Speaker crackle? - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Several people have mentioned that the speakers crackle. Is it only the speakers, or is it a sound related problem in general? I almost never use phone speakers. I usually either use headphones or a bluetooth speaker.

Mine doesn't. It could change with certain frequencies being played of course.

Same here. Haven't used a wired headset or bluetooth stereo headset yet (jaybirds) but the boom speakers full blast from rock to rap to classical all sound amazing!

I have three of these and all of them are fine at the highest volume.

When I use the audio out on the M8 with headphones or with a wire to my AUX input on the car, I get a very annoying crackling. This happens only on voice calls. Music, video all sound perfect.

[Q] Notifications through headphone and speaker

Anyone else experience the audio notifications and ringtones playing through the back speaker and through headphones at the same time?

Yes, I can confirm this. When using headphones or having my phone connected to my car stereo with the 3.5mm jack the notifications are still played through only the phone speaker.

Headphones jack not working?

A little pissed that no headphone plus came with the phone, si I haven't tested, however it appears that my car audio input it not working on the g2x I can hear the caller, but they can't hear me has anyone tested phone calls using ear plugs?
When I plug into my car input, the external phone mic appears to be turned off and I can hear callers, but they can't hear me.
On my vibrant, I use my car speakers to listen and the phone mic to talk
Is there a way to keep the phone mic on when the jack is plugged in?
when using the head phones on my phone it still sends the audio to the speaker. The phone recognizes that something is plugged in but it still plays through the speaker on the phone. My guess it's a software bug. Can anyone confirm?

Skullcandy 50/50 Mic Problem

I just bought the skullcandy 50/50 headphones, the mic doesn't seem to work with the thunderbolt, if I pull it half way out the mic works but no sounds from the headphones, so are the pins in the wrong places? it's odd because I have and old pair of apple headphones for the first iPhone mic works with. Anyone know which headphones work with the thunderbolt with built in mic? Thanks.
I'm not sure if there is a list, but I have a pair of BeatsbyDre Studio's and everything works fine.

I have Skullcandy, FMJ's and they usually work well. From time to time I have your problem. But if I unplug and replug it works again.

It might be because they are iPod / iPhone only. says so on the packaging. I believe they have a slightly different plug that has an extra piece for transmission of the play/pause/skip buttons.
I don't think they will ever work for a thunderbolt... might want to return them. I have a Bose pair that works flawlessly, also the standard skullcandy headsets will work fine.

Ok thanks guys.

[Q] Terrible voice quality using headset with mic/remote?

I seem to have terrible voice quality during calls when using a wired headset with mic. The other end reports extremely quiet and muffled voice on my side.
I've tried other pairs of headsets and it seemed the same. Also tried them on my computer and they seem to sound find, so probably not my headset's problem.
Is it a common problem? Any mods that will improve the quality?
Apparently like the Nexus 4 this phone doesn't have an amplifier or something so when you use headphones with a mic the sound is really low.

[Q] Audio problems with the nexus 5

Hey! I have an audio problem with my device. When i just play some music with google play using my headphones (that came with galaxy 3 that i have) it sounds like i am hearing in low quality and i can't hear some parts that are playing. For example, sometimes i can't hear the singer singing or the guitar plays. Kinda like my device is playing stereo and my headphones gets only one side.
It's worth mentioning that i tried other headphones, which didn't help much. I have tried other audio apps also and got the same results.
I have searched for an answer to the situation for quite some time now and didn't find any.
Thank you
I
Either there's a problem with the headphones (but you imply it is the same across different ones), or they are not plugging in properly. Is the jack in fully? Is there something lurking in the socket that might stop the jack from connecting?

the problem is that this issue happens with other headphones too.
maybe you should try to loose the headphone jack a little bit, hope this works
Well i tried playing a little with the jack but no luck...
what do you mean by "loose the headphone jack a little bit" ?
I don't want to cause any physical damage ...
Either the jack was incorrectly installed or the jack is defective. I would RMA the unit if I were you.

Today I had an issue where my volume was all the way up and the phone plugged into the receiver wouldn't work. The s3 I have here would play just fine though.
