Loss of Mic Audio during Skype Call

I currently have a Nexus 6 Android 5.0.1 and at about one minute into a Skype call the other party looses audio from me - I have tried all the normal repairs - remove then reboot and reinstall Skype - remove any conflicting applications, etc. However after noticing similar complaints from Tablets I presume this is a bug in the current version of Skype for Android.
Anyone have a suggestion?

Sadly, I've been experiencing this problem for 2 years now. Here's the link to my original post:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Android-archive/Mic-and-Speakerphone-stop-working-mid-conversation/m-p...
I have the same issue when calling with Skype using my Android Nexus 4, which has the latest versions of the Android OS (5.0.1) and Skype (5.1.0.58677).
The only workaround that I've found, and it's not really a solution, is to use the Skype app for Windows (desktop) when possible, and avoid calling from my Android phone.
Hopefully, the people at Skype can address this issue, since it's been a long-standing issue.

USB headset drops audio input during Skype call

I just bought a new iMac. When I initiate a Skype call using the H650e, almost immediately after the call connects the H650e loses audio input. I speak into the mic but the person I'm speaking with can't hear me. When I open the audio preference pane, I see that the H650e is selected as the input device, but the levels are not registering when I speak.
This problem is reproducible; it happens every time I use the microphone with Skype on the iMac. However, it does not happen when I use it with Skype on my Macbook Air.
That suggests the problem might be with the iMac, but Apple is claiming they can't help because it's a non-Apple product. Logitech claims they can't help since the headset works with the Macbook Air. And Skype claims the same.
What now?

fyi ....
i ran a quick repair permissions with disk utility and the problem seems to have sorted itself out. on further thought i think this started to happen after i downloaded the latest s/w update from apple - i recall a whole bundle of fixes to various powerpc issues...maybe something here upset the balance.

IPhone 4s-ios6-purple haze coming during skype call

I'm using iPhone 4s. After ios6 update a purple haze is coming in the picture when doing a skype call. In ios5 this issue was not there.

I do not have this issue on my phone. I have a iPhone 4s as well.
That's pretty incredible. Try seeing if you can see a remote control flashing purple. If you can, you've got an issue with your front camera allowing NIR into your camera sensor.. There is a really easy way to solve this fortunately.

Audio not working during Skype call

Last night I was in a group call with some people and my audio worked perfectly fine, when I got home from work today and tried to get in a call none of the chat audio works. Before anyone says anything my drivers are current and I have the correct audio outputs selected, all the sounds except the call audio work. I have tried reupdating drivers, running dxdiag.exe, and even trying headphones and switching audio devices.

No audio during phone calls unless using speaker phone or headset

My husband switched to the Galaxy Nexus a few days ago. All went well until he tried to make a phone call. The audio occasionallyworks both ways during a phone call, but more often it doesn't work at all (either way) or cuts out in the middle of the call. We have tried booting in safe mode to rule out interference from other apps, but the problem persisted. When the audio isn't working, all other sound on the phone works fine. It's only when placing a phone call without speaker phone or headset. There is no sound at all - no ringing, no dial tone, nothing in either direction. I installed a sound manager app last night and all was well until this morning. He did plug in earbuds this morning, and the audio problem returned after he unplugged them. I'm not sure whether the earbuds are contributing to the problem, but I thought I'd mention it. He uses them a lot. Any ideas?

Same problem here. My phone worked great for a week then this problem occurred. After searching XDA Developers, one of the members there came up with an app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.woodslink.android.wiredheadphoneroutingfix
Not a perfect solution, but does work. I have Emailed with the developer and has helped with any issues that pop up. I suggest the paid version, small price to pay but worth it to make the phone work again.
It would be nice if Verizon/Google actually cared about this issue.

Very bad mic quality during VoIP calls

I tested Skype and Viber but the app doesn't matter. My conversationalist hear me very, very bad: there are crackle, sometimes he nothing hear or hear very quiet. Simply he he can understand every other my word.
I've got very good conection quality from Wi-Fi, conversationalist also. He talks with other people on Skype and he doesn't have any problems with them.

Do you have a case on your phone? Try removing it and see if call quality improves.

Internet not working while on skype call

Greetings everyone
I'm having this..specific problem for the past few days during Skype calls. Whenever I'm in a call with my friends, my intertnet completely stops working. I'm unable to browse it at all, as well as send and receive messages on Skype. Voice communication works fine, however, nothing else works properly. Or at all.
I've tried to change my DNS to the google public dns, and that didn't help at all. I also tried to manually set up my connection, rather than automatic - didn't help either. I messed around with some Skype options as well and nope, didn't help either. I've also tried flushing the dns and all of that it didn't help.
This ONLY happens when I'm in a Skype call - as soon as I turn off the skype call everything works as it's supposed to work..however, once I get back into the call it stops working, which is a big problem for me.
I also tried to disable my AVG AV and it didn't help either..Skype is also added in firewall as well.
I honestly have no idea what to do anymore regarding this.
Any help would be appreciated.

If your celluar carrier is using CDMA cellular technology (for example: Sprint, Verizon), then on 3G networks CDMA cannot "Walk and Chew Gum" at the same time. I am not sure at LTE for CDMA carriers. If you your cellular carrier is using GSM (AT&T, T-Moble, and most, but not all, carriers outside the US), then you should be able to use data and voice at the same time.

There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

Audio during calls

Hi, For the last few days (thinking about it, since I updated to iOS 6.0.1) I have been having a problem with the audio during calls. The sound keeps cutting out intermittently, so it sounds like I only hear every other word from the person I'm talking to. It only seems to happen when I call someone, not when I receive calls. Any advice would be helpful, thank you x

Helix Skype Calls Have Poor Voice From Helix Mic

When on Skype calls, the person on the other side barely hears the voice of the person talking on the Helix. Using skype on any other device results in much clearer voice to the recipient. Tried changing the microphone settings by increasing mic volume and switching between normal and group modes but the quality is always bad.
Also noticed that this is not a problem with Skype only but with voice recorder as well. The recording playback always has background noise (even though there is no background noise when recording) which makes the recordings useless.
Please help in resolving this.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi,
This KB is for a different OS, but perhaps the same applies. I had a similar problem with Skype and the recorder until I turned off all enhancements.

Importing a recorded Skype call into Premiere Pro & audio goes out of sync. PLEASE help!

Every time I try and import a clip it gets out of sync, but if I open the file in quicktime its perfect???

(Not sure why this response was originally rejected by the moderators, but am trying again.)
A solution that worked for us:
[EDIT] I do NOT work for any of the companies included in this solution, nor do I receive any kind of renumeration from them. I am recording the software and steps we used to overcome the problem of the original poster.[END EDIT]
The Skype Call Recorder (Ecamm) has 4 built-in converter/splitter apps (you have to look in the "Movie Files" folder to find them). We used the apps to split the recorded Skype video calls into 2 separate "conversations" and then used a free online converter (http://www.online-convert.com/) to convert the conversations into MP4s. Once the MP4s were imported into Adobe Premiere the audio lined up perfectly with the video.
Hope this helps somebody.
