S8 low earpiece volume problem - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

Hello. I have S8 G950F. 3 months ago my earpiece started to crackle and now i can barely hear when i'm talking with someone.
So i replaced it with brane new, but it remains the same. I can hear louder from the back of the phone.
Anyone have any experience with this?

Do you use a cover? Or did something slip into the female?

problems with earpiece speaker

When listening to calls through the earpiece speaker the sound often sounds like it's blasting. Does anybody else have problems with the quality of the earpiece speaker? If it sounds good to a majority or you, then I will send it back to have it replaced, any responses would be appreciated.
CRACKLE
I have had 2 and they both crackle...I have been told that the earpiece speaker quality in these types of phones is not the best!!! So change for a another or put up with it. Mind you only need to keep the volume at minimum and you hear all calls as clearly as you should.
maybe its just o2
mines crap to
sending it back for replacement.
its supposed to be v good on this phone , why would they make it crap and everything else so good?
My 9100 has the same problem. I'm on my second 9100...the first one just died after a week for no reason. Now I'm on my second one and the earpiece speaker sounds like crap on full volume. (It wasn't the case on the first handset.) I work in a loud environment and I need a loud phone. (The spekerphone is absolutely useless too.)
I'm getting really annoyed with this device!!! For $700 I would at the very least expect it to work!!
Also, does anyone else going nuts over the lag when dialing from the touch screen? When you touch a number, it takes ages to show up on the screen...if at all. It was fine on my JAM.

My speaker is making crackling noises

My phone is just sitting here, and I started hearing this low crackling noise. Anyone else have this problem?
My external speaker busted out of no where after a week, sounded like a blown speaker rattling. Took mine to a sprint store and they replaced it with a new one.

Galaxy S7 Edge Microphone VERY quiet / or no function !

Hey guys,
i got my galaxy s7 edge since release.. but now it seems to have issues.. When I make a phone call, the other one can't here me. I have to go on speaker mode, then my microphone works.
I did a whatsapp record and in another recording programm. The mic is sooo quiet and has very bad quality. I even't can't here me clear. It's very noisy.
Anyone knows how to fix it? I just tested it in safemode and restarted the phone. It doesn't work..

Nothing surprises me anymore regarding this phone.
I think that they screwed everything with the "mighty" waterproofing.... microphones, speaker, earspeaker etc everything is too f***g low and muffled
Really huge disappointments gathering more and more each day.....

Yup I think it definitely has to do with the waterproofing.... We do have three S7 edges in our house and mine shows lower when recording voice memos than the other 2
Many people have issues with microphone after latest update to Android 6.0.1 - in the past, similar problems were solved by turning off noise reduction feature, but with this update the option has been removed from settings and the result is poor quality of voice.
With latest Android 5 it worked without problems (on waterproof Xperia Z2).
My microphones works great, but the loudspeaker is much quieter than on my Note 4. Anyone else with this issue?
I compared my S7 (935FD, stock, rooted, Xposed) side by side to my S6 (stock, no root), playing the same youtube video at the same time, both at maximum speaker volume...
The S6 is slightly louder than the S7 - it is noticeable but not significant.

S7 Edge Exynos (AU) - Problem with speaker and earpiece

Hi,
I have been having issues with my earpiece (very low and distorted sound when receiving calls) and speaker (distorted/crackled sounds). Brought the phone back to Samsung Store on Sunday, and after 2 hours assessment, they agreed I have a faulty phone and got replaced with a brand new phone. Two days passed without problem, but today the crackled/distorted sounds came back, both the earpiece and the speaker.
I noticed the issue relating to the speaker when wet, but the phone (both my 'old' one and this brand new one) have NEVER EVER EVER got in touch with any water whatsoever in any amount.
I have been googling for this issues but found nothing. Am I the only person having these issues? Am I just extremely unlucky to have two brand new phones with dodgy speaker/earpiece?
Same problem here. Speaker sounds ok on all three frequencies.
The problem is only there when I am talking to someone via gsm network. Not on viber or listening to music. Please note that I have used same gsm network number on other phone and it works well.

Cracking noise during phone call

I've used my new s7 edge for about 1 month and I noticed this persisting issue.
During phone calls, I hear an annoying crackling noise. If I turn to the speaker this sounds stops so it only comes from the phone ear speaker. I remember this same issue back in the s4 days which was a speaker hardware problem and people were having their speaker replaced.
Any ideas anyone?
I have The same problem
Me too. But when i put vol down about 80% this annoying sound disappears. it think is a HW problem, propably on full vol, speaker is vibrating. Other day I have the same situation on S4.
Hello,
new s7 edge exynos with the same problem here.
I have the same distortion crackling at maximum volume lvl in every call.
Disappears at lower lvls.
I tried the Low Frq test *#0*#, both 100Hz and 200Hz having this issue,
At 300Hz sounds better with minimun crackling.
Did anyone find any solution to this?
Should I send it for replace or something and try another, or it is waste of time ?
Thanks
It is a nougat issue. Hopefully be fixed soon

If any of you have ever had your front glass replaced, I ran into this issue as well. I took it back to the company that replaced the glass and they replaced the ear speaker. Now everything sounds great at any volume. The explanation I was given was that in order to replace the glass, they have to heat the phone to soften the adhesive. Sometimes, the heat can damage the speaker coil wiring or short it out.
May not fix EVERYONE, but this is simply MY story.
Thanks!
Solution for cracking ear speaker
Hello Guys,
I had the same issue on my Note 8 and solved it simply by just placing my mouth on the ear speaker and blow and suck (light blow) repeatedly.
Cheers.
