hello there,
I have a op7 running on latest oos.
I bought the phone in oct 2019.
Right from the beginning I'm facing call volume issue.
Let me explain the issue carefully.
When i place the phone to my right during a call, it is heard low though i put the call volume level to high.
But when i place my phone to my left it sounds good.
Idk it's the problem only with me or any people facing the same.
Anyone having the same issue reply pls.
Also suggest me if there is any solution for this.

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
Hi!
I just got my nexus s. When Im talking to someone else on the phone, the person I'm calling sounds very crackly. The crackling appears while having the volume > 50%. If its at 50% and lower the speaker sounds just fine. Another thing I noticed is that holding my thumb onto the speaker eliminates the crackling.
I think that I'm going to return the phone. Just wanted to know if I'm the only one having that kind of trouble.
The exact description of the phone is GT-I9023FSAC NX in case some one asks.
Thanks a lot!

are you on stock? no volume config apps?
if you havent done anything to your phone yet besides calling and texting, then yeah, i think you should get your phone replaced.
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.

hello, I'm having trouble with call volume on my S8+ Korean model. All other sounds are normal but call volume is like a whisper. Normal phone calls and WhatsApp calls are impossible to hear, I have to turn on the speaker or connect headphone every time I want to make a call.
Im using Batman rom without any sound mods.
I've tried googling and asking around but non seems to have this problem. I was thinking it was a defective earpiece speaker but there is still sound.
Anyone has any idea, please advise.
P/s: I've also tried resetting
This may seem simplistic but I would go back to the stock ROM and if the issues goes away you know the problem is with the ROM, if not then the issue is with the phone, probably.
I have the same problem on stock. Think it happened after last update and that's a while ago now. See there are a lot of people with the same problem at the samsung forum. Still no fix though :/
Maybe there is a way to fix it if we root? Force the speaker levels up or something.
The problem in question goes way back to early moto devices like the nexus 6 and back. The issue is where the speaker doesn't play at full volume for the first second or so before going at full volume.
Is that still an issue here? I know it was on the moto x4.
I made a couple speaker phone calls on my Moto G7 Power and the volume is consistent. I hit the
speaker phone icon just after dialing and it doesn't fluctuate.

The use case it usually occurs under is if the the phone hasn't been used for a while and then a Sound plays. Like receiving a text notification. What I've understood in the past is that however moto sets up their hardware, the software has to "wake up" the speaker to play at full volume resulting in a lag. If the speaker is awake, no problems. So your particular use case may not affect it.
Do you mean that the notification appears on the screen and the sound lags behind it or the sound fluctuates
when a notification comes in. I'll try to replicate the problem if I know what your talking about.

Sort of the second part. You will notice a fluctuation as if the tone starts off very quiet, regardless of playback volume, before quickly elevating to the correct volume. It's as if it suppresses the first second of the sound.
Yeah, this is why my alarms sound quieter the first second. My G7 Power suffers this issue.
Even though, this hasn't been any problem besides that the beggining of each alarm is gentler. If this is repeated in any other circumstances, I never realized. So it's not much of an issue anyway, at least for me.
Went to a best buy to test one out. Still Doss it. I don't know why moto has to do this to every phi e.
