Calls on speaker stopped working - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I make calls with speaker on, I can hear the other person but they can't hear me. Just started doing this. Also, Bluetooth speaker has also stopped working, any ideas...?

I had the same problem with the speaker on and no one being able to hear me. Turned out to be a defective phone in my case. Apparently there must be a different mic used for speakerphone calls vs regular calls. Since you also have a bluetooth issue, maybe your problem is different than mine.

just tried hard reset and its still the same, will have to send it back under warranty, major hassle

Flashed 10g again, microphone now works

[Q] Cannot hear phone calls

Tonight i received a call and i could not hear the person talking, although when i put it on loud speaker i could hear them
They could hear me both on and off loud speaker.
Ive tried it again and cannot hear anyone when i make or receive a call but they can hear me. (speakerphone is fine)
Ive rebooted the phone a few times but still not working.
is this another common fault? i had the reboot issue but that stopped since i unrooted the phone.
I should add, the volume is up and i know the sound is working as i hear the phone ringing

[Q] Ear Speaker not working.

The ear speaker stopped working a few days ago, whenever I make or get a call, no sound whatsoever comes from the phone. I've had the phone for five months, and didn't drop it, so I'm not sure why this occurred. I tried resetting the phone, flashing the RUU, and installed a custom ROM. Nothing worked, so it's most likely a hardware issue. I tried putting the headphones on and off, but it didn't work. The external speaker + headphones are working just fine.
Are there any alternative solutions other than sending it for repair? Also, does anyone know how much would it cost to fix it?
Thanks.
any help please?

Same problem for me, it stated by low volume from the ear speaker during some calls, then i lost the ear speaker sound during the call, even that the ear speaker works with the loudspeaker when i switch to loud, and it gives the sound of the tone while dialing, but no sound in the call. I tried to use other ROMs and radios. but same problem.
Any help please
I got the same issue going on... you figure anything out?
(also i didnt check the date on this thread before posting sorry if this is really old ha)

How can I force speakerphone for every call?

Good morning,
Unfortunately my HTC TouchPro 2 is still on the fritz... the microphone seems to be completely fried.
To listen to anyone; I have to put it on speakerphone. (they can hear me fine via regular mic)
So my question to you is, until I can get myself a new phone, is there a way to force speakerphone for all incoming and outgoing calls?
Thanks for all suggestions,
Alec Taylor
PS: Also extremely interested in suggestions for fixing my phones' regular speaker, so I can listen without speakerphone :]

Look up the application auto loudspeaker for WM. It automatically switches to loudspeaker when you pull the phone away from your ear.

Poor call quality / distortion / noise , anyone else?

LG-D855 here on UK Orange (EE) network. I get quite bad noise on voice calls. I think I am clear to the other party but I can hear a bad static sound whenever they talk, it is quite irritating.
Call quality is clear on bluetooth, and and when on loud speaker, it only happens when using the normal internal speaker.
Has anyone else experienced this? Since it is not present across all speaker modes I think it is not a network issue and more likely hardware - I am wondering if I have a faulty handset?

Thanks that is useful. I wondered if it was an EE issue as I had problems with their hd voice codec on a different android handset. But I have just done a lot of testing and it definitely is only when on the normal internal speaker, which really makes me think it is a hardware fault.
Will phone CPW and get it swapped.
Uh, how to unroot?
I'm on 3 and the call quality is excellent, I can now use the phone in places where I couldn't with my s3

Don't worry about it there not going to know about if it's rooted just uninstall supersu or superuser which ever you have
Mine has had good call quality on the hd voice codec, but it drops to a lower codec really quickly during a call, not sure why. and that seams to have a little static. Cant remember if this was what calls were normally like on my old phone though.

Hmmmm. I tested again today and the noise is all gone: calls are crystal clear. I really don't understand what is going on, or whether it is software or hardware related.
I suppose it is best to swap it out before I have had it for too long, just in case?

Useful, thanks.
I have the same issue but only on GSM calls. Weirdly whe. I use Skype the calls are crystal clear which therefore eliminates hardware issue unless it's the GSM attend interfering with the earpiece.
Any ideas what I should do?

How do you adjust the voice codec?

I don't think you can. The operator will alter it according to signal conditions AFAIK.
Just to complete this thread: I have swapped the phone at CPW under their 28 day guarantee and so far the new handset doesn't exhibit this problem. Will update in a few days time.

You dont. Its automatically selected by the network/phone. Mine seams to start off with clear sound then quickly drops to a lower quality and never recovers for that call.

I had the same issue in Slovenia, I changed phone for new one, but the problem is still here. I find out that I hear that noise only when phone is on 2G/GSM.When I switch to 3G/WCDMA only the sound is perfect, also when I use Skype. Did you try to switch on 3G/WCDMA only?
Yeh I tried switching but same issue. I exchange thr phone, no problem with the new one
Hi all, I have a similar problem but the other way around, people that I call hear a lot of static, but ONLY if I am powering the phone. If I connect the phone to a USB port of my PC there is static too, but less. BTW I call using a wired headset.
Other problem, the LG stock headset muffles my voice and people can't hear me well, I had to use a Samsung headset.
Last problem, when I make calls without headset I hear in the phone the sound that you get when placing a phone next to a speaker...
Does anybody have similar problems?
Needless to say I am very disappointed.
BTW, no audio hissing when playing music via Spotify

I have the exact same problem. Have you found a way to solve this? The problem only occurs when I use a wired headset and plug in my charger. No charger plugged in, no noise as per the person on the other end of the call.
kentii, I bought a wireless charger to charge my phone, in which case the problem doesn't appear. I also bought a bluetooth dongle for my desktop to replace the USB connection. I spend a lot of time on the phone and like using a wired headset. I use MyPhoneExplorer to dial from my PC

Microfone issue

Hello,
have a problem with my HTC 10 when I make standard call there is no any problems, but when I switch call to loudspeaker people tell that they can't hear me, phone usually lie on the desk during this calls.
Is this hardware issue, or software? I use Viper ROM. This phone have two microphones right, which one is used with loud speaker call?
Hello, the same speaker like without Loudspeakermode. Try another ROM at first Stockrom, shouldn't help this i recommend to contact your seller.
speaker no matter if phone is at the ear or call is in "speaker" mode works without any problem,
my problem is with microphone but only on "speaker" mode because then other side can't hear me.
to resolve it, I've bored out the microphone hole on the bottom of the case enough to make sure the mic is fully exposed and that appears to have done the trick.
