The phone was bought new in May and unlocked in June because it's in another country. It came with Android preinstalled from T-Mobile.
The Wi Fi doesn't work, but that's a hardware problem and HTC won't fix it under warranty because the phone was unlocked. NOt a big deal, and not the problem I'm writing about.
Last night the battery died. Today, after charging the battery, the speaker and microphone don't work.
Anyone I call cannot hear me. There is no sound at all on the other phone. No static, Nothing! It's like putting your turned off phone to your ear.
And it is the same when they talk. I can't hear anything.
I took the battery out several times and that didn't help
Did a hard reset and that didn't help either. The phone was working fine until the battery died
does anyone know how to fix this problem?
Same problem
I have the same problem. I'm looking for a solution, otherwise I'll need to send it back. Did you ever find a fix? #frustrating

My HTC Amaze is almost doing the exact opposite. When I make or receive calls, I cannot hear people. They can hear me, but unless I put it on speakerphone, I am SOL. It works with bluetooth in my car just fine but it is a little aggravating to have to keep a call on speaker. Anyone else have this problem? I have done a hard reset, I called TMobile...they said they were unable to help. I have the insurance, but only for lost or damaged. As it was explained to me...TMobile cannot help me in regard to phone but...if I drop it in the toilet or run over it...the php insurance will cover it (with the 150 deductible) When I signed up for the insurance it was explained to me that it was like an extended warranty. However when I called tech support, I was informed that it was not... Help please

Hi,
I took my O2 atom exec to get the plastic housing replaced.
I took it to a phone repair shop to do, and they did it, but then they said the microphone was faulty and wanted an extra $95 to fix this.
The phone was working perfectly beforehand, and now I am left with a phone where the mic doesnt work properly. I can hear calls ok, but just cant speak back. I found if I use the handsfree/loudspeaker function the mic works.
Does anyone know what the problem could be, and would it be an easy fix?
I shouldn't of brought it to those guys... What can you do though.
Any help would be appreciated. The rest of the phone itself seems to be working fine.
It doesn't make sense.
I can talk fine when its on loudspeaker function but when its off then the caller can't hear me talk.
I can record using the mic.
I wonder if it's a software thing, and whether doing a hard reset might be worth a try? Thoughts guys?
Edit: Ok it doesn't look like software issue as I have just done a hard reset and still the same issue. SO it looks like some kind of hardware issue - Mic/Motherboard.
Noone has heard of this problem before...?
Hardware related bug, hoping to bypass it completely.
Started happening about 2 months ago.
problem: When headphones/bluetooth are not connected, my microphone on the phone will not work. When either are connected, both the headphone/bluetooth microphone are working at the same time. I've been using bluetooth to place calls this entire time, Person on the other end gets a constant echo, if I cover up the phone microphone the echo stops(and they only hear what comes from the bluetooth headset).
I've flashed multiple roms, it seems to me like this is hardware related, but for the life of me I can't figure out how this seems to have got reversed in functionality (microphone on the phone should mute when headset is attached, not unmute)
Anyways, I'm perfectly fine using bluetooth, I never use my microphone on my phone for voice searches (I'm a southerner, it just doesn't work... yall.) i also never record videos. So, anyone know how I can keep the phone microphone muted full time?
That sucks
The same thing happened to my fiance's eris. I tried everything i could think of... its a hardware issue. She also had a problem with her track ball at the same time, it would not scroll down, only up left and right. She ended up getting a new phone, because nothing else worked. Sorry for your luck. Let me know if you find a fix.

Thanks for the response. I'm 100% sure its a hardware problem. If I cant figure out a way to permanently mute the onboard microphone im going to buy a dead eris and just replace the little board with the usbport/microphone. If that doesnt fix it, I will see if it will boot up with that board removed completely. (have a battery only charger already.)
But before I do either, I would love it if one of the genius' around here (no disrespect, some smart folks on these forums) responded with a way to permanently mute it.
10 day bump in hopes that someone knows something that didnt see it. Wont do it again. *crosses fingers*
Hi
Me and my Mom both have Lumia's.
When I'm talking, no one is complaining about my outgoing call quality - they hear me very well, but my Mom is getting very poor call quality(but not always). I can hear her like she has mouth in plastic glass. It's really strange. We were playing around with our phones and sim cards (different providers), to check if it's problem with phone, but with my card it worked good on both phones, also audio loopback in diagnostic is good. Next we exchange our sim's and I give my phone to Mom, so we can check how it will be if she phone me with one and another from hospital (because my sister is there), and... both gave me bad audio quality, but here is the best part, when she hand the phone to my sister it went to very good quality as normal. It blow's my mind. I don't know what is going on.
Anyone have some ideas what can make it?
I forgot to add, that my Mom's signal is a little bit weaker on this phone, but even with 3 straps it should be good.
And with her old k800i signal and audio call quality was better...
Do you not cover the microphone?Lumia has two,the main is on the left lower grille..second is under the led..
I think it's not the problem, my Mom use this cover that is with Lumia, and it would be hard to cover microphone, but I will check it. And I think that second microphone is only for camera/conference talk?
But you can cover it with your hand..the second microphone is for the interference..
OK
So I find my problem similar to this:
http://discussions.europe.nokia.com...blem-sounds-like-a-speaker-phone/td-p/1310137
And Mom said, that I have this problem too (but not too often). I will just try to replace both phones.
Btw. I found my Phone to make clicking noise while pushing to the right side of the screen...

Same problem.
Very low volume when making phone calls and recording video.
Hardreset did not help.
Yesterday, I did send the phone back for repair and i'm alread missing my lumia 800 :crying:
After two months after getting this fixed, this problem has re appeared. Its very frustrating, ok going to have to take it to the Nokia care centre again, last time it was fixed the guy said it was a "loose wire" and he fixed it in a day. This time I will make sure it gets sent to Nokia for repair, and not repaired but some guy who probably has no idea what he is doing.

Take some pictures of your phone before hand, when I got my phone back form Nokia Care it was all scratched i wasn't happy so there getting me a new one.
I've had my DNA for a full day, and I had a problem with the receiver. When I tried to make a call, I can see on the screen that it was placed and connected...but I couldn't hear anything. Not through the receiver or the speaker phone. This happened when I make a call or received a call. Has anybody else experience this problem with the DNA or any other HTC devices? I don't want to factory rest (which fixed the problem) my phone once a day just to use it.

I would take it back. Verizon offers 14 day returns on brand new phones.
I actually returned mine because of a microphone defection. No one could hear me when I called them. They heard my voice going in and out constantly.
The replacement, is absolutely perfect. So glad that I did it.
Holla fellows, on my LG G5 I am facing a very bizarre issue. When I activate my speakers my microphone stops working. when on earpiece they work like a charm. Also microphone didn't work when used my other applications like skype or hangout, but while using earpiece they are perfectly fine. Anyone else got this issue on G5 or anyother device ? Any suggestion or advice is greatly appreciated.
I'm having the same issue. Literally just got the phone 4 days ago. Pretty happy about it. Have you reset?

Yes, I tried resetting via backup and restore under settings menu
Reset mine and thought about the mic being housed in the battery holder bottom part. Why not take it out and clean connections....mic works great now. Dunno if from reset or alcohol cleaning connections. Give it a shot.
Same here i purchased the phone on 5-5-16 it will reboot on its own almost everyday till 5-19-16 when it completly just gave up and wouldn't turn on. So i went to tmobile and they replaced it for a new one. But now the replacement gave up yesterday 5-28-16. It has managed to turned on once but the device was too hot that i turned it off to cool it down and it wont turn on anymore. Sucks that is long weekend and i wont be getting s replacement soon.
I too am having this issue, however mine has one other weird glitch. If i put the phone on speakerphone and talk into th phone like normal (phone up to my ear) i can hear myself in the phones speaker faintly and the mute button does no work at all. Works fine on normal mode but not on speakerphone. To me this is a software issue vs hardware issue, I bought the phone second hand so I dont really have any warranty. Anyone have anything to offer up to try? Ive tried a different battery module base and no luck, same issues. Its almost like the phone needs a entire reflash done to it. Other then this issue the phone rocks.
The phone is a Canadian H831 model.
I had similar issue with older device. Read on some thread and they suggest disable Google now. It worked for that device. I am not sure if it will for you guys?

Thanks for the link @marac1993 will check
I had the same problem. It turned out to be a "hardware" thing. There are two microphones, one at the bottom of the phone which works when on earpiece, and the second one on the top of the phone (above earpiece) which works when on speaker mode. I cleaned the first one several times without noticing there is a second one on the top. It turned out that the second microphone was blocked by some dirt. I cleaned it and now it works like a harm when on speaker mode.
