External microphone - MTCD Android Head Units Q&A

Hey all, I have a PX5 and with everyone else, the woeful microphone that goes with it.
I bought an external microphone in the hope it was better, but the PX5 does not seem to pick up the sound as if it's not connected. Is there a way to set microphone input? Say as to only use the external one and not the internal one or anything?
I'm rooted etc and have knowledge re adb
Any help would be appreciated

Speaker phone problem

hello.
i have a problem with my universal:
i can't get my speaker phone to work (the phone doesn't ring, and no sound can be heard (media player or any program)
the speaker located in the lcd works, so i can hear when i talk with someone
i temporarly changed both speakers with 2 that work, and there is the same problem.
i changed the rom, but no change
anyone have any ideeas about what the problem is ? (and perhaps a solution ?)
thank you.
maybe an internal bus break if you tested the connections with known working speakers

I occasionally get this problem after I've used the headphone socket - it's as though the socket gets stuck and thinks that there's still a jack in there, and so mutes the external speakers. I find that pushing the kacj in again, giving it a wiggle, and pulling it out normally does the trick.
Cheers,
Steve.

i've just tried this with some headphones (i hear normally through them), but wiggling and pulling it doesnt do the trick
a broken bus? there's no way to fix it without a lot of expertise, knowledge and specialized equipment. Sorry...
the experience part is the one thing that i need
so.... the broken bus thing.... is a hardware problem that an authorised service can fix (for a lot of money, of course), but is fixable, right ?
thanks

i do the same thing try a few times till you succeed try to pull the jack as though it is stuck
i've used a multimeter and found that the microswitch works fine, so unfortunatly that isn't the problem
Same fixed problem
I had this same problem, is the 3.5 mm jack, I fixed it by opening the uni.
Saludos
thanks. solve the problem.

Speaker doesn't work

My vox it's three months old, from one week I started to notice a very disturbing behavior. People are able to hear me but I can''t hear them. It seems like the internal speaker is flawed. If I use the miniUSB head phones it works fine and If I turn on the conference speaker it works too. Otherwise it just doesn''t work anymore. I have soldered directly speaker's wires on the board but the problem it's the same. What can I do?
Please, nobody can help me? I have tried also to add reg key wm6SoundFixRegistryImport but the problem it's the same. I'm sure that other people have this problem.
this seems like a hardware problem which you can get serviced by sending your phone to htc.
No, I can't because I haven't warranty. I'm sure that isn't a hardware problem because I can hear a little rustle.
i m facing exactly same problem as well. spearkerphone works fine but earphone do not worki.. if u find any solution then let me know too...
THe problem it's the speaker, I tried another from a motorala and it work! Where Can I find htc parts?
can u guide me how to open the htc phone to reach earphone speaker u mentioned?

[Q] G2x audio through PC or Ext. Speakers

Sorry to chime in a newb sort of question such as this, but I really need help with getting the g2x to ring through external speakers, even through my PC speakers would work.
I bought an mp3 speaker system last night with aux. line in and tried to hook the phone into the speakers that route - I could hear all audio - EXCEPT the one thing I needed: The ringtone/ringer when the phone rings.
Is there some way to set up a connection (w/o bluetooth) to PC, or through ANY method with external speakers without spending $200+ ?
Thanks.
R
Could someone PLEASE help me with this - or is it:
A.) too stupid a question, or
B.) too complex for anyone here to answer?
My guess would be A., but still, people come here for help... Is there no one who will take a second to answer this?
Thanks to anyone who has the time to help.
I am not sure if the audio has to come from the phones speak when it rings or if it can come out of ext speakers. I am sure someone can answer it and i don't think of this as dumb most likely a setting that you haven't found or a program you need from the market.
Ive been streaming music at work with various android devices for 2 years. Phone is hooked up to 2 pc speakers and a sub. The ringer never came out of the speakers. Must be a limitation of android.

Might be intentional. The first time I got a phone call while I was listening to streaming music on my three-phones-ago Windows Mobile phone, the ring came through the headphones and nearly blew out my eardrums!

non-working mic on MTCD PX3 2gb with android 7.1.2 - got full refund on aliexpress

aliexpress case management decided: full refund without return...
I had opened a dispute because of the mic problem. and also the unit was advertised as having a dvd player and of course does not come with one.
So now I need to fix my free head unit.
If I YELL into the mic, I can be heard with some static. However, Google voice commands will not work because of the horrible sounding voice input.
I installed an external mic, and no help.
In between insisting it was ok to close the dispute (which I guess was a scam attempt), the seller suggested that there was an external mic module that might help? or that the bluetooth chip may not be functioning correctly.
does the soldering external mic onto internal mic "fix" address this specific problem? if so, will google voice command then work?
I've been searching for answers for several days now and I'm not clear on it. I hope someone out there who has done this can shed some light?
Also... guys if the unit does not work, that dispute button apparently isn't just for looks.

i did not, but it looks exactly like that except for not having the iR sensor and the buttons being labeled differently.

From what I've read, they're all built and designed so horribly that most have microphone issues of some sort. They're all the same. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. All I'm saying is that if you order one and it isn't working right, use the dispute button. Maybe some day they'll actually make decent units and advertise them correctly
Is it. a microphone. issue or just. something in. the software ? it. seams everyone has this. problem mincluding me.. microphonen will. not. work anywere else besides bluetooth app (dialer app)
I took my external mic while in a BT call cupped it in my hands and put my hands to my mouth and talked into it so the headunit mic couldnt pick up my voice, the person couldnt hear me at all. Tried louder & louder & they couldnt hear me, I literally need to almost yell with my face 5 inches from the screen for them to hear me.
This seems to be a common issue. Even I have this issue. Fortunately the mic works beautifully during Bluetooth calls. Please let us know of you find a fix for this.
Cheers,
Rahul U S

I was searching for DAC enabled shotgun microphone but couldnt found any maybe its not even exist any advise?
Thanks for any help or tip!
