Hey guys, I'll try to be as specific as possible. It's been a little over a year since I've had this phone and this happened within maybe a month of me getting it. I've looked online but haven't had any luck other than one dead XDA post from last year.
When I got my G3 from Tmo i rooted it and installed xposed and then G3 Tweaksbox so I could enable call recording. After installing it something happened (most likely installed a rom since I was still on the stock at the time) and the call audio became erratic. Since then I've had intermittent call audio from the ear piece, bluetooth calling still works, audio with a plugged in headset still works, speakerphone still works, just nothing from the ear piece. I figured out that if I pulled up Skype and placed a call to the test line, and jacked up the audio while the call was taking place the ear piece would magically start spitting out audio, and it would continue working until I rebooted my phone, then it would stop and I'd have to do the skype nonsense all over again. Since then I've had many, many.......many full wipes, kernel changes and various roms installed. For the longest time i was using Blisspop but as of a month ago with one of the updates the call audio just stopped working completely. Now I'm using SlimLP and am still having no luck. I have no idea what's wrong and am all out of ideas.

I've had my phone since Sunday, but I just put the SIM in it last night, and hadn't placed a phone call until today... That's when I discovered the horrible noises that the microphone is making during every call.. Even happens when using the built-in voice recorder.. Does not happen on a bluetooth headset, and persists after a hard reset.
Yep, that's right, going back to the store.. Sigh...
Happily the ATT store had a Tilt 2 in stock, swapped it out today without any question. They didn't even really look the phone over or verify my problem, which I was surprised at..
First thing I checked was the voice recorder, and it worked, so I've been charging and restoring. One interesting thing though, was that my ROM version appears to be different.. I'm opening a different thread on that one though.
First off, forgive me if this was already answered, I tried searching for about 15 minutes before I decided to post this.
As the title states, I'm having an issue with my gnex where I get this high pitched and crackling sound when receiving SOME incoming calls. I can't hear the person, and whenever they speak, the noises get louder so I can't hear them at all.
I think it's software, rather than hardware, since it doesn't happen on every single incoming call. From what I can tell, actually, it's totally random. But if I call the person back it is fine. They could even call me right back and it's fine.
My friend who also got a gnex from a different vzw store has the same issue. His also appears to be random.
Do you guys think it's just network, random phone problems, software issues, or all three?
Info: Verizon Wireless CDMA Galaxy Nexus running fully stock 4.0.2
For the record, I too am experiencing this issue. I also have the issue via 3.5mm jack and during other audio playback. At first I thought it was just my low-quality aux cable I was using in my car, but then I experienced it on a normal call. I was thinking software for this reason too as it happens via the jack as well as speaker... (Also happened watching Netflix, so that covers all audio output but bluetooth.)
Are people on custom roms experiencing this? I wasn't going to root this phone as I didn't see too much of a need, but I will if it will get rid of this issue.

if by crackling you mean it almost sounds like a fax sound, squealing, similar to this description, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453769 , then yes I had this when I ran stock but now that im running francos, AOKP, and the 4.0.3 radios(which arent included in most 4.0.3 roms), i have not had the problem.
My GF had a problem where her mic was bad, about 50% of the time i got a call from her she would sound muffled, almost as if underewater. She exchanged it at VZW and haven't had any problems since.
Hello Guys,
im owning my Gnex for a couple of months now,
last week it suddenly stopped recording/transmitting my voice with speaker on.
So everytime i choose my speaker for calling the other one doesn't hear me.
I tried to disable/enable mic, everything i could try.. no luck or success.
I also noticed the video camera is no longer recording voice.
Tried different roms, kernels, radios... all the same effect.
Also took out the battery for hours.
It seems the microphone itself is okay, but i dont know whats happening there.
Logcat showed NO issues.. :| someone got an idea?
Greetings
I know this may seem like an asinine suggestion, but did you check your sound settings? I was worried myself when my camera was not recording voice nor making any shutter sounds, but then I noticed that my multimedia volume in the sound/volume submenu was muted.
i triple checked all of my settings, did wipes, restores...all the magic i got.
no way out of this ****... just asked amazon for a rma now.
Not what you'll want to hear, but I've returned a gn once due to a inop camcorder mic.
Download a sound recorder that allows for you choose your mic input source and you'll find out pretty quickly if you have a hardware problem.

Just realized my mic is not working when trying to do voice to text or record.
So I've been browsing the forums trying to look for anyone with a similar issue but to no avail. Now I'm not sure if this issue pertains to CM9 but I've noticed that ever since I've flashed RC1 or a later nightly, every app that uses the microphone reverts the phone speaker to call speaker. This is highly irritating as I have to put my ear to the phone every time I want to hear say, music, notifications etc. I usually reset this by plugging in a pair of headphones and then taking it back out, however the problem still persists every time I use the mic. This does not happen during calls so that's fine.
I am quite certain that this isn't hardware related because it only happens after using the microphone through some app and resets itself using the headphone workaround or a reboot. Again, I don't know if this is a singled out issue or if it pertains to the phone or the latest CM9 ROM.
Any help would be appreciated.
So after updating to RC2 and then again to the latest Nightly (20120802) I still have no luck with my loud speaker and my call speaker. To test this I usually use the Tune Me app and mess around with it and record some things but after using the app, instead of playing through the loud speaker like its supposed to, it plays audio through the call speaker.
Also, when I previewed CM10 and was playing around with Google Now with voice the same thing occurred. I don't know if there's a conflicting issue with some apps I've installed or something that installing the ROM did but any form of support would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Hello,
Spent all night/morning trying to find a fix to this issue but to no luck!
Basically during calls my voice isn't heard at all (But I can sometimes hear my own echo) (Tried numerous ROMS based on stock and CM) but when I put my device on speakerphone I can be heard. Blowing into the mic during a normal call emits a normal blowing noise down their side of the phone but speaking into the mic directly does nothing.
I've tried cleaning the mic out but again nothing, no debris etc.
I've already sent my phone back due to a raised screen and LG didn't fix it- they sent back photos of a completely different phone (wasn't even a G3) and I've heard nothing since my complaint a few weeks back so I don't want to send it off once again.
Any ideas?
Thank you
