Mild buzzing sound from the phone speakers - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I got my Google Nexus 4 yesterday. Today, when I was making call, I noticed mild buzzing noise from the phone speaker. I thought it was due to the call, but i could hear it even when I was not in a call. I then rebooted the phone, the mild buzzing sound was still there.
The noise does not seem to be there when the phone screen is locked, but as I press the power button, I can hear the noise.
I don't hear the noise in the headphones though. I was not charging the phone when I heard the noise.
Does anybody else have this issue?

I have this too. It's a low buzzing sound coming from the ear speaker even when the phone is on lock.

This is already being discussed here

Noisy earpiece speaker

Since I have had my Touch HD (T8282), the earpiece speaker makes a "scratching" noise randomly during calls. If i press the speaker harder against my ear it can sometime fix the noise.
I dont get the noise from attached headphones or bluetooth headset during a call so its not the incoming signal.
Should i bother getting it warranty repaired? Is anyone else getting this?
you can try to put off the audiobooster.. dunno if that might help or not.
well i also have the same problem, and audio booster isn't the problem, because i used a lot of romz last months and the audio booster is on and off, but noise keeps coming...
the cracking noise, stops at a random time

DHD Crackly speaker

Ok so recently when I talk to people over my phone they sound very crackly. It doesn't happen over loud speaker and it's everybody who rings me I struggle to understand them.
If I turn the volume right up it sounds very distorted.
Someone suggested water damage but I've never even had the phone out in the rain so i cant see that being the problem.

[Q] Static Hiss LG G2 Earpiece

I will say I bought this phone a week ago and love it but I am having one problem I noticed with the earpiece. I never noticed this till the other day when in a quiet room I went to make call and could hear a slight static or hiss coming from the earpiece before even making the call. Its not that loud but and seems similiar to the Nexus 4 problem. Now this will occur even if you are not making a call just put your ear up to the earpiece and there will be a light static hiss. I went to the ATT store to test their model on display and same thing you can hear a slight static hiss. I am wondering if this is normal since the store display had this and has anybody else noticed this. Thanks Again
PS I have the ATT Version and only notice in a silent area.
Are you talking about headphones? Or a Bluetooth headset

The earpiece speaker when you make a call if you listen in a quiet setting when not making a call you hear like a static hiss sometimes you have to wait about 20 seconds to hear it and I noticed this with the display at a local att store. Thanks
try putting the earpiece speaker up to your ear do not make a call and just listen there a slight static hiss. I am not sure if this is interference but there have been comments on the verizon and sprint versions as well. Thanks
Earpiece speaker?
I'm having a hard time figuring out if you're talking about the phone itself, or you're using headphones.
If you're talking abut the phone itself, then I don't really know...
Maybe you can see a audio out partial wakelocks in bbs? I'm guessing it's something that hasn't shut the speaker off and is still running in the background.
My phone doesn't have this problem lol I hear nothing and I'm on AT&T version as well.

Its the earpiece speaker on the phone go into a quiet room total silent. Then simply act like your going to make a call but dont put the phone up to your ear and listen there is a slight static hiss coming from the speaker. I also posted a link that describes this better than I can. Thanks

I hear a low noise sometimes in headphones

Hello..lately i'm posting a lot here on xda xD
When i plug in my headphones, sometimes i hear a low noise when I touch the display..this noise i hear only in the left headphone
I tried another pair of headphones and i don't hear this noise, but when i connect speakers from pc and turn them at maximum volume there is present the noise but very very very low... just on my original pair of heaphones is a little more loud
And another thing about this noise, when the phone is playing some sounds(like playing a game, or watching a video) this noise disappears or probably i just can't hear it :-??
Is somebody else who have this problem?

Galaxy S8 Clicking noise coming from earpiece

I recently started to hear faint clicking/ticking noises coming from the earpiece while having phone calls on my S8 (I heard those noises in the past but I thought they were caused by the other person on the call).
I downloaded an app called "Earpiece" (that lets you listen to music trough the earpiece instead of the speakers) and the ticking noises persist (even if I'm not having a phone call).
What's even weirder than that, I actually discovered that the earpiece makes those noises all the time (even when I'm not listening to anything and I'm not having a phone call), but they are not that loud.
I found that if I turn Airplane Mode on (without Wifi enabled), the noises stop. To give you some concrete examples:
- Connected to network( + WiFi on): Earpiece makes those noises at all times.
- Airplane Mode on + Wifi on: Earpiece makes noises at all times.
- Airplane Mode on + WiFi off: Earpiece doesn't make any noises. If I listen to offline music trough the earpiece (using "Earpiece" app) there are also no clicking noises.
* Those clicking noises don't have a constant rythm (they sometimes stop for a second or two).
*If I press my ear to the earpiece a bit, I can hear them very very well.
What do you think might cause this?
Thanks.
I am also suffering from a similar issue.
I haven't much noticed if it is there with wifi on or off etc, but it is really irritating.
Samsung says if you can prove we can refund, but it is really difficult to prove. I have noticed that when I press the phone hard on my ears the noise diminishes but doesn't go away.
is your problem solved, please share an update or any other please suggest a workaround.
Thanks
even i am facing same issue after updating to 8.0 beta version
Strange clicking from my Samsung S8+.
I have been hearing a strange clicking sound from my smartphone. Not being used or on charger, it makes this clicking sound that is very quiet but others do hear it. Is there an app that would cause this?
Having same issue seems to be the WiFi makes faint clicking noises while it's transferring data back and to anyone resolved the problem. Only an issue while I am on the phone
I have this issue as well- but it is so quiet you can't hear it unless the room your in in pretty silent
If you open the camera app and listen to the call speaker it gets alot worse. Think it's the WiFi mechanism vibrating against the outo focus mechanism of the camera
