Lumia 620 speaker volume pulsing

I've noticed on my 620 that the volume pulses up and down when playing audio through the speaker on the phone. It's more evident when the volume level is low (between 1 - 5). It sounds like when a compressor is acting on the signal with a slow release.
I did see someone mention this on another forum so it might not just be my phone.
Solved!

Hi everybody!! I'm a new user of this fantastic nokia phone, and yes, my lumia 620 have the same issue that many of you mentioned: listening any kind of song, expecially in part where the dinamic of the song is low, i can hear that "compressor effect". I do also hear a "pffffffffffffffff" sound that is ever present under the song
I've updated all of the application possible, did try the soft reset and the hard reset but the problem still remain.
..please, mr. and mss. nokia support team, could you please seriousely check if it's a software or a hardware issue?!
I think it's in nokia's interest solving this issue as fast as possible, or they will see thousand and thousand of fantastic lumia 620 "coming back home" for a problem that maybe could be solved with a software update!
thanks and let all of us know!

  • My Nokia lumia 620 top volume button got faulty, I...

    My nokia lumia 620 top volume button somehow went inside the phone and I can't increase the volume, its stuck at 0! Is there any way on Windows Phone to increase the volume without the damn key? I need a solution because my warranty is in another town and I won't be there in a week.

    I get the issue is annoying, but maybe you should look into getting some different shells. Besides making a fashion statement it'll fix a broken button in no time.. (well a few seconds that is).
    Besides.. choice is always good.. As a Dutch national the colour for the next few days will be.. Orange..

  • Lumia 620 Earpiece Volume

    dear all, i found that my lumia 620 earpiece volume is very low/soft. i can hardly hear what the other party is talking. volume is at max. any solution to this?
    listening to music is ok. this problem only occur when making/receiving phone calls..

    When your in call ensure the volume is at max not just the ringer tone.
    Alternatively you can reset device if you wish.
    If your phone is unresponsive, or it gets stuck showing Nokia logo, then try this: Press and hold both the Volume down and the Power keys for 15 seconds. This should get your phone to restart properly again. If this does not help, then follow next steps to perform OS reset.
    Warning: Resetting your phone will return it to the same state it was in the first time you turned it on. All your personal content in the phone, including text messages and apps that you been purchased and downloaded (may be re-downloaded again) will be erased, and the phone will be restore to the factory settings.
    Here are two options to follow, depending on whether you can access your phone's Settings screen or not.
    Option 1: About menu
    Use this option if you can access your phone's settings.
    This option warns about data loss.
    On the Start screen, swipe left, select Settings > About > Reset your phone.
    Option 2: Hardware key combination
    Use this option if you forget or lose the password.
    Use this option if the phone fails to fully switch on when pressing the power on key.
    Note: No warning about data loss!

  • Lumia 620 music volume not changing..

    I've lumia 620,sometimes the music volume is set on constant level but it is only for audio songs(downloaded from Nokia music or pc ). But if i play music from nokia music/or play videos,games,metrotube... The volume does changes except for music from music+videos. Restarting phone stops the issue for time being but it can not be a solution because it happens every day.(i have tried reseting the phone from settings->about) it doesn't solve the issue.

    Go to nokia care when you are facing the problem DO NOT RESTART THE PHONE..(otherwise the issue will be solved for time being)... they will do so called software update..(its like formatting the phone only rarely a firmware update)  and the issue will be solved for some time but that is not a long term solution..(the issue comes again after some time).... i did it twice now gonna do it 3rd time if the issue pick again i am gonna pull them to consumer court...

  • Lumia 900: Speaker volume too loud, headphone volu...

    I know this issue has been posted before, but I wanted to see if there are any updates. There was a firmware update to fix the purple hue problem, and was hoping this that this issue would be resolved along with it, but no such luck. The external speaker cannot get quieter than 7/30. Anything below that seems to do little or nothing. The alarms are scary loud even at 1/30. I can't turn music at work because even the lowest volume is WAY too high.
    The other problem is that the volume out of the headphone jack is way too soft. I have to bring the volume up to 30/30 to not have to crank the volume to a deafening level in the car, for example. If I forget to bring the volume down to 1/10 when I get out of the car, I get startled by a loud notification. It's a constant game of going from 1/30 to 30/30 and back to 1/30. It is very frustrating! Can we expect a fix for this sometime soon?

    I agree there is a volume bug on the Lumia 900 - I have had my black Lumia for about 5-6 days now. I used my previous phones as my alarm in the morning and wanted to continue to do the same with this device. With the preinstalled alarms app, regardless of whether I have the volume at 1/30 , 15/30 or 25/30, when the alarm sounds it is incredibly loud. Not a very good way to wake up in t he morning so I am currently still using my IPhone as my alarm clock. Let's get a bug fix out for this Nokia; I am having to use a 3GS to pick up your slack.

  • Nokia Lumia 620 Product Fault

    Hi,
    I have a Nokia Lumia 620 that I brought in early Februrary from Expansys and a month later it got a broken power button. First I sent it to the Nokia service center in Canada and they said that it wasn't from Canada and they could not repair it. I can understand this. Then I sent it to Expansys USA and they had the phone for a bit and then they sent it to China. I am about to recive the phone and the power button has not been repaired because it has been demmed user damage. This is a product fault, look how many people have a broken button with the Nokia Lumia 620:

  • Volume Button Not Working on Lumia 620

    Today my volume rocker switch on my Nokia Lumia 620 stopped working suddenly. It was dropped a couple times today as I was at a concert and people rushed past.
    The volume switch feels spongy when pushed in and only adjusts the volume when pushed down painfully hard. But it happens with both my covers, so I'm maybe wondering if it's an internal hardware issue? When the cover is off, the two small buttons can be pushed down easily, it's just the rocker switch on the covers that don't work. Anyone know what is going on with it? Sent from my 620.

    Hi, Mozilla. Just to clarify, you've tried 2 different back covers on your Lumia 620 and you still experience difficulty pressing your volume keys, right? Only the technicians can confirm if there was an impact on the internal hardware of the phone. Saying this, we suggest taking the phone to a Nokia Care Point for an evaluation and repair: Nokia Support. Please note that the repair process may delete your personal data, so it is best to create a backup file: Back up my stuff. 

  • Lumia 620 : Stuttering/Crackling Speaker :(

    Bought Lumia 620 about 2 weeks ago.But using it now.After a few audio n video playbacks, the speaker started to stutter/crackle. It is so much irritating and after buying Lumia 620 with so much excitement, i am now too much disappointed with this problem.What should i do now?Should i contact Nokia Care?Would i get the handset exchanged with a new one?

    Take the device to a nokia care point where they can examine the phone,also just to note the source of video may also be a cause for distortion or the format they are in.

  • Mp3 Volume issue Nokia Lumia 620

    Hi, 
    I was hoping someone could help me with this one please.
    When Listening to audio on the nokia Lumia 620 via the built in radio the audio is nice and loud and I can listen to it at volume 10 through the ear phones.
    However I have transfered some mp3's to the phone via the windows phone app, from Itunes and the audio volume is terrible, even at full volume I can just about hear the music. I have tested that it is not an issue with the mp3s by copying them to a HTC windows 8 phone and can listen to them perfectly.
    As far as I can tell the apps are all up to date.
    Does anyone have any ideas please?.

    Hi Csbarry
    Pressing the volume down and power buttons together will not delete any data on your phone, it's more of refreshing the OS of your Nokia Lumia 620.

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello, Vaibhav_16390. Have you already tried the suggestion given by eshiejamz? BTW, are you also using a Lumia 620? You may also try deleting the browser's history. Go to Settings > applications tab > Internet Explorer > delete history. Once done, press and hold both the volume down and the power keys for 10-15 seconds. 
    Let us know the outcome. 

  • Lumia 620 screen freezing problem

    i have a lumia 620 and i update it through the phone settings OTA, after restart the screen remains freeze at the start lockscreen nothing works exept side buttons.. and thats not all before 620 i had a 520 wich is a **bleep** piece, same problems with screen
    A honest question to nokia : Guys what sort of "error" is that ? What's wrong with you guys ? I switched from iphone 4 wich worked perfectly fine in 3 years after tons of updates..to this lumia 620, I NEVER EVER GONNA BUY ANOTHER NOKIA PRODUCT

    We understand your sentiments, xtrad3. Let us further isolate the issue.
    When you say 'software update', are you referring to Lumia Black? What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far? Have you tried to reboot the Lumia 620 by pressing and holding the volume down and power keys until it vibrates and restarts?
    If the screen works after rebooting, try to verify if the software is fully updated. If it's the Lumia Black software that you just downloaded, check if it shows up under Settings > Extras + Info. Try also to check if all system apps are updated. You can scan the app codes shown at this link: Nokia Windows Phone 8 App Updates.
    By the way, if you still have your Lumia 520 and had the issue with it after a software update as well, you may try the same troubleshooting steps given above. We'd appreciate it if you'll update us with the outcome. 

  • Lumia 620 Rebooting and Freezing

    My family have 4 Lumia 620's between us and all of them have been having problems with random reboots and screen freezes since the Lumia Black update.  I have tried resetting them and have verified that all the apps were updated (In all 4 cases "access point" required updating as it never automatically showed an update was needed) but this has not resolved the problem.  
    The reboots sometimes happen when using the phone, for example in IE, and sometimes just when the phone is sitting, not being used. Freezes usually happen on the lock screen, requiring the phone to be rebooted by holding down volume and power.
    On a few occassions, the phones have reset their date and time after a reboot and eventually correct it automatically.
    On a couple of occassions, a reboot sometime during the night has reset the alarms causing them to be missed.
    It seems to only be the Lumiz 620's that have this problem as I have a Lumia 820 and 520 which are not showing the same problem in-spite of being upgraded to Lumia Black.  
    My family are very frustrated with these reboots and freezes and are now considering moving to another platform.  Please help as I would like them all to stick with Windows Phone for when 8.1 is released.

    hi mate, sorry to hear of the problems you have been experiencing. in this case, the only option you have left is to perform a hard reset, and failing that, a visit to your nearest Nokia Care location for inspection of your handsets is mandated.

  • Lumia 620 urgent help

    Not sure if some particular application is causing it .. Is it happening only when you use a certain ?
