Hi,
first of all sorry for my bad english.
Sometimes when i have a call the volume change a few seconds to very low and then to normal. This happens not only with the same conversational partner.
Can some1 help me with this prob ? Or is this prob only with my phone?
thanks in advance.
Nexus 5 completely stock 4.4.2.
The ear speaker is touchy, if you shift it slightly while on the phone it doesn't line up with your ear properly. Does this happen to you while on speakerphone as well?
Hi,
Thanks for answer. I have never used the peakerphpones. So i can try to turn the phone next time during a call. And you mean this is the solution?

Hi,
I just bought the Nexus S from bestbuy.
I'm having trouble with the in call volume which is too low.
It almost impossible to hear the other side while in a noisy room.
I used the left button to bring it to the maximum but it almost doesn't help.
Did any of you experienced such an issue?
Is anyone familiar with any HW\SW solution ?
Thanks!
Oren
Please Help!! idk what to do!!...
Hello.
Device (Nexus s) began making noises during a call, kind of like really loud knocking.
At first I thought something was wrong with the apraxia, but when I plugged in the headset only the noises there were on the right side and on the left side there was not noises.
It is important to note that I have full reception and Sim supports 3G.
Then when I turned the conversation there were not to speaker noises.
If someone could help me I would appreciate it very much!!
Or Sharon.

Hi Guys -
Black Nexus 5. It has been great in everything except placing and receiving calls. I don't use a headset just the phone directly. But whenever I call someone, people tell me that they can barely hear me. To fix that I literally have to move my mouth right next to the microphone and even then the voice is barely ok. I almost have to shout. People tell me that I sounded much louder on my own phone.
Also while hearing people on the phone the voice is too low. I use the volume control app and have the IN CALL volume on FULL. 5/5. Still I barely hear the other person and if it's noisy outside I cannot. Contrast to my previous phone in which I had to go down to 50% volume otherwise it was too loud.
Is this a defective unit? A hardware issue? Do I need to ask Google for replacement? I am loath to do that since the phone has been amazing in everything else. It's fast as hell and the battery life is super.
I wanted to know if any one has the same problem and whether it might be fixed with a software update or is it just a hardware issue and something wrong with my phone?
Thanks in advance.
Idem for me !
Hi,
I've the same problem with my Nexus 5. I think that it's a software problem because, when I put the speaker on, the problem is resolved. I think that it's due to 2 microphones and noise cancelation... Our voice is canceled ! I hope that Google is awared of that problem and will delivered a fix quickely. Specially that there is another problem with speaker that sometimes sizzles a lot ! I think that i'm going to buy a headset in the meantime. That's really a shame : a new phone that we cannot use to phone ! Even if yes for the other thinks Nexus 5 is great.
Are they other people that are the same problem ? How can we open a case in Google ? How they know that there is really something to fix ?
Thanks,

Did you ask for an RMA? If so, what is the status?
I have the same issue and google has promised an RMA.
Its quite a pain not to have a phone for a week.

I don't think a replacement will help.
There are several other threads already
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2518840
exactly the same here... already some news what to do?
This issue seems to have become worse with the 4.2.2 update. The in-call volume is very very low. It's impossible for me to hear other people unless I am in a quiet room (the volume is maxed out). I recall with the stock 4.4.0 - the call volume was not that low.
For whatever reason, using a headset everything is fine. So for phone calls, Nexus 5 is only usable if I use a headset. It's impossible with the earpiece.
Anyone else having a problem with low in call volume? I'm wondering whether it's my specific phone. Everything else is perfect, and the battery life is insanely good. Wondering whether I should RMA.
I too am having this problem. It wasn't like this before the update but outside I can barely hear the other side. I don't make a lot of calls tbh but I remember shortly after I bought it making a call to another N5 and thinking how great it sounded.
Now it's hard to use.
I am having the same issue some days back. They Have replaced with new one..No issues so far..

Hi - did you do anything. I am wondering whether RMA helps in such a case.
I haven't done anything with mine yet I was hoping to compare it to a friends N5 first.
I might try and contact Google.

Hi, I have a probleme wih mine s4 active
The loudspeaker starts to make noise...static noise,
the loudspeaker can't play anything, but even with option without sound it make noises :S
Another thing I just noted , is when I put the battery in phone the loudspeaker make noise too ( with phone turn off)
the phone works fine
but today my battery gone after 2hours oO
I think you should send your phone to service. I'm not sure but I don't think it is a problem we can fix, it is a problem with the speaker itself imo... But wait untill someone with more knowledge answers, I am a noob

Yesterday I bought a second hand N5 phone and I can't hear much when dialing other persons. The sound is too low...someone around here with same problem and maybe a fix? Thanks.
You have to be very precise with the placing of the ear speaker because it is round, it is easily covered by your ear, making it seem quiet.
Please use descriptive thread titles. If you want help, you will get more help if you change your title.
