Microphone stopped working - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For some reason my microphone on my D801 Lg G2 stopped working. This happened completely randomly, attaching an external microphone to it does not work either. I've tried flashing the stock 4.2.2 firmware onto it and upgrading to the latest firmware but no luck.
My brother has the same model G2 as me as well so I tried switching only the motherboards with his phone, turns out the mic still doesn't detect anything. I honestly don't know what else to try.
Does anyone have any suggestions on things to try/flash to get it to start working again, any advice would be helpful.

if it is a hardware issue than no flashing is going to fix the problem

CM 10|| Major headphone and signal issues on L7

Hello everyone, a while back I bought an LG Optimus L7 P705 and was not satisfied with the performance, so after a while of putting it off, I installed CM 10 Nightly today, however, there are two issues that I can't find a fix for:
1. Headphones: A lot of people have complained about some headphones not being recognized, or some headphones not working, well this is not completely my case. My headphones do get recognized, I can tell because when I put them in while a song is playing, the volume changes, and when I take them out, it pauses. But all the sound comes from the speakers, so sound comes out of the headphones, I have tried multiple headphones.
TL;DR: Headphones are recognized but do not emit any audio
2. No signal: No matter what I do, there is no signal
I have tried: Wiping both caches multiple times, rebooting many times, and reinstalling twice.
You should probably know that before this, I flashed the V20A firmware.
I know there are other ways to improve my phone's performance, but I do not want to continue to use LG's custom UI, it uses up too much CPU/Battery and it doesn't even look that great, I also really want to get CM working, I like that ROM.
Any fixes/advice/ways to fix either issue would be highly appreciated.
EDIT: RESOLVED. If you want this topic and you want to know how I fixed the issue, check the posts.

The v20 baseband does not seem to work with CM10. For me, flashing the v10 baseband from this post (first link) fixed it.

I read somewhere that this MIGHT be the problem, although it worked for other people, so I attempted to flash V10K, but it gave me an error. Will post a screenshot of that error in a few.
Well, I can't post the screenshot, but this is the error: Upgrade error Wparam:100 Lparam:6, I tried looking up the error but all search results linked me to bricked phones, my phone is not bricked.
Edit: Thank you so much man, I downloaded the file you told me to and installed it as a ROM from Clockworkmod, worked like a charm and fixed both issues I cannot thank you enough

[Q] No sound, device freezes when trying to play any sound. S4

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) and I'm having a couple problems with it.
First the phone freezes when its turned on it using Official software or a Touchwiz rom but doesn't happen with other Roms so I'm not very bothered about that.
Secondly there is no sound coming from the device, the only sound that comes off is the booting sound when using touchwiz, I've tryed with headphones and still nothing, and If I go to music and try to play a song the phone freezes until I press the home button, It also freezes when dialing or when any other sound should be coming of the device.
I've done a lot of factory resets and tried various roms but the problem stays.
And thirdly I have no signal on the device, when I put the sim card it just says no service, to be fair the sim card is a normal sim that has been cut to fit micro sim slot, becasue its what I use on my other phone and it works, I'll try with an actual micro sim when I have one available.
I don't know it these problems could be linked, that's why I'm putting them together. I have been searching online but I can't find anything similar.
Hope someone here can help me. Thanks a lot in advice!!
Can't get arorund this!
Ok, so I'm now looking at the sound problem now, seems like there is some people having this issue when the phone freezes when the phone should be playing sound.
I've looked at several threats here and for most people flashing I9505XXUDMH8_I9505OXXDMHA_I9505XXUDMH8_HOME.tar resolved the problem, so I tried it but still no sound.
So my I9505 is now on XXUDMH8, I rooted it again and installed a custom rom since the original firmware is not working very good.
Hope someone can help me!
Can anyone help?
OK so last night I tried flashing I9505XXUEMI8_I9505OXAEMI8_I9505XXUEMI8 and after I changed the kernel I got some sound when turning the volume up and down but the phone was running very slow.
Today I tried flashing Omega rom v15 flashing the right modem for the new bootloader before flashing the zip and no sound, I tried changing the kernel, still nothing.
So now I'm in build number XXUEMJ9 and baseband MJ5.
Please I've tried everything I can think of and I can't fix this, I need help! :crying:

LG G2 Cannot connect to camera

Had this phone for about 1 week now. Everything been fine until today. I tried to take a few pictures, but I couldn't. Received an a pop up with "Cannot connect to camera" I'm not sure what's causing this issue, I cleared the data/cache on it and still occurs. Is there any solution to this issue?
Thank you.
I have exactly the same situation.. But it's weird - ported LGCamera works without errors, other apps (market or aosp based) throw error. Sometime clear app data help, but only sometimes..
It could be hardware problem?
I've had this happen when I was on an older CM11 nightly.I did have to preform a clean install to fix the problem.

18/03? It didn't helped.. I was testing old and newest ROMs - same situation I think it could be some hardware problem - currently I have version from Singapore build at 02/2014
EDIT#1
Weird.. I will go back to stock - test, then install custom ROM.. Something go wrong - when I'm using ported LGCamera.apk in CM/Slim/PA it's working, other camera apps - don't..
I guess I found out the issue of why it was being caused. I also have a Nexus 5 and both had the APP Flashlight by Go Launcher. Seems to me when I downloaded and used it couple of times it caused my camera not to work on both phone. Uninstalled it and now it's working fine with now issues. I'm not sure if you guys also have a flashlight app, but maybe you can give it a try.
I got a replacement g2 from my insuarance and from the box mine done the same thing i tried every app i could find one day i flashed a diffrent rom and was bored. Clicked on my cam and it worked went back to my stock backup for my updatez and it wouldnt connect found out its was a software isse broken software from the factory i put a new stock rooted rom on and good as new. Mine was down. For about a month whrn i notticex what was wrong i thouvht i had a hardware failure but it wasnt there is always a chance of a bad cam but also some app like certain flashlights do take over your hardware if uve rooted and the phone is new goback stock unroot and have swapped
I'm on stock KK right now = 0 problems, so I think it's not hardware. LG camera and other apps always working fine.
Now I will go back to AOSP and test apps again

Hello,
Did you go back to aosp ? Is the camera ok now ?
Thanks
Here's a thought. After a new rom anybody feel there is a dial pad code to bridge the connection gap.
help, question

Speaker, WiFi and Bluetooth not working

Please I need your help guys.
My OnePlus2 recently started behaving weird. The Bluetooth, WiFi and External speaker just stopped working for no apparent reason. Every other thing is working. 3G works just fine. I am able to make calls through the normal speaker (i.e. by putting the phone to the ear), but if I decide to switch the calls to the loudspeaker, I can't hear anything. Also, if I play music to the external speaker I can't hear anything unless I connect a wired earphone through the jack. When I try to turn ON the Bluetooth and Wifi, they just turn themselves back OFF, so they have become useless.
Please has anyone experienced anything like these before; if yes, please how did you solve it.

Not too sure about the External Speaker issue, but generally whenever I get Bluetooth and WiFi issues exactly like yours in the past - a reset solved the problem.
But I only ever had issues like that if I'm using a Custom ROM.....
Is your 1+2 using OxygenOS by any chance?

Thank you for your help.
What I mean by the External Speaker is the speaker at the bottom of the phone next to the charging port that enable you listen to the audio, either call or music, without putting the phone to your ear.
Yes, I am on the stock Oxygen 2.1.0. I have also restarted and wipe data and cache more than five times but nothing different has happened so far.
Ahh so the loudspeaker is faulty? The loudspeaker and the wireless module are quite separate hardware, so we've got to hope that it's a software fault - rather than both multiple prices of hardware being faulty.
At this stage do a nandroid backup, then Clean Install OxygenOS 2.2.0. If that doesn't solve the issue, just let us know. (If you need specific instructions on how to do the nandroid backup & clean install, just let us know as well).

I did a nandroid backup as advised and I downloaded and clean install the Oxygen 2.2.0.
The situation didn't change. Its as if the modules are just not present.
For example, when I try to activate the WiFi or Bluetooth, they are animate as if to turn ON; but after a couple of minutes it simply turn back OFF and grey-out.
I even installed the unofficial CM 13 hoping this might solve the problem, but it remains the same.
Do you think this may in any way be connected with the kernel?

Hmm no it shouldn't since you clean installed OOS (that should have flashed the stock kernel too).
Give it a try anyway, try flashing @Lord Boeffla kernel for OOS http://www.boeffla-kernel.de/
Just make sure you download the .md5 as well (ensure the download isn't corrupted).
If that fails, try the stock kernel as well http://boeffla.df-kunde.de/oneplus2/stock-kernel/.
If the above doesn't happen, can you do this check for me?
Shake the phone, tap the phone on a desk (aim around the sim card area), be gentle though, all we need is to ascertain if the signal flex cable is loose.....
Once you shaked and tapped the phone, check if the wifi/bluetooth is working? (if not, give it a reset and try again).....

Thank you very much for your time @LogicalJunkie549.

For your speakerphone issue, I can bet it is related to the modem/ radio.
Please update to the latest modem/ radio (via fastboot) for your device.
Then test calling again and report back.
Note that this issue and solution is not specific to Oneplus. It is applicable to CM 13 on all devices across manufacturers.

Hi Isadeiza, try this modem first (its the 'modem' for MM which might solve the issue finally). https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24415232478675280.
Also try dirty flashing it first, if that doesn't work... Take nandroid then Clean flashing it.
What OxygenOS are you in now btw? As of right now we're up to 2.2.1....

Hi guys, thank you all for your support.
After a long time, my experience are as below.
After upgrading to OxygenOS 3.0, the behavior of the phone did not change. No sound from loudspeaker, no Bluetooth and no WiFi.
Well I stopped using it until my other phone started heating up so I came back to the OnePlus Two again. One day, I was surprised when the phone started ringing loudly as someone called my line. It worked for about 3 - 4 hours and stopped again. After about 5 days, it came up again for some 4 hours and stopped working again. It does this for over 6 cycles and about 3 days ago it kept working without stopping since.
So I am still observing it for the past three days and it seems to have repented, holding my hopes up high that it will continue to work without hitches again; though I cannot say now what happened, why it stopped working and why it started working now.
The problem of the Bluetooth and WiFi still persist and I still can't use the BT and WiFi. It just behave as if the modules are not present. My fingers crossed expecting them to "miraculously" come back to functional state just as the loudspeaker did on its own.
Thank you all guys for your support.

Bluetooth & Nougat SIM Card Issues

Hey XDA peeps!
I recently got meself a G4 Plus (32/3 GB, XT1643), and everything has been totally fantastic, except for this: connecting to a Bluetooth device is almost impossible, and using any 7.1 ROM causes SIM errors.
I've been able to connect to my Android Wear watch, but that's about it. I got Motorola's VerveLoop+ headphones too, and it connects to everything but my G4+. I tried multiple things, reflashing the modem file (NON-HLOS.bin), flashing stock ROM, flashing multiple ROMs from the forums (CM, RR, BS, AOKP), none of them fixed the problem.
I'm currently using RR 5.7.4 (MM), and 5.8.0 (N) recently came out. I tried updating but it doesn't read my SIM after the process. I tried flashing the 7.0 "soak" ROM or whatever it is, but nothing, same issue over and over again. I tried a full format and flashing RR alone through TWRP but same thing.
So, what do? Any help on either would be very much appreciated.

I have multiple Bluetooth devices and connections all day long and I'm on RR 5.8.0 atm but no issues like you happened to me ever(XT1642, MM stock modem). Maybe with flashing you messed up the modem so sim detection etc. Is gone? Did you tried to separately flash the M modem?

Tried it before and tried it just now, and still nothing... Right now I'm more concerned about the Bluetooth thing, its bumming me out. I reverted back to RR 5.7.4 from a backup, but even on 5.8.0, Bluetooth wouldn't work.
Anyone know what to do?
So if I understand correctly Bluetooth has never worked properly for you ever since you bought the phone?
If that's the case and it doesn't work even with stock firmware you should consider hardware fault.
I would put stock back and try to get it serviced.

No what happened is that after flashing RR, the thing stopped working. I tried reverting back and it's the same. It's not that Bluetooth isn't functional, I can connect to my laptop and my Android Wear watch, but it won't connect to my Bluetooth headset (the VerveLoop+ as I mentioned)

If it was working with stock, you should be able to get it back to work.
I would focus in making it work again in stock.
Make sure you flashed the right version for your model and so on.

Well thing is, I tried doing that before, after flashing RR the first time, Bluetooth stopped functioning properly, be it in CM or stock, same thing.
Note: I was able to fix the weird SIM thing with 7.1, but Bluetooth issues still persist.

I don't really know, I was looking for a workaround and I backed up my RR 5.7.4 ROM, then when I hit restore it wouldn't work, so I flashed RR 5.8.0 just to see what will happen and it got fixed... Really odd how that worked...
Edit: Never mind it, it went back to how it was after restoring my backup properly. I tried updating but it didn't work. For 7.1 issues, I'll just wait until the official update and flash the modem file for it, I really hope it works.
