Galaxy S6 :: How To Get Microphone Working - It Does Not Pick Up Audio
Jun 12, 2015
Call recipients can't hear me when I make calls. I first thought it may be connection issues or something, but literally every call the person on the other end can't hear me. I can hear them fine however. So I tried recording me talking with the voice recorder and can't hear anything either. Not sure if it uses the same microphone, but when I shoot video it does pick up the audio. I just got this phone and was really happy with it until now.
When making or receiving voice calls via my network operator's service, no one can hear me, i.e my audio input. I can hear the person on the other end of the phone fine but they can't hear me whatsoever. However when I use the likes of viber, skype and facetime, my audio input is perfectly fine and the person on the other end of can hear me. Note both viber and skype calls work just fine and 2 way communication is audible regardless if I have a 3G or Wifi connection. Plus I have full signal bar strength when near a mobile tower so that eliminates antenna issues. Also have taken alternative turns to cover both the top mic and the bottom mic during a viber or skype call and my audio input can still be heard. I've done a reset, a hard reset of the phone and a reset of the network settings, still to no avail. Have updated iOS to the latest version 5.1.1.
Just got this phone out of the box and activated and the mic is not working... not when I'm on speaker phone, not while using Google Now or the voice recorder. And when I record it's getting absolutely no noise at all. However, it does work with an external headphone mic and over Bluetooth.
I've tried turning it off and removing and reinserting the SIM card, deleting the cache, using a small pin to clear the mic hole of "debris." Nothing is working. Firmware is apparently up to date.
Updated to Lollipop last night Verizon OTA, "ok Google" not working further investigating the mic will not pick up at all in any application. I did a factory reset did not work, rebooted in recovery mode and cleared the cache, did not work.
After using a Bluetooth headset, all phone audio & microphones have stopped working. Bluetooth is off and even with a wired headset or speaker, I cannot hear or be heard on a phone call. Function still not restored after shutdown, reboot, or firmware reinstall.
When I make or receive a call, I don't hear the other party and the don't hear me. Before posting, I have searched and exhausted every potential fix for this problem I could find on this forum. Can anybody make any techincal suggestions?
all buttons work properly screen functions normally ringer/text message/email sounds still working properly volume set to max replaced ear speaker with one from a known working pearl 8130 profile set full loud attempted battery pull media player does not make any sound through phone anymore but does through headphones cdma v4.5.0.77
i tried searching the forum and the closest similar issue I could find was one on a Storm that was stuck in headset mode. I also tried the cut off qtip cleaning method in the headset port with no luck.I haven't had the chance to try through the factory headphones (lost it) or a bluetooth setup but so far all seems that it would work. When using normal headphones (no mic) I can hear my side of a phone call just fine.
My S5 won't find my home wifi. It doesn't even come up as an option to select in the wifi networks. Other networks can be found, like my grandparents wifi and my neighbours however I can't find my own. Even when I manually add the network using our SSID and network password it just says that the connection is "not in range".
Just got my S6E about 1 hour ago and still setting it up. I have vibration turned off under sounds and notifications, however I'm still getting a buzz every time I pick the phone up.
My Microphone is not working. When I make a call I can hear the other party but they cannot hear me. Usually if I use the speakerphone it will work, but that is not always convenient
I have just installed my ck-200 and all works absolelty perfectly EXCEPT no one can hear me! The microphone in the onscreen display does not appear to be working. I have doulbe checked all the connections - it was a very simply plug and play install, but I checked again anyway and all is plugged in.
My microphone stopped working. All sounds work, but when making or receiving calls no one can hear me. I''ve tried using speaker and the headset but still have the same problem. I have also reset my phone, still no luck.
I have recently updated to latest iOS 5.1 and while I am making a phone call the other side can't hear me. It's not a hardware problem because FaceTime and Skype work OK. It's like my microphone is muted. What have you done to my working iPhone apple??
So i recently updated the phone to 5.1.1 (around tuesday). my last call was on sunday. after this update my microphone isn't working anymore. No one can hear my voice. Video works. Siri recognizes a little bit of noise when I blow in the left hole on the bottom. memo works when I shout at the left hole (you can hear your voice but not that much). so it's not a hardware problem. haven't dropped it or something. in fact the 4s stood the days between the call, the update and the second call in it's stand. I did the restart, reset, bla... things
When I'm trying to talk on the phone mike is not working. I can hear the caller but they cannot here me. It seems phone app is the problem bc when I use different phone app it works.
I updated my phone last week to IOS 7.1.2 and my microphone stopped working while on a call. It works perfectly on Speaker phone and video recording so therefore its not an issue with the mic but must be the software update. I remember having this problem before with an update also.
My microphone for Siri and typing text by speaking is not working. It works using Google, and when using voice memo. I've been told that it may be a firmware issue. I have the latest upgrade. (It's and Iphone 5.)
I have a Nokia E51. Today I found out that the microphone is not working anymore. Yesterday everything was fine, but today when I make or receive calls, people can't hear me speak, while I can hear them perfectly. I tried the recorder, but when I make a record, again I don't hear anything when I play it, so the problem must be in the microphone. I haven't dropped or hit my phone, no accidents, nothing. I even tried to restart it, but it still didn't work.
I have the iPhone 4 and was doing face time and also calling a land line.When using face time or using the speaker phone on land line calls, the person on the other end is not able to hear me.When using the phone in regular mode others have no problem hearing me (non-speaker phone).
when i call or pick up the phone the mic doesnt work i tried diff softare and that did not help the strange thing is all works wen using headset with mic or bluetoothheadset with mic so i now think the mic is broken but i cant find a replacement part anywere
After updating to Lollipop, (I had 5.0.1 and no 5.1.1) my phone started doing really weird stuff. For example, two months ago, sensors stopped working in any moment and I had to reset it for normal behaviour (for a few hours or minutes, depending the day). Well, that stopped one day without doing anything dramatic (I did factory reset two or three times). But now it got even worst: the microphone just stop working while doing simple phone calls. I have tested it in whatsapp audios and android testing and everything seems fine... So I have to reset the phone and it works for a random amount of time. I think this is an Android Lollipop issue, but I haven't been able to confirm that. If so, How to manage it?
I just bought the xperiaz 5 and i cant record voice message or video on the camera.. I had rest the phone and it was ok for a day and now its the same.. in the video on the camera app its says that i have error and a other app i using the function
I've got a weird issue here. Sometimes when I send or receive a call, the person on the other line cannot hear me. The microphone just does not work. I have to switch to speaker phone before I am able to talk. The problem is very random so I haven't been able to determine if it's a software or hardware problem.
My iphone is not working correctly when making normal voice calls, as in, I can hear the person I called but they cannot hear me. The weird thing is, when using skype it works fine.
My iPhone 4's microphone has stopped working [only during calls -- otherwise works fine when playing music, shooting video and voice memos].I am currently restoring my phone as I type.My carrier said that it is a typical iPhone 4 problem, I have never had the issue until this morning.It has nothing to do with my headphone jack either; I have cleaned it and nothing happened.
Info: iPhone 4, iOS 5.1.1, Less than 12 months old
My Normal Microphone is working fine on normal calls but when using speaker phone. Also when using APPS like Fring or Viber. Microphone doesn't work have to use headset.
