    Hi guys.. I just encountered a problem with my z10 3 days old

    Yesterday there were no problems...

    I'm using a stl-2 now with 2141 software!!!

    Basically I have found out this problem when I started using wechat 3 hours ago.. my audio messages I send... the other party could not hear.. I so thought it was the other end..

    Then my mom started to call me several times.. she can't hear me speak.. so I thought it was her end and bad network.. as she is really using a crappy phone..

    Then I continued trying wechat and it doesn't seem to work.. so I decided to test by disturbing my customer service..
    I put my phone on speaker mode.. and he could hear me just fine.. but when I off speaker mode he can't hear me..

    So I thought faulty phone... so I called up the person where I bought the phone from.. just like 15 mins ago. he told me it's software problem.. where if there is a problem with my microphone.. whether on speaker or non speaker mode the other party won't be able to hear me..

    Can anyone please clarify this

    If it is a software problem, try reloading the software. See elsewhere on the forums.

    Than you can rule that one out.

    The problem here is.. I tried BBM.. 1 on iPhone user..
    He said he can't hear me

    Then I send to another android.. he can hear me perfect..

    Just a question.. if I send a voice note to someone.. can I hear my own voice note that I have sent!?

    If it is a software problem, download and install BlackBerry Link to fully reload the OS. A device swipe doesn't fully reload. This process takes at least 1 hour.

    If you want to make sure that it is either a hardware or software problem, you could download the BlackBerry Virtual Expert app and test your microphone with it

    Did a full wipe.. then tried just to make a call didn't work as well

    1 question.. in z10 how many microphones are in there.. I'm still wondering why this is happening.. if that phone guy is right that every phone has only 1 microphone.. wouldn't the speaker mode not work as well!??

    There is a microphone "hole" down just below the Blackberry logo at the bottom of the screen. There is another mic or "sound canceling or some such" just to the right of the power button on the top edge. Not sure about the "speakphone" aspect.

    Wtf is happening!!!!

    Just a few seconds ago.. I was fiddling with my phone voice dictation settings.. and played with it for the first time since having my phone for a year..

    Of course this is my new stl-2.. and suddenly the thing decides to work..
    I think this is a bug..

    It just worked.. so friggin weird.. my wechat suddenly worked
    After that voice dictation thing

    Solution...

    Press "." for a long time till u get the voice thing then talk.. and see if it reads u..

    Will update further..

    Sounds like a hardware problem
    The wire might be losing connection now and then

    Just try this plug your ear phone call someone. Then try to unplug again. It will be help.
    Yes I experience with it. It is not your phone hardware, try to install last OS update 2228? I am forget, then your problem gone.

    Have the exact problem. In a call, only with blue tooth, or head phones people can hear me. I can use the voice command to search phone, or Internet, but fails the audio recording in virtual expert, and it can't record in remember app. So the mic works only with head phones on, and fails on the rest. Can't be hardware then. Software? Have the latest T-Mobile USA update.

    Basically tested with ear plugs it won't work.. anyways.. this few days I didn't have time to go down to the store..

    Then I was again fiddling with my phone and the stupid thing worked again..

    I know because I was using this parrot recording software. Usually when it is not working the parrot software would show that it's in one straight line..

    So seriously I am still not sure what is going on!! Lolz.. this is one mystery to me

    I'm going to try and make time over the weekend to reinstall the OS. Seems like it must be a bad OS upgrade. If I get to it I'll post results.
