No Audio After Flashing Stock ROM - Essential Phone Questions & Answers

My PH-1 worked just fine. I did use it for about two months with the official Oreo-beta build. Now, before selling it, I flashed the latest Nougat-build, went through the setup process and installed the latest update. I missed checking for the audio. Now, it seems the audio in calls does not work at all. The caller can not hear the participant and vice versa.
Any suggestions?
/* solution: (thank you WickedDaemon)
Download and flash older NMJ32F Firmware and update from there.

Return to stock and check if u have the same problem.

Thanks for your reply.
But that is exactly what I did. Nougat = latest stock from https://www.essential.com/developer/current-builds

What u mean i missed checking the audio?

I missed checking if calls work. Now you can call or accept a call, but audio won't work. You don't hear the participant and he doesn't hear you.

Same boat here. Flashed with Essential Stock ROM, and everything seemed fine until someone called me. Anyway, I've been banging on this for a couple days. A few things I've tried:
- Tried the VoIP application for my job. No joy..
- Uninstalled/reinstalled Phone app. No joy.
- Installed some other Phone app from Play. No joy.
- Hangouts Dialer seemed to work for a second, but has all sorts of other issues. No joy.
- Reset all data, restored from Google. No joy.
- Reset all data, setup as new phone. No joy.
- Disable OK Google. No joy.
A new clue; the baby monitor app errors out with something about the microphone being in use. But I'm having trouble figuring out which one is locking the mic. Anyone have a trick for this?

It could be a setting in the mobile network for better audio during calls or something like that. Disable that and it will work fine. Happened to me when I went back to stock once.

Are you referring to 'Enhanced 4G LTE Mode'? I just disabled that and tested. No joy.
Side note: After many reboots, reinstalls, and general button pushing, my VoIP app now has sound but still no mic. I removed Microphone permissions on almost everything and started adding them back one by one. Still no joy.
I think something changed within the firmware during the 8 upgrade, then didn't get reverted back during the 7 downgrade. Is there a particular image or partition that needs to be flashed again?

All I do when I switch back and forth is always fastboot -w before I flash and after I flash. May be overkill, but it always works

Older Firmware

I've downloaded and flashed the older NMJ32F firmware and it appears to be working. Going to try the OTA update to NMJ51B and see where that goes.

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).....

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.

How do i get off the beta?

I am currently on the newest beta 7.0, however I am experiencing echoed audio quality through Bluetooth in my car after I updated. I spend a lot of time driving an listening so this echo is driving me insane. So i de-registered from the beta, however how do I now roll back to marshmallow? I have tried factory resetting, and also manually checking for system update and no luck. Any help would be appreciated.
You will have to download and install smart switch on your PC. Once connected it will downgrade you to marshmallow or you can use odin to install the current marshmallow firmware

I'm on the beta too and use BT audio in my car as well without a problem, so you might want to investigate if something else could be causing the problem. Have you tried clearing the cache in recovery?

Just so you know, if you download Smart Switch and revert back to the last update (not Nougat) all of your info will be erased. I hopped off the Beta and thought it would simply revert me back to pre-nougat and it completely wiped everything and I never did a backup. So if you go back, make a backup if you can.

All i use is odin no need for smart switch
Sent from my SM-G935P using XDA Free mobile app
As the others said. You will have to use smart switch to back up, download the stock sprint ROM, then load up Odin and flash the 6.0.1 stuff again. I was having the same issue. Try going into settings for sounds and turn on and off the concert hall setting and see if that helps. Also, even though you de register, my phone still downloaded the same PLN 7.0 beta 5 all over again and tried to install it all over....It's like your phone is always going to be a beta tester.

I did a full wipe of the phone while on the beta, and even on a brand new installation of 7.0 it was doing the same thing. once I got off the beta though and did the smartswitch back to marshmallow the Bluetooth issue cleared up.

[SOLVED] WiFi Completely Broken …

Below is my original post; however, I've since solved the problem. In an effort to help others with the same problem, I've written a Guide, which should explain exactly what to do if your WiFi is suddenly "broken" due to flashing issues.
Here's the link: OnePlus 5 WiFi Fix
Many thanks to everyone who offered help, especially subaash and hallo dare, who put me in the right direction.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings, everyone.
Sadly, for specific reasons unknown, my WiFi appears to be completely broken.
Over the last few days I've gone "flash happy" by trying several Oreo ROMs for my OP5. Some worked while others just froze at the boot animation.
Unfortunately, shortly after flashing the xXx-NoLimits Oreo ROM, which got me to the initial set-up screen, my WiFi would not connect. So, I then bypassed the WiFi part and finished the set-up. Everything seemed to be working very well, but I could not get WiFi to work.
Yes, I could engage the Wifi slider to the ON position, and there would be a list of SSIDs; however, oftentimes even my 2 SSIDs would not display. When they did, and I tried to connect, I would see the connection attempt, but it would not complete the connection. Only the word "saved" would be shown under the SSID name. Then it would automatically try to reconnect, but without success.
I've tried virtually everything I can think of to solve the problem, but I can't connect to WiFi.
All other communications work, i.e., Bluetooth, Data, making and receiving calls. It's ONLY the Wifi that's not working.
Yes, I completely wiped my device and re-installed the original OxygenOS (4.5.14), but that didn't work. I also tried completely wiping the device and then installing that latest OxygenOS v4.5.15, but that didn't solve the problem, either.
I went back and flashed all the previous custom ROMs in an attempt to see if any of them would work, but nothing. I tried NitrogenOS, HalogenOS, Liquid Remix, xXx NoLimits, and they all could not connect to WiFi.
I even tried a few WiFi Fix apps on Google Play, but they didn't work, either.
Oh, yes … I even checked my router. It's perfectly fine. I can get WiFi on my laptop without a problem. Furthermore, when I went to a local coffee shop this morning that provides free WiFi, my phone could not connect, just like at home.
Does anyone have ANY suggestions?
Thank you,
Peter
I would say this is to do with your firmware/modem.
I did have this issue on a non Oreo ROM and in the end I just did a dirty flash and it worked.

Addendum: I found the following site for Firmware & Modems:
https://www.jamal2367.com/?dir=OnePlus 5/Firmware + Modems/Android 7.1.1/OxygenOS

Addendum 2: NOPE! Didn't work. I flashed a few different firmware & modems, 4.5.13, 4.5.14 and 4.5.15, but WiFi is still broken. Yes, I first flashed the appropriate OS version before flashing the firmware and modem. In other words, I always matched the OS version with the firmware & modem version, but no success. Everything works except WiFi. Hmm, still stumped.

Do you have a full rom backup? I mean of the last working rom you had before all the flashing? If so, from a full stock rom (1.53gb or close) of the same build as the backup (ie... 4.5.14) wipe and flash that rom, then wipe and restore the backup you have if the last working rom. If they doesn't work I think you're likely looking at a hardware issue.

So first of all the reason why it is broken is because of the oreo firmware that you flashed earlier. Now what you should do is flash stock recovery and flash the oreo build and boot it up and running. Once you've done that flash the rollback rom (which suppose to downgrade your oreo firmware to nougat firmware). Once you've done it basically it fixes you're wifi issue.

There's a button for that son..
Also the firmware / modem will be the problem, either upgrading or rolling back..either way it'll be the cause.

Do you have a full rom backup? I mean of the last working rom you had before all the flashing? If so, from a full stock rom (1.53gb or close) of the same build as the backup (ie... 4.5.14) wipe and flash that rom, then wipe and restore the backup you have if the last working rom. If they doesn't work I think you're likely looking at a hardware issue.

Okay, let me first answer a couple of questions. Like I said in my first post, I DID flash the original ROM, as well as other OEM OxygenOS ROMs, all without success. Yes, I used the exact same ROM that was working perfectly before the problem. Yes, I also had a FULL Nandroid of the working system, but restoring that also did nothing to solve the problem.
Okay, with that out of the way, I went to a repair shop this morning to try and solve the problem. It was unsuccessful. The technician said it's unlikely to be hardware related because I can still get the phone to recognize all local SSIDs. I simply can't connect to any of them. Just like hallo dare said in his post a few back, when I try to connect to my SSID, it tries to connect for a second or two, and then it just shows "saved" and wifi is disabled.
So, for now I'm still completely stumped.

So first of all the reason why it is broken is because of the oreo firmware that you flashed earlier. Now what you should do is flash stock recovery and flash the oreo build and boot it up and running. Once you've done that flash the rollback rom (which suppose to downgrade your oreo firmware to nougat firmware). Once you've done it basically it fixes you're wifi issue.

There's a button for that son..
Also the firmware / modem will be the problem, either upgrading or rolling back..either way it'll be the cause.

Okay, I will do exactly what subaash said and report back. I, too, agree that it's probably software related, which is why I'm actively attacking this issue.
Be back as soon as I can.

P.S. "Son?" Hmm, I have a sneaking suspicion that I'm older than you (will be 60 in March).
Success ... maybe?
Well, well. It appears the previous suggestions were correct. So far it's successful, but I haven't quite finished the initial set-up. All I can say is that WiFi is working, and I'm grateful for that.
However, it was a frightening ordeal. At one point I thought my device was bricked, and I didn't know what to do. However, with some thought, I was able to solve the problem.
Good news, though, is that I DID NOT have to revert back to Nougat. I'm now running Oxygen Oreo 8.0.0 Open Beta 2.
I will provide a detailed instructions of what I did a bit later. I simply want to get everything up-and-running, which could take a few hours.
Here's an abbreviated version:
Downloaded Oxygen Oreo 8.0.0 Open Beta 1 from here:
http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-5/oneplus_5_oxygenos_openbeta_1/
Downloaded Stock Recovery from Post #2 here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003
Copied both files above to root of device internal storage
Reboot into TWRP recovery
Flashed stock recovery in TWRP
Reboot into stock recovery
COMPLETELY Wiped the entire system ... absolutely everything ... including internal storage. This is where I had the initial problem. I did not wipe everything, including internal storage, and I ended up with a mixture of jumbled numbers and letters when looking at the file structure.
Using ADB Sideload within the stock recovery, I "moved/flashed" the ROM ZIP to the device
After successful sideload, I said yes to installing the ROM
The ROM then installed and, voila, I'm at the initial set-up screen.
Okay, that's all for now. I'll be back later.

Format data resolves the problem (at least with me...)

Mms stoped working

Hello all,
I am running the XT1768 variant, Qualcomm version, rooted with Resurrection Remix version 5.8.5 unofficial. I have twrp as my recovery.
Everything was going smoothly until mms blew up. I can't send or receive pictures/files at all.
Here's what I've done so far:
I've checked the apn settings at least a dozen times and they are correct as per my carrier's website.
Tried different messaging apps and the problem persists through all of them.
I've reached out to my carrier and my favorite texting app developers and they have no clue.
I got a momentary reprieve when I force stopped the messaging service and rebooted the phone, but that trick is no longer working somehow. I tried it three times before coming here.
Everything else is working perfectly, including humongous texts. I am so confused right now.

Try a clean install of your rom. Or even a dirty flash first to see if you borked something.

If that fails try returning to stock to see if the problem persists. Occationally mms dysfunction can be upstream and require carrier involvement.

A dirty flash seems to have done the trick,though I will say I used a different download for the flash. Loving it so far.
Thank you for the help!
Davey216, I will keep that in mind if it comes back. Stock is kinda icky but I need my mms. Thank you for the reply!

problem with the voice transmission circuitry. no voice recognition

so, i will try my luck. first thing is, i have a xt1684 retgb. atm i'm on full stock oreo firmware, a backup that i made where everything should have worked fine. after the issue appeared i restored the backup. but yea, it still persists. what a *****y phone.
now i have the problem, that in any case no voice is recognized neither via the build-in mics nor over a plugged headset.
neither a full stock flash to oreo nor to nougat changed it. everything else seems to be working as it should.
really guys, give me any hint to get rid of this. everything is welcome. :fingers-crossed: i count on you. cheers
okay got a little success in camera. in there i got my voice back after re-enabling mic permission in settings. but it doesn't help on google search e.g. .
i got my mic back working. but i still can't tell what caused it. maybe something equal to the problem that causes no touch issue. don't know. flashed a few stock and rom until it worked again. it was a work or die mission. as mentioned in the stock oreo thread it is really neccessary to let every stock flash finish with the initial setup (even if skip everything) till you are on launcher homescreen.
