Poor earpiece quality, finding "sweet spot" and hissing

Hi all
Picked up a Nexus 5 recently (latest model latest revisions) and love the phone but am having issues with the earpiece quality.
I have to constantly move the earpiece/headset around to hear the person and find the "sweet spot", or they fade in and out.
Also I notice a hiss at times.
Reception and earpiece quality overall just don't seem good.
I have iPhone 5, galaxy s4, and htc one and none have these issues.
I am on rogers wireless in Montreal.
Does anyone else have these issues ?
Any idea how I can resolve them ?
Some have suggested changing kernel ?
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance

I have the same low earpiece volume problem.
So i use my phone a lot for voice calls and here's what I've found:
1) Prior to the android update (in stock 4.4.0) the earpiece in-call volume was ok. However the microphone was bad. Meaning other people always complained that i sound very far off and they couldn't hear me clearly. But I could still make calls without using a headset.
2) After 4.4.2 update, the microphone issue seems to be resolved. People tell me that they can hear me better. However the earpiece in-call volume is much lower than before. I can only hear people if I am in a very quiet room and even then I have to strain.
The only way to use the phone for calls is to use a headset (both wired and bluetooth work). The other day I was using my old Samsung Galaxy S3 for a phone call. The difference in clarity for phone calls is night and day. I had to actually lower the volume of the S3 because it was so loud and clear.
At this point, I am not sure whether it's my Nexus phone and a hardware defect. Could it be something that google did in the 4.4.2 update (meaning fixed the microphone, but lowered the in ear volume). Furthermore using a headset at max volume sometimes distorts the audio.
The funny thing is that with the 4.4.2 update the phone speaker is better and louder. However the earpiece for making calls is just plain lousy. I can't take calls unless I am carrying a headset with me.

Love everything but earpiece volume...

I have this phone exactly the way I want it and truly believe it's the best phone I've owned BUT I need the earpiece volume to be more. I work in a factory and need more volume to be able to hear on the plant floor. Is there a hack or build prop edit I could do? Thanks in advance for any help.
Yeah I always thought the volume on a phone call was terrible on the M7, got a little bit better on the M8 but not much. Speaker at its lowest volume might help out when you're out on the floor though.

[Vibe X3: ISSUE] : Speaker Volume and Quality have reduced Drastically after updates.

Volume through the speaker and ear piece are extremely low compared to the stock phone. Unable to make calls with ear piece as I cant even hear the other person. and speaker volume while playing media is extremely low and quality is very poor. Sound Quality used to be the best feature of this phone, now only sound through earphones is Good. anyone else experiencing this ?
Even I have observed the same since the first update. I am thinking to downgrade and going back to stock.
Which version is good?
just out of curiosity, is the sabre dac enabled in this??

Call Volume is horrible, what can I do to fix it?

Hello.
I've gotten pretty frustrated with using my 3a for a while now regarding this specific issue, the call volume is just always super low and makes using the default phone app unbearable because I can hardly hear the other person, it is ALWAYS at max volume btw.
I just genuinely do not understand why the call volume is so low whilst the other volumes (media, alarms, etc) don't seem to have this issue and I can even get additional apps to boost the volume for those- but not the call volume.
It seems to have gotten worse just several days ago when some liquid hit the grill , so now instead of it sounding like someone is 3 feet away from the phone, it just sounds like 6 feet away. But even with this situation, it did NOTHING to my other volume settings.
Is there anything I can do to improve the loudness at all without depending on headphones? I would prefer having the phone on my ear , especially since calls on headphones literally echo whatever gets picked up on my microphone back to me I just honestly hate it.
Get a replacement phone. That's not normal. My call volume gets loud.

Is that really the only possible solution here...?
Everything else is fine...I just cannot find a way to make the call volume louder, just seems like Im stuck putting it on speakers or using headphones at the moment.

Hello
I have the same issue, did you solve it ?

Bluetooth headphone low volume?

Today I've bought Sony MDR WF-XB700's and sound quality is great but I feel like the maximum volume is too low for me, I listen to music loudly and these I think are normal for most of the people but I feel like bass could punch a lot harder but I just can't turn up the volume that high. I've tried the disable absolute volume for bluetooth and tried increasing the gain from viper4android (rooted) but it just clips the sound, I'm looking for anything even rooted solutions, thanks. Phone is LG G7.
Really is this problem that bad that no one knows how to solve? I'll end up returning them in the last it seems like.
