The phone's microphone does not work during phone calls, the caller hears only noises and crackles. When recording in the default recorder is the same, but when I switch the recording mode to interview mode or meeting mode the microphone works properly and there is no noise. Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be? I have restored the phone to factory settings, reinstalled the software and still the same problem.

Since flashing 7.1 my sound goes in/out. Sometimes it's all audio, or sometimes just certain things. Right now I get audio in apps and when changing the ring tone volume, but when selecting a ring tone or notification tone, I don't hear anything. Sometimes the dialing noise works, sometimes it's doesn't. Rebooting and/or change my profile doesn't help. I tried changing the overrides in the profile settings and that didn't do anything either.
Anyone had this problem or know how to fix it?
So this only started happened after you flashed CM7? I had a somewhat similar problem because I replaced the back assembly on my phone and replaced the speaker in the process as the old was blown. Apparently, a screw had attached itself to the speaker and was keeping it from seating correct and causing audio to go in it out. In point, it could be a hardware problem and something is wrong with your speaker. Does head phones work, or the actual ear piece?
The speaker works because my phone rings when someone calls me, but sometimes the notification sound doesn't work when I get a text message. At this moment I still can't hear ring tones when I select them in the Sound settings, but it works when I get an incoming call. I know the speaker works fine. Phone calls work normally and if I play a Youtube video I get normal audio (but that didn't work this morning). It definitely seems like a software issue.
My phone was on unrooted Sense before 7.1 so that's all I have to compare it to, but everything worked fine then.
I found out if I switch from Default to Home profile, everything works again, but I can't figure out what in the Default profile is stopping the noise. I've checked everything 10x over.
wow i am currently having the exact same issue
Sound isn't working again. I only have one profile and yesterday I was getting sound with SMS, now I just get vibration. This is really frustrating. Anyone know what to do?
I really wish all the sounds/notifications were set in one place, instead of in the app, in the sound options, AND in the profiles. It's really confusing.
I think it's linked to bluetooth. If I use my headset for a call then turn off bluetooth, there is no audio on the phone (either speaker) until I reboot.
Hi, All.
I have a Samsung S4 and from day 1 I have had this call problem.
When I make or receive calls, the person on the other end cannot hear my voice at all. I have disabled noise reduction both in the settings menu and have toggled it on/off during the call.
Now, I've done a few tests.
1) During calls the other person can hear noises that I simulate such as tapping on the table or tapping on the phone. I tested both the top (for noise cancellation?) microphone and lower microphone and the tapping noise is definitely louder on the lower microphone.
2) Voice works perfectly when using my headset. (Not a network issue)
3) Tested voice recording and it works fine. I spoke on the top of the phone and bottom of the phone (to see if it receives noise on the top microphone) and the voice is definitely louder when voice is coming from the bottom of the phone.
4) Voice command works fine.
5) Calls work find during speaker mode.
Now all I can think of is that this is a problem with my setting or this is a software issue.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks,

So I've factory reset my phone.
Results are I can now BARELY hear my voice SOMETIMES.
Like for example I try speaking in a completely silent environment, they only way the caller hears my garbled up voice is when I cup to phone my mouth.
This even won't work if I turn on the noise reduction feature.
So I'm guessing there is still some noise reduction feature on apart from what we can activate/deactivate during the call and in the settings menu.
Is my voice that ugly that it's now considered to be noise!? I've been told that I have a radio voice :laugh:

Well cant say whats the main cause of the issue may be the mic has some issue
If possible b4 showing it to service centre flash a firmware using Odin and reset the device and then see if the problem is gone check the voice b4 installing any apps etc
On calls if i enable loud speakers the other person can't hear me ( i still can hear him ) but if i record a video or record my sound it works fine but it doesn't on calls how can i fix it?? it's probably not a software issue because ı tried a lot of roms/kernels/modem/bootloaders wiped data factory resetted ı tried anything possible i think it's a hardware issue but it still might be some software issue so i ask you what should i do?
I thought there might be some dusts so i put a toothpick on the mic to clean it and tried with a removed case, disabled noise reduction still no fix
Hello,
Can someone please heeeelp me, I have a Samsung s4 I9505 that I bought with a problem:
When I call someone I can hear perfectly but the other person hears a crackling sound and almost no sound but ONLY IN NORMAL CALL mode, when in SPEAKER it seems to work just fine, also with the headset the crackling sound persists.
The problem also persists in any app like viber, watsapp, voice recorder..
Things I have tried:
Restarting, factory reset
Different firmware like Kitkat 4.4 and Lollipop 5.01
Changing the charge dock with the microphone
Is there another microphone that is activated while on speaker mode than on normal call or what is the difference between normal call and speaker mode?
Hi,
Today my phone when I make a call or receive a call, the default is speaker and I hear the sound from speaker, and speaker button is not activated, not green, the speaker is not turned on and I hear sound from speaker, why this is happening?
If I plug the phone on dock and I remove I hear sound normally, but when I make another call or receive I hear sound from speaker.
I checked everything, S voice, driver mode...
Anyone can help?
Thanks.
Help?
