There is a big audio issue with my RN3. Since I installed CM13 official nightly the loud speaker stopped working while using media playbacks. But only the ringtone is working fine, means the loud speaker only works when getting a call but it does't work during a call. I ignored it for a while thinking the next update might solve the issue. Still the problem persists. So, a while back I started using CM 14.0 and 14.1 by santosh. And new isuue came up, now the in speaker (ear) stopped working but the loud speaker is fine during a call. Also the media is all mute, can't hear anything. And yesterday I installed 7.1 rom by abhishek987 same issue. Could someone please explain what might be the problem and help me solve the issue.
Hmm... Did you make clean installs (wipe everything except microsd?)
You could try flashing back MIUI and see if it fixes it, if not im afraid it might be a hw problem
I have (almost) the sam issue.
What i have done: i did a factory reset through twrp and switched from crdroid 7.0 to santosh cm 14.1. All was fine, but yesterday i recognized my mic is not working (phone call, audio recording, Google search etc...). BUT: loudspeaker is working fine, even audio recording via Video.
What i have done:
-restored backup from crdroid 7.0
-restored backup from aicp 12
But my mic is still not working
I also did a full wipe (including /system) and installed aicp 12.1. it does not work
What can i do?

Update: even with my Bluetooth headset with INTEGRATED microphone, i cant make a call or recording...
Must be a Software issue, but why i cant revert via backup?! Seems like Firmware / radio issues for me and that my alka / cofface recovery did not backup these partitions?!

Yeah. This happens from time to time in this phone. Try to clean your mini jack and it should work all fine.

Hello everyone!!!
I have a problem, a very big problem...
I had CM14.1 5/12 Official build nightly properly working, and I left the phone without using it for about 2 hours... When I took it, I tried playing music, but there was no sound... However, I was receiving notification sound... I made a call, on both modes, normal and speaker mode, it worked, calling to myself - the phone rang... But no multimedia sound, music players, YouTube... No multimedia sound was being reproduced...
I reflashed the ROM, with full wipes, and flashed plenty of ROMs, both MIUI, CM13 and CM14.1 based, also restored full MIUI backup from TWRP... No result, fastboot flashed offical global dev 6.12.1, EDL and fastboot flashed 7.5.3 MIUI, flashed Qualcomm factory ROM by QFIL... No result!!
If I put my headphones, multimedia sound works, but won´t reproduce on speaker... On MIUI and Qualcomm factory ROM, the headphone logo appears on the statusbar, and it can´t be removed, no matter headphones are connected or not... I think this has something to do with this problem!
Any idea?
Pls help!! I am lost and I don´t know what to do more than that!
Thanks and regards!!
Try to clean the headphone jack ...
May be water had entered into the headphone jack...
In such a case, keep the mobile reverse (headphone jack facing downwards) for at least 2-3 hours and clean the jack with cotton and blow air into the jack.
Also try to use volume control apps from playstore to increase media volume
Also enter into the QC Test mode and test the hardware....

i had the same problem few years back on Zenfone 2 4gb, whenever i flash custom kernel or cm roms.. this used to happens with my device specifically.. headset always plugged in... in your case first you have to figure out is this issue is physical or software issue, whenever you get headset pluged in.. just plug in the headset and then take it out.. now play music and observe the issue...
secondly there may be water or moisture joining the contact pins.. buts thats rare.
Thank u all for your answers, I first got the answer on CM14.1 post...
The headphone jack was dirty, with a small stick, I introduced it and screen turned on and stick got a little dark... And now it works!! So it was hardware problem (software was almost impossible, I had tried everything)
Thanks and regards everyone!

the heaphone jack is the problem... its been shorted i suppose and thus phone thinks headphone is connected.... to verify this try some root app that disables the headphone jack

I had the same issue. No media sound but sound working fine in notifications and alarm. Was on Stock MIUI. Changed to Nitrogen Rom. The issue persisted. When I searched around find this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/help/sound-speaker-playing-music-t3478002
Tried the solution mentioned there i.e. plugging and unplugging a headset into the jack a few times fastly. I did around 8 plug unplugs and it worked.
Hi, I have issues with my microphone, like thisPlease help with microphone., so I have tried many ROM because my microphone work fine, his don't have any problem, only when I call. (whatsapp call, recorder, it's fine, the sound is good).
Then I found MIUI 9 ROM, and the microphone work fine... but this ROM have older patch securities and I don't like... so I would like left his call app in Pixel Rom for example...
Thanks
Hey everyone,
So this issue has been ongoing for a while and it's a pretty confusing one. (Running OG Pixel from Canada, originally from Telus)
My speakers and microphone suddenly stopped working when I upgraded to Android 9. I thought it could have been a hardware failure, but after much testing it's clearly software related.
I bought a Bluetooth headset, audio works when it's rooted to a Bluetooth device, but the microphone still doesn't work.
When I go into settings, and adjust the volume for the ringer and the alarm, my speakers work.
When I boot into safe mode, my microphone works for one recording, then stops working. However my speakers don't work in safe mode.
I have flashed an OTA recovery, done a factory reset and also uninstalled updates to the phone, sms and camera app in a hopes it was an issue with one of those.
Any ideas of what it could be?
Do I need to install TWRP and reflash a custom rom?

Did anything helped??? I am facing the same issue with my phone if your device got normal please help.!
Hi there. I've flashed RR 9 om my phone. I now have an issue with Google assistent and Smule. The mic in my headset doesnt work with these apps. IT Works fine in-call. The build in mic Works fine too. I've tried installing hardware tester. Mic 1 Works in headset. Mic 2 is very low Perhaps due to my cover?? Is there any way to fix this without root? I dont want to root my phone as I have important personal apps that dont work on a rooted phone.
Update. It seems like Google assistent won't switch headset mic on. But it turns off inbuild mic. The headset is beeing registred.
