[HELP] Answering Call - Random No Mic

Hi all,
I have this annoying intermittent bug with my nexus one. This 'bug' does not seem to ROM or Baseband specific.
5 times out of 10 I answer my phone (without using a headset of any type) and I can hear the caller but the caller cannot hear me.
This was happening to me on all cyanogen 5.0.6.xxx ROMS. I have played around with different base bands but nothing fixed the issue until I flashed the first froyo ROM from Modaco's Paul O'Brien. Being a bundled flash with ROM and baseband it completely fixed the symptom.
I have now moved to the latest djmcnz kang-0-rama ROM and the symptom as reappeared.
I haven't pushed the froyo baseband onto the device again yet, as I suspect I am going to fall into the hole as I was in while using cyanogen.
Now before being flamed and told 'TRY SEARCHING" etc I have searched the entire Nexus One Forum using these key words - call,answer,mic,receive and I have also tried short statements like - no mic answering call etc... I got a couple of hits with people suffering the same symptom and no resolution.
Does anyone have any advice or able to assist constructively with my issue?
thanks in advanced all
Matt

i've had this before but it hasn't happened since i stopped using taskiller so i'm assuming i was killing something required here.

Hey thanks for your reply. Unfortunately I do not have task killer installed.

So I am now on the latest djmcnz release and I have flashed the froyo radio img via fastboot again but I am still getting this no mic on answering calls, probably 60% of the time...
Does anyone have a resolution? Or maybe some other steps I can take to resolve the issue. I have used search a number of times but cannot find a fix.
Any help would be appreciated.
best regards
Matt

Unless I can find a fix for this mic problem I am going to have to flash back to Paul's original 2.2 release with the radio included.
I have found threads explaining to disable the second "noise cancellation" mic. I don't see the point, why should I have to disable a key feature?
I am going to test the hardware using recording software and see if that makes any difference before giving up and flash back to Paul's ROM and giving up on this HELP request.
TIA
Matt

I started getting this problem again on cm 508, now I am using FRF91 and this problem still occurs about 90% of the time I answer a call.
No issues when I make a call yet but it has happened previously on other roms.

behelit - thanks once again for describing another issue with the inbuilt microphones.
If other members have had issue's with the dual inbuilt microphones would you mind just taking the time to say hi and describe your scenario?
-===only for the mature enough to be constructive===--===NO SPAM===-​
I just noticed that I don't have SP1 and SP2 installed from the latest djmcnz 2.2 "full" release. Looking at the change log's I don't see anything that could help this issue. Time will tell.
TIA

not sure what you meant there but what kind of lock screen do you use? and what case do you use?

Um lock screen is just the default Froyo. Case? I use the N1 case that came with the phone...
Is that what you talking about?

OK,
I have installed 'upgraded' and now sitting on Kang-o-rama 0.9 Final SP2.
I am still experiencing the no mic "caller cannot hear me, i can hear them" issue.
A reboot does seem to temporarily fix the problem. A few calls later the mic starts to fail again.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
TIA

For me the mic fails to work in mid-call, sometimes for about 7 seconds. At times they wont even work till i redial again. It's fustrating as heck when you're talking and you dont know when you're cut off till the other person goes "hello?" and the both of you will be yelling into the phone till the mic works again.
Phone info :
ROM - Kang-O-Rama 0.9 SP2 (Installed Lite KOR upgraded to SP2)
Kernel - Intersect Raven's Kernel CFS
Baseband/Radio - 32.36.00.28U_4.06.00.12_7
Background apps running(most of the time) - UltimateJuice for Root
Taskkillers running/installed? - no
Edit : I'd like to add that, prior to installing the 2.2 ROM(s) i had no issues with the phone mic acting the way it is now. And even when i tried flashing MoDaCo's Desire rom port with the old radio, i still encounter the mic issues. 2.2 broke my mic :<
Edit 2 : Matt, what kernel are you using? I might be going out on a limb here, but it might be related to the kernel?

Just giving this another bump hopefully someone can lend a hand

OK,
I am about to move back to cyanogen. I have ROM, radio and new addon pack.
I am going to completely wipe my device as always and see if I can get some stability back with my microphone.
With 350 views on the thread I am sure this is a problem others are facing. If I am completely blind and have missed a post about the same topic somewhere else, can some kind soul please point me in the right direction..
TIA

I think i found the culprit for my phone issue..
Standard phone posture
Pinkie slips and covers mic
Sometimes, when i talk too long, my pinkie slips and covers the main mic. Then all sounds are considered background noise thus get silenced by the secondary mic.
Edit: this is also caused by user trying to support the bottom of the phone to prevent the phone from dropping, but covering the main mic at the same time
I hope this is what caused it.
to replicate the problem, just talk with a friend/family, and halfway through your sentence, just lightly cover the mic hole at the bottom and your side will be muted entirely

Thats funny, luckily I'm not left handed. More importantly I don't suffer from ID_10_T syndrome.

i sure hope that was the problem though, or the noise cancellation acting haywire

Loosing data when the phone goes into sleep mode

Hi, I 'm facing this problem for a long time, I haven't found any solution yet.
When the phone is awake, everything goes well, I can surf, send and receive whatsapps, etc, whenever I want.
After I lock it and it goes into sleep state, I still can receive whatsapps for about 5-10 minutes. But after that I no longer receive anything.
Sometimes I receive them an hour later after they were sent.
After that, when I unlock the phone, it always shows the network data icon, enabled and active , but when I try to surf or chat, 95% of times, I don't have internet, it stays loading forever, until I disable and re-enable the data.
Of course, after this , I installed an app to check my network traffic, called "network monitor mini".
When this error happens, I have 0 bytes being transferred, whatever I do or open, nothing is able to communicate over internet, until I reset the data and it works again.
This happens to me in all roms, LG stock, Zeus and also CM7.
Is anybody having this issues too? Or how to fix it, check the causes or wtf is happening there?
For now I have been unlocking the phone every 15-20 minutes and checking if it has data conection.
Thanks

Maybe its a good thing to wipe everything with smartflash tool and then installing the custom rom, to ensure that everything is erased.
Who knows, I'll try it in a while...

good luck

That happen to me a few times, but its wierd cause sometimes it goes into a really deep sleep i.e. downloading something from market and phone locks itself, after a while I unlock it and "downloading %" is the same when it locked [wifi is set to "always on" of course]...
The rest of the time is ok, which is almost all the time, actually I haven't had that issues from a few months ago... BTW I'm now using supressedV7

I've got the exact same problem. I initially had it with stock rom, then I changed to zeus and had it there as well.
However I stuck with Zeus and the problem went away after a few of his updates.
I received SODs with Zeus though so I changed to Suppressed ROM and then the data problem was back.
I'm now on rooted stock V20G, but I haven't had a chance to test the data yet.

I had it before too with all roms except lemmings then with boype cm7 it seemed like it went away too until two days ago .... sigh... sometimes I just leave the wifi on and that seems to help abit...
just sayin....

Ok right now I'm trying out this app "3g connection fixer" from the market. It automatically restarts the 3g connection when it detects a problem. Seems to be working well so far. I don't see any actions from the app but I am keeping my connection better since 8pm last night. Might be worth a shot
-----------------
Update 27082012
Ok the connection fixer app was a hit and miss for me, now I'm using this cooltool from market seems to be better, no doubt the app seems unrelated to the problem but I believe the loss in connection is due to radio going into deep sleep and not being able to wake up promptly. This app runs in the background and somewhat prevents that from happening I think..... of course that's just my assumption, but my data and phone seems to be running well after installing this app since 2 days ago..... and it also has a cool floating widget that moves (see screenshot)

Hey, what was this new app you are using. My problem still persists

Its called cool tool from the market another one you could try is wakelock from darken both help me with my problem but it still does happen sometimes
just sayin....

I also had that problem sometimes. You should change the title to "data connection" not only data, cause this sounds a bit confusing. But what ROM are you using/are you sure, it happens in all? Maybe it's one of the build.prop or other "tweaks" that cause the problem... Try to flash only stock with root and see if it also happens there. I dont have the problem currently, with my own selfmade ROM, without any of those "tweaks"...

With stock its fine also with lemmings and Zeus up till v4ish I think (when huexx ) implemented the toggles with boype it happens too but alot less

Mind sharing your rom so I can try the data connection thing

It's not really a new ROM, I just flashed the v20s European version, injected CWM, flashed superuser.zip, uninstalled some apk's I dont need, added supercharger. I simply didnt use any so called "Tweaks" since they often seem to bring more problems (at least in my opinion), than they actually bring of advantage... I mean LG doesnt use those tweaks for a reason what that reason is? I dont know, but probably incompatibility with some user behaviour or some networks/phones. That's why I am on stock GB, till we get ICS, cause I need a reliable phone.

Yeah I probably should do the same too....

It might be network related because it happens with different ROM's, and most probably it's about the fast dormancy thing.
Don't blame the "good ol' phone" for nothing.

I still have the problem with stock ROM and I have tried different SIM cards. I have now sent the phone back to LG and we will see what solution they come up with...

[KERNEL-DEV][WI-FI FIX][ARP Offloading][Push Notifications][19 June][UPDATED]

The issue???
With all current kernels I and many other have been receiving delays in receiving notifications, in both screen on and off from 15mins to 2hours. Google should have released at least a minor update to fix this issue but they haven't and it bothers me.
As the title states I've worked on fixing WiFi and notification issues, its hasn't gone under mass testing so that's why I've created this thread for it, i have personally tested my device goes into sleep/deep sleep and i can ping the device when its in deep sleep, push notifications also work instantaneously I've received them within seconds
This should be used with Stock Android or Close to Stock e.g. AOSPA, Running on ROMS like MIUI will not work (tested)
Recommendations:
.54 Radio located here:
Push Notification Fixer (PNF Found in Play Store):
Installation:
1. Download this fix: Flashable zip wifi fix
Download: http://db.tt/NuQq7kk3
2. Download .54 radio:
3. Install Push Notification Fixer from Playstore:
4. Reboot into recovery
5. Flash zips in this order, radio, wifi fix, wipe cache & dalvik cache
6. Reboot into OS
Test for you:
1.Does my Device sleep?, let it sit for 10 minutes (device usually deepsleeps within 5 mins, allow your device to sit for 10mins)
3. Can you ping the device while its in deepsleep?
4. Any wakelocks showing? Mainly is there a suspend wakelock?
Once this has been tested ill push out another update, thank you!
Current issues:
On some devices suspend wakelock (Should be fixed)
Very rare occasion, 3/4 packets successfully received (packet lost while pinging)
Heartbeat interval can possibly be improved (haven't checked yet)
Ping to device when in deepsleep can be upto 1200ms which is too long for my opinion should be

Note to everyone: sooner i get results from more people, the sooner I can release the fix/ work on it quicker
Thank you @faux123 for your kernel base
Thanks to motley for his kernel base (wheres the dude gone?)

Phone not sleeping. Tested in 3 different APs.
I don't wan't to be rude but what exactly are the Technical stuff that you've changed here? Sure you can say wifi but what part? Firmware? Drivers? If you just said that people won't be bashing your thread.

Changes in kernel, which ive already stated in thremcins hsic wakelock thread
Source code releasing within next few days
Sleeping like a baby

Hi,
I just tried it and my phone is not sleeping at all either. Why is it so hard for you to release the source code? This is quite suspicious to be honest.
I mean you say you want to release it within the next few days - lulz, why not now? Will anything change until then? I guess not.
I repeat: This is _NOT_ meant rude and I don't want to start a flame war.

They say seeing is believing id like screenshots of no deepsleep, release within the next few dayz as i have 2-3 kernels for testing, if alot of people do not get deepsleep then ill output another kernel, the point is to fix n release code, i have 2-3 kernels 1 of them will work for sure for people that cannot achieve deepsleep

Also my name is on that kernel like 100 times so i need to go through it n clean off comments
Edit: test this on stock ROM or Paranoid ROM, highly recommended, god knows whats causing the wakelock
And always provide screenshots

sorry for the question...but what is the point of this kernel?
i don't have a lot of time to lurk all topics, if someone can explain me why faux kernel need a wifi fix and what version of kernel has this problem (i'm not up to dated)...i'd be very grateful.
thx

All kernels have an issue with wifi, basically i have always recieved notifications late with both screen on and off from 15-mins to 60-mins, what i have done is fix this issue, some people reporting no deepsleep, me + few others have reported device sleeping and notifications on time. I chose faux kernel as his has a defconfig, didnt continue to test with francos hos doesnt include a defconfig making the source code uncompilable, this thread is here to fix and test wifi cuz i got tired of recieving late notifications

yea its sleeping and iam getting notification right away i stand corrected

Ok, latest update, fresh CM install, standard WiFi network I use (which never causes suspend_backoff on a kernel with my other notification solution). I think the screenshots speak for themselves.
Side Note: When I added another SSID to my network and blocked all internal and external multicast/broadcast traffic I did get some deep sleep but that's not a solution to the problem since most people wouldn't have access to do this nor would they want to if they could. I can also get the device to deep sleep on 3G/4G.
I remain skeptical that this fix works.

Just flashed this without having any trouble during the process until I powered off afterwards - or, attempted to. It hung on the power off screen, so I had to hold down the power button in order to turn it off. After I booted up again, Google Play Store crashed. I managed to get it to work long enough to install a few other apps (Textra, Lookout, Themer, and Dashclock) by disabling the Play Store app and then opening it. Whenever I tried to open these apps, they crashed upon opening and the app icon changed to the Android bot icon instead of the app's normal icon and the package name instead of the app name. After the first downloaded app crashed, then I got an error that Google Play Store crashed, and its icon changed the same way. I then attempted a factory reset within the ROM, but it hung on the power off screen. I held the power button again, booted back up, and it looks like all the preinstalled apps work except Play Store. When I try to test SuperSU, it says that Play Store has stopped and does not load a list of apps. Now, Google Now is saying that I "need Google Play Services, which is not supported by your device." Any idea what went wrong?

Had a similar problem, my mistake was not to follow the procedure EXACTLY as stated. It turns out that I did not wiped everything except from what's in the sd card, did that and boom! A nice ROM to play with. Give it a try.

I might give it a try again, but I know for a fact that I performed the wipe correctly.

Please, do tell how it went.

Worked this time! Thanks for your help!

Works great but have quite poor battery life, refuses to go into deep sleep.
msm-hsic-host wakelock, horrible wakelock pins the cpu 384 mhz min.
bugs ive found-
using the cast screen button renders a blank screen to my chrome cast.

Yup, battery life is pretty crappy. But had a similar battery life with stock NE3 firmware. In a couple of weeks I'll be getting a new battery. Bought my phone from eBay and it came with a used one, I'm just guessing at the moment.

I lost 30% overnight but this morning changed some wifi settings and loaded up betterbatterystats to see what's causing the wakelocks. Maybe it's something straightforward. I like the aosp a lot and going to try and make this rom work as a daily driver.
I'll post any findings or improvements.

If possible go to the "raw info" in bbs, and check out your kernel wake locks, as far as the software went on this rom I saw no serious wakelocks, but when I switched to kernel view that's where the problem was. I lost all 80% over a period of ten hours while sleeping the other day. Thats with nothing installed but what came with the rom.

Yep, same here. Phone never enters deep sleep. After about 3 hours lost 10% of battery. 80% of the partial wakelocks were msm_hsic_host wakes.

I think the issue has to do with the wifi. Even though wifi is set to be off when the screen's off, betterbatterystats shows the wifi is on 100% of the time. This makes some sense since there appears to be an issue with the wifi driver where after a full reboot my wifi won't work until I do a hotboot. This happens for everyone else right?
I will try and look into the wifi fix that was part of the masterpatch and see if that provides any fixes.

This is a known issue on the S4 Active as discussed here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2412645
Flashing the file labeled "S4 Active Speaker Phone Fix" aka "S4_Active_Call_Record_Fix.zip" fixed this issue for me.
ChristopherXDA, it appears you were involved in the original fix!
Joe-Tech, you may want to incorporate the zip's changes to the sound configs in /system/etc/snd_soc_msm into your next S4 Active build.

Ha, oh man thats a little embarassing. You're right, that fix works on this Rom too.
I tried some of the other fixes though like for Wi-Fi in the masterpatch and that doesn't work on this rom.

The rom is generally problem free. Aside from the battery life, it's quite solid. Both of his nexus style roms have this msm_hsic_host wakelock problem (I've tested the GE S4 rom). He is aware of this issue. Unfortunately, he has had some personal things happen lately, so he's not available to work on the rom. Family comes first.
Also, I recently test DS Battery Saver from the Play Store. Even on its most aggressive battery saving mode, deep sleep was never entered. So, don't bother.

Tmobile Oreo out now!

Just got the update message!

I look on tmobile official page and there was no mention of oreo update of this phone. I looked at this webpage https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-35970
Can you post your screenshot?

It is indeed live. I have Oreo on one device, trying to go back to stock on my second device and re-root.

For my device (on 26.7), it says it's up to date. They're rolling the update in waves.

Woooahhh..... Can we get a flashable zip file for it?

Posted the oto zip in rom section

same here, nothing, and when checking on T-Mobile page, it says it is still on the testing phase=(

TmoNews reports it's being released in waves. I'm sure we'll get it over the next couple days, but I'm impatient and spoiled since I've been on iPhone for the last few years.

For the uninitiated and those who just forgot, is there a dead simple way to install the firmware on a stock T-Mobile Z2 Force using a microSD card, or does it need to be done through ADB? I've already downloaded both files (the 900MB really long filename and the 2.3GB zip file) from the other thread.

Well, I just received the Oreo Update on my TMO Moto Z2 Force and now no one can hear me during phone calls. Phone was working perfectly until Oreo installed and my phone rebooted. Going to try and wipe cache in Recovery to see it that does anything. I wouldn't be too anxious to update until a few peeps have chimed in.
Update: I was able to get my phone to work correctly, but only after completely disabling WiFi Calling. It seems something has broken in regards to WiFi calling. I have tried everything I can think of to get it to work with that option active. I don't use WiFi calling anyways, so no big deal for me, but still should not have happened to begin with.

To be honest, I haven't talked to anyone yet. But my stand by at night went from a 9 percent drain to about 3 percent. I haven't encountered any issues yet. I'm hoping it got rid of the audio hissing mine had sometimes and random audio anomalies in YouTube.

No fair

I have not rooted or anything. I had the update two days ago. Everything works fine with me. WiFi calling no problem.

Those were spin lock errors in the audio driver that were fixed in kernel upstream of 4.4.72-76 so it should have those fixes since it is 4.4.78.
It will still have some of the ipv6 latency spikes that randomly happen on web pages unless Moto cherry picked those net fixes from 4.4.97-106

The audio issues are somewhat solved. If the YouTube video is in the background, it's fine. But the audio hissing is still present if I'm watching the video. It's only in YouTube. I'm considering buying the Google usb c audio adapter to see if it's an issue with the proprietary moto audio protocol.

I assume no. But to find the answer i think you should post in the oreo thread with the question. Few people have flashed orea on their phones so they should be able to answer your question.

So funny story... I own two of these tmobile devices... one stock, one unlocked and rooted. My stock device is still on august security patch and isnt receiving ota updates at all. So I called tech support cuz something is obviously wrong. first, they couldn't comprehend that I was talking about ANY update and not just Oreo... I haven't received OCT or Nov patches even... Then, since they were stuck on oreo what was interesting as the tech support people at Tmobile say that the latest release for our phone is 7.1.1 August patch... which we all know is wrong for several reasons. Needless to say I am not impressed with their tech department...

My standby drain has been the opposite. It's a little worse for me that in 7.1. I went from about 1-2%/hr in standby to around 5%/hr in standby. I've been off the charger for a little over 3 hours today with just 9 minutes of SoT and I'm at 86%. I'm not complaining, it's not bad, but before it was spectacular. Now it's just average.

I'm usually on wifi, that is my usual use scenario. I get around, no joke about 6 hours plus sot. As for my audio issues are still prevalent and now my netflix is a black screen all the time. But overall I'm still happy with the update. If I turn on power saver my standby time tanks lol. I think it turns off my wifi and tries to hold on to my one or two signal bars. I'm debating unlocking bl and rooting, but I really haven't felt a need. I'm probably alot more forgiving of the z2 issues due to I picked it up at 375.

Got mine
