I bought a LG VU II (F200K) few days ago, it was preinstalled Android 4.0.4, initially I found the microphone completely not work, neither during phone call nor audio/video recording, whereas when I use the headphone came with it everything is fine, after few time phone call testing I found the built-in mic ONLY work when I turn on the "speaker" during the phone call, could someone guide me what I can do to fix this issue? Thank you for your help!

So recently I bought an LG Optimus M from this guy on Craiglist. He used the phone for about 2 months, for basic things like calling, texting, and light web browsing. But suddenly one day the sound stopped working. I bought the phone for $30 since I want to use it as a wifi only device for music, apps, games, internet, and videos. The phone was on the default ROM with no user downloaded apps.
So when I got the phone, whenever I would adjust the ringer volume, the earpiece would start to make this weird hissing/vacuum noise. This would go on until the phone was restarted.
The speaker and mic don't work. Music and videos simply don't play any sound. Google voice search says no sound was heard. Using earphones (apple earphones with mic and remote) didn't help either, but I noticed the phone recognized when earphones were removed, by auto-pausing videos.
I thought it might be a kernel problem, so I rooted it and installed Cyanogen 7.1 (CM7). This didn't fix the problem.
After sometime though, I went to record a video. I opened it on the computer and noticed the sound recorded too o_o ! I then tested out my earphones, and well what do you know, they worked! Well, the left side was fine but the right side had really low volume. (they worked fine on other devices though). So something is weird about this phone.
After an hour the problem came back again. And I noticed something, there is a headset icon on the status bar, indicating that a headset is plugged in, yet I have nothing plugged in and no bluetooth devices connected.
Help? D: For the most part I at least want earphones to work on it ...
Issue started when flashing Passion (ICS) v5, but I have since ODIN 'ed back to stock, still broken. rooted and flashed CM7, still broken. My notification audio still works. My speaker phone during calls still works. My earpiece during calls does not work, and media audio will not play over speaker, earpiece, or bluetooth. Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Bringing back thread form the dead. I am having the same issue with my Vibrant. I bought the phone used and everything was working but now it all went out just like the OP. My earpiece does not work during calls but the speakerphone does work. Also, when using the phone for media, i.e. Youtube, the speaker does not put out any sound but during a phone call after I have turned on speakerphone Youtube media works over speakerphone. The audible touch tones and haptic feedback work during phone calls and sometimes during normal use. Notification sounds work all the time. The phone is running Eclair 2.1. I have tried resetting the phone to factory software and still no luck. Yesterday I opened the phone up and used an air can to blow out dust and it started to work but it went out again today. I am just looking to find out if this is a software issue or firmware issue? Thanks for the time and advice.
install "toggle headset2",and set the widget,you can control audio output manually
Hey All
I couldnt find a related thread so here goes
Samsung galaxy s2 i9100
android : 2.3.7
base i9100xxkl1
kernel 2.6.35.7
cyanogen 7.1.0
build gwk74
I was tinkering with the *#19xxxxx codes and probably changed something
now ,whenever i make or receive calls with either headphones (no mic) or a bluetooth headset (with mic) , the microphone doesnt seem to work at all
the microphone works fine,as i am able to record from internal mic while the headphones are plugged in
Whenever i make calls with the handset the microphone works fine
I have tried to flash a different kernel,a different mod, returned to the stock mod and kernel,still no luck
naturally it stays after multiple reboots/hard resets/factory resets
could anybody tell me where the settings for microphone volumes are kept in the firmware and how do i reset them to defaults?
Have you managed to figure this out? I actually have a Galaxy Note and posted the same question in that forum, but just like your thread no one responded either.
I have learned a few things since then, but I truly believe this is an engineering/design mistake. My handset does not recognize headphones properly, meaning headphones without the mic shuts off the handset's microphone. This should not happen. My last three phones all understood there wasn't a microphone and to keep the microphone on the handset active.
Also, I have some pictures of the different headset types and how to recognize them here:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Dial *#9072641*# and check if you reset the microphone settings.
Hi All,
(Asus_T00J Zenfone A501CG running Android KitKat 4.4.2 - Firmware: Asus_T00J_WW_user_2.22.40.54_20150527_44 )
Today morning I have received few calls.
All of a sudden my phone, stopped hearing anything. My callers cannot here my voice but I can here them.
I tried in several calls both with built-in headset and using speaker mode.
I tried inputting voice to "Google Voice Search" using both normal phone microphone and a headset's mic. But "Google Voice" cannot here anything. (Previous to this problem it has no problem hearing).
As audio input is not working even with a headset, I assume its not a problem with phone's mic (Hardware) but some software issue.
Please someone help me troubleshoot this issue.. I am not able to receive any calls.
Thanks a lot..
Restart your phone.. if Still not working
its possible that your drivers are corrupted, if you have a backup of your Stock Rom, try recovering it..
Hey guys,
yesterday I installed the 14.1-20180719-NIGHTLY-h850 version of LineAgeOS on my phone.
Everything worked fine, but then I found a bug.
WhatsApp voice mails and any other voice record doesn't have any sound except an cracky sound at the beginning, after that, theres no sound.
The strange thing is, when I record a video with any camera App, theres normal mic sound, maybe a little bit crackling.
Do you know how to fix this?
PS: If I connect a headset, I get very strange Sound in WhatsApp voice mails/records etc and no Sound in Discord.
Also WhatsApp and Snapchat (no more tested) don't record the sound with Headset mic rather the normal phone-mic.
Ok guys, after flashing it new... a few times... I got normal mic performance when no Headphones or Headsets are connected.
If so, the mic level is very, very, low.
Any ideas?
My mic doesnt work regardless if I was on stock, downgraded version, custom ROM, etc. I dont know what to do. I do have the same symptom as yours tho where when I record, there is a few pops at the beginning then just silence
I got the replacement module for the g5 and not even that fixed it. I am stumped of how to fix this issue.
EDIT: I just now found out that after taking out the motherboard, there was a red sticker covering some golden connectors, after taking that off fixed it. No idea why there was a red sticker there but please check and if it is there then take it off. itll be on the other side of the motherboard..
