Hi
Is this issue allready raised?
During a phone call I can hear a significant background noise like if it would be a "not good" connection. But my counterpart is hearing me quite nicely.
The noise is there IF I call somebody than it is significant and realy to loud to "overhear" it.
On the other side if a get a call, there is nearly no noise at all.
All testing was done with 2 different phones and alwasy the same counterpart
Therefore I hope that this could be influenced by a better finetuning of the firmware/radio.
any idea - trick - recommendation?
Best regards,
dingolino
i'm having the same problem.
Whenever I call someone, I can ear a low noise similar to radio static in short bursts...
Haven't noticed if the same happens when i'm receiving a call so I will have to test this.

Radio interference kind of noise in the handset speaker when on a call..
I have a similar problem on my HTC Desire Z. I got this phone 2 days back in New Delhi, India from a HTC dealer (no worries about the source here). I'm using it on a GSM network (Vodafone). Its a beauty, with excellent call quality and clarity, superb screen resolution and colors, great speed and very good build quality.
But for one single nagging issue...
When on a call, sometimes, the handset speaker starts giving a soft dull crackling sound.. radio interference (like the one you hear when you bring a handset close to unshielded speakers). It stays on and may or may not go away during the call. Sometimes this noise is not heard at all. I have tried changing locations, holding it at different angles, switching off all wireless (blue-tooth and WiFi), using another network's SIM card and played around with all the settings and options within the handset (like turning off cell broadcast, selecting 'GSM Only' network etc).
But the problem remains.
This noise is not there when I use the headset. Its also not there when I use the speakerphone (when using the speaker phone, the device uses a second speaker and not the regular one on the front of the handset).
Even though I plan to write to HTC today and try and get a replacement device, I thought I will try looking for a solution too (though there are hardly any leads on this on the internet). Does anyone else with a HTC Desire Z face this problem, of radio interference sound on the handset speaker?
If anyone knows of a solution, please do let me know. Thanks in advance..

Hello all:
If this has been covered or solved elsewhere, could you please refer me to said thread? Anyway, I have a problem where my girlfriend's 8525 emits its own GSM noise into the call. I.E. you'll be talking to her, then suddenly you here the GSM interfeerance. It varries from mild, to annoyingly loud. Sometimes, it cuts out, then resumes after a minute or so. That is not consistent however. That phone used to be mine, so I noticed it coming through the earpiece, however it was too soft to bother me.
One more thing. I noticed that windows system sounds appear to be piped through to the caller as well. I'm thinking, that if there's some registry tweek to disable that, perhaps it will also prevent the GSM noise from being piped through. Just a suggestion.
By the way, this phone is sim and sid unlocked and has the HTC rom, V3.54.255.3, and radio V1.54.07.00. Thanks, gladly appreciate any help or suggestions.
Is it only me or is everyone with HD experienceing noise during a voice call. The other person don't complain about it but at my end there is always a distorting noise from an earpiece during a voice call like a an electric interference. (and this is irrelevant to my location or signal strength - I get it everywhere).
should I get my HD replaced by Orange ?
I also experienced the weird electronic interference sound, but only twice so far (I've had the phone for over one month). The person on the other end couldn't hear it either time, and it only lasted a couple of seconds. It hasn't been a significant problem for me and I haven't heard it in a while.
I can also confirm that strange noise appeared during calls at least few times in last month and a half of usage. On some occasions I would hear my own last word being distorted and on others simply static-interference effects. Nothing too bad, but it does happen.
Hi all,
I've experienced this too.
1. Which ROM version do you use ? I've upgraded mine and the noise disappeared.
2. Yesterday I heard that noise again (first time for 10 days), but it was very silent and about 3-4 seconds. Then I realise that the noise is coming while in call ONLY when I am at home.
So I think that there might be some problem with the operator cell covering my house.
Anyway ..... try to find suitable NEW ROM for your phone ....it will make things better I hope.
Good luck!
P.S.:
Old ROM : 1.14.405.0 WWE
New ROM : 1.14.479.3 WWE
It's OK now
i just got a HD mini.
a permanent sound noise like quiet "fshshshsh" at phone calling duration is heard both from speakers and head phones and it resume 3-5 second after phone calling too!
i did the Update for HTC HD Mini Ring tone clarity enhancement but its like before . any HELP??? any one have this problem like me ???
help me plz
Plz Helppppp
Yes it is true.
It makes some noise, at the time of calling as well as at the time of soft reset (restart). Update for HTC HD Mini Ring tone clarity enhancement also does not make any changes in this noise.
I think its antenna hardware make this noise, but also I observed that in some areas like my apartment basement and lift as well as highway tunnels, where most of phone does not show any operator signal, this phone works as well as you can make or receive calls in those areas.
This is just my observation, just try it and let me know.

Oh tnx man,
i was very worry about this,

I just bought mine and it have the same problem?
Is this normal? or some don't have a buzzing noise problem?
Hi!
I have a problem with my new Play. If i make phone-calls by GSM connection, there is a very noisy sound in the background.
Its like you put a phone next to a bad shielded loud-speaker.
Is this a general problem of the play, or could it be a technical failure of my phone?
Maybe some people can check this out for me by switching in the settings to GSM-Net only?
big thanks!
no one noted this problem?
WCDMA works fine for calls, but if the phone switches to GSM at worse WCDMA signal .. the problem occurs. I'm not shure .. is it normal, or a failure?
would be really nice if you can try this with your Plays .. tomorrow is the last day i can give it back to store for a new one.
How to switch to GSM only: settings -> network -> mobile network -> net-mode -> GSM only
I'm not shure about the accurate translation of the setting-names in english.
best regards
I have the same problem with my play. I haven't find one solution yet.

I switched to gsm only yesterday because it gives me a better signal at work. My voice calls are crystal clear. No problem at all.
I also noticed this problem. A background buzzing noise. I've just followed your advice and tried setting the network mode to GSM only, no buzzing sound. Then I tried WCDMA only, and still no buzzing. Finally switched back to auto and the buzzing returned.
So thanks for making this thread as it's prompted me to change the settings and no more annoying buzzing. Finally I'm on Orange UK, which should be the preferred option (GSM or WCDMA) for me to use?

hey guys!
some news!
i contacted SE support, and they told me, its definitely not normal!
So i went to a shop of my provider to get a new device .. and now? no more noisy sound at GSM! It was a failure of the device! Not shure if hardware or software bug.

Really? I'm having the same problem too... noisy static noise during phonecall (not that loud, but noticeable - and it occurs only at my end)
I own several phones before and commonly place calls at my usual location (medium to strong reception) and never encountered any issues with my previous phones (motorola and htc).
The thing is.. I can send it back to check (and I have a 2 years warranty) - but maybe I'll check with one of my friend who own an xplay to compare if the static noise is there still...
Checking on Google I found several other Xperia model that also have similar issue (Xperia Mini with it's videocamera recording static noise) - and also in phone arena where they mention of the xplay static noise as well (http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/Sony-Ericsson-Xperia-PLAY-4G-Review_id2838/page/3)
It's really frustrating...
Anyway thanks for the info.
Update
Ok I've tried using earphone and I made a call. Everything was crystal clear. On the same call I disconnected the earphones and checked the earpiece, static noise and crackling noise was there. It is highly a hardware issue. Tested both on GSM and Skype.
Update
Sent the phone back for warranty, and got it back within 3 days. Earpiece issue was fixed. Sony SC even upgraded my ROM to 2.3.4 (videocamera with autofocus now!) and threw me a nice 2012 Xperia calendar
When you call granny, does she keep saying "Huh?! Wut?!" or does the conversation flow pretty well? Rate this thread to express how you feel about the Xiaomi Poco F1's call quality. A higher rating indicates that calls are clear and crisp, and that regardless of background noise, you can hear the other party clearly (and with ample volume) and they can hear you.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Which network are you using.
With Vodafone in Mumbai I am pretty impressed with the signal and call quality
Using Airtel and Jio in Mumbai. Call quality is really good. Very impressed with clarity even on speaker call.
I'm using tata docomo and live in pune
Call quality is good, I can here the other person crisp and loud and vice versa.
One thing I'd like to mention is, there's a beep sound during the call when the call is longer, say 10 mins, and a couple of words said by the other person are not audible during that beep!
I think this is network related coz had similar issue with my nexus 5
Bad voice call quality
Using it for last 5 days, Airtel Bangalore.
Lot of problems. Echo. Call drops. Low sound. Noise, etc.
Didn't face any problems with the calls. Quality is great.
Could anyone screenshot the incoming call screen. I have no idea what Xiaomi/Poco F1 Call app looks like when you get an incoming call
Call quality was good on 9.6.14 but since i update to 9.6.22 very bad call quality low volume cuts with full signal strengh.
I'm in France i have tester with free and orange
I've heard of Chinese phones having problems with mic/call quality because of noise cancelation being enabled. If u have a soft voice, it will sound low to the other person so u might need to speak up. Sometimes people will make a mod to cancel it if root is available. Would not be surprised if it also happens with this phone but that is definitely one of the first things that xiaomi or any company should prioritize since it is a basic function for a phone and the main reason why most have one
No issues in Croatia tele2 network
quality is very good on jio network, earpiece is loud and clear no problem so far.
I have an annoying buzzing sound coming from somewhere near the ear piece, underneath the screen...
Call qulaity is not good
Also my mobiles speaker is not working.
I have the latest Global beta installed and have since 2-3 Versions of the beta program sagnificant call problems. I can hear the other person clear as it should but the other person hears me double like an echo. I´am in germany and using Telekom as provider. Does anybody have an trick or work around ? Would an other ROM as Lineage help to resolve the problem ? I must always talk by Headset.

Faced similar above aaid call clarity issues.. hence reverted to 9.6.14 version. Oreo. Now experiencing good voice clarity and signal coverage. Data downloading speed good too.
"I have an annoying buzzing sound coming from somewhere near the ear piece, underneath the screen..."
Hey, is it only during phonecall? I think i might have the same thing if it is, buzzing or high-pitch sound when calling with someone. Over both normal network or wifi (whatsapp etc). I wonder if its Hardware or software issue.
not impressed with the mic or the ear speaker i find the mic only picks up voice if mouth is right on the location and even then lot of people have said to me i am quiet and the speaker i have had to turn it up to almost max (no it's not my hearing i had that tested week ago it was fine)
i thought it might be faulty handset but few friends also picked up these phones and said they had to get rid of it due to poor sound quality as well as signal issues which they never had either problem with there htc phones
I'm very happy with the call quality! But I had really quiet phone before and my opinion can be based on that. Right now I can put my phone away withour the loudspeaker and I still hear what's going on
