Question microphone won't work unless on speaker phone during calls - Google Pixel 6

Hello everyone
Guys I don't know what happened to my pixel 6, no one can hear me on a call only on speakerphone ! I didn't make any changes, the problem happened with all apps, WhatsApp, telegram, phone, Snapchat, recorder ... etc
I've tried some troubleshooting like enable microphone access in privacy, Safe mode, and finally i did a factory reset, but nothing help !
Please help me.
Thanks.

I had this problem and as my Pixel came from the UK and in my country there is no support or guarantee I had to do whatever it took to resolve it. This problem occurs on some Pixel, the microphone deforms and stops working. The solution: Fit your mouth as close as you can to the microphone outlet, try to seal it, and blow hard. I'm serious. I did it once and it started to work a little bit, then I did it a second time and it totally fixed it. I never had that problem again. You can also use compressed air

Doing this using my mouth it won't affect on any components but using compressed air there is a risk, and i did it with mouth i blew hard in charge port and the right slot where the mic existing, but no difference!

[Q] Noise cancellation/microphone hole is not open

Hi there,
At my SGS2 it seems the microphone hole next to the microUSB cable, is not open. Everybody complains they can't hear me.
Sure, I can send the SGS2 back, but then I'm won't have a phone for the next couple of weeks.
Does anyone know, who already disassembled the SGS2, what this could be? Some soft plastic which I can easily remove with a needle?
My last option would be send it back, but maybe you guys know an option?
Can I use some audio codes for cranking up te mic?
Thanks!

Hmm .. seems I have the exact same problem here. People are complaining they can't hear me and they hear a terrible echo. Tried with headset, problem solved (of course ) Not sure if it is not open, I can see something gray inside the hole, which could be the mic. Disassembling is not an option for me, just got it yesterday so .. if there is really something wrong I will go back to the store asap.
I am disappointed about this, really, expected a lot from this phone to replace my Desire.
EDIT: tried also speakerphone, then it is all normal. Speakerphone uses the mic on top near the headphone jack, I just found out. It looks like a faulty mic to me (or covered with something).
EDIT 2: Fixed, although people say that with my previous phone the quality was better. Reset to factory defaults did the trick for me. It seems that the firmware update the other day (used Kies) had messed something up, that is my guess.
New device
Well, I kept holding the problem. Yesterday in the morning all was fine, in the noon people kept telling they hear me with bad quality and an echo. I went back to the store, explained the situation, they gave me a new device. I can clearly see the difference in the microphone hole .. the first phone it was closed, here it is more open. Problem should be solved now, I hope. I can say that I tested the quality myself and I can hear the difference. The sound of voice is more clear and louder.
I think it is word a shot for you to try to change your phone for a new one.

others cant hear me during call\Mic not turning on?

This issue has suddenly appeared. I have tried stock rom (nordic) CM9 and different aosp roms and also different modems, but the problem always returns after half a day or something.
So I can factory reset my phone, make a couple of calls and everythings fine for awhile but then suddenly no one can hear me during calls. I mean there is no sound at all, dont think the mic is turned on. The sound can start to get poor (like im on speaker and far away from the phone) til it doesnt work at all.
I have testet the microphones using voice recorder and taking a video and everything works fine, so i refuse to belive that the mic is faulty. Although its even weirder that the problem still persists after multiple full wipes (format system, cache, data, dalvik) different roms. Probably flashed stock rom with odin 3 times now and the problem is still there. I am now running fully stock non rooted, ive reset the custom binary counter and im ready to send the phone in for repair.
Unless the community can help me out ? any replies are appreciated!
Thanks!
Note that I can still hear the other person but he cant hear me. Switching to speaker and it all works fine ?!?!
What happends when i switch to speaker? does the phone switch microphones aswell? I understand that theres a mic on the top and bottom.

Yes. Regular voice calls use the lower mic, speakerphone uses the top mic. So it sounds like either something is blocking the lower mic, or the lower mic has failed. If you're comfortable opening the phone up yourself, you can try re-seating the rubber housing that is on the lower mic yourself. If not, take it to a service center.
Returned from repair
So guys I received med phone back from repair yesterday and the following parts have been replaced:
Module-RCV+MOT+MIC+E/Jack FPCB (GT_I9100)
ASSY ETC-SUB FPCB (GT_I9100)
And guess what, the problem still persists, my first phone call worked fine, but then the second call failed just like before?!?!!?
Is it possible that there is another hardware fault thats causing this?

Bump..... anyone???
Hmm. Maybe the rubber housing on the mic slipped after the first call, and is now blocking the mic. Or the part failed again. Or did you maybe put a case on the phone after the first call?

Headphone jack problem

Hello!
Half year ago I purchased my Z2 and after using it for a month some problems started happening with the jack plug.When I plugged in any headphones and started listening to music, it would stop if the jack got moved even by a tiny little bit, like if you put it in your pockets or just by rotating it with my hand very slightly.I took it to the local service centre and they replaced it.It was working fine until now and it started doing it again.My phone is fortunately waterproof, never had problem with that.I'll take it to the service again but do you have any idea how to prevent this next and what could cause this?
Thank you
Bad luck bro.No one from here complained about that kind of problem.From my experience the only problem i had with the jack was when i dived the phone in to water.After that the jack was not responsitive for like 2/3 hours.I dont know if there is some kind of protection preventing it from working so that the jack can dry in that time.After the 2/3 hours the thing was that when i plug the earphones in it the same problem like yours occured for like 1/2 hours.Sometimes it detected the earbuds,sometime it didnt.It constantly connected/disconnected them,but only for like half an hour or so,then it went back to normal working perfectly.
I got the same problem, and my girlfriend got it also since two weeks ago. I fixed it (actually not fixed it, but made it much less annoying) on my phone by blowing in my headphone jack. (It has nothing to do with water here, phone hasn't been in contact with water!!)

Wow! I remember trying this before but it never worked, now I got out all the dust with a chopstick and I blowed in it really hard and now it's working perfectly.Don't know how long this is gonna last but thank you!
I have sometimes fibre from jeans stuck in the headphone jack and have to use needle to take it out, otherwise headphones aren't detected at all. I almost had a heart attack that the phone is damaged, but it was just debris from a pocket..
You could also try enabling the Smart Connect - Music on the go such that it would auto play the music tracks that you have to mitigate the problem u are facing. Else, try to get a RMA

That wont solve it at all lol. It has nothing to do with software.
I had such a problems. I messed a bit with a screwdriver and I got it fixed, but DON'T do that if you have warranty. I was scared that I almost broke it forever back then but I somehow fixed it and never touched it again.
However, what you can do is to take a needle and on the bottom there might be some dirt from the pocket. Try to take it out.

Luckily not from an iPhone = Yesterdays technology at tomorrows prices
It's most likely software issue. the proof is me. I had same problem. When my Z2 can detect the earphone, I tried to reboot it without unplugging the earphone. Guess what, the earphone is undetected after phone reboot. And unplugging / plugging it again did nothing. There's workaround though, my Xiaomi Piston had button on it, so I pressed the button while plugging the earphone (there're a lot of thread about it here). Then it worked, sound came to the earphone, but the buttons didn't worked (when it works normally, the button works). So I think it's most likely have something to do with the software. If it was hardware issue, then once the earphone detected, a reboot would still make it detected.
It never happened so far on the bundled noise cancellation earphone, always detected, spot on.

Xperia Z2 Call microphone (solution)

Hello,
I do not know that this is in the appropriate forum section, but i want to share with you the solution i found related the microphone in-calls problem (the other call party cannot hear what you are talking).
If you unticked the noise suppression button and the problem persists, find a powerful compressed-air pistol and blow in the phone's bottom 3 holes (the ones over the microphone). Many said it's a hardware problem because it disappeared after they had their microphones replaced. But it disappeared only because within the replacement method the dust/water particles or whatever was stuck in there were cleaned.
CAREFUL: try to no blow the air directly into the holes, blow from an angle!
I tested this solution many times because i've noticed that the problem persists especially if I wash my phone often.
Hope it helps.
Yes, mine disappeared after the board was replaced but it is now back again, only took 1 - 2 months.
I will give this a shot, sounds plausible.
Why do you blow from an angle though? does that somehow allow the dust to come out and not get stuck further in?
Edit: I didn't try this and my microphone is working today so I'm kinda of thinking this is not the problem.

Redmi Note 3 PRO (SD) No Sound/Audio

hi..just bought this phone about 2months, now i'm facing No sound/audio at all, here's some detail and if anyone of you any good hardware repair skills here, i need your help, as i believe100% it's not the software issues:
1. phonecall, on stock MIUI (NoROOT/customkernel,pure officialrom) its freeze/hang when dialling numbers - few second latter its rebooted itself. voice recording app won't work can't use the app as its error pop-up said, and sometimes i need to hard restart to use the phone again. and its gime bootloop and drained battery (4000mah cannot even survived for 7hour), even with no internet connections the battery still drain fast.
2. when someone calling me,there's no ringtones, even when i answering the call there's no sound at all, no musics sound, any audio files i play only hisssing/noise sounds i can hear just like feedback sound.
3. Unlocking Bootloader, replacing other rom the sounds completely disapear, no hissing,noise at all (CM,Mokee) and still phone app freeze/hang when i try make a phonecall,(reboot/hardreset)the only solution to make the phone back in usable state.
4. installing Citrus ROM, the sounds back but only hissing/noise sound on sometimes i can here the sound with some feedback issues. phone app works i can make a call without freeze/hang,no reboots, but i can't totally hear someone talk to me at all, but when i turn on the loudspeaker i can hear someone talk to me (with some annoying feedback sounds),
5. as i bricked it once and need to reach testpoint so i believe its not under warranty, seal already broken.
6.ordering the parts, connector charging board(which contain whole set new audio i guess hope can fix the issues, but just noticed that if that's part causing the no sound issues, its only fix the audio such as music,ringtones..not the front speaker(phone related still not repairable)
7. trying contact some friends which some understand about hardware told me, i break down the IC Audio so its imposible to repair/change that part since its directly micro-soldered to the mainboard.
anyone have same problem as mine?, or some of you have solutions for my problem please reply .thanks
My RN3P has 2 weeks and today also was no audio to the rear speaker(ear works and using headphones also), he had no kind of fall, spent most of the day inside my pocket, taking only a few pictures, coming home I realized I had no more sound in the rear speaker any solutions?

Same problem as mine.
Even the video recording do not work too.
Is there any solution how to fix it?
I use it as ipa/od without ability to make / receives any phone call, so many ppl has the same problem here seems was Xiaomi's bad hardware components, which mine believes caused by sudden-removal audio/aux jack while its still playing the musics
anyone know the average price to fix the sound ic compared to the phone? maybe 10%, 25%, 50%, or above the price of the new units?
I have the same problem,, could any one tell me where I can buy the hardware (IC sound).
Plz tell me solution. My mobile mi note 3 audio problem, audio only listen Bluetooth.

Redmi NOTE3
I need audio IC for Redmi NOTE3 we're can I buy
hello.it is an old topic. i hope it be useful for anybody else. a few days ago My redmi note 3 pro kenzo was damaged by water. after that when I turned it on, logo of my custom ROM was appear and boot loop ... First I think it was for ROM or kernel. I installed another ROM with other kernels. I could turned on my phone and enter to user interface. but everything that was related to sound ( like : camera-music-call-headphone,... ) was not work at all. I searched a lot. I found out the problem is for Audio IC (WCD9306 Audio IC) this model. https://www.deviceparts.com/wcd9306-audio-ic-for-xiaomi-redmi-note-3-ori.html
it is used in Samsung mobile phone like S4. however you can buy it. but the main problem you can't change it by your own without tools . if you are familiar with hardware it could be useful: http://www.u2ugsm.com/blog/xiaomi-redmi-note-3-ringer-solution-jumper-problem-ways/
I think cleaning IC with cleaner or alcohol might be useful. good luck
Edit: After 4 hours I turned it on and sound is back! I just cleaned it by alcohol and cleaner. but I made mistake. a little bit of that alcohol-water liquid is entered in my LCD screen. I put it in warm place and hope it will get better.
