Galaxy S5 :: Earpiece Speaker Rattle During Calls?
Aug 15, 2014
I just upgraded from an S3 to an S5 a few days ago and I'm loving it so far. One thing that's bugging me though is that whenever I'm using my phone as an actual phone (Who actually makes phone calls anymore, right?!) there is an annoying buzzing/rattling/almost kind of like distortion) when the person is talking to me. It usually goes away if I turn the volume almost all the way down, but this is obviously not a practical option since I'm not always making phone calls in a dead silent room.
The speaker phone works fine. This only happens when I'm using the earpiece. Is this normal? Is it related to the camera autofocus sensor rattle? Are the sound vibrations from a person's voice enough to set off the rattle? It's really annoying as I tend to make phone calls a lot and I don't like using speaker phone or a headset. This was never an issue on my S3.

The past week I have noticed all my phone calls have been muffled coming out of the earpiece speaker. If I turn on speaker phone then I can hear the conversation normally thus eliminating any volume or software issues.

Does nokia 1280 has both earpiece and speaker? Or has only the speaker?

The earpiece speaker buzzes like it's blown and I don't know what's worse. Dealing with the buzz or getting a refurbed atrix. Anyone else have a buzzy speaker?

I have bought the Atrix 4G in February 2012 and my warranty has expired in JuneRecently the earpiece speaker on my phone has stopped working and the local motorola service center advised me to replace the flex cable that houses the earpiece speaker. Can someone let me know where I can procure this flex cable in the US? Is it available for online ordering?

I was sitting at work the other evening and heard a phone ringing. It was very faint. I looked all around and it turned out to me my Razr. It was ringing from the earpiece speaker for no reason. No text, email, call, Nothing... The only way to get it to stop was to hold down the power and volume keys and do a reboot.

Ive seen people complain about speaker phone automatically being on when they answer the phone. However my problem is sort of the opposite. When I am on a call and using speakerphone is randomly shuts off. I dont realize it until its the other persons turn to talk and I can hardly hear them.

My LG G3 has been acting up lately. I can't hear a thing through the earpiece when I'm making and receiving calls. Call quality is okay because I can hear clearly if I put it on speakerphone. I don't know if this is a software issue or hardware. I'm afraid that when my phone is heating, the earpiece is getting damaged or something.

Everything functions fine on my iPhone 4 except the native phone app. I can dial out and answer calls. However, I cannot hear any sound coming out of the earpiece or speakerphone and the person on the other end of the line cannot hear me and the iPhone shows that we are connected. I use apps like Skype and Viber and I am able to make and receive phone calls fine. I can hear the caller and they can hear me. I restarted my iphone, I did a hard reset. I even backed up my iphone and restored it to default settings and the problem still persists.

I have found that the earpiece volume after the JB update, when you pick up a call is very loud and can't be lowered unless you rock the volume buttons during the call. Even if you leave the volume low during the call, on any subsequent calls the volume reverts back to being very lound and you have to do it all over again. I didn't have this issue on ICS. I did notice it on the leaked OTA before the official OTA also. When I reverted back to ICS after the leak and before the official OTA, the issue fixed itself.

I've had my AT&T S6 since launch. Paired my Jawbone ERA just fine. Made phone calls, voice commands, just fine.
About a week ago making calls using BT earpiece started getting wonky. The audio has a brief fade in and fade out as people talk. It also has a bit of an underwater sound.
Restarting the phone makes this problem go away for a short time then it returns. Before we throw up our hands and say "must be your BT device" let me share this...
1) Bluetooth audio between earpiece and G6 is fine for music and Google Maps - just seems to be on calls or using Google Now voice commands (EDIT)
2) When the fade/warble occurs and when a call is started, I hear four ring tones in a row. Restart the phone, make the call via BT and I hear two ring tones and BT audio is normal.
Because the BT earpiece was working fine a week ago I presume a recent update did something but the varied ring tone would suggest something with AT&T.

I am already extremely hard of hearing and need every bit of extra volume. I can reset media volume as long as the bluetooth earpiece is not turned on, but as soon as I turn it on, it resets to a little more than half way up. how to change this?

When making or receiving calls, I found that they could hear me, but I couldn't hear them unless I was using Speakerphone or Headset.To solve it, I plugged in the Headset and made a call. While on the call, I used the BlackBerry button to select 'Activate Handset'.

As of 3pm today my ear speaker stopped working but only when I make a call. I can still hear my music and sounds and ringtones but when I connect to a call it doesn't work at all.
I have tried the windex/alcohol method, tried the plugging in and unplugging ear buds, tried the turning on and off the speaker phone and still nothing works. I also tried a hard reset and still have the same problem. The only thing I haven't tried is a full blown retsore and was hoping to get an answer here before trying to restore the device. I have an iPhone 3Gs. Anyone here have any tips or thoughts as to why this stops working on calls only and works fine on everything else?
I can hear the keypad when dialing but as soon as I hit "Call" the speaker just stops working.

why is the speaker sound so infuriatingly low?
whenever I am outside and I get a call, I can hardly hear it. And yes, I have the pocket mode ticked on to make the sound higher. What is the point of creating a high-end mobile phone when you miss out on calls because of the speaker being so lousy? My old sony ericsson (not even a smartphone) had much higher volume

Since I performed the last software update a couple of days ago I can only hear calls through the speaker or through the plugged in headset. I've tried resetting but the problem persists.

I got a brand new Xperia z3 and I was really really happy about my purchase, at least for the first 5 minutes, when I realised that the top speaker makes this buzzing sound during calls or listening to music. It is really annoying, tried everything with the settings but nothing changes.

I am posting on my friend's behalf as she is having phone troubles that started yesterday out of nowhere. During the day she was making / receiving phone calls fine and noticed no problems with her phone. However in the evening she took a call and couldn't hear anything until she turned on speaker phone. Since then we have not been able to get any phone calls to come out of the normal earpiece, just from the speaker. It almost seems as though it is a weird setting or something as the phone seems to be aware of the problem. Whenever she answers a call now it is immediately set to speaker phone when she hits the button to accept the call. If we then turn off speaker we can no longer hear the caller. I looked through all the settings and can't find anything. She assures me she never dropped the phone between the last normal call and the first time she had the problem.
