I'm using SuperAosp 4.6 ROM, from the beginning I experienced a very low sound during in come call.
I tried to lower the sound to min and than to raise it to max but it's still very low, in most crowd places I barely hear the other person.
Any one else experiencing same problem?

has anyone else noticed that the in-call volume is really loud, even at the lowest level? I have mine turned all the way down, but i can almost hear the speaker buzz because the volume is so boomy.
If anyone else has this issue, does anyone have a fix?
I admit that the sound volume is a b it high at times... but then again the HOS has really great audio for the size of the speakers...
It is loud on ocassion, like speaker phone is on
I find the speaker audio tinny/hollow--but acceptable
However, should be better for a cutting edge 600.00 phone with highly advertised beats audio and media monster--
The handset earpiece of my Nexus 5 sometimes gets very quiet. It gets so quiet that sometimes I can't understand what people are saying. the volume is up high and fluctuates a lot. Is anyone else having this issue?
I tried making a call with grooveIP and I have the same fluctuating volume with that as well.
Hi all
Picked up a Nexus 5 recently (latest model latest revisions) and love the phone but am having issues with the earpiece quality.
I have to constantly move the earpiece/headset around to hear the person and find the "sweet spot", or they fade in and out.
Also I notice a hiss at times.
Reception and earpiece quality overall just don't seem good.
I have iPhone 5, galaxy s4, and htc one and none have these issues.
I am on rogers wireless in Montreal.
Does anyone else have these issues ?
Any idea how I can resolve them ?
Some have suggested changing kernel ?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance

I have the same low earpiece volume problem.
So i use my phone a lot for voice calls and here's what I've found:
1) Prior to the android update (in stock 4.4.0) the earpiece in-call volume was ok. However the microphone was bad. Meaning other people always complained that i sound very far off and they couldn't hear me clearly. But I could still make calls without using a headset.
2) After 4.4.2 update, the microphone issue seems to be resolved. People tell me that they can hear me better. However the earpiece in-call volume is much lower than before. I can only hear people if I am in a very quiet room and even then I have to strain.
The only way to use the phone for calls is to use a headset (both wired and bluetooth work). The other day I was using my old Samsung Galaxy S3 for a phone call. The difference in clarity for phone calls is night and day. I had to actually lower the volume of the S3 because it was so loud and clear.
At this point, I am not sure whether it's my Nexus phone and a hardware defect. Could it be something that google did in the 4.4.2 update (meaning fixed the microphone, but lowered the in ear volume). Furthermore using a headset at max volume sometimes distorts the audio.
The funny thing is that with the 4.4.2 update the phone speaker is better and louder. However the earpiece for making calls is just plain lousy. I can't take calls unless I am carrying a headset with me.
Is anyone else experiencing a tinny sounding earpiece when on calls at a moderate to high volume? It sounds like the earpiece is rattling or vibrating, but I don't really notice it too much on music. The other phones on my T-Mobile plan (Note 4 and an S5) don't have this issue at all.

i also have this rattling noise, I wonder if it is related to the phone speaker ?
this happened to me on various calls to. It doesn't seem to effect music output or anything else though. Also it doesn't happen on all my calls & I've noticed it more on VoWiFi Hasnt bothered me enough as its not consistent and I use somewhere around 50-100 mins a month Haha TXT PLS.
Hey there,
so I am having this strange issue with my GS6 speaker. I can hear random high frequency noise from time to time.
Also I can clearly hear when the speaker is active and when it's not. It emits this silent noise all the time.
Sorry I have no good microphone to record this noise. But I tried to record the high frequency noise: you might need to turn your volume all the way up to hear it: https://youtu.be/f2CiTVqfdXs (you can hear it only when I put the speaker near the microphone of the phone I was filming with)
I am not sure what to do. Is this a good reason to bring the phone to the retailer for the change?
Does anyone here can reproduce the same issue?
