Just got my Honor 8 two days ago and found a critical issue about the speaker. There is a constant noise when I turn on the speaker that sounds like 'chhhhhhhhhhh'. The noise is not too loud but that's really annoying when I make a phone call with the speaker on. The person who answered my phone said it's very noisy and unacceptable.
My Honor 8 is on L14C567B162. Is it a common issue or I just got a defective one?

Yeah, you are right. I'll replace it if it's not a common issue. But could you make a test for me? Make a call to somebody with the speaker on, and then turn the speaker next to your ear. Can you hear the constant static noise?

I regularly switch between normal speaker and then on loudspeaker (speaker phone) and have no problems as you mentioned. And this is on 2 of my own devices.. I even got one of my son's to call me from one of my Honor 8 and I used the Honor earphone in the second Honor 8 to see or in this case to hear if there was any problems. Sorry to say none on my part...

Does anyone have a problem where the earpiece makes a buzzing or rather high pitch noise when the volume is loud on a call
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I have the same problem on a galaxy s 2.
it is random on calls. not sure if its a signal problem or rather a blown ear speaker. irritating at best, thinking what should I do with it now.

I'm getting that too on the European version of the Nexus S - I9023... ButI don't know if it's a hardware issue or a software issue...
.... me too....
My device NEXUS 9020T has been sent to the assistance for warranty, but when they sent it back the noise was still there .... even replaceing pieces (I don't know which ones...
Is there any the solution?
The noise is random

Didi you take it to the service center for this specific issue or for something else ? What did they say about the issue ?
I'm beginning to become obsessed with this issue, so for the past 2 days I've been listening carefully to that noise and it sounds to me that it's not the speaker that's making the noise, but it's like the noise is coming from the phones housing...It's like something's vibrating when the speaker reaches a high pitch sound...
Also, I've been trying to see if my friends have this issue also on other Nexus S and Galaxy S (since it's the same hardware - with some extras ) phones, but this doesn't happen on their phones, however the volume on their phones is a lot lower than mine.

I spoke today with a guy that fixes phones for a living and he told me that the issue is the filter from the earpiece. The phone might've suffered a bump at the store when the people there handled it and that messed with the filter. He said that I can take it to the Samsung service to get it fixed or I can leave it like this... He said it doesn't get worst in time if the issue doesn't get resolved...
this happens on and off with my Nexus S 4g...it drives me insane!!!
I did notice one thing. If I hold the phone kind of tightly and squeeze the backplate to the phone it doesn't make the noise or it makes it less noticeable.

ok.... I do not remember what they have replaced, but i sent them my nexus s i9020T only for the buzzing noise.
They returned me with the same bug.... I've noticed, that when the buzz is in it, little tap on the back of the NEXUS and the noise go away .... it seems....
it could be that it is due for other components not well fixed to the chassis?
In september I will sent my nexus to them but I hope to read here the fix ... I had to wait "only" 45 days after sent my nexus to have it again on my hands

sorry to hear that.
I actually went to the samsung service centre some time ago, and the technician actually said that its normal to him. >_>
He put in some codes at the dialer and said something in the mic and it played the same words, (I ask him for the codes but he didnt want to give it to me) it did the exact loud buzzing sound from the in-ear speaker. I told him THATs the PROBLEM, but he was like thats normal man, if your speaker's blown, you would hear worse than that. He said he had to order a new speaker to have it "fixed" if I insist.
In the end I didnt leave the phone for the fix, thought to myself if I really can't stand it anymore I'll come back and get the speaker replaced or something.
so far I only had 2 friends that had the same problem. the other 3 friends has no such problem.
are there any news about the issue?

guys, I brought back my cell phone for assistance to fix the problem never repaired today! I inform you on his return
I sent my phone in for repair because my camera had a problem and I wanted to see if they could give me a stirdier volume button and fix my buzzing earpiece. The camera was fixed but nothing else. I think I'm calling later today to see if they can take another look at it. My cheaper lg optimus t doesn't have these problems so it's frustrating to see this phone haveso many problems.

Please update us if you can, what fixed your problem. Thanks.
ok I got back my phone (SGS2 internaltion version) from Samsung Service Centre, after a second persuasion they changed the front panel (whole LCD including the front speaker, not sure if the back speaker too, I don't know the structure of the phone).
And now, it's solved!! NO MORE BUZZING when making/receiving calls!
Definitely go ask for an exchange or a change of your panel guys! It's a HARDWARE ISSUE.
i still haven't sent mine in but after hearing that there is a REAL solution could you please tell me everything i should tell the person i talk to from samsung. i just hope they don't ignore the problem a second time and give me the phone back without doing anything to fix the problem.

I dialed a toll free line and let the engineer listen to the buzz, he seemed to be able to make out the buzz too. He said that it could be the glue used on the front speaker. I don't really understand how that would affect it.
But when I took back the phone and asked what was the issue, the same engineer informed that he couldn't actually find the problem, but he just changed the front panel with the speaker. I guess I was pretty insistent (the phone was still under warranty) and I even borrowed another dude's SGS2 for comparison (he was in another counter), everyone was staring at us.
Please note that I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S 2, the structure might be a little bit different, but from my search it seems samsung phones has the same buzzing with some the batches of Nexus S and SGS2.
My gf has been complaining ever since I got this phone that she cant hear me when I'm talking and that I sound all muffled. Been searching around on here and google and found a few others with this issue...Is this with everyone's device?! Or is it only a few that are having this issue?! I dont want to go back to my s4 I was hoping to sell it this week!!
RMA looks like it will take a few weeks too, but if all of them are like this..
I am also having this problem. Friends complain of low/soft voice. Zero problems on speaker, video recordings, and inline mic. Maybe a software issue?

Can you try covering the microphone on the top of the phone (maybe with your finger) while your on the call and see it she hears you any better?
I think the noise cancelling mic may be causing issues for some of us. Let me know.

Right so I left myself loads of voicemails.
Putting some bluetack on the noice cancellation mic does make all the difference in the world!
N/C Covered up:
Test 1: Speak normally on the phone Result: Can hear fine
Test 2: Speak with the phone a little away from my face (not on loudspeaker): Still hear fine
N/C Uncovered:
Test 1: Speak normally on the phone Result: Can hear okay
Test 2: Speak with the phone a little away from my face (not on loudspeaker): Cant hear anything very very faint
Test 3: Speak with the phone on loudspeaker Result: Can hear fine.
I made a thread a few days ago with mic concerns too but only when I was taking on speakerphone... I'm assuming it has something to do with noise cancelation
I was driving on the freeway today and talking on the phone with the speaker phone setting on, and the other person kept saying it sounded like I was getting disconnected. However, when I was at a stop or driving slower (without much background noise) it was fine.
Has anyone else ran into this issue? Or any issue using the speaker phone for phone calls?
Talking on the phone through the earpiece worked fine.
I'm trying to figure out if this is a hardware issue so I can get an exchange.

Speaking on the phone headset is fine for me, unless i move a little away from the mic, so if im not holding the phone directly to my cheek it starts to get quiet and cut up! I tried factory reset, removing all mods, kernel still seems the same. Its really annoying bcuase any slight movement away from my face and I get complaints from the other end saying they cant hear me! Spoke to google and they said just send it back, but im willing to pay £350 and wait 3 weeks for a new handset if they dont have stock..Im short on cash right now!

I don't think you'll have any luck with a replacement. In other threads I noted that I had this same issue with the Galaxy S3 and a replacement didn't make any difference. I think it's just the tone/pitch of some voices that get seen as background noise. Anyway, on the S3 someone pointed me to a setting to turn off noise reduction and that fixed my problem. I don't think the N5 has such a setting.

I never had it with the S4 either. I had one of the first international S3s. I flashed alot of ROMs and at some point I stopped having to change the setting, so it must have been fixed in an updated ROM.

Well, I just increased my overdraft to cover the cost of the replacement while I sell my s4, I really cant go back to it...this phone is t fast to leave. Im on the phone to google now for a replacement just to test it..make me feel better that it may just be software
I've also been getting complaints from my wife about barely hearing me sometimes. I then called for an RMA and ironically, I was talking to Google Support using the N5 and the conversation went without a hitch. I still followed through with the RMA purchase but will continue to test my N5 and see if this problem persists. I can cancel the order within the next couple of days if I find that my N5 is fine, or if it is shipped before I can cancel, then I will just return the new one, or keep it for my wife, or sell it for a small profit. I hope that it's just my wife's hearing cuz I really love this phone.

I fixed it for myself by editing build.prop.
I changed persist.audio.fluence.voicecall=true to false.
That disabled the noise cancellation for normal calls.
The fix for those without root would be to cover the secondary mic on the top of the phone I guess.

I've been using the phone for a couple of days and all calls have sounded perfect, but today I finally talked to my wife with her new N5 and my N5 and I have to tell you it sounds horrible. The mic on these on the other side sounds dull and low. I hope this gets fixed with a software update. How is the fix with the build props working for you guys. I'm tempted on trying it out. I could hardly hear my wife, (maybe that's a good thing).

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,

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..

I've noticed a "crackling" noise in ear speaker. My ear speaker started crackling very bad and it was hard to hear the person I was on the phone with. Even with the volume turned down about half way, I could still hear a little crackling sound but could barely hear the other person.

It's a phone issue (EarPiece), just replace it.
I've ordered (price ~ 1 USD + delivery ~ 2 USD) an Earpiece in China and successfully replaced it (it took me about 10 mins to replace by myself). Now everything is fine.
:laugh:
The some problem with my Nexus 5X.
Ear speaker during calls crackling very bad.
I will send it back.
Hope the new one don't have this issue.

When making a phone call, the receiver of my call complaints that he almost can't hear what I'm saying. When I then switch to speaker, I can be heard fine. Isn't the phone using the same mic for both normal conversation and speaker phone?
Is there maybe an issue with noise reduction? I remember back with the Nexus phones, that the noise reduction could sometimes make a phone call difficult to hear.
(OnePlus 7 Pro on 9.5.11 and now also with 10)

Are you speaking directly into the mic? Is it noisy around you? Is it noisy around the other person? Are you yelling into the mic 1 cm away from it? Is it fine if you leave it off speaker but move the device further away?

Hi,
I have same issues with my phone. I have tried with both EU and international roms.
If someone have a solution I take it :good:
Similar issues here.
It's actually my biggest complaint with this device. Being on a Canadian carrier and thus not having VoLTE or WiFi probably isn't helping either.

I disabled VOLTE and Wifi and this seems to improve quality a little bit.

Sorry for the long delay......
- Yes, directly into the mic
- Not noisy on both sides, tested this today again with my son in our house. It was quiet
- Not yelling, just normal volume.
- Doesn't change when moving the phone away
To add, it seems that calling with WhatsApp voice is a little better and voice call through DUO is really good. Don't understand this.
