After 30 minutes of going through posts in this forum trying to look for a solution, and apparently I couldn't find what I was looking for, I've decided to create this post.
Something really weird started happening to my arc recently. Whenever there's an incoming call (call waiting) while I'm talking on the phone, everything gets muted immediately. I cannot hear the other party, and vice versa. Even though I answer the call waiting call, we couldn't hear each other at all. I had to reject the call waiting call in order to be "connected" with the current call again. At first I thought it was some carrier, reception issues, but it's not. The bars were full and I've tried restarting the phone, but it didn't help. I was wondering if anyone has the same issue after upgrading to 2.3.3 and how did you fix this? I didn't notice anything like this before I upgraded. Any help is appreciated!

Do you have the Viber app installed? I saw somewhere that some phones react like this because of Viber.
Sorry I don't seem to have noticed that either and I recieved a call waiting bleep while I was on a call just yesterday
I can confirm its the Viber app, I just uninstalled it and the problem is gone!

Yes, I can confirm this as well, but the problem is fixed on the latest version of Viber. Happy with regular call and Viber now. Thanks to everyone who tried to help
I dropped my phones while skiing and some snow must have got in because now, when making or receiving calls, I can not hear the other side and they can't hear me unless I use speakerphone.
No media sounds play any more, however the phone notifications and alarm still work. I understand that perhaps the media speaker has broken but why is the microphone still working only in speakerphone mode?
Is there an independent microphone/speaker set for speakerphone?
There is nothing else wrong with the phone.
[EDIT] Another side effect is that the Google voice search was not working.
Install this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.seb.audiotoggle
I think it will actually solve your problem. It did for me when the exact same problems started to bother me today after skiing as well!
You need to start it at every boot as it don't stick between reboots. Consider using a startup manager.
The problem seems to be a mix of hardware and software in the headphone jack, but I have not examined it much yet.
Thanks for the reply. The app you suggest should be very useful and I will download it anyway. However, this to say that the phone had fixed itself this morning.
I put the phone on charge overnight, and this morning, it asked for my sim unlock code, which I thought was very strange! But I entered the code that I had received from my network provider and now everything is working as it should.
It was probably something do with the remaining water inside the phone or possibly the cold temperatures.
Good to know! Maybe my phone fixes itself during the night as well
Still working?
Has the issue remained fixed for you? I ask because I have the same thing - the symptoms are that I can't hear anyone and they can't hear me, all media sounds are off, and the phone can't hear me.
I ran Tasker to monitor things, and the phone keeps thinking I plugged in headphones (with a mic), so that explains all the behavior. Running the headphone toggle app works temporarily - sometimes only a few seconds.
After doing a factory reset, sound would still come and go. With my Nandroid backup back on, same thing. I want to return it, and so I put everything back to stock, and noticed that now the bootloader is locked again, the issue is gone (for now).
I just wanted to keep the discussion going because I can't even tell if it's hardware related or not, and other people probably have this problem, and it takes some snooping to realize it's the headphone connector (vs sound settings, speaker issues, etc.). It could be a short (my guess) but now that it's working today I can't return it as the tech would probably claim nothing's wrong. I also already used up the one return my stupid carrier allows, so I'd rather fix it myself if it's software-related, instead of sending it out for repair.
I still have this problem, even after cleaning the headphone plug. My guess is that this is a hardware problem affecting only a few. It makes the phone pretty much useless, as you can't hear the other part talking, so I made myself a software fix that resets the sound routing the the default speaker on every boot and incoming and outgoing call. I guess I can share the apk-file if anyone is interested.
Give it a try: ----
Can release source if you are interested, but I am currently in a car getting ready for a ski weekend
I am also having this problem with my Galaxy Nexus. I would be interested in seeing the source, if you are still up for releasing it.

See attachment for source, I also added a compiled apk file in the zip-file. You can open the project in Eclipse if you want.
Thanks for posting the source. I was able to work with it fine.
I've replaced my Nexus with a new one under warranty. Hopefully this one won't have the same problem.

Thanks for releasing this! It works great!
I was going out of my mind trying to figure out what was going on. I was unlocked, rooted in stock 4.02 when this started to happen. I thought it was bad signal quality because i only noticed it when I stopped being able to make calls and use voice dialer. I only listen to music with a headset, so never even noticed that it wasn't working with the speaker til I tried to play a youtube video.
I actually upgraded to stock 4.04 with new FA2 radios and thought I had cured it, only to have it happen again. When I read this I tried resetting all my notification sounds (Handcent, et al) hoping somewhere there was a conflict, but still couldn't find it. I'm using NOVA launcher - wonder if there's something in there?
Anyhow, I gave up since your audiojack.apk works great! Someday when I have time I'll go back to troubleshooting to see where the problem is coming from.
Thanks again!
Works temporarily

This worked, but the OS will eventually think the headphone is plugged in again and I have to press the "Force Speaker phone" button again. I wonder if there is an event that is fired every time the OS thinks the headphones were plugged in? If so, that event can be captured and code could look to see if the headphones are turned off by the user and ignore the event.

If you want the same routing fix as audiojack but have it done automatically in a service try this.
There is an issue with a lot of Galaxy Nexus where the OS thinks the headphone is being plugged in and unplugged on its own. Try this free application to resolve it:

I don't know what is the problem i don't think that are two microfhones one for speakers mode and one for normal mode...Maybe a software problem but i wipe and flash another rom and kernel i tryed 2 or 3 roms and kernel and i have the same issue.

Worked for me on Verizon GN. Verizon already has a replacement on the way... guess I should've done more extensive searching for a fix first!
Spoke too soon. Seems as though the screen doesn't shut off while I am on a call. Guess I'll give the replacement a try after all.
My T-mobile LG G3 has been working like a champ for many months. Now, call quality for person to whom I am speaking is very poor. It sounds like there is very faint speaking that drops in and out. This happens both on bluetooth and off, but is worse on bluetooth. There is no physical block to built-in or headset microphone. I know this because can record voice memo and do 'OK Google' dictation with ease. VOIP calls (Google hangout) are ok given my WiFi bandwidth.
T-mobile tier2 support tried to sell me on notion that lollipop might fix me (based on www_androidauthority_dot_com/lg-g3-problems-517832 ) but I'm skeptical and jumped at the offer of a handset replacement. Any other ideas out there?

Wow, my G3 just started doing this too. I've had it for 6 months and it's just been the past week that I've been having issues. It's hit or miss, but about 90% of the time I get complaints that the other person can't hear me or that I sound very faint. It's been driving me crazy. I've figured out that I can toggle speaker mode and it fixes it. Can you try that out see if it's the same for you?
I noticed this about a week ago, interesting. Wonder if it's something on tmobile's network.
This just happened to me as well on Tuesday, March 10th. I live in Los Angeles. A reboot seems to fix it for one call. This is kind of a big problem.

I'm now running in safe mode and a couple test calls to my Google Hangout sound fine. Don't think it's a hardware issue.
I've started to experience this too. It's really annoying. I hope it gets fixed soon. Though, I am glad to know it's not just me. I really didn't want to dig around in my apps to find the offender.
Question: Do any of you guys have the Nova Launcher Beta running? I think I started having issues around then.

Thanks! I downgraded and installed Google App 4.1.29 here http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-search/google-app-4-1-29-1706998-arm-android-apk-download/. Also disabled auto-update for Google Apps so it doesn't update to 4.2.16.87075793. I'll test it out and see what happens.
I also have had the same problem lately, just twice. A reboot fixed it
This is affecting me as well. I'm also in Los Angeles and the phone was fine until some time last week. I'm trying to the google apps downgrade now...
I also am having the same issue in my D851. My phone worked fine for 2 weeks and now 75% of the time the caller on the other end says they cant hear me and I sound like I am a mile away. This does not happen when I used VOIP such as hangouts. I am thinking about flashing a AOSP ROM until the t-mobile 5.0 build comes out.

Try downgrading the Google app. Worked fine for me.
Downgraded, seems better. Are people also recommending not to use voice activated Google now?
How do I downgrade the google app? I tried turning off the "OK Google" way, but still have the same problem.

In the play store for the Google search app click the uninstall button. That will return the app to it's factory version. Then just install the version that's linked earlier in this thread. Make sure you have automatic updates turned off for the app or it will keep updating.

Same thing happens to me. I had my phone for about 2 months now and sometimes people cant hear me or i sound like a transformer. i restart my phone and it fixes the problem but still does it after a couple days. I'm not rooted or anything like that. I also have a problem when I'm on a call. my volume bare goes up and down if i wanna lower and or raise it and the volume sounds the same even on speaker phone it does it too..
I had the problem turn off ok google from any screen and reboot and problem with voice calls fixed
I had this same problem. Maybe I should have came here first. I got a replacement in the mail a couple of days ago. New one seems to be working fine. Hopefully the problem doesnt start happening again.

I was gonna do a factory reset and if that didn't work i was gonna get a replacement . Hopefully this fixed the problem. The only issue I seem to be having is. when I'm on speaker phone or have it to my ear. and when i go to adjust the volume it doesn't change it. like i see the meter go up and down but the volume stays the same. its weird
I can confirm that after enabling voice activation for google now from any screen was the culprit of Mt audio issues. I was told I sounded far away or like a robot far away. Reset my device numerous times and reinstalled all apps and made calls. Once I enabled OK google from google now the issue came back. Disabled it and BOOM it worked fine. Haven't had an issue since.
-The story -
So I bought my mi mix 2 off swappa used and it was pretty much mint condition. When I received it it was on latest miui 11 global locked bootloader no root.. All worked fine for about three weeks. I ended up buying windows 10, again, which made me throw up a lil in my mouth. I did this so that I could use the mi unlock tool to unlock my bootloader. The java Linux tool no longer works to unlock if you use Linux so rn kinda forced to buy Windows. So I unlocked bootloader and then installed twrp and made a backup like I do with every phone since Android began. I then flashed HAVOC 3.1 using latest twrp recovery. I quickly realized my speaker decided to stop working in the earpiece soon after that. I ran some tests using apps and the earpiece speaker works, but NOT in a call. :crying:
-The problem I'm having in detail-
When I make a call to anyone they can hear me but I can hear NOTHING at all. Not low volume, but no sound whatsoever. If I switch to speaker phone however I can hear them and they can hear me fine. The top speaker that doesn't work during calls works when I tested it but refuses to work while on any call.
So naturally I Google searched the world for a few days hoping to find a fix. Then I thought maybe it was my recovery, maybe it was firmware I used, maybe it's a rom bug...etc...etc... I never proved it to be any of the things I thought it could be. I've installed other roms and I get the same thing with them. I've tried other firmware and same deal. I've disabled encryption, used magisk and not used magisk... Anyway, you get the picture.
Would anyone happen to know something I can do to fix this? I read some people touch up where top speaker is during a call ..That didn't work. ? I did 29 reboots and that did nothing. I checked the ear piece and cleaned what I could and that did nothing. I've wiped several different ways and used orange fox recovery and twrp different versions of both and that did nothing.
Please someone who's smart chime in and tell me I'm dumb and all I have to do is xyz and I can hear again from the earpiece on calls. Can it be a defective speaker? If so why does the speaker work fine on anything but NOT when making a call? Can it still be a defective speaker?
I did read TONS of reports of sound issues on Xiaomi devices across the board. That didn't make me smile much.. Anyway any advice or thoughts or anything would sure be extremely helpful and I'd forever be grateful. I hope you all have a good day and your speaker never acts stupid like mine is on my phone.

Try the latest version of Havoc 3.0, not 3.1. my device also has an unspeakable error on the call of messenger with most of the android 10 rom, i can hear the voice of the other side, but they can't hear me, after trying a lot of android 10 rom, i found only havoc os 3.0 is not making that error. Though it's not your fault, I think you should try it.

Mine is I can't hear them but they can bear me. What the hell is going on. Hahaha! If all else fails I'm going to get a new top receiver speaker put in at a shop close by. It does appear that many Xiaomi devices have had sound issues and have had speakers replaced. If you search on YouTube Xiaomi no sound on call or speaker replacement you'll see MANY videos on "how to." Quite a few videos specifically for mi mix 2. They should let us upgrade at least to the mix 2s for free.
I'll try 3.0 havoc but I've flashed around on Android 10 and 9 and problem hasn't gone away. Still zero sound on my end on calls but all speakers work doing anything else. Appreciate the recommendation. Thanks for commenting. Later today's ill flash 3.0 and see what's up. Then I may pull a few kernels from other roms and switch em out with whatever I'm on and see if I can't get something going that way.
I will also post a log of me on the phone talking and maybe someone can see something that's wrong... Hope so anyway..

I never thought that my sound issue was related to havoc in any way I am almost positive its a broken speaker. Looks as though that type of thing happens often on this device and other xiaomi devices. Google search receiver speaker replacement really fast and watch how many things show up about it. Its all over. I'm going to get a replacement. Using my moto g7 power rn as my main phone so I can have conversations and hear on my end. I always clean flash everything I flash. I never fail to wipe data, system, cache, delik cache on any install.
I have the same problem after installing Havoc 3.1. I tried updating the firmware...and rolling back the firmware to 9.5.16 to no avail

-The story -
So I bought my mi mix 2 off swappa used and it was pretty much mint condition. When I received it it was on latest miui 11 global locked bootloader no root.. All worked fine for about three weeks. I ended up buying windows 10, again, which made me throw up a lil in my mouth. I did this so that I could use the mi unlock tool to unlock my bootloader. The java Linux tool no longer works to unlock if you use Linux so rn kinda forced to buy Windows. So I unlocked bootloader and then installed twrp and made a backup like I do with every phone since Android began. I then flashed HAVOC 3.1 using latest twrp recovery. I quickly realized my speaker decided to stop working in the earpiece soon after that. I ran some tests using apps and the earpiece speaker works, but NOT in a call. :crying:
-The problem I'm having in detail-
When I make a call to anyone they can hear me but I can hear NOTHING at all. Not low volume, but no sound whatsoever. If I switch to speaker phone however I can hear them and they can hear me fine. The top speaker that doesn't work during calls works when I tested it but refuses to work while on any call.
So naturally I Google searched the world for a few days hoping to find a fix. Then I thought maybe it was my recovery, maybe it was firmware I used, maybe it's a rom bug...etc...etc... I never proved it to be any of the things I thought it could be. I've installed other roms and I get the same thing with them. I've tried other firmware and same deal. I've disabled encryption, used magisk and not used magisk... Anyway, you get the picture.
Would anyone happen to know something I can do to fix this? I read some people touch up where top speaker is during a call ..That didn't work. I did 29 reboots and that did nothing. I checked the ear piece and cleaned what I could and that did nothing. I've wiped several different ways and used orange fox recovery and twrp different versions of both and that did nothing.
Please someone who's smart chime in and tell me I'm dumb and all I have to do is xyz and I can hear again from the earpiece on calls. Can it be a defective speaker? If so why does the speaker work fine on anything but NOT when making a call? Can it still be a defective speaker?
I did read TONS of reports of sound issues on Xiaomi devices across the board. That didn't make me smile much.. Anyway any advice or thoughts or anything would sure be extremely helpful and I'd forever be grateful. I hope you all have a good day and your speaker never acts stupid like mine is on my phone.

This is just too strange. So maybe my issue does have something to do with installing Havoc 3.1. That was the first rom I flashed after I unlocked my bootloader and speaker worked fine on latest MIUI Global rom before... I wonder if it's possible to break a speaker due to a rom installation? I've never heard of that before. I thought surely it was just the rom and was a bug or a firmware problem. I flashed all kinda firmwares afterwards in latest twrp and also sideloaded a few to see if maybe something wasn't right with recovery and like you say it did not change anything at all. I still get zero sound on my receiver speaker while on a call.
I'm going to try a few more things and see if it does anything. If I find a fix or something that allows me to hear anything at all out of my end on receiver speaker I'll most definitely add it here in a post and to the op. Seems like there would be more people than us if it had something to do with Havoc... Idk. Appreciate your information. I hope we can get this fixed soon. I never even hardly used my phone when the speaker worked. ? I bought it used off swappa and about two weeks later unlocked and flashed Havoc and no sound during calls on my end.
Did you flash magisk also? Maybe that caused the problem...
I'm using Google phone but have also tried the stock Android phone as well as a couple of different versions of firmware. If no solution emerges I'm going to disassemble the phone and see if the earpiece has lost connection

I used an app off Google play store to test speakers and my receiver speaker works but refuses to work during a call on my end. It did have sound come through loud and clear when I ran the tests I did when it first happened. I've flashed using magisk stable, canary, formatted data, used different firmwares, everything know to mankind and searched around and tried several things online and nothing. I've been trying to boot the Android 10 GSIs to see if that makes any difference but have had no luck using the same vendor and boot everyone used on pie GSIs so I snatched some from different roms and still no luck on GSIs that are Android 10. Lemme find link to test all i used and I'll return and post a link. Brb

You should add your findings to the havoc thread...if there are 2 people with the exact same problem maybe the developers will take notice and investigate

I doubt it and I did make a post there a while back about it. There are many others there ok that thread who reported sound issues and I wanted to confirm what for sure caused it before I put the blame all on a rom... The speakers on this device have had issues MANY times based on all the reports i read all over the internet. But if I can confirm exactly what it is I'll dang sure be very open about it online and let the world know in hopes that if it was something I did maybe someone else won't and I can somehow prevent it. But I did make a post there when it occurred. Search my username on the thread and you'll see it.
When you set a ringtone does sound come from your top speaker? On my device it does. Just curious. See if you can hear any sound selecting different ringtones. ?

I did find some info about pixel users who had this problem, in that case the problem was caused by file association issues with the phone app and Google play services. Some people were able to fix by removing the permissions of Google play services. I tried this approach but many of the permissions cannot be disabled

I'm going to clean flash now after I do a backup and I'll install havoc and NanoDroid which eliminates Googles hold on all our devices. Once I get all setup I'll run some tests and see if maybe this solves it.
NanoDroid: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3584928
[MODULE/SYSTEM] NanoDroid 22.5.1.20200102 (microG, pseudo-debloat, F-Droid + apps)
No difference

On my other device , Moto G7 Power see the 8th post here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/g7-power/development/rom-havoc-os-3-2-t4058987
This time I haven't had it occur on G7 Power but when I saw that guys post I had a flash back. :/
I suspect FW issue. Started not using top speaker after SW update. 10.0.6 When I receive a call and press the volume button, the 'earpiece' icon bar appear. I suspect the phone switch the sound to the 'earpiece' even if there is no earpiece. I even switched Bluetooth off, and still happens. The phone thinks there is a earpiece/headset connected even if there is none. I think Xiaomi Mi devs should post a solution or update. The issue is wide spread.
[edit 17Jul20]
OK, it happened again today. No sound from top speaker when making or receiving calls. Had to switch to speaker phone. Then I cleared the 'Contact and dialer' app cache memory. (And for good measure the other caller and dailer apps also. TOP SPEAKER CAME ALIVE AGAIN!! So I am pretty sure its a bug/memory issue.
What I did: Long press the dailer icon - tap on App info - press 'Clear data' icon and select to clear chache memory.

What's crazy is this happened on my device just after I wiped data, system cache and flashed HAVOC which was the first rom that I flashed when I got this device. And I flashed my firmware and it did nothing at all. I'm getting a another speaker from eBay this week. They're only like $3 US. Gonna replace it and see what happens. ?
I am not entirely sure if I'm tripping, but I seem to be missing phone calls pretty damn often. I think I recall at one point I randomly grabbed my phone to have it by me and noticed that someone was calling me but it wasn't ringing at all, though the screen did light up. I made sure my settings do have have "Do Not Disturb" mode on. I have the CPH2451 and running stock with latest OTA A.10 update. After doing a brief Google search, I see that OnePlus has had issues in the past but those are from the OnePlus3 and OnePlusNord so I am not sure if that's still relevant in this day and age.
Anyone experiencing something similar or have any clues as to what might be going on?
Edited: Fat fingered the model #. Fixed.

This might be obvious to you, so just ignore if you know this.
When holding your phone in your hand like you're texting in portrait mode, there's a switch top right and on side of phone.
Adjust the switch so it's down.
Ive experienced this, even after swapping to 2449.
Seems theres a couple settings that revert on reboots for some odd reason.
Just go into the phone app settings, notifications and reset thr ring tone and all set after 2 times doing it ... annoying?? damn right!... but at least its fixable ....

That's so dumb... The more I use this phone, the more I get buyer's remorse.
I haven't restarted my phone since I got it I think but I'll try that and see if the issue persists. Thanks!
Edit: Any word if OnePlus is aware of this and plans on fixing it? If not, perhaps I should forward this to them.

don't know if they are aware. just to add to the weirdness of it... for me... after the second time, the setting sticks...
i have this problem with my 8 pro, the phone doesn't ring and i think it goes straight to VM? seems like something broke with one of the latest OP updates?
There's no such version as CPH2541.
And here it works perfectly. Factory reset and try again.
