S9 speaker crackling

[Aidan2]

Ok so I have the s9 plus and it has worked fine for months but now out of nowhere the bottom speaker is making this weird static crackling noise and it wont stop, I have put the device on do not disturb and reset it and it has not stopped even while it was restarting. I need help I hope that this wont affect the quality of my audio.

--ok I have unplugged it from its charger  and it stopped but now everytime its plugged in it does this.

Hi @Aidan2. Have you been using the original charger that came supplied with your phone? 

[Aidan2]

Yes I am.

[CarlH]

You mentioned you reset the phone, @Aidan2. Was this a Factory Reset? 

[Aidan2]

No I just restarted it.

If not lint or other debris is in the speaker then I'd suggest using a Samsung Experience Store or Samsung Service Centre so they can take a look. 

I assume it's never been dropped or has had the chance of water getting into it. 

Check the visible water indicators usually in the sim card slot. 

I wish you all the best with this situation.
