Anyone having this issue?
Mic out only works if I have a charger connected to the phone.
If I don't have a charger:
1. I don't have any sound coming out of the microphone jack
2. I can only hear partial sounds meaning I can only hear background music and not the vocals from music.

I have the official Samsung car dock. When I take a call on it via speakerphone the callers complain of severe echo when they talk. Has anyone else had this experience? Is there anything I can do about it other than go back to using a headset for calls?
I have the same issue while just using my phone on auxiliary with my car. It happens when your volume is up too loud, the microphone can remove the echo, but only up to certain levels. Try turning your speaker volume down a bit and it should help, if turning it down just a bit puts it out of your range of hearing, then you might listen to music too loud all day.
The voice of the caller does not come through the car stereo. Once I take a call the sound routs back through the phone's speaker. So it's the phone's speaker that is being picked up by the mic.
I wonder if the sound from the speaker is being channeled to the mic by the plastic of the car dock.
I bought some JVC headphones that are high quality and the sound is really clear after a while i notice when i plug them in my Sensation the sound is terrible it sounds like a pair of 5 dollar headphones with no bass, it was working fine what gives?
Wait... So you were using the headphones in Sensation fine for some time, but then this suddenly happened? Try them in another device to see if it's a problem with headphones. You can also turn on SRS/Equalizer in Music settings.
Did the sound get worse after answering a call and going back to the music app? Does the problem get fixed when you reboot the phone? If so, disconnect the headphone, play music through the speaker and connect the headphone back while the music is playing. It should get fixed. If you have a headset, while listening to music, you can press the main button twice (as to redial a call) and then immediately cancel the call. It should give you back the good sound.
Hi,
My old Nexus 5 (vanilla 5.1.1 not rooted) is malfunctioning.
There is no sound coming from the speaker in the bottom of the phone and the microphone is not picking up any sound when making a normal call and/or recording a video.
The speaker at the top of the phone however, is working. So I hear people in phone calls, but they do not hear me.
Now to the strange part: If I change to the loud speaker while in a call it's the opposite; I can not hear them but they can hear me.
If I connect headphones into the headphone jack I can hear sound both in calls and in video playback.
So to summarize:
Playing video or music (YouTube, video recording, dialer sounds): No sound
Playing video or music (YouTube, video recording, dialer sounds) with headphones: Sound working
Recording video: No sound recorded
Making a phone call: Sound but no microphone
Making a phone call with loudspeaker on: No sound but microphone working
Making a phone call with handsfree connected: Not tested (I have no headphones with mic).
And what's even more strange is that I just replaced the flex cable with the microphone and charging dock and also the entire speaker with new parts from eBay. And guess what... it's still not working!!!
Flex cable I replaced: http://www.ebay.com/itm/281669874921
Speaker I replaced: http://www.ebay.com/itm/252003488330
Followed this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPuCmfhzgbg
What now? I really thought the replacement parts would solve this. :crying:
Any help is highly appreciated!

Bump. Nobody?!
Have you tried booting into safe mode and testing the speakers?

Click to collapse
No, I will try that. So you think this could be an software issue?

Maybe since replacing the parts didnt work
It's not a software issue. It's a loose flex cable issue. Holy hell this is annoying...
Found this video after an hour seaching: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Af5DvIZwSss
I pressed on the back of the phone where the flex cable connects and voilá; speaker and microphone working again.
Replacing the flex cable didn't solve the issue, very strange. I will now open up the phone again, clean the port on the motherboard with electrical cleaner and see if that solves the problem. If not then I will place something to press down on the connector, just as he did in the video.
It's most likely that the pins on the socket that the flex cable connects to are broken. Because they're so small, it's extremely hard to detect. The first few pins on the top left of the socket carry data for the mic and speaker. Pushing down reconnects the broken pins. Be careful that you don't push too hard, because that could bend them out of alignment permanently, and potentially break other pins.
My Samsung galaxy note 3 shows earphones plugged in when I am in a call even when it is not and there is no problem in the jack because other music players plays music from external speakers and also during calls the voice comes from speakers but only it shows that earphones are plugged in when I use the buttons reduce noise or increase volume. I recently used bold beast recorder and I think it is the main cause of the problem because it is happening only in the calling app and because of this proximity sensor is not working as the phone thinks that earphones are connected. Please help me. It cures after a restart but happens again after sometimes. I have uninstalled bold beast still no hope.
Factory restore might help
Very bizarre problem developed:
The lead vocal track when playing any audio is barely audible through headphones. The instrumentals sound fine, but then when the lead audio enters, it almost sounds as if it is eminating from a distant echo chamber. Background vocals sound louder. Doesn't seem to matter what the source or app is. I can listen to a podcast and the lecturer/speaker is also inaudible. The problem doesn't exist with BT streaming or when playing through the speaker. The headphones work fine in other hardware.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
is your plug plugged in correctly? maybe some dust got in your 3.5mm jack
