I am not much help, I fear. I just tested voice search and the sound recorder and they work ok. 32 gig Tf300T with the .29 update, rooted.
Did you add any aps that might use/control the mic? I find no controls other than the basic output volume sliders and none for mic volume.

I am having issues with the mic on the iconia. Volume is pretty low. While using gtalk the other side can barely hear me. Has anyone else been experiencing this?
Same here. Testing Fring and using the built-in mic or a headset mic, it is impossible to hear what I am saying. There is no mic adjustment in the Fring app and I can't find one in the tablet settings? Am I missing something that should be very obvious? How do you adjust microphone senstivity?
same problem with gtalk. It's sometime hard to hear what I say
I ve been having the same issues with gtalk. Havent tried any other voip app yet.
Mic works fine in voice recording apps though, so it can't be hardware related.
Maybe honeycomb issue??
Where are the mics?
i think the mic is atthe top of the screen in the crack dead center .click the vol up and click on the/pop up the middle i think is the mic volume .if/im/wrong sorry
I have the same problem on my galaxy tab 10.1 but mic volume seems low on all apps.
Just got the a500 and have experience similar results, mic volume is extremely low.
I have tried it with various voice apps, including gtalk, voice recorder, camcorder, etc, and the voice is really low.
Im begining to wonder that this is a hardware issue.
Is this issue consistent with all a500s? or only some models?
My mic is so low volume as to be virtrually useless. I tried plugging in an external mic and that was slightly better but not enough.
When using the voice recorder app I notice that the meter hardly moves off the stop, something wrong here.
I wonder if this issue is more common than it should be?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1162054
But some people here have said their mic is fine. I am going to check a few out in the shops and see if they are any better. Really, at the moment it's not suitable for skype or google talk which is what I got it for.
I still think its a honeycomb noise canceling issue. Plug In headphones while u record and u will see the difference.
I bought a second A500 yesterday and the microphone records my voice far better than the unit I've had for almost 2 weeks. With the old unit I can barely hear what I speak, but the new one I can hear myself clearly. Manufacturing date of the old one is may, the new one is manufactured in april. It did not get the 3.1 update yet so it's still running stock 3.01. One other thing I like about the new one I just got is that the volume buttons work a bit easier and don't require as much force to push them down.

That's the key right there.
It's a software problem not a material one.
I experienced the exact same thing as you.
Bought a new tablet and tested the mic with stock 3.0.1. The volume was fine.
Updated to 3.1 and the volume was very low.
Well, my mic sucks in a big way. I tried many times to use google talk, tango and so on with horrible results. I have to yell like crazy and they can barely hear me.
So... as a lot of ppl are complaiing and it's a software problem, is it possible they do nothing to solve it????? It shouldn't be that difficult...

I opened up my acer and moved the microphone to the front because before when recordingi couldnt catch a sound coming from recording eg. a person talking.
Now I can at least hear the voices of the people im filming.
For gtalk and skype and stuff i use a headphone set with a mic via the headphones jack, much nicer.
Cheers!

You don't say things like these and not tell us the how's and the what's. For example, what headset did you use? How did you move the mic to front?
BTW, I'm on 3.1 and have never had an issue with the mic. Just did a recording while I was driving and talking. Still sounds pretty good to me.

There is actually a thread further back if you bother to look that I opened and described everything and also uploaded a video to see the mic improvement.
Edit: Here is my thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1169050
Edit: Headset I used is a brand called EXIBEL Art.no 38-4061, cheap and works PERFECTLY I can hear and be heard as if in the room.
same issues. Sound seems to just stop as well after I use camcorder
Mine works well on any app except gtalk. Although I recently installed voodoo on my rooted Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the mic adjustments helped. Without Voodoo I usually just plug in headphones when I use gtalk and that solves the issue 100%.
Hi,
I have recently bought Motorola defy XT535 Indian version, after using for about a week, I have realized that the phone is not giving the full sound output when earphones are plugged-in, but when someone call/or I make call while music/video is playing ..the actual full sound comes back, and it goes back to same situation as soon as music is pause/stopped.
I have revisited all the settings, but could figure the reason, also looked through google and there is no solution.
I will be grateful if anyone could help on this.
If you can give us more info we can help you to sort it out

Have you got any solution?
Have you got any solution to this issue. I'm possessing a motorola defy xt 535 and music over the headphones seems to be average. When i'm listening to music and if i receive any call amidst listening to music and as soon as the call is over my music volume suddenly increases to double which actually becomes untolerable.
I tried with other music players as well on google play alongwith some volume control and volume lock options but nothing seems to be helpful.
Please share with me if you've any fix for this issue.

I also have the same problem. The sound is normaly very low, so everytime i need to call some fake number to volume up in the end of the call to turn to "normal" volume level.
Another thing I noted, not all headphones work ok with XT535. The original work ok, but every other the sound is very low and ethereal, looks like one channel are not connected.
Hi, I got a new mic yesterday for when videoing loud sources (iRig Miccast) or just for simple & quick better quality mono recording on my phone, taking notes, recording ideas etc...
Anyway there appears to be a problem with the nexus 4 (unrooted/locked/stock running kitkat)
I have tried recording with various applications, irigs own application, tapemachine, lg camera pro, or Audio evolution pro.
When I record using the phones inbuilt mic... there is no problem, no static clicks..
However when plugin the iRig Miccast and start recording, there is random spikes/static clicks
I have set the phone to airplane mode so there shouldn't be any interference from the radios, ive tried with Screen on/off and makes no difference
I have tried the same on my motorola Xoom and there is no static clicks, so this must be related to the nexus 4
(i cant run the test on the nexus 7 (2012) as it appears to not support external mics)
Any ideas whats causing the clicks when only using external mic on n4?
many thanks

Was it working right on Jelly Bean? Maybe software update broke external mic support like Nexus 7... Also you can try factory reset.

Maybe try flashing Jelly Bean factory image (JWR66Y) and find out if the issue is still here. I tried to google that but only bluetooth mics and some for iPhones . For me Logitech USB headset isn't working, but it's via USB so...(I have the OTG path).

My Nexus 6P's top speaker does not work while on call speaker. The bottom one does. Now, I know is not the speaker because that's only when it happens. The speaker work flawlessly when listening to music, a game, or anything. Someone told me that it might be that the call speaker settings are set to mono instead of stereo but I don't know how to change that or if that's even the problem. Anyone else have this problem or the solution to it? I have tried safe mode, factory reset, everything, but nothing happens. Please help.
Does it work on hands-free mode or handset mode or neither? Do you have any sound mods that could be interfering with call volumes and the likes? Are you on stock ROM and kernel?

No modifications. I did factory resets so even in Stock doesn't work.
I think it's like that from the factory. My top speaker doesn't play when on speakerphone as well.
Mine has never used the top speaker during speaker call.

Wow this is such a relief to hear. I thought it was just me. But that shouldn't be the case. When on speakerphone, it is very low.
how to get them both working ?
Hi,
bought an A5 510FD Indian version yesterday. I am surprised that its has such a low speaker volume for the ringtone. In fact, I missed a number of calls today because the phone was on the bed or the TV was or and such. I have already all sounds set to max. Is there a way to increase the ringer volume? Call volume seems to be adequate
If this requires to root, do let me have a full guide. I am not a power user, just need to be able to hear incoming calls.
P.S. did search a bit and found a few links but at some point it went all greek and latin

Try the app Speaker boost on play. It works well for audio, not sure if it works for ringtones.

No its called 'speaker boost' and it works very well on all devices I've used it on. 4 separate devices and it does work for ring tones too.
