LineageOS 17.1 microphone does not work in calls through phone dialer - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I am fairly new to this so please tell me when I miss some information and I will try to deliver as fast as possible.
I downloaded and installed this inofficial Lineageos 17.1 by ripee and joshuadoes (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...rofltexx-lineageos-17-1.4063781/post-84238527). It all worked and I would be VERY happy. Unfortunately though, the dialer app, even though it has access to the microphone, does not even request using it (says it has never used it). In calls, my voice is not transmitted. I still hear the voice of the other person though.
Can anyone help me? Is there a way to install another dialer app as the primary app? I tried TrueCaller with no luck. I tried rebooting, and re-installing the custom rom and testing it without anything else installed. It does not work. Calling through WhatsApp and Signal, for example, works. Also the mic is working for videos etc.
Hope you can help me out, and thanks in advance for any ideas. I really like the LineageOS 17.1 experience but not being able to do voice calls is a dealbreaker for me

I have a similar issue. however I can't hear audio during calls as well as the app not accessing the microphone. I have a Samsung A11 and I am using the a GSI LineageOS build from Andy Yan. I have tried with LineageOS 17 and 18.

Mic not working for voice calls (works for google voice search and speakerphone) Mi4i

Hi all,
I'm having a problem with my mi4i when I have voice calls the microphone doesn't register any sound. It works fine on speakerphone and on doing recordings which leads me to believe this is software and not hardware.
I've tried removing the google voice detection stuff by inhibiting it, as i saw elsewhere this was a problem. I couldn't find any options about noise cancellation which may be malfunctioning.
I'm currently using the most up to date MIUI rom (MIUI 7.0.3.0, android version 5.0.2 LRX22G, kernel 3.10.49) but was previously using the ressurection remix. Both times I had the same problem; I was hoping that with the update to the latest MIUI it would fix this problem, but alas it hasn't.
If anyone has any ideas of how to fix this it would be appreciated.
Also, thanks to all the people out there working on ROMs and fixes!
Thanks

Low microphone volume / not working

Hi, I've got some kind of problem with my Mi4c microphone. During calls no one can hear me if I don't use the loudspeaker option, and when I try to record something it's really quiet. I've tried stock ROM, cyanogenmod 12.1 and 13.1. Does anyone know what may be causing it? And what's the fix? Thanks in advance.
same problem
I have same problem to, i've try to change microphone with other, but it still same..
Please help thus isue...
Same problem with me. My partner couldn't hear my voice when we made video call with facebook, hangout, duo etc. But using line working normally
Same problem here. It started after updating CM 13.1 TS to version 20161007.
It looks like other phones are having the same problem, so I guess it's not an mi4c specific issue... As for Skype, 7.00.0.655 works. See https://community.skype.com/t5/Android/Microphone-not-working-android/td-p/4417354/page/4
Extremely low microphone volume when doing Skype Echo call test on stock MIUI8, but works normally when calling somebody. Weird.

Hammerhead microphone stopped working on LineagOS & OpenGapps aroma (with Google Ass)

Hammerhead microphone stopped working on LineagOS & OpenGapps aroma (with Google Ass)
Hopefully someone can help me out, I succesfully installed LineageOS with OpenGapps aroma on it with the Google assistant enabled.
I changed the dialer and contacts originally on LineageOS for the Google dialer and Google contacts and in first instance everything was working fine as well as with the Google Assistant.
Unfortunately recently Google assistant didn't recognize my voice anymore and people on the other end of the phone couldn't hear me.
I have reinstalled everything and went back to Lineage dialer and Lineage contacts but nothing helps. When I make a microphone recording I hear cracking noises.
Does it sound familiar to someone? Is it hardware or software problem? My Hammerhead has never let me down before. I'm on 20170228 Nightly and had the one before also installed, I'm not exactly aware of when the problem came up. Thanks in advance...

Turned out to be a hardware problem common to Nexus 5, something with a connector inside that needs some pressure on it and loads of YouTube videos about it...

[FIXED] OnePlus 7 Pro Microphone issue with speaker

Most of oneplus users are having this issue, once you open the speaker in calls or games or any other apps the mic would be sick and not working good, and it also have an echo for call records, i searched alot and finally find a solution works for me
First you have to be rooted
Download Build.prop editor
Open the app and search for
HTML:
persist.audio.fluence.speaker
Make it false and save.
Reboot your device and it will be fixed. :fingers-crossed:
I hope it works, please share it with others.

I mean it's not stable and sometimes the voice cancellation ignores my voice as the people can't hear me.
Gonna give this a try because it's super annoying.
Yo,
I tried everything you said but nothing was working, so I rooted my phone, and installed lineage OS 18.1 following this instruction. The microphone issue that I had for so long was gone (low mic input on whatsapp, snapchat, even Loudspeaker calls), unfortunatly the GPS wasn't working for me on this ROM, so I installed this rom and now it's fine.
I am having issues sometimes with the popup camera not going in sometimes but having a mic that work is so good that I close my eyes on that !
I have been searching for a fix for a very long time, so I hope it will help you.
Cheers,
Alexandre

18.1 hotdogb phone app issue

I hope this goes to the right place, if not can someone direct me to where it goes.
I'm having an issue with what appears to be the phone app. i can call out but when the recipiant picks up all they here is a beep like a old school fax whine. I've searched this issue and I'm at a loss. Phone is Oneplus 7t with 18.1 hotdogb with no Google.
Thanks for any help,
Lowdownin
It is not just the phone app from my digging. I am also having the same issue with Signal, as well as another dialler I have installed to test. It also happens when using a SIP client both in the Phone app and separately (Mizudroid).
Regardless of how the call is made (inbound to me or outbound to another), all they hear is a high pitch tone. I can hear them fine. Hitting mute stops the noise for them, however unmuting restores it.
I have checked and the phone records sound via the microphone and when in speaker mode and the playback is perfect.
As per @Lowdownin928, I am at a loose end. I am in the process of downgrading and will report if that has an effect.
New ROM released today, tried that first - https://download.lineageos.org/hotdogb. No change.
Downgraded to the last before the one I was having trouble with - lineage-18.1-20210926-nightly-hotdogb-signed.zip - however this has the same issue.
At this stage I cannot work out why the ROM could cause this but then using other ROM's does not fix, even when doing a full wipe. Something else is going on.
Am looking at reverting to a t-mobile or international ROM to go way back and see what happens. If that does not fix it then I am stumped, as it seem to not be hardware. Very, very strange.
OK, so have installed an original t-mobile version of Android 10.0.3 for the 7T and low and behold, it works perfectly. No issue with outbound calls from SIM or SIP, did not bother testing further.
For reference, factory default t-mobile rom I used was at https://onepluscommunityserver.com/list/Unbrick_Tools/OnePlus_7T/T-Mobile_HD63CB/Q/, put phone in EDL mode and run the MDM. Came up fine.
Proceeded to System Update to v. 11.0.1.4.HD63CB. Reboot then tested for outbound noise on calls - no problems at all.
So at this stage the only way to fix this is to revert to the stock ROM, even with 11 it works fine. I have no idea what has happened with the LineageOS ROM but there is a fault somewhere. I am heading off to ask the question (and hope you will as well) but hope all this detail gives you an idea of where to go.
Just had a thought - there may be other ROM's that work fine, it could only be LineageOS that has this issue. If you don't need the feature set then look around in here.
Super surprised no-one else has had this issue, but there you go.
Success. Thanks to LuK1337, Lineage Team Member on the Reddit Support area this seems to have cleared the issue.

T-Mobile firmware isn't supported, you can flash retail one by following https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/hotdogb/fw_update
---
So bootloader, flash lineage recovery, enter fastboot mode inside lineage recovery, flash all the .img's as laid out and then follow the rest of the install. Took a long time and careful reading but this was the key for the phone noise.
Thanks LuK1337.
Just wanted to let you guys know that I was also having the same issue and this solved it for me. Thanks so much dmc.kiint and LuK1337
