I will say I bought this phone a week ago and love it but I am having one problem I noticed with the earpiece. I never noticed this till the other day when in a quiet room I went to make call and could hear a slight static or hiss coming from the earpiece before even making the call. Its not that loud but and seems similiar to the Nexus 4 problem. Now this will occur even if you are not making a call just put your ear up to the earpiece and there will be a light static hiss. I went to the ATT store to test their model on display and same thing you can hear a slight static hiss. I am wondering if this is normal since the store display had this and has anybody else noticed this. Thanks Again
PS I have the ATT Version and only notice in a silent area.
Are you talking about headphones? Or a Bluetooth headset

The earpiece speaker when you make a call if you listen in a quiet setting when not making a call you hear like a static hiss sometimes you have to wait about 20 seconds to hear it and I noticed this with the display at a local att store. Thanks
try putting the earpiece speaker up to your ear do not make a call and just listen there a slight static hiss. I am not sure if this is interference but there have been comments on the verizon and sprint versions as well. Thanks
Earpiece speaker?
I'm having a hard time figuring out if you're talking about the phone itself, or you're using headphones.
If you're talking abut the phone itself, then I don't really know...
Maybe you can see a audio out partial wakelocks in bbs? I'm guessing it's something that hasn't shut the speaker off and is still running in the background.
My phone doesn't have this problem lol I hear nothing and I'm on AT&T version as well.

Its the earpiece speaker on the phone go into a quiet room total silent. Then simply act like your going to make a call but dont put the phone up to your ear and listen there is a slight static hiss coming from the speaker. I also posted a link that describes this better than I can. Thanks

Since I have had my Touch HD (T8282), the earpiece speaker makes a "scratching" noise randomly during calls. If i press the speaker harder against my ear it can sometime fix the noise.
I dont get the noise from attached headphones or bluetooth headset during a call so its not the incoming signal.
Should i bother getting it warranty repaired? Is anyone else getting this?
you can try to put off the audiobooster.. dunno if that might help or not.
well i also have the same problem, and audio booster isn't the problem, because i used a lot of romz last months and the audio booster is on and off, but noise keeps coming...
the cracking noise, stops at a random time
Anyone else having issues with the earpiece volume being really low? I used to have an HTC Eris and that was loud and could hear anyone even with the phone sitting next to me on high but this phone i have to push the phone basically into my ear to hear some people.
I was wondering if there is any program that will work with an unrooted Xperia (since I have the R800x) ... I have tried countless things on the market but none of it helps.
Stereo speakers on the side of the phone are loud as hell, it is just the earpiece.

The earphones are pretty ****. When I switch it to my senheissers it seems to be fine.
I am still having this issue.. the phones earpeice speaker is like 25% the volume of the speaker phone speakers. in a silent room I have trouble hearing people. I have no other option but use a blue tooth headset which ends up being 50% louder then the speaker phone speakers.
Anyone found a way to boost the headset speaker yet?
Alright so anytime I call someone the callback quality is horrid! I do install roms on my phone but I didn't think that would of caused this terrible phone call back. The speaker phone works fine. When I talk to people on the phone, they sound like they're talking in a tunnel very quietly. If I turn the volume up, it sounds high pitched and hard to understand what they're saying. Is there any way to fix this?
that happen to me theres metal flakes in the speaker took to sprint replaced speaker for 35 dollars
From Day one i have been trying to get good earphones with Mic for nexus 4
tested out more than 6-7 quality earphones with mic like J6M, Klipsh, etc

I have to keep the mic piece really close to my mouth for a good conversation...
can someone help me here.. the mic on nexus 4 works perfect but when i connect earphones the problem begins... i used mic sensitivity apps to test and they pick very less volume from the connected mic
How do i boost the mic sensitivity on earphones or should i return the phone

I'm having the exact same problem - did you find a fix?
I tried quite a few.. expensive as well as cheap ones. finally i got hold of a cheap ear phone set and the volume to the other end is good to be heard (as I have been reported).. While trying them all, I was calling my friend and asking him.. so thats how I know i picked the best one. However, since it extremely loud.. i kinda have to keep it away from my ear a bit and volume on phone is turned down to minimum.. Plus, due to its sheer loudness, I can hear the buzzing sound.. For the first time i noticed it, i.e.: through these extreme loud ear phones. The other party hears it too. Never heard it while on call directly using the ear piece. Strange.

Do you mind me asking which brand headphones you are referring too here? I have the same issue.
I bought from a local shop. It was a knock off of beats audio. The sounds it throws is EXTREMELY loud.
Is it just me, or does the OP make very little sense? I'm completely lost at what he's trying to ask.. Something about the mic? or the sound output of the "earbuds"?
No trouble here with any of the wired earbud sets I've tried. Clear as a bell and no buzzing.
If its so Loud for you, what are you not adjusting the volume? Would kinda of make sense to do so...
Or you could upgrade in your tech and get a bluetooth earbud.. I have absolutely no problem with volume levels from my Jawbone; I'm hear clearly and I can hear them just find (even when driving with all windows down, it sounds like they are right next to me yelling)

Nope, it's you. OP was referring to the mic volume on the headset being low, but in filthykids response, he mentioned that the headphones that solved the quiet mic is also very loud on the earpieces.
Also having the same problem, BTW.
Hi guys,
Recently bought a Note 3 N9005 and just wanted to confirm if anyone else is experiencing problems with people listening to you while on speakerphone.
I realised after a few days of use that many people are complaining on the other end of the call quality. I sound too low and far away. When I switch off speakerphone the call quality changes drastically on the other end. One person compared the difference as going from a 10 to a 2 when switching to speakerphone.
This has to be a software problem as when I turn speakerphone off and hold the phone away from me the person on the other end says I still sound loud enough. This points to maybe the volume level for the mic is set too low, but I could be wrong and it may be just my phone.
I'm coming from a Note 1 which has excellent call quality on either end with speaker phone. Because of the size of these phones I tend to use speakerphone a lot and very reliant on it. I also noticed at max volume there's a bit of a vibrating sound during volume peaks on speakerphone also, but that is not an issue as it's plenty loud at one notch lower.

Your experiences are appreciated guys.

On my end it's fine. It's the other end that has trouble listening, which leads me to believe the mic on the Note 3 during speaker calls is not set high enough.
I think i've worked it out. This only appears to happen on calls with another person who's phone is also compatible with HD Voice. This did not happen with a normal voice call today. The other end could hear me just fine.
This could be crap if it really is only happening with HD Voice calls as more and more phones are becoming compatible with it. Hopefully it can be fixed with software if it's the case.
Thanks for weighing in though Baste07, appreciate it.
Just go to settings, sound, call, uncheck noise reduction option. Now you can talk 5m away from your phone with crystal clear voice
Solved
So I followed the instructions here regarding the sound noise reduction thing and worked as planned, after done everything possible, including factory reset and opening and cleaning the hardware, I had a hitch that wasn't hardware, so yes it was the new system. If your phone loudspeaker microphone isn't working is because the noise reduction feature inside settings. Look up there and remove it.
