Speakerphone Echo?

[scield]

During a few phone calls on speakphone I've found that there is an echo from whenever I talk on the phone. It's not during the whole call, maybe 1-2 minutes and the other party doesn't seem to hear it. Has anyone had this issue or anyone aware of it and can maybe advise what the issue may be? Thanks!

I have always had a bit of echo on any smartphone I have ever owned. Or any Phone I ever owned for that matter. I however haven't had more issues on my 920 than any other. Has the phone always done this?

It's not on every call so I can't say it's always done this and I don't use speakerphone that often for it to be an issue. It's probably 30% of the time when I'm on speakerphone I hear that.

This is from Verizon, but it would apply to any cell phone or carrier.

Why do I hear feedback or an echo while on a call?
If you're getting feedback (an echo or "squelch") whenever you talk on your phone, try turning down the volume. In some cases, your microphone can hear your earpiece (this is especially true for hands-free car kits). Adjusting your volume to a lower setting should help.

The same solution is given in this thread for the Nokia Lumia 900.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for the research!
