I have a Samsung Tab S7+ with lastest firmware and software updates.
The only problem i am facing is the microphone.
When i capture a video or record sound, it works perfectly. I can hear the recorded voice clearly.
But when i making video call (viber, messenger, duo, skype,...), the volume on the other line's speaker is very low. I tested with my mobile phone and result was the same.
I thought the reason is more likely from software than hardware.
Does anyone have the same problem as me and please help me fix this issue. Thank you so much.

Had precisely same issue. Due to teaching over videoconference, solved it with these 2 items
Adapter for USB-C
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07CVX3516/
Microphone
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07QFRXJ9R/
The microphone is also excellent for our laptops and vastly superior for built-in mic

Hey everyone,
Ever since I've received this RN3, its mic has been a constant source of frustration. it appears to be off during phone/whatsapp/.. calls (other party can't hear me AT ALL). Now before you think that this is a HW issue, when I record a video with the builtin camera app, it does record sound but at a lower volume than I think it should be. This is what i've tried/noticed so far:
- The exact same thing happens on Global 7.3.2, Global dev 6.5.19 and Chinese 7.3.2.
- Swapped SIM and/or placed SIM in tray 2 (no effect)
- Flashed Santhosh's CM 13 ROM (other party still can't hear me)
- Used builtin sound recording app on MIUI ROMS: I can hear a lot of noise but not what has been recorded
- Used builtin sound recording app in CM 13 ROM: nothing
I've looked on the en.miui forum board and apparently I'm not the only one with this issue. Other ppl are facing the issue that the mic gets shut off after recording video (and a reboot solves it), but this is not the case for me.
Does anyone have any idea? Thx.
Have you fixed that problem?
I have the same issue but a little bit different. I don't own a pair of hans-free so when I answer a call I connect a pair of headphones and talk from the phone's mic. So unless I have the phone 1 cm next to my mouth the other person cannot hear me, which didn't happen with my old phone (the other person could hear me even if the phone was 2 meters away from me). And it is not an issue because when I answer a call in speaker mode it operates correctly.
So I've discovered that the problem lies within the secondary mic next to the jack port which is used for noise cancellation as people state in miui forums. The only solution I've came up with is covering the secondary mic with my finger every time I answer a call. With this solution the secondary mic is "disabled" and the primary mic operates as expected, people can hear me even if the phone is not right next to my mouth. Of course this is not a permanent solution but I haven't found a way to disable the secondary mic through software yet, or calibrate it to not falsely filter every sound as noise and canceling it.
hallo guys,
i have the same problem on my redmi note 3 (mtk) for months, its really annoying.
when im having a call, my mic suddenly switches and my call partner can only hear me very very silent.
also i had some situations, that my call partner can not hear me at all. herefore a reboot worked fine...
as mentioned above, the problem are the 2 different mics on the redmi note3.
one is at the bottom which should be used for calls (lets call this MIC1), the other one is on the top next to the head jack plug (MIC2)
sometimes the MIC1 switches and so the call partner only can hear you via the top MIC2 - thats why your voice is very very silent then.
on the other hand when you record a video, the voice is switched to the top MIC2 and might stay there also after the video as standard - thats why no one can hear you in calls then, or only hears you very very silent.
solution: close the hole for the upper MIC2 with a tape, then it won't switch during calls!
disadvantage:
- you can't put a call on speaker, because system switches to MIC2 which isnt working.
- you can't use google now for music detection, because system switches to MIC2 which isnt working.
- you might have sound issues when recording a video in landscape (i tested it, had no problems and could hear the sound when watching the recorded landscape video)
here is a link about the recording videos in landscape vs portrait:

and here a video with the tape solution:

are there any software solutions to disable the second mic??
How to solve Redmi note 3 mic Problem:
Step 1: Go to Google settings (Not phone setting)
Step 2: Tap on Search & Now
Step 3: Tap on voice . After that tap on “Ok Google” detection
Step 4: off the “Ok Google” detection .
Congratulation. Your Redmi note 3 mic Problem is solved. Its happening because of “Ok Google” service. Now your friends can easily listen to you without any disturbance.
This is a serious problem and just insane that is has not been fixed. I have the Redmi Note 3 Pro and Calls and talking is fine
Now recording anything at High Levels it sounds like a wave effect, both mics are on even if the top is covered same issue.
Its as if there is a threshold somewhere on the noise cancellation that after a certain decibel it tries to correct and auto compress and fails Large.
This must be software as it is leaving both mics on instead of having an option to turn one or the other or BOTH off and or on.
Using an acoustic guitar is pointless, I purchased this phone for the price/performance ratio and thought the audio would not be an issue while recording, it is now useless as it was used to get music ideas down for songs, record band in practice for ideas and live situations it is absolutely impossible and upsetting this simple feature has not been fixed. Back to rotary phones and 4 tracks I suppose.
So far 2 out of 3 Redmi note 3 SD i puchased for my self and friends have this problem of mic not working in calls. On speaker phone it is OK. Tried all the "fixes" I have found on various sites but none have worked. Have not tried one of the fixes as it requires installing TWRP and rootingand the owners are not happy for me to do this for them. Rebooting sometimes fixes one off them briefly but just fails again after 1 call . On the MIUI forum there are countless people with this problem on both chipsets with no fix
i have buy redmi note 3 on a month ago, now i have updated MIUI 8 and i face mic issue(other person can't hear me), done every thing but not able to resolve this issue, pls someone give permanent solution on this.
Interested to know if anyone has a solution for this. I have moved to CM14.1 to try and fix it but am still having this issue.
using the phone with closed MIC2 hole like described above
This solution works for me for Nougat:
Use a root explorer like ES Explorer to edit /system/build.prop
Find the line :
ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=fluence
Change to:
ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=none
Solution
NO ROOT REQUIRED. Simple Solution.
With me it worked using the soundabout app, just set up "phone call audio" by selecting wired headset (with mic) option.
Once done you can uninstall the app if you want. Cheers!
Hello all, so, the solution for the recording sound problem is the use of soundabout? in my redmi 3s I applied the fix.zip and it is solved, but in the RN3? just using this app?
Thanks!

Hello,
i have problem probably with noise reduction - when i record video in quite room, audio is ok,
but when background a little bit noise, i hear only some scratches, sometimes a quiet voice ...
The same situation is when i record call, barely hear voices... is there any possibility to change settings in noise reduction?
I'm using aosp, on miui there where only problem with call recording...
Is qualcomm have something similar to mtk engineering menu? Maybe some settings in build.prop?
I think it's a problem of the secondary mic (it is located next to the headphones port) which is used for noise cancellation. I haven't experienced an issue with video recording yet (because I haven't recorded any video) but I have problems with call quality. Every time I place the phone a little far from my mouth I hear complaints that the other person cannot hear me, which wasn't an issue with my older phone.
The temporary solution I have found is covering the secondary mic with my finger (thus disabling it). Also from what I've found in the internet there are some other phones with the same problem and there are ways to disable the secondary mic through software but I haven't tested it yet. Here are the links I'm talking about

I repeat that I haven't tested this fixes myself and I don't know if they are compatible with our phone.
Thanks for answer,
when i was looking for a solution, i saw tread from one+ but i was counting that is fix directly for our model.
Firstly i change build.prop - and now testing, in audio platform i dont have such line, solution from nexus same situation - dont have those lines.
Hello..
I have problem with background noise during audio call.. because of that noise.... I didn't talk with person who is in call..
Hello, my g5's microphone does not take a signal. no one can hear me on the calls, and i can´t record audios. When recording videos audio works because the phone uses the microphone above.
I have already changed the flex of charge where the microphone is and the problem continues.
Anyone have an idea how to solve it? maybe there is a loose connector on the motherboard .. a false contact .. or something like that?
Hi,
There is strange issue i am facing with my phone. Every time i get a call i can listen to the person but my voice does not reach the person from the other end. I have to connect my earphones and then speak through mic.
I did factory reset but that didn't help.
I am not sure whether its a hardware issue or a firmware one?
Any Solutions?

No mate , cannot record.
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?
