Microphone problem

Hi every one, i have a very big problem with my phone. The microphone isn't working when i call someone but it work when i record a video, very strange. I also found out that The people that i called can hear me when i connect a headset ( which didn't got a microphone) to my phone.
Do someone have the same problem ? I really need help.

I tend to believe it's mostly a software issue, can you go to Settings > About Phone > Diagnostics > Tests > Microphone and see if it works?

Hi LorisMDY,

I agree with @YoGem on this one, it sounds like software causing the problem, and likely third party.

If the Diagnostics test shows a pass, then best you boot the device in safemode to see if the issue continues, this will let us know if the problem is third party orientated.

Did you boot the device in to Safemode as instructed above?

On mine, I thought the test had failed but actually the volume was just very low. So the mic works but the volume is just too low to be heard, unless I scream with my mouth right next to the mic.

Hi nathi,

Have you checked to make sure nothing is blocking the Mic area, maybe a case on the phone?

No case on my phone and nothing blocking the mic.
