microphone volume issues

hi,
i have a rhodium with windows mobile 6.1 stock rom.
Does anyone know how i can change the volume of the microphone for telephone calls?
I have the strange problem that people complain that they can't hear me very loud. When i reflash (hard reset doen't work all the time) the microphone volume is ok again.
Can someone please help me with this problem?

no one has any idea how to resolve this issue?

Does your ROM have a setting for automatic gain control? That adjusts the mike based on ambient noise. On some of my former phones I've had to turn it off or the device lowers the mike sensitivity.

hi, thanks for the reply,
When that option is turned off i can't be heard at all.

i'v got same problem whit my phone when i flashed nand cm7 on it.
is'nt it related to the rom?
is it possible that the flashing changes the other settings of radio or ...
the microphone is working but volume is low and i have to yelling on it to talk with people!

Most volume issues are related to the rom.
Flashing the rom can change the radio, but may not. It will tell you what gets changed if you watch the screen during the flashing.
Microphones do fail. If all roms are having the same issue then you probably have a hardware issue.
Flash back to stock. Then if you are not having issues try asking for help in the thread for the rom you want to flash. If you are still having issues then it is 99% chance that it is a hardware issue.

This.
My gf's phone (completely different device) had a similar issue, and it was definitely not software. I looked, the mic port was clogged with whoknowswhat. Took a pin and carefully picked the stuff out. Mic works great now

Rainbows and magic sprinkles. They get stuck everywhere.

Speakerphone works, but normal mic+speakers broken :\

Good Morning,
Unfortunately my HTC Touch Pro2 has stopped working properly.
Everything works fine except microphone and speaker when I answer a call (or call someone). I can still communicate via speakerphone, but that's rather inconvenient.
Is there anyway I can fix my phone?
(it's out of warranty)
Thanks for all suggestions,
Alec Taylor

Isn't this the answer to your problems?

Thanks JackOS (I use your ROMs BTW), but that didn't fix the problem...
The other caller/call-receiver can hear me, but I can't hear them.
Please tell me what I can do to fix the problem (I tried the .cab, and when that didn't work, I tried the manual Phone->Advanced setting change)
Thanks,
Alec Taylor

If you use my roms there is no need for the fix I provided.
Looks like you have a hardware failure. There is nothing I can do about it.

Did you ever find a fix? My phone started having this issue yesterday.

If it's a hardware issue, there isn't much to be done software-wise... as Jackos clearly states.
Good luck.

Most probably your Flex ribbon cable is going bad.

[Q] One X calling audio issue

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 ?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

i can hear ppl talking to me .. but they cant hear me ....
i have to turn on speaker to talk to ppl all the time
i am not sure its a hardware problem or software problem
i tried the *#*#3424#*#* and did the test .. cant record any thing

Same here. Any ideas yet??

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.

[Q] Speaker problem

Hey guys, i'm a new ZL user.
I have problem, most of the time i receive a call, the speaker turns on by itself. Idk if my cheek did it, but i didnt experience anything like this before. I already turn off speaker voice enhncement in call setting as i thought that was the culprit, but it isn;t. The problem still there. Anyone encounter the same problem?

hmm the solution didnt work

Can't hear callers when using speakerphone

Hey all,
Just wondering if anybody is having a similar issue. Before I get started I did a quick search and havent found any recent threads stating the same issue.
What happens is often I will place a call and immediately switch to speakerphone so I can put the phone down and be handsfree, however for some reason I cannot hear ANYTHING the other line is saying, but they can hear me just fine. Switching back to earpiece does nothing either. This problem has been happening for about a week or so.
The only remedy I have found is to either call back, or reboot my phone but both of these options are unacceptable IMO.
Has anybody else experienced this? If so, what was your solution? I have gone through all the call settings and nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. I don't mute or hold calls and my call volume is almost at max.
Any help or input is appreciated.

Same problem since I went to lollipop. Met a lgcrep who had never seen this

Thanks for the response. It must be a pretty bad software bug then

The problem is with the 3/19 update of the Google search app. Either roll back the build on your phone or disable OK Google from any screen. Same problem exists on KitKat.

OMG thank you so much!
I was starting to think I would never be able to use speakerphone again

You are welcome. I almost RMA'ed my phone. Apparently, lots of people have already only to have the same problem as soon as they apply updates.
Here's the apk for the older version. Make sure that you roll back updates to the installed version of Google (and turn off auto-updates) before installation:

I had this same issue and disabling the from any screen feature fixed it. I do like that feature however and would like to continue to use it. Do you know if the version in your link supports that function? If not do you know if there's a version that does that does not interfere with speakerphone function?
Thanks.
