Major audio issue - Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Questions & Answers

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.

NO Multimedia SOUND - Need help

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!

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.

Viper4Android detecting headset while nothing is plugged in

I'm on LineageOS 14.1 and recently I've been having problems with Viper4Android (Viper4Arise SwanSong 2.94). It detects the headset while there is nothing plugged in, so nothing goes out through the speaker. I uninstalled it twice and everything went back to normal afterwards. I have to note that this kept happening since I first installed Viper on my new Redmi Note 4 (SD), but usually after I disconnected my headphones, it would still keep "playing", though as soon as I stopped the music player, it went to normal.
Has anyone ever had this problem? I really don't wanna stop using Viper because I love it

Mic not working on Speaker....
Make sure if your microphone is covered or not. I had the same problem because my case was covering the top microphone hole.

Poco X2 Microphone isn't working. Using latest MIUI 12.2.
Hey,
Bought Poco X2 on Sep 2020. Now microphone issue started, nobody can hear my voice on the other side of the call. Need to restart each time.
Performed Factory Reset several times.
Updated MIUI 12.2.
Removed cache files.
Did everything which I can, but no solution.
Now, going to customer care services.
Just wanted to let everyone know that, in October-2020 also this problem present.
Hello guys.
I've been facing the same issue for the past two days. I'm using poco x3 indian version which doesn't have NFC. This problem can be temporarily solved. For a permanent fix, you gotta approach service centre for bug fix. The solution for this problem for the time being is as follows
1. Switch off all wireless connectivity other than mobile data.
2. Go to settings and switch off VoLTE(if you have kept the VoLTE on).
3. Make a call from the mobile.
4. While the call is in progress, again go to settings and go to VoLTE.
5. While staying in the VoLTE settings screen, hang up the call from the floating phone app icon(any other way to hang up the call is ok for this).
6. As soon as you hang up the call, switch on the "use VoLTE" option.
7. Try making a call with VoLTE on and check whether the earpiece and mic are working well.
This helped me solve the issue.
Please make sure that you switch on the VoLTE suddenly as you hang up the call and make sure it got switched on.
Please respond if this worked for anyone of you. Thanks.
Sorry reviving this old thread, but I've got this problem on my Poco F1, Android 12 via CrDroid. I can't find a solution anywhere.

Why is my mic and speakers no longer working?

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?
