HI
Ever since update to pie on s9+ the mic is bad
It has very low pickup. the recording app is soft.
When using line on video call i can barely be heard unless my mouth is on the mic.
It works fine using the earphones
Anyone had this issue?
Also i noticed their is a duplicate of bixby
e.g. bixby service
same name but different version numbers.
could bixby be muting out the mic bye having multiple instances?

Hi,
got my OP3 yesterday and already upgraded to OxygenOS 3.2.4. Works great, only issue I have is the very low microphone volume when recording WhatsApp Voicenotes, I have to turn up the volume of the speakers to the max to even understand it at all, which is a bit weird. Even when I directly talk into the microphone at the bottom of the phone besides the headphone jack, it is still very quiet.
Is there a fix for this? Anyone else experienced this? I only found a fix for the video recording microphone quality, but I don't think that that will affect WhatsApp Voicenotes, right?

+1. The OnePlus 3 has very low volume WhatsApp voice note recordings, and when you use headphones to record it's louder but there's a constant jack noise that's kinda annoying

I have the same problem when I use WhatsApp Voice Messages.
I have the same problem too with Oxygen 3.2.6 .
If somebody can help, I'll appreciate it A LOT. It's being annoying deal with that issue.
It happens to me too. I'm on CM13
Has anyone else noticed that while you're on a phone call. If you place the caller on speakerphone... The callers voice sounds at what you might expect to be 30%-50% of the volume (even after raising speakerphone volume to 100%), the callers voice volume on speakerphone just doesn't sound loud at all, not even at 100% volume.
Is there a fix for this?
Is Google aware?
If anyone can share their thoughts about this, please do.
Had this exact same thought. Haven't yet tested on the November update.

It's the same on Nov. I rooted and installed Viper. Enabled xLoud on Phone Speaker and it's better. Can't understand why Google didn't enable both speakers for phone calls, like they did for media.
It's probably because only the bottom speaker is firing so it's literally half the volume you would expect.

I have the same problem with volume on speaker phone calls. I don't like the idea of a new driver (Viper) that requires root.
Are there any other solutions?
Bump for an issue I've noticed now that i use the speakerphone
After I updated to Android 10, a few of my friends on Discord said that they can barely hear me. I made sure my mic was as sensitive as possible in Discord and I barely saw the audio meter go up. Used an app to record my voice and noticed how quiet it is. I've tested this on both PixelDust and stock, and the microphone problem was still there. I downgraded to Pie for a bit and noticed that my mic was normal again, but when I updated back to 10, my mic was insanely quiet again. Is there any way to change your microphone volume in Android?
I can't say about Discord but make sure you have not fallen victim to the infamous microphone issue which plagued the OG Pixels widely, myself included.
It seems that Android 10 is forcing my mic to use the earpiece mic instead of the speaker mic in every app by default now.
Edit: After further testing, plugging in any headset won't change the mic input either. It's stuck on the earpiece mic.
Samsung s9 exynos
After update the ui2.5 my mic isn't working properly when i receive the call the other person don't hear my voice until i put it on the speaker and once mic started then i can put the speaker off.
But when i make the call the mic works properly. I don't need to put the call on speaker.
I also had this same issue, thought something was wrong with my phone. I fixed mine by flashing latest rom through odin.
Dear, after some tests it seems properly working removing bixby features: vocal activation, automatic listening, use with locked smartphone and other features letting bixby automatic activation. After different incoming calls it seems properly working. Please let me know your experience.
I have the exact same issue with my S9 over the last few months or so. Does anyone know what caused it or a less intrusive fix (other than reflashing stock OS)?
Microphone works just fine in recordings app but during calls, the sound is very dim and unclear
People complain that the sound is unclear so I recorded a test call using Automatic Call Recorder app and found that the sound was very dim
but it is perfectly fine in stock recorder app
Is this software issue? How to fix it?
PS I used stock rom and had recently factory reset the phone
Have you tried cleaning the small microphone at the bottom of your phone? It's likely blocked by some dust. There is another microphone at your phone which is problem used for voice recordings, hence the difference in sound
