It depends what kind of noise you have.
If it's a constant buzzing you might consider having a look at the hardware
buzzfix just like rakshat mentioned.
If you experience a rustling noise, check your gsmhandset.state file ( in
/usr/share/shr/scenarii/ ). The "Mono playback volume" may be overdriven a
little bit. The easiest way to adjust it is to log in into the phone using
ssh, open alsamixer, start a call and find out the best values. After that,
make them persistent in the gsmhandset.state file. Be aware that the ranges
might differ in alsamixer (0 - 100) and the file (0 - 127). You will have to
adjust them properly.
Hope this helps.
