Hello all,

A week ago I did a FOTA update to 6.5.5 Beta (MIUI 7.4) but with this version I began to have issues with the microphone gain!
When recording movies the sound is clear, but with WhatsApp, the voice recorder and phonecalls the volume is very low. Unless I turn on speakerphone, the caller on the other side does not hear anything.

My Mi4c is from 10-2015. I tried to install 7.5.4 Stable (MIUI 7.5) but that didn't work either - the issue still persist. What can I try?

Thanks
 
I had the same problem with 6.5.5 Beta (MIUI 7.4), but 7.5.4.0 stable seems to be slightly better (but still unusable for VoIP calls/video). The issue is observed when on speaker or earphones. Your mouth has to be really close to the mic, otherwise the other party cannot hear a thing.
 
I did download Voice Recorder app (by lovekara). It works much better than stock app, the quality of the sound is better, less noise and much louder. Give it a try.
