Google+ Hangout video chat low volume. - Samsung Infuse 4G

I love my Infuse 4G but when using the Google+ app video chat option my output volume is extremely low. Users on the receiving end of the video chat say they can only hear me when I'm literally shouting into the phone. This problem isn't only phone to phone, it's also phone to computer.
I can hear the person on the other end fine but they can barely hear me, anyone know what this is about? I've tried over wifi and mobile data, my device is in perfect condition and my out going volume for phone calls is fine.
p.s. I used the search option before posting and haven't found anything similar.

[Q] Front Camera in Phone Calls

Alright guys, at the risk of sounding very, very, stupid, I have this question:
How do you utilize the front camera in phone calls?
My friend was doing a conference call on his iPhone the other day and I wanted to do the same, only to realize mid-call that I don't have a camera button available on the menu. Is it even possible to make video calls? I assume that this problem can be rectified via skype calls and such, but I'd like to see if there are any stock options first. You know, something like the iPhone.
Google talk built into the phone, but you would need both parties to have it to work.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
The video call feature on the iPhone is called Facetime, and only works via WiFi. So its actually less capable than Skype or (as mentioned above) Google Talk.
Try Tango video calls.

Record incoming and outgoing calls

Before i had a droid 3, it wasnt possible to record incoming and outgoing calls. I am owning a Photon Q 4g LTE now, and i was wondering if it works with this device or not?
I have Google Voice, which allows me to record incoming calls.
If you want to record any calls, I'd guess you'd need some sort of an app. There are a few... have you tried any of them?
This one I saw on the front page of xda-devs not too long ago.
There's a bunch on the Play Store as well.
There is also a module for Xposed Framework that allows you to record calls.

Indeed, there are a lot of recorders like that, mut some phones like the droid 3 dont support it. The S3 does support.
I have a Photon Q 4G now, and i was wondering if this phone supports it or not.. If you guyz have this phone, i would appreciate if you could install that app called "" in call recorder "" than go to settings of that app -call recorder settings-Audio Source, and select PHONE LINE.
now make phone call, if it works than i know enough..

Well I have this application, and when I have audio source set to PhoneLine only first couple of seconds is recorded correctly, then recorded voice becomes all squeaky and hardly understandable, but no impact on call quiality. When set to Microphone the other party does not hear me at all. I got a response from the author about my issue, he suggested to use Microphone and higher Gain Level, but I haven't tried it yet.When I do I'll post my results.
Unfortunately no help...
Might be a little non-trivial to set up however using Google-Voice adds the functionality to record calls to this phone..
It is a little tricky to get it working correctly with Sprint in general but well worth it! You can record, then access everything online including texting and calling (using your phones number and plan) from the web..
I know some people may not like using google for things like that but it just works so good...

T-Mobile Z3 (D6616) Speaker phone not working

Hello,
Recently I noticed that when I put a call on speaker, I can hear just fine, but the person on the other end can't hear me at all, and in some cases report a loud, windy noise. I don't understand what's causing this, as the normal phone works fine, the microphone records my voice clearly when using a voice recorder, and the video camera records sounds flawlessly.
Could this be an issue with the network? Or does the speakerphone use a separate microphone? Maybe the phone's hardware/software?

I have the same issue with a brand new Z3 from Tmobile as well. Guess what, so does my wife who ordered one on the same day!
The issue we have is that if you switch the phone to speakerphone, there's this crazy background noise that makes hearing someone completely impossible. I read on a different forum that the fix is to go to SETTINGS/CALL SETTINGS/ and turn off the Microphone Noise Canceler. While that does drop the noise out completely, the lack of a noise canceler means the other person can now hear themselves talking when on the phone with you.
I also tried another setting someone recommended which is called CLEAR+, but that sadly didn't have any effect at all.
Anyone else figured this out?
I know this post is old but I seem to have the same problem (minus the noise you guys describe). During an in ear call, the conversation is crystal clear both ways, it is when i place the call on speaker that the other end cannot hear me.
Searching for a solution, I came up with two (some say the OK GOOGLE works perfect, while for others it has no impact).
I have tried the OK Google 'fix' unfortunately, this did not work on my handset. Google app > Settings > Voice > OK Google Detection (switch off)
What seemed to "help" (didn't really fix the problem though) is going into Google Music app > Equalizer > Mic sensitivity > High
While the person on the other end can now hear me, it seems my voice is not too crisp and clear. Not sure what else to do in order to get the mic to work properly over speaker.

WhatsApp Video Conf. Voice issue_After 8.1 OTA upgrade

WhatsApp Video Calling Voice Issue
I am in Canada on Koodo network. After getting OREO 8.1 beta OTA, turns out to be Caller on WhatsApp VIDEO Conf. can't hear the voice at all or there is alot of echo however I can hear the voice clearly.
I have tried Clearing the Cache as well as uninstalling the app without restoring any previous data...Same results. No matter how we initiate Video Conf. session, other party can't hear the voice. (Something May be the Microphone MUTE functionality within Whatsapp isn't recognizing certain settings?)
On the another hand WhatsApp Voice Only Call works OK however not same as the original Nougat platform had. Any help would be much appreciated. Wife is quite upset and wants me to roll back the OS.
Same problem since 8.1b OTA update, all video calls have voices issue at other end. Has tried with Line, Duo and Signal.
The same here. With all the messengers I have. Calling with the phone app is ok but with a messenger the other side can't hear my voice or it is really, really low.
Likewise. I wonder if this will be fixed anytime soon.
Hope it is known by Essential!
Same here....poor audio if any at all during video chat on any app

Apps do not receive mic input but mic itself is in a working state

Recently I am receiving a new error with my Pixel 3. If I use Google Assistant it works perfectly with my voice being recorded as well as keyboard voice input or any voice recorder. Thought when I use apps that require mic for live calls like Discord, Google Duo, Skype or Telegram they do not receive any input and sometimes they do not even provide any output. So basically I cannot talk and sometimes I cannot hear other people talking either.
This is extremely annoying. I am not even able to talk to people because of this. I used bluetooth headset and native pixel headphones during these calls and none of them worked properly.
Anyone ever stumbled upon anything like this? It seems like apps do not receive right permissions (even though I've manually set them) or something else software related. I do not understand how to Google this issue either, most issues are about mic being broken physically or something similar. Any suggestions? I appreciate your attention.
