Hi, I have the same issue (I think) when you switch to loudspeaker can people hear you just fine? I have been looking into trying to make the phone microphone act as it does in loudspeaker all the time. I have created a new post here:

I'm with the same issue. People can only hear me when phone is in speaker state. The speaker however doesn't work so then I can't hear them. When not in speaker state I can hear the other party but they can't hear me. I figure that the microphone and speaker it located in the lower part of the phone, behind the little cover so maybe that whole section "went out".
Being able to re-route the microphone used in speaker mode to be used all the time would somehow solve the issue so that would be great.

You have a broken microphone. When you use the headphones or loudspeaker phone uses a second microphone.

[Q] Are there any sound quality issues beside speaker?

Hello,
the question is in the title : do you have sound quality issues throught hearphones like noise , artefacts...? It seems I have some random buzzing noises like a stuttering but I can't find where it could come from.

Nope, my headphone clarity is great and the speakers are about 50x better than nexus 4

None on my end either and personally I don't think the speakers are THAT bad.

I dont know what's causing this, it's the problem with random defects...

I managed to reproduce the issue : when I make a bug report from develloper option while listening to music.Bluetooth seems unaffected.I made a video of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XZSef6fuKU
any ideas?
thanks

The speaker is a lot quieter and not as clear as my S2, but it does the job.. Only use it so often.
But, I don't know about you guys.. what's quite annoying is that in apps that force the screen counter clockwise when viewing horizontally my hand covers the speaker and I have to adjust my holding position to hear sound. It seems strange that they didn't place the speaker and mic the opposite way round.. (maybe for calls.. I don't know..)
Also annoyingly, there's such a simple solution, if only somehow all apps could be forced the opposite way then the speakers on the top left and is never covered maybe it could be incorporated into a custom rom?

Very bad microphone during video recording

Hello
I went to Sam Smith's concert in Lille (France) tuesday, tried to record a short extract of his performance but the sound is horrible. My girlfriend has an iPhone 5S and the sound quality is perfect.
Do you experience a ****ty sound quality in noisy sound conditions too ?
How to fix that ?

Not sure how you're supposed to enjoy a concert being a static tripod.

Thanks daddy but you dont solve the problem of thé sound recording on Honor 6 in loud environement being terrible

I don't play for that team sorry...

@theoneofgod Compare the two videos I posted and tell me if it's normal that Honor 6 has so bad sound ? The problem is that they didn't optimize their Kirin Chips and it's the result...

It's nothing to do with the chipset but their microphone calibrations/software.

Back in the days when I had a Galaxy S4, with Cyanogen i had the same issue but with stock rom no problem
I think they didn't optimize the "drivers" for the phone, but it's lame
A 300€ device should not have this kind of issue

You need to send this directly to Honor themselves via Facebook or Twitter or whatever they use. If they hear you they might fix it but don't get your hopes up.

Same here.I went on a psy party and the sound was crap..Does the honor 6 + have the same microphone?I think it's hardware prob:crying:

It certainly has Contacted Honor, but no answer yet
It's really a game changer for me since I go to many festivals and concerts
Moreover I can't record my self playing music with it... With my GALAXY S4 didn't have this issue, the sound was clear, with bass too

It's the calibration of the microphone, the software.

Would it be possible to edit : /system/etc/audio/codec/ascend_MOGOLIA_ULG_ce.xml ?

I'm not the person to ask this. It's just that Huawei haven't tested the microphone under those circumstances and many other phones and cameras have the same problem.

I edit sample rate at etc/media profiles from 48000KHZ to 44100 as they say and the prob still exist.Even moto e records perfect sound...I'm already thinking changing to meizu mx4 and i really don't want to change it..

Does the microphone issue has a fix?
Hi,
I am looking to buy this phone and already got some good feedback on the battery side. The camera I have seen some nice or good enough photos, now the matter of sound...
This issue with the microphone is quite worrying. I do not record a lot of video, but if I wanted to I want to make sure I get some nice clear audio in the recorded video. Does anyone know if this issue has a fix? I haven't seen this posted anywhere, so maybe someone has done some research better than me and found a workaround. Maybe the latest OTA fixed the issue or some of the custom roms don't have the issue?

Do we have a solution for this?Did Huawei answered?

Hi!
Have another problem: when I call to someone or pick up the phone, people with whom I spoke complained of poor audibility. But in the dictophone mode microphone level still stay absolutely normal. Looks like as program error.
Reflash & customize my phone regular, may be something wrong ((
Now I make 3-th button restore to 5.9.1 without any customization, recieve auto update to 5.9.16, but no luck.
Any idea, please?

The microphone quality on the Honour 6 Plus is also very poor when using Bluetooth handsfree.
Have tried this with many different handsfree car kits and car stereos.
It would appear the the noise reduction algorithm is reducing the mic gain with the result that the mic audio level is about 15% of what it should be. This makes it extremely difficult for callers to hear what is being said.
Phone has been replaced.
Have tried 4.4 and 5.1 - no difference
For such a fantastic phone this is a massive oversight. Looking at the Mate 8 (when it appears), but worried may have same issue
Have emailed Hauwei support about issue, but there is no resolution

Serious audio issues, can anyone else test?

Hello, it seems im experiencing the exact same issue as here: http://en.miui.com/thread-81318-1-1.html
I tried latest MIUI / CM12.1, can anyone else confirm it? Is this a software issue? Any fixes possible? It's extremely annoying..
The problem with sound when it's played with headphones on LOW VOLUME. (especially with in-ear plugs with good noise cancelling like Xiaomi Piston, it's less noticable on other types of headphones)
It is VERY noticable in quiet music or when listening to speech without background music like podcasts or audiobooks, or when the music fades out. I would describe it as hissing noise with a lot of distortion. (just listen to some audiobook to test)
With loud music it's less noticable because music overlaps the distortion.
The problem is the same with the speaker but it's much less noticable. (you have to put speaker close to ear to hear it)
Can anyone test it on your phone? :good:

Can anyone check it on their phone please? Maybe it's just mine and i will need to replace it..

I can confirm it, there's a little bzzz but i can barely notice that, so it's not a big problem for me because i always use vibration mode and also i usually don't listen music with the phone...

Guys you can confirm the issue here to bring this to the devs attention: http://en.miui.com/thread-201506-1-1.html

MIUI, CM12.1 = audio is as bad as explained in first post
CM13 = Crystal clear audio

Question [URGENT] Microphone issue on P7Pro

Hi, I owned my P7Pro since few weeks and, few days ago, I began to suffer of mic issue, people couldn't hear like my voice is sub cut, or as I'm speaking underwater...
I don't know if it's a software or a hardware problem. Is there people who's suffering of this issue that can help me ?

Whenever anyone complains that they can't hear you, first confirm that it's you and not them.
Try using Google's Recorder app and playback what you sound like, or record a video and listen to the audio back.

The problem is P7Pro got 2 mics, I'm hearing me when I record a video, but, I have the problem when I'm using g-recorder app

Anyone ? :/

you're rooted or not?

No, my phone is full stock, I use the record app to test, looks like my bottom mic is working, but not top one ... and it's not easy to clean cuz the hole is tiny af

If you've gone into safe mode and did a factory reset and the issue persists it's time to call Google and RMA the device.
