If anyone were interested in the new LG HBS-700 Bluetooth stereo headset, go get it! I got it for Christmas and I love it. It is the most comfortable, longest lasting stereo Bluetooth out there. I have had the Motorola S-9, Jabra BT-3030, among others, so I'm no stranger to the Bluetooth stereo headsets. I suggest this LG big time.

Have you noticed that the volume controls don't work when playing audio? I've only gotten the volume control to work on my Droid 2 when making a call, not playing audio. Disconnecting from my Droid 2 and connecting to my iPod Touch, I've had the same problem. I love these headphones, but not being able to control the audio is a bit of a bummer; not a deal killer, but a bummer.

I haven't experienced that at all. In fact I'm listening to them right now and work perfectly.

When using my Shure SRH440 headphones I can hear some kind of sound transfer when the back of the phone is rubbed. It gets worse when the phone is placed in my pocket where it rubs against the inside of my pocket. It seems like the headphone jack isn't properly isolated from the back or frame of the phone. Is this a defect in my phone or something that affects all Moto X phones. I have a Galaxy Note 2 and an iPhone 5 neither have this problem.

Just tried to duplicate your issue with 3 pairs of high end headphones and couldn't. It might be a defect with your phone.

No static with the following :
Hippo VB IEM
Atrio MG7 item
DT770 pro 80 ohm headphones
Custom one pro headphones
To my understanding, Shure IEM pick up noise very easily. They tend to be sensitive to the source used. Try another iem just to test.

I tested with both my Shure SE530 and E5C and had zero issue, both IEMs.
Tried to replicate with iPod ear buds, klipsch IEM's and another pair if Shure lower end headphones. All were fine must be my Shure SRH440's.

I spoke to soon. Looks like the static only becomes apparent after the screen on the phone comes on. I plugged my Shure SRH440's this morning and didn't have any static sound until I turned on the screen. I just tried my other headphones/ear buds and now the sound is apparent in all of them. The sound I hear isn't really static its more of a friction sound. I only hear it when rubbing the back of the phone. It sounds like someone walking wearing sweat pants. I can even hear it coming through my Beats Pill when I connect to it with a cable (not Bluetooth).

Odd. I only hear static for 3 sec when I plug in the headphones then it goes away

Glad you got it resolved! How do you like the SQ of the Moto X? I found it better then most Android phones, but slightly below iphone 5 in volume and bass quantity
I have no complaints. I have an iPhone 5 and traded in my Note 2 for this Moto X. The Moto X seems pretty good once you flatten out the EQ.

this is the hong kong and taiwanese flagship we will get it
Definitely Taiwan will get it first! Look at One X+, Taiwanese version got 4.2 before all the others.
I really hope they fix the audio crackling at high volumes, perhaps my unit has a defective headphone amplifier, but another user, tsokh, also noticed the same thing =/ Galaxy S4 with Snapdragon 600 had a similar problem, but I contacted HTC the rep told me that nobody else has complained to them about this issue (but then again I contacted HTC North America not Taiwan, a bit of a language barrier and they give you similar replies everytime there).
Also Beats Audio is kinda buggy if you listen to speakers with Beats on, and plug in your headphones the volume increasing effect of Beats is actually reversed and it actually decreases your volume, then turning Beats off actually increases the volume (leading to the audio crackling too). Even worse, after I do this, I start getting an occasional audio ZAP like not crackling but a loud squeak at the same location of a song.

It's noticeable only on some type of music and only with high level of volume - you can't hear anything with moderate volume level.
Beats bug with increasing/decreasing volume is true :fingers-crossed:

It's only occurs with songs that have a slow deep bass, example would be the slow part of Touch by Daft Punk, some R. Kelly songs. With most songs audio quality is great but I notice a little bit of high-pitched EMI on the left channel at the beginning of each track.
The audio crackling is very apparent with in-ear headphones and earbuds, if you have the volume above 11/15. I find 12/15 to be the ideal listening volume so I do notice it a little bit, but using PowerAMP it SOMETIMES doesn't happen. (but with PowerAMP I get occasional audio popping as opposed to the crackling distortion)
With higher impedance on-ear headphones you only get it at the maximum volume setting (Beats off).
The HTC rep advised me to have it checked with RMA (I might just go to a service center in Taiwan to ask about it the next time I go, it takes about 2 weeks for a factory repair though)
Does anybody use Bluetooth for listening to music? If it doesn't happen on Bluetooth it might be the headphone amplifier.

It's not only the butterfly S that is affected by the crackling sound on high volumes. I can confirm that it's also happening in One S and X..

are you getting the same problem? I thought it made sense because the Butterfly s uses the same chipset as the i9505 GS4 which also had its own share of audio problems. It might only affect a few units as daorderdillon says he doesn't have the same problem with the song in question. It may also be that only 901e are affected as he has 901s.
Strangely I never got this problem on my One X+ but I did get constant skipping which bothered me but mostly only happens if the screen is on and I'm doing something with the phone. Original HOX had a bad DAC and a lot of users disliked the audio quality (never tried myself), HOX+ much cleaner but kinda lacking in bass and treble.
The new update does seem to make the touch screen more responsive. I was having problems with the shift key and the back button, also playing Lep's World 2 where the jump button didn't always respond (perhaps it's because they updated it recently). Finally, there used to be a continuous hiss in the background even after you stop music playback. With IEMs the hiss is still quite noticeable at the beginning and end of songs (including a high-pitched EMI on my left speaker), but it stops soon after you pause the music.

sorry haven't rooted (yet anyways), still a noob here =/... Due to that headphone issue which I think may be due to the amp I don't want to risk my warranty yet, I'll be going back to Taiwan in a few months and maybe get a repair...

There isn't much difference actually the camera seems the same. Keyboard and buttons seem to be more responsive as I had some problems before under the screen protector.
Also, charging animation means your screen will always be on, I only realized this yesterday and I really hate it - what if your screen burns in? (good thing it's not AMOLED, but still there might be some retention as I get that on my iPad 2) Right now the only solution is to charge under standby mode.

No crackling here with my studio quality sennheisers. Using Liquid rom with kernel tweaks for increased mic and headset gains as well. I've tried fiddling with the volume (up down up down up down) while having it maxed out and it sounds perfectly clear. Have also tried skipping forward in the song/skipping songs with volume maxed and couldn't replicate whatever issues you're having...don't know if that's good news or bad to you but there it is^^
I've heard distortion (using my M8) in songs that have been mastered really loud. I don't hear it on my MacBook pro as much. I wonder if the m8 gain structure could be setup better for clearer audience.
One album that I notice it a lot on is Beck's new album, mainly songs in the middle or the record. Ripped mp3 via iTunes at 256

M8 crackling solution
So I rooted my M8 to the GPE and the crackling is gone. Also, now my M8 works 100% better. There are so many things that function and look so much better. Basically I am replying to rant about how awful companies and carriers make android function when they modify the OS. Google may get paid by allowing hardware and carriers to modify their OS, but they are going to lose customers in the end due to this terrible customer experience. Customers who don't buy a nexus or google play edition or can't root their device are out of luck and get an inferior device with a poor usability.
I'm having a problem getting true stereo using my Aux output to my CD player. One of the channels is either very muted, or its playing mono through both speakers, I can't tell, but it's not right. Bluetooth plays fine. I've had this problem before with my Rezound, but when I rebooted it the problem would go away, I've rebooted my X with no such luck. Anyone else have this problem or know how to correct it? Thanks.

Sounds like it could be a bad connection to the cable. Have your tried a different cable our tried cleaning out the jacks on either end?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
I found the problem, turns out my right speaker was blown. The reason the Bluetooth seemed to work was because the Bluetooth device I use is a cheap Chinese model, and the channels are wired backwards, so the guitar parts I thought weren't playing would play through the left speaker. Murphys law I guess. Thanks for the help though.
