Mute while calling - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have a Galaxy S4. Since three days ago I can't hear nothing during calls. At the beginning, it was mute. Now sometimes I hear like a whistle. I have flashed two different ROMs; first a 5.0.1 and then a cyanogen 5.1.1 but the problem isn't solved. What can i do? thanks.
PS I don't think it is a hardware problem because if I do whatsapp calls it works great. Please help me.

hmmm...i cant directly answer but ...sometimes happens to me.
when i am in a call i accidentically press the mute button with my ear...thats because of damaged(?) proximity sensor?

Optimus L5 problem with the microphone in calls on CyanogenMod 10.1 - Beta 5

Hello, I'm currently having some problems with my Optimus L5 ... When making or receiving a call, the microphone stops working completely, I hear the other person normally, but the other person can not hear me. The curious thing is that when I activate the speakerphone, the mic works normally. Another way that works normally is when I connect the headset and talk to your internal microphone. Already tested programs recording voice and music recognition and apparently all work perfectly . For this reason I think that the problem is not the mic itself but a software problem .. But I remember I did not touch anything in the system that it was the microphone, and a few days ago everything worked normally ..
If anyone knows any solution please help me, I'm going crazy with this problem and I am still unable to make or receive calls, it is really annoying ..
Sorry for bad english, I'm Brazilian, this is the google translator...
weird,i have not do a call with beta5,but now i test it.
edit,have tested and for me its working fine.no issues

@-CALIBAN666-, this problem is not in beta 5, I know this because I use the CM 10.1 since beta 2 and it never happened... this problem appeared after a long time using the beta 4.2. I thought the beta 5 would solve my problem somehow, but unfortunately did not...

[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.
can someone edit this..?
same here~
but can someone test or edit file default_gain.conf maybe it will solve our prob
Thanks

[Q] Viber speaker phone always on -[ROM]【5.0】Google Play Edition【LRX219】-12-24-2014

[Q] Viber speaker phone always on -[ROM]【5.0】Google Play Edition【LRX219】-12-24-2014
@Danvdh and team
Simply thank you for this gift. I have on issue with Viber app that I like to share:
I am using the ROM from this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353
Clean installed with TWRP with phone setup as new.
1. When I call someone through viber app and or receive a call through viber, speaker phone is always on and I cannot turn it off. Has anyone else have this issue and resolved it or is it some settings that I may have mistakenly ticked off?
See the attached screen shot of the viber call and you will notice that the speaker icon it greyed out and it is always greyed out. I cannot turn it off as it is greyed out.
Please help????
Apologies to bump my post here.. this is an issue here and I am hoping some one can help me. Any viber call is always on the speaker phone. How can I make viber call normally please.
Mobile phone calls work perfectly,
quick workaround

Hello, hannah187. I had the same issue. Just reinstall Viber and the problem will be gone. I just don't know for how long.
I'm a bit worried because I've never had such problem with the stock ROM. It's important to keep this topic alive until we have a real fix.
Thanks.

First of all, my issue is fixed now but strange fact is I did not reinstall viber. It's just fixed now. I understand that code does not lie so perhaps I have changed some settings which may have fixed it but honestly I do not know.
I know that when I did a clean install of this ROM, viber was working correctly and I have checked it. After couple of days, I can no longer make viber call through ear piece. I only can use speaker phone.
I do not think I have changed any settings, but viber now seems to work as expected and I can make viber phone calls normally as well as through speaker phone. I do not know how this has happened.
Well it seems that I have spoken too soon. From last night, viber speaker phone icon is again greyed out, in other words, I can only make the Viber phone calls through the speaker phone and no ways to disable it. Back to square one.
Happy New Year, @Viber Team!
???????????????
funny that ...is that going to fix it
Hi.
I have similar issue with the latest version of viber at my samsung galaxy s4 i9505 android 5.0.1
When i receive or make a call with phone NOT viber the speaker turns on itself until i press the speaker two times so i hear the call not from the speaker.
I understand that it was viber fault because when i completely uninstall the viber never had this issue again.
So is there any solution so we can have viber installed without that kind of issues?

[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!

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.

Help : Microphone Issue with N910F

Hi guys
I've had the Note 4 for a while but only had an issue I think after the marshmallow update. The microphone doesn't seem to pick up any sound: tried to record a voice memo and it's blank. WhatsApp calls, the other person can't hear anything, Snapchat doesn't record any sound. Weird thing is that when I call someone with the normal dialler it picks up sound fine. A restart fixes the mic issues and works well, but after charging the phone the mic stops working again. Any solutions?
Unlocked, Not rooted, Knox tripped though, & running android 6.0.1
I have the exact same issue when I moved to the German 6.0.1 N910FXXS1DPE6 ...
Restarting fixes it but is a pain in the ass
