Hi guys!
Sorry if my english it's not very good, im from Argentina

I have a Moto X with retail brasi kit kat 4.4.4
I started noticing that the mic's volume is reeeeeeeeeally low..
With a needle i've tried to clean de hole on the bottom of the screen but it did not work

Does anyone have a solution that actualy works?
Is there a soft or hard issue?

Thanks a lot!

I get this too. I've had 3 Moto X and they all have had this happen. It's the mic getting plugged up with dust/fuzz/skin and any other funky stuff. Cleaning it will help a little bit but it gets to a point where the mic is just unusable. I'm not really sure what to do with mine aside from tearing the phone apart and cleaning it.
