Hello there!
The microphone on my Sennheiser MM30i (as you can guess, i stands for iPhone) is not working with my i9190. I had a Galaxy W before and the microphone was working fine (both on stock and custom roms) though the buttons on the cable were not working properly. Now both the buttons and the microphone are not working.
I tried the stock earphones that came out of the box, they are working just fine. Is there any way to fix this? Would it be fixed somehow if I installed a custom rom or on official KitKat update? I would really rather use my Sennheiser instead of stock Samsung earphones.
Thanks a lot in advance!
Anyone has an idea? Where should I be asking this if "no one" in XDA knows the answer?

Hello, i wonder if i am the only one with this issue..
When i started using my one X (quadcore version) all seemed to work fine, then i received and installed 2 new updates from htc and my internal microphone stopped working in calls and with any app i tried.
I havent rooted or installed any custom roms. I tried the hard reset, and still nothing. It seems that the updates have problems with the internal mic, because with headphones works fine.
Any ideas?
Im trying to find how to downgrade my firmware to see if it helps.
Thanks in advance.

I need to clarify the problem, because headphones are for getting sound out of the phone, and mic is for getting sound into the phone, so I'm not sure why you mentioned headphones.
Also, you can't downgrade the software without unlocking.
Check the microphone hole at the bottom of your phone. Might be clogged with something. I had the same issue with my incredible s. Mic had suddenly stopped working. Found out that I had peanut butter stuck in the microphone hole on the cover
Hi all,
Quick question, has anyone experienced issues with the microphone while using Skype or Hangouts after the latest (last week's) OTA for Europe?
At first I thought it was bad design on a case I got, but the issue persists even without the case (and there actually is a hole in the plastic for the mic), tried Hangouts to make sure it wasn't just Skype, so I'm thinking it might have to do with the OTA update.
The mic wasn't doing wonders with capturing before, but it appears to be unusable for Skype now unless the tablet is held at the same distance as a phone.
On a relevant note, is anyone aware of any tools that could help adjusting mic gain or disabling the automatic gain control/ noise cancellation features?
ROM is stock LG, rooted.
Me too
Same here with the exact same setup.
I've tried alsamixer but this proves useless until you know witch setting is involved among hundreds of available mixers.
I wonder if an external bluetooh or USB microphone is not a better option.

Same issue
I just recently got the G pad and I definitely have a problem with the mic. Is this happening on all the G pads or do you think is a hardware issue on my device?
I tried with Skype and Hangouts and my voice was barely audible on the other end. Just to make sure it was not my internet connection I tried with my old trusty Galaxy S2, no problems there so it is definitely a problem of the G Pad.
I have no screen, warming, yellow lines, light bleeding or any other issue. So, the device is perfect except for the mic, do you think it is worth to take it back to the shop to exchange it for a new one or this will not cure the mic problem?
Any luck tweaking the mic in software btw? Finally, has anybody tried to use a bluetooth headset and microphone with it, is it possible?
Thanks!
I am also having mic issues currently on sw ver v50010a.
it seems very quiet. update is downloading so will see how it compares.
I'm on software ver V50010b and I keep having issues with the microphone.
Don't know what to do... the rest of the tablet is perfect, so I'm afraid to exchange it just for this issue and get a new one with more problems.

Hey everyone. My note 2 gas given me many troubles, first the chip EMMC failed. I created a thread explaining the situation. Bootloop, recovery failed, etc. So I bought a phone that had a broken screen. I replaced the motherboard and everything was going fine but cellular signal was failing, I gave it back to the owner. (I also created a thread about it).
Now, I bought another phone with the broken screen. So I replaced the motherboard one more time. Everything works ok, cellular signal, wifi, camera (both front and back camera), wifi, speakers, etc. But I have a trouble with the microphone. When I'm on a phone call I can hear people but people can't hear me, unless I use the speaker then they can hear me. I suppose that the mic from the top of the phone is the one that is working when the speaker is turned on.
I've done some reading, and there are many solutions, cleaning the mic, factory reset, installing other ROM,etc. The mic isn't the problem. I tried the mic of my note 2 and the other mic too. The problem is present with both mics. (Both phones are the same variant by the way, GT N7100 international version).
The phone is on 4.1.2 Jellybean, I'm thinking on update to 4.3 first via Odin, if problem is still not solve then upgrade to 4.4 kit Kat via Odin as well. If problem persist, then flash a recovery via Odin and then install a custom ROM 5.1.1 and if the mic problem still not solved then flash a 6.0.1 custom ROM.
I don't know what else I should do concerning this issue. Any advices? Or solutions? Has anyone had this very same issue?
The mic doesn't work at all, I tried video recording and the only mic that works is the top one, not the bottom one. Voice recording doesn't work as well. Headphones does work. If I unplugged the headphones while having a phonecall the bottom mic still isn't working.
Hope you could give any advice or solutions! Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my English skills.
Did you try moving the swapping out the USB fix cable between both phones?
I doubt that it's a software problem because I have not come across a situation where a mic does not work on a particular stock rom.

Yes I did. Problem still there. I also did a factory reset. I'm thinking that at least one of those mics are working OK. I mean, it would be really really bad luck having the 2 microphone malfunctioning. My microphone was working fine before the EMMC chip crashed. After I replaced with other motherboard with no cellular signal it was working fine as well. This motherboard tho everything is working fine but both microphones.
Yes, that is weird. Maybe you need a new mic? That might be the cheapest solution.
