This is a self inflicted problem. :crying:. When I took apart my OneX to do the WiFi fix, I must have damaged the connection to the main MIC used for phone calls. Now my WiFi works brilliantly, but no-one can hear me on calls.
Just to be clear:
A wired headset with MIC works OK.
A Bluetooth headset or car kit works OK
Recording video still records audio OK. Assuming this is because it uses another MIC in the handset.
Unless someone has an idea how this can be resolved in a different way, the sort of thing I would be looking for is a utility to switch the MIC to the one used for recording video. Then I could use it with different ROMs too.
Any help or thoughts? Please?
PS: I have reviewed all the threads about tools and mods for something like this, but can't find anything. Was hoping the audio mod tools might do this but looking in detail, they tend to only improve what you hear, not what is recorded.

Hello.
I have installed Cyanogenmod 11 on my HOX.
although everything looks to be working fine, I still have issues with my Bluetooth.
When driving in my car, and want to place a call, I used to be able to use Cyberon Voice Commander to place the call.
It still works when i use it on my phone without Bluetooth, but when I am connected to my car everything stays silent.
It worked with stock firmware, and I can recieve calls using bluetooth, and I also can use the car stereo to play music from my phone,
but just making a call with the Voice commander does not work.
Does anyone have similar experiences with this, or does anyone have a solution?
Search the thread, been mentioned a lot there !
Hello,
I have been searching, and also looked in the thread for the HTC (HTC One X CyanogenMod 11.0 nightlies, http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2583037) but I could not find an issue which is matching my problem.
Unfortunately I am (yet) not able to post this issue in the HTC One Cyagenomod thread...
I don't own a BT headset so I can't properly debug the issue. I know that a lot of people complain about it but there is not much I can do unless they actively try to help. You could provide logs when pairing the device, turning it on and when doing a call.
I might by a BT headset in the future. So there is hope .
Hello,
I was not sure which logfiles you wanted, so I grabbed the output from dmegs and made a logcat and put it in a zip fie.
Here they are.
Thanks for your effort, though.
Thanks for the logs.
Can you describe the behaviour a bit more? What exactly does not work? Imitating the call through Bluetooth, hearing your partner through Bluetooth or recording through Bluetooth. And can you test other apps for me. Like Skype or the normal phone without cyberon.
Do you know if your car is recognized as a normal handsfree Bluetooth device or something special? If you happen to know it.
Also some apps (like Google Now) need to be told to use BT devices.
Hello,
Bluetooth itself is working normally, I can use it to play music on my car's stereo, and when I recieve a call it works fine, I can hear the other party, and they can hear me.
It's just when I want to make a call, I can see Cyberon Voice commander starting up, but I don't hear any sound, and it also does not respond on voice commands.
When I disable Bluetooth, the app works normal.
On stock HTC rom, the app also works fine.
I own a Ford Focus 2011, and it shows up in bluetooth as Ford Audio.
The profiles active are audio for telephone and audio for media (sorry, translated from dutch).
The default Voice Dialer at least I can hear on my headset, haven't tried in the car yet with this version of Cyanogenmod.
It does not seem to respond to the micophone though.
The previous version of Cyagenomod would also not play over my car speakers.
Will try again when I get back home, did not use my car today.
Please test tomorrows nightly. I fixed some issues and I think they address your problems.
Try this Kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586808 On the latest Version is a fix for BT maybe it helps
Hello,
just tried to test the "Voice dialer" through my car stereo, I can hardly hear it, and it does not recognize anything I say.
At least not in a way it would be useful for me
With tomorrows version you mean CM-11-20140314-Nightly, or the one after that?
Could not see anything about Bluetooth in the changelog, but I'll wait for the next version.
Will report back.

With the other kernel? You probably already had the BT fix when using the CM kernel.

Hello,
I tested it with yesterday Nighties, and it's working now.
Cyberon Voice Commander could now be used with the Car bluetooth set.
Thank you for solving this.
I hope the logs I uploaded were of any use.
btw, I did take a look at the change log, and the line "tegra3-common: system/audio.h: Use correct DEVICE_BIT_IN bits" didn't ring any bells in my head in combination with Bluetooth.
Anyway, it is solved for me (and maybe for several others as well), so I want to express my gratitude by saying: Thank you very much:highfive:.
My old lovely M8 worked perfectly in my car using the exact same cable that I now use for my new crappy G3 :crying: . Problem is that the sound through the speakers is working as expected but when I make a call, the person called cannot hear me, even if I shout.
Is there a MOD out there for tweaking the microphone sensitivity or am I going to have to get a bluetooth headset just so I can make handsfree calls?
All help appreciated
Hi!
Today I installed my brand new car audio system (JVC KD-R871BT) which should enable me to make phone calls via bluetooth.
I have made some test-calls.
Unfortunately the conversational partner doesn't hear my voice (he says I he can't barely hear me).
The microphone volume over bluetooth seems much to low.
I played around with my car audios settings (noice canceling, mic boost, etc...). But nothing made it better.:crying:
Is anybody else experiencing this issue too?
Do you know how I can fix this?
Everything else works really fine. I can hear the conversational partner very clearly and loud enouch. Also the music-streaming via bluetooth works very smoothly... just the microphone volume seems to be buggy.
Please help!
Regards
Webrat

Hi!
Update: this seems to be a problem with HTC One M8.
Today I tested it with another phone and it worked.
Anybody else with the described problem?

Hello.
I am on latest AEX 6.7, I have bought a pair of bluetooth 5.0 headphones, and the audio on call is really bad (they hear me far away). I'm pretty sure it's the ROM's fault (the headphones are of excellent quality).
Is bluetooth bad on any AOSP ROMs? Do you have any suggestions?

Is this module for record phone calls? The recording of phone calls is already integrated in the AEX, and that isn't the problem.. the problem is the poor quality of the microphone of the bluetooth earphones in phone calls.

You didn't understand the meaning of my post.
Phone microphone is ok, both in voice call (also recorded), and VoIP.
The problem is when I connect a bluetooth headset, so the default microphone becomes the bluetooth headset, so when I make a phone call (normal or VoIP) my voice feels very low and far, and my caller struggles to hear me.
So, I asked, since I'm sure the bluetooth headsets are of excellent quality, if I could do something to improve the bluetooth of the zuk in the calls, because I read around that the problem could be of the AOSP roms, but I don't want to go back to a rom stock only for bluetooth (and I'm not even sure it would improve).
(If even now you have not understood the meaning of my question, you are a troll)

Is the recording OK when not using BT headset keeping recording format same.
Just to let you know.. There are other users who have faced problem of similar kind whose issues have resolved by changing audio recording format to aac.. I also use Bluetooth headset seinhizer HD 4.40 BT.. I have no such issues coz I always use the module and no such issues for me.. That's why I suggested..
I don't troll.
Skavalex has option to select recording source as internal and not mic which could have solved your problem.

Ok, i will try. Thanks ?
Tws earphones are often limited in this, the mic is actually far away from your mouth so you might get low input from them, the fault isnt your phone, its just that even the pricier tws earphones suffer the same problem. Its just physics, when you speak, the sound goes forward but the mic of the tws is near your ear so the sound gain is very low. Try using the same tws on other phone amd see if the problem persists

Yes.. I solved it by changing the smartphone Unfortunately, by switching to ROM AOSP there is a worsening of many things, which come out in daily use, for example, the audio in VoIP video calls (whatsapp, Instagram, etc.) is poor .. they hear me very far away or with disturbances .
Hi everyone. I ask you for help because I am a GOLF 5 owner with an Eonon GA5153F installed (which should be an MCTB) originally with Android 4.4.4 which I then brought to version 5.1 with a rom
The problem he has always had is related to the audio quality in calls. Until I used it, I used the hands-free phone and that's it, but now that my wife uses it, I prefer to be careful while driving and therefore call and do everything via the car radio. The problem is that the audio I get is really HORRIBLE. Practically whoever is on the other side of the phone hears nothing, hears 1 word every 5 and at a very low volume (I've already gone to the factory settings and turned up the bluetooth but nothing changes).
I've read that many of these Chinese have made hardware changes, removing the capacitor and resistor on the bluetooth module or similar, but I can't find anything about my car radio. Have any of you done this? Does anyone of you have photos, videos or something that tells me on mine which component I have to desolder, which track to open, or what to do?
Please because the quality that this car radio has on call is really a shameful thing!
Thanks a lot to everyone
P.S. Currently I have connected (in the back of the car stereo) an external microphone (the one that was inside the car stereo package)
