[UNRESOLVED] Microphone does not work

Hello,
I recently got a One+ plus phone.
Today, my phone's microphone all of a sudden did not work.
If I call someone they aren't able to hear me. But, if I use Speakerphone they CAN hear.
If I use an external headphone cable. They can hear!
Please help me quickly fix.

Did you install something then mic stopped working?
Did you changed any settings then mic stopped working?

Do you try a hard reset?. (Backup data first).
Regards!
Saludos!

I don't have a oneplus one, but I have the same problem on my Nexus 4. And so do many others from googling. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't now. I do have to turn on speakerphone when the mic doesn't work or use a bluetooth device. I bought a replacement mic and waiting for it to see if its a hardware problem since someone else was able to fix it by replacing it, while others don't. Try clearing the Google Search app and trying it. Some users were able to fix there's on the N4 by clearing the data or deleting that app. I noticed mine clearing it gets the mic back working, and I also noticed it messes with my bluetooth device. Playing music on the Music app or Youtube app it will pause, and I will keep pressing play but it'll pause it immediately unless I swipe up for google search and go back to the app and it'l play just fine.

I was on stock and this happened!
Please help guys!

I have exactly the same problem.
My friends can't understand me anymore when we are talking. They can hear me, but my voice sounds kind of "metallic"... like a robot..

Your main mic might be damaged. Try the mic mod from the OP in this thread and report back

No sound occasionally when making a call

I have a Galaxy S5 Active and have recently started having a problem. Occasionally when I dial a number, no sound will be output even though the phone is making the call, and the timer at the top corner counts as if the call is working. I'd say it does this about 1 out of 5 calls, I have to hang up and call back and it will work fine. I am not positive, but I think this may have started with the recent 4.4.4 update. I really dont want to restore my phone if not necessary.. anybody heard of this issue?

Maybe it's the front ear speaker issue or network connectivity problem.
Next time you get this problem, see if the loudspeaker option helps to find if the front ear speaker is damaged

I have tried this and there is still no sound even in loud speaker mode. I have also verified that other caller cannot hear me also

I think this issue is with Google play services... Try to search on xda or Google about it. I had read somewhere about it

Tried clearing cache of google play services like suggested in another thread.. but it didnt help

I should also mention that the problem only occurs when I am the one making the call, never when I receive a call

If you have root then try to disable google play services and other Google apps. And check if problem occurs in 2-3 days.

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.

facebook messenger MICROPHONE not working :( :(

its TOOOOOOOOOOOOO Bad that otherside cant hear my on FACEBOOK MESSENGER, and my phone works pretty good on normal phone calll skype call. and LONG PRESS TO SEND VOICE MESSAGE on facebook messenger. anyone had the same problem??
anyone who could help me koz. i stay abroad and need to be in contact with my family al the time. PLEASE HELP

everyone'S MESSENGER CALLS WORKING FINE??

It's weird that "press to send voice message" works and not the voice during a call, but maybe the first one is not directly related to your app. Did you check that Messenger has the permission to use your microphone ?
In Settings > Apps > Messenger > Permissions > "Microphone" should be activated.

yes

YEAH i tried the permissions. if not permission for MIC why would it send sound clips. still the same problem. anyone else had this problem?

I currently have the same problem on my Samsung Note 4 (n910f). Everything works perfect, except video calls on facebook messenger. Sending voice clips over messenger works. I tried to mess with the permissions, updated messenger app, updated phone firmware, tried everything. On every other apps the microphone work flawless. I event send facebook a report, but haven t heard anything.

how to make permission allow there is not any open close mark

Know this is an old thread but I found it through a Google search with same problem.
I found the problem for my self.
It's not only microphone permission it needs, I needs phone permissions too. Why I can't tell. Poor development maybe.

Iphones too
I have the same issue with messenger BUT it was working great on my android devices, but I had to switch to iOS... and guess what... I used an SE then a 6s and later a 7 (bootloop so back to 6s. I don’t want to spend a fortune on new ones) every single one had the same issue with the mic. I’ve tried to install the messenger first after a clean factory reset... and I had the same problem. My wife is using her iPhone with no issues at all. I am still using android as a secondary but my main phone must be an iPhone (flickin company)...

I got the same problem on my Galaxy note 10 plus with messenger microphone.
But ONLY when i make a video call. When i recieve a video call it's working fine!! I call back and they can't listen me.
All other similar apps like DUO, Viber, What's Up, Skype are working fine.
Phone app working fine too. All apps and the device are working fine.
I reset the device and it solved but after some days it's back again!!
It makes me crazy!

LineageOS 16: Crackling sound with voice messages on S7 (SM-G930F)

Hey,
I recently flashed LOS 16 (coming from LOS 14) in order to hopefully get rid of my crackling recording problem.
The problem unfortunately is still there. I don't know if it's a hardware or software problem.
Phone calls are completely fine, however, the microphone makes a really annoying crackling sound whenever I record voice messages or use any kind of voice recorder on my S7.
Perhaps someone has an idea about what I could do. I already did some research but nothing helped.
Is there a way to disable the onboard microphone and just use a headset whenever I want to record voice msgs or make calls?
I'd appreciate any input.

Ever tried updating your baseband?

Yesterday I flashed the newest Samsung firmware. Voice seemed to work in the stock rom. I then flashed LOS again and the "crackling" in voice recording is back again.
I'm not sure what updating my baseband entails (and I don't know how to do it, actually).
