Does anyone else get microphone errors with whatsapp? Since 5.0 update whatsapp is accessing my microphone in the background, and during calls voice cuts in and out then suddenly ends with an error message about microphone

Did you any other similar app like viber if it comes with same error? If yes I would contact Samsung support via Members app

Head over to your dial pad and type in *#0283#, then select “Start: RCV_1stMic”, speak into your phone like you’re on a call, can you hear yourself talk?

Once you’ve done that select “Start: SPK_2ndMic”, talk into your phone like you’re talking to someone on speaker phone, can you hear the playback?

 

Let us know the results.

Thanks. Just tried it. I could hear very faint playback on 1st mic and clear playback on 2nd mic

I seem to have been able to get rid of the error. I had to reset my phone about 2 or 3 times right after each reset and then install only WhatsApp and make a call. No more error and had a long smooth call. I have now reinstalled other apps and so far still no error. So hopefully it's all fixed now.
