Phone: LG G2. Rom CloudyG3 2.0
Hi, when im trying to send some voice notes over Whatsapp it sounds terrible, I know that this is a common issue with the G2 so i'm trying to disable the 2nd mic to see what happen. I'm using Cloudy g3 2.0, but as far as I tried others it's not a Rom problem.
When I record using the built in record app everything is good, sounds clear, I tried using another apps that let me choose wich Mic to use (top mic or bottom mic) and it sounds good. So its a Whatsapp problem, maybe they over-compress the audio file, i dont know, but i'm trying to disable the 2nd mic for this app but i dont know how to do that, is there any way of doing that?
thanks!

Flashed the latest CM7 build for Thunderbolt and the new OTA radio.
The relationship between the OTA radio and CM7 probably has nothing to do with this...
Anyways, my problem is with many applications that use the microphone.
For example: Voice Dialer, Sound Recorder, Video Camera Microphone, etc.
The microphone recording volume is really low. Anything I can do to bump this up?
The volume is so low that I have to literally scream into Voice Dialer to make it hear anything.
Weird thing, Google Voice Search works just fine.
I also have the same problem. The problem is also occured Video chat programs, such as Skype and Tango.
Do anyone resolved this issue?
I'm at MR2 radio(latest official one) + CM7 RC 1.2
I have this same issue.. its the only thing "wrong" with CM7 at the moment that I've found atleast.

I have the same problem. I notice that when I use the speaker phone for skype, the mic don't work. When I use the headset, the mic works fine. This is the only problem with CM7, I hope it gets fixed! Thanks.

For Skype, my audio is really low. For the video camera, the audio is way to loud and is frequently clipping
my NT is rooted on 1.4.0. (I haven't upgraded yet until I need to or see a useful advantage.)
I've tried the latest version of skype and also groovip. both seem to have a microphone problem. groovip had secial submenu in settings called trouble shooting which handled the inbound voice and got it working but the outbound like skype has mic problems. mic works fine in other apps. possible permissions problem or device mapping issue? I'm not that tech savy so any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. (or a referral to another app similar to groovip)
thank you for retina-refraction-time.

until custom roms are out, there is no way that the microphone will work with any voip apps.
i think the reason behind it is because the nook os is forbidding the microphone to be used with anything other than what it was meant to be used for.
read and record your voice for children's books and the like. this is probably the reason why some apps that use the microphone do work such as google voice search, hi-q mp3 recorder, etc.
the common thing between those two apps is that they are used to record your voice, where as voip does more than that.
so until custom roms are out, voip apps will not work. installing a custom rom means installing new software, in this case installing a new OS.
hope this helps. we are getting real close to CM9 so just hang in a little longer!
I tried out the new beta of Evi (siri altenative on android) it seems to work great. I haven't tried the headphones/mic jack. does it support mic through headphones and has anybody tried it?
I have used teamspeak and ventrillo.

Gentlemen,
I have a T-Mobile Galaxy S III which I've rooted and installed the latest AOKP milestone, which I really like. Here's what I'm running:
Android version: 4.2.2
Baseband version: T999UVDLJA
Kernel version: 3.4.40-aokp-g4c49719-00569-g2b8fa28
AOKP version: aokp_d2tmo_jb-mr1_milestone-1
Build number: aokp_d2tmo-userdebug 4.2.2 JDQ39
Aside from the occasional random reboot, which I can live with, the only problem I have is with Skype. It won't play audio over the loud speaker on the back of the phone. Audio only comes through the earpiece which is much too quiet. Ringing, call audio, everything plays through the earpiece. In an audio-only call, you have the option to toggle between the earpiece or the speaker, but both options just play through the earpiece.
Making a normal speakerphone call (not using Skype) works great. Skype just can't seem to use the speaker. What can I do to diagnose and fix this?
I know it sounds obvious, but I gotta ask anyway. Have you checked the settings in Skype?

Yes, I've been through all the settings and there's nothing about speaker vs. earpiece. The only option I've seen to toggle between the two is when I'm on a voice only call. However, when I've tried toggling speaker/earpiece, sound will play on the speaker for half a second then go back to earpiece.

I'm having the same problem. In my case there is no choice of speaker in Skype at all (not within setting nor while calling). I have seen some print-screens of the mobile Skype and there was as option for switching to loud speaker/headset while talking (a blue icon with speaker/headset). However, when I'm making a call, I don't have such option. I went through all sorts of discussion, but I haven't seen any solution to this.
Resolved
Regarding the option to switch speakers during a call, it's only available during a voice call. If video is enabled, the option disappears.
It seems the issue has been mostly resolved for me. I'm not sure if the problem was with CyanogenMod or Skype. Since I couldn't find a solution in May, I just abandoned using it on my phone. I didn't pick it back up until a week ago when I upgraded to CyanogenMod 10.1.0-d2tmo and got the latest Skype app (recently released). Now everything mostly works as it should. It's still buggy, but usable.
Samsung Galaxy Grand Neo.
I was searching for this Skype Bug Fix everywhere, with no success
But today I was trying everything, and my speaker started working after I putted volume less then have.
So by putting lower volume it works on my Samsung Galaxy Grand Neo (GT-I9060)
Hi all, I've inherited a used Evo3D GSM phone which works very well except for one important issue. The Mic seems to be failing.
I'm not completely sure if this is a hardware problem or just routing.
Strangely enough, with ICS based Roms, the phone is using the earpiece (?!) as microphone; when I speak with my mouth near the earpiece sound is crisp clear on the other side but when I speak to the Mic it sounds muffled (because in fact sound input seems to be set to the earpiece and the mic is not active).
When I switch to VoIP calls using CsipSimple, the person on the other end cannot hear my voice. Only when I go into CsipSimple settings and change "Audio mode for SIP calls" from IN_Communication to IN_Call, the phone works as in a regular call (with earpiece as input, mic dead).
With other, JB and KK based roms, I've had different results; CsipSimple always crashes, no matter what settings I use and phone calls audio are always broken (no input).
Has anyone had similar issues? Can u use CsipSimple without problems on JB and KK based Roms?

Hey, I use an LG F60 wich runs 5.0.1 and since i upgraded ( March 10th) the stereo of the microphone disappeared on most of the apps , and i ran a CPU test and said that rear microphone didnt existed when in this app running kk said i had rear mic, i waant someone to help me to change the microphone settings to disable Automatic gain control, bc the mono sound of my micro sounds muffled and dirty, i disabled AGC in one 3rd app recorder, but i cant find a setting to disable it of system, i tried ALSA and Viper4Android, and didn't find nothing related to mic, also in enginer mode Audio settings are not implemented yet. I also tried changing mixer_paths and those files, but i really don't know wich text i have to replace,and i can upload the files here, if someone wants to help me changing it..
Does someone know is there is one specific app or module, (without recovery) that disables AGC? my microphone without AGC in mono sound, sounds very HQ but with it sounds pretty muffled, and in whatsapp recordings is terrible.
