Earlier this year I took apart my phone to replace the screen.
Ever since around then(not sure if it coincided with my repair or not), my microphone doesn't work in speakerphone. It works fine on normal calls, but if I have speakerphone on no one can hear me.
I would have thought this would be a software problem, not a hardware issue. Is there any way to fix this?

Hi, i upgraded to the Black 3.01 ROM and the 1.43 radio. Everything was working fine but now when someone calls or I make a call I can not hear anything, but what's weird is that I can hear everything fine if I put the call on speakerphone. Does anybody know what the problem could be and any possible fix?
Your earpiece could be broken. I'd say call your phone from your house or other phone. Place that phone in a different room or other end of your room and put it up to speakers of something and play music. Then answer the call with your Hermes and mess around with where the earpiece is to see if you can get some sound out of it. Do things like Open/Close it (Slowly) squeeze where the earpiece is, etc.
Your ribbon cable connecting to the mainboard of the phone to the LCD, buttons on front, and earpiece could of got torn causing the earpiece to fail.
This happened on my wizard and very well could happen on the Hermes because they have the same basic build structure.
Or you could try a hard reset and re-install a rom to see if that helps.
When I make calls with speaker on, I can hear the other person but they can't hear me. Just started doing this. Also, Bluetooth speaker has also stopped working, any ideas...?

I had the same problem with the speaker on and no one being able to hear me. Turned out to be a defective phone in my case. Apparently there must be a different mic used for speakerphone calls vs regular calls. Since you also have a bluetooth issue, maybe your problem is different than mine.
just tried hard reset and its still the same, will have to send it back under warranty, major hassle
Flashed 10g again, microphone now works
Suddenly my Zenfone 2 earpiece and mic don't seem to be working. There is no sound heard when there is a call and the other person is also not able to hear me. Could it be a software or hardware issue? The SIM works in another mobile.
Hello,
have a problem with my HTC 10 when I make standard call there is no any problems, but when I switch call to loudspeaker people tell that they can't hear me, phone usually lie on the desk during this calls.
Is this hardware issue, or software? I use Viper ROM. This phone have two microphones right, which one is used with loud speaker call?
Hello, the same speaker like without Loudspeakermode. Try another ROM at first Stockrom, shouldn't help this i recommend to contact your seller.
speaker no matter if phone is at the ear or call is in "speaker" mode works without any problem,
my problem is with microphone but only on "speaker" mode because then other side can't hear me.
to resolve it, I've bored out the microphone hole on the bottom of the case enough to make sure the mic is fully exposed and that appears to have done the trick.
So here is the problem. I have tried talking to Google Support and also LG Support. Not under warranty anymore. I have heard several different people mention problems with their mics in calls, be it incoming or outgoing. I have done several things to try to fix this problem; flashing stock firmware and upgrading thru OTA's, clearing cache, rebooting every day, flashing custom roms, modifying the build.prop, opening the device and checking for physical damage. To my knowledge this phone has 3 microphones that are used for actual speaking and background noise reduction. When I opened the device everything looked ok on what I assumed were the mics (the tiny square bits soldered to the logic board at the top and the bottom). I assume these were just going bad and finally gave out on me. Has anyone had any experience getting these fixed or repaired? Is there any software based approach I can look into? I am really tired of using my speakerphone in every call. I assume I am not the only person with this problem.
If anyone can shed some light on this or help in anyway I would appreciate it
Thanks!
I would start by describing the mic issue you are experiencing during voice calls.
Haven't had any myself.
No one can hear me using the microphone, as soon as I switch to speakerphone the other party is able to hear me.
I've read mics can stop functioning if you try and clean the phone with compressed air. As far as fixing or replacing a mic I am unable to provide assistance.
Well rats. Hopefully someone can shed some light on getting this fixed. I do have some soldering experience but I don't even know how this translates via the logic board. Anyone that has more information the help would be awesome. Thank you for your time though previous posters.

I have this problem as well, but also all media volume can't be heard through the speakers. I've personally cleaned and replaced the unit and nothing works, I just have to choose speaker and start talking, else use a headset or a bluetooth mic
Same problem, no solution yet.
Think that is a software/driver/app combination bug.
When Iam in call hardly can anyone​ hear me, if I cover top mic - then im heard again (proof that bottom mic is working).
Top mic is used to cancel background noise, phone interpret your voice as background noise and volume it down. That way nobody can hear you.
When I cover top mic - no background noise detected and my voice is heard again.
Question is why top mic detect legit voice as background noise?
Same problem here. Can't use microphone normally on any sort of voice call. I have to change to speaker for people to be able to hear me. I'm not sure if I still have warranty so if it's a software problem I might be able to fix it by myself.
