I've had this problem since day 1, does anyone else have this problem?:

The custom alarm and ringtones' bass sounds scratchy and distorted. I know this isn't just a problem with the hardware of the speakers because when I blast music out of the speakers (of the same song) from the media player or when selecting ringtones or alarm tone, it sounds normal. But when they play for the ringtone or alarm, the bass sounds scratchy and distorted.

How do I fix this?

I do experience the same problem, and I'm thinking that the alarm application maybe increases the dB to make sure the tone is loud enough, and therefore the scratchy sound.

It actually woke me up the second I heard it "WTF, something's wrong with the speakers, OH NO!"

OMG,


i just experienced the same now ..

How to solve this

I have the opposite problem...the ringtones are barely hearable....

This has been addressed in another thread ages ago.

Something to do with the conversion from stereo mp3 on the phone itself as you specify the mp3 to use as the ringtone.

Try searching for posts about the speakers being distorted.
