Urgent fix for mic problem - Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1 Questions & Answers

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.

[Q] i9500 Low Mic Issue

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
Best ,
Z.

Thanks

[Q] microphone issue

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!
"ok Google" in all page its very confortable but if the phone still dont call, nothing to do!

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.

Samsung galaxy s4 (9505) Problem with mic

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.

Turn off second microphone for noise cancellation

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.

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:

HELP PLEASE: Unable to Hear Calls When Connected Through Headset

I have clean installed [JDCTeam][7.1.2][16 Aug]Optimized LineageOS 14.1-Version6 into my S4 i9505. Everthing works fine except one.
The issue I am facing is :
Whenever I make a outgoing phone call normally through keeping the phone to ear or through speaker, I am able to hear the ring sound and other party talking, all good.
When I am connected to headphone and make outgoing phone call, it shows as call connected with seconds started running but I can't hear anything (no ring sound, other end person sound, my sound, etc).
If I make a call through ear piece or speaker, once I start to hear ringing sound coming during that time, after that if I connect to my headphone I can hear everything fine.
It's annoying that I couldn't hear anything when connected to headphone.
I hope I have made myself clear with my issue and it would be great help to me if anyone can help me.
Thanks in advance.
If the problem isn't present with a stock rom, it's a software bug with the custom ROM and you may have to use a different custom ROM.

I am facing this issue from MM and Nougat Roms. I tried many Roms and all end the same.
What about stock roms?

No issues on stock Rom, even no issue on Kitkat and Lollipop custom roms. It's just with MM and Nougat it's giving this issue. I tried many MM and Nougat Roms, and all have the same issue.
