So i've been a lurker to these forums for a while now and I noticed quite a bit of people having problems with their ear speaker cutting out.
I solved the issue by replacing the speaker with a Moto L6/L7 speaker.

Is there any way of improving sound quality from the standard speaker on the HTC TD ?
The speaker works but is very tinny when compared to other phones in hands free mode.
Is this a hardware issue, and hence nothing can be done, or is there a software frig that will help sound quality ?
hi, it seems when ever a sound question is asked no one seems bothered or have covered it a million times before. I asked the same question and had 300 views without an answer. Sorry pal but if its a sound question i fear youll have to ask in another forum as it seems taboo here. Im currently using my spare diamond and testing some other speakers inside it as there is so much speaker room its untrue, when i find , If i find a good one with a good fit ill pm you and let you know
cheers for now
let me know too when you finished testing please.. btw how much room is in there ? (dimensions)
We need a response from the pros at this.
cos im not ready to pop it open just yet lol

Can't you just post a guide here so everyone would know?
U can increase the sound level using tweaks in Advanced configuration v3.2 but sound quality will decrease .
i think this issue related to the hardware, not to the software issue.

usally with these things you will find if you dont get an answer
then the question has been asked a million times before and everyones
fed up of answering it.this question has been asked since the
diamond first became available.
best to use search first and if nothing comes up thats relevant
then post a question.
thanks for your help guys.
I would, as I am sure others to , be interested in a public posting if you find a speaker that fits and improves the sound quality.
perhaps this can help, woudnt try it myself tough

Nice, but it looks like a gsm phone. My cdma phone looks like I need to remove the entire internal back cover. It looks like one piece.

I disagree . The question of low sound has been from a software , tweak point of view but i asked about replacement speaker inside the phone itselfd from another phone as theres so mcuh room i could pack for a weekend away as well compared to many other phones
Did anybody try that mod or changed the speaker?
i d be curious to hear if it really improved the sound
I used to have a Samsung i730 (WM5) which had "SRS WOW", a software solution that helped with the perception of lousy sound. It did work quite well in making the speakers sound better. I don't know if that could be easily ported over.
Unfortunately, I no longer have that phone.
Not sure how this affects the quality.

Ahh, never mind. Plenty of people on the SRS case with no consistent solution found yet: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=417636

I opened up my phone , and i opened the speaker also (first cutting step in the movie).
But next, after inspecting the main speaker housing it seems to have multiple connections wich lead to a black foil covering the housing.
I assume this foil is used as antenna for one or more of the phone's radio's/recievers.
So i assembled it back again without cutting a square trought the housing (step 2) as that would cut a large hole trough the antenna foil.
Volume gain from only opening the speaker (first step in the movie) is not noticable.
HI !
I just bought a DVP a week ago and though I'm very happy with it, I wonder if there isn't a problem with one of the bottom loudspeakers.
To put it shortly, the right one seems to work perfectly well but if I cover it with my thumb or whatever, I realize that the left one emits at a poor volume in comparison.
I thought this problem could come from the fact that they work as a two-ways speaker, the left one being dedicated to high frequencies, the second one to mediums, but frankly it hardly makes sense IMO.
What about you guys ? Do both your speakers emit the exact same sound and volume or do you have this difference too ?
Thanks.
One is a speaker one is a mic. I think it's the one on the right that is the speaker. Can't turn it on at the moment. Its still pretty loud imo.
Sent from my Venue Pro using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Hey, thanks for the quick answer Kenji, but both of them are speakers according to the user's manual... (implying that user's manuals are always right, of course)
Still no clue on the "should I send it back" question...

Don't read too much into the user manual. There's only one loudspeaker, the other grill is for the mic, just like on the iPhone.
I believe one is speaker, the other is mic. At least they were/are in my experience with four venue pros.
Well, what a relief ! That wraps it up.
Thanks for your answers, all of you !
Come and see all issues I found in Nexus7, we'd better check if it's common ！？
Recently I bought six Nexus7 for me and my pals.
All these tablets are inspected by me to make sure there is no bugs and bad pixels , and I found some issues randomly.
I am writing down these issues to discuss with you guys: is it commonly happened or accidental?
1,when charging with the cable, if your ear gets close to the back of nexus7, you can hear some currency noise?
2,knock the back slightly with your finger , then you may hear the sound like a loosened spring inside it , especially near the rear camera .
3,when launching the CAMERA and do the focusing, still there is noise from the rear camera , is it because there is some equipment working for focusing?
4, is it easy to get dust into the machine and the screen?!
IF you have similar issues, pls tell me !
thank u!

1. No
2. No
3. Not that I can hear
4. Only if you take the back off
None of these issues here.
Was there something wrong with the other issues threads you saw? Or you just thought yours were special?
I wonder how you discover these on yours - sounds like you were looking hard to find something wrong with these devices!
None of these issues here - I have a 16GB model.
I am usually really picky when it comes to products I purchase. But this makes even ME laugh a little bit. Sorry man but I don't think those are "issues". More than likely what you are hearing is the mechanism inside the camera moving around.
Thread Closed
Ok folks, there are already several existing threads scattered in the forums discussing this exact same topic. Issues with the N7.
Use the search button, or browse the thread titles in General and Q & A and you'll find them. Please post your issues in there, and not create another new thread with the same old stuff. XDA rules ask you to search first before posting new threads. Why? Because it makes for more accurate search results by keeping the amount of threads to a minimum.
As for this one....

Hi everyone, new to xda.
Long time reader, but first time poster.
I picked up my OP2 yesterday and love it, bit noticed 100% of sound coming out of the loudspeaker comes out of the right side grill. So when I cover the right side, all of the sound us muffled
Is this normal? I've tried playing music where sound should only come from one side for a few seconds and I can hear the full song.
Any help is much appreciated
Never mind all! Did not realise the two speaker grille illusion. Got me good one plus!
Yeah, the left grill is just for symmetry. Happens a lot in phones, iPhones got it too (for those questioning the spread of this 'trick').
So, here's a problem I have with my G4.
There is a painfully loud crackling/buzzing noise coming out of the speaker whenever a sound is played (even when a silent audio file is played).
This doesn't seem to be a software issue (as I've done everything software-related to resolve the issue)
Has anyone ever met with this kinda issue?
Thanks
yep, same here
I just attached a plastic clip on the side of the speaker
which looks kind of weird but if does its job
no more voice cracking

I was actually planning to tear down the bad boy, as my warranty is voided since day one (BL unlocked).
Seems to be okay for now... No more crackling for now
