Hello everyone !
I have a really annoying problem since last year, when i root my device for the first time.
The microphone doesn't work in applications who needs it. I can't record my voice, use Google voice Recognition....
If i call someone, the caller can not hear me unless I activate the speaker phone mode.
It's a very strange problem
I have tested every custom and stock roms, no results.
Maybe there are a adjustment to do ( in *#*#197328640#*#* ) ?
Please help me
thanks,
abeilard14
Up.. it's a pretty annoying problem
just say me if it is a hardware or logicial problem if you know, please
If it appears with different ROMs it's probably a hardware-problem.
But I can't see any connection between breaking your mic and rooting your phone.

Yes, but it's strange that the mic works only when i activate the speaker phone mode during call.
It is not completely broken apparently !
may be a setting to change somewhere . . .
Hello everybody,
I'm sorry for opening that topic but i'm desperate now. I saw similar topics for that but i tried every written solution on that topics not working.
Last month i've rooted my i9500 first time and flashed CyanogenMod (4.4.2 Kitkat). There were few bugs on this ROM. For example Camera Problem, Low Mic issue etc.. After i used that ROM 2 days, i decided to change my ROM because of bugs. I changed 4-5 ROMs for i9500. ( Phoenix, CyanogenMod(New Version), MIUI etc... But the low mic issue was still there.
I tried flashing Stock Rom 4.3
Flashing Stock New Rom 4.4
Flashing stock Kernel and stock Radio
Flashing other ROMs...
I tried all of them. All problems gone except low mic issue. First I thought something wrong with my hardware but after that i noticed that the low mic issue is just running on Phone Calls. If i open speaker my voice is perfect but in normal call people barely hear me or don't hear me.
Voice recorder and Video Recording is perfectly record sound. The problem is occur only Phone Call without speaker.
So i need your help, how i can solve this low mic issue ?
Thanks for all.
try downloading AudioManager on play store and see if it helps. It could be a hardware problem you know.
cheers ~
I downloaded AudioManager but nothing changed. I guess the problem is not hardware because if i use speaker on phone calls my voice is perfect. Audio recording and video recording are also perfect.
No solutions ?
please help me about this. i tried everything i've read nothing changed.
You've probably got dirt in your microphone hole, locate it on the bottom of the device and use a dental pick or something to clear the blockage.
Perhaps you're covering the microphone hole when you hold up the phone to your ear?
I tried to clean it nothing changed. I'm holding same as i always do . I tried directly speak to mic hole. Nothing changed
Same Issue please help us
I Have same issues, im sure Hardware is working Fine, mic in low volume if using at phone call and record voice note. but in other apps like Audio Record, and Activate Speaker Phone mic is Working properly, S Voice, etc
I also upgrade my device GT-I9500 JB 4.3 with firmware for Russia I9500XXUFNB3_I9500SERFNB3_I9500XXUFNA6_HOME
After that , start my problem with S4 device and microphone NOT working level is so bad and low .... sound is very poor
If I use speaker option mic working good , also if I use bluetooth headset for communication sound work good , normal .
But have problem if I answering and try talk "normally " by microphone .
Today try with other 4.4.2 firmware like I9500XXUFNB7_I9500OLBFNB4
But unfortunately, there is still the problem with my S4 GT-I9500
My mic work good with JB 4.3 but this problem start when upgrade to 4.4.2

(remove .zip)
same weird problem
i9500. on AOSB KK 4.4.4 1.3v mic works fine on phone calls, whatsapp voice, recorder,etc
but on euphoria rom , some builds mic only works in whatsapp and google nw etc and not on phone calls
frapetis CM12 v19build, mic works sometimes in calls, sometime not, sometimes after dialling crazy screetching noise comes, cannot hear the call then nor they can hear me. after 2-3 call attempts, voice becomes fine,and can call with no troubles. but this sh*T keeps happening.
tried going back to TW(AURORA, STOCK) , still same story, mic not working in calls, but in voice recorder
Some builds mic doesnt work only,anywhere.
anyone any help >_<
considering the fact that voice works with KK and problems are only in 5.0/.1 ROMS. tried different modems for lollipop also, still no use
Hi,
I have the S4 i9505 and I did root the device and flashed many different ROMs like CM, MIUI and so on. Things were fine until suddenly people started complaining they cant hear me fine on calls and that they felt am too far from the phone! As if i've them on speaker phone and talking with my mouth far off from the mic.
I tried many different things like taking the phone to the local service center but they wouldnt take the phone as its from another country.
I tried to bring the phone back to the STOCK ROM but the problem still exists
I tried recording my voice via a voice recording app and it works perfect - so no issues with mic.
When I speak via bluetooth or handsfree/earphones there is no problem - so I guess the radio is fine
I dont know what to do to get this working fine :crying: can someone please help me
So I know there are other threads with the same issue but mine is a bit different. I found out that when I'm talking to someone on my lg g2(d802) cellphone they can't hear me so I tried everything and I found out that they can hear me perfectly when I turn on the speaker mode while calling(getting the persons voice played through the phones bottom speaker), so I think thats really weird because my microphone won't work without a speaker mode on while calling. It's not a rom related issue because noone using rom FR 2.0.1 Didn't had this problem and also idk if this is related with this but in the recovery I'm unable to flash any zip and also first time when I installed the recovery i updated it with flashing new recovery 2.8.4.0 and my phone somehow automaticly downgraded it to the one i had before and I'm unable to flash new twrp recovery/viper4andoid/etc... Error message is different every time which is also weird. For example for twrp it is something like asster failed(run_program). Idk if that is related with microphone issue but I wanted to provide all data. Also I have a KK baseband. Thanks for reading.
I have the same problem "reversed" .
On speakerphone my microphone doesn't work. No matter what rom I use.
Would be nice if someone has figured it out.
It's weird. I tried everything and still the same problem. It appeared just after I flashed a new rom and I tried going back to stock and still the same issue
hi, sorry for my little english.
my lg g2 d802 4.4.2 had this problem, they can hear me but like i'm far away. try to stop voice control in all pages in Google search.
when i had this problem vocal and video record don't go, it appears i'm using microphone on another app. i stop vocal control and the phone now i going better!

Had this issue on an iPhone and a Windows Phone. Microphone is probably shot. Different mic used for when it is on speakerphone compared to calls. Usually cannot record video audio either...sucks.
Hi,i'm Andrea and i'm from Italy.
I have a problem with every AOSP rom that i've tried,based on kitkat and lollipop and i don't understand why not everyone found this bug .
This bug of AOSP roms consist that every time i receive a whatsapp's sound message and i bring the phone to my ear to listen the sound is distorted and incomprehensible. but if i listen it from the speaker the problem doesn't appear.
I think that is a earphone's problem because sometimes it happens when i'm calling. Actually i'm on cloudyg2 and i don't have any audio problem,i've tried to copy audio_conf,audio_policy and some other files from the cloudy to CM12 and the result is that the phone doesn't boot.anyone can help me????
Same for me... It's something to do with the modem we are installing, because without that it doesn't happen.
