This has been happening on my Epic 4G for awhile now and it's really frustrating. I'm pretty sure this hasn't been happening the whole time I've owned the phone, but at this point it's hard to really remmber.
Basically, when I make or receive a call, within a couple\few minutes of the phone call the caller suddenly can't hear me - this happens whether it's using the phone normally, in speakerphone mode, or even a headset. As soon as it happens and the other caller starts the "Hello? Are you still there?" I can fix it by toggling the speaker on and off (or off and on) and it fixes it - but it can suddenly start again at anytime...couple of minutes later, five minutes later, etc.
Right now I'm slowly removing apps from my phone after every call this happens on - my goal is to determine if a particualr app is confusing my phone. I don't think it's the ROM or modem I'm using (Frozen 1.2, EC05) as I did a stock flash and flashed to those just recently and others aren't having the same problem. I DID restore some data so if I can't narrow down an app that's causing it, not restoring any data is my next option (but even more time consuming to figure out specifically which data is causing issues).
I'm pretty sure the phone hasn't always done this so I don't want to exchange the phone considering I don't have any other issues and I think this is software, not hardware related. Has anyone experienced anything similar to this?
Have you tried switching Roms, I have this same problem on EC05 when I moved to gingerbread it stopped happening.......
Do you voodoo installed?

I was having the same problem with EF02 and the EF02/EF10 modems. I switched back to the EC05 modem and haven't had the problem since (knocking on wood)...

I do have Voodoo installed (since it comes with Frozen 1.2). I haven't tried switching ROMs yet but I have started looking again (I was pretty content with Frozen but if no one had a similar issue and changing the modem doesn't work then a ROM switch is my next try).
Thanks to others who suggested changing modems - I'm going to do that now and see if EE03 fixes this....*crosses fingers*

Go into you Voodoo sound settings and change recording setting to Original. Shoul fix your issue.

Sure you are not hitting the mute button by accident? Sounds dumb but I've done that before.

Yes! Mine started doing this a couple months ago, and I resolve it exactly the same way (though I have to hit the volume button once, either up or down, then toggle speaker on then off). It's definitely not the ROM because I've had it with both Froyo and GB ROMs. Unfortunately, I haven't found any other solution, yet. I'm hoping it will go away with official GB, but I have no real reason to think it will work. I'm going to play around with the Voodoo sound.

you guys shouldn't be having this problem make a backup then odin to ec05 stock and check if you still have the issue if you do just take it to sprint and show the tech your problem they should fix it or get you a replacement phone.
I have the same issue. I am completely stock. It usually happens 10 to 15 minutes into a phone call. I've already called sprint, taken it to a store but only reflashed the os, and I just recently spoke to someone on chat, who said the problem has been solved. If it happens again should I get a replacement phone?
Blankrubbers fix actually worked for me

I had this problem as well. I odinned stock and problem solved. Now I'm back on bonsai with no problems.
Edit: I just noticed that I don't have voodoo sound installed, I know that I used to, maybe deleting that solved my problem and not odinning back to stock.

speak up i can't hear you
Sadly even after changing modems and making the adjustment in Voodoo Control I still have the same problem. Going to uninstall Voodoo all together and see if that resolves anything.
I just discovered that I'm having the same problem after I Odin'd back to stock EC05 for a different reason. So, EC05 and EC05 modem, and I'm having a problem that I didn't think I was having before I tried EF02.
Could something have been changed that going back to EC05/EC05 modem didn't resolve?

This problem is not generated by Voodoo. I have a stock Epic (rooted) and have never had Voodoo installed on my device and I have intermittently had this problem in the past (haven't seen it for a while, though). My friend has an Epic (never rooted) and also has this problem.
About the only thing I've heard that people have said fixes this is to wipe cache and dalvik and then flash something using Odin. Stock or custom I don't think matters.
As others have noted, uninstalling Voodoo didn't fix it for me. I think what must be causing this is everytime I wipe and install a clean ROM I restore some data through TiBackup and SOMETHING I'm restoring is causing this. Guess I'll just have to wipe and be very careful about what I'm restoring.
This might be completely random, but by chance did other people that experience this problem happen to install NZBAir?
Hello xda members! I have been experiencing a strange problem with my "T-Mobile G2"'s microphone and would like to share it with you in case you had any insight on it:
My phone's microphone is not working - I cannot use voice input, music recognition services, etc. all it picks up is silence. What makes it a "strange" problem? Well, the microphone will work during calls, but ONLY IF I first snap out the keyboard and then snap it back in! Sometimes the microphone will fade out and then go silent again, at which point I'll open/close the keyboard again so that the other party can hear me again.
I thought it was software at first, but then I flashed it to stock and still had the same issue. Now I'm worried it might be a problem with the ribbon cable that connects the two halves. Have any of you ever heard of a similar problem? Any suggestions as to how I might fix it?
If it is intermittent and you reflashed then my guess would be hardware like you suggested.
Most likely you mic is loose. Does it behave the same as opening and closing if you just hit it or shake it?

Thanks for the replies, I honestly didn't expect any! Interesting thing.. I flashed MIUI yesterday and now it feels like the problem is fixed. I've noticed a slight lag before the mic responds the first few times but now it's spot on. I don't see why flashing to stock didn't fix it while flashing to MIUI did so I think it's just a coincidence and that this is still a hardware issue.
I'll try and poke around explore this more when I get more time.

Do you superwipe?

Yup I did use superwipe.
Incidentally, the issue returned after 2 days of working perfectly. Doing a wipe and then installing that same ROM fresh (not a backup) did not fix it so that new most likely ROM had nothing to do with it. I'm giving up then and calling this a hardware issue, period. I guess it's a good thing that the HTC One phones are are coming out soon!
Hi everybody, for about a week I experience the following annoying problem. When I call someone or receive a call I don't hear the person on the other side of the line through the normal speaker. When I switch to loudspeaker I can hear them loud and clear. The strange thing is that it does not always happen. It is definately not a hardware problem, the speaker sometimes works fine. When I can't hear the person on the other side pressing the volume-up button several times sometimes solves the problem and suddenly the audio works...
I noticed the problem earlier this week after I flashed CM 7.1 again. Before I had an Andromous rom with ICS installed, but I didn't like that one so I flashed my good ol' CM 7.1 again. When I noticed the problem I upgraded to CM 7.2 (with full-wipe) and also flashed another radio. Unfortunately all these things did not work...
Does someone have any idea how I can fix this annoying problem?
Right now the call function of my phone is pretty useless
Ps. the person on the other side of the line can always hear me.
full wipe, multiple rom flashes, even with it being intermidete it sounds like hardware, slight chance the flex is going bad, more likely the speaker needs to be replace or at least fiddled with. any recent drops?

It is certainly not a hardware issue. When I install Skype and dial the Echo / Sound Test Service I can hear the everything just fine through the earpiece.
then you aren't wiping properly, fastboot -w or superwipe or both. the stock dialer doesn't have sound issues that I'm aware of and there must be curroption somewhere. change the radio will not change this, flash a vinilla rom after a full wipe and see what happens, don't restore anything

Still having this problem...Back on CM 9 (RC2) after wiping everything and again flashing a new radio. Matched RIL and everything. Nothing seems to work. Microscope is still working sometimes, but most of the times it doesn't. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Good day!
Since today my m8 only records loud noise through the mic..
For example if I record a voice note you only hear loud distorted noise, like when you are searching for the right Radio frequency, and my voice is very very quite..
I never dropped the phone and never get any physical damage..
Can anyone help me or does anyone have an idea or experienced the Same issue?
Thanks in advance

I have the same issue and have no idea if its a firmware issue or what. I hadn't noticed the issue until I came across your other post in lyapota's kernel thread.
Hopefully someone knows what the issue is and how to correct it.
Okay, I did a clean reinstall of arhd and now everything is back to normal... But still have no clue where the issue came from

And we will never know now that you've done a clean install
Next time, try a dirty flash of your ROM.
It'll often fix stuff up, and you won't lose any data.
Just reflash your ROM, and only wipe dalvik and cache.
I have that same issue. I did clean install ARHD but that's not solved my problem.
And while talking with someone they can't hear my voice.
I think thats hardware problem. I'll send it to warranty service :/
Weird, just started having the issue 2 weeks ago as well. Tried different roms, flashed new firmware etc... Nothing

Since yesterday evening I did encounter the following problem.
Plugging my earphones wouldn't send any audio to them, speakers always active.
Microphone nevers works, not in calls, not in apps, not while recording a video.
I did perform a factory reset and installed paranoid android, still the same problem. I am restoring OxygenOS last version right now...
It's been a very frequent problem since the beginning of october, did anyone encounter this issue recently?
This sounds like a hardware issue to me. Were there any potentially problematic events (drops, moisture ...) in past 2 months?

Not really, no, I did also notice that I can't save videos at all.
EDIT: after a HARDRESET (using MSM downloader) to Marshmallow, updating with OTA, everything works again... WTF?
EDIT2: I have been able to record a whatsapp audio, working fine. Did try to make a phone call, doesn't work anymore
this has been occurring to me also when using iphone earphones. but using other earphones works well. try using different brand

Not earphones issue... I had to simply clean the connector, the female jack on the phone, there was some cotton on the end!
Edit: the mic and the earphones works for few minutes, but after a while they completely stop, only a phone reboot solves the problem (just temporarily!)
I did install the Android Mic Fix Magisk module... My phone seems to be working correctly since few hours now.
Update: not even Android Mic Fix solves this... the only temporary solution I have is to Reboot the device
frankdd89, have you found the solution? RN i have the same problem, I have flashed my and everything was solved but, like 3 days after again just stooped working well. I have a doubt whether is a hardware issue due to the mic works well during several days, let me know what did you at the end..
I have the same problem! I'm going Mad!

ive been having the same issue with my oneplus 3 for last 8 months. I have tried resetting, restoring, turning off google voice and have replaced the mic/charge port twice but nothing seems to solve the problem. Would really like to find a solution to this problem as i tend to think it's software related because i started having the problem after an update. At first was sporadic but mic is completely out now.
Hi all, i have the same problem with microphoned earphone
I have tried many type of earphone but the problem is the same (at the first connection and use, the microphone doesn't work , at the second try (record voice or call) without disconnection of earphone the phone change the icon in the status bar, from the icon of earphone with microphone to the icon of earphone without microphone and start to use the integrated microphone in the phone) i attach image of the status bar icon
- I have tried the same earphone into another OnePlus 3 of my friend and he doesn't have the issue
- The internal microphone work good
- I'm using a CTIA earphone (in this case i use Samsung original earphone with microfone founded into an original Samsung device box)
- I have tried to factory reset the phone, clean from dust the earphone hole but nothing as changed
now i think to send phone in warranty assistance to OnePlus ...

Have any one found a solution for this issue?
Similar problems
I have similar problems. It started six weeks ago with the headphones that could not be detected. Then calling stopped working. Back then I rooted my phone and all the problems where gone. Until last Sunday my phone app crashed. Now all the problems are back again. I tried wiping all my data (also internal storage) and installing a custom ROM. This did not help. Does anyone have any suggestions? I really like the phone and it is still in mint condition.
Thanks in advance
