wondering if any one is having problems with people receiving your phone call. I can hear them fine, but they hear me all muffled or static. It only happens when I'm driving or walking around with the phone, but if I stop moving they can hear me fine. Going to exchange mine out.
Someone already posted that they had problems with call sound in noisy environments. So It's prob normal and an issue with the noise cancel software.
Have this off and on.
What bothers me the most is the terrible sound from the earpiece. Sounds real digital and scratchy. Their terrible noise cancellation no doubt. Worst sound quality I have had in a long time.
Hey guys,
Just wanted to ask if anyone else has this issue where you get this strange ticking sound during playback of a video you've recorded. Anyone know if there's some specific setting I'm supposed to turn on/off to make it go away? It's bugging the hell out of me.
I've noticed, however, that if I turn the WiFi off the ticking sound goes away. So I guess that's my fix for now.

FOCUS
The noise comes from the lense trying to focus on the new view when you move the phone. It has nothing to do with the Wi-Fi. Probably you were moving less while on Wi-Fi.
The bad thing is that this noise is even recorded pretty loudly in the video. This is a very good question as this could become a major issue with this phone.
I haven't experimented a lot with mine yet to determine how to avoid this issue. I would try to not to make jerk movements while in video mode to see if the lens will move smoothly and will not make any noise.
There are $900+ camcorders that do poor sales due to some similar problems. Noisy cooling fan etc. I really hope HTC did not overlook this issue.
Let us know if you do any of the above siggested experiments and if you still have the noise.
Thanks
Hi,
I tried doing what you suggested and it didn't help that I was holding the phone very still when shooting a video. The ticking sound is still there. But as soon as I turn the WiFi off it goes away.
Could it be some kind of interference problem?

I have clicking with our without wi fi. And the noise comes in the exact moment I move the camera and lens trying to re-focus. It might have to do something with the settings /hopefully...

I've taking some shots this morning. You can see them here.

Let me know what you think.
Thank you for sharing these videos.
I imagined the sound be much worse based on the comments but it's not that bad. Still annoying though and should be fixed. Especially for those recording more silent videos (like me).
OK these are two different things. The noise that I am referring to is video #1 00:06 the noise from the lens. And since your are not doing long short distance it only clicks once thru the video.
I agree that you have ticking sound and might be some interference with the WiFi unique to your apartment etc.
However, there is another noise source, that every phone has but people are not aware of it yet. The noise from the lens focusing which is much louder than the ticking noise in your video

I didn't really notice the sound resulting from the lens focusing, but I'll check again. And I'll test recording some videos while connected to the WiFi at work. Like you said, it could just be an interference problem with my home WiFi.
Just a quick update,
I recorded a short video at work, while connected to the office WiFi. No change. The ticking sound was still there. So I'm guessing there's something wrong with the camera module that makes it susceptible to WiFi interference.
I'd like to know if anyone else is experiencing this problem.

I'm having the same issue with my HTC One X. Wifi on = noise in recordings.
With the new blackout rc3 the problem is solved for me

i got surface pro on the first day morning. and I found this microphone problem hours ago when I first make a Skype phone call with my friend.
My friend told me that there is very loud background noise. So I make some tests with several recorder app in different room and tried to unplug power . And the noise is not caused by fan. The background noise is big enough to be noticed (very big in some sense) and sound like electronic noise. Like electromagnetic interference.
So I wonder if you guys have the same problem? or I guess I need to replace for a new one.... I always get bad luck on electronic stuff...
Could anyone try it out? thank you.

Record the sound, post a clip. Frankly, I doubt unusable background noise pickup by the mic would be acceptable, so it's not at all likely all of them do this.
For kicks, did you crank up the mic boost or levels? Perhaps you just need to lower them...
I am having the same issues, lots of backround noise.... I am going to mess around with the mic levels when I am in a quiet location, and see how It goes. I'll post back soon.
When I tried to record an audionote in (the full version of) OneNote, I noticed that there was a LOT of background noise, like the mic levels had been turned up way too much. Turns out that was exactly the case: by default, I had been set to a 24dB gain boost! Silly Microsoft.
Setting gain to 0dB and microphone level to 75 worked just fine for me.
Hi.
Can anyone test their loudspeaker on their Nexus 5 for me and post their results?.
My loudspeaker is fine when playing music or videos. However, when I enable the loudspeaker during a call (for hands free), if using any volume over half way it starts distorting like mad to the point its gets a little difficult to understand the person speaking.
Is this just my phone or a common fault?, it only seems to be happening when I use the loudspeaker to go hands free. Pretty annoying as it's something I use a lot.

I do not seem to be having those issue when using the phone hands free. I do notice at the high end the sounds gets a little distorted but nothing like you're experiencing.
Same issue here...now i don't know if it's software problem or should i send the phone for repair?
Well after about 3 days of use it appears I have a bad mic. The other person only hears me on speaker or in a headset. What happened after the Nexus 5 where these phones started becoming garbage?
Im reading this is a common problem with the phone.
Anyone else run into this? Anyone have a fix? Blowing air in didn't work and neither did playing with the headphone adapter.
Just hit mic issues on my Pixel 2 as well. Mic works in video recordings but not in audio recordings or for google assistant. Apparently Verizon were told that there is a software fix coming (http://www.valuewalk.com/2017/11/problems-google-pixel-2-mic-solved/) but I can't find anything official. I did get it working again by blowing into it but that only lasted a few days. Now it's not working again and blowing ain't doing squat.
