Microphone not working...people cant hear me

My microphone seems to have stopped working.  No one can hear me on the other end....doesn't matter whether I make the outgoing call or one comes in.

I am having the same problem (only instead of dropping my phone I just did the update )  My mic works when using other apps such as the voice memo but on phone calls, while I can hear the other person, they can't hear me.  I did full reset (erased all content and settings) and then resynced.  The mic worked for the first two or three calls, and then stopped working again.  Really don't want to have to do that kind of reset every other day or so.  Still trying to find an actual fix.

  • TS3367 facetime microphone not working. i can hear the recieiver but they can't hear me. can hear if i talk directly into the microphone by turning the ipad round to the back, then the receiver can't see me!!!!!!

    the microphone on my ipad does not work for facetime. The person I am facetiming can see, but not hear me. if I go to the back of the ipad and speak directly into the microphone, they can hear, but obviously not see , as I'm at the back. HELP ! I CAN SEE AND HEAR THEM.

    I saw one post where a user said dust got in the small mic hole. Used a vacuum cleaner to remove and audio restored. Try it.

  • On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when on calls using internet based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. Voice memos work too and have already tried different SIMs

    On my iPhone 4, people cant hear me when I make and / or receive normal (GSM) phone calls. But when I make/receive calls using internet-based / native apps like viber or skype, people can hear me just fine. I have tried recording my voice using voice memos - this works. And have already tried different SIM cards but the problem persists.
    I have taken my phone to an authorized Apple service center, where they restored my phone to factory settings, but still facing the same issue. They service center directed me to Apple Customer Care Hotline, where I have now spent 3+ hours explaining my issue and yet no one can resolve it. The easy answer if to replace the phone - and since it is out of warranty, I am expected to pay for it.
    Additionally, the customer service has been so rude and confrontational that it has completely changed my view of Apple and its customer focus. I am a disappointed and angry customer today - people would be surprised to hear just how rude customer service was including making statements such as "Apple doesnt make infallible products, that's why warranty is needed for our products" and that "every product undergoes a problem at some stage, so do ours!" There goes whatever confidence I had...
    My concern is simple - if no one at Apple and / or its CS hotline is able to address my issue comprhensively and keep telling me that they have never encountered a precedent before, then with what right can they expect me to pay for a replacement?! I am NOT here to fund Apple's research into their product faults and manufacturing.
    And even though a customer is out of warranty, is it too much to expect an Apple product to work well for at least a 'reasonable' period of time. My phone is less than 18 months old and has been facing this issue for the past 2 months - surely the longevity of Apple products is more than 18 months!
    Just a sad sad day for an Apple customer, compounded by unjustifiably rude and aggressive staff. And still no resolution to my problem.

    I am having the same issue - with my last 2 iPhone 4's. My first handset each time I was on a call wether it was up to my ear or on loud speaker, the call would automatically mute even though the mute button wouldn't show up as highlighted. Pressing the mute button on and off during the call doesn't fix it either. I rang Apple and asked what some of their trouble shooting solutions were. I got told that it might be a software issue and to install the latest software update. This failed. I then got told to uninstall the software on the phone and do a complete restore. This also failed. After trying the troubleshooting suggestions, I took the phone into my provider and they sent me out a new phone within a week under warranty claiming it was a hardware issue and probably just a "glitch" with that particular phone. This was not the case....
    After receiving my second iPhone 4, I was hopeful that it would work. For the first couple of days, making/receiving calls was not an issue. Until after about a week, the same problem started again. In one instance I had to hang up and call back 4 times and the call would still automatically mute after about 5 seconds. Also on the second handset, the main camera located on the back of the phone has red and blue lines running through it and can't take a decent picture. So back to the store I go to get another replacement - Again.
    For a phone that is rated highly and as a keen Apple product purchaser, I am a bit disappointed with the experience I have had with the iPhone 4. Let's hope they find a fix sometime soon because this is becoming a bit beyond a joke.....!!

  • Microphone not working Windows 10

    I have an Asus GL551 series laptop and I just upgraded to Windows 10. I have all updated drivers and I use Realtek HD Audio Manager. My microphone works except when on Skype, which before upgrading I had no issues. The microphone is working but the gain is very low, but my mic works fine on Google Hangouts, and other applications. I was able to fix it by going into control panel-communications-then set communication activity to "do nothing" when it was previously set to "reduce the volume of other sounds by 80%." It worked for a minute, but then the person on the other end couldn't hear me anymore. The settings were still the same from when I changed them. I've tried configuring my microphone, changing the boost, not having Skype automatically adjust microphone settings, uninstalling and reinstalling drivers, and Skype. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  • Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Sighhhh, wasted so much time yesterday and today going around Sony centre and then carphone warehouse. They told me to come back after Easter.
    I came home, banged the phone against the wall and it worked.
    Turned out that mic was working on loud speaker and when using headphones so I thought that the secondary mic is working and the main one (placed with the speakers) isn't. So I banged that part against the wall slightly (in plastic case to prevent scratches) then put the phone underwater, waited for it to dry and now it's working. Idk how well and if it's of perfect quality again but people can hear me well.

  • SBH52 Built-In Microphone not working

    Hi, I bought an SBH52 for my Xperia Z2 2 months back. I've been able to pair the handset with my phone successfuly and everything works fine except the microphone. When I make calls using the handset, the receiver cannot hear my voice at all. Whether I'm using headphones or not, they just cant hear me. I can hear them just fine, I can play music, use the FM radio but cannot make calls and be heard.
    Could someone please help?
    Thanks

    Even I am experiencing the same issue since last 4 days. I use this regularly and even when I am at the gym. I am just wondering if at all sweating has caused the microphone to malfunction. Its says that its spash proof. Expecting a response as its just been 60 days since i bought this.

  • Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype.

    Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype. 
    Microphone works fine with Quictime on another mac, so I do know how to use it. The one where it is not working (A) had an external microphone and camera attached earlier, and indeed it does work with that external microphone, but not with the internal microphone selected; and (B) had RealPlayer installed previously.
    Any suggestions, please?

  • HT6154 people cant hear me on a call on my iphone 6

    people cant hear me when im on the phone. my side cuts off.

    Hello Bailey5071,
    So if people cannot hear you, then I would try out the steps in the article below to test it out to help isolate the issue with the microphone on your iPhone. You may also want to try with a headset or on speaker phone as well. 
    If your voice is too faint or sounds unclear using iPhone, or iPod touch
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
    Follow these steps, testing after each with Voice Memos.
    Unplug anything plugged into the headset jack.
    If you're on a call and holding your phone next to your ear, speak into the microphone and make sure you don't block it with your fingers or shoulder.
    If you're using a screen protector or case that covers the microphone, remove it. Clear any debris from the microphones.
    Restart your device.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    If you've tried these steps and people still can't hear you well on calls, contact Apple Support.
    Regards,
    -Norm G.

  • Microphone not working on iphone

    Microphone only works when on speaker phone.

    Hi,
    I had the same issue here. bottom microphone not working on my iPhone4. tested an dtried some different apps and came up with the following:
    during voice call: bottom mic not working
    during facetime: YES other side can hear me
    memorecorder: YES sound is recorded
    video: YES sound is recorded
    I've searched around the web and the apple support pages, and found some simple options to be taken to resolve the issue:
    1 clean out the 2nd (noise cancellation) microphone (which is the little pinhole right beside the earphone jack)
    2 restart the device (eliminating virtually all software / app malfunctions)
    3 reset network settings in settings menu (eliminating network issues)
    4 full factory reset on iPhone4 (make sure to back it up properly before) (why should this be the resolution if the restart didn't do it before?).
    5 open up the backside and insert a little piece of cardboard (about 160gr/m2) as per the attached video:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jhWxYTVxe4&feature=related
    6 go to the apple store / make an appointment with the genius bar
    neither 1, 2 nor 3 resolved my issue with the bottom mic during voice calls (I still could hear the other side, they could here nothing, or some static and crackling from my side). as gathered the 4th possiblity would not to make the difference (i got convinced this was more a hardware than software issue), i jumped to option 5.
    AND IT WORKS NOW!!! yippieeeee (what would an iPHONE be if you can't call....)
    all you need is a steady hand, good eyes and a ph00 or ph000 screwdriver.

  • Microphone not working with speakerphone

    I recently purchased a iPhone 4 which is pre-owned.  I soon discovered that the microphone is not working when ever I'm using speakerphone. 
    The microphone works fine otherwise and I can hear the call fine when in speakerphone mode.  The problem is only with the microphone not working while in speakerphone mode.  Based on some initial Google searches, I can see this is a relatively common issue on iPhones (4 & 4s models) but have not seen a way to resolve.  Please help me resolve.

    This may be relevant. I've been getting warnings "Device storage almost full" recently - even though I have an SD card that is almost empty. I suppose the device doesn't know to automatically use that for any downloaded/photos, etc.
    In any case, I made some room, but is it possible that "core" stuff may have been overwritten (obviously some kind of s/w bug if so). How likely would this scenario be? I realize that anything is possible, including a meteor strike - but I was curious whether this is something that is "realitiscally" likely with the current BB OS.
    Also, if I back up my data, do an OS reload, and then restore my data - is there a chance that the problem might come back? (given that the data I will back up now will have "more space" than when the warnings started coming, since I deleted some stuff).
    Thanks again.

  • Internal Webcam and Microphone not working after Screen Fix

    I own a HP Envy Spectre XT Ultrabook, and last week I tried to use the webcam and the microphone for the first time in a few months.
    However I was shocked to find that Skype kept saying that the webcam was not detected. The microphone also could not register any sound.
    Device Manager did not show any imaging devices or the webcamera, even after setting it to view non-present devices.
    A check using msinfo32 did not review the webcamera either, and there were no problem devices.
    Control Panel >> Sound showed that the Internal Microphone using IDT High Definition Audio Codec was enabled and working, however it could not detect any sound. All drivers are checked to be up-to-date.
    I suspect this has something to do with the screen repair last month which a HP on-site technician came down to replace my screen, although I cannot be 100% sure. Although the screen is now working, the technician did not do a good job reassembling the screen - the bottom left corner of the screen cover has not be able to attach properly to the screen. 
    I have gone through my BIOS setup to make sure that there is no webcam disabled.
    I have tried rolling-back and reinstalling the drivers for the microphone but it did not work.
    I have tried uninstalling CyberLink YouCam (laptop preinstalled webcam software).
    Please help, these two components are very important to me as I am going overseas soon. The laptop is still under warranty.

    Hey ajun,
    Thank you very much for the information!
    For troubleshooting your Webcam, I would suggest taking a look at the document Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 7). I would suggest the two options Video does not appear in your webcam software (such as YouCam, Skype, Messenger, ect.), and Webcam is not listed in Device Manager.
    For your internal microphone not working either, please take a look at the document Resolving Microphone and Line-in Problems (Windows 7). From this document, I would suggest following the top two symptoms.
    Please let me know the outcome of these troubleshooting steps.
    Good luck, and have a great day!
