Bizarre popping noise from speaker when using screen after update - Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra Questions & Answers

Only got my note 20 ultra a few days ago, I think this started happening once I updated to the latest release. I don't remember it happening before anyway.
Basically it keeps making a popping noise out the bottom speaker when interacting. It's relative to the notification volume, so if its muted it doesn't happen, and the louder the notification volume the louder the popping.
I took a video of it, it's quite clear to hear. Is anyone else experiencing this? It seems like a software issue to me rather than hardware

[Q] Vibration and Speaker Issue

Hi *,
I've two Problems with my Razr HD (XT925):
The vibration doesn't work correct, meaning it's fading in and out. Every time the phone is not vibrating and i shake it, it vibrates again for next couple of minutes until it fades out again. So i think it's a hardware problem. I've tested several roms and it's always the same effect, so i suppose that it's not a software bug.
The other problem i have is the speaker of the phone. Whenever i talk to somebody i have trouble in understanding the other person, because the speaker sounds kind of tinny, like the whole case of the phone is vibrating. Changing the volume of the speaker won't help.
Do you have any ideas how to fix these problems?

High pitched noises coming out of call speaker

Okay so I ran into this REALLY weird issue with my call speaker yesterday
Yesterday, when I got home I placed my phone next to my keyboard and forgot about it after a while. When I wasn't behind the computer, someone called me but phone stopped ringing after 2-3 seconds (Possibly they had wrong number) BUT right after the phone stopped ringing, the call speaker began to emit a high pitched noise. I grabbed the phone and tried to stop it by taking out the battery. I also found out that the frequency of the high pitched noise changed every time I moved my phone just a little and then it stopped completely by itself
Today, when I was on the toilet, I received a call and in the middle of a call, the call speaker began to emit a REALLY loud noise (It sounded like the beeping of those really old soviet electronic alarm clocks). I only heard it but the person on the other end couldn't hear it. It got either quieter or louder depending on how I positioned the phone which is a sign that both these incidents are caused by a single issue
I never had this problem before and I'm pretty sure that it's a hardware issue since I tried the volume keys too and it seemed to ignore the volume controls or plugged in headphones
Any idea what could be causing this and how to get rid of this issue? I might not be able to send it for repairs so any "ghetto" repair guides are welcome

Speaker noises when playing sound on low volume.

I noticed that when I'm sitting in a completely quiet room, when I play a video and set the volume to 1 bar, the sound is so bad you can hear literally only buzzing and other wierd noises. It's absolutely fine at higher volume levels, I guess the noises just don't get louder. And I'm wondering, because I have this phone for like four months, and I'm not sure if this got worse than it was at the beginning. May it be due to cleaning the dust with compressed air? Should I remove the cover and check if everything is ok?
Also, it can be heard better if you're holding the phone right by your ear, please check if it's the same for you.
It's really noticeable when listening to people talking, hard to notice when listeting to music.

Mic level too high on Nougat?

Installed Nougat the other day. I always thought mic sensitivity was a tad on the low side with G5 but since Nougat, I noticed that mic is jacked up, way too much. I do lots of voice exchanges on Whatsapp and since Nougat, my voice sounds too loud compared to the usual volume for everything else that the speaker plays back, and it sounds like it's going to clip. I don't think it's a Whatsapp thing since the only thing that changed was the upgrade to Nougat.
Anyone notice?
I noticed this too... before it was too low now too high, Can't catch a break

Tiny static ticking noise from ear piece/ top speaker anyone?

I have noticed that there is a very quiet subtle ticking sound coming from the top ear piece at all times, even when the screen is off. I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this/ can test to see if their device does the same. I've checked my other phones to see if the same thing occurs and noticed that an old moto g (2014) also has a similar sound so I'm thinking it could just normal if the phone is not turning off the speaker and instead is just silencing it with the current still running throught the speaker module.
It's mildly irritating now that I know its there so I wanted to see if all devices have it or not, thanks.
