Ear speaker issue - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

Hi, I'm having a problem with my newly purchased A2. When I make a call the ear speaker does not work, I activate and deactivate the loudspeaker or headphones and there the ear speaker works. The problem happened in Oreo and Pie. I wanted to know if something else happens to someone else or is the hardware that is wrong.
Thanks!

Yes I am facing the same problem, after the OS Update, the earpiece of my Xiaomi Mi A2 mobile has stopped working.

(ignore, upon closer reading the issue appears to be different -- the earpiece starts working upon toggling the loudspeaker, something which didn't happen in my case)

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...

Broken earpiece

Hey guys,
So recently I've run into this issue with my phone where whenever I am in a call the earpiece doesn't seem to work. I can't hear the other person at all. However if I switch to speaker output then I can hear the person. At first I thought it was a bug with the ROM i was running because I just flashed a new ROM prior to this and the earpiece worked fine previously but I switched to another ROM now and the issue still persists. Do you guys think my earpiece is broken? Could it be fixed or replaced easily? Also I don't get how speaker output seems to work when this phone has front facing speakers so aren't the speakers and the earpiece the same thing?

Help with sound issue

Hope somebody can help please? My Zuk Z2 Pro has lost the earpiece sound when on a phone call. People can hear me, but I cannot hear them. I am sure its a software problem but not sure how to permanently fix it.
I ran a manual engineering test by typing *#*#1111#*#* and checked the speaker and the microphone in settings, they are fine. However, the ‘Rec’ setting wont play any sound to the earpiece.
I have read its a known issue and installing the app mswitch (keycut) worked,but it didnt. I then read about switching off "OK Google", well on a Zuk this is not easy to find, so am not even sure I was able to disable this app.
EDIT: After more investigation I have found that when I turn the voice volume up in ringer settings it does nothing, which I think may be the speaker itself. My wife has the same phone and hers works normally. There are three ringer volumes, and the middle one does nothing but I know it did yesterday
I then tried another app called "Soundabout". This worked and allowed the Rec setting in the engineering side of the phone to play a sound, like an increasing oscillalation of sound. I then restarted the phone and it worked, but not permanently. The app doesn't seem to stay working.
However, when I made a phone call the earpiece speaker still didnt work. I could not hear anybody but they could hear me.
However, it does work when headphones are plugged in.
Does anyone know if a factory reset of the software would help as I am stuck and desperate for help. It just suddenly stopped working yesterday, so am puzzled as to why. The phone is just less than 12 months old, so not particular aged and it has always been in a case and well looked after. Its running stock Android 6 with the ZUI overlay from Zuk, so no changes made to it.
I have de same problem. Two months ago the speakers decreased the volume and microphone does not work properly.
I replaced the usb + mic piece, but the problem remains the same. Now, I have ordered speakers piece, but I guess the problem will continue.
The only thing I can think is the origin of the issue could be the bluetooth earphones that in some way had changed the sound configuration.
Try to qfil ZUI 1.9, if that does ot help then its hardware problem most likely.

Finally I have found the origin of the problem. It was in the dust filters of the phone. I used an special liquid for the screen protector. Some of this liquid goes to the filters. I have cleaned this filter with a brush teeth.
It is silly and I feel dumb.
Simple fix
Please do not feel dumb or stupid as this is something we don't think about.
The problem is due to dust and fabric accumulation. I just had this problem.
The fix is simple.
Use something soft to bang your receiver. In my case i used the tip of my finger. You want to the bang to be good but not to break the glass. My finger hurts a bit so I think a small rubber hammer will do the job.
Hope this helps.
Clean earpiece protector
Hi, I had the same issue and after trying all software tweaks with no success, what I have done is use a toothbrush to clean the tiny holes from the earpiece protector. I pushed some brush bristles gently through the holes and... it worked!!!
Hope it helps.

Mi 9T Pro microphone stops working

My phone's microphone stops working a few minutes after starting the device. You can talk normally, but after a while the microphone stops working and you cannot hear the interlocutor in the handset. Restarting the phone helps, but after a few minutes the same thing happens. I have already tried to downgrade to Miui 11, tested different ROMs, but the same thing happens in all of them. In addition, when I connect the headphones to the mini jack port after the microphone stops working, I hear a continuous noise and the phone does not detect the headphones. I have already checked the main and top microphones in the CIT and after starting the device it works normally and shows the volume level correctly, but after they stop working, the meter shows 0 all the time and does not respond to the sound.
The strangest thing is that the phone worked fine after purchase. Problems started happening after upgrading to Miui 12.5
Is it hardware or firmware damage? Do you have any idea how this could be fixed? I was thinking about buying a USB board with a microphone and replacing it, but if there is a problem with the firmware, there is no point in disassembling the phone.

Question Issue during calls on loudspeaker

Hello everyone,
So I just bought the Xiaomi 11T and I really love this phone, but I'm facing a bizarre issue. During a call if I turn to loudspeaker, the other person on the line says that I sound like my mic is blocked or something, and my voice is lower. It doesn't occur if I'm talking in handset mode of with any kind of earphones. It occurs on any kind of call (Phone, WhatsApp, Telegram...)
Another weird thing is that the when in loudspeaker, the other person hears any noise resulting from me moving the phone in my hand very very loudly. I'm on MIUI 13.0.5 EU version.
I really like this phone and do not wish to return it, does anyone face this issue? how do you solve it?
Thank you
