Text input and inline mic issues - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

I got my OP3 quite recently so I installed 3.2.7 almost as soon as I set it up so I have a couple of issues but I'm not sure if they were already there when I was on 3.2.6…
Firstly, there's a strange bug where sometimes the keyboard won't actually put onto the text field what you're typing but the keyboard app still acts like you're typing it in (suggestions change, you have to hold down the backspace button for longer to delete words that aren't actually on the screen), or the text will be inserted in the wrong place (as I was reminded while writing this!). A quick fix is to switch keyboard. I have Xposed installed, but not many modules that I didn't have installed on my previous Nexus 5 on stock Marshmallow that didn't have this issue.
Another issue is that the inline mic on my earphones doesn't work. Or perhaps the mic broke around the same time my Nexus 5 did, or it's a hardware problem with the phone? But the earphones and the playback buttons still work as well as they ever have, with the exception that the earphones buzz a bit when I'm charging (but the Nexus 5 had the earphone jack on top). This buzzing was actually a recording of me saying "Testing, testing, 123" etc with the inline mic right in front of my face.
These aren't *huge* issues for me but if anyone can help resolve them it would be great.

Wired headset mic not working with CM7.0.3

Hey guys, always looked here first for info and help when it came to getting stuff done on android. I'm on the tail end of a lomg and arduous journey of migrating from my old Moto Cliq (mb200) to my now shiney new G2!
I originally got this phone for free from a friend cus it had water damage and woudnt show anything on the screen. I've since replaced the lcd and flex cable (both were damaged) and done some scrubbing under the keyboard to get it fully functional.
Last issue I'm having is that the mic on my wired headset isn't picking up voice. It may be hardware but I'm more inclined to think its software.
Any thoughts?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I'm also having this issue. In logcat I see that the headset gets picked up correctly, i.e.
Code:
Headset name: headset , mic:1
But the icon show in the notification bar doesn't show a headset with a mic, nor do any applications pick up the mic input. The play/pause function work for the button input, and the button presses get picked up as audio clicks (when recorded)
Apparently it does work with the stock rom though. Anyone have any data points on this issue?

Temporarily blown speaker

I just encountered a strange problem. As I was listening to Google Voice Search kindly tell me the weather, the response sounded strange... "crackling" doesn't describe it correctly, but it sounded as if it was coming through a cell phone with bad reception. I then tried to play some music and it had a similar sound.
At first I was worried that after a good 7 months, the speakers on my GN10 had magically blown out.
But I reset the tablet and now it's fine.
Has this happened to anyone? Should I be concerned about it happening again (or more frequently) or shrug it off as a one time bug?
I'm glad to see the warranty is 12 months (and not 6 months as I originally thought), because I wonder if this is worth sending in to Samsung for repair.
It's not hardware it's a software issue since 4.4.2.
Yes, it is an issue since 4.4.2 and you don't need to reset to fix it. Just put the Note to sleep using the power button, wait 5 or 10 seconds and then unlock again. Make sure you wait the 5 or 10 seconds since it doesn't seem to work if you lock/unlock immediately. If it doesn't work the first time, try a few more times. It works for me and it beats rebooting.
I have the P605 version of tab. I've already ticked and unticked the mono/streo in accessibility but my output for built in speaker is still mono. Only the left speaker is functioning and the right isnt. For the headset, both produces sounds. I cant remember I installed something that have caused this.
Is this related to the 4.4.2 version?
I also have the same exact problem!
The left speaker of my Note 10.1 is not working but the right speaker is perfectly working.
I was so worried because there was a disturbing BZZZBZBZBZBZBBZBZ sound coming from my left speaker. I washed my screen with a few drops of water and I thought some got in through the speaker that's why it isn't working properly. I am so glad to know that this is a software problem and not my fault at all.
Will formatting really solve the problem? Thanks
I have a problem I have a Samsung tab A and on of my speakers are not working the other one is sound fine and when I have headphones in its fine but when I have them out the sound out of the speaker is not on but the other speaker is fine. What should I do ?

A shot in the dark (Mic issue)

I'm no where near qualified to place input on ROM development but I did have a random thought.
Is it possible that the Mic issue with most KitKat ROMs, could be caused/fixed/related with the headset jack?
I remember hearing somewhere that random occurrences of mics not working when a headset that wasn't made for your device was used and taken out, that it may cause the device to not recognize the removal and therefore not switch back to the mic.
Like I said, im sure it's not that simple, but hey, it's a shot in the dark.

Solution to headphone/aux audio pausing/skipping

This is a cross post from the thread I found on reddit, I take no credit for this find.
The problem for this person was "I purchased some Beyedynamic DT990 Pros (low impedance ersion; 32ohm) and there is some issue with the jack. It seems to trigger the button of me pressing the microphone button, with minimal movement. It either brings up voice command or just pauses the music, even if I just turn off the screen. If I try to increase the volume it also brings up the voice command sometimes.
Just moving the phone slowly causes the music to stop (if it doesnt already when turning the screen off.
Anyone have any solutions to this? These are good headphones, they work with my pc perfectly. I will test with my ipod aswell.
I was thinking of getting a female to male jack just to see if a different connector works. But these are audiophile headphones so the quality isn't really questionable."
and the solution was
"Download the app SoundAbout. It lets you force your phone to detect the headphones correctly. My G3 was doing the exact same thing and ever since I downloaded SoundAbout around a week or so ago everything has been working fine." "What I do is put the headphones into the jack, but not all the way until it clicks in. Just put it in enough to where the phone senses them. If the phone senses them as a headset, remove the headphones (not necessary to take them completely out, just off of the sensor inside the headphone jack) and try again. Once it detects them as regular headphones you can click them in like normal."
Sorry for the poor formatting, and unable to link the reddit thread because my account lacks posts but I found this extremely helpful and hope everyone with this issue does too.

Thread is LG G3 can't deal with proper headphones-
Another method from goldswimmerbj
"I have seen that many people are having issues with the phone picking up headphones as headsets and pausing music on it's own and also causing LG voice to pop up. This issue is caused by the phone picking up headphones incorrectly.
Put the headphones in slowly until you hear 2 faint beeps. Once you hear those just continue plugging in the headphones."
Hope this solves your problems with the LG G3,
My LG G3 has a different problem I guess
Thanks for the info OP.
Mine has headset issue, but only during phone calls.
When I play music, I have no problem at all, during the phone calls, this is where the issue comes. the sound is bad, just like the phone is in a really bad reception area, however, when I unplug the headset, use the phone itself, there is no problem at all, same for the speaker.
i tried with different headset, all same result. I tried the options in the thread above, same. also, my phone detect the headsets ok, once the headset is plugged, the phone has the headset icon appeared
my phone is LG G3, 32G, Canadian Bell version.
any help would be much appreciated

All audio input seems to be broken

Crazy long story short... my phone is not allowing audio input from any source.
I first noticed it with voice control (OK Google), where my phone wasn't responding.
Then I tried manually clicking on the microphone to manually trigger it to listen... and nothing.
Then I tried making a phone call... and the person on the other side cannot hear me. I feel like I'm getting somewhere... some kind of microphone problem.
I tried the same via speakerphone (which may or may not use different microphones in the phone)... but I still cannot be heard.
Then I tried plugging in an external microphone (2 actually). Both times, I got a message on my phone indicating it was using an "external audio source" to record input... except that my audio is still not being recognized. I tested this with the built-in voice recorder on the phone.
Then I bit the bullet and did a full factory reset, thinking maybe a rogue app broke something, I dunno. Well, one full reset later... I'm in the same boat. I still cannot get the phone to accept any audio from the built-in microphone or external mic.
I've tried cleaning out the mic (even though that obviously isn't the problem because the external mic exhibits the same problem). I'm hesitant to take it to Sprint, because I can't believe it would be a hardware problem, what with mulitple audio input sources not working.
Anyone have any suggestions? I'm willing to try anything at this point. Thanks.
