Mic not working in calls and sound recording - Sony Xperia M5

Hi guys. Really hoping someone out there can help me. I don't know what I did to my phone. First it was having problems calling where the call would cut as soon as it dialed, it wouldn't even ring once. Then the mic stopped working. So I did a factory reset. The calls work now but the mic does not work. I get it to work sometimes but mainly it doesn't. I had rooted it with kingroot earlier so I tried unrooting but I am not sure if it works. When I use the app to check root status it says it is not rooted properly. But my droidwall app which uses root still works. However file explorer with root does not work. When I access engineering mode my mic level is always on 0. I change it but it keeps reverting back. My video recording works and it does record sound. Really not sure why the mic won't work on calls or on sound recorder. I tried under diagnostics also doesn't work. My software updates also fail to run. When I run superuser it says other applications like it are installed, when I try remove it it doesn't work. I ran an antivirus scan and it found kingroot as a problem but I can't find it under apps to uninstall. And on the anti virus when I click to uninstall it it says failed.
My android version is 5.1 and Model number is E5603. I am scared to return it to the store because I'm no sure if its still rooted. Any help will be highly appreciated

Try this:
Install KingRoot again and open the app,in setting of the app find an option to uninstall/unroot that should unroot your device.
After you've unrooted repair you device with Xperia Companion,you can download it on sonys web site,but you might get an update to update your device to MM,if you don't want to update your phone to MM you have to use flashtool to reflash your curent firmware,but be careful flashtool is a little bit complicated,so do some reading first.After that you take your device to repair,because i think your problem is hardware not software.2-3 months ago i had to take my device to repair because of speaker problem.
The reason your videos are working is that xperia devices have to speakers one for calls and recordings and the other for taking videos.Hope i could be of any help. Good luck

[Q] The exact same OTA Updates constantly coming to my device?

I have literally said yes to updating every time it pops up. I know it's the same, because it's the same size every time (293.3 MB). Not to mention I've said "accept" every time, installed, reboots my device, then couple days later it tells me to do it again. Another thing to note are the same 3 systems apps asking to be updated (Voice Mate Speech Pack, Voice Mate, Voice Mate Engine).
Text from the update:
This update will ensure your device is working at optimal performance with the Sprint Network. The update will require that your phone is rebooted and it will not be available for emergency calls while installing the software.
My LG G3 is the Sprint variant (ls990), rooted via Stump Root and on the stock android. I have used G3 TweaksBox, as well as installed Xposed.
PM me for a link to the screenshots.
Anyone with an answer? Google only refers to Lollipop updates that are still not here anyways

You know OTA`s will only be installed when a device is unrooted and doesn`t have any system modifications. Either disable OTA notifications or flash a stock rom and have root removed or flash a custom recovery and rom.

Yaar my issue still exists its not rooted and I am using in Pakistan - also my Roaming setting crashes as soon as I open it. Would be better to root and add custom ROM to it?

Is Viper4Android FX working with a rooted G4?

Hello.
after successfully rooting my G4 and installing busybox.. I have also installed V4A. however, after installing the drivers, I can't get them to actually work.. (driver status shows unsupported and abnormal.)
anyone knows if V4A works with the G4? and if so, how did you get it to work?
thanks!

You need to set kernel to permissive. Selinux switcher apps will correct your issue.
I set to permissive installed v4a of viper and used awesome player instead of nu player. Yet changing eq doesnt do anything

TUrn off any EQs that you may have on in your music player.
And if you go into the settings menu > Driver status > What do you see here?
After setting to permissive you should get a different message at the bottom when you access V4A compared to when you didn't have it (If you kept note)
Here is a great guide how to make it work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/general/to-root-apps-t3165390/post62107040#post62107040
In addition to the above, I had to force enable V4A and switch to FX compatible mode to get Spotify to work. My other apps worked without those changes.
About gave up for months, then it clicked in my mind when i saw a post mention to make sure all other audio apps redirect eq to viper, and if not, change them. Even if you dont use a certain audio player app, change it too.
Problem is, i could not get the lg music app (which i never use) to change the equalizer to viper, it just had it's own default settings, so i ignored it. So i decided to revisit the lg app, and froze the app with link2sd, i also froze the lg video app too, just in case. Rebooted and now viper sees NEON and i can even run without compatibility mode (which did not work consistantly for me) .
I tried all steps to get this to work, not sure what other things are needed for everyone else, but i tried moving viper to system, installed selinuxmodechanger, maybe this can be uninstalled now, i have no idea. I have no plans to fix what isnt broken and find out myself, so just try freezing lg music app for starters.
Hope it works for you, if so, let the community know what steps you had to do!

Huawei Mediapad M2 A01W Rootin Help

Just bought a demo tablet from work and have had problems trying to get the retail demo app removed 'Liszt'
I have managed to disable the app, however this only works temporarily, as soon as you restart the tablet you have to go through the whole process of disabling again.
I have tried factory reset.
I have tried Kingo Root through a computer, it said it had succeeded however did not install SuperSu so obviously did not root properly. I have tried installing SuperSu through google play store however whenever you go into it it just comes up with 'SU Binary Occupied' so something obviously isn't correct.
I have installed 'System App Remover (ROOT)' an when opening the app it seems to think that it has rooting capabilities however when trying to uninstall Liszt it just says that it has failed.
I am pulling my hair out here trying to get this sorted and every tutorial or online info on this tablet is outdated and has links that just go absolutely nowhere, so please do not just send me to another thread where all the information and files are just non existent as you just cant follow it.
Anyone out there with previous experience in either rooting this tablet or removing 'Liszt' let me know what options I have.
Thanks in advance!

damn, I now see this...
That could be the problem!
I flashed the rom again, without rooting it, and now everything works. So if I want to keep recording calls, I have to go back to previous Android version...
If you use EdXposed and GravityBox Q you can enable call recording via GravityBox.

You can use the apk in the same thread though, it runs automatically at every boot (requires root)

Need help disabling Carrier Device Manager

So I came here looking for some help, I was on YouTube and saw a video from a YouTuber named ETA Prime about a moto g fast and how I let would be perfect for a android emulator device that was 89$. What he didn't say was that you would at some point need to activate it cause a little popup from CDM would tell you that you haven't activated your device yet. I am now rooted and have used apps to freeze/uninstall certain apps only to be met with a "failed to uninstall" message. I don't know what to do all I want to do is use it for games. I assume my last resort is to flash a custom rom..if that's a case what does everyone recommend?
Flash stock firmware did it for me. Still can't activate it but the annoying Boost garbage is gone. I was also able to stop it from alerting me that there is no sim card in the device.
Do you mean were not able to activate due to you flashing a stock rom? Are you able to use wifi?
