First of all, I'm running MSM Xtended v9 dirty flashed from v5 which was clean flashed after Havoc OS Pie rom some time ago.
Okay so here is the problem as specific as possible.
At first, after doing an online call using headphones (Either via Whatsapp, Messanger, Discord) the mic would suddenly stop working, no voice input would be detected whether its Voice Notes, regular calls, google assistant or any other app that detects voice input. This was back on MSM Xtended v5, which was Clean flashed. The problem then persisted and turned into the mic doing the same thing even without the headphones, then onto doing it again for regular calls too, not just the online ones (so that means I have to reboot after every call). I thought it was a problem with my android version so I upgraded to v9, dirty flashed. I wanted to opt for a clean flash but I had some data on apps that couldn't be backed up at the time. Problem still remained and now the mic suddenly stops working after reboot for no reason without making any calls.
Obviously, as every developer recommends I thought to clean flash the rom again, and prepared myself to backup everything and lose that which I can't back up. Then while looking for a different rom, I noticed multiple people having the same problem for different ROMs, though all were Android 10 ROMs.
So I wanted to ask, is there any solution to this problem? It makes the device basically unusable without any mic, and I do understand that not everyone has the same problem but when I saw others having it I realized it might not be specific to my unit.
Anyone trying other Android 10 ROMs without this problem? Should I downgrade to Pie? Any help would be appreciated, please.
If you recommend downgrading please tell me how, as I seem to have forgotten and can't find the method online (it may be there but I haven't seen, I apologize if that's the case).
Thank you in advance.
Known issue on Android 10, most probably it is Gapps issue, so try Weeb Gapps if you don't need 'Hey Google' thing. Downgrading is not that hard on OnePlus 3T, just download OOS 9.0.6, backup your data to PC or OTG, wipe all and format data and flash OOS, that's it.

Hello,
So far Holic's ROM seems to be the only one without in-call volume problems on my Vivid (Bell Canada) but there are two problems, one more annoying than the other
first, most annoying problem: after I install, the phone will upgrade to the latest apps like Hangouts. Everything works great, I can start hangouts and chat.
But after some time (5 to 10 minutes) of the phone just sitting there, or especially after a reboot, I will get the "google play services is not supported by your device" error. I have to remove update to google play store and resintall it, and then problem goes away temporarily and hangouts is usable again, and after the next reboot same problems reappear.
Does anyone have any fix for this?
second problem, less annoying:
On the phone dialer, there is a button at the bottom right which looks like a button for calling voicemail (has some funny symbols on it)
if I press this button I get error message "Android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". Does anyone else have this?
My phone is S-ON
I reinstalled the rom several times. I do the full system wipe before from recovery, flash the boot image, install rom with WCX recovery, re-flash the boot image from the SD card
same problem every time.

What Gapps are you installing? Have you tried different ones?
CM11 in call volume is pretty much gone since about the middle of January (if you read the thread, you'll see good feedback about it from about the 15th on). Only issue is sending/recieving MMS. Might want to give it another shot since this seem to be the only one getting worked on by the devs.

I'm not flashing any Gapps on this, the ROM already comes with them.
This is a ROM based on 4.0.3 ICS, not kitkat
I actually tried two versions of CM11, one was the latest unofficial nightly build from february 19, and the other was the albinoman release from january 15. both have the low volume problem.
I also tried the Borked ROM, based on 4.0.3, and it has the same low call volume problem, but no other issues like hangouts not working.
What GApps should I flash for a 4.0.3 based ROM?
You don't flash gapps on a stock based ROM ever

Hi.
Im on Viper 800, a sense 6 based rom, 5.0.2, lollipop, firmware 7194012.
I flashed this sound mod - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2211163
In the description, my phone appears to be supported, along with the sense rom - M7 international.
After flashing, the result was this - great sound on speakers (as it should be), headset no longer recognized (sound only on speakers).
Ok, as I was doing always when facing this sort of problems, I restored a back-up version using TWRP. No matter how bad the software was messed up, this worked every time.
Not this time = the headset no longer recognized (sound only on speakers).
OK, I am writing an older back-up version = the same result.
Ok, maybe some scripts or libraries are corrupted, I am installing a NEW lollipop rom, after full wipe = the same result.
Ok, I am installing a fresh new rom, Kit Kat based = the same result.
The problem is that the automatic selection of speakers/headset is no longer functioning. I installed Soundabout apk, with allows you to manually route the sound on speakers or headset and it WORKS, but I cannot live with that - I want to repair this process in order to be automatic, as normal.
I need to understand wth is corrupted and how can I fix this...
Thank you in advance.

Afaik, sounds mod only make changes in the /system partition so restoring a nandroid backup or re-flashing the rom should fix any bug caused by the mod. Maybe its an hardware problem...
One thing that I love about Android is that no matter how deep was the **** I entered when flashing things, I never got stucked. Never, ever, and I had like 12 Android phones, rooting them all. Reading some tutorials, some topics, asking other guys.. I always solved the problems, by myself or with some help, without going to the service.
I fixed this. I wrote a fresh CM12, the result was the same (course), but out of despair, i pulled in/out the handset jack for SEVERAL times, while the music was playing and....it came back to its senses - the selection for sound output is automated again.
Thanks.
PS. It was software, not hardware - I explained above what happend when using Sound About.

Sounds more like an intermittent hardware problem. Flashing a new rom will wipe the sound mod from /system. Maybe there was some dirt in the jack and that pulling the plug in and out several time cleaned it. It might only be a coincidence if it happened after flashing that sound mod. Anyway glad to know its now fixed. :good:
Hello,
I have a motorola G6 that after bad root get stuck on bootloop.
I flash the phone with two roms but the phone after flash dont have sound during calls, the earpice dont work even in loudspeaker, but the phone rings when is receving calls.
anyone already have this problem?

This question is probably in the wrong section but anyway...I did. I never checked the phone prior to rooting so I'm not sure if a "bad root" was the cause or not. However, I experienced the exact same problem as you. I was originally on build OPS27.82-19-4 so I reflashed stock OPS27.82-19-4 as described here. But I still had the same problem. On a whim I randomly flashed build OPS27.82-19-4 following the same instructions. The phone has been working great ever since (I have it rooted, xposed. etc...). Not sure why there was a problem, or if reflashing the newer build "fixed" it or not...but as I said, all is good now. FWIW, when I check the sim status in settings>about phone, the network section is blank. It was blank when I had problems too.
Perhaps this will help you..
PS When I reflashed the firmware, the phone would boot into fastboot mode, then when I selected "Start" it would boot to the OS. If you run into that, here is how it was fixed. See posts 5, 6, 7, & 8.
Good luck!
I had a similar problem, I did the root, TWRP, I ended up giving up and flash again on the stock of the bike G6 Play (Brazil) available here in XDA, to my surprise, he made and received calls normally, the speaker for music and connections of other applications (Whatsapp, Messenger, Hangouts, etc.), but it did not work for the rom dialer.
I thought I had a problem, it was when a system update appeared, I installed it and it worked again.
I figured it was some rom bug I installed.
Tanks for the help.
I solved the problem flashing the phone with flashrom.bat instead of put the comand one by one.

That's because a custom rom or GSI does not have all the necessary files. 99.9% of the time, flashing stock will fix a problem.
Hello,
This has been driving me nuts. I can't be heard in normal calls, the mic picks up nothing.
I am using global 9t pro.
I have tested the hardware and the mic is working. Speakerphone works also. All roms tried present the same problem (stock, lineage, Xiaomi.eu). I have now clean flashed stock MIUI 10 and updated to 11 and problem remains.
I've read there can be sim reader problems, but speakerphone seems to work. I've read there can be audio routing problems relating to headset with mic being detected, but I can't find evidence the phone thinks there is a headset connected. I've disabled Google Assistant and the problem remains.
What puzzles me is that even after a complete clean flash of stock rom there is no improvement.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hello I had a similar problem, my autorotation and mic started to fail and I got confused, after some research it turns out if I flash MIUI 11 and go back to MIUI 10 a partition called persist gets deleted and it completely messes up your sensors and it won't get fixed regardless you flash another rom, what I did was download fastboot rom and flash it. If that doesn't fix it extract the persist.img from the rom files and flash it through TWRP and it should go back to working. Wait now that I think about it you try flash persist.img from the files and if it doesn't work then you flash the fastboot rom. Good luck
i have following problem: i got a xz1c without original firmware. i have no backup with the Stock-Rom. I installed twrp and flashed lineageos16 lilac. everything works excepted the microphone and speaker during a call. That means: i can start the call, and it is ringing at the other person, but i can't hear anything. no connection ring and no voice. the other person can't hear me also. microphone and sound/loudspeaker works in all other apps (i tested music-player, voicemail, recorder). i tried different call apps. nothing works.
the big problem is: i can't switch back to firmware because it doesn't exist as backup. i can't flash other ROM, because this lineage version is the only one i can flash. RR, AOSP, etc. failed all during installation.
what can i try? Has anybody a backup from firmware of the g8441, i can try?
i tried with a lot different files, for example androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=274221
either the filelink is broken or the flash failed during flashing.
i get crazy :-/
p.s.: I'm no expert in flashing phones, so please be sorry if i don't understand everything or if i use wrong words for explaining

Use EMMA to get you back to stock.

Hi!
Did u install Ainur Sauron and tweaked sauron.useroptions? If that's the case, look, under
"Experimental Qualcom only options",
did u set the option in line 82 "COMP=true" ?
I think, by removing the headphone compander from audio mixer s.th. goes wrong with routing to the right audio output channel, again.
Just from interest: perhaps u could check, if u have some pluggable headphones near u, if the left channel is a lot quieter?
Had this, I would call it "Xperia-Head-/Earphone issue", comin from Stock .228, after clean and fresh install of that unofficial one in LOS 16 1.0 (unofficial). I wondered, that after flash-routine, but before installing Ainur in Magisk, with my all-time-useroptions for sauron, still in internal memory (I didnt wiped internal memory, btw.) A friend was calling me, and everything was fine.
In the afternoon, after flashing Sauron, with this COMP-option set to true, same issue again. I had a few more options ticked, but that one seemed to make a lot more sense to me, not to be used with my XZ1c, again.
This will help u, perhaps.
U don't need to flash anything, if evreything is proper installed and working fine, except ur "Xperia-Head-/Earphone issue".
