Really low MIC volume - LG K10 Questions & Answers

Hi there!
I don't think anyone else addressed the issue yet.
The problem occurs when I'm using any custom ROM - it's there both on Lineage and RR. (that's why I don't really know if it's the right section to post this on).
All I'm asking - is there any way to increase the mic volume, preferably systemless? Magisk's Audio Mic Fix doesn't seem to work and I don't think I want to tamper with system/etc/mixer_paths.xml by myself.
Thanks in advance
@edit: Just checked it - mixer_paths.xml in stock and in RR rom are identical

low speaker volume on cyanogen roms

OK...so I'm not sure if I'm the only one experiencing this problem or not, but every cm ROM I have installed the speaker call volume is obnoxiously low...if I'm on a stock lollipop or stock marshmallow ROM whether its modded or not the volume is fine but on a cm ROM it sucks...its only the voice call speaker volume that is low. The bluetooth, media volume, etc... is fine. I have tried increasing the voice call speaker volume through the mixer paths XML file via es file explorer and it only gets distorted and I have tried many ways...turning it down from 66 to 64 (that makes it sound lower), turning it up from 66 to 68, 70 (that makes it sound distorted). Anyway is this a normal issue for cm ROMs for the speaker call volume to sound low or is there some kind of work around to enhance the volume...thanks
Friend, that sounds like it could be a modem issue. I've used CM-based ROMs for years and haven't had this issue. Currently on vanilla CM and my call/speaker volume is great (D850 variant).
Strange...well I don't reflash bootstacks if I'm already on the correct one but y would everything else work except speakerphone...should I try a modem all by itself? I'm on vs985 variant running resurrection remix (latest build)

Yes. Find a modem for your device and flash it through recovery. It's possible the solution could be that quick and easy. I have no idea why one thing would work and not the other, but personally I would start with the modem.
CM Roms ... The kernels have fauxsound support in kernel management... Have you tried adjusting those settings?
I have not but somebody has told me that when I put them on speakerphone they can hear themselves echoing back when they talk...I flashed to a stock based rom and they no longer hear the echo...I reflashed a custom Rom and now they hear the echo again...so...I flashed a couple more cm aosp rims and they hear the echo on those roms to...is the echo curse normal on custom aosp roms or is there something I'm missing???

Audio lowerings itself

Hey guys, I've been having a problem with the N5X since I bought it. First thing I did when I bought it was to root it and change the ROM, of course. I installed BlissROM (don't remember which build) and ARISE Mod but everytime when I started playing a song (or when someone called me) the audio always started playing loud (as it should) but after a second or two it would lower itself (not the volume steps, just the speaker sound). At first I thought it was a problem with the ARISE mod so I tried without it but the sound was terrible, so I tried changing ROMs and I found that Resurrection Remix with Arise works without problems (the audio works perfectly). But now I've got the same problem if I try to update the ROM (I'm using 20160616 build) the audio starts lowering itself again and I'm stuck with Android 6.0.1 because of it. Can somebody tell me what is causing the problem so I can fix it ? I tried different ROMs, different kernels and different versions of ARISE without luck and I'm out of ideas. Sorry for the long post and thanks in advance
Umm, is there a compatibility chart with ROMs for ARISE? I use something different and that's Viper4Android that works slick with all Android M ROMs.
Suspect an issue with ARISE.

Yup, I tried V4A without ARISE, no luck.
Try going to TWRP Advanced and fix se Linux contents which does se Linux enforcing which will be needed for some mods.

[Magisk] Mic low volume fix - custom roms

This is a fairly simple module that increases the mic volume for custom roms. Since a couple of months, mic volume became so low (I guess it happened after flex used xiaomi's Jan blobs in los16). This module just edits mixer_path_mtp file and raises the volume a bit. I've been using it for a month and no one complains about my low volume anymore.
This is not tested and will not probably work in stock rom since I remember that mixer_path file in stock is named something else and I don't remember it.
You may send me any mixer_path file in/vendor/etc/ and I will try to do the same edits and it would work.
Repo:
https://github.com/ahmedkassem56/tissot-mic-fix
Works perfectly (Revenge OS).
Thanks.

This is a magisk module that you should flash using magisk manager. AFAIK, Most custom roms have fixed the issue and added similar changes so I don't think this is necessary anymore.

Actually, it is necessary. I am having problems with my mic in my Samsung galaxy s6 with the unofficial resurrection remix os. Know any fix other than this? It didn't work for me, sadly.

Oh, this module is made for xiaomi mi a1 (tissot) and most probably your device will not boot or will boot with missed up sound configuration.

[FIX] [AOSP] Improve audio recording in video and calls

After devs changed fluencetype to fluence in build.prop for low incall volume, noise cancellation is so agressive. This fix solve distortion that you can find in your recordings.
- Tested in firmware 9.5.30
- Tested in Pixel Experience CAF and Vortex
Instructions:
- Download NoiseSuppresionMod.zip
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash NoiseSuppresionMod.zip
- Reboot to system
It MAYBE works in MIUI.
If devs want to fix it in their ROMs, they need to replace audio_platform_info and mixer_paths in /vendor/etc
Thanks to @Zile995 . He solved it in mido and helped me to do it in lavender.
Also, thanks to @letsmakecakes. He helped me to make flashable zip.

whats this for?
Wish I had this a couple of weeks ago when I was at Primavera Sound festival! All the audio of the videos i recorded was terrible :/
Anyway, can anyone confirm this works on stock (rooted) MIUI? Thanks!
I flashed it but have yet to test it. Before flashing this I made a phone call and I could barely hear the person on the phone. That's odd because my hearing is amazing.
Thanks for the amazing work!! Nothing try in miui stock?

Hello to all,
Thank you for your work.
Someone knows if on Lineage Rom it works this patch?
Thank you in advance.
Thanks for the mod, it's working on Lineage but the recorded audio is quite low in terms of volume.
If it could be possible to increase it a little bit at least it would be perfect, thanks again!
Hello, i got some questions about this patch:
1. Do i need to root my device to apply it (flash it)?
2. Someone already tried on a Stock ROM with MIUI?
3. Sorry for asking this but, can someone explain thoroughly the process for applying this kind of fixes/patches?
Thank you friends.

Not necessarily, but you have to unlock it in order to have a custom recovery
2. Someone already tried on a Stock ROM with MIUI?
Not that I know of
3. Sorry for asking this but, can someone explain thoroughly the process for applying this kind of fixes/patches?
It's in the OP, as I already said you must have a custom recovery which means unlocked bootloader
Thank you friends.

@danielh1402 could make the previous file available, named lavender-aosp-audio-fix.zip This new file didn't work, but the old one worked. thank you!
Which exact changes were made on the mixer_paths and audio_platform_info files?
I'm trying to fix a similar audio issue on my Mi 9 SE, if you could tell me the changes it may help me a lot.
Thanks.

On Pixel Experience Official this is stoping the video (and sometimes closing the camera) while recording. How do i do to uninstall it?
On Pixel Experience doesn't work, the recorded audio is still awful. And mostly it stops the video recording.
Yesterday I was watching a video recorded with the smartphone and I noticed that the microphones are very sensitive.. maybe they're simply bad adjusted and all we need to do is to lower the gain a little bit.. I don't know. Still hoping for a V2 for this mod.
Tried on Havoc OS. Everything became much worse after flashing this "improvement", nobody could make out what I was saying.
As factory reset did not work and there is no option to uninstall the mod I had to do flashing of a new os with dalvik, cashe and data wiping.
So be aware!
Thanks! This mod work fine in Lineage OS 16 for Redmi Note 6 Pro. The mic volume was very low. Now is great.
Not working in Havoc 3.4. Made the situation worse. No option to uninstall it.
Doing reinstall of entire ROM now.

xt-1922-9 no sound from speaker, tried all custom rom and cannot flash stock rom, HELP PLEASE!

I tried all custom roms possible and no one have sound, only with earphones.
I'm pretty sure it's note mo phone defective because was working before and didnt drop on the floor.
Any help would be immensely appreciated.
Thanks.
I have the same phone and have discovered the same problem after flashing any of the Android 11 custom ROM. No sound from speaker/ringer/media (except headphone jack). I found one suggested solution here, the last reply to the AOSPK ROM thread. The solution was to place 4 files into vendor/etc. I tried that and sure enough I got sound back with those ROMs but it broke the phone call function, couldn't make calls, dialers just ended call as soon as I tried to connect. Maybe this will work for someone else. Maybe someone else has a better solution. I'll try just replacing one file at a time and see if I can figure it out. If you find a solution let us know.

Oh and the easiest way to get back to stock is to use the Motorola Rescue assistant tool here. Just put your phone into bootloader mode and the Motorola tool will detect the phone, download the latest stock firmware and restore the phone.
Okay, I found the fix. From stock I installed AOSPExtended ROM from the Moto G6 Play forum. Initially everything seemed to work but no audio.
The fix reported in my last post, linked to the Telegram group was:
"For sound, add these 4 files to vendor/etc"
mixer_paths.xml
audio_platform_info.xml
audio_platform_info_jeter_p0.xml
mixer_paths_jeter_p0.xml
"
Copying all 4 files caused audio to work but cell calling broke.
Copy only the first 2 files without 'jeter_p0' in the name and audio was fixed and nothing else broke. Happy now. I assume this will fix the same problem with all the Android 11 roms I installed that caused this problem.

I'm a n00b so I hope you can please excuse my ignorance but how did you copy the files to that folder? And how did you get the files from the source? Also does it fix the rotation? as I have a rotation problem as well
OK its within TWRP didn't know that, file manager
