Hi,
after reassembly my N5 for LCD repair the microphone is no more working or better, it only works during hands free calls.
Only using a voice recording app I was able to record a very low volume talk by tweaking microphone gains.
Do I need to replace the USB board where the microphone is located? Or it is a SW issue? I have installed Android Lollipop 5.0.1.
Thanks for help!
Mines doing something similar. Mike won't work on headphone, but will on non speakerphone but not on speakerphone. Driving me nuts. Not repaired anything
Same problem here, the microfone of my Nexus 5 only works on hands free call and I not repaired anything.
Mic Issue With Speakerphone Calls
I purchased a Verizon Galaxy S6 last week and have been enjoying it so far. Today I tried out the speakerphone several times and every time the person on the other end could not hear me. Is this a software or hardware issue? Is it defect or user error? What can I do to fix this? Any help in resolving this matter would greatly be appreciated. Thank you for your help.
-EDIT-
To clarify the microphone does work fine for normal calls. Does the Galaxy S6 use the same mic for both operations? Also, I have tested with and without case on. It seems like a secondary mic or software issue. Is there a secondary mic for the S6? If not then what software or settings could be effecting the speakerphone mic functions?
The Galaxy S6 I believe is like the Note 4 in regards to microphones. When you turn speakerphone on the mic at the top of the phone near the IR blaster is enabled, when just using the phone the mic on the bottom of the phone is enabled. My Note 4 had an issue, on speakerphone mode the people I tried calling could hardly understand me and it kept breaking up my voice to them. I ended up having to send it in for a warranty claim.
There are a couple holes at the top of the S6 on either side of the IR blaster. I haven't been able to dig up any reliable specs. I was hoping for a software fix, but understand hardware might be a likely culprit. Do you think there is any reason I should not take it back other than the cost of time to me waiting in the store and reloading accounts onto the phone?
Exchanged it this morning. Thank you for your help. Problem is fixed with new unit.
S6 MIC not work - all possible answers listed
Hello everyone.
I'm writing this message again, I'll try to be more clear.
I bought Galaxy s7 edge new lately, and yesterday, for the first time, I started to photograph video on the camera of the device.
Okay, I'm done recording a video, And I went to the gallery on the device, To watch what i photographed.
Then I saw that there is a problem, in the video i photographed.
The problem is: Noise in video.
I don't know how to set the noise, Maybe noise static? Maybe noise popping?
Or, actually, I know, Pretty sure this is the clacking noise!!
Because I noticed, When I move my fingers, while recording, then hear these noise :/
I think that microphone is very sensitive to Noise clicks...
By the way, These noise also hear every recording differently, Not only photography video.
Also here talking about the problem (But me it's not just at the beginning of the video) : https://us.community.samsung.com/t5...s-have-strange-static-noises-at-the/td-p/1993
Is anyone here having this problem? I would be happy If you Write a comment Please, I need your help :good:

I'm new to the S7 but had an S4 a few years back and had a very similar issues. Even back then the camera was fantastic and took really clear HD video, but it would feature the same type of popping or crackling noise which could be heard during the first few seconds of video. What I used to do was make a vid recording of 1-2 secs and stop it, then start a new one, the 2nd video clip didn't have the crackling issue.
I must try more videos on my S7, as one of them did have some muffled pop noise at the start but I thought it was just me handling the phone.

Well after about 3 days of use it appears I have a bad mic. The other person only hears me on speaker or in a headset. What happened after the Nexus 5 where these phones started becoming garbage?
Im reading this is a common problem with the phone.
Anyone else run into this? Anyone have a fix? Blowing air in didn't work and neither did playing with the headphone adapter.
Just hit mic issues on my Pixel 2 as well. Mic works in video recordings but not in audio recordings or for google assistant. Apparently Verizon were told that there is a software fix coming (http://www.valuewalk.com/2017/11/problems-google-pixel-2-mic-solved/) but I can't find anything official. I did get it working again by blowing into it but that only lasted a few days. Now it's not working again and blowing ain't doing squat.
Does anyone else have issue with noise crackling sound when recording a video? I have determined that it is not just my phone, but my wife's phone does this as well. Also, I have read online(linked below) that others have had this issue since the Note 5 was upgraded to Nougat 7.0. I have recorded with some other camera apps(Open Camera, Cinema FV-5, ) and have had mixed results, but have found some that do not have this crackling. It seems to happen when there is a lot of bass, like at a concert. With there being a difference in apps, could it be the post processing/encoding of the video audio that is causing this?
So, I am wondering if there will be a bug fix or another update soon to the Note 5, but I am not holding my breath. I also do not want to root and custom ROM this time due to actually liking Samsung Pay
