For a while now my right bud has been grainy (crackly), at first I thought it was just the transparency mode, but now it’s all sound coming from it. I’ve tried cleaning them, but maybe there is some wax dug in there? Maybe it’s not wax at all? Thanks for any help!
Hear me out, so most likely there is some stuff in your airpod that could be stuck in there but cant be removed with regular cleaning. So if you have some blue sticky tack (the stuff that schools uses back then) just force it into the airpod’s holes, then SLOWLY remove it from the hole. repeat it a few times and the noise issue should be fixed. It’s an old school method I did on some Pixel Buds and some first gen airpods
