Loudpseaker Unusable incall - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

My loudspeaker is so pathetic that it is unusable whilst driving in call, is it jut my Mi 5 or is this the same for eveyone? the volume is very low and the other person struggles to hear me. Faulty device or a Mi5 Problem?

Surely 1 of the 22 people who have viewed this can tell me if they have the same issue?

Poor Call Quality

Anyone else here having hissing/crackling in the background on calls with people?
I have checked settings, I'm not roaming, and the phone is stock out of the box.
With the speaker up to highest and 2nd highest setting I can hear hissing and crackling on several calls. People on the other end say they can hear themselves echoing as well.
Tested a Nexus S and iPhone and both don't have the problem.
Wondering if its just a bad device or issue with the quality of the speaker in the phone(which HTC is known for)
To be more specific, the dead air(in between conversation) sounds hissy/crackling.
I can also hear myself in the earpiece when I talk.
Tried same SIM on nexus s and iphone 4(no problems)
erhm.... LOL?
idk where ur livin or what kinda of provider ur using, but im like 100% sure no one in holland or surrounded (since i dont know the state of other country's have this problem)
so no...
Thank you for that informative reply....
Hi! I wrote it before, because i have the same problem in Hungary... People say they dont understand what iam saying... Echoing everytime.. i try it with another sim it wasnt better...
What can we do whit it??? Iam very angry about it!

your very welcome, and most likely its your provider not the phone, forgot to finish my sentence sometimes im busy and forget to add the rest of what i wanted to say.
Turns out, if the volume is turned up anything beyond 50% of the volume rocker, the sound distorts and can hear very low crackling.
With setting 50% and below crackling is not there.
Maybe a blown speaker? Can anyone test this out on their IS so I know whether to swap it out or not.
Thanks
With the higher volume than 70%, i can hear a little crackilng... So, same problem!
Same problem here, but not with all people (60 % problems ; 40 % - OK.), just with some of them (Nokia users in special)

Eco (is heard by the person that I am talking to)
Waiting for new feedback about crackling problem...
Just bought one of these and made first phone call. I always have earpiece volume on full on every phone I have and I could definitely hear a faint but noticeable buzz / distortion from earpiece when other person spoke.
Oh well I've got 7 days to find a fix or it goes back. I wonder if these are faulty units or all incredible s devices do this.
Can owners who don't have this problem at all chime in ?

no, its software.
Heres to hoping they fix the low headset volume, and High BT volume experienced on some headsets (that last one is my biggest gripe with the phone)
turkishness -> In my Nexus 5 I haven't got the same sound volume concerning the SMS and when I play a video. I think (hope ) it's software issue
Now we just need to wait for the rollout to start and for some nice chap to post the ota zip and then we can all sideload it right away.
I think the sound problem is software, they just won't let us turn it up loud enough.

no, I don't have this problem.
try cleaning the speakers at the top and bottom gently with a soft toothbrush.
I was asking about rom/unlocked as there are some apps/tweaks you can install to improve sound, but all need root.

The person on the otherside can hear your voice loud for two factors, one is the cellular connection is really great and second one is the in-call volume is set to max. And you're listing the voice loud as you've mentioned that the volume is set to maximum. I don't see any problem here

Exactly, I do not expect much, only I can hear properly and that the other side would hear me as well, before I had heard of the iPhone 5S much better

Nexus 6 Sound Problem

Hello friends. I bought a new Nexus 6 two weeks ago. Unfortunately, my device has decreasing sound problem. When phone's charge is below %20 or 30, speakers volume suddenly decrease. How can i solve this problem?
I have this problem too. I found out that putting my phone to battery save mode sometimes can help.
I will love to get more solutions though.

That's normal... the solution is to charge your phone.

How you say it is normal? If it is normal why other phones doesn't have this problem?It is very annoying problem. You say me "use your phone always with 70 percent charge?". It is not the solution.

The Nexus 6 does this for some reason... You can blame Motorola. I haven't seen any solution.
Let me rephrase... For the Nexus 6, this is normal.

Why would you want to blast your speakers when it's at a low battery %, do you want it to die faster?

He's just saying that high volume degrades battery life faster. I think Motorola built it this way to save battery.

I see blanco. But it happens nearly all volume settings. For example my sound is on level 8 suddenly decrease level 2, or is on level 6 again decrease level 2. And when watching youtube videos if i rotate the screen suddenly increase level 8 again and after three or four seconds again decrease level 2. Really so interesting and annoying. But my charge is over %30 sound quality is so good.
Is there any solution suggest for this problem?

Last month I was having the same sound issue but also the screen shifting to two images.. after reading up on a Motorola's nexus 6 forums I found someone switched their kernel to Leankernel and their issues were resolved. I now have no sound descreasing issues or display problems.

I am using the following version:
V3.5 dated 1.27.16
Here is a link of the one I use, this is from my pogoplug account:

I have never had any issues whatsoever. I was having issues too where when listening to music or watching a video and I rotate my phone the audio would hesitate. That issue was also solved on this.
Hopefully it works for you. Let me know how it goes.
