake up it, untill all this processes will be stoped. Why is this problem still not fixed?
And another problem - sometimes my mic doesn't work. Sometimes, work perfectly. Why is this?
Sorry for bad English.

the problem with microphone, does it happen when you want to call somebody or receive a call?
you can activate speaker and disable it, than it works or you can try to push the vol up down button than it should work. I just can say that the first option with speaker is working. haven't tried the second one.
I tried your methods, enabled/disabled speaker and mic, changed volume by volume keys. But my mic still not work. My mother are angry. (Only she call me, and I must recall she from my another phone (se z530 =) everytime),
Problems begins after firs reboot with latest kernel. Before thet, mic works fine. And after that, it worked ony one time. I reflashed phone, tried 20th feb. kernel, but nothing changed. Can kernel damage mic?
UP. After updating to the 7th icedroid I still have problem with mic. I had not that on the first Zargloub's rom flash. So, I am thinking what my problem connected to drivers, because when mic enabled, others hear noise, and when mic disabled, there are no any sounds. Or my mic really dead?
You tried a different rom? If the problem then still excists your mic might be dead, if it works it might be a bad installation or kernel related maybe?

[Q] Boroken mic solution

Hi to all. Unfortunately the main mic of my nexus one is broke. But I discovered that the camera mic works. I was wondering if there is a way to set camera mic as main mic.
Yhank you
Happend to me couple times that mic stoped working and after like 4 reboots it came back again. I've already started to google for how-to replace but it came to life by it self, hopefully you will be lucky enought too.

Sound working for Alarm,Ringtone but not for music,youtube calls + Build Prop problem

I am on stock 5.0 ROM of ZR, Rooted n dual-recovery installed,
I am facing weird issue, whenever i gets call then i can hear ringtone, even alarm, also WhatsApp notifications but music or YouTube or any video does not give me sound, it only works on earphones,
even whenever i gets calls i can either speak on loudspeaker or with earphones connected, direct call is impossible for me
To figure this out i also tried factory reset but it didn't helped me, i also thought its hardware problem but sometimes EG. 1 out of 7 days music, calls, videos sound works WITHOUT earphones, so i am unable to figure out where is the problem ?
I strongly feels its earphones 3.5mm jack which is detecting it as i am already connected to earphones though i didn't..
So any way to solve it ? i tried playing with that jack also but no success,
Another problem is before flashing i changed my build prop to one samsung s6 device for some work purpose with buildprop editor, but even after factory reset i can see it didn't changed to stock build prop of sony zr device, why it happened & how to solve it also,
Please Help,
Thanks in Advance .
reboot phone, plzz
You must find a stock build prop and insert in to your system using root explorer or similar.. I know the S6 build-prop you are talking about and its meant for S6, which have other bits than ZR.. Don't mess with the build prop unless there are bits specific to ZR bro.. You should be ok once the build prop has been changed
i also have this problem, it looks like headphone jack problem, i also tried disassembling and removing headphone jack assembly but problem still exists in any roms above android 4.3 ( 4.1 and 4.3 and cm varient of same works perfectly. ( btw disassembling resulted in 2 times broken screen and useless headphone jack :crying: )
problem is phone thinks something is still in that whole :silly: in os above 4.3 , sony messed with software ( because if jack is faulty then it shouldn't work in older os too, and it should have worked when i ran phone without jack assembly )
your best bet is either use 4.3 or lower version or use "hf button widget" ( 70KB app ) to force audio through speaker. :highfive:
though proximity may not work.
I am seeing lots of of ZR user raising this this issue and unfortunately I have it too.
Your workaround is that install SoundAbout app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix&hl=en for you to enable the sound through speaker.
I have also Xperia ZR C5502 and facing this type of problem I noticed phone notification show sometimes headset connected but in really it isn't connected so incoming calls sound doesn't hearing from phones speaker.I must turn on loud speaker to hear phone's sound.Sorry for bad English.

Microphone not working in call. Please help.. :(

Suddenly my Microphone not working in call. People at the other end can't hear me at all (both normal or in speaker phone). However if I use wired headset or Bluetooth headset in call the everything is fine.It was working fine (I was at CF Rom sutl44 with exposed) then it suddenly stop working since a week ago.
My phone is Verizon Droid Turbo XT1254 bootloader unlocked with sunshine.
At first I thought that maybe my mic is dead but it is not. The voice recorder app (Hi-Q MP3 recorder) can still record from the mics without problem.
I read a lot of this issue and mostly because of software problem, so I tried all that I can think of.
I have reset my phone, even do a full wipe and start clean install but the problem still same.
I flash full stock odexed firmware (sutl44 or 49) with same result.
I flashed resurrection remix rom (the latest) still same problem.
I changed build prop as per some people suggest but still same problem.
From the hardware side, I disassembled my phone and clean mic holes, check mics condition, all seems fine. When I tried using the voice recorder it can register any sound or even touch so the mics are working and sensitive.
FYI, this phone has 5 mics, I checked and tested (with voice recording) them when I disassembled the phone. All are working fine.
I'm really desperate right now.. I love this phone and this is my main phone. I will appreciate any help or suggestions.
Maybe some ROM recommendation that may fix the mics problem.
I just flashed RR Marshmallow to see if I get any luck but unfortunately no.. mic still not working in call.
I tried to remember when this problem start to happen.. I guess it was after I install GravityBox in Xposed and start played around with the GB settings.
I have TWRP backup before I install that GB, I tried to restore the backup but still mic not working in call.
Did Xposed can change something very basic (like a 'driver' in windows) that can't be changed back by re-flash or load a TWRP backup?
Because somehow I think that this 'driver' or 'library' for mic in call is bad or gone.
Please.. any suggestion?
This might be a long shot, but I just had the same issue. After making a call using Google Hangouts, it started working again for me.

I have tried that since I mic is not working.. still problem
tertiary
Remove your tertiary microphone. It is the lower right when looking at the back. After this you must ground your audio output pin or you will get buzzing sound during recordings and conversation. This pin will be lower left out of the four where microphone was removed, there will be a chevron shape beside it which is a convenient ground location. This problem as far as I can tell happened after a security update from Verizon. I realize this sounds like a bogus fix but it made my phone work GREAT. This microphone is picking up your voice as well as the main mic and causing noise reduction to the point of no audio.

Since it's a software based issue, flashing a ROM different from stock firmware wouldn't fix it? He said he tried flashing Resurrection Remix.
BHB27 kernel's problem
I don't read your post carefully, so I don't know if your ROM and kernel is same to me, but I have similar problem in last few days. Finally, I find the problem is the custom kernel, the lastest BHB27 kernel, when I flash the old version custom kernel, the problem is solved. I hope this information can help you.
My ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mpg24-107-70-2-brazilian-6-0-1-t3426234
Kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-maxx/development/kernel-bhb27-kernel-t3207526
The new kernels have problem, so I flash back to BHB27-Kernel-V201-8-M.zip
i was able to solve the issue by plugging in a headset and then unplugging it. sometimes some dirt/junk get stuck in there, and the phone thinks that it is plugged in, thus muting audio out except through the jack.
I have the same problem, you fixed this problem in your phone?
I try RR (Android L, M and N), CRDROID (Android N) and NX (Android M). In all of this ROMs, I have the same problem.

can you give more details about the problem that you faced?
After nougat update in Moto M mic not working.
I was not ready to do a factory reset. But there is no other option to fix mic issue after nougat update.
So, last night kept back up of all important folder and run factory reset without automatic restore.
Now, everything looks fine to me. Incoming and outgoing calls are working fine.
So, I am suggesting everyone to do a factory reset, this is one and only option to fix mic issue.
Thanks,

Is my microphone broken.

Hi, since i upgraded to 7.1.1, my microphone does not work. Initially i thought it was a software bug but flashing old stock image does not help. My phone also fell down during this period. So i think my microphone is broken. The other party cannot hear me over calls on speakerphone either. The strange part is, there is no sound/video recording voice too. I was sure there were 3 microphone on this phone.
Anyhow, to the point, can i replace the microphone by normal soldering and use any other phone's spare part? Don't want to spend big on 1.5 + year old phone.
PS : with headphones i can talk normally.
Have the same problem here .. with n solution till now.
