Other party can't hear me

I have an LG G2. Recently, when making or accepting a phone call, the person on the other end cannot hear me. I can hear them just fine. This happens whether I talk using Bluetooth, speaker phone, or using the phone in a normal manner. Any clue as to why this is happening? I already made sure it wasn't on mute. Thanks.

On the LG G2, you need to turn off the OK Google from any screen "feature" .

Go to Settings, Language & Input, Voice Search,  "OK Google" detection"  and turn off "From any screen"

My wife's phone has worked flawlessly for the last 3 days since she has turned this feature off, and she makes a LOT of phone calls.

I have a LG G3 and having the same problem. It started a few days ago.  A person on another forum thinks it is because of a Google update related to "OK Google" function.  I can power off and back on and it works sometime, but only briefly.  Today I can't get it to work at all.

Can you please try something for me to see if this issue is isolated just to calls? Please try using the mic with the speak to text or voice note options and see if the phone is able to hear you.

Hi, I just read your email. Thanks for getting back to me!!

I tried the voice recorder and it worked fine. I can't figure out how to

use text to talk on my phone so I haven't used that.

I just tried to make a call and they still can't hear me.

I appreciate your assistance with this.

Thank you

I have used "Voice To Text" and it works fine.  I have also used the "Voice Recorder" and it works as well.  I have also used the "OK Google" and it works.  I took the phone to the Verizon store and they said LG is aware of an audio issue with this phone and are working on a solution.  He arranged for a new or refurbished phone to be sent to me.  However, he said it is possible for the replacement phone to have the same issue.

I have received the phone and plan to convert to it today.  I will report back whether this solution seems to be successful.

Thanks for the additional information bec777! Let's get some more clues to resolve this audio issue! When was the last time you were able to use the phone without any audio issues? Did you notice if issue started after installing/updating a particular application/software? What is your current software version? Please set your phone to Safe Mode http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-106047/ and test.   AntonioC_VZW Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.

I, too, am experiencing a similar problem. 2 days ago my earpiece speaker stopped working. Others can hear me but I can't hear them. When I switch to speaker, I can hear them. I can hear audio when watching videos and my speech-to-text works properly when using it for texting.
