Hi All,
The in call volume even when set at the max level is very low and it becomes very hard for me many times to understand what the other person is speaking on the other side. Please help me with this problem as I am not sure if there some issue with my handset or this problem is faced by many others using this cell phone. All other features are just awesome but this problem is really annoying me.
Looking forward for a quick help on this.
Thanks in advance.

Sometimes I have the same problem. Some calls have normal volume level (however max could be louder) and some calls (not too many) are so quiet that I can't hear the other person.
I tried to disconnect the person I had problem hearing. Then called back and the problem reappeared (however volume level was enough to communicate). It was fixed line, not mobile. So it may be something with carrier but it has never happened before with other phones.
Even happened with me!
It's not a problem. I'm sure it's not.
Yes I do agree that on my Xperia Mini and LG Optimus Me (P350) , I could hear louder voice, but the One V is just made like that.
And when I tried to talk to a friend who's voice was always a little unclear and a bit low on One V, the voice wasn't that better on Xperia Mini. :cyclops:
Conclusion - The ratio is same. :angel:
Voice quality of One V : Xperia Mini
1 : 2.
Something is blocking its microphone. Remove the micro sim card cover, make sure nothing is blocking its microphone/speaker such as sticker (not the guarantee seal)

I have the same problem. I guess the front speaker is just really small. Can anyone confirm this? Or is this a problem with my phone?

Is there any way by which the default volume can be increased in HTC one V? I am really facing lot of trouble while talking to people. Other HTC devices like HTC Desire V, explorer has better sound quality. Can the hardware be replaced?
Hi!
I've searched everywhere, but far as I'm concerned this is a hardware issue, but since I have my phones bootloader unlocked the warranty is not an option. My problem is that the front speaker (incall) is making a strange buzzing sound. Not always, i usually hear it when someone says something with an "S" letter in it. I know it sounds silly but that's a fact. I tried lowering the volume with no luck
I found some post about it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2103770
http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/52170
No solution.
I tried many different roms (CWM,MIUI,PAC), nothing helped. When I tried CWM I always downloaded it from FXP site, but one glorious day I downloaded an old FXP rom from CWM main site. No buzzing sound or anything, on the other hand it's a bit low on volume but I can live with that.

Now the real question......
Can Anyone point me in the right direction on what to replace in FXP's new roms so it can sound like the old one, but have all the tweaks and fixes.
Thanks in advance to anyone who answers or at least tries
News!
I know I said it's a hardware related issue. Well I ordered a front spaker from germany
stellatech.com/sony-lt26w-xperia-acro-s-lautsprecher-h%C3%B6rer,a,de,812713.html
It's arrived and I replaced it. The strange noise is still there. Soo i am pretty sure that the phones software overdrive the speaker.
Any suggestions?

Hi, I have Arc S for 8 Months and it was great until today, when i'm on the phone , people say that they can't hear me. and when i yell at them on the bottom of my phone,they can hardly hear me. i have tried the option to turn off noise suppression , my microphone still sounds quiet . i have also tried the phones hardware testing function and it still sounds the same.I have unlocked bootloader so its out of warranty.Is there anything i can do to regain my mics performance?
currently i am on Stock GB(latest).
I really need your help. Thanks

Then appears a service menu where you can test (at least it says so) some if not all the equipment including both microphones.
I guess that if no problems shows you have to flash your rom again or test another and see if the issue its still there.
If your microphone is broken then you should take it to service $
Sorry if i cant be of more help
it seems secondary mic is ok but main mic is not. now how can i fix it?
I still have this problem and i don't know what to do! which part of the phone to replace? please help...
Obviously, if microphone fails in every method, it is the main microphone, which you have to replace.

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with aftermarket parts or their prices.
Im using d855 , from the beginning the call clarity is very poor, calls are having distortion like broken voices
while talking with the phone ear piece. The other end ie the person receiving call is having no issues at all.
Headphone and loudspeaker clarity is better.
Is it a faulty ear piece or a some software problem.
Is there any one else facing the same problem.
Please help.
Maybe faulty, have you tried rebooting and seeing if that helps?
I have to say my G3 is much better than my previous note 3 or Htc one for call clarity

Thanks for your suggestions.
Great to hear that you getting good clarity on G3 than other devices.
Tried rebooting and resetting the device but no luck.
My intention is to make sure whether its a software bug or hard ware fault before handing over to the
service center.

Hi @mpt123
I have the same problem here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/poor-call-quality-distortion-noise-t2808530
But, I can't consistently reproduce it - last evening it was consistently terrible, this morning it is consistently fine. I haven't rebooted in-between so I can't work out what is going on.
One thing is - I do frequently connect and disconnect from Bluetooth headset in my car - and I wonder whether this has any influence. Do you use a BT headset?
Also, do you find it is ALWAYS bad, or is it inconsistent like mine?

Hi, this problem is consistent for me all the time.
I'm using it with my headset, speaker mode and bluetooth , all of these worked well without any problem.
I have given this to LG service center and they confirmed it is due to the faulty earpiece.
They asked me to wait for 3 days to do the repairing . I took it back given to the showroom where i purchased
it, the manager promised me tomorrow they will get it replaced with a new one as my demand.
Also for your information in my case i did reset my mob, flashed it with the European firmware to make sure that the
problem is with hardware.
Hope this information will be useful for you at some time.

Yes I had the same problem with my earpiece. I went to CPW and got it exchanged, which was a bit of a hassle because I had to set the phone up again. Although I do have to say the LG Backup software is actually rather good. Backed up my homescreen layout and settings so not too bad.
However I now have a brand new phone and it has exactly the same issues with crackling and vibration. Almost like the speaker is too loud for itself but it really is not that loud or clear.
Do you think I should try to get another replacement?

I'm interested to know what network you are on? And does the crackling always happen, or is it only if you're in bad coverage area? Or some other cause/factor?
Tonight my phone behaves fine, but I'm worried there is some problem.

I am with Vodafone. I had the same thought just this afternoon and I think maybe it might be a signal problem. It seems to be worse when I am at home where I have full 4G coverage. I am going to turn off 4G tomorrow and do some testing just using 3G and see the difference.
Will keep you posted!

Hi I made a post on the other thread as I have the same problem. I'm also on Vodafone. I'm only in a 3g area not 4g but as I'm using a Three network handset I have no option to just switch to GSM.
I have however tried Skype through wifi and data and the earpiece is crystal clear so I agree this appears to be either software or network related.
Will keep you posted!

I called CPW today and they were great. Took it to my local outlet and they swapped it out for a new handset without any hassle at all. They have a 28 day exchange policy which they totally seem to honour.
Not had a lot of chance to test the replacement, but the calls I have made have been crystal clear with no noise, crackling, or distortion. Will update again after a few days.
To re-cap: I had crackling and distortion on the majority of calls but only when using the earpiece - sometime it was worse than other times. It was always fine when in speaker mode or using bluetooth. New handset doesn't seem to have this problem.

OK thanks
the weird thing is that when using skype its always crystal clear. its just GSM calls, so surely can't be hardware issue can it.
I'm going to try a hard reset, still waiting on the UK rom to download.

I had my phone replacement yesterday with a new one ,the earpiece is very clear though is not that that loud but iam very happy
with it bcz the earpiece on the previous one was so noisy with crackling sounds and i had to use my headphones all the time.
I have seen many reviews with excellent results on call clarity and all , so its shouldnt be a common problem with the phone.
Try to switch the network and compare the clarity , if the results are same then go for replacement.
I have exactly the same problem... All the way here in HK!
There may be a Faulty production batch. Unfortunately the retailers in HK only do 10 Days Swaps so will have to hit the LG Service Center... hopefully it is covered by the Warranty!

I bought it from ebay and the seller has arranged a replacement with Three. Remind me to just pay the extra money and buy it sim free
Got the replacement already! I've tested out the earpiece and definitely no crackle and its loud.
I will test the rest of the phone and hopefully no issues

LG G3 Earpiece Noise Problem
Unfortunately before buying this handset I have not checked about the problems that already exists. I also got G3 with same earpiece digital noise/ buzzing noise problem which usually comes when it first try to connect after dialing the number and then it comes during the call also.
I got 1 phone replaced in Bangalore Sangeetha within 2 days of purchase and the 2nd phone also have the same problem. It seems some batch problem. This is my first LG phone and hopefully the last one.
I have given 2nd phone back to Sangeetha although they suggested me to go to LG center. I don't know where this phone will take me, preparing for a customer court :crying:
I've got this problem with my D850 in the UK on Three, I hear a crack or pop a few times during a call. Has anyone tried turning off noise suppression and voice enhancement in call settings to see if that makes any difference?
I turned off voice enhancement and call quality has improved so far.
