Hello people. I have my phone over 7 months now and today I put it near my ear and notice a sound like a buzzzz. The strange thing is that the screen was off. it buzz like 10 seconds and than nothing. when I turn the screen on the buzz was still there. I notice that the sound is on when I`m browsing or using xda forum or market, anyway when the phone is in 3g mode. If I turn off 3g I don`t hear the buzz.
Do you notice this? Is there anyone with this problem? Is there a way to solve this?
Thanks
Never heard about this before.
Personally my phone makes absolutely no noise.
Does it also make the sound if you're in WiFi-mode rather than 3G?
Does the phone also vibrate while making the buzzing sound or only buzzes?
I don't know about wifi. It's like I can hear the traffic
The phone doesn't vibrate when i hear the buzz. It' s not like an error. The buzz is so slow that you can hear only when the phone is close to the ear like you are talking on it

never heard a noise from my phone.... i think you should go get it checked...
did you try to take the battery out and back in?
Doubt the buzzing is linked to anything software related.
If it's a problem it's definitely hardware related.
I would also get it checked out.
The buzz is not all the time. It's random.

if its random... than i think its has to be checked.
I tested more and I notice the buzz only when I`m browsing xda, market, net. I turn 3g on but the buzz don`t start until i`m browsing. If I terminate the programs with taskmanager the buzz disapear. On wifi I have no buzz. Could be this because of the network?
I had something like this in my old phone, nokia n95
All the time I was hearing buzzz from the spiker
It dosen't metter, the phone works great

Does anyone know how to disable the "Call Status Tone" on the N1? Every time I make a phone call or answer a call, I have to wait to hear the beep before I can talk. It has driven me crazy since I got this phone. I was playing with my wife's Vibrant and came across the option to turn it call tone on or off in her Call Settings, but there is nothing of the sort on the N1.
Does anyone have any idea how to do it? I would be eternally grateful!
Thanks in advance!!!
Anyone?

Are you sure it's the phone, and not a third party app or something (like Google Voice)?

I am pretty sure it has been making the beep since I got the phone and it has happened with every ROM I have installed on the phone.
When a phone call connects, there is a 1 second pause then a beep, then I can start talking.
Am I the only one who has this happening?

Doesn't happen to me.
ive never run into this either, and ive had both tmo and att n1
ive got the vibrate after call answers thing turned on in cyanogen but no beep...
i you google voice and sometimes just call with my cell number too and no beep
when you say you get this across different roms, do you do a full wipe between roms?
if so i'd imagine its hardware
I finally figured it out today, it only happens when I am on my Jabra headset. It is fraking aggravating!!!
Does anyone know how to turn it off?
I'm pretty sure that's the headset doing it, not the phone.

Off to the Jabra forums you go.
Mines makes the same annoying sound overtime you make a call a tone plays in the speaker when it connects any ideas on how to turn this off? I just use the phone no headset etc
Either it's something your carrier does, or you've installed something that's causing it. It's not the phone.
thanks for the info

I haven't used my speakers in about a week so I decided to try them today. I got a weird popping sound as soon as I opened up YouTube. Once I started playing a video, a steady pop persisted even though the audio was coming out. I tried playing through multiple music apps, turning beats audio off, and restarted the phone with no luck. This is only happening for my top speaker only when I enter an app that plays sound. The sound also persists for a few seconds after I stop sound. Anyone else have this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks.

In the main thread about such noises somebody has fixed this persistent popping through repair of HTC. It's hardware.
The popping sound (one single pop) a few seconds after a sound is played seems to affect a lot of people! Don't know if that's hard- or software. My device got that, too.

I've seen threads on that but it doesn't seem to be my issue. The sound doesn't just occur when I stop a sound, it occurs as soon as I start playing sound. Its constantly there. If I open up a song, it will continue to pop through the duration of the song until I stop the song completely. This makes it hard to make phone calls too. Headphones work fine though so its definitely related to the speaker. I haven't read about this specific issue on xda before so I decided to post it.

Yes. Your problem is a hardware defect (a user wrote about that), my phone doesn't have this problem. The seconds one (the single pop) often occurs.

.Hello everyone,
I had this problem with my Xperia T for a long time. I searched the forums for something like this but didnt seem to find anything similar to this.
So to cut to the chase the problem is that there is no sound from internal speaker no matter which source it is from: walkman, sms sound, call ringtone, youtube, etc. So there is no sound at all from internal speaker, but is I connect my earphones I can hear everything. The only thing that fix this is restarting phone. Now there are two things that triggers this phenomenon. First one is when I am switching between silent, vibrate, airplane and normal modes. Another one is when I listen to music with earphones plugged and I plug earphones out without turning music off. I did factory reset, but it didnt do anything. I am on latest build (9.1.A.1.141). So yeah thats pretty much everything.
If you need any more info please ask and ill try to provide it. Thanks in advance.

The thing with the earphone plug out is a known bug as far as I know. But I remember having read something about a fix in the T General Section.. Just have a look, you might be lucky..
I think the thread is called "Walkman bug solved" or something similar ^^

Nope, it makes this noise constantly.
Since it has no speaker (correct me if I'm wrong) the only noise could come from your charger.
First, let others test if they hear the strange sound, too, maybe you heard it once and made it up then (no offense )
Do a factory reset (I don't think I changes something, but to be sure)
If it keeps happening, consider returning it for warranty.

Returning it to warranty is not possible. Right now I'm able to hear that sound(it comes from the bottom-right side of the watch). And factory reset didn't help.
Update: Looks like sound comes only when watch is "sleeping"
The only moving part is the vibration motor, something must be wrong / damaged if it's going off for no reason.

If I put the back of mine up to my ear, I can hear a faint high pitched electrical whine. I too only hear it when watch goes to ambient mode.
Some part of the power system (the watch needs to convert voltage from the battery to several different levels for the electronics & display) oscillates at frequency that is inside of the frequency range humans can hear. I don't know very much about electronics (as you can clearly tell by my explanation), but I'm pretty sure it is "expected" - that's just how it works. Many electronic devices that need to convert voltage levels do the same thing - try to put your ear close to your phone charger, for example.
Sizzling sound when awake
Hi, I have a GWR that recently came back from the LG service center because of display problems: image would continually move and sometimes
had white noise. They changed the motherboard (proven by the new Serial Number ) and it seems like working fine.
But when I put it close to my ear I started hearing a faint sizzling/buzzing sound inside it.
After playing around a little I discovered that I can only hear it when the screen in on (but not when booting up), and only when I use a watch face which displays some data not just the time. Sometimes it seems to be louder when it's connecting to the phone after it's been disconnected.
I think the sound is heard only when the watch is actively using the bluetooth connection, it's the only case that fits.
What should I do, the watch works fine, but what can this sound be ? Could it be dangerous, maybe battery related, can it explode ?
Thanks for any suggestions.
What's the serial number of your watch (you can see ti in Settings -> About)? Maybe it's related.
Mine is 502KP...
sometimes electronic devices with no moving parts generate hisses. (something like sound effect used in movies for showing electric current). i guess it's not important. you can definitely hear it on your charger too.
After a certain amount of time, or opening a certain app, the phone will develop this annoying speaker pop on some screen clicks. I haven't figured out what causes it yet but it happens even when the phone is set to "total silence". A reboot always fixes it. I had my screen clicks enabled but have turned them off and rebooted and everything is fine now. If I figure out which app or circumstances cause it, I will post the fix.
I'm having the same issue. Happens during app launch for pretty much all my apps.

Reboot fixes it temporarily. If you notice it happens after the speaker goes dormant. If the speaker is making continual sound it won't do it. Once to goes to make its first sound after sitting, it pops. Even does it on silent. Don't know what is triggering it yet.
Supposedly someone has done a FDR and no longer has the issue.

I will let others try that first because it takes a couple hours to get everything back to the way I like it without root.

The pop has not returned today and the only thing I did different is not hook up the mod. It may be that.

Well that really wouldn't say much because a reboot fixes it every time by itself. Where is the audio effects setting?
I started noticing this in the Twitter app.

I've noticed this as well. When scrolling through my FB or IG feed, any time a video starts playing (even with the sound defaulted to off), I hear a tiny lil speaker pop. It doesn't particularly bother me all that much, but I definitely noticed it.
I was thinking about it the other day and noticed it sounds a bit like a static pop. Kinda like when you plug a guitar into an amp when it's on. Might be some sort of initiation for the speaker. As long as it doesn't affect anything else or causes damage, I'm not too bothered by it. Especially hearing that it's as widespread it is.
hey guys ive figured out what is causing it but the solution might be some sort of software patch.
its the act of connecting to a BT device and then streaming audio like XM/Google music ect. once you disconnect the pop/snap sound appears on all things that activate the speaker. the twitter pull down is the best thing to test this with but it happens on all sounds from the first time you play a song/video to changing a ring tone ect.
here is a video of the sound. ive tried it on both my cars BT, a bose standalone BT speaker, and even and old FM transmitter and all the BT devices cause the pop once they are disconnected.
the reason why its happening is a little over my head but I was thinking something with DRM possibly?
another thing i discovered is it does not happen on the non Force regular Moto Z. I tested the exact same scenarios on it and it does no speaker pop
I was going to return my phone for another but this thread and a few others makes me think its a full on bug with the Force not a bad phone out of the box
ive tried a simple network reset clearing BT but that didnt work. before I try any luck with a factory reset or is it a waste of time?

I have confirmed today that it definitely is not "mod" related. I haven't had my JBL hooked up in 48 hours and there has been no pop. I drove to work today listening to music through my truck speakers using bluetooth. Pop is back. @MCN1SMO was right, it is bluetooth related. The only way out is to reboot. LAME.
Just my two cents on the topic, I am not having this issue, however, I do use bluetooth daily, my phone has been on continuously for almost two weeks now. I work outside so use the JBL speaker and have my phone in my shirt pocket listening to music while working. I keep it at about 80% volume for battery life. I am averaging about 6 hours of listening a day.
Also I have my bluetooth connected to the work truck (Ford Sync) to and from work which includes a 4 hour commute home on Fridays and back on Sunday nights to the town I stay in during the week. I have yet to hear any kind of pop from either the JBL or device speakers.
Personally I keep bluetooth off when I am not connected to a device I am not sure if this has any effect or not but it could be worth testing if you are able to replicate the problem. I have been taking off the speaker when not using it as well, but have left it on a few days.
I do also remember reading about an issue with Pandora and bluetooth. I am not sure if Pandora is what you are using or not, if it is try something else and see if the problem persists. I stopped using Pandora a few years back when I was a mechanic and had a bluetooth adapter for a code scanner for cars. If I opened Pandora I would have to reset before the adapter would operate normally.
