If I turn up more than halfway with certain audio {music and videos} the speaker distorts. Like a crackling sound. Anyone else experience this? Guess I need to return.
Look over all the sound settings first but it sounds like that one is going back...

So someone just called me, and I could barely hear the ringing. I checked the Volume settings, and I had ringer volume all the way up.
Then, I noticed that the ringing was coming out of the earpiece instead of the speakerphone speaker.
Here's where it gets weird, though... Someone just called me as I was writing this post, and the ring came out of the speakerphone speaker like it's supposed to...
Additionally, when I'm using my new Samsung bluetooth headset that worked just fine before the update, i can hear the person I'm calling, but they can't hear me.
Is anyone else having weird audio issues?
Yes, I am having similar issues. All audio comes through the earpiece. Very annoying as I like listening to music on speaker phone but I can barely hear it through the earpiece. I hope there is a fix for this soon.
I am lucky I do not have this issue, but I think they were trying to prevent all of the blown speaker issues that have been posted about. Just a guess. Maybe this earpiece issue is a side effect
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
same problem
hopefully someone can look at this and fix it
I've had my DHD since they came out last November and I've had no real issues with it in all that time. However, I've now got a hugely annoying issue with sound where all sound, ringtones, music etc, comes through distorted at max volume where before it was clear. The obvious suggestion is to turn the volume down but even two steps down from max. volume it still happens depending on the sound coming from the speaker. I don't know how else to describe it except perhaps tearing and that doesn't sound very accurate to what is happening.
I don't remember when this first started happening but I'm pretty sure it was a few months ago and I was using a Sense based ROM at the time. The issue got so bad that instead of playing distorted sound in Sense it would just cut out and all sound would stop for what seemed like two or three minutes. Switching to CM7 has prevented it cutting out but the distortion is still there so I don't think it's related to a specific ROM unless it's a volume boost that was done over all ROM builds. As anyone who owns a DHD will know the audio has always been a little on the quiet sound but the level I have the volume at now is below what I'm comfortable with.
Can anyone offer a suggestion on how to fix this audio issue? It's almost to the point now where I'm thinking of going back to stock and sending it in for repairs. Don't make me do that.. you know it's not a fun process.
I'm only replying to this in case anyone has similar issues so they can see my resolution. Unfortunately it's gotten worse, to the point that I lost all sound on all ROMs bar a few squeaks from the speaker. The in-call speaker worked fine and I could make calls with no issue but no notifications, alerts, alarms etc would sound on the external speaker.
I flashed back to stock Gingerbread and I've sent my phone off to HTC, via T-Mobile UK, to be repaired. I'm also hoping they fix the misaligned camera issue too. I'm a little worried because despite trying I could not get S-ON back before I took it in but it's using stock bootloader and an HTC RUU ROM. Anyway, I'm basically saying that it's a bad sign and will have to go in for repairs. Hopefully this will save anyone from wondering in the future if they get the same sort of issue.
I'm having the same problem.. I think.. if you are talking about the speaker that you make the phonecalls with.. not the "external" speaker.. that works fine..
it has a crackling sound with mine.
Sounds like the external speaker is busted. You already send it to repair, probably that's the only solutions.
When I was listening to music earlier and watching YouTube, I heard a pop noise come from my speaker a couple times... My volume was only at half, so I don't know what the problem is. Does it sound like a hardware problem, and should I exchange my phone?
Also seems to happen sometimes when I start a song with Google Play Music and turn on the volume from silent
My G3 also makes popping noises and sound quality in general is pretty bad compared to most other phones I've had. I wonder if this is a known problem and if they have an easy fix.
I've noticed that as well. During a call I noticed that the earpiece speaker does not sounds good at all. It sounds like there might be something loose inside of the phone. Anyone else having bad phone call speaker quality?
Same here with the earpiece speaker. It was really frustrating. Strange was the fact that the problem was gone when I removed the back cover Also after HR the problem has been gone for a couple of days.
I had to get my money back for the device.
Every time I record audio with my phone (mostly voicenotes on whatsapp) the sound is really bad, I can hear myself clearly but I get so much background noise, and If I record a song that's playing it sounds real loud and messed up. Nobody has ever comlpained about the sound when they talk to me on the phone but compared to many other phones I've had I find this one to have bad mic quality. Am I the only one who feels this way? if not then has anyone tried some sort of fix for this? (assuming my phone isn't actually broken lol)
Is anyone else experiencing speaker issues when trying to mute an app with sound(games). I have 3 apps so far that all have the same issue. When you turn media settings all the way down, you can hear this subtle noise from the speaker, best way to describe it is white noise(like a quiet fan spinning is the best description)? It only occurs when the app is open and when I close it the sound goes away. I didn't notice it until I was in a very quiet room and now it has been bothering me ever since.
