I've noticed that my speaker sounds fine on any sense based rom or newtoroot's GPE rom. When I try anything like CM 10.2 based/SlimBean DLX the speaker sound is distorted. It seems to have a crackling effect. Not sure where the source of the issue is from and can't imagine this is normal. If it is an issue with the phone I can't see any way to get a warranty replacement if the issue doesn't happen on stock rom.
Anyone familiar with this or have any recommendations?

Does the fascinate have an in-line microphone on the headphone jack?
I'm trying to use a Square card reader which uses the jack in-line microphone but it doesn't work. I am running CM7.1 nightly 122, so I'm not sure if it's a problem with the ROM, my specific phone, or the fascinate i general. The card reader does work in my iPod Touch and my wife's Captivate (also running CM7.1, stable).
Anyone have any insight? Thanks!
I don't know about CM7.1 but the fascinate does have an inline mic, i've used it... stock rom, and GeeWiz both work.
Redeyes was on irc and trying to get it to work. It seems that the inline and ground (or something similar to that) have been switched in cm7 for some reason. Such devices should still work on touchwiz based roms.
Afaik there is no fix for cm7

I wonder if it could be fixed for AOSP? That would be most excellent IMO, I'd like to be able to use that feature of my headphones, but not bad enough to run a stock rom.
It does work on my Captive i897 running cm7.1 stable, perhaps that could be looked into to get a fix for the fascinate?
Having the same issues
I have also been having issues with the square reader. I did see someone suggest once that the plastic ring around the jack may have been impeding the connection, but after removing it, it still does not work. I've tried stock rom on the thing and I've tried CM7 stable and nightly 112 with no progress. I really hope this thread gets noticed a bit more so the problem could possibly be fixed in the near future. I'm currently on CM7 stable with no special radios added or anything. Here's hoping that something comes along soon.
I know it doesn't work on any GB AOSP builds, but I believe I read that external mics are working on AOKP build 27. I'm gonna try today...

a bit more info,
Mic headphone jack does not work on any AOSP build EVER! JT never got it working properly and no one has ever fixed it. This means no headphone mic on ICS or GB AOSP builds, no CM anything.
This was all to get the square up reader working. I decided to flip the ground and mic wires on the square adapter itself, this did not work. Finally I loaded an AOKP build on a Droid Incredible and the same build on my Fassy, the Inc worked fine with the square app and mic worked. Fassy, no go.
In the end, the mic isn't active and it most likely will never be fixed. Time to move on I suppose.
Hello everyone. I have quite a big problem with the audio on the Galaxy Vibrant when flashing to JB 4.2.1 with CyanogenMod 10.1. Even with bare CM10.1, and whether with or without installing the gapps package, the audio (phone or music) would sound slower-paced and significantly distorted.. I guess the best way to describe that is with an example: a song sung by female vocalist would sound deep and a bit slow, and it would sound like that through the speakers or earphone. Could it be that the phone doesn't have enough processing power or appropriate audio driver? At first I thought I blew the speakers but then audio works just fine if flashing back to stock Froyo. I even flashed CM 10.0 stable version to find the same problem; in fact CM10 was even worse because in addition to audio distortion, the keyboard driver didn't work. CM10.1 seemed to work ok except the audio is not acceptable/usable. After a few times flashing back and forth I'm convinced that something is wrong but, being an Android noob I can't say what its problem is. I haven't tried ICS yet but kinda don't want to go with ICS.
I also notice that once flashed to CM10.1 the home button doesn't work anymore.
I looked around a bit and even googled for similar problem but I can't believe my Vibrant seems to be the only one with the problem. With the collective knowledge of smartphone gurus here, would someone please lead me to the light if you know what the problem is. Thanks a lot.
Just installed the latest Vanilla Rootbox rom on my Note 2 and after trying many different roms, this is BY FAR my favorite. However, as with all AOSP/AOKP/CM roms I've had the exact same issue, which to be honest is minor considering. To the point, I'm looking for a way to enable the second microphone for in call noise cancellation. When is use a TW rom my GF says that I sound great, but on any other form of rom she complains about hearing static when I'm driving, my AC running in the background ect.. It has to be dead quite for her to hear and understand me :/ Any fixes? Or is this just the way these roms run?

Try Plasma kernel and tweak with the settings in STweaks under audio, I posted my settings in the Plasma thread and have no issues with anyone hearing me whatsoever.

I have searched quite a bit for an answer/fix for the speakerphone echo that occurs only with CM based roms. I haven't seen anything regarding this in any of the CM ROM theads. What's happening is, when Im on the phone with someone and I switch to speakerphone the person I'm talking to complains about their voice echoing back to them.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
me too
Im in insert coin rom , im start face this issue , i do think its mic issue
I've noticed it on the ViperDNA rom as well as NuSense and NuSense 6 roms. I see it on Skype and Hangouts. It probably has something to do with the kernels that are used for the 4.2+ roms. The last time I recollect I had these apps working fine was when I was on a stock VZW rom back in December '13.

Update your firmware. Speaker works fine on NuSenseSIX.

so I flashed a cm11 rom then a aosp rom then other roms kept getting the same problems crackle speakers and not being able to use my phone in speaker mode when making calls nobody can hear me so does anybody have a clue what I should do to fix it or flash to fix it pretty much a newbie here so excuse me for my ignorance :/
All aosp roms are really buggy on the m8. Speakerphone is finally fixed but still a lot of other issues are still there. Maybe try sinless gpe for the time being.
I tried that rom you mention its works great!!
