1 year later and your video is still helping people. Thank you brother ❤

[@wendyriley2486]

I didn't fly or be in the cold, but I was having the crackling noise so I had my phone replaced under warranty 2 TIMES! Had the same problem with all 3 phones!! I just did what you said and IT FIXED IT... YOU ARE A GENIUS! THANK YOUUUUUU SO MUCH!

[@Spartan_432]

Did it permanently fix or did it do it again soon after?

[@Spartan_432]

I restart my phone and the crackling goes away then comes back after minutes

[@9787917929]

I also had the same problem.. But I simply removed my camera lens protector glass now it's all working fine.. Now I can go to hill station and keep my phone under air conditioning room speaker works properly and no more cracking.. Guys you try it.. It works...

[@emrehanklc8738]

I started having the same problem with my s22 this week. It happens when I am out at cold temperatures here in Canada and I have a camera lens protector as well. So, is that what's causing it? Should I remove it?

[@9787917929]

@@emrehanklc8738 yes remove it.. It works..

[@emrehanklc8738]

@Jamal Mohammed yeah I will give it a try. Thanks man, I was so annoyed with it, hope it works!

Thanks. Speaker went back to normal as soon as I removed the lens protector. Hopefully it stays that way lol

[@lovell74]

s23+ and it worked for my phone perfectly

[@The_Danders]

This actually worked for me!! Thanks for the tip. I am a mountain climber/climbing arborist and my phone had been on and off crackling for weeks. 1 minute later, fixed

[@WIHRC]

I'm really glad this worked out for you. Hoping this is something Samsung is aware of and will fix with the next series of devices.

[@wendyriley2486]

I can tell you that Verizon has no clue about this fix!

[@headrecdsm]

Figured I would need to replace the speaker. Came across this video while looking up how to do it. Just saved me time money and a headache. Thank you!

[@crxracer805]

S22+ here. Same issue and yes I believe you are definitely right about pressure. Noticed this whenever I drove a long distance.

[@meet1548]

Holy!!! My dude you're a life saver. I was panicking after the flight back home and my phone had little to no sound. Almost smashed it out of anger but lucky I decided to check out KZbin for help. Thank God for your video man. Much respect 🙏

[@WIHRC]

I'm glad that the video could help you out it was surprising for my wife and I the first time around, too.

[@justinray8107]

I can't hear what he is saying my speaker volume is on maximum but no sound. Funny thing is when I put my mouth at the speaker and I blow inwards as if I'm inhaling or sucking up dirt out of the speaker it sounds and as I remove my mouth it goes mute again. What's that about? There is no dirt in there

[@justinray8107]

What I mean is for example I put my mouth where the mesh is I inhale as if I'm smoking /inhaling a cigar and then sound come out only then. It use to work fine. Just randomly started to crackle/distort. Then eventually no sound is coming out now unless I inhale the speakers lol which is crazy of u think about it

[@WIHRC]

Not sure if you're talking about the video in general but if you are and can't hear the audio due to an issue with your speaker, the solution was to remove the SIM card tray for a few.

[@pierrecormier-ij7vg]

Checked almost 50 video concerning speaker crackling sound. Yours was the only one suggesting removing card and reinstalling it. I'm so glad, it worked perfectly and I didn't have to mess with software. Thank you so very much.

[@The_Polished_Edge]

You're a lifesaver. Came off a flight and had the same problem, and you resolved it immediately.

[@Oceanicology]

I purchased a S24 second hand and the speaker sounded like yours. Thank you so much for this!

[@jackiegantt6001]

Right on the money. So obvious after you explained it. You saved me a few dollars with this.

[@pt5139]

I dropped my phone in the bathtub and the crackling sound started. I thought maybe the salt and whatever was in the bathbombs corroded something. This totally fixed it. Thank you so much!!!!!!!

[@christianroessler4988]

3 weeks of trouble shooting fixed in15 minutes. Thanky you. Your treatment worked on Samsung 23 plus. You know how good it feels to have an anyoing problem, Your hands on works a treat. Also my muxzzled speakers issue was not due to elevation. I now belive it was a unseated sim card. As this is around the time of the beging of the problem. Still the pure fact you talked about the gasket I immediatley removed the sim and a low cool dryer blow. As I am writtting this the issue seems repaired.

[@MarkDavis-zn9ub]

This is unbelievable. My jaw literally dropped when I watched this video. I've been struggling with this speaker issue for a year, and it was solved in 10 seconds. I thought I was going to have to replace the speaker. Thank you!

[@megans8295]

I was about to take my phone in and grumbling that the warranty *just* expired (of course). I live (and have stayed) at sea level, so no idea what caused the crackling problem, but this was such a quick solution!! Thank you so much!

[@Ziggy__Z]

After 3 months of thinking I blew the speakers, it was this simple! THANK YOU!

[@gco2075]

S22 exactly the same problem, you solved it. You are a genius and deserve mln likes man. 👍 Thanks a lot.

[@wyattwilcox9890]

Just went sking and thought that my phone speakers were blown out. You are such a life saver man thank you!!!

[@Aidamari97]

Thank you so much for this video. I just came back to Arlington, Texas from Estes Park, Colorado. My phone speaker produced nothing but static noises. This video is an absolute lifesaver!

[@WIHRC]

No problem at all glad the video was helpful. Funny enough Estes Park is one of the locations that happened to my wife's phone also.

[@4shrieks]

Came to Dallas from Estes Park & RMNP today. Had the same issue for 2 days. Struggled with it for a while before stumbling on this video.😅

[@kimberleygodship2915]

Thanks for the help! I had a popping/crackle sound coming from the speaker of my S20 every time sound started playing or someone spoke on a call. I removed the case, cleaned my phone, opened the sim card slot, blew in all the holes and restarted and it stopped 😀

[@WIHRC]

Glad this solution worked out for you.

[@beikerdasilva]

Right on brother! No fluff, just knowledge.

[@Eve09091]

I traveled and i was really scared to find my phone speaker not working when we landed, this totally worked! Thank you

[@jakeb706]

Saved my phone with the Sim card trick. My top speaker was crackling after I (stupidly) dropped my phone in my oil pan during a change. Thought my speaker was done after getting saturated. Popped out the Sim card. Good as new!

[@62Sketch]

FANTASTIC! Fixed my A53. Went for a drive up in the mountains yesterday and speaker stopped working.

[@WIHRC]

Glad this helped you out.

[@jruby8402]

I came across your video as I was googling as to why my galaxy s22 plus had cracking when I was trying to make a call. I took the sim card out and left it out for 5 mins and I put it back in and it works perfect. Thank you again. 😊

[@wolfezz5741]

A33 here. Was surprised, but this fixed my crackling sound instantly. Tried hours of cleaning the speaker without success.

man thank you this worked with my s22 plus and I did it infront of my brother and basically taught him everything you said😂

Hello W.I.H, it is exactly what happen to my S22. After I came back from Denver to San Francisco. You are right on the money. Once I push out the SIM card, sound return. Thanks a million.

It actually worked! It also happened to me when we went on a high altitude place and when i got home, speaker suddenly sounds crackled

[@josephbaldorado6202]

Thank you brother, you're a life saver. I bought my s23 fe last September but suddenly now i encounter this issue, i tried to blower my speaker i thought there's a water stuck in my speaker but still occurring, i watch this and it really helps. Thank you!

it helped me figuring out that the cover was blocking the vent holes so when I just removed the cover the sound went back to normal S24 ultra thanks a lot

thanks so much sir, i thought i paid 1500+ dollars and damaged my phone in 3 days, was upset the whole day even rest my phone but didnt work, you are a life saver truly

[@myrek_]

My man THANK YOU, i still dont understand why the sim should create this kind of problem on the speaker, but you are smart af

[@WIHRC]

Glad this worked out for you. I believe it has to do with the water/dust resistance seal on the sim tray. Since it's designed to keep pressure in, it's most likely the cause.

[@duardaddington2759]

My S22+ showed, "3 apps shut down due to phone overheating". Speaker crackling ensued. I tried the sim card removal AND IT WORKS. GOD BLESS!

Glad this solution worked.

[@WIHRC]

Glad that this worked out for you. Still surprised it's happening to even the S23 series. By any chance did you have a camera lens protector?

[@travisdom9391]

@@WIHRC i dont have... what i am suspecting is i put a skin...on top of it is the plastic screen protector for the back... and the case, your option worked but then earlier i was at the beach again and it happened again, and i didnt have the sim ejector with me, i removed the case...it started to be normal again.... but when i cameback to the cottage i had to remove the sim tray again just to be sure.... so my plan is to leave the skin, remove the plastic, then probably change the case too...

[@WIHRC]

Ahh I see. I guess the problem stems from there being some kind of air gap on the back of the device or multiple air gaps around the device that are being covered but Samsung has not detailed in any documents. Funny enough I did see an article where they stated that certain accessories might degrade the performance of the device but back cover skins as well as camera lens protectors we're not amongst the kinds of accessories they mentioned.

[@natashawheatley7152]

​@WIH_R_C this only provides temporary relief, and this is on my s23 ultra. I've had it sent back multiple times, but they can't find anything wrong with the phone? What else can I do. Its been this way since I brought it 6 months ago or so x

Thank you so much. I had only recently bought this phone on eBay and had no guarantee, so was panicking. Your video did the trick for me. You are a genius.

[@KevinHozak]

Thanks for this! My wife's phone was making the crackling sounds and the only thing I thought it could be was dust or moisture. I tried all the sound videos for cleaning phone speakers. But then I found this and it worked! It must have been from being in the Yellowstone and Montana mountain area recently.

[@WIHRC]

Glad that this video was able to help you out. The same exact thing happened to my wife's phone which is the one in the video. We were driving near Breckenridge in Colorado and it happened twice so at least now you know this will work out for you when going into areas with a similar rise in pressure.

[@zibusisojele]

Thanks bro. my phone fell 2 days back and the speaker was sounding horrible. I'm glad this helped.

[@teneshazamor1680]

Thank you sooooooooooo much. I have the S22+ and I was having this issue, but I did this, and it fixed it instantly, definitely gained me as a subscriber. I appreciate you.

[@fb2565]

Easiest fix is to remove the camera lense protector. The hole for pressure equalization is in one of the lower lense. Try to suck the lower camera while playing music. It brakes the sound of the music.

[@DL13650]

This happens every time I fly and I never knew why, thank you!!!

Great video thank you. Just got home from 2 weeks in Colorado. My wife has the S , have the plus no problem

[@sscollectors5364]

Worked! Traveled to Dulce NM and was thinking I blew my speakers but this was great thank you

[@colbalt95]

I recieved a refurbished S22 Ultra after my last one screen cracked. Flew all around the world and never had any issues with any phone. Did some research and I'm one of the ones that had a camera lens protector on the back of my phone. I guess one of the camera lenses releases pressure because once I removed it, the sound restored. Alternatively you can open the sim card tray However the last one screen was cracked and I rarely travel the world w my daily driver.

Awesome, thanks this saved me so much time troubleshooting or dealing with warranty crap. Thanks a ton!

[@irfanahmad93]

some wrote long drives, some wrote getting in hot car from cold weather outside and going out to really cold weather again, i guess mine was that or that long drive or going to high altitude area, or maybe all three , who knows, samsung has to know this if its still happening in laterst s23 ultra and the 10 models before that
