Mic problem and WhatsApp poor audio quality due to Android 10? ? - Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I use to send WhatsApp audio messages since a couple of days, and the person which received it tell me that my audio file volume is very low.
I try to send simultaneously an message through WhatsApp with 2 phones and indeed, with the other volume is correct, even wonderful when I compare ?
When I listen a audio message from WhatsApp, into WhatsApp I heard some noise "cryp cryp" like a vynil LP from 1950 ?
But when I found this audio voice mail, an Opus extension, the message is clear.
Some messages talk about these problems and claims that is a update problem since Android 10.
I don't know if my sent audio file was some bad before, but I remember that the file received was better.
Do you know lf Nokia is working about these problems?
Any alternative exists to correct that?
Many thanks.
Abou Ilyès

WhatsApp Voicenotes - Microphone very quiet

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?

Recording/Microphone Issue

Hello Guys,
I bought Nokia 8.1 yesterday, the phone is excellent in nearly every aspect, but two hours ago I faced a little issue.
I sent a friend 3 voice notes on WhatsApp, they responded that the first half of the first note is not clear, I played it and for about 30 secs (out of 1:32) there was nothing recorded but noise, the rest of this note and the other two were good.
After noticing that, I recorded too many notes and records (using different social apps like telegram, messenger and WhatsApp itself) with no issue. I also made some phone calls, and recorded videos and voice records perfectly.
I am just asking if anybody else has faced a similar issue, till now I think (and hope) it is just a software issue in WhatsApp. So, does anybody have an idea about such issue?
Thanks in advance
I'm facing a similar issue except I'm breaking up more and more as the conversation continues up to the point they can barely make out what I'm saying. If I call someone with Whatsapp it seems to be better.
Hello,
In nokia 8.1, I m facing distorted sound output while recording to smule app or other audio audio recording app while using external wired headset. Please guide what to do.

Question Low voice messages volume

hey guys!
is it just me or is the sound of voice messages played on the device really low compared to how the generell sound volume of media is? for example if i play voice msgs from my people i need to crank up the volume just to be blasted when listening to a youtube clip after that.
also: my voice messages seem to be quite low in volume too. this is in whatsapp and telegram too. i am speaking directly "to the screen" btw.
last but not least: my speed up button in whatsapp audios disappeared. does someone know this issue?
thanks so much!

Question Low microphone volume

Anyone else having this occur? I'm sending voice clips on fb messenger and the volume is insanely low, even on playback.

It is the same on Pixel 6 too. To me it sounds like all of the sound messages somehow down-sampled to some terrible sample rate and the gain is very low true. If you record with the regular sound recorder and send the recorded audio on the receiving side sounds perfect. Only the messages which are recorded with WhatsApp, messenger, Signal etc they're sounding really terrible.

It may be just on stock. I'm curious if anyone on a custom ROM has this issue.
The problem still present on SQ1D.220205.003 (February) update (unfortunately)
How is that possible to have such a problem with one of the main feature of the device that long without fix? I mean this isn't just a 'cosmetic' issue. Is there anyone here who can compare the quality of the audio messages on stock and custom ROM?
Same problem here.Low microphone volume on whatsapp messages.On the recorder app its good .....
I have added my measurements here:
Bad Microphone quality speech intelligibility in messaging apps eg WhatsApp, Duo, Telegram
Hello Since I have my Pixel 6 all of my messaging partners (WhatsApp, Duo, Signal, Telegram etc) are telling me audio problems including bad quality, low volume, and not last poor speech intelligibility. The problem happens in live call/video...

(As my device is Pixel 6 and not Pro, I had to open a new topic in the Pixel 6 forum, but the problem is identical)
