Microphone not working at random times, exclusively on whatsapp/telegram/instagram audios

Sirin0 — Sun, 04 Feb 2024 22:44:36 GMT

I've had this issue since the latesf update. I have a Samsung A54, bought not even a year ago.

I know it isn't a hardware thing because it's clean, new, never fell nor got wet, I don't smoke nor have pets, etc. It's a perfectly clean microphone on a new device.

I also know it isn't a hardware thing because my microphone works perfectly well with good quality on phone calls of every type (normal phone calls, whatsapp phone calls, etc.).

But when sending audios, it sometimes will work, sometimes it won't.

There's no crashes or errors. It just will record complete silence, as if the mic is turned off. If I throw away the audio and re-try a couple times, it will work again and perfectly.

I've restarted, uninstalled/reinstalled multiple apps, cleaned cache, cleaned my phone, turned off bluetooth, raised volume nothing works.

My phone has volume working perfectly fine, it's just the microphone that won't record any sounds whatsoever, no feedback from the mic on the app, and then if I retry it'll work.

It happens on whatsapp, instagram, and telegram audios.

Anyone else having this issue? It's really annoying to have to constantly repeat audios.

The latest update that happened a couple days ago fixed it for now!

Sadly I didn't get any assistance, but the latest update that happened a few days ago fixed it for now!

I have the exact same problem ever since I updated back in december right after buying my A54. It's been frustrating since 2 of every 3 attempts the mic fails. No update has fixed it yet.

UPDATE: This fix worked for me for one or two days, then the problem returned as always.

POSSIBLE FIX

Apparently the problem is linked to Bixby Assistant. Had to deactivate it from the settings and now the problem has been fixed! Hope everyone can fix it.

Exactly the same! So flipping fed up with it. Found a fix yet! I have disabled Bixby Voice but still having issues. Completely random and sometimes every 3 and sometimes every 10 recordings! Help!!

Please do check if you have any pending software updates on your Settings! Mine was fixed in an update from Samsung in February.

No pending software updates, my solution of uninstalling Bixby worked for one day or two and then the problem returned as always. It's an amazing phone overall but I cannot understand how they can't fix such a basic error.

I recently had a software update and it seems to rectified the problem. Check if your phone needs one too. I'm so relieved 🙃
