HTC Incredible :: Terrible Buzzing On Phone Earpiece
Jul 7, 2010
I have a recently purchased Incredible (about 3 weeks) and within the last week the red earpiece on the phone has developed a very severe buzzing noise. Seems whomever I speak with can hear me fine, I just can't understand them. This hasn't been frequent but it is increasing. One day I had an ear shattering high-pitch noise that pretty much stopped all calls and I had to power down the phone. Could this be hardware or software related?

I got my phone today, but I'm having an issue with the earpiece speaker rattling. It makes a high pitched buzzing sound basically. Does anyone else have this problem? If I press on the grill covering the speaker it seems to go away. I'm planning on taking it to a Sprint store to compare.
Let me know if you have any thoughts.

Is it just my phone, I was just on the phone with someone that was on a landline, I noticed it was a little garbly (is that a word LOL) and a little hard to understand, almost like the beginning of each word was cutting off, I decided to put him on speaker phone so I can write stuff down and the phone call was now crystal clear. Anyone else notice that their speaker phone sounds better then if they are not on speaker phone?

Anyone else experiencing a buzzing noise in the speaker during calls? The internal speaker, not the speakerphone.

I was just talking to a friend on my phone and for some reason the speaker started to kind of vibrate/buzz like when frquencies match and it makes something vibrate. Is it just that; there's a certain frequency and it matches that of my speaker? Or is it a hardware(?) problem?

The back of the Droid Incredible looks terrible imo. I like how the N1 looks alot more even if it has differences in the hardware. Thoughts? (Dont flame too bad )

I know I'm not the only one with this issue, but it looks like the red ear piece gets funked up pretty easily. At first I thought it was just a lint trap, but I think it might be a mix of lint and ear skin/oil. Has anyone found any ways to clean that out?

All of a sudden I can't hear anything through calls. I can hear things if I play it through the speaker, but my ear piece doesn't put out anything. Has this happened to anyone else? I've tried factory resets with no difference.

Anyone else have horrible service with this setup? I thought a new radio was supposed to give better service? Im running Skyraider 3.0 Vanilla, with a 2.15 radio and a 2.6.32 kernel. Anyone know a fix or anything?

I have my earpiece paired... I would like to be able to map - push the button on the side of the earpiece to activate the voice dialer... and then when finished another push would end the call.

Anyone else noticing an audible buzz when listening to someone talk when on a phone call? Sounds eerily familiar to a blown speaker. Scary since I noticed it as soon as I got it..... I believe my phone was a return that they sold to me. It seemed to have come with some downloaded apps already (though I'm not sure) and the box was a little worn looking (no plastic around the literature either)
Boo hiss! it'll be 48 hours with the phone on Monday, and I'm getting a new one already

I'm looking for a 3.5 headset/earpiece that will at least answers and end phone calls on my Droid, i use Apple earplugs that are pretty decent, but i was wondering if anyone knew of anything else on the market. NO BLUETOOTH EARPIECES.

When I start my emulator whether in Eclipse or from command prompt, the emulator causes a buzzing sound, and will not exit, I MUST restart my computer. When I add the -noaudio command line option, there is no buzzing, and the emulator will exit perfectly.

I returned my first captivate due to annoying buzzing from the ear speaker during calls. I figured the speaker was blown. On my second one the sound was much less apparent but it was still kind of there. Its been about a week now and I believe it is now just as bad as the first one I had. Are these speakers really blown or just really crappy quality?

I woke up today to my phone being off, I tried turning it on, and it said low battery - I was able to use it for 10 seconds and then it died. So I tried charging it. It has been "charging" for two hours and now refuses to turn on. But now it constantly buzzes every two seconds. I have 3 chargers, so in case the one I was using was broken, I tried the others, same thing. What is going on?
Now before you say that THIS IS THE REASON! My phone was on the sofa and fell into my dog's water bowl, the second it fell I took it out and checked everything. The inside didn't even have a single drop in it. And the little cotton indicator hasn't changed colour. I have small hopes that this can be repaired.
I am just PRAYING that this isn't because of the water. I am always careful and handle my phones well. But the rare times they slip, they fall in the smallest spaces with water in them. Example, my past phone was tipped from the nightstand and fell perfectly into a cup of water that was on the floor, that was JUST big enough to fit the phone. Same thing with the water bowl, out of ALL the spaces my phone could fall on the floor, it falls right into a tiny space of water...

Here's this TERRIBLE BUG, which I suspected and ranted about in my "Re: Over-the-air upgrade WTF" post.

When my EVO is charging it freezes as to become almost completely unusable. Finger presses, swipes, etc. are only barely registered, if at all. Multitouch completely doesn't work. The 4 buttons at the bottom rarely work.
The problem persists across multiple chargers, even the stock charger, and it doesn't matter whether I'm plugged in to the wall or into my PC via USB. But here's the confusing part: the problem only seems to occur when I plug in at work. I've never experienced the problem when charging at home. Is the voltage in my outlets at work somehow screwed up? Too much/little/inconsistent power?
I've only had my EVO for about 25 days, so should I try to exchange it? It would be a pain since I'm already rooted, customized, etc. but it would probably be worth the inconvenience if it would fix the problem.

First of all, for the most part,I like my Evo.It's fairly fast, good ui, and the screen is incredible.However, my battery life is worse than I would've imagined.I take it off the charger around 9am, go to work, use it for about 20 minutes total, kill the apps again before i get off break/lunch. By 5pm, it's dead. 20 minutes of use, and 8 hours standby should not kill ANY phone.Regardless of screen size, if it's 'sleeping' the whole time, it should make it through enough of the day to at least charge when I get home. This has made it so that I can't even use my phone, because I know if I do I have no hope of even getting home to charge it in the evening.I've thought of getting a second battery, but I feel like it's ridiculous to have to buy a second battery just to make it to 10pm if I actually use the phone a decent amount.How's everyone else handling this?

The battery cover is terrible. The rest is outstanding though. 1 feature I didnt know it was gonna have is the FM radio which works excellent.

1st time poster so sorry if this has been discussed.I just got my LG Ally and have never owned a cell phone with such terrible battery life!I am coming from a Blackberry which would last me all day and night.I am lucky if my Ally gets me to noon w/o the 10% warning coming on.I go to settings and check my battery usage and I really don't know what to make of it.Yesterday it showed 93% battery use was from the Android system.Today it shows 81% is the Whoopee Cushion (app).I did use the Whoopee Cuchion app for about 3 minutes earlier today so why is that taking up 81%?I guess what I'm asking is - there anything to conserve battery life?Do I need to turn something off?Change a setting?I did take the advice of a friend and installed Advanced Task Killer but I have noticed NO difference in battery life since then.Any help would be greatly appreciated.And please keep it simple.like you're explaining it to a 5 year old.

Just switched over to a Nexus One from my iPhone 3GS (been an iPhone faithful since they came out,but wanted to see what was happening with Android).I love my Nexus One, but the battery life is horrible.From a full charge, hours later, I'll be at 75% having barely used the phone at all. If I leave it for a day, it's almost dead entirely.I've gone through settings, turned off the automatic syncs, don't have push turned on, brightness is down, location is off,wifi is off.can't figure out what's going on.Sometimes when I pick the phone up after leaving it for a while, it feels warm, as if it's doing something.I've re-started many times,I have a task manager, and I kill every task often.still, awful battery.For what it's worth, the phone takes forever to charge as well. It charges about 10% every hour.Seems like something is wrong, no?

Anyone else having an issue with a bluetooth headset cutting out on the Evo. It started on a call and got so bad I ha to switch to the handset. it also did it playing MP3s right off the phone. This was a $90 motorola unit. So I took it back and picked up a nice Jabra for about $80 (just showing these aren't cheap units). I have not used the Jabra for a call yet, but the music cuts in and out for a few seconds every minute or so. Phone was in the holster on my hip so it wasn't a distance issue, the music is stored on the phone so it isn't a bandwidth thing.

Has anyone else noticed that the voicemails on this phone sound TERRIBLE?I just got the phone last night...it pulled in some already existing voicemails and I've gotten two or three new ones since, and they all sound worse than anything I've ever heard on a cell phone. Do I just have a lemon or does anyone else have this issue?
