Default Mic suddenly stopped working.

Just want peoples input on this. The mic on my wife's Eris just stopped working recently. Not sure if its just dead or if it could be something else. I've tried flashing multiple roms (xtrsense, worksheds aosp gb, and something else I forget). On one from it worked the first call then nothing. On xtrsense it never worked. I don't want to just leave it at bad mic. Does anyone have suggestions as to other ways I can troubleshoot this problem? Any suggestions would be great. Thanx in advance.

Go back to stock RUU = much simpler to flash Flashback_21v2.

Also be aware that JCase's 1-click root app doesn't seem to be in the market anymore (at least it wasn't the last I checked). If you want to re-root later, but you can find a version in Scary Alien's alternate recovery thread here: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-th...-required.html or do this method: http://androidforums.com/eris-all-th...t-dummies.html

iv had that happen before. the first time it happened to my eris, it was before it was rooted (i think) and i was trying to use voice search but it said "audio error". i then went to androsensor (an app that monitors all sensors, including microphone) and where it normally has the decibels, it said "unavailable" or something to that effect. i gave the mic a few good whacks, killed all tasks, cleared all cache, etc, and it worked fine. that leads me to believe the diaphragm in the mic was physically jammed. the second time was definantly after i rooted it, as it is happening to me right now. when someone calls me, i can hear them, but they cant hear me. im not sure where the problem lies, as on my old moterola rival, i had the same problem, but the voice recorder app worked, so the problem there was things just not talking to each other (no pun intended). i havent gotten around to debugging the problem, as my phone has much more critical issues than that, but if i find a fix, ill let you know.
