Hearing own voice during call while using earphone mic - Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact Questions & Answers

Hi all!
I noticed that when I use any earphone/headphone with a mic, I can hear my own voice during a call. How can I disable it? I'm quite sure it wasn't like this before, but I don't remember doing anything (and can't find the option either), I find it really annoying.
It's only when I use the caller. If I send an audio using whatsapp, for example, it works okay.
Thanks!!

I have Sony headphones and can't hear any such feedback, have you tried different headphones?

Yes I've tried differents headphones.
It happens when my mouth is close to the mic. If I touch the mic, I can hear the "touch" as well. Maybe it's happening since the last update, but I'm not sure
(maybe it's normal? can you try touching the mic while calling to hear if there is a sound?)

I only have one set of headphones that have a mic built in and no, no feedback at all. In fact I can't hear my voice at all, which is a little odd, but then again they are noise cancelling.

I see.
I'll keep checking the phone options then. I tried with the same headphones in another phone, and it works just normal, so it's something with my device.
Thanks for the help!

[Help] Mic doesn't work in calls

i can use voice recording or voice to text just fine. i can also make phone calls in speaker phone mode just fine. but when i turn speaker phone off the person on the other end can BARELLLLLY hear me
ugh so i've been trying to test it
i left myself some voicemails using the phone
if i talk normal i hear nothing with an occasional click or something. if i take my finger and rub it on the noise canceling mic while talking i can sort of hear myself talking but its really low and garbled sounding, and of course if i switch to speakeprhone then i hear myself fine
this sucks, its obviously some kind of software issue. does the phone not use the secondary mic for noise canceling during speakerphone? that would explain the issue i guess.

The mic on my first N1 was broken so it might be a hardware issue.
its either software or the secondary mic is broke and is causing it to filter out everything, because the main mic works great on speakerphone
this sucks

[Q] Any HTC One user has this weird problem?

I've just started using HTC One, and I've found a strange issue.
Call quality of the One is great normally, clear voice and good noise cancellation. But when I plug in my headphone (without mic), people can't hear my voice anymore. If I unplug it, they can hear me clearly again.
Do you have this problem as well? Any solution?
Thanks!
You plug a headphone without mic, and still expect people to hear you???
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
If you plug a headphone without a mic, phone still uses it's own mic to send your voice so you should talk closely to it's bottom where the mic is.
Never used a headphone with this phone before.

[Q] Audio Loopback Issue

I have noticed that when using my phone to make calls, I can hear myself through the phones headset speaker. It also happens if I am using earbuds that have a mic. I have not had the other party of the call mention anything.
It just seems to be on my end that I can hear myself through the phones speaker and occasionally the mic does not work, I reboot the phone and the mic works again.
Not sure if this an actual phone issue or just maybe something wrong with the ROM.

Mine has did it twice that I can remember, never looked into it, not yet at least, but it's not just you.

You're using the C6606?
If so, then it might be a hardware issue. Since we would be using two different ROMs.

[Q] Problem with speaker and microphone.

I'm running the latest version of SlimLP on 5.1.1. The issue also happens on stock firmware too. Here are the problems:
1. The speaker doesn't work, except extremely rare circumstances when I hear a notification, usually from FB Messenger.
2. The microphone doesn't pick my voice up during calls, forcing me to use an integrated mic on headphones or loudspeaker.
3. The earspeaker doesn't seem to work.
4. When I record video or something, the sound is picked up, so obviously the microphone is still functional.
I've used the Xperia diagnostics app, and the microphone isn't deemed functional on that, the ear speaker doesn't work at all, but the loudspeaker works perfectly fine. I really don't know what to do. I don't think this is a hardware issue with any of them except the earspeaker. Anyone know fixes? I've tried pressing down on the areas but that doesn't seem to have an effect.

I also had a similar issue on another Xperia and I simply changed my firmware. Most likely I must have downgraded it. However, there is an app called SOUND ABOUT
That should fix the sound problems. Quote back in case you expect a reply!

I've tried the app before, it didn't work, now it does! Thank God, I'm pretty damn happy about this. Bought the pro licence.
When I plug my headphones in however, sound keeps coming out the normal speaker, rather then the headphones. Hmm.

Trust me this is a pure software issue. I had such problems with my device once. Sometimes plugging in and plugging out head phones a few times fixes it as well.
Have you tried going back to stock ?

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...
