Hi ALL!
It seems we all have a problem with our buggy Optimus One. The problem is that Skype (doesn't matter which version you use) always uses loud speaker and there is no way to switch it to a regular speaker (no matter if you try to click corresponding button). I tried the exact version of Skype (1.0.3) on my friend's Nexus One - works perfect, as it should be. So LG programmers did us dirt again (as with endcall function http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929801).
So can anyone fix that buggs? Or maybe give an advice where to dig to hunt that buggs?
Thanks for spending time for reading this.

Hi guys, I've had my Hero about a year now. The other day, all of a sudden my speaker seemed to stop working. I thought, oh great, it's a hardware bust. I then tried a call and the sound came out fine. That is the only sound working. Everything works with my earphones plugged in. Any advice?
Any ideas guys, I'm pretty desperate here -_-
It could be something wrong with your media volume? I know when you plug in headphones there is a different volume setting? Try a sound volume manager like audio manager .. there is different
Does the problem replicate itself on different roms. etc.. also what rom are you using.
sorry, I know this is basic
Thankyou for the reply man .
Unfortunately I know it is not down to a volume problem because also the ringer volume does not make any sounds.
I am currently on an ancient Floyo ROM as I haven't been able to flash over the last few months. I'm currently waiting for a Froyo Sense with working camera or a reasonably stable GingerBread ROM.
Did you test a handsfree calling? Try making a call and enabling mobile speaker (there should be an option pressing menu button while you are calling).
HTC Hero, as many mobile phones, has two different speakers, one in the back used to play music and loud sounds, and another one on the front to make calls. I think your back speaker is not working and that's why you can't hear anything except voice when you call.

Thankyou, I did not know there were two different speakers, although I suppose it makes sense when you think about it!
Tried what you said and my back speaker is definitely knackered - may have just persuaded myself to get a Z >_>
cheers
Alright, so does anyone remember those older LG phones (I think they were LG) with the full qwerty keyboards, and whenever you texted someone, each letter on the keyboard made a seperate soft little piano note. It was strangely amusing a few years back hearing friends texting on their phones and it almost made a song haha.
I've been looking for any ideas on how to do this, I already understand going under /system/media/audio/ui to change the keypress noise for all keys. but does anyone know of a way to make a seperate little note for each key?
Any ideas are welcome.
bump! I still have no idea!
I have recently purchased a Lenovo IdeaTab A2109-F which I was quite happy with, since this was the first time I have used an android tablet as I am coming from iOS background.Before I bought the tablet, I read that id had double microphone in order to make voice calls such as Skype clearer. Now , at first it seemed all good and I had people saying that the audio being received is clear and crisp on the other end of the call.
However after 2-3 mins in a call (every call) the microphone then goes really weird and audio being received from it becomes mumbled until it completely degrades where it seems like just random noises, sometimes it even goes all quiet. What I have noticed however , if I blow into the microphone it then goes all good again.
At first I thought it was a Skype app issue and so I downloaded a microphone voice recorder (memo recording sort of app) and same observations were made where voice being recorded completely degrades within 3 minutes of the recording, where blowing into the microphone temporary fixes the problem until it happens again after a minute or so.
Now I am lost here , I really like the tablet and I really doubt it's a hardware issue for some reason. I have a suspicion that something is either upping/lowering the sensitivity of the microphone and where blowing into the microphone seems to then readjust it.
I really hope somebody could help me out, maybe there is an app that allows to change microphone settings , or maybe something else that I could try out.
Thanks for your time! :good:
P.S Android Version: 4.1.1 and latest Skype app. I also tried upgrading the firmware, same problem was observed.
I still have the same issue on my Lenovo A2109. Skype, Line or any internet call, voice degrades within 8 - 10 mts and I had to end the call and re-do the call again. VERY ANNOYING... I thought it was just my tablet. I didn't try the trick of blowing into the microphone. Thanks for the tip. Did you get a solution yet? I thought upgrading would help. But thanks for confirming.

I have posted it 2 months ago on "apps and software" and got nothing. So I'm trying again here.
Hello everyone!
What I'm looking to do is really simple, a LOT of people are interested in these feature, however, no one has a clear solution.
There has been a lot of post about this subject but they are most old post and there's nothing help full.
Here is the problem - whenever I'm talking over the phone, I can play any music I like and I can hear it perfectly, but the other side cant hear anything! even if ill let the music play using the phone speaker - the other side is silent (witch is strange cause when the speaker play, the mic should transfer the sound and shouldn't "care" who is making it).
So after a lot of searching for apps and different ways, I found out something interesting.. If I make the call using an VOIP (skype, viber and so on) and Ill play music at the same time - THE OTHER SIDE CAN HEAR IT PERFECTLY!!! witch means the phone is fully capable of doing it.
What is going wrong when I'm using the cellular network instead of VOIP? is there a way around it?
Ive noticed some people don't get WHY would I want to do it.. well, I'm working using my phone (sales) and using the exact same pitch. I would like to be super lazy and play a recorded version of me, and when its done, be able to just keep talking to the person without him being able to notice the difference.
Since I'm doing it for work, I cant use VOIP for regular calling.
I'm using Nexus 4, chroma rom (lollipop)
ANY help at all will be appreciated
Something to think about..
Since I didn't found any software to do it (yet), I'm experimenting with a different direction.
I currently use a PC headphones with a simple Y adapter from eBay. So I'm thinking "all I need is another microphone. One for the talking, another to sit between speakers that will play the sound for the caller.
I've gone through eBay again, this is a tough one to find cause I need 'audio input' splitter and most splitters are 'audio output'.
If you guys know something about it, please share.
Hello
I'd like to request an xposed module for picking the microphone source. Since the main microphone of my Sony Z1 Compact is broken, but my secondary mic is working fine: is this possible? I am not a programmer, but this seems to help:
http: //developer.android. com/reference/android/media/MediaRecorder.AudioSource.html
I would like to pick the main microphone for calls/skype/whatsapp-calls etc.
Please let me know if this is possible. Thanks!
(I'm running Stock-Rom 14.6.A.1.216 with root access)
I'am looking for the same thing, but i have an S3 International. My main mic (Builtin_mic) is broken but the second one (camera mic) works well. I'm looking to find something in audio_policy.conf but i'm not sure i'm searching in the right place. Please help us!

If someone knows where to change it manually, this would be helpful as well. No need for an Xposed-Module, but I thought it would make things easier
I already asked to some devs but unfortunatly they all have no free times to do this. There is an app called "SoundAbout" that allow to change the default output settings (earpiece, speaker, bluetooth etc.) It would be awsome if could exist an app that allow to change the input microphone like "Hi-q mp3 recorder" that allow to record from the back mic too, but only inapp, without changing settings to e intere phone.
I'm with you guys.. bump for this request
No ideas? Would be a huge present for me, since I wouldn't need to buy a new phone :angel:
Doesn't even have to be an Xposed Module.
BUMP
I knew a way but I forgotten.
damn.
need It badly
Hi, have you find some way to do it ?
My Camcorder sound is horrible, but when I select MIC source, audio is way better for audio input. But I don't find too how to set MIC as default for all-apps...
Thanks for any help
Anyone found a solution yet? Asking for my Motivation X 2014.
