Issue with the microphone, it is fine when recording etc but on call, its very low - UMi Z Guides, News, & Discussion

Hey guys,
Recently, I have been having this issue with the UMI Z, where the other person can not hear me very well. The microphone works fine for everything else, it is just during calls it is low, i literally have to shout for the other person to hear me. Is there anyone facing this issue or is there a fix to it? can i somehow change the microphone settings (cant seem to find such a thing)?
thanks, appreciate the help!

Must say nougat is running fine ...no issues at all

I have the same problem after updating (ota) fom 7.1.1 beta to final version

Turn off the noise reduction under phone -> settings -> calling accounts

Thanks...will try that...though I found it under Accessibility instead of Calling Account

Problem with Bluetooth handsfree

Hey guys,
When im connected to my car's hands-free system via Bluetooth, whenever I receive a call and I pick up, I can hear the other party for about 2 seconds, then nothing...
The call doesn't drop but neither I nor the second party can hear each other . It's as if we've both muted the call.
If I'm making the call, however, everything works just fine...
I've updated my ROM (v4.0.4 Sense v4.1) and changed my kernel (Faux123 007)
I don't have this problem on my DHD ..
Any ideas?

I'm sorry for bumping this thread, but the problem is still there and no one has replied to it.
I haven't been able to find any solution yet.
Hopefully someone can help me out..

Intermittent sound problem on g pad

Hey all, I couldn't find a solution online, so thought should ask here.
So gurus, could i borrow ur brains here for a sec. The problem I'm facing is, sometimes sound from my g pad suddenly stops working, i mean no sound at all from the speakers, but starts working after a while or after a restart or if a skype call comes in and u receive it, then starts working again.
I'm thinking skype might be the culprit, I mean i havent tested it heavily, but last night either i was calling someone on skype and the otherside didn't pick up and call cancelled itself or was talking to someone on skype and then noticed after a while, the same no sound issue when i turned the screen on and what i did was bring up recent apps and clicked clear all and magically sound is back
The problem is, can't seem to find anyone else having this problem. And it seems intermittent, sometimes everything works and sometimes there's not sound when i turn the screen on and there are skype missed calls
sorry forgot to add, its an lg g pad 8.3 v500 20d, non GPe
and has got latest official 4.4.2(wonder why isnt there any 4.4.4 out there for this) and latest skype

Callee: very bad audio when calling

Recently I have been getting very bad sound when calling someone.
I can hear the callee perfectly but they can barely hear me, I sound like a 'fish in the water' or with a very big 'echo'.
This has been the case after updating to Lollipop.

I Am Assuming you are using Stock Lollipop FW from Sony
Head to Settings>Call
Enable Microphone Noise Suppression, Set the Equalizer to Bright and enable the Speaker Voice Enhancement
Also make sure you are on Max Volume when In-calls

Nope, I only tried the solution suggested above, I have yet to encounter the problem again.
I just tried same thing with equalizer. I will see if this will work. @Devenda, any news since 2 days ago?

Nope, still stable, I tested it but the audio was clear.
Problem is that this issue comes and go's randomly, so all I can do at this moment is wait...
None of the suggestions described worked for me. This bugged me so much I was forced to run to RR rom.. Problem solved but I miss Sony's great battery life ??
I have the same problem.
Only the equaliser was different (normal), I've changed it to bright and will see.
Don't you think it is a problem with radio reception ? I'm not sure but I think I have not the same number of bars than before. I haven't got an other 4G phone to compare.
Equaliser doesn't work for me.
I have changed prefered network, it was 4g prefered. I've changed to 3g. It seems to be working.
Can somebody try ?
I solved my problem during the calls when i unchecked the improvement of voice
If you have tried all the other options and still not working but you have v4a sound mod installed, this might help - http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/help/viper4android-deactivates-mic-t3124764
I had same problem after update to lollipop and try everything mentioned before and nothing helped. Then I low down speaker volume ( volume key down) while call is active and that worked for me. I suppose that lollipop have some problem with duplexer. Level of sound in speaker is litle low but at least caller can understand me normally.

Greetings, I hope you are fine.
I'll just let you know my experience with that, I had a similar one to yours. Instead my voice was stuttering and ghostly, like something came out of Paranormal activities. xD
The only solution I found to this was that it was a problem with the hardware itself, IE. the mic of your phone. Maybe you wanna give your phone to the warranty company and see what they say about it. In my case, they fixed it and it's working fine now.
I hope I helped
Yours.

Did you ever get his resolved? Having a similar issue. I think noise reduction mic is messing with audio during calls. Saw people with Oppo's had a similar issue but can disable via build.prop but unsure how to do this on asus. Running cm13

Microphone problem when I use speaker phone - S9

Hello,
The microphone doens't work on my S9 when I use the speaker phone. The people do not hear me. I have no problem in normal call mode.
I tested to call in "safe mode" but the problem always appears.
Thank you for your help!
No idea?
Same problem here (replace xx by tt) : hxxps://us.community.samsung.com/t5/forums/v3_1/forumtopicpage/board-id/GalaxyS/thread-id/51619/page/12
Thank you!
Up
m also having the same problem, but also While video recording
Same problem here. Only when HD calling is enabled. If you disable HD calling, the problem should go away. I'm hoping the first software update fixes it. Just to be clear the problem is that the other person cannot hear you when on speakerphone. You should be able to hear them clearly and have no idea there is a problem unless they tell you that you sound muffled or like you are underwater. Turn off HD calling on Verizon and it goes away.
Thank you for your solution. I disabled the HD calling ("4G calling" in French) and the voice can be heard now. But the quality is very very bad! It is scandalous for a phone of this price!
Is there an other solution to improve the microphone quality during a call with speakerphone?
Thank you!
HD Calling?
I have the same issue, but have no idea how to disable HD Calling ( I'm on Sprint BTW). These minor issues are ticking me off; I've already had for factory reset once due to Camera settings crashing the app.. . now this nonsense. Phone isn't even 14 days out of the box, and its DEFINITELY not an "third party-app" issue. Bad time to switch from iPhone, huh? This is unacceptable for a $300 phone, nonetheless a $1K phone.
Hello, I have the same issue, on VoIP apps like WhatsApp as well. https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...rphone-loudness-clarity-t3746298#post78757253
Does anyone experience the same problem on custom ROM?

Same problem here, first on Note7, now on Note9. Disabling HD calling did not fix it for me.
any solution for it ? please post solution
I've discovered the issue is that the phone attempts to mute your microphone while the speaker is playing sounds. (If you're on the phone with someone they have background noise or are talking) and your phone's microphone attempts to lower the sensitivity so that the person whom you are speaking with doesn't hear an echo of themselves on their end. If they aren't making a sound then you can be heard normally. This is the downfall of my S9+ because the speaker and microphone are right beside each other.
