Constant hiss on calls - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I picked up a Nexus 6 recently and notice that there's a hiss on phone calls.
Whether it's using the phone directly with my ear on the top speaker or using a earbud with a mic, I can hear a noticeable hiss on phone calls.
Is this a network problem (ATT) or an issue with the phone?

That is gonna be an issue with the device. I would take it completely back to stock and see if it still does it.

[Q] Earpiece low hiss/crackle

Is anyone here hearing a low hiss/crackle type noise when on phone calls. Almost like the speaker is a little blown out?
This is not noticeable when listening to music etc; only on phone calls.
I'm not sure how common this is or if I should get it swapped out. Though swapping it probably carries the risk of acquiring the other pop/crackle speaker issue
Thanks for any input.

I heard them also.. But seems very commond and seems that 4.2.2 solve all these audio issue ( havent tried myself but read on topics)
I am also having the same issue. I am having this problem on some sim cards(2G). As one of my sim card doesn't cause this problem which is a 3G sim. Though it should not have any problem due to sim cards or network, this problem surely doesn't occur in my 3G sim. Wierd problem!
Me too

I hear a crackle type noise (occasionally) when I'm on calls. It's not continuous. Occurs randomly. It only lasts for a fraction of a second though. is this what you're talking about??

I believe there are different things experienced by different guys. I've read many topics about various sounds.
There is a sound like a speaker does when you listen to music and it stops. It happens after you listen to something (like Beat gets turned off). Like a hissing maybe? I can't descibe it better. It's like the speaker is on high volume and then stops. It lasts for a brief moment and you can hear it if you are near the phone and there is relative silence.
There are also some "pop" sounds sometimes. These sounds sometimes happen when you listen to music.
And there is something else, in my case when talking on the phone there is something like a crackle sometimes when the other person is speaking. It doesn't happen all the time. At first I thought it was because of bad signal but I don't think it's true.

[Q] Switch in call Speaker?

So I fell into water with my new HTC one a few weeks ago and I was able to dry everything out and get the phone working. It was actually almost perfect except for there being some static through the speaker when on phone calls. There is however no static in speaker phone. Well just now the speaker became worse and now I can barely hear people on the phone. I was wondering if there is anyway the speaker can be switch to the other speaker that uses speaker phone while on calls? I have the ATT version but I thought it may not matter.
Yes just use the speakerphone toggle while on a call. Have you done that?

Earpiece distortion during calls

Hey all, I've had my moto X for a couple days now and I've noticed that during calls with the earpiece volume turned up to 75% or higher, I've been getting sound distortions. The distortion is apparent with higher pitched noises, such as when ringing sound is played at the beginning of a call or I can also hear what sounds like hissing in the background. Wondering if anyone else has had this issue, thanks!
Update: I've discovered that the issue is either network or modem related. When using groove ip, i found the call quality to be perfect as opposed to the static i get when call over sprint.

Why is the crackling sound coming from the backside of my phone?

Hello,everyone...
I am using Mi A2 phone. Today when I put backside of the phone near to my ear I heard sounds like high-pitched whistle or crackling coming from there. But the sound is so low that it is audible only in a quiet place without any other sounds around and only when you stick your ear to the phone)). By the way the phone is new(it is just 2 month and I never dropped it)
I am wondering are there someone who faced the same situation?
I wanna know my phone have problem or it is normal
