Randomly my speaker got grainy with low quality sound. My phone has been no where near water and I haven't dropped it. Do you think this is a random hardware issue and if so is it covered by att warranty?

My speaker doesn't sound amazing either and where there should be bass it sounds droned out or something as if you were playing music louder than the speaker can handle.
Yea same with more crackling on lows

Think your speaker blew? I'm guessing that's what's wrong with mine.

I don't think so unless it came blown out. I don't use my speaker to listen to music ever so unless a ringtone at max volume blew it then that isn't the case. I just don't think the speaker is very good and cannot handle full volume with any song that has any bass.
That happened to me on my Touchpad, when I installed a custom ROM, it "fixed" http itself. Have you tried a reset maybe? Or if you are rooted, flash a new rom?

Do you think it's a rom that's doing it? I mean it didn't sound any louder than normal and then just randomly starting to sound like low quality and the speakers blew. I'll try a new rom or stock soon.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
Not sure, but that's what fixed it for me. I was running the stock ROM, so I doubt it was the ROM. Maybe something that needed to be cleared. Just trying to offer a possible fix, can't hurt to try right?

Yes my speaker sounds so bad. I just traded a Nexus 4 for this Note 2 and I like the note 2 more in every way other than the blown speaker. I'd replace it my self if i knew it wouldn't blow again. Let me know if you warranty it.

haha yea that's about exactly where I'm at
It's not a fun situation... the speaker went in my phone that I had just gotten to replace the previous one when the screen died! I couldn't talk to my gf cause her voice would shriek in my ear in between sounding tinny. It's awesome, I'm on my 3rd Epic, and I have to reset my sensor manually every time i flash with this one... and her original bought the same day as mine works flawlessly :-D. Might want to re-odin to stock before taking it in though... warranty n all.
Okay so I finally installed a new speaker in my evo but they don't sound that loud like the original. Did I do something wrong?

Probably.
Why didnt you just take the phone to a sprint store? Your phone has a 1 year warranty for hardware defects like this.
Depends on where you got your speaker from. Was it O.E.M.? I installed one that I purchased and it sounded like ish, so I bought another. I've since replaced it 2 more times and finally got an O.E.M. one from a member here on xda. There really isn't a "wrong" way to put it in.
Sent from "The EVO" using XDA Premium
There is a wrong way lol when you assume the numbers go right side up you make that mistake. I did that the first time then fixed it. They don't seem as loud but they are clear. I'm still wondering about it though. Bought them from Gc something company. Five of them.

Honestly, I wish I could tell you. This last one I put in was a factory speaker straight from another Evo, O.E.M., and it still doesn't sound right. I know its in right, and the same speaker. It does sound better than the bootleg aftermarket one I bought tho.

So did the beats audio files every really work on our phones?
I personally couldn't tell the difference, but it may be because I didn't put the files in the right spot because I placed them in the folders myself, not just flashed the .zip.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Beats audio is a built in equalizer which sounds like poop unless you can control it. That I think on phones its all software not hardware like on laptops. I have the DV6 from HP with beats and stock its terrible... had to adjust and even then it likes to dim when treble is too high and sounds stupid.

You both know nothing about audio. Beats are only popular because they are well advertised and look cool. There are much better headphones and audio drivers. The epic does not even need this placebo crap because we have a wolfson audio chip.

Or better yet The older Skull Candy's reason why is the company who makes the speakers for them changed a afew years ago so now they don't sound as good as they used to.
But I really like Klipsch. I have their Pro Media 2.1 for Pc Has some good hard hitting bass.

Don't have them, but thought some of you may be interested. Personally, I thought the ones that came with my phone sounded pretty good. When I have bought some, though, I usually get skull candy.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA
I got some $20 skullcandy headphones on amazon that work great. I also have some vmoda ear plug type that I got back with my original iphone. I like the sound but when I put things in my ear they get itchy. I'm not an audiophile but since I am working on my masters in engineering I know a few people who do a lot with audio and they all say beats is a marketing gimmick. I've personally never put on a pair though.

Something we can agree on, this guy in my speech class said he had paid 400$ for them b/c of warranty and he says the sound amazing, and the bass is good I wanted to laugh so effing hard and state some damn facts of how ****ty they are regardless it his opinion but clearly he hasn't listen to some good damn headphones. I think in all honesty my damn 80$ Klipsch s4's sound better than that POS. The bass go outs in one ear in the beats, design is ****ty. Must I Go ON, with Build Quality.
Its all about the speaker drivers and architecture it uses. The amount of impedance it has, OHM's, etc...
There are two types of main speaker drivers and they are dynamic or something else I can't remember but its more like actual live sound the Klipsch x10 use them if I'm not mistaken

Are you trying to argue for the sake of being heard? I specified what they were equivalent in, they're both garbage. I even went on and gave more descriptive words to define their laughable "quality". Please read carefully or dispute with a bit more of intelligence, but please, do state if you're like 13, I don't find myself a point in arguing with children. Lol, I know you may be slightly butt-hurt / bitter because it was your money that was spent on skull candy's, I'm not hating on the Brand, just the quality sound it lacks to offer. I'd sell your skull candy's to some noob/sucker and invest on some CX 300's on Amazon, you'll want to marry me for recommending such an amazing affordable choice.

Dude.. do you not review products before you buy them?? Beats headphones are a pure marketing ploy. While thy have really good build quality, the sound they output is worth MUCH less than they retail for. We have Beats headphones at work and a few friends have some beats buds. I have a $100 pair of Sonys I bought 3 years ago that blow any of the Beats headphones out of the water.
Do your research. Unless you don't care about sound quality, you have much better alternatives out there.

To be honest you should really look into Klipsch brand buds they are honestly the best bang for the buck headphones i have ever purchased and they come with a 2 year warranty! Who does that?! I researched and tested many and they have the hands down best sound quality for under 100$ you can hear distintive tones and pitches simultaneously and hear high and lows while having some noise canceling ability.
have stuck to this brand for 3 years cauase they are awesome.

The external speaker of the Note 3 is one of its weakest links - its a known issue. I had to turn my volume down as I thought the speaker would bust, it occured more with male deeper voices than females.
One other thing, when you remove the back cover see if you have a clear film over the speaker, remove this also.
