HELP!! Callers can't hear me. In call audio drops out during calls. Mic stops working.

HELP!!  I'm on my 2nd brand new HTC One from Verizon in the past 2 weeks, and both phones have the exact same issue.  During a call, the microphone that picks up my speaking voice intermittently and suddenly stops working and people on the other end of the line say they can't hear me anymore?  It happens on about 50% of my phone calls.  It's maddening!  If I put speakerphone on it works fine, and if I use ear buds it works fine, but in the normal phone mode when holding up to my ear, is where the problem occurs.  The proximity sensor is working fine, and I'm not accidentally hitting the mute button with my cheek either.   I'm thinking this has something to do with the fancy "Sense Voice" functionally on the phone using dual microphones and noise cancellation to supposedly try to enhance the sound quality.  Yeah right.  The telephone phone function one this phone is basically unusable.  What is the fix for this problem!  Software update?  Can I disable Sense Voice?  Help!

Have you contacted HTC? I wonder if they have a radio issue like when the thunderbolt came out

Has anyone found an answer?  I just upgraded to the HTC One this week and when I make a call or someone calls me, they can not hear me on the other end unless I am on speakerphone.  If I talk directly into the mic at the bottom or blow into the mic, it works, otherwise not.   I checked a few of the other networks and it seems the same issue with HTC One.

That type of performance is not typical for the advanced and reliable HTC One JFK1973! Does this happen with every call? Are you moving the device while you are talking? Most units will have fluctuating volume and clarity if you aren't talking directly into the microphone. I've experienced this myself with different make and model devices. Have you tested headphones with a mic? This may likely just be how you are holding the device when you are on a call.

I"M HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH HTC ONE. People cant hear me. FIX. Now.. T-MOBILE users where having the same issue until they released the 4.3 Jelly bean update.

Hi ninajaj - Let's get you talking again! Does this happen on every call for the entire duration or at random? Are you using a case or cover on the device? There is a microphone on the bottom and another on the back of the phone near the upper right hand corner, please ensure both are unblocked while talking. I will forward to your reply!

Thank you,

I'm having the same problem. People can hear me just fine when I am on speakerphone or speaking directly at the bottom of the phone into the mic, but if I hold the phone to my ear and try to speak, I am muffled and very hard to hear. What is the best option for me? I have factory reset my phone. It wasn't always like this, I used to be able to speak just fine.

Thanks in advance!
