So is the crackling speaker effect caused by poor hardware build or software (radio)?
If i raise the in-call volume past 40% i get crackling...sounds almost like it's overamplified or something.
Also noticed when recording videos and there is any bit of noise outdoors, the (stereo) sound is crackling too....
I have a momax case with all holes present for the little noisecancelling mics on the backplate so that shouldn't be a problem.

Are you using any custom ROM or just stock

have the same issue with stock and custom
Same here. Even requested a replacement and the second unit received also suffers from the same issue!
I have the same issue too ! You have to report it to htc. I already reported .
It's a known issue with video recording. To get rid of the microphone clipping go to options and uncheck stereo recording. When it records in mono the sound is not clipped as bad. There are a bunch of threads about this. Kind of sucks because this was a cool feature for this phone and it doesn't work properly.

I don`t care about sound in video recording . Buzzing earpiece make me nervous.
I have the same issue with my stock 2.3.4 T-mo sensation.
It's probably a hardware issue.

Has anyone tried this to fix the crackling speaker? Iget it on some of my phone calls and it really sucks.
Hmm, so I've figured out that apparently my right speaker is loose.. or something. It plays sound, but if it's too loud, it starts buzzing and gets really fuzzy sounding. Then, it stops playing anything at all. However, if I squeeze the right side where the speakers are, I get sound again.
So, my question is, is there any physical fix that you guys know of? Do you think using some rubber cement on the side would fix the issue (probably my last ditch effort if I care enough)? I was actually hoping there might be some kind of... holey electrical tape, like the black electrical tape, but with holes so that sound could pass through.
Hmm, any ideas?
Everybody complains that my voice will sound muffled or cut in and out. I know my microphone is fine because sound recording apps work fine.
Anyone else have this issue?
I think the issue is with the noise canceling mic. Any way to disable it?
I assume you have Razr HD?
Do you have your phone in some sort of a case? It could be the problem if you use Otterbox or some similar cases becuse it shields microphone
so it can make you sound funny to others.
Also are you using 3G/4G? How good is your reception?
Try to clean the microphone cavity with compressed air or a toothpick. I had some problems with my previous Razr HD microphone because it was dirty because of CNC mashine vapors and metal dust...
Give more info so we can solve it...
Cheers
Loudspeaker is producing distorted sound and volume is too low... What should i do???
Doing some necromancy because I couldn't find the answer for this on the forum.
Under the metallic band on the bottom there is a bi-phase tape with holes for the speaker that, with time/dirt accumulation, causes distortion and low volume.
Remove it.
There are strip replacements on amazon...
I just made some holes over the speaker, used some spit to re glue it, then put a bit of masking tape over it (be careful that the paint on the borders).
All credit to this guy.
I thought the audio speaker volume was a bit low and noticed sound is only coming out of the left speaker hole. It's really obvious if I cover up the holes in turn. Could you tell me if yours is the same please?
There IS only one speaker...
Ah, well that would explain it. Silly me, I thought - two speaker holes = two speakers!
One is speaker and the other is the mic
Silly me thought the exact same thing today. I randomly put my phone up to my mouth and noticed the sound went away after covering just 1 side.
Thanks for clearing that up guys!
