Microphone problem - Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers

I think there's problem with Microphone on POCO F1 . It works fine on Calling and PUBG, but works very poor,compared to other phone, in Voice Recorder app , and Video recording, and even voicemail on facebook messenger. In order to get better Sound , I need to place the microphone very near my mouth, or source of sound. I am not sure whether the microphone on all POCO F1 is like this , or it is just in mine. And is it a hardware or software problem? If it is a hardware problem , why does it work fine on PUBG?

I have recognized it first on the internal voice recorder app - i barely could understand what I have recored. Then I've tried my usual recorder app (EasyVoiceRec.) and didn't have any issues, so I forgot about that.
But today I made some calls, using the hands free mode and the other side told me they almost can't understand anything I say. It got only better when I turned OFF the hands-free-mode.
So yes, damn, the mic has a serious problem. It doesn't matter whether it's cell call, whatsapp, skype.
Btw. what does "PUBG" means?

[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.

Microphone suddenly defect or quietly

My microphone became suddenly quiet. With the phoning it went only over loudspeaker. In WhatsApp one hears Nothing more. With Snapchat a little bit. Before nothing has happened with the mobile phone.
It begins after using latest MiUi about a Month. After flash latest RR, no result. Any help?

Do a microphone test. Lots of apps available in playstore for that. If the test result not good then you might need to visit service centre.

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.

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.
