I will ask here the same as on Google forum ...
Some of users have problems with speaker. If I listen to music, it is ok for me (I don't listen it very often). So it looks, that from hardware aspect speaker works fine.
But when I talking (have a call/conversation), I noticed that I sometimes I can't hear people on the other side. Be more specifically - for a second two, the loudness drops a lot and then come back.
What is that? Software problem? Can installing a new kernel (when it comes) helps?
Regards
Hello, basically my loudspeaker is broken so i bought new one, but it takes about 3-4 week to deliver. For that time i managed to change audio output for media to earspeaker but i would like to change also alerts(notification and ringtones) to play from earspeaker. I am using app called SoundAbout and there you can set alerts only for headsets and suff like that. I wonder if there is another way to completly swap speakers or something so i can hear when sbd is calling me.
I am using Xiaomi redmi note 4g, android 5.1.1. Thanks for every suggestion
Hi
I have a bluetooth speaker wich I can not make it the sound arrive. My Mi4 is running LineageOs (7.1.2), it connects successfully to the speaker, but the sound does not play...
The icon of the bluetooth is different from the "normal" one and when I see the notifications space, appears the player (in this case Spotify) as it was casting to the player, but again, no sound. When I disconnect the bluetooth, the speaker makes a sound (blink), telling that it's disconnected.
I have read about this problem elsewere, so I think it's not just me who have it.
Any ideas or help would be very appreciated.
Kind regards.
Hi.
After some time, I found out that this is a common problem in custom roms based on aosp android. It's widelly commented in the lineage forums. No solution right now.
Just for all you to know.
Regards.
Hi,
In a certain application only certain sounds are played at much lower volume (about 30-40% of a level that should be correct) by plugged in earphones (newly bought SoundMAGIC E10C). Those sounds (voices) are most likely played by SoundPool (but not sure if all SoundPool sounds are bad), while the ones in that application that are ok are likely played by MediaPlayer. It happens in those instances in 100% of cases, changing volume does not fix this, fiddling with a connector does not fix this. I haven't noticed anything similar in any other app with these earphones.
I wanted to report it as a bug to the author, but when trying another pair of earphones (older Akg shipped with a Samsung phone) this surprisingly does not reproduce at all. Neither on speakers or another (bluetooth) headphones.
What can be the problem? My headphones? Some setting on my phone? Android bug? The application's bug?
Phone is Samsung Note 8 (Android 9 / One Ui)
I'll provide more info if needed
Thank you!
If you put a search string "problem mic headphones" in XDA forums, you'll get tens if not hundreds of threads which start at least in 2015 and consider Xiaomi as well as Samsung, OnePlus, sometimes Moto phones - both on vendor and custom OS. Most of the threads are created in model specific subforums and most of them are left unanswered, even though the issues repeat from time to time, from one manufacturer to another. If I catch it correctly, Xiaomi (Redmi, Mi) is the champion in this field. But problems persist in other phones too.
One of the biggest issues often reported is that one day (or from the very beginning) when you put headset jack in, your interlocutor hears you badly. Your voice is too weak or ambient noise is too loud in respect to your speech. In many cases a proposed solution is 1) to install Mic Fix module for Magisk (on rooted phones). But it does not always work. 2) To change the headset and 3) to clean the physical jack hole. In many reported cases this does not help neither. So, there is a software switch which does not work.
I entered the club and having this precise issue with my Redmi Note 10 Pro running first on vendor Miui then on CrDroid 8. I changed three different wired headsets, including the one by Xiaomi, with no result. Installed Mic Fix module for Magisk (both latest updates), with no effect.
Manipulating the phone during the call or during a test record (bringing it closer and further to the mouth, putting it into my pocket with headset attached, etc.), I acknowledged that the problem is that the phone takes inbound audio signal from the phone built-in microphone and not from the headset. Both in mobile calls and in various messengers. Meanwhile listening to my interlocutors, as well as music alone is just fine.
Trying to solve the issue I found several great apps and Magisk modules, such as Dolby Atmos and Viper4Android FX equalizers which enhance your listening experience. But I found no clearly designated app or module which lets take control of the microphone when headset is attached. Literally no dedicated app or feature in all-rounder apps lets tweak the mic use. Meanwhile the issue persists during at least 7 years.
Maybe the solution is so evident, and the app/module is so easily and widely used that it's a shame to discuss such a noob topic? Please break the silence and tell which tools you use for tuning or tweaking your mic in the headset.
And if you already faced the same or a similar problem and found the same (zero) software solution for Android, what is the rational reason why such an app or module was not yet made by an expert and creative dev?
By now a solution that I found is to use a bluetooth headset. In this case the mic works well during calls.
But I like using wired headsets (and sound quality of mine wired is better than those on bluetooth). So I am still in search for an app or module to tweak or fix the mic redirection issue.
If someone can help, please be kind to give a hint.
Same here my man, and although my issue is slightly different, it's looking for the same solution, an app to tweak the mic
I'm using a oneplus 3 and my favorite ROM is Resurrection Remix (A10), but, if you use CTIA headsets (mine are earbuds because i don't like in-ear), sometimes the headset gets detected as OMTP and the mic produces a really loud hight pitch noise
So far i haven't found any solution, besides reconnecting the headset several, several times until it gets it right
