Mic problem? - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

At first this started a few weeks ago. I was on LOS then. Now I've switched different roms and they all got same problem. My mic will stop working after random time. It works normally after reboot but then it just stop working. First noticed this on the calls as I couldn't here anything and neither the other one who called me.
Tried to record voice message on whatsapp and the record was full of silence. Same thing on the video recording. No voice, but works normally after reboot.
So what could cause this as its not rom related. I've tried LOS and now I'm on OOS and the problem remains. And I think it's not a physical issue as it works right after reboot. I'm confused here.
I'm on 4.1.6 firmware and currently on Latest OOS with Bova launcher. No exposed or any other tricks. Same problem with latest Los.

[Q] Mic not working after lcd change

Hello everyone.
I broke a display on my Xperia S some time ago. Yesterday, I got a new display with frame. So I changed it, and it's fine now, but my MIC is not working anymore. I connected everything accordingly, at least I think so. When I try to record sound, I can't hear voice, just rustling. I tried several times to disconnect and connect everything, but the problem persists. Everything else is working fine, as far as I tried it. ROM is stock Jelly Bean.
Any solutions?

Help!!! Media keep pausing randomly.

So every time I use apps such as YouTube or twitch, they will pause at random. I've got the US version of the phone and I am running cuocos latest 11S Rom but I've also tried cm12.1 v4 by betahydri and the same problem occurs. I am 100% sure it's not my internet connection. Its very strange because I believe I didn't have this issue when I first got the phone. I have also noticed that when I am taking a video the phone will sometimes stop recording by its self. It seems like the phone hangs and resets the apps I am using(?) Anyone can help? Very disappointed :/

Intermittent WiFi and dead sensors!

Hi, I have nexus 2013 with Android 6.0.1, since this update and issue came all along and I don't know why!
My WiFi, is intermittent, it disconnects and reconnects all the time
All my other sensors are not working anymore, like auto rotation and gyro
screen sometimes is not being responsive, unless I turn it off couple of times
is it a software issue or my unit is dud? it used to work perfectly for couple of years though.
Yup same here!
Ditto on the rotation working intermittently. Works for a minute after restarting then stops working until I reboot. My wifi is solid though.
I am having the exact same issues as OP, doesn't matter which rom/stock.

I'm in the same situation but I'm not using stock rom. I'm using a custom RR Nougat Rom for almost 2 years, everything was working nice until this happened. WIFI either stops entirely stops working or works intermittently, and auto rotate doesn't work. I downloaded a sensors app from play store to see if they were actually working or not, to my surprise it says no sensors detected. I panicked and did a hard reset, and then it stucks at bootloop (can't get past the four dots, may be the ROM can't find sensors). Flashed countless custom ROMS, stock rom (6.1, 5.0), but still no dice. But then when I was about to give up, I thought I would give the stock rom 4.3 a final try and magically, my nexus successfully boots up with all the sensors working perfectly. Then I re flashed the custom rom back to my device in which all the sensors are working fine (ORIENTATION, GYRO...).
So may be go back to STOCK ROM 4.3 and then see if the problem persists. I see a lot of 6.0 people are facing these issues.
Good luck!

OnePlus 3 hangs and reboots whenever any app tries to use the mic

I have been using Cypher OS with elemental x kernel, in my OnePlus 3.
Recently tried the AKT for battery life. Zhana Profile. And battery life was amazing.
But before few days (idk if this is related to the tweaks), my phone started hanging and reboots whenever I call someone. Then I noticed that the phone hangs and reboots whenever any app tries to use the mic (for example, Google Assistant, WhatsApp voice message, any other app)
I tried changing the ROM, to Paranoid Android. First few minutes, phone works fine along with the mic. And then, the problem starts again.
I tried flashing stock ROM with stock recovery. Again, for the first few minutes, everything goes fine and the problem starts again.
I searched on this, and guess no one has been facing this issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Did you do a full clean install while switching roms en such. And perhaps proper firmware? These issues are not caused by AKT. Have you tried the unbrick tool? If that doesn't help then this really sounds like a hardware problem.

No audio with LineageOS 14.1

Hi all,
I have been using LineageOS 14.1 on my Moto G5 for the past year without any issues. However, of late, I am having problems with the audio. I can't figure out what is happening or why it is happening. What has happened is that the phone speaker is not working at all. No matter what I do, whether it is taking a call, listening to media files, or playing videos on YT or in the browser, I cannot hear anything at all. I can hear the audio if I plug in a headset. I have never had this problem before and then it suddenly popped up a few weeks ago. Thinking it was a major problem and wanting to upgrade, I wiped the ROM and installed LOS 15.1. That got the speaker working but it was giving me other issues so I went back to 14.1 about two weeks back. The speaker was working fine until today when it has died yet again. I have tried restarting but it hasn't fixed the issue. Is this a know bug? Is there any standard way of dealing with the issue? After the last time I needed to reimage my phone, I have been taking regular backups so I can do yet another reimaging and reinstall everything but I really don't want to do that. Please help.
Update: I did a factory reset, did a fresh reinstall of OS 14.1 but still no sound Please help!

Does the sound work with the stock Nougat/Oreo?

Hey,
I have never used the phone with the stock ROM. I bought it over a year ago and immediately installed 14.1. I can tell you the speaker was working both on the stock ROM out of the box and on 14.1 as well. It ran perfectly fine till a month ago when the speaker stopped working out of the blue. I did a factory reset and installed 15.1 and the speaker started working again. Then I went back to 14.1 a week later as mentioned. The speaker was working fine till yesterday when it conked out again. After that, I did a factory reset and reinstalled 14.1 which didn't fix it.
Sorry if I'm repeating myself too much, I'm just trying to give a clear timeline of events. Right now, I am using the phone with my handsfree. Everything other than the speaker is working. I can make calls and listen to media on my headset, just not on the speaker.
If you need me to run any diagnostics or terminal commands for testing, let me know. I would very much like to resolve this without another reinstall if possible.
Second update - I was so sure this was a software issue that I didn't even bother to check the hardware. Turns out the G5 has a contact problem with the speaker which has to be fixed by squeezing the top half of the phone to get it to make better contact. I did that and problem solved. Consider this thread closed.
