Android gets audio input from phone mic instead of earphones mic? - General Questions and Answers

I've bought a new pair of earphones to use with my Honor 9, however when I try to call someone or talk in a voice chat, the phone uses the audio input from the phone microphone instead of the earphones (I know this because tapping the earphones mic was not picked up at all by the phone). I've tried this with 2 pairs of earphones, and I'm fairly sure the mic worked when I first got it. so I'm almost certain this is a problem with my phone and not the earphones. Anyone have any solutions?
Thanks in advance

[REQ] use internal mic when headset plugged in.

Is there anything available that will force my HD2 to use the internal mic while a headset is plugged into the 3.5mm socket?
I often use my HD2 to listen to music in my car using a 3.5mm jack to jack cable into the aux in port just near my handbrake which works a charm.
When I get a call the music is interrupted and if I answer it I can hear the caller through my car speakers however they can't hear me as the phone is in headset mode and is expecting a mic to be plugged in.
I don't think it's a simple case of re-routing which mic is used as while that may technically work the caller would be able to hear themselves delayed through my cars sound system. I need the phone to send the mic into speaker mode so it has a detection system that stops the caller hearing themselves but send the output through the headset socket.
I hope that makes sense?
seems strange that it does not working .. i use this way to listen music & gps instructions and it is working ok, with the phone's microphone.. try i different 3.5mm jack (stereo) .. or you have a cooked rom ?
I just tried a different cable and it's working! strange for some reason the HD2 must have thought my cable was headset?
Thanks!
yeah it dosnt work cuz if u look @ the original headset it has 3 lines which meant 2 for the stereo ear pice and 1 for the mic, i have the same prob i dnt like the origenal headset so i use mine which means i have to unplug it every time i get a call, but i think the only way to use good headset with mic is to buy the iphone headset, its the same priciple with a better sound quality of the headset
If your jack has only 3 contacts, the phone can sense there's no 4th one, so there's no mic, and uses the internal mic. If your cable has 4 contacts, it will try to use external mic even if there's actually none.
oooo yeah u r right, lol, jst tried it it work
thnx man
wow, i was just asking myself the same question. i have a pair of sennheiser earphones(without mic), when i take an incoming call the other side cannot hear me most of times. but, sometimes the internal microphone is activated and i can speak using my earphones. this seems a quite random problem, i don't understand. even with skype, sometime i can use earphones, some other time i'm forced to unplug using the loudspeaker...boh...
i want my phone mic since my built in carstero mic is to far away
On a similar note, is it possible to have the internal speaker announce GPS instructions while I'm playing music via Bluetooth?

Raphael use Handset Microphone with Headset plugged in

Hi there,
I've got a simple problem to solve: When in my car, I have my Raphael plugged to the car stereo with a cheap ExtUSB Adapter. The phone recognizes the adapter as a Headset, but I don't have a microphone attached.
When someone calls, I want to use the headset Audio but with the handset microphone.
Is there any easy solution for this? Putting the phone to speaker mode works sometimes, but the phones speaker isn't loud enough for most situations.
thx, h3po
push...
another situation, same problem:
I just bought a cradle for my Raphael which happens to have a built in microphone and a line-out jack, which I do not plan to use. But when I plugin my handset, it goes to headset mode and I cannot hear the ringtone when the phone rings.
I can't believe there's no way to choose the speaker output =/

[Q] Headphones when plugged in mute my voice in calls?

At work I listen to music on my nexus 5 with my headphones. When someone calls and I answer I can hear them through my headphones no problem, but they can't hear me.. Its almost as if connecting my headphones to the N5 mutes my mic.
Is there a setting I'm missing here? I thought the N5 may be thinking my headphones are a headset and disabling the mic but my other nexus phones had no problem with this.. I could recieve a call with my headphones and the phone mic would pick up my voice and as soon as the call is finished my music would begin playing again.. My N5 isn't doing this.
Any advice guys?
Are they cheap headphones? Like ebay special or something? Probably has the wrong connector and your phone thinks they have a mic.

is that headphone fully compatible with N5?
i own multiple headphones with mic and few wont work properly for calling(with RAZR).
For the music to play again, there may be settings in the app. Some players wont auto-resume!

[Q] Bluetooth Microphone (No Earpiece) For Android

Hi all,
Will keep it simple here, looking for a mini bluetooth microphone that will clip to my shirt and link to my phone (OnePlus One). I have a pair of earphones that don't have a mic (they're Sennheiser IE800's so I don't plan on changing them), and I also own a Sony SmartWatch 2. I can answer calls on the smartwatch but have to take the phone out of my pocket anyway so that I can talk to the person calling.
So I was wondering, if I have my earphones plugged in and I answer a call on my smartwatch, is there such a thing as a mini bluetooth mic only that can replace the phone microphone during a call?
Any help or other solutions for this problem would be great.
Thanks,
Michael

Auxiliary speaker issue

I just transitioned from stock Kit Kat to Marshmallow, and so far, haven't noticed many problems. However, I have an issue that I can't figure out. When I plug my auxiliary headphones into my phone to listen to my music, I can hear my music and any calls or notifications can be heard through the headphones. However, when I plug an auxiliary speakers into my phone to listen to my music, I can't hear the call through the speakers unless I place the phone into speakerphone mode. This, of course, causes an echo for the person on the other end of the line. Any idea what's going on and how to fix it? Thanks in advance for any and all help.
