other end low sound in viber - Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers

hi there, i,m experiencing peculiar type of problem in my redmi 3 pro. while making a viber call, the other end always complain about low sound, even they have full ear piece vplume on their's. But, its fine with other apps link messenger and imo. Its fine with regular gsm call as well. Is that due to low mic gain for internet calls? if it was the case, then messenger and imo should also have the same problem. i'm just confused.

Same issue on different ROMs. Only viber has this problem (actually Viber on PC at other side) I had no such things on my old HTC device. Does anybody know something what is going on?

[Q] Weird microphone issues

I have recently purchased a Lenovo IdeaTab A2109-F which I was quite happy with, since this was the first time I have used an android tablet as I am coming from iOS background.Before I bought the tablet, I read that id had double microphone in order to make voice calls such as Skype clearer. Now , at first it seemed all good and I had people saying that the audio being received is clear and crisp on the other end of the call.
However after 2-3 mins in a call (every call) the microphone then goes really weird and audio being received from it becomes mumbled until it completely degrades where it seems like just random noises, sometimes it even goes all quiet. What I have noticed however , if I blow into the microphone it then goes all good again.
At first I thought it was a Skype app issue and so I downloaded a microphone voice recorder (memo recording sort of app) and same observations were made where voice being recorded completely degrades within 3 minutes of the recording, where blowing into the microphone temporary fixes the problem until it happens again after a minute or so.
Now I am lost here , I really like the tablet and I really doubt it's a hardware issue for some reason. I have a suspicion that something is either upping/lowering the sensitivity of the microphone and where blowing into the microphone seems to then readjust it.
I really hope somebody could help me out, maybe there is an app that allows to change microphone settings , or maybe something else that I could try out.
Thanks for your time! :good:
P.S Android Version: 4.1.1 and latest Skype app. I also tried upgrading the firmware, same problem was observed.
I still have the same issue on my Lenovo A2109. Skype, Line or any internet call, voice degrades within 8 - 10 mts and I had to end the call and re-do the call again. VERY ANNOYING... I thought it was just my tablet. I didn't try the trick of blowing into the microphone. Thanks for the tip. Did you get a solution yet? I thought upgrading would help. But thanks for confirming.

Problem with microphone only Video Call (not with Audio-Call)

Hallo everybody,
I have Bluboo Maya Max with the latest original firmware (DK9F23WAE.LTXI.H.SCS8.0419.V3.07) and did not try to root the device or change anything related to audio setup.
When I try to use Maya Max for VOIP calls (only audio-calls) with Whatsapp or Skype - it works good, the other side (the person I am calling) can hear me as well as when I call directly, i.e. VOIP audio call is very good and I can hear the other side very well.
However, when I try to do a Video-Call through Whatsapp or Skype (or any other Videocall app) - the video (picture) is good (in both direction), I can hear and see the other side very well, they can also see me very well, BUT: the other side can not hear me or hears me very badly !!!! As if my microphone volume is
I could not find any setup option to increase the microphone volume.
It is the same no matter what Internet speed I have and no matter if it is LTE or WiFi-DSL-connection. As if the phone uses another microphone or different audio-setup setting/volume when I try to do the Video call . This is specific to my phone (Bluboo) since when I use another phone (Laegoo or Samsung S6) at the same place/time and with the same Internet connection method - the other side can hear me and see me very well (so it is not problem of the I-net connection speed).
Does anybody have an idea why is this happening and how could I solve the problem?
Thanks for your help/suggestions.

Did you ever find a fix for this?
I installed [ROM][UNOFFICIAL][m8qlul] LineageOS 15.1 for HTC One M8s a few days ago and have encountered an issue where audio seems to work fine on normal calls, WhatsApp calls, and in video, but in WhatsApp (and Messenger) video calls although I can hear and see the other person they can see me but cannot hear me.
All permissions for WhatsApp are enabled. I cleared data, uninstalled, rebooted, and then reinstalled but observed the same issue.
Is there anything else worth trying?

Sound quality problem?

Hi.
I recently bought a Xiaomi Mi 10 and before using it I went through updates (so I cannot say how it was before).
I have noticed that when reproducing an audio or voice note in apps like WhatsApp or Telegram, the sound is very low and sometimes it reproduces them well and then bad and so on. It also happens in games, where a MI 9T with just one speaker is louder than mine. I have noticed too that it happens when increasing the general volume. At 60% you can hear the bass and amazing sound but if you increase it, the quality goes down and you hear too much treble.
I have been reading that I'm not the only one with this problem (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/speakerphone-loudness-clarity.4049087/), but I wanted to know if this is a common mistake or just some units.
Thanks!
Here a video:
Yes seem like guys are more interested in modding but ignore daily usage real problem. I confirm this problem and I ask you if you have big problem using proximity sensor when you call or want to ear vocal WhatsApp message without speaker. For me have a really bad setup

Totally agree. People is more concerned about ROMs and custom recovery than daily usage.
I have experienced that sometimes in calls I cannot make the sensor turn off the screen. Or in WhatsApp sometimes it goes crazy, but not frequently.
I read that you can solve that problem going to the dial and using the code *#*#6484#*#*. Then go to proximity sensor (23), cover it to check it goes from 0 to 5 and press ok and exit.
Hope you can solve it.

Question Bad microphone quality during video calls? Do you have this issue?

Hi!
I received my Redmi note 10 three days back. I have been facing issues with my voice quality during Whatsapp video calls ever since.
It is as if the phone tries to reduce the noise of the background and in the process, muffles my voice and the person on the other end can't hear me properly.
Is this a common issue or am I the only one having this?
Have you tried whats app cleared from the recent app list and then relaunch it. some times it causes too. or may be network issue.

Question Calls not working properly on calls and whatsapp calls.

Hi there people.
I've got the following issue. If anyone has this issue or has fixed it let me know.
Calls seem to be interfering with my mic. Sometimes my voice doesn't go to the other end even though normal call or whatsapp call. They might hear 1 word then nothing from me for a few seconds then a word or two and it sometimes sounds like a clicking noise.
I've called my self too and I can't hear anything on my RM7 but whoever I call can hear the clicking noise and sometimes nothing from me.
Sometimes I can't hear the other person too. It cuts out.
Same with normal calls and whatsapp calls.
Continuing my testing, I can send voice notes without issue and receive them and play it via rhe earpiece without issue too. Even voice recording and video recording the microphone does a good job only in calls it bugs out.
Continuing my testing
Works fine with headphones connected. But mic and earpiece work fine when used by voice notes and video ect
I don't know if it's a coincidence or not but I have the same issue. It started around last week.
I cleaned my speakers and mic thinking I got dirt build up. But it's still the same.
It seems like a software issue. Looking at the patch notes in latest OS update (NX679J_UNcommon_V3.16) for me, they have listed "Repair: possible issues with calls in some scenarios". I don't know when they released the update and when I applied it to my phone but that could be the reason for this issue too.
After reading your post I tried regular calls with headphones, speakers and video call with Google meet. They all work fine.
For call on speaker, as soon as you turn the speaker off it starts acting up again.
Hopefully they will fix this issue soon.
From my testing it seems like its an app or something interfeering with the calls. I started the phone up in safe mode (no 3rd party apps only stock ones) and the issue was gone, so the issue is a app related issue, thinking its a virus I just reset the phone to factory and all is good now. I didnt find what was causing it.
Thanks for an update.
I will play around a bit and if it doesn't work out then will do the same.
