I updated to the latest 2.3.4 and have tried calling two different people on their computers from my Nexus S using the video chat. They were running the GChat Video in their web browsers. Neither one of them could hear me talk. Is anyone else having this issue? Did I flash incorrectly or something? Everything else works fine.
It might sound stupid/obvious, but never the less, please confirm that you did not mute the mic by touching the mic icon accidentally.
I had the same thought so I clicked it a couple of times. On or off, no sound.

The issue only seems to be with some of my friends computers. I had a friend install the latest plugin for voice and video chat and he could hear me just fine. Maybe they have an old plugin?
While I've greatly enjoyed this phone, there is one glaring issue that's made it impossible to enjoy it to the fullest. I am a man that appreciates music, and I'd love to use my phone to listen to it, but whenever I plug in a set of headphones most music apps begin exhibiting erractic behavior.
* Headphones are recognized as headsets
* Music app randomly skips between songs
* Music app's UI is crippled due to random changing between screens
* Music apps randomly start, often more than one at once.
I've done this on multiple ROMs, rooted, unrooted, and while performing ancient pagan rituals, but there's no change. I've scoured several forums, and no matter what I try, I am unable to squeeze some function out of this. I have used the Headset Blocker app, though only on one ROM, and it worked exactly once before ceasing to function.
Please, I am at the end of my rope. If any of you have any insight, for the love of god, share it!

Headset blocker did it for me. There was one time that I guess I had gotten dirt in the headset port. After blowing it out, headset blocker worked again.

Is the headset blocker a hardware attachment or an application? I'm also plagued by this problem on the Inspire...I'd love to be able to use my phone to play music in my car, but it does the same thing as the OP...and it constantly starts voice commands and doing random things. (I've tried using an app killer to kill voice commands as well, but I've not had any luck).
Thanks

It's an app. Search for it in the play store.

So, I noticed an odd behavior with Google Now. If I have Bluetooth on and it's connected to my Moto T505 car speaker, when I go to use Google Now (or Voice Search) it keeps saying initializing. It does not do this if Bluetooth is on but not connected. It also does not seem to do it with my Moto S305 headset.
Has anyone else seen this?

I have this same issue with my Sony Xplode and my note 2
however if i back out of google now and back in it will work.
It hangs on "initializing" the first time. This also happened with my Galaxy nexus.
If someone finds a fix that would be sweet!

Great, I get to finally use smart voice commands via Bluetooth with this phone . . . and it requires that I first enable one of the most annoying user interface options available.

Solved!
Still no fix coming from Google, but at least one nice guy made a temp fix while they do it.
Look for "Voice Command" app on Google Play. Developer's name is IT-DEV-CROWD or code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42178#c37
It worked for me, after trying a lot of different configurations.
Running currently cm 10.1 #165 - when I'm listening to music the DSP equalizer just shuts down randomly - music is going on, just without the eq. Apparantly the only way of fixing this is restart the music player.
Also, sometimes it takes ages to switch the track via the volume buttons.
Any ideas what might cause this? I tried the usual (clear cache, clear app data) with no effects.

Wellp, the cause is apparantly when the phone switches from 3g to edge .. now this is strange.
Can be reproduced if 3g is currently available: Start music, enable 2g only mode, DSP crashes as soon as the phone switches to edge.

If you're referring to the modem which comes with the JB update - nope, still running on the modem which comes with stock 4.0.4. Totally forgot about that .. should the latest modem (e.g. mirrored by kilrooy here - or is there a newer one?) fix that issue?
Your modem crashes your phone and updating it hasn't occurred to you? LOL. In answer to your question, you tell me if it works.
As of right now we are not *requiring* users to upgrade but as soon as 3.4 goes live it will be required for functionality.

I somehow didn't see the connection / forgot completely that I didn't update the modem, lol.
So I've updated it.. seems the issue isn't completely gone. If the phone connection reestablishes for whatever reasons there is just a little interruption in playing music, but dsp does not crash.
However, yesterday it crashed two times while there were no connection issues.. one time screen on, other time screen off.

Hi there everyone,
I've regularly been getting reports that during a call, the other party notices the mic volume on my PQ drops - sounds like I'm far away from the phone.
More info: also does it when using bluetooth headphones, tried different sets

Might want to mention what you're running. I have the same problem in CM11, and it's always been like that. Wonder if it's CM specific. I don't have problems if I hold the phone flat to my face, but I don't like putting something that's had hands all over onto my face.
Running Pac Rom KK RC3 at the moment.

Please edit /system/build.prop to change 'ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype' from 'fluence' to 'none' and then reboot.
Let me know if it helped.
This change will disable the qcom fluence noise cancellation algorithm (unless 'persist.audio.fluence.voicecall' is set to true as well, but it shouldn't be - you can check the audio properties by 'su', then 'getprop | grep audio' command run from adb shell or terminal emulator on phone).

Thanks for this - I have had a look using terminal, and sdk.audio is set to fluence. Now I just need some guidance on changing this to 'none'. Can I do this through the phone, or do I need to plug in my puter?

Hey thanks - once I turned on ES File Explorer's root options etc I was able to edit. Rebooting now, & will see if I get anymore complaints.

I'd welcome feedback on this property change (ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=none) as I'm considering to make it default in CM (if there will be agreement on it between the few moto_msm8960 maintainers).
It really seems to help the voice clarity heard by the remote party on the other end of the phone call in my case, both using my Photon Q and also Razr HD.
Motorola stock sets it to 'none' as well, and I seem to see (hear) the reason for it now...
I've been using it for a little bit - can't confirm precisely yet, I'll have to test a bit longer. Some calls are still having issues I think.
I'm also thinking about going down a few notches with ROM's - just getting a lot of lagging & stoppages with PAC rom KK RC3

I can confirm that it hasn't fixed the issue - I am still getting complaints that I sound like I'm far away, or it sounds like my phone is in my pocket to the other party.
It is intermittent however.

I updated the build on this phone, and have had a lot of complaints from very quiet Bluetooth. I changed the 'fluence' to 'none' again & will see what happens.
Any other ideas on bluetooth mic settings? Sometimes it is the phone mic also.

This has reached the point where I can call one person (or they call me) 5-6 times, and they can't hear me - using BT or handset mic, but I can call someone else in between & they hear me fine.
Almost like it is a network/service provider compatibility issue - used to be that iPhone's had trouble hearing me, but my wife's iPhone doesn't so that idea was scrapped (yes she has one, but she also has a great ass).
Now running ICS on second handset, and no problems yet. I'll try ICS on first handset in a couple of weeks & see if that fixes the issue.
Its either going to be hardware or software/rom- possibly something to do with managing the call to BT.
The fact that it happens intermittantly on BT or handset mic, even after reboot makes me think software.

I wonder if you are encountering the same 'bug', in which case flashing stock would resolve your problem. Obviously his issue is with notifications, but I wonder if his workaround resolves it for you.

It sounds kinda like what I had going on- rocking the volume did seem to help the BT volume/calls sometimes for me also.
Its like the phone doesn't know how to manage the audio/mic.

My other handset running ICS works fine - however there are some annoyances with ICS - stops charging while in car dock etc.
So I've just loaded Carbon onto the original handset (both actually) that was having volume issues, and I will test & report I the volume/mic/BT issues have gone.
Sent from my PHOTON Q using XDA Free mobile app
Carbon is working well, I did have a complaint that the mic was muting again during a call just once - seemed to happen when I changed my grip in the phone - this may have shifted the slider very slightly, so I've swapped out the whole screen/ribbon assy to see if it makes any kind of difference - don't know why it would, possibly a faulty track causing a disturbance.
Have yet to test BT.
Sent from my PHOTON Q using XDA Free mobile app
BT & mic are failing in the same way with Carbon. I've tested long enough & tried a number of variables (headsets etc).
I have tried it on 2 handsets, with full wipe/clean installs.
I'm convinced it is a software issue and is affecting different roms, so at some stage this bug has slipped into the builds unnoticed.

Carbon / PAC / lots of ROM's are heavily based on CM, so if it's affecting CM it usually affects a lot of other ROM's as well.
FIXED!
By going back to JB stock, stripping out unwanted apk's & bloat (sprint etc), and adding some features with xposed framework.
Don't miss any of the fancy vagina stuff either.
