I was wondering...if anyone hears a clicking sound when the other party on the line is loud. This is when the phone is in normal mode ie no speaker phone or headset.
Brand new phone, but i feel like its the cone of the speaker hitting the housing or something. I guess it could be a popping sound but is more like a clicking sound and i have to turn the volume down and it goes away. Certain letter anounciations seem to cause this.
maybe i should just get a headset!

Anyone have a problem like this:
I did a had reset but it still is doing this-
The speaker plays my ringtones out loud even when my headphones are plugged in!!
Thanks,
Daniel
Mine has always been like that, whicever ROM I used.
Really????
My old XDA never did this...
So if i'm listening to music I run the risk of having my ringtone play out loud??
Is the only solution to change my ring prefrences to vibrate only when i'm listening to music (since the phone volume itself cannot be muted)??
When I preview the sound it doesnt play out loud
I don't have such problem with original headset. But, if I use bluetooth headset it happens.
So this is not normal....
How do I fix it?
I tried a hard reset- didn't work!!
Playing the ringtone out of the speaker even though the headphones are in is normal with most if not all phones. The headphones are only to listen to music and calls.
If you had the phones in but not in your ears and the phone rang only in the headphones how would you hear it?
Why would your headphones be plugged in if you are not listening to music?? And to answer your question- you would know the phone is riging by it vibrating.
Anyways- many people told me this is not normal...so there must be a way to change it.
Also, when I am in silent or vibrate mode and I accidentaly or even purposely push my Voice Command button the beep sound will come out of the speaker-
It will change the sound icon from Vibrate or Silent to the regular icon but will stay in silent/vibrate mode-
Is this normal??

Not sure about the voice command question but with regards "WHy would you have your headphones in if you're not listening to music" the answer is to use the phone handsfree.
Whether this is in the car (law over here) or while in the office a lot of people over here use headphones instead of holding the phone to your ear, some believe that the safer or healthier. No real proof but handsfree is popular.
Saw this same post on the Neonode forum and the SE's do the same so I presumed normal and as I say if you were using the headphones as handsfree if actually a good thing. Yes the vibrate would tell you but say you're at someone else's desk and can't hear the phone vibrating across your desk (hell of a vibrate really isn't it).
Anyway, hope that answers the headphones question
So why did some people say this doesn't happen to them?
That's an unanswerable question. It could be any number of reasons and going on the state of play with the ROMs is possibly down to this.
Going through the forums its amazing the number of people that have different problems with apparently the same phone.
I have the exact same problem, and am still looking for a solution.
The most irritating thing is that when I turn all ringtones off (only vibrate on) and I receive an incoming call, the sound that is currently playing (windows media player or some other program) is played for a fraction of a second thru the external speaker (the program pauses the mp3 playback on an incoming call, but this happens to late). Because of this it's impossible to use the phone for MP3 playback in a place where it's important that no sound is produced.
It would be really nice to completly turn the external speaker off when a headset is plugged in (i find it really strange this isn't the case right now).
It would be nice if someone found a solution for this (in my opionion) huge problem.
Yea,
I found this is irritating too,
I am using pocketMax Phonealarm
and mute:
- system volume
- phone volume
but max the call volume ( as I think that's required to answer a call)
I plugged my headset (using 2.5mm to 3.5mm jack) and listen the music using winamp & increase the volume, apparently the system volume is increased too ==> I think that's the reason why everytime:
- incoming phone call
- any reminder
is sounded in the headset too.... totally [email protected]@[email protected]#
Any solution for this????!!!!!
Has anyone noticed this: Everytime time the (back) speaker starts playing, you can hear a clicking noise. And when you stop playing music, sounds, etc. you can hear it click again (after a few seconds).
It seems like the back speaker gets tuned on and off on demand. When it's on, you can also hear white noise coming out of the speaker. It stops when the speaker gets turned off.
The clicking is quite loud...it's not so loud when using headphones.
It is either really quiet or non-existent on my phone, since i did not notice it yet.
The best way to test this is probably:
- Quiet environment
- Press the red button (in touchflo for example)
- The will cause a short click, the a beep sound is played...and about 3-5 seconds later you will hear the click again.
true it happens on mine too, never noticed it...
i did like you said, and when holding the phone speaker right to my ear i can hear the white noise and the "switch-off" clicking when the speaker is disabled. then the noise is also gone. But to notice this i had to go to another (quiet) room and hold it to my ear, its really quiet. maybe yours is louder...

Strange. I've been using my Jade for over a month now. Don't seem to experience that problem. No funny sound. Or maybe it's too soft for me to realise.
Thanks for your replies.
I recorded this effect by putting the speaker directly to the mic of my laptop.
Listen here: http://pasalacqua.de/tmp/touchclick.mp3
You can hear the click, then the beep, then the white noise, then the click again (to turn off the speaker).
I put the volume of my phone to low. So the click is actually louder than the beep.
I guess there could be bugs worse than this. But it bothers me when the phone plays system sounds like a simple beep. The click is louder than the sound...
I just wonder if it is a general bug or only a bug on my phone.
I find that the overall volume on the Treo Pro is not strong. When listening through a speaker or even sometimes through headphones.
Now I realize the quality of the recording is a part of it, but frankly for many recordings i can listen with the earbuds on and cranked to the loudest and its still not that loud.
Anyone know of any tweaks to increase the volume out put? I really would love the built in speaker to be louder.

i dont know any tweaks, but i had the same issue, i even called tech support to get a diff phone swapped out, the tech told me to take the plastic piece off because it covers the speaker hole on the screen.....lol....i know how stupid! other then that i dont know anything to make it sound louder besides the keys on the sides to turn the volume up and down. I did notice that the speaker phone gets louder if u have the phone on a table or something. if this info didnt help then sorry for my worthless post...lol
Did you try removing anything covering the speaker? Yes not a fun idea, but if you did, did it seem at all noticable.
Frankly, even with the head phones its not very loud.
Funny bit of information -- if you want more juice out of your headphones, turn the phone off of silent mode, unplug the headphones and wait for sound to come out of the speakers, and than plug the headphone back in... youve now doubled your hearing loss.
Thanks for the tip. Can you restate the steps. Its not clear (and I could not reproduce it.) Maybe it would be more clear if you describe the original state of the phone. Example: Headphones plugged in and mute switched so speaker is muted.
Thanks
Okay here goes, My phone is usually on Vibrate.
Plug headphones in.
Start music.
Move slider to speaker.
Unplug headphones until you hear sound coming out of the speaker.
Plug headphones in.
I noticed this when listening to music on my headphones and i'd get a call, the volume would crank...
Give it a shot, it works for me!
I could have a bunk phone, but if it means anything I'm from Toronto, and i'm using a Bell Treo Pro.
Hi all, wondering if anyone else has this problem. At the outset, I want to note this is NOT the headset crackle problem (where you can hold phone up to ear and hear noises).
When I perform an action, such as pressing the back button on Chrome or clicking a link or hitting the icon to an app, there's a chance that my headset speakers will make a popping noise. This is weird for a few reasons. One, my phone is on vibrate or silent, so it's not the standard "noise-on-button-press". Second, it's coming from my headset speakers, not the standard speakers.
Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a solution? It's happened to two out of the three phones I've used, and I don't know if it's worth it to do another replacement.

My first n4 had that same issue so I called Google play and they issued a RMA. It was just really annoying. And that same one had the noises in the ear piece. My second one doesn't seem to have the popping noise, but does have some noise in ear piece sometimes.

Just wanted to know, when talking to folks on the phone ( coz it is a phone as well, right? ) I get the earpiece to clip or pop when the volume is too loud. Is this normal? I would have thought the software would have prevented this from occuring, or is it that my earpiece is duff? However, when I put the volume lower the pops and cracks go away but then I cannot hear the other party very well as its not too loud.
Do me a favour, next time someone calls you put the earpiece to max volume and come back with results, thanks.
