800w speaker makes crackling sound

[TheSoulKeeper]

just wondering if your 800w speaker sounds clear or crackles? Mine makes this crackling sound especially with SprintTV...

Yes, the speaker sucks, I work for sprint and checked several different handsets to be sure, they all drop sound badly. Surprisingly it's still a loud speaker, but only if the sound being outputted is high in tone with little or no bass.

Oh and for those of you who were wondering, it is still better than the mogul's.

Do you have your WiFi turned on? My experience is that the speaker only crackles on the phone with WiFi turned on.

Nailed it inFused. My speaker was cracking as well. Stopped the minute I turned off wifi. That's an odd hardware bug. Thanks for the easy answer.

if im not mistaken the wifi button is located near louspeaker so maybe its an electrical charge issue.

the speaker is a joke! Seriously, u know that they tested this option...what did the QA team say... 'yeah...it sounds good???' What a joke of corporate america........

Mine crackles without wifi too. The speaker phone is unusable the way it is now. Luckily I rarely use it (I wont ever use it with this phone).
