Hi guys,
I got my Nexus 5 yesterday (White 16gb) and have been having some weird issues with the volume suddenly dropping during a call. A little while into a call I'll suddenly barely be able to hear the person on the other end, then the volume will come back up again. This can happen any number of times during a call. Am using Nova Launcher Prime (dropped back to stock launcher but the same thing) but everything else stock not unlocked/rooted.
Was wondering if anyone had any information about or had experienced anything similar to this. I'll probably end up RMAing the phone in the next day or so.
Cheers

Did you ever find a fix for this? I've been having the same issue.

I just picked up this tablet today and I'm running TNT lite 2.2. I seem to be having issues with the sound now. It is coming out all staticy and crackling... When it happened the first time, I rebooted and it went back to normal. But now it has happened again 20 min later...
Anyone else experience this?

with fring, but that's about it... tnt2.2.1 here.
I had the same problem with the original one that I purchased with no new image put on it yet. I exchanged it and the new one is fine. BTW, I did notice that the sears employee marked it as having a sound problem so you didn't get mine.
I am as well
Having issues with the sound. At times when a sound is to be played, I hear a loud static noise. It only happens a few times. Also, when I plug in headphones, only the Right side is heard and not the Left. Any help??
For any sound issues, I would suggest going back to stock and trying it. I have had a lot of mod issues, but staticky sound is not one of them.
I have a sound issue where there is a loud static sound and its intermittent.. pressing any buttons seems to stop it. it goes away after reboot.
Return it! I had this issue with my first G tab. It got progressively worse over the course of 2-3 weeks, until I had no functioning sound. My new unit has not had this problem at all.
P.S.
any one picking up a refurb in santa cruz, ca beware...Sears employees asked 0 questions when I returned it
Hi all,
Just wanted to put this out there to see if anyone else had experienced this. Using SGS2 skyrocket - stock 2.3.5 UCKK1 (rooted) and then updated UCLA3 everything (rooted) - When on a phone call after sometimes 1 minute and then other times 5 minutes my microphone stops working and the other person cannot hear me. I can hear them fine, but they cannot hear me.
Wired headphones work without an issue, but the internal mic seems to have an issue with my phone. a work around I read for the non LTE SGS2 works where you hit the speakerphone button and then they can hear you again and if you turn it off it buys you another 5 minutes or so on mic.
So frustrated with this that I am doing an exchange today on the phone.
Just wanted to see if anyone else had experienced and if there was a know n problem with the phone? Google and XDA returned very little.
Thanks!

Hey I too also have this issue, I had a temporary fix which lasts longer than turning on the speaker but it's still temporary, I have the skyrocket on Rogers and I called them in about it, apparently it has something to do with the network, they did some reset and told me to restart my phone and it worked for about a week or so, hope this helps, if anyone has a fix to this please reply
I read another case like this awhile back, try searching it up. i believe it was rma'd though
I have a very similar problem, I go "in and out" a lot. The problem is the noise canceling mic on the top of the phone by the headset input, I left myself voice mail on my home phone and while talking moved my finger gently over the tiny microphone hole and that causes me to go in and out.
For most turning of Noise Suppression in settings will work, for me it does nothing as if it is perma on lol except on ICS where it actually turns off (dont ask me I have no idea why)
Hello everyone
So I've recently purchased a Nexus 5 and I really love how smooth the phone acts. I really love the new Hangouts integration and all.
But now people are complaining when I'm a phone call with them. Sometimes my microphone randomly lowers itself to the point people can't hear me. I then adjust my phone positioning in my hand and then they can hear me clear again.
It's not like I'm holding my phone upside down or something, just like a regular person. This problem tends to happen a lot when I'm laying down.
It's a 310K model so it's from one of the first batches.
Anyone having the same problem? I've Googled the problem a bit and people tend to think it's a software problem (something with the noise cancelation thingy). I don't want to return the phone unless I really have no other option.
Would you guys recommend me keeping the phone and wait for a possible fix? I've got this phone a week now and Amazon says I have till half of January to return it for a full refund.
Thanks in advance

I've the same problem+ signal loose randomly.
Phoned up google and tried to resolve the issues.
Now just received my RMA label via email and will receive my replacement phone soon
Hi,
I've the same problem with my 310K Nexus 5 (EU). I'm searching since some days but can't find any satisfying fix.
Today I got an answer from the Google support, they suggest to factory reset my Nexus 5.
I haven't done it yet, but I don't think this could fix the problem. I think I'll try it tomorrow and I'll report back asap.
Please let me know if you find any solution.

the ytold me the same thing(factory reset).
I said I've just did a factory reset...so then offered a replacement
Update: receiving a replacement phone the next days :fingers-crossed:
The speaker was really working really well before the Kitkat update. I am not 100% sure if that was the cause since the phone was updated shortly after I got it. After the update, every now and then the speaker will become really low volume. Sometimes it can be fixed by restarting the phone, but the problem has been happening more and more often. I have the phone for about a month now.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Any suggestion in fixing it? Thank you.

Search xda, its reported already in other threads.
hello, I'm having trouble with call volume on my S8+ Korean model. All other sounds are normal but call volume is like a whisper. Normal phone calls and WhatsApp calls are impossible to hear, I have to turn on the speaker or connect headphone every time I want to make a call.
Im using Batman rom without any sound mods.
I've tried googling and asking around but non seems to have this problem. I was thinking it was a defective earpiece speaker but there is still sound.
Anyone has any idea, please advise.
P/s: I've also tried resetting
This may seem simplistic but I would go back to the stock ROM and if the issues goes away you know the problem is with the ROM, if not then the issue is with the phone, probably.
I have the same problem on stock. Think it happened after last update and that's a while ago now. See there are a lot of people with the same problem at the samsung forum. Still no fix though :/
Maybe there is a way to fix it if we root? Force the speaker levels up or something.
