Background noise on incoming calls but not outgoing.Volume also louder on outgoing - XPERIA X10 General

Several of my friends have said there is a background noise kind of like the wind blowing on my phone whenever they call me. However when i call them back it disappears.
Also the volume is higher on outgoing calls than incoming ones.
Does anyone have this problem/know of a solution? It's getting really annoying..

Did you find a solution for your problem? I received mine yesterday and my girlfriend complained about a noise too... It was like I was blowing into the microphone. It's for about a second, but many times during a call.... Very annoying!
found some threads about this problem too:

edit:
And will it be over after updating? (waiting for the dutch vodafone update)

Hearing reminders when calling

When I answer my phone or dial someone, I hear my reminder sound three times. (Not through the back speaker though)
Very annoying, because then I don't hear what the other person is saying.
Also sometimes my phone gives a vibrate for no reason.
Is anybody experiencing the same?
Is there a fix for this issue?

White Noise in Background Calls

So the phone was working fine for a few days. All calls were clear, however today when I got home and made a call the call was not clear and had a background noise that sounds like a shower. All subsequent calls I make have this background noise and I tried rebooting the phone, putting my sim card in another phone (call was clear on other phone), and tried factory resetting the nexus. The noise still persists.
I was wondering if anyone else experienced this problem and what you would suggest I do. Thanks
edit: Sorry if I wasn't specific, the noise comes in from the earpiece and speakerphone. So it's what I would hear, not the other person. The other person on the line hears me fine without the noise.
EDIT #2: Lol nvm, a reboot fixed the problem.
EDIT: I read Goten's post again, and apparently my problem isn't like his. His problem is with the earpiece and speakerphone being noisy. The problem I'm experiencing is that the person on the line hears a noisy sound during calls.
Does anyone else have this problem?
I noticed that after the update to GRI40 2.3.3 (not sure if it started before that), people are saying that they can't understand me. It's exactly like what Gotenn described. I tested it myself and it sounded as if there's a lot of background noise, kind of like you're near a waterfall or something.
I've downloaded a voice recorder called Tape-a-Talk and my voice recordings are crystal clear, so I'm pretty sure the mic is still fine. Could there be a problem with the noise cancellation mic? Or is this a software problem? I've tried making a call using the handsfree set to make a call, and it sounded good. When I remove the handsfree from the 3.5mm slot, the sound became bad again.
I'm running stock gingerbread 2.3.3 GRI40 on my Nexus One. It was rooted (without unlocking bootloader) when it was on Froyo. It's not rooted on gingerbread because I did not unlock the bootloader.
I appreciate any help that you can give, thanks!

No soundd of incoming call or sms

Hi there everyone.
I am a new user of an HTC Hero.
I have a problem on incoming calls or sms.
I leave the HTC to lock by itself and, when i have an incoming call or sms, only the screen turns on. I can see the number of the dialer who is calling me on the screen but NO ringtone sounds from the phone. The same problem occurs when an sms is received. No ring is sounded by the phone.
I have checked everything concerning the sound preferences and (i believe) that i have not left anything un-touched.
Can anyone please "save" me from madness???
Thanks in advance!
I can't say for sure this is what happened, but humor me for a second and check a few things:
Of course double check that your volume is all the way up.
When you use the volume rocker on the side of the phone, does it beep?
Do you have any music on it? If so, play it without the headphones plugged in. Do you hear the music?
When you turn speakerphone on during a call, do you hear the other person?
Do you hear any of these sounds using headphones? Do you hear people through the earpiece on a call?
If you don't hear any sound from any of the first few bullets, but you do hear things through the headphones and earpiece, it may be the speaker in the back that's broken. Again, this is just one possible cause, but I had it happen to me. I have no idea how to fix it other than to send it back to HTC or attempt to replace it yourself (I don't know how to do this and would not recommend it if you're not comfortable with it!). Thankfully, my phone fixed itself after a few days (well, with a little help, I accidentally dropped it on the floor from a height of about four feet, but again, I wouldn't recommend that!). Anyway, just a thought, hope it at least helps you diagnose the problem.

Microphone issue on Hangout calls

Anyone else experiencing super low microphone volume when using hangout calls on speakerphone/video calls? The other person i'm calling says they can barely hear me.

yes, very much so. I may have found a weird workaround as this was annoying me for some time. You must leave the call screen up and let the first couple rings happen with speakerphone off. Then switch to speakerphone and do not leave the screen or turn off the call screen until the call is initiated. After that mess that i stumbled upon, i could be heard much better when making a speakerphone call with hangouts. Also, make sure not to cover both the front speakers or the mic in the back. Basically you must hold the phone in your hands as I believe laying it down on either face will obstruct mics.... Obviously a flaw that should be worked out I would hop with software or hangouts updates. I have opened a complaint thread on the google hangouts forums. I suggest you go there and explain that you have the problem too so that it may be looked at a bit more...
Thanks, posted on the Hangout support forum, so one else replied and said they have the same issue as well. Unfortunately though, I can't get your trick to work for me, super low mic volume unless I put my mouth right next to the top speaker grill. Hopefully this gets fixed, I think my wife is tired of seeing my chin during video calls.
I'm experiencing the same problem but with WhatsApp calls. It also happen on normal phone calls where there's no sound coming or going out, have to hang up and try the call again.
Anyone notice the speakers are only good at 100%.. Lower it to 90-80% and I can barely hear them, standing at about 1ft - 1.5ft
No news on this? Renders speaker calls on Hangouts, Viber etc useless.
Also, where on Google Forums did you post?
