Earpiece and Mic are dead? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

All of a sudden, i can't hear anything out of the earpiece and the mic on my phone doesn't work either. If I switch to speakerphone, everything works fine. I tried rebooting, removing battery, etc. but still the problem persists. I even tried updating my ROM to the latest CM nightly build (wiped the dalvik cache, then flashed). No luck. Has anyone else seen this happen? Maybe it's a hardware problem, but it sure seems odd that both the mic and earpiece stopped working when it's not on speakerphone...
Thanks

UPDATE: I wiped my phone (factory reset) and installed the latest CM nightly - and it's working fine. Would be great to know what happened to my to my old build...

[Q] dead microphone after flashing aosp rom

hi, after flashing any aosp rom (slim rom, cm, paranoid, ...) my microphone is dead. i don't hear the other caller and he can't hear me. the microphone is fine because when i flash a tw rom afterwards everything works fine again. interestingly the mic works after the first restart after the flashing. as soon as i restart for a second time the mic is dead.
it does not matter wheater i flash with clockwork mod or twrp. i always make a full wipe (cache, dalvik cache, factory reset, internal memory, rom; basically all reset options twrp offers) before installing the new rom. i install the new rom (any aosp rom) with a new kernel that fits the android number and the correct gapps. sometimes i used the old kernel but it makes no difference regarding the mic.
i don't think i make anything wrong during the process because everything else works just fine. so far i always ticked the box to restore data with my google account, can this be the problem.
any clues where i go wrong? i hope someone can help me with that problem because i love my note 2 but i hate tw.
thanks in advance.

[Q] No Audio during calls

Hi,
I recently flashed AOSB ROM 1.3.4
After flashing, I did the usual setup and then everything was working fine.(Calls/SMS/WiFi etc.)
After usage for around 2 hours, I rebooted the phone & from then on I am not able to hear any audio during calls.
I flashed the ROM again & the same problem persists.
I have already tried below approaches.
1. After flashing & setup, everything works fine until first reboot. After which the problem persists.
2. I also tried factory reset & still it is the same. No Audio during calls after a reboot (after setup).
3. I tried with other ROM's like paranoid, slimkat etc. I am facing same problem with these as well.
Please suggest any fix.
Thanks,
Ramu
Did you do hard reset before & after instal??
Or try *#0*# (if you have samsung based ROM). Its service menu and try retriever
Yes. I did a hard reset before flashing.

Can't solve mic problem

My mic is not working at all on the system, in service menu it worked with the cam corder, but once back in the system it stopped working again, no call, no sound record, nothing, that was in stock, im now in lollipop.
I,ve tried everything, replaced the flex, tried different radios, plain stock, build prop lines, everything, it's just not working, any ideas? Oh, in lollipop i am unable to reach service menu for some reason.

HELP all my audio is coming through earpiece instead of loud speaker

Hi so basically I was running Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 and decided to upgrade to 6.0 (based on Android 8.1), anyway that was going fine now I'm not sure when it happened but all my audio is coming out of he earpiece instead of the loudspeaker and I can't change it!! I've tried everything including reflashing my backup of 5.7.5 (Android 7.1) which was before this happened but it still witness go away.
I've tried:
Clearing caches, formatting system, data, dalvik catch, cache, reinstalling my backups of my ROMs several times, reformatting the aforementioned partitions, looking online, build prop tweaks, taking more calls to try and trick it into staying (I though maybe a call made this happen because the earpiece is the default speaker for that), changing firmware (to 8.0 then back to 7.1) but NOTHING and it's driving me mad. I've had an unending number of software problems since getting this phone and I'm getting really really sick of this. Someone please please help me please. I need to be able to hear my alarms.
Sam.

In-call Sound only on Speaker

Hello guys,
I have a strange issue with my 5t, a few days ago it started with the Sound output over the speaker athene bottom while in call. If I Press the Button to switch to the earpice speaker, nothing happens, same for Bluetooth devices.
I tried to reflash my Rom and disable everything that makes sense for me.
I didn't do any change to the System and installed only two Apps when the issue occured.
Any ideas on how to fix this or did anyone have the same problem? The search engine didn't bring up anything useful.
Greetings
EDIT:
Im on The5tOS with Flash Kernel and rooted on Magisk 15.3
I have the same issue
The only thing that helped me was a full wipe including internal storage and reflashing the Rom, now everything is fine.
Still have no idea what caused this problem
i had the same issue. i just uninstalled the deep_buffer module from magisk and now the earpiece is working fine again.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This solved the issue
The good thing is that Viper4android works fine without the deep buffer Module
