So guys after I flashed the Cyanogenmod 12 on my galaxy s4 I noticed some problems with the mic.
For example:
In call, People are complaining that the hear themselves (echo)
In videorecording, the sound is too dirty like there is no noise cancelation at all.
In sound recording, the levels of input when I am recording are going to the red all the time
I checked some solutions but none worked for me.
I do not have the mixer_paths.xml neither the audio_platforms_info.xml. Then, I tried to change some setting into the build.pro file and neither there.
Also, I don't want to roll back to the stock rom because I do not want to back up everything and then install them again and etc.
Any suggestions ?
Are you sure the mic holes are not dirty and filled with dust? You got one in the top and one in the bottom.
Answer
Yes I am pretty sure! I opened and cleaned the mics ! The problem started when I flashed cyanogenmod 12

Kushan CM is old and discontinued I think.
Switch to the official CM13 or other roms based on it.
Hello everybody
I own a Moto x play. Everything is fine except for the microphone. It does not pick up or transfers my voice very faintly to the other side. Most of the time ive to shout to get the message theough. Please note that the microphone records fine. I've tried it even after holding it at varied lenghts from the sound source to see if it works, no issues at all.
It has the problem only during calls.
Pls suggest a solution for the same.
I use a cruzerlite back cover and have no screen guards on.
does the issue happens too when you remove the back cover?

Yes it does persist even after removing the cover.
But recording is fine.
Guys here's another update.
I've tried the online mic test too....
The microphone works wonderfully.
But during calls its ****ty. It'd sound as if someone turned down the volume.
Could it be the noise reduction function of the phone? :crying:

Yes stock rom and not rooted.
you can edit build.prop to disable noise cancellation, but you need to be rooted for that.

I've rooted the phone and tried editing build prop no changes on the mic issue.
Is there any other way?

Hey guys. Curious little problem here. My 6 month old Nexus 6p doesn't want to work as a speakerphone using the stock app.... I've tried:
-Updating the app (to 4.0? from Playstore)
-Downgrading the app
-Downgrading from 7.1.1 to Pure Nexus 7.0 and 6.0 and Resurrection Remix 7.1 and stock 7.1.something
-Installing various versions of Gapps
-Disabling Phone 3.0
-Toggling on/off all permissions
Worth noting that the speakerphone works in Hangouts Dialer and Duo
Calls work fine when using Phone app as handset. Issue is only when speakerphone is toggled.
and Speakers work as normal in every other app!
HELP!
Also worth noting, maybe... when in a call Do Not Disturb icon pops up in the status bar but, upon pressing the speaker button, Do Not Disturb goes away.

You might want to go into sounds and make sure nothing is set up to trigger Do Not Disturb mode. If that is being triggered it could affect your speakers. Obviously also check all the slider levels for sound while you are there.

Yeah seeing nothing out of the ordinary. Doubt that would be consistent across all those different ROMs and apps too. Thanks anyway!
Hallo guys, I really need your help here, since I can't use my phone as a phone right now. Whenever I am speaking with someone on the phone the other person can barely hear me. My voice is really quiet and sometimes it disappeares completely. But when I use my headset it works normal and when I test the mic with there recorder app, it's all good, too. So I think it must be the second microphone which is not working right. Does anybody know how I could turn it off? I would really appreciate it.
I am using the actual LOS in A2017G.

Did you try turning on and off the loudspeaker during a call?

Yes, but it only works while the speaker is on.
I've been investigating all morning and I understand that somehow we have to raise the microphone volume to solve this issue.
In the mobiles qualcomm, You can't access the engineer mode to get that volume up, so the only thing we need is to know which program or what operation we have to do to access that menu that we have under the factory and upload it and solve the problem

Do you happen to hold the the phone in your right hand while on call by any chance? Does your little finger happens to cover the mic located right beside the USB C port while trying to stabilize the phone on a call?
Used to happen to me initially till I figured that is what I kept doing.

Unfortunately I can surely say, that I don't cover the mic.
Nice title btw.:laugh:

Thank you...I don't know what to do with my problem
I'm having the same problem too. Iv tried other phone apps, I tried aosp extended room yesterday, cleaned the mic Hole out, voice recording works crystal clear and decibel testing is fine. Bt Headset works good
I'm using Google dialer and started having the problem after manually updated in a list of apps in the store one morning this week. Fb calls don't work either. The other person can only hear if I blow into the mic and speaker phone works but they can barely hear me if I yell. Getting ready to go to a earlier backup to see if that works.
Also I'm on latest los, magisk 12.? , Su 2.79 and subtratum theme...weird that the same day I noticed this happening I got a error on Google messenger crashing and telling me it was not compatible with my custom theme...but I fixed that...
Ok I found a fix for this issue.
I had to update magisk to 13.3 and apply the mic fix module. To update I downloaded most resent magisk manager, magisk 13.3, magisk uninstaller.
Then I uninstalled/unrooted su 2.79 and uninstalled magisk manager app, rebooted to twrp. Flashed magisk uninstaller and flashed 13.3.
Reboot then installed magisk manager and installed mic fix module and made two calls and a Facebook messenger call and all worked. Screenshot included... good luck...hope another fix comes that's easier.

Thank you very much. This fixed the volume problem. But now the person on the other end can hear himself very loudly. Do you have the same problem?
Yes I have. That's the first thing my friend told me...not sure about that...like I said hopefully another fix comes shortly... should post something on the main lost thread. That or to the person that made the module. I bet @DrakenFX knows a thing or two about how to fix this also.
I did some more research. It actually could be a hardware issue, where the upper mic isn't connected right. But I hope I am wrong.

Nevermind. I tested the top mic and it's working, but it is more sensitive, than the bottom one. If someone has any idea how to lower the sensitivity of this microphone I would really appreciate it. :fingers-crossed:
I was on the latest Havoc OS build with PBH 19 Kernel.Suddenly one day mic stopped working when i was on call in earpiece.It works fine on Speaker mode on stock dialer app as well whatsapp calls(on speaker).It even passed the SMMI test.The problem is only occuring when i turn off speaker. I have to speak really close to the mic for the other person to hear me.I even when back to stock Pie ROM via AFT guide and the same problem is there also.I even disabled google app but no luck.
had same problem, shifted to arrow os everything is fine now, guess you have hardware issue.
I increased mic gain in havoc os,mic is working fine but it's still not a permanent solution.I am thinking of flashing through AFT again but with a different firmware.

It didn't work.Any other solution?It works perfectly fine when on speaker or on whatsapp call.But only on earpiece call,mic does not work unless you speak very close to it.I think its because of the noise suppression.
