I found a thread that said to flick a clean, dry toothbrush over the ear volume speaker a few times to clear buildup. Worked like a charm!!!

Had the same problem...the solution was quite simple for me (ymmv). Gently clean each speaker with dry paper towel repeatedly, then reset phone. Volume is acceptably loud. Why they don't have an adjustment for really loud escapes me.

It works now!

Took to a repair shop that Samsung recommended. They took out a toothbrush and put some alcohol on it and cleaned the area over speaker. Now it works.

 

I tried clearing the data cache, using the sticky goop over the speaker, blowing compressed air on it, vaccuming it, ..... nothing worked. Glad the toothbrush and alcohol worked!!!

Thanks sharing the solution. I was facing the same issue, I just took a toothbrush as you mentioned and rubbed it with some spirit on it. Its louder than beforeRobot Happy

Didn't work for me. Can barely hear anything when calling with my galaxynote 8, have to use loudspeaker. It's a shame for such an expensive phone, just 3 years old !!!

we have two note 8 in our home and the wife's phone was really low volume...after cleaning out the protective screens it helped but what really made the fix was utilizing a sonic toothbrush to help loosen up the buildup of wax..makeup and etc...it worked and my wife is happy...RT
