Mic from headphones doesn't work

[GeoGC]

Please tell us some basic information before asking for help:
Model Name: ROG Phone 2
Firmware Version: WW.17.0240.2108.103_0
Rooted or not: Not
In addition to information above, please also provide as much details as you can, e.g., using scenario, what troubleshooting you've already done, screenshot, etc.
========================================
I tried using my bluetooth headphones that I bought, but I noticed that during the call, the others couldn't hear me. So I tried to test if headphones work fine and I opened the 'Record voice" app while having headphones connected. I saw that there was no sound. I tried other headphones (wired and bluetooth ones that work perfectly fine on my laptop and my old Samsung Note 4) and I noticed they work totally fine.
Is there something I can do to fix the 'no mic voice' with the headphones on my ROG 2?

Damn still didn't worked, even with factory reset>upgrade to 11, nothing changed with the mic problems I had. I even saw a guide on youtube that I had to clear Bluetooth+Wifi settings and clear data in apps>bluetooth to reset all that completely, but I still have the same issue. So confused why external mics from headphones don't work on my ROG but they do on my other android devices...

Sadly nothing changed on that either. I was experimenting also with changing AVRCP and MAP to older versions but nothing happened. I guess I will just give up on trying to have mic sound from headphones.

Sorry, without the same type of bluetooth headset myself, I don't know other suggestions.
Can you please state what model your headset is so someone or a moderator can help.
