Anyone using whatsapp facing issues with voice being play through loudspeaker when you put your phone near your ear? Normally when phone not near your ear it will play through loudspeaker and near face it will play through the internal speaker.

Same issue here, but is a random behavior

Found a thread and temporary solution. While playing voice message, cover the proximity sensor then screen will go off. Then quickly press power button then adjust the volume rocker. It actually adjusting the loudspeaker volume.... Unfortunately this will impact our call volume as well.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to raise the mic volume on a call. I use a car arm to use my phone to listen to music and answer calls while I'm driving. I've noticed that the mic volume is very low while the headphone jack is use (can't hardy hear me). Of I turn on the speaker feature on the call, the mic volume fixes itself. I was wondering is there was a way to raise the mic volume with the headphone jack in use .
Thanks in advance.
Bump!

If you search for mic call on N4 threads you will see lots of complains and no answer. Seems like noise cancelation is the problem but still no luck
Stick your finger over the top microphone while you're talking. That will make the N4 send all the signal from the bottom microphone, effectively eliminating noise suppression but letting your voice come through okay.

did it with no success, in fact that should be the solution for some reason it doesnt work for me
Dunno, then; I was just reporting the experience of a user in a different thread. I haven't had a phone call in the car since then, so I don't know whether it would work for me or not.
Just a thought -- my car mount has movable feet, and I have to make sure that one of them doesn't cover the microphone hole on the bottom. I don't know if your mount potentially has the same problem or not.
Hi all, wondering if anyone else has this problem. At the outset, I want to note this is NOT the headset crackle problem (where you can hold phone up to ear and hear noises).
When I perform an action, such as pressing the back button on Chrome or clicking a link or hitting the icon to an app, there's a chance that my headset speakers will make a popping noise. This is weird for a few reasons. One, my phone is on vibrate or silent, so it's not the standard "noise-on-button-press". Second, it's coming from my headset speakers, not the standard speakers.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a solution? It's happened to two out of the three phones I've used, and I don't know if it's worth it to do another replacement.

My first n4 had that same issue so I called Google play and they issued a RMA. It was just really annoying. And that same one had the noises in the ear piece. My second one doesn't seem to have the popping noise, but does have some noise in ear piece sometimes.

Hi all,
I picked up my 6P for few days. I couldnt figure out how can i listen to the voice clip/voice message properly from either Whatsapp or Line, does anyone here got the same experience as me ?
When you play a voice message from Whatsapp/Line chat, initially the volume is very low and you can barely hear it. And then when the proximity sensor under the top speaker is being covered, the upper speaker will sudden play the message in max volume i think, making everyone around you able to hear that message.
End up I can only hear those voice message using a headphone.

I use Telegram and voice messages work fine here on loudspeaker. If I cover the proximity sensor with my thumb or ideally, as though I was speaking on the phone by putting it to my ear, then the audio stops from the loudspeaker and plays through the earpiece only, so you can listen to it quietly without disturbing anyone. Is your experience the same as mine?
This is how u=it's supposed to be and I find it quite clever actually.

not exactly the same as yours, when i play the voice message and have the proximity sensor covered, the audio did came from the earpiece only, but at the extreme loud volume which i couldnt turn it down.
Been noticing that I say ok Google at the top of the phone and nothing happens then say it at the bottom and it works. Tested with the phone in safe mode and it still happened. If i block the bottom microphone it can't pick up anything. Anyone else can test this to see if they have the same issue or if it's just me that got a defective device.
Thanks in advance
I think the top microphone is for noise cancelation. So I think it's normal.

It was my understanding that they both pick up sound and noise cancel between them. That's the way it's been on other phones I have had.
Tried mine, and it is the same as yours.
I also tested it by using the voice recorder app, speaking into the top microphone while covering the bottom mic and then playing back to see if it is picking up sound. The playback was very quite. However it works normal when using the bottom mic.
Additional info, the phone user guide indicates that the voice recorder app has two modes of operation - standard and interview. In interview mode both top and bottom mics are in operation. I put the voice recorder app into interview mode and run the same test ( covering the bottom mic and speaking into the top mic) , this time the playback was loud and clear.
So it might be that in normal operation the top mic operates in noise cancellation mode as suggested above.
The bottom mic is designed to take your voice input. The top mic is designed to hear ambient noise, and subtract that information from the signal the bottom mic sends to the phone, reducing the amount of noise on your call or recording. That's the way all my phones with a noise cancelling mic work.
It works with the voice recorder

Hello, the top mic works with voice recorder when you choose the "interview" mode from the 3 options on top.
I know for sure that both mic works on mine. I don't know whether some apps will use the top mic only for noise cancelation, as others have mentioned.
I used an app called "Easy Voice Recorder Pro" and enabled Stereo recording in the settings in this app. The top mic works as left, and the bottom one works as right. You can try gently rubbing your fingers over the mic area to see if it picks up the sound and play it back wearing a headphone.
As others are saying.
The top moc is use for phone calls.
You can use the top mic for interview mode.
This is all normal
Hey guys! As I've updated my phone to Oreo (Jan) as soon as I got it, I don't know if this was an issue with Nougat, too, but the thing is that I'm getting distortion during calls. I would go for a faulty speaker, but sometimes sound is perfect, sometimes distorted, receiver test gives me perfectly clear sound, and sometimes only signal that it's ringing on the "other side" is distorted, but as soon as the other person answers voice is clear. This doesn't happen on loudspeaker or 3.5mm jack, though.
Any ideas what's the issue here?
