ermghoti 88 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Friday morning, I received a call, everything was normal. Friday evening, I got another call. I could hear the caller clearly, but they could not hear me. They called back, I put them on speakerphone, and we completed the call. Since then, the only way to take a call is on speakerphone. I've tried turing the device off and back on, which completely exhausts my technical expertise. Any pointers? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
internationaltraitor 84 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 any luck? i know there was a thread on this somewhere, where they (easily) took the phone apart and blew out the dust from the microphone to get it working again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingAntero 871 Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 I don't know about the microphone but there was thread about ear speaker. Also, you can find couple teardowns from here. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It hasn't worked since 13NOV. I was hoping it would straighten out, but it looks like I'll need to contact F(x)Tec, and get approval to take it apart. My first one drowned, so I took it almost entirely apart and reassembled it, so I'm optimistic I can get at the microphone. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ermghoti 88 Posted November 25, 2020 Author Share Posted November 25, 2020 To be fair, the first thing I tried after a reboot was to press on the exterior where the mike is, having heard some of the internals get loose. After re-reading, I opened the phone and massaged the base and screen separately. That may have been it, or it may have gotten tired of not working, or it may have just been crap reception.

shubell 39 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 well not sure where i read that but the microphone has some interference issues with GSM. Should work better with 3g and Volte. The thing i notice is that when there is noisy environment the other one can't hear you, sometimes people say to me that they can hear the people in the background more than me. Maybe to much mic gain, back mic not working, noise cancellation issue... Am currently playing around a bit with mixer paths and persist.audio setting in build.prop. It is a bit of a long shot as it is more of an trial end error thing 😉 will see 😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ermghoti 88 Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 I'm on VOLTE and it happened both in the car, and at home with no sound beyond an aquarium filter. So far a briefly lived glitch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ermghoti 88 Posted December 26, 2020 Author Share Posted December 26, 2020 Where would I find that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DieBruine 397 Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I think we can safely assume your reply answers the question, stock 🙃. Next time try looking at the connection type. Way back when the Droid 4 was introduced the mic didn't work on 4G in Europe. Manually setting it to 3G was the temporary workaround. This was fixed months later with a firmware upgrade. So, that's why I'm curious to find out if this happens with your Pro1 in combination with a specific band... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Voice network is LTE, VoLTE provisioned is selected. I just received a call with the normal mic, got a couple minutes in, lost the mic, then switched to speaker and completed the call.
