Hi all,
Since yesterday my phone no longer lets me hear the other speaker. They hear me, but that's it.
All other services are working fine (data, SMS, ...)
When I use a headphone it's working fine, same when using the external speaker but the ear piece in the screen produces nothing.
I thought it was due to a software failure , so I reverted back to the original ROM from SE (2.1), but the problem remains.
Oh, it's not the in-call sound, I checked and it is at maximum volume.
Anyone know if there is on-board system diagnostics which can detect hardware failure ?
Anyone else experienced the same problem and found a solution ? Been looking but so far nothing.
Currently back at MiniCM7Pro V21 Rom.
Thanks for any feedback
Please head over to your device forum (u20i, xperia x10 mini). Here you are in the xperia mini pro sk17 forum

Sounds like you already did all the diagnostics you need. It's not the software, because on the handsfree speaker and headphones the calls just work fine, and on different ROMS too, so it must be the internal earspeaker.

Hi! I purchased SE mini Pro (sk17i) and confronted with difficulties of using VoIP. As you know our device have 2 microphones. When I'm calling through GSM just 1st microphone working (which on the down side). When I'm calling through VoIP 2 microphones working at the same time (i tried standard android VoIP utility, 3cx phone, bria - all the same) and SE mini Pro generating very noticeable echo effect to the line. It looks like somebody saying me something and right after hearing himself loudly echo. It's happening because 2nd microphone (near earphones socket) hearing what listening speaker saying with short delay.
My wife has SE mini (st15i) on her phone everything working very well without any echo effect.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem? Is it possible to switch off the 2nd microphone without soldering iron!?

Firstly i tried VoIP on stok, then i tried it after update to official 62 through air, then i opened bootloader and update to custom 62 cleaned off rubbish. Unfortunately the same symptom.
Be the way, an echo became less in proportion with decreasing earphone speaker volume when call active.
What i really understand the name of the problem is noise cancelation system. It works incorrectly with VoIP calls. And this problem not only for se sk17i.
Has anyone managed to make a video call over Skype from Ray without using headphones? I've been facing this problem ever since I got my Ray (4 months already) - looks like the speaker is too close to the mic, and that causes some strong feedback which in turn creates unbearable noise in the mic. Is there any solution to this? And has anyone experienced it at all?
I must note that when I use any headset (apart from original SE Bluetooth set, which is a different problem), the problem is of course gone, because there's no feedback in that case. Also, this problem only occurs on video calls, i.e. only when Loudspeaker is on. If I'm making audio-only call (that is, when sound comes from the earpiece on the phone and is silent enough not to reach the microphone), there is also no problem.
yea, have same thing on my ray. Its all about filters, we have it at our pc's for mic's, u know this noise options ... but i think its to hard for a phones ))
Короче не пруха )
I made several Skype calls using the cam or speakerphone, no problems here.

azz: this is actually trivial and modern phones do it every day. The Ray even has 2 mics on different places which are used to filter out noise from speech. I'm not sure why it doesn't work well on your Ray, though.

You have to turn the nose filtering on yourself though ... or at least it's not on by default in the ICS beta ... been a while since GB for me.
I think I have fixed this, thanks to replies of all of you guys. Try going to:
Code:
Settings > Sound
and turn off the xLOUD setting. I've tried it on three conversations this morning and it seems to be okay, but I'd like to know if you can improve your results too.
Ok lemme see. Iam still trying different rom's on my ray, since ibeats in miui not so perfect, iam taked repack from 4pda to check it and now can test with xloud too, coz in Miui u havent those options
I have a strange problem with Xperia Go phone and bluetooth headset. My voice is distorted in the direction to person whom I'm speking and I can not use the headset as daily use.
It seems like the microphone gain is set full-time maximum. If I talk quietly the sound is clear, but if I raise my voice it get distorted.
And this is not just me, some of Xperia (Go/U/P) phone owners report same problem in Sony Xperia™ support forum. For some strange reason, some users do not seem to have any problems?
I've tried three different Xperia phone and five different bluetooth headset device, all have the same problem. Other brand phones with headsets working as it should.
The same problem occurs with a stock ICS / JB and CM9.
How the headset microphone gain is adjusted, is there some mechanism for feedback from the phone? Does anyone here have the same problem?
I had this problem a while ago, Xperia U with Jabra CLIPPER, after using the "repair my phone" functionality in PCC, so contacted the customer support in Jabra and they told me to wait until the battery dies, then recharge, also to use it with Wi-Fi disabled, does not really make sense to me but noticed some improvements, finally sold it, and used a wired headset instead... sad but true...
I have also tried everything to fix the problem: wlan off, charging, screen off, repair phone and hf software, isolated phone to another room (to see if internal mic is active same time with bluetooth mic), tried every settings in audio.conf etc.
I have noticed that the "distortion threshold" depends on bluetooth device - the more expensive device (more sensitive microphone?) - more distortion.
Also, Jelly Bean brought little improvement in the situation, but it does not fix it completely.
Does anyone have an interest / skills to investigate the problem more? Is it possible to monitor messages on phone and the bluetooth device to see if the phone tells bluetooth device to set mic gain at maximum?
seems like my xperia go also having the same problem.. when using bluetooth headset, people cant hear my voice clearly, the mic too sensitive causing my voice distorted, and this problem only happen when using bluettooth headset. tried with a few different bluetooth headset and the problem still there.. any solution for so far? can this problem solve by sending phone to sony service center?

Hi,
I'm having very interesting problem - I have smartphone Lenovo P770 with Android 4.1 in it. It runs on official chinese ROM remade by Etotalk.com.
Everything was working fine, but few days ago, internal memory was full, so I moved some downloaded apps (games) from internal storage to SD card.
The day after this microphone got somehow broken - when I call someone, they can't hear me (they actually do, but very very poorly(= very quietly)). When I switch to handsfree, they hear me OK. Also, I'm using Bluetooth headset very often and people can hear me good. Only when I call normally, people can't hear anything.
This is weird, because all moved apps were downloaded, none was built-in. Also, when I record a video, sound is without a problem.
I tried
cleaning the microphone
turning volume of microphone up/down
moving all apps back to internal storage
factory reset
none of this worked. Did someone experience similar problem? Or does anybody know how to resolve it?
Any help is appreciated
Hi,
I'm having the same problem.
I have smartphone Lenovo P770 with Android 4.1 in it. It runs on official chinese ROM.
My Phone is rooted so, I returned a cell phone in the initial factory setting.
Now I can record sound and can be heard. Even the radio can listen without headphones.
But still the phone calls not working microphone and speaker.
Hi,
Maybe its hardware related..just flash the stock official rom for your phone, then try to request help from service centre..
