Not sure if this happened directly because of a ROM. I flashed Skyfall. Did a full wipe, checked MD5, and no luck. Callers can't hear me unless I do speaker phone, which uses the microphone on the back. Google Now doesn't pick up my voice unless I stick my mouth near the microphone and yell.

Issue : When I attend an incoming call, I'm not able to hear the other party's voice. I can hear only my own voice back, but they say they can hear me just fine.
Contrast : No such issue when I make an outgoing call. All voices are just very fine.
When it started : Went back to stock 2.3.5 Indian ROM and restored from the Titanium backup taken while on Titanium S V2.1. But this is just the lst thing i remember doing before the issue.
Troubleshoots tried:
Software: Factory reset, on stock 2.3.5, and Titanium Rom with nothing installed other than the pure base OS.
Hardware : tried cleaning the mic opening (ya i know, but just a try), clicked the volume rocker a few times during the call.
Both did not help.
Google: There were 3-4 exactly similar issues on other models, but no one could find a fix, nor an update on how it went.
I dont think this is a hardware issue as the voice is fine when I make the call.
Guys... help me out....
Now that's weird. Don't worry we'll try to solve it.
Further you can troubleshoot by:
1. To rule our any possibility of the Receiving speaker being faulty, open your dialer and input this code (*#0*#). Now select 'Receiver(White)' from it. You should hear continuous sound from your Receiving Speaker, if not then its not working.
2. Trying to make a call using a landline phone so as remove the possibility of caller having any network issues and use a SIM from a different network provider on your handset to ascertain if its a network problem.
3. Is there a small popup with a heading something like 'In call volume' when using the volume rocker while receiving an incoming call ?
4. And does it at least show increase or decrease in the bar on the popup of 'In Call volume' graphically when you press corresponding volume rocker keys ?
Do post here what were the outcomes and also if you find what was wrong.
Thanks for your suggestions, Eagle..
1. To rule our any possibility of the Receiving speaker being faulty, open your dialer and input this code (*#0*#). Now select 'Receiver(White)' from it. You should hear continuous sound from your Receiving Speaker, if not then its not working.
Ans: Sound recieving perfectly. (too loud actually ;-) )
2. Trying to make a call using a landline phone so as remove the possibility of caller having any network issues and use a SIM from a different network provider on your handset to ascertain if its a network problem.
Ans: Tried from almost a dozen networ/phone cominations. No joy.
3. Is there a small popup with a heading something like 'In call volume' when using the volume rocker while receiving an incoming call ?
Ans : Yes, the usual volume level bar appears.
4. And does it at least show increase or decrease in the bar on the popup of 'In Call volume' graphically when you press corresponding volume rocker keys ?
Ans : Yes, the volume works fine. I can hear my own voice back very clearly, both in the headset and loud speaker .
Nothing works so far.. any other software related issue sthat u can think of..?
So one thing for sure your receiving speaker works fine and so is your volume rocker.
Usually most of the software related issues should be resolved when you clear cache, clear dalvik cache, factory reset, flash stock ROM and kernel on your handset.
I think you have already done all of these, right ?
I think some thing is wrong with your radio i.e. motherboard, you might have to go to the service center.
The problem may also be due to use of faulty Jack headphone, that galaxy R has.
Do check for that...!!

I was in office all this while and all i tried was restoring my CWM backups of all the ROMs I had and then making factory reset, clear cache of it.
Just reached home and flashed the stock 2.3.6 XWLA4 via Odin and made a factory reset, clear cache with nothing on it.. and guess what ?!
IT WORKED...
so far tried from a landline and a mobile, and mic works.. testing still going on..
The only only difference i could find was.. all my backups had root and now since I flashed via Odin, its unrooted and thats the only diff..
Cooleagle/anyone, do you think that could have made the difference..

OH MAN !!!!!
that was exactly the problem....
plugged in my headphone, plugged out and the NEXT CALL.... the problem recurred. as mentioned in the other thread, i plugged in and out the headphone a couple of times (without reboot) and then it started working..
I never knew the headphone jack of SGR had a regular problem like this...
I never used a hands-free for calls and only a couple of days back started listening songs from phone..
But i still wonder how after every CWM restore, followed by a reboot, did not solve the problem before..
Thanks a lot dude...

Thanks for posting that.
In his case it was not working for outgoing as well as incoming calls but in sarun's case he could use the handset for outgoing calls.
So it seems to affect selectively and not the same in every case.
Do you think I should put this in the FAQ's because it seems some handsets have this bug ?

Yea Cool_eagle.
Put in FAQ, but in exception cases or under some other heading, coz it will give wrong impression to users. As the user might take it that this problem occurs on all Galaxy R. (I am not facing this error on my handset)
Also put that Galaxy R shutdown immideatly when it tries to access the network.
Put the heading as some known problems with Galaxy R

Even i faced this problem. Whem I'm listening to music on headphones and a call comes, I remove the headphones and take the call, and sometimes I cant hear anything. Even outgoing doesnt work.
Pluggin in the headphone and removing it solves the issue most of the time. Else a reboot has worked for me everytime.
If it gets too annoying take it to service center, Even i faced the same fears as u but I finally took it (But that was cos of a different issue)
Keep us posted, Gud luck
I don't know why I have a pair of headphones at the top of my screen in the menu bar, but I don't k ow how to remove it. I can't hear people when they call and I can't hear people when I call them. Its almost like its showing like a headset is plugged into the phone but there is no headset plugged in. Where do I find the setting? I'm on Hellfire Rom by the way.

First thing, I'd say reboot your phone. If not, then put some headphones in, then pull them back out again. If that doesn't work, reflash the rom.

The only thing I did not try is the headphones because I don't have headphones. That being said, I think I may send my phone to LG to get fixed, so:
1) Do I need to relock my phone first and how?
2) Since I am rooted, how do I unroot and get the phone back to normal.
Again, right now I am Unlocked, Rooted, and running Hellfire Rom.

Just want 2 get rid of it hubby needs his phone it's life or death
I have a west max mx 110 phone the headphone symbol at the top of the screen and the headphone are not plug in and no one can hear my voice Will.E.Wilson
I just got my new HTC one S from ebay (seller says it was a demonstration device but fully functional). I cannot hear any sound. When I am in a phone call (I can hear the sound in the upper speaker where the sensors are but not on the back) and then start Angry Birds for example sound works. but As soon as I hang up it stops working. Phone Call via Speaker also does NOT work Got a broken device?
Anybody knows a solution? Tried reboot and hard reset of course!
This has seemed to pop up a few times now--no reason that I have heard
I would try to to return it--don't know ebay polices though
what do you think? Software or hardware related?
I have 14 days money back but I dont want to got it for 300 bucks...
Is it unlocked? If its not you can just send it to HTC and get it replaced/repaired for free

It doesn't look like hardware problem, because speaker wouldn't work at all, but if it works in the game, then it could be a software glitch. Have you tried to do factory reset on it? You will loose app, but your personal data, photos, videos and so on, shouldn't be deleted, unless you tell the devide to delete user data. If it won't work, you could try to reflash the device's firmware.
as I heard myself its only FRONT speaker wich works, rear speaker doesnt. Will send it in to HTC tomorrow
Same thing happened to me. I noticed that if you wipe the system and reflash the rom it will work again. A factory reset will not fix the problem. But a system reset will. To do a system reset you must install twrp. If you want twrp your phone has to be jailbroken

Thanks but it didnt work (
Hi!
Let's get straight to the point.
I just got a Skyrocket (Canadian Version) last week on Craigslist and I am having a blast with it-- wonderful phone. There is only one problem, though... my in-call audio would not work. When I put a call on speakers, I can hear the other side, but when I am using the actual call speakers located at the top of the front screen, I cannot hear anything. If I reboot the phone, it will work for about say 4 times... and then it will be borked again. Also, I noticed one time that when the background of the other phone is loud, that is when the problem would arise.
Should I go back to complete stock and see if that fixes it? Or is it a hardware issue?
Do a complete odin wipe back to stock, and use it for a couple days. If that doesnt work i suspect the seller knew of the issue, and sold u a borked phone.
I've experienced the exact issue as well. I upgraded a few weeks ago and on day 3 of having the phone, bam, in mid call the default call audio speaker went out. I was on Sky-ICS at the time. I flashed different radios despite knowing that couldn't have been it, went all the way back to stock and nothing worked.
I concluded that it was a hardware issue, or a software issue that was beyond anything a flash, battery pull, or tweak could fix. For whatever reason, the call audio muted the default speaker, yet rerouted to the loud speaker with no problem. So I took it back to the store, explained it to the sales rep and got a new Skyrocket.

I've seen a lot of people post about others not being able to hear them on normal conversations, but my problem is the complete opposite.
They hear me fine when i use the phone, but when i put the phone on speakerphone, they can not hear me at all. they hear me talking but it is so faint that it is almost inaudible.
This also occurs when i try to use video chat features on the phone.
Is there something wrong with the mic or is it a software issue? Any Thoughts?
What ROM/Kernel are you using specifically?
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
Everything is stock. 2.3.4
Oh, that's strange. When stock everything SHOULD work, doesn't mean it always works though. It could be just a network error, I doubt that though, could also be a physical problem too, but lets not get ahead of ourselves, software wise you can try CM7 or something to see if it works on there, rebooting may work but I'm sure you've already tried that. What I would do is try a few different roms, and if that doesn't work, then it might be a physical problem. Physically the phone might be able to pick up your voice fine close up, but is weak away from your face. Just throwing out some possibilities here.
