Hi. Maybe anybody can help me. I have a metallic noize(voice) when I do calls. I tried other modems.. nothing change.
Can hear sample here
Some times I had the same problems with my N7100. On my device ond or two reboots helped.
But the bug was there until I made a factory reset (because of other problems )

try different ROM or apps. I think it's related to some apps that provide in app calls.
Do the full wipe and go with stock ROM and without 3rd party apps, then install one after another to see what is causing this issue

Everyone is complaining that my outgoing audio is horrible. They hear me, but it is muffled, with an echo, and not very clear.
I'm not sure if it started when I installed AOKP, or whether it started after I installed the new skin.
Ideas anyone????
Can anyone specify where the two microphones are? I know that one is on the bottom. But I can't find the other one (unless it is on top under the back cover)...?
try turning down the ear piece volume the mic can pick it up
This happened to mine as well. I had to factory reset it, but that fixed the problem. Obviously some update (most likely) or program caused it. Backup everything first (apps media and data). I then reinstalled my apps from the app store then recovered my data from the backup.
Remember, the reset will erase EVERYTHING on the phone -- including "SD" memory.

A couple of questions:
1. which ROM are you on? Are you on stock ROM or AOKP?
2. I did a factory reset before upgrading to AOKP Build 28. A factory reset DOES NOT wipe the SD card. It only wipes app data and rom data. What reset are you talking about?
I'm wondering whether this problem is due to something simple as a modem change. Feedback anyone?

Well I did a factory reset and installed AOKP Build 31 and I still have the same problem.
The factory reset DID NOT format the SD drive, so I have no idea what you are talking about.
Is anyone else experiencing bad outgoing audio?

First of all, I am sorry to hear that you are having this problem. We welcome you to our lives. A lot of CDMA Gnex and a few GSM GNex users had this issue arise more than 4 months ago.
Second of all, I don't think you searched for this issue yet, or you just haven't found it, so I'll do the search for you. This issue is somewhat prevalent.
1) the post I made about this issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1604730&highlight=microphone
2) the post most of us with this issue have been following here on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1403051
3) And the location map (Although, I personally believe location doesn't even matter because even according to this post, it pretty much happens everywhere):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1545621
4) Google Issue Report:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24019
The bottom line:
1) there's no fix as of yet, even if some users naively recommend you to get custom ROMs, Radio, Factory Reset, the chances are, none of will work.
2) due to severe variations among devices, some have whole lot worse than others (happening as soong as 5 sec into a call on every other call), some have it better than others (never had it happen for weeks, but infrequent enough for it to be any "issue" per say.)
3) I have noticed many of the members here at XDA don't even use GNex as a phone that much but rather a very nifty computer you can flash OSs on. Hence, the issue might be a little bit more prevalent than users report simply because many of us don't use this phone as a phone.
4) When you hear from problem free users "You are covering mic with your finger", "It's probabaly user issues, check out the apps that you installed."
Stay calm, just realize that some hasn't seen this issue and do not understand what we are going through.
5) In the mean time, I recommend you not using this phone for business purposes (e.g. try landline or second phone for conference calls, etc). Or even use a flip phone for business purposes. You may also try to get a replacement hoping the other one will have less issue. But it will have it most likely as well.
Let the other party know if your voice becomes robotic sounding and starts breaking up, let them know you'll call them back as soon as you call them.
6) Contact your carrier, and let them know. Many of them actually have been telling all of us the fix is on the way since January, so who knows..
Hope this post saved your time understanding this issue in depth.
Thank you for reading my 4 months of investigation regarding this issue.
Charlescom: I read through your posts and I am doubting whether I have the same problem as you.
My OP stated that people hear me, but it is muffled, with an echo, and not very clear. Your posts state that the microphone cuts out entirely or sound turns robotic. My microphone has never cut out.
Is this really the same problem?

In a broader scheme of things, it is a similar problem or even a same problem.
I had people tell me 1) my voice turned into a static robot that chops up 2) muffled with an echo...as well..

i am not sure if these two audio issues are even related and if the N1 fix can be adapted to the GN--just fyi for the real techies

Well it seems that the fix works for some people on the Desire and on the Nexus One on a 4.04 ICS ROM!
Can one of you tech experts check it out???
It was the only fix that worked for me--my issues were no onboard working mike and overdriven audio to listener as well as echo. I am on that rom--bcmics 4.0.4

Now we need to know whether it works on the Galaxy Nexus GSM and AOKP...
And can someone create the fix in the form of a CWM zip? Most of us have no idea how to use ADB.

Cwm zip is a good idea. Learn how to use adb. It's actually pretty damn easy.

Can someone with expertise here create a CWM version of the audio fix for us? And comment on whether it actually works on the Galaxy Nexus GSM? And AOKP?
I'd love to find out whether it works!

I got this issue while running AOKP.
Yup. Never changed ROMs faster.
Solution: Different ROM

Which ROM are you using now on your GNex GSM? I think that AOKP is based on CyanogenMod so I don't think CM9 would work either.
Are you having this problem with calls only or does it happen when you record audio with the mic (I.e. a video or voice recording)?
Personally, I'd stick with stock rom and kernel as the custom stuff often introduce issues here and there and troubleshooting them can be a nightmare.

I just tried a video recording with the front camera and the audio is great. Sound recording in the same conditions with Tape-a-Talk sounds pretty bad (robotic). And calls sound pretty bad too.
Could it be that the stock camera is using/not using the second microphone for noise cancellation, and the calls feature isn't?
Hi guys, i have just encountered this problem, it was fine in the morning but gone wrong later then. The calling audio is not working and also the no sound from callers when answer the call. However Everything works fine, The in-call vol is max, songs can be played, calling using speaker on is viable as well as when headset is put on. The normal call is just not working even though it is factory reset
Mind to figure out what problem is this? thanks!
Freddy
Try flash the latest radio , and another kernel , if this doesn't work you should send back you phone . Have you been in a high humidity environment or drop water on in ?

Hi everyone!
I took some time this weekend to look into this problem again. I tried different roms, including different ICS and JB and even went back to stock (nand backup from first day). No success, still no sound from the front speaker when calling.
While flashing i tried both with sim card in the phone and without, i always did full wipe and flashed boot.img from fastboot. Still not working. No app that needs this speaker works, i also tried skype and talk. So i am out of options now. Is there anything i can do? Would it help to flash a different kernel?
I guess the hardware got broken somewhere along the line. Would HTC fix it under warrenty? Does anyone have experiences with that?
Thanks again for all your kind help! I know this might be cross posting but im going to try and get my problem solved in other threads as well.
Regards heintosz..

I had the same issue and got it fixed at the HTC service center. I also had wifi fixed and changed my LCD since there were yellow spots on my screen. Since the phone was under warranty everything was done for free.
Ok thanks, i will try HTC sercive center nearby. Though im on unlocked, rooted device so im not sure how they will react... will report!

You'll probably want to return it to stock to make life easier.
As the title say, whenever i make a call or someone calls me i can't hear anything on the other side but they can hear me.
It started suddenly a few days ago, a temporary fix was to keep restarting my phone until it works again but it usually only works for one call and after that its back to no noise. I already tried unrooting, going back to stock and wiping my data completely so its factory reset but the issue still remains.
Thank you for taking the time to read my problem and i hope to read any advice you might have for me.
Cant hear and mic doesnt work but call is made?? help

Good day!
Since today my m8 only records loud noise through the mic..
For example if I record a voice note you only hear loud distorted noise, like when you are searching for the right Radio frequency, and my voice is very very quite..
I never dropped the phone and never get any physical damage..
Can anyone help me or does anyone have an idea or experienced the Same issue?
Thanks in advance

I have the same issue and have no idea if its a firmware issue or what. I hadn't noticed the issue until I came across your other post in lyapota's kernel thread.
Hopefully someone knows what the issue is and how to correct it.
Okay, I did a clean reinstall of arhd and now everything is back to normal... But still have no clue where the issue came from

And we will never know now that you've done a clean install
Next time, try a dirty flash of your ROM.
It'll often fix stuff up, and you won't lose any data.
Just reflash your ROM, and only wipe dalvik and cache.
I have that same issue. I did clean install ARHD but that's not solved my problem.
And while talking with someone they can't hear my voice.
I think thats hardware problem. I'll send it to warranty service :/
Weird, just started having the issue 2 weeks ago as well. Tried different roms, flashed new firmware etc... Nothing
