Help editing mixer_paths, main mic is broken - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my main mic (no one can hear me while I call nor google now works) broken past the warranty period and searched a lot through Google and got nothing out of it but that you can edit the mixer_paths.xml to trick the OS to take the secondary mic(which works, people can hear me when I use speakerphone) as the primary one. Help anyone?

Microphone broken?

I just made a phone call and the person on the other end couldn't here me. I've just checked with a friend and they can just about hear me but its gone extremely quiet - it wont hear me when I record now either.
Does anyone have any ideas why this might have happened - what is the likely cause (dust in mic, mic problem or software problem?)
Thanks for any help

...low recording volume? Did you check for mic volume and set it all the way up?
Thanks for getting back to me -
Is there a mic volume setting? I dont know where to find it if there is? (Im using the orange rom - maybe I need to do it in the registry - if so do you know where)
All I can find is the microphone AGC- when I set that it comes a bit louder but not much - I've been checking it via phoning my land line and via recording memos
thanks again
I just tried it with my hands free headset and it works fine so I think that means it must be a physical problem. I keep it in my pocket all the time so its probably got some fluff in it or something -
does that sound right?
anyone? Im thinking of taking it to bits as I dont seem to have any other options -
unless there is a mic volume control that I dont know about
OK there was nothing obviously wrong with it, so some component must have gone, has anyone done a repair themselves or should i send it somewhere and if so where (in the UK)
all replies appreciated

Microphone not working

Hey guys, a couple of days ago i kinda dropped my phone annndd now it seems that the microphone is just fuzzy. I can hear people perfectly fine and the speaker works with music and sounds, but when i use it to talk or even voice recorder, the sounds is just static. I used a website to help open the phone but i am unsure where the microphone would be. Any help or insight is greatly appreciated

S7 Edge - Microphone not working in calls

Please help,
Samsung have returned my phone twice saying no fault found, but every time I make or receive a call there is no sound on the other end. The mic works for google search, video recording, voice recorder app etc, but as soon as I make a call no one can hear me at all. Any ideas welcome please before I end up selling it as faulty. Gutted and tearing my hair out!
Hey!
I have a similar issue with my S7. Microphone does not work only during the calls. Turning on speakerphone does not help (as it should when you have a broken bottom microphone) and also if I connect headset then the microphone from the headset works. In all other aps both (botom, top) microphones work (I do have stereo in video recording etc.). Did it happen to you after system update or when?
Cheers
A small update:
I have found that the issue is even more silly for me.
So I make a call and the person to whom I am calling cannot hear me. Then I connect a headphones, but ones without a microphone. And suddenly the microphone in the phone starts working. But the moment I disconnect them it stops.
Can you confirm this happening for you?
its old, but i have same problem. Now, I am trying to flash stock rom and see if it will work. After restart, I microphone works only once in call app, that it dont work. But i can record audio with it and in any other app it works. Idk what is the problem, but i want to find out

[X00TD] Mic not working in loudspeaker

Hi guys,
My phone got into water recently, but luckily after going to local repair guy it works.
Only issue is, my secondary mic hardware is gone. So when I am on call and turn on loudspeaker, Other person can't hear a thing.
I tried to do some changes in build.prop so that always my primary mic is used but was unsuccessful.
Anybody knows how this can be achieved ?
Or if someone can give me reliable link of mic part online that will also help.
Thanks
