Pixel 2 XL Speakerphone while in a phone call - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

Has anyone else noticed that while you're on a phone call. If you place the caller on speakerphone... The callers voice sounds at what you might expect to be 30%-50% of the volume (even after raising speakerphone volume to 100%), the callers voice volume on speakerphone just doesn't sound loud at all, not even at 100% volume.
Is there a fix for this?
Is Google aware?
If anyone can share their thoughts about this, please do.

Had this exact same thought. Haven't yet tested on the November update.

It's the same on Nov. I rooted and installed Viper. Enabled xLoud on Phone Speaker and it's better. Can't understand why Google didn't enable both speakers for phone calls, like they did for media.

It's probably because only the bottom speaker is firing so it's literally half the volume you would expect.

I have the same problem with volume on speaker phone calls. I don't like the idea of a new driver (Viper) that requires root.
Are there any other solutions?

Bump for an issue I've noticed now that i use the speakerphone

[Q] EB13 Sound Issue

So someone just called me, and I could barely hear the ringing. I checked the Volume settings, and I had ringer volume all the way up.
Then, I noticed that the ringing was coming out of the earpiece instead of the speakerphone speaker.
Here's where it gets weird, though... Someone just called me as I was writing this post, and the ring came out of the speakerphone speaker like it's supposed to...
Additionally, when I'm using my new Samsung bluetooth headset that worked just fine before the update, i can hear the person I'm calling, but they can't hear me.
Is anyone else having weird audio issues?
Yes, I am having similar issues. All audio comes through the earpiece. Very annoying as I like listening to music on speaker phone but I can barely hear it through the earpiece. I hope there is a fix for this soon.
I am lucky I do not have this issue, but I think they were trying to prevent all of the blown speaker issues that have been posted about. Just a guess. Maybe this earpiece issue is a side effect

hopefully someone can look at this and fix it

[Q] Increase in-call volume

Is there a way to increase in-call volume past the default maximum? I tried disabling voice privacy, using Volume+ and manually editing build.prop, all to no avail. I'm running the VZW (LTE) Galaxy Nexus.
Thanks!
Wait on Samsung to use decent speakers in the GNEXII?
I agree it's annoying. The speakers (earpiece and external speaker) are junk. Shocked that they actually sourced such crappy hardware for a "flagship" phone.

I think my phone is defective. I can't change the IN CALL volume while on a call. Using the volume rocker, you see it move up and down on the screen but the volume stays the same.
I have the same problem
I'm really frustrated. The in-call volume on my phone is so quiet, I can barely use it unless I'm in a quiet environment. I have installed volume+, which works great to boost sound level of rings, noises, and music playing from the speaker. But the Volume+ settings for bluetooth and in-call do nothing.
It's funny... when I'm on the bluetooth speaker phone for my car and call someone, it's loud for the first ring, and then much quieter from the second ring onward.
If someone could help fix this problem, I would be extremely grateful.
Thanks,
Kevin
I'm still on stock... so that might be my problem. I have a Motorola Oasis BT and love it, but when I hit the button for voice dialer, it's always at half volume. It resets back to that EVERY TIME! I hate that it can't confirm what it thinks I said. I've dialed so many wrong people... UGH! This has to be a Google issue. I only wish CD+ worked with 4.0. The programmer told me there is no way it will ever be updated to work.
The sound volume through the BT is nothing like my EVO. Even my loud talkers I can barely hear now even on the highest settings.
I want to root the device and hope something comes out to fix it. I drive a truck and need to hear without having to pull off the road.

Skype Audio Issue G4

I just bought an LG G4 and Skype has an issue with audio. When in a call the audio mutes when the other person is quite or not talking. So if they whisper or talk quietly Skype won't even pick it up. If I have the volume on my phone low/medium I won't hear anything. Even when they speak. If I have it maxed then I can usually hear everything. I use ear buds by the way.
Im having the exact same problem..
I just got this phone two days ago and I've noticed that when I'm in a call on Skype or Hangouts that the incoming audio gets muted every time I speak or when on medium to low volumes. It's become really bothersome because I can't tell whether I'm in call anymore unless the other person speaks. Is there any way to turn this off? The noise suppression and voice clarity options have no affect on this at all. I'm using headphones when in call. Also I should note that this doesn't happen on my old broken phone so it must be something to do with the G4. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What? I dont understand, my software version is v20g-tur-xx, which is in h815tr. Is that from the software?

What's wrong with the call volume???

So everything about the watch is beautiful except for one annoying fact. Whenever I place a call or receive a call, the sound of the other person is so low, that I can hardly hear them. I have the volume on my phone on high for phone calls and music plays loud on my watch, so what is the deal?
Has anyone else experienced this?? Should I go immediately to the store and get a replacement ASAP? or is this a bug that is common with the update or fixable?
Help a girl out, please!:fingers-crossed:
Have you tried adjusting the volume during a phone call on your phone? I think you have to have an active call to be able to adjust the bluetooth volume.

loud beep when ending speakerphone calls

Here I thought Google would have fixed the loud beep that occurs when ending calls via speakerphone by now, but it appears the issue is still present with the Pixel 3a XL. Anyone know of a way to prevent this other than to not use speakerphone?

It's the same tone you hear in your ear on the handset, just amplified on the speakerphone like any other tone... I don't find it disruptive or even bothersome, I like it so I know the call the disconnected.
This beep isn't present on the Q betas so hopefully they will fully get rid of it.

I don't mind a beep sound but it's just really loud!
