[Q] Speaker and Speakerphone Problems - Verizon HTC One (M8)

Currently running Viper 3.2.
I am having issues with my speakers (snap, crackle and pop) but I think this is likely a well known hardware issue, although I really just noticed it recently (I probably got a refurb when I did a warranty fix for usb port).
However, I am also having issues with speakerphone. No one seems to be able to hear me on speakerphone and they say it sounds very distorted. Has anyone else had similar problems and/or found fixes for both speaker and speakerphone issues?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Sound distorted during calls

First of all I am sorry if there is thread with same issue but I couldn't find it.
My problem is not in tinny sound or no sound at all. It is problem that during calls sound from earpiece is distorted and I can't hear clearly what are people saying to me. This distortion is present every time even on speakerphone. On headset sound is clear.
I don't know when exactly that began but it was somewhere around when I S-OFF the phone with AAHK and installed IceColdSandwich.
First I thought it was earpiece and replaced it, but the problem remains. Then I notice that when I turn on speakerphone while headset is plugged in the sound in earpiece is clear. I also tried to play music without headset and noticed that in this case also sound is clear in earpiece. (on speakerphone and when I listen to music sound is also reproduced in earpiece besides loudspeaker on the back of the phone).
So I concluded that it is problem with some mics. Then I noticed that main difference between DHD and Inspire 4G is dual mic (mic near flash) so i then tried several ROMs for Inspire and DHD, with or without inspire mod fix and also stock GB ROM. I also flashed several radios (12.39a.60.19x_26.06.06.30, 12.56.60.25x_26.10.04.03_M, 12.69.60.29_26.17.14.11_M) but no avail.
I think that it seems to be software issue but I don't know what radio or ROM to try.
Did anyone have this issue or knows how ti fix it?

Anyone having outgoing speakerphone quality problems?

Anyone having problems with the audio quality when using speakerphone?
I have a bunch of people complaining to me about the way I sound on speakerphone. It sounds like I am in a hole and there is a popping/screaching that they hear.
The person I am having the most problems with is on Verizon with a new Note 3.
I thought it might be the HK hack causing the problem but reversing it back to stock doesn't alleviate the issue.

[Q] Headset Mic Sound Problems in Calls

I'm experiencing an issue with my AT&T Sony Xperia Z3 (Android 4.4) during calls while using a headset with a mic. I've used several different headsets and they all have the same problem. This is running stock ROM and is not rooted.
When in a call, all of the noise being picked up by my mic is being routed not just to the person on the other end of the line (as it should be), but to my own ears as well. It's extremely distracting and I've never experienced this behavior before.
Is anyone else experiencing this? Anyone have a fix for this?

this can be compatibility between software and hardware generally
but it can cause because of Software bug in firmware >> so Repair firmware by PC Companion
if nothing change after repairing the firmware it can be faulty hardware in port and u need to take it to service center
:good:
I'll try repairing the firmware and see if that fixes anything. If this is a hardware issue, then that will obviously be a huge pain and I'm not looking forward to that process.

Mic too low during Bluetooth calls

I'm having an issue with my Idol 3 5.5". It functions normally when in handset or speaker mode I can hear the other party and they can hear me, but when I connect to my car's Bluetooth people tell me they can't hear me or it sounds like the mic is far away and under water. I did not have this problem with my last phone so I do not believe the issue is with my car (it's a Grom unit) I have only had this phone for a couple weeks and have had the issue from the beginning.
I'm running 6.0.1 stock ROM build 7VAB-UEB0
So far I have tried:
turning off and on Bluetooth on my phone during or right before calls
unpairing and repairing my car
I am charging an old Bluetooth earpiece to try that today and make sure it isn't an issue with my car.
Anyone else have this issue and were you able to solve it?
Me too, dont know what to do

Not the same issue. That thread is talking about poor/low microphone when recording video. This thread is about poor microphone quality through bluetooth, which does not use the phone's microphone.
I'm still trying to determine what the issue is. I tried using an old bluetooth headset and the test call was fine so I will try it tomorrow while driving to confirm. It might be that the Idol doesn't like certain bt devices.

Anyone else have issues with call audio quality?

Ok, so I've noticed something a little weird with my Nex (int. version).
When making or receiving calls, on either of my SIMs, there's like a sort of thudding noise, almost like something is knocking the screen. It's pretty quiet but noticeable enough during calls.
Through trial and error, I've discovered it seems to be volume related, almost like an audio clipping issue.
My first thought was that it was a hardware issue with the earpiece, especially as calls made on the loudspeaker are fine. But I discovered you can listen back to call recordings on the earpiece and when I do that, the noises are gone. So that pretty much rules out a hardware issue.
The next thing that crossed my mind was that it might be signal related, however the issues aren't present on the call recordings full stop, which pretty much rules that out too, as any audio imperfections caused by the signal would have to be present in the recording as well.
So I'm stumped, it only seems to happen within calls themselves. There's no obvious cause, either hardware or signal, so I'm wondering if it's software-related but I can't see how.
Has anyone else had any similar issues?
Yh I've been experiancing the exact same issue on my int version also. Its related to the volume like you said but it would be interesting to know if the chinese version has the issue or not.
I have the Chinese version. I'm not experiencing audio clipping. No thumps. No problem.
Any other with same problem here ?
i am facing same issue, but sometimes who calls me or i call someone they are listening Echo sound.
Anyone managed to solve this issue? I got my phone 3 days ago and this issue appears in most of my calls. Interestingly, it seems to work perfectly fine while I'm on the line and wait for the person to pick up.
I got same issue. How to solve this?
