Microphone stopped working. - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
My microphone stopped working somewhere in the last days. I know it worked this weekend. I have not installed something weird, or updated my rom. I'm using cm12.1, tried updating to see if that helped but it didn't.
The only reason I could think of is that I was in a Hangouts call, and I had my microphone muted. And during this my phone died because of no more battery. And something happened in that shutdown process.
I would appreciate all help I could get!
EDIT: Solved! After a factory reset the microphone works again normally.
Thanks,
Yrlish

Do a factory reset or clean flash ROM - it should resolve the issue if it is a software issue.

Yes, of course! I'll try this later.

After a factory reset the microphone works normally again. Something must have happened when it shut down with the microphone muted.

Which steps did you do in order to install PA? Please tell us the exact way you did it, maybe we can figure something out. Also, providing a logcat might help too...

A weird question but Have you unlocked your bootloader?
I have got a similar problem. I got my OPO, unlocked it, flashed twrp, then PA and GApps and shortly after franco, AK and Sensei kernel. I can hear people calling me, but they can't hear me. When trying to record the voice, the first 5 seconds are just a loud beep and then muffled noise.

[Q] Lollipop- Bluetooth not working

Just flashed lollipop and everything works perfect except for Bluetooth. Phone simply says there are no other Bluetooth devices in range, and those devices can't see the nexus. I tried rebooting, factory reset, re-flashing stock lollipop using flash-all batch and even Wug toolkit just to cover all my options but still no work around. Anyone else experience this problem or can think of a way to fix it? Anything would help.

Hi, one of my friend faced similar issue and wiping the cache from recovery helped solve the issue.
Try wiping cache and reboot.

So I solved the issue. Re-flashed 5.0 to the device, rebooted, and wiped cache. It still didn't pick up bluetooth as of last night but it worked this morning. Also, for any android wear users (or at least moto 360) the phone wouldn't pick up the watch until I did factory reset on the watch and opened android wear on the phone itself in order to accept terms and conditions.
@TheRoice
thanks, has worked for me :good:

Microphone not working but Speaker Mode does

Everything is fine until i flashed my phone with new xtroslite 3.2 so i thought maybe going back to stock will fix my problem unfortunetely my mic issue still exist. Tried cleaning the mic hole gently doesnt help. Went to safe mode to check if its a software/app issue doesnt help, Should flashing a different carrier firmware help? Can i downgrading to 5.0.2 or 5.1.1 can resolve my problem. Or factory reset maybe? Anyone having the same issue, hope someone can advice me. Thanks in advance.
Same problem over here, have you fixed it?

Sound issue in Oreo Beta 3

Hi,
I've got my phone 2 days ago and the first thing I did was to update to Oreo Beta 3 from the official site. I find that the sound stops working every once in a while, unless I reboot the phone. Anybody else face this issue too?

I never upgrade the phone to another OS before I test it out completely because if you update, then you never know if anything was broken before the upgrade. Back to your question, I am on beta 3 and sound is fine, but it depends which sound you are referring too.

I refer to the whole system sound, everything including ringtone volume and media and alarm. Nothing works when I try to play a song or a video. But when I reboot it, it's working!

Did you sideload any apps, such as Google camera?

Nope. All I did was sideload the Beta 3 zip , and install every other app from Play Store.

I suspect its an app.
Try running with no apps then install one at a time.

Hello, I also had this problem until my first factory reset. I haven't had this issue since. It seems things can get messy when you upgrade to Oreo without a full wipe. Try that if all else fails. Good luck!

Thanks for the advice. But I uninstalled GCMod5 (Google Camera port) the other day and I haven't found the issue ever since. Though I didn't flash it through the recovery, looks like it was affecting my phone somehow, and now it's gone! As of now, the problem is solved.

Rotation and many other thing are not working on android 10

Hi folks,
I've just updated my one plus 6 to android 10 and I already have many problems. The rotation and the automatic brightness are not working anymore. Plus, when you try to put your phone near your ear to listen to an audio message on WhatsApp is not working as well. Am I the only one with these problems?
Thanks
Same here.
Is this a bug or did I something wrong?
mine worked perfectly fine. but i find some issues where when i type on my keyboard it's little bit laggy. that's bother me a lot. so i had to soft reboot it
I get the same issues.. I'd fixed with factory reset, now everything works fine
I wasn't getting notifications of missed calls so factory reset. Then I couldn't access my contacts with the message saying something like, you haven't given all permissions. I downloaded another call app and gave all permissions. It worked fine, so I deleted it and gave all permissions to the OnePlus phone app (including location which I'm sure I never had to give previous). It now works...

Oh my... I don't want to do a factory reset ?
I fixed it by uninstalling Magisk via TWRP (there's now an easy guide to install it in Android 10), rebooting to system, check if the sensors are working again, and then reinstalling Magisk through TWRP again. If this happens again just re-do the procedure, an update will probably fix this.
my sensors went bad when first installing the open beta 30, but with a cache wipe in the recovery, everything should be back to normal again. Well, in my case it was so you should give it a shot as well

I usally don't post comments on this forum but i would like to thank you. I had the same sensor issues since Android 10 and it really grinded my gears..
Just wiped cache from recovery and voila, the auto rotate works like a charm.
Thank you very much my friend and have a great day! :good:
