[MODULE] Android Mic Fix

[Nomelas]

ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=none
persist.audio.fluence.voicerec=true  
persist.audio.fluence.speaker=false  
use.voice.path.for.pcm.voip=true

Perfect I just use this and modify the build prompt. What exactly is the issue from? Is one mic dead and needs replacing thus using this work around or is it something separate to that?

 

[Nomelas]

This is a module for magisk. You need to flash that first before flashing this. If you found this thread somehow but don't know what magisk is, I suggest you read up on magisk first. This module modifies the build.prop so you don't need to, and persists through updates.

I'm not sure what the cause is, but it's the same or similar fix that many OPO owners have used.

I love you, really. This finally fixed my microphone issue on my Nexus 6P!

Will this also work on the oneplus 3 and oneplus 3t? I seem to have this mic issue on both 3 and 3t. Thanks.

It's untested but has been reported to work on other phones. There's no harm in trying, if you have issues just remove the module. Let me know if it works.

How does this work? After installing this module I checked the build.prop and it's still the same as before but somehow my mic is now working properly.

It doesn't change the build.prop file, only what value is loaded for the props at system startup. More info here: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/magisk-details-dummies-to-developers-t3473486

Oh that is interesting. So I won't have to modify build.prop everytime I update. Thanks for the explanation.

No worries. That's one of the beautiful selling points of Magisk... If you've clean flashed an update, all you have to do is flash the Magisk zip and your modules and voila! All your mods (build.prop, replacing system sounds, debloating apps, moving apps to system, etc) are already done as soon as you boot up! If you do a dirty update all you probably have to do is flash Magisk again since your modules will still be in /data.

Which mic issue does this fix? I have phone/audio issues not sure if its connected.
Can't play audio sometimes as phone audio profile is active, would this fix that?

This only fixes mic issues, sorry

Hi @Nomelas , I have a OPO.
I've installed the module with Magisk and then I took a look at my build.prop. Nothing seems changed, is it normal?

Run getprop command in terminal. Your actual build.prop isn't updated because of the nature of Magisk.

Ok, with getprop I can see them.
Sorry, it's my first time with Magisk.

Hi, so far I only found "it fixes mic issues". Maybe I'm being selectively blind, but could someone please state which mic issues this fixes?

I'm on HTC one M7 using the last lineage os before it was discontinued for M7, and I do suffer low mic output in calls, and the phone occasionally reboots if I switch speakerphone on during a call (weirdly only when maps is running navigation), but does this have anything to do with those "mic issues"?

Thanks, and please forgive my blindness if it's obvious!

yeah, test it out yourself. It fixes the low volume of your mic in calls.

I tested, but get instant reboot on initiating a call. Switching the module off in magisk made the phone behave normal again. Anything I can do to help track down the cause?

Unfortunately it's only been tested on a few devices. What device are you using?

EDIT: Nevermind, I see in your previous post: HTC one M7 using the last lineage os.

Ah so, I'm not sure what your issue is. It looks to be that because you would get reboots when switching to speakerphone in calls, this fix will only amplify that effect. Unfortunately I don't think I can be of any help to you. I'm sorry :/

I would suggest checking out the HTM M7 sub-forum for support in this case.
