Whether it's the earpiece (call speaker) or loudspeaker (media/ringtone), audio problems are frustrating. Here's a systematic fix guide.
Quick Checks1. Ensure volume is up and not in Do Not Disturb mode. 2. Check if Bluetooth is connected to another device. 3. Remove your phone case — some cases block speaker grilles. 4. Clean speaker grille with a soft brush.
Software FixesRestart your phone. Go to Settings → Sound and check all volume sliders. Test in Safe Mode to rule out app interference. On Android, clear the Phone app cache. On iPhone, toggle off "Phone Noise Cancellation" in Accessibility.
Hardware ReplacementIf audio is distorted, crackly, or completely absent after software fixes, the speaker module needs replacement. This is a 20–30 minute repair at Xigox, starting at ₹399 for the loudspeaker or ₹499 for the earpiece, with a 90-day warranty.
