sound distorted while on phone call?

I have only had my rezound a few days, While on the phone the earpiece speaker sounds distorted, almost like the volume is to loud and the speaker cant handle it. I turned the volume down but that didnt help either.
Hard to explain the sound really, the voice coming from the earpiece is not clear, It would be like buying a cheap $20 kmart car speaker and hooking it up to a alpine tuner and cranking the volume all the way up.
Anyone else have this issue?

I had the same issue. RETURN IT NOW! Seriously take it back and get a new one. I took mine back, mine had the earpiece problem and it sounded like a blown out speaker. My new one is perfect!!!

[Q] During video chats, sound keeps going to ear speakers

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had this problem. While video chatting on the new hangout or skype, the sound keeps jumping from the phone speakers to the ear speakers. Needless to say this is a huge hassle as you keep the phone away from your ears when you're video chatting. The front ear speakers are significantly weaker than the back speakers and this makes it very difficult to hear.
Since this happens in 2 different apps, I'm thinking it's an s3 issue and not an app issue. For Google hangouts, you can choose to use back or front speakers. Reselecting the back speakers is a temporary fix. But then it will automatically jump back again... Very annoying since skype doesn't have a temporary fix like that.
Anyone else have this problem or a fix? Thanks in advanced!!

[Q] Speaker noise

I noticed when pressing a button on this phone and put the speaker to your ear you can hear some noise through the speaker. Like a low hissing sound. Then after a second it stops until you press another button.
Also when playing a YouTube video or game and turn the volume all the way down you hear the same noise. Infact if you run a game and go back to your home screen the noise is there until you quit the app.
The noise can only be heard if you put your ear to the speaker so it's not a major issue I just found it strange and wondered if everyone's is the same?
I just checked and the noise does stop when going back to the home screen from a game. Yesterday when I tested it the noise was still going. Must have been a particular app.
Can somebody check this on the z2 to see if this is normal? Thanks
You have to put your ear to the speaker to hear it, its just a slight hissing sound.
It happens when pressing the home/back/multi tasking buttons or when typing on the keyboard. Basically whenever the phone makes a button press sound and the speakers become active to play the sound
its totaly normal for the hissing sound to exist however some speakers can output the sound alot more easier than others and some you cant hear it at all
its normal for it to be heard from Z2 Unless its very louder than it should be, it should be only noticed using headphone or putting your ear very close to the speaker

Thanks for verifying that Envious, i can only hear it when putting my ear to the speaker. While i am here i might as well get your thoughts on another issue lol There is a thread that's just been posted on here about the bottom speaker being louder then the top speaker. Is this a hardware issue or just the way the phone is designed. Its something i noticed the first day i got the phone.

i actualy dont know
its definatly hardware, i did ask sony Service centre about the issue and since my Z2 is going to be sent for repair ill see if they actualy fix the Bottom speaking being louder than the top one which i did say was a problem and that they will test
it doesnt seem to be an intentional feature since the phone has dual stereo speakers, its anoying listening to music when mostly the audio is one side
Yeah its something i notice when playing games or watching videos. I will try to get a replacement from the retailer and if that fails then i will send it into sony. The vibration sound is definitely too loud on my z2 and i'll get them to check the speaker. :good:

Weird white nose like sound only while using earphones (edit: without earphones too)

Hy guys!
I've just noticed, that if I use my Nexus 9 with my earphones (edit: without earphones too, I've put it next to my ears and heard it), I get some white noise like sound for a short time after opening an app, going back to home screen or watching videos.... (Almost always, while watching video, than constantly)
It's quite quiet, but a bit annoying.
I'm using CM12 nightlies but I heard that also on stock ROM.
Am I the only one?
Is there a solution for this to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
Nope, you're not the only one. I get it on my bluetooth headphones on both the N9 and my old N7. Don't know what causes it, but it seems to be inherent in android.

Yep, can confirm I've had this happen. I thought I heard white noise when my headphones were plugged in, but I wasn't quite sure. This seems be a problem with both speakers and headphones, so definitely a software bug. I have not experienced this on my nexus 5, but I'm not sure if it's nexus 9 only.
My Nexus9 LTE has the same issue,
I always hear noise with earpiece while doing actions( such click item, etc..)

Greetings,
The sound quality of this phone trough the external speakers was really loud. Now after the update, its kinda average (like any other phone on the block). Anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks
