Hello Original Poster! Have you figured anything out? I only bought my Ascend 2 yesterday and when I make a phone call no one can hear me speaking.
Funny thing is, if I make the call with the skype app (through the Ascend's dialer) the person on the other end CAN hear me. So I'm thinking it has nothing to do with the mic, but software related.
I tried rebooting and also uninstalling Skype to see if that was somehow messing with things, but no luck. No one can hear me.
If I turn the phone with the end toward my mouth and speak directly in to the mic my roommate said he could hear me a little bit. So I'm not exactly sure what the issue is.
