hello everyone. i am on my 3rd nexus 6 all had the same issue and i'm wondering if anyone else has come across this or am i just having bad luck. on all the nexus 6's i've had i've had this random buzzing sound pop up when using the headphone jack. it doesnt do it at all on bluetooth. it seems to do it more when the cord plugged into the headphone jack moves. the buzzing is temporary like 1sec in length but it can do it multiple times in a 10sec span. at first i thought maybe it was the headphone 3.5mm plug in that was messed up but it's doing it with other headphones i have also. it also does it with the auxiliary cable i use for my cars stereo. has anyone else had this issue with their nexus 6? i am wondering if this is a manufacturing defect since this is my 3rd nexus 6 that has been doing it. i have an at&t nexus 6. i remember my samsung galaxy s2 having this same issue years back and it turned out to be a hardware defect.
i listen to music with my headphones plugged in, no issues here. anyways, this goes into the q&a/help section, not into general. ill ask a mod to move it there.

Hey,
I'm having the same problem as a lot of the people in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-625731.html
..where any movement of the plug (headphones, 3.5 jack to jack cable in the car, pc speakers - but not the stock 'phones) causes random skipping of any music that I'm playing. I literally can't use the headphone socket unless I use the the in-ears that came with the phone.
Did this ever get resolved? Anyone still having the same issue?
It's bugging me that I can't listen to the music on my phone in the car...

Wow, I thought I was the only one! It used to happen to me all the time on CM 5.0.8, and CM 6 RC1...It's a wierd bug, as I didn't even know what was causing it at first, then once I found the issue, I couldn't replicate it.
I haven't had this issue in a while, however...Try out one of the CyanogenMod nightlies or RC3, see if that solves your problem.
Try 'Headset Blocker' by Roadkill in the market. It intercepts the headphone control signals.
@wdfowty: I'm using CM 6RC3. Its done it on every rom I've used.
@-dlee: I'll try it, thanks.
Lame, sorry to hear that. I hope that app works for you, post back if it does!
Second the reply to Headset Blocker. Drove me nuts until I installed that.

Most probably it's your headset connector having bad contacts, resulting in it being sensitive and reacting to very small plug movements with connect/disconnect of the "control" connector (which is shorted to ground when you plug a regular headphone jack).
Yep, Headset Blocker worked perfectly.
Thanks -dlee..
My Streak7 has sprung up a little problem where the audio cuts off when the headphone plug is wiggled slightly. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, did you get it replaced? And if so, did your replacement have the same problem?
I am trying to figure out if this is common or not, as I have two weeks left before I have to keep this thing, if this is a common issue - I will have to get a refund as the main use for this is listening to music at work. So, even if you have not had this issue, please post telling me so. For mine, when the cable is pressed towards the front of the device it cuts off, when it is pressed towards the back it does not. Obviously it is a short with the pin, perhaps it is just bent...
Thanks..

It did not happen in my case.
It should be a audio jack problem. or the headset.

Gotta be the jack, I tried three different cables same thing, it looks like one of the metal pins (looking into the jack it is the one on the screen side) is pushed in when it should be protruding slightly. I am going to get a replacement (thank goodness for root & Nandroid!) and hope it doesn't develop this problem... I really like my Streak.
Just a quick update, T-Mobile confirms that this is not a known common issue for the device, so that makes me feel better. I will swap it out on Saturday (work schedule doesn't allow me to get to a store before then) and pray the new one doesn't ever have this issue. If anyone else feels like chiming in on the subject, please do - the more responses the better..
I had a similar problem with one set of headphones. I think it might be related to the length of the pin. I tried using standard ipod headphones and worked fine (short pin). The first set I used that did not work had a microphone attached to them. I have not tried with any other since (longer pin).

Unfortunately for me, this is with numerous headphones and cables all with different styled plugs. Some with the longer plug (meant for i-whatevers), some with standard shorter plugs, and some in-between. The stock headphones, the stock headphones from my Nexus One, the stock headphones from my wife's MT3GS, the stock cable from my AKG headphones and all of the custom cables I have for my headphones... I am getting it replaced tomorrow. Thanks for sharing your experience though.
No problems using samsung vibrant headphones on my streak. Haven't tried any others yet. Think you just got a bum device.

Yeah, looking into the new device's jack you can definitely see where the old one was broken. The connector was almost shoved into the device, whereas it should protrude slightly.
Restoring my internal storage, then I will restore my Nandroid backup and hopefully be up and running like this never happened. Never tried restoring a Nandroid onto a replacement device before, hope it works out!
Restoring my Nandroid now! Can't wait to boot it up!
Booting!!! Oh my, the anxiety.
Hot ****in' damn! it worked 100%!
No this issue with my streak 7 + SHURE earphone
Hi Guys
I have my Notes dock connected to a pair of active studio monitor speakers (Cakewalk). When the 3.5mm audio jack is connected to the Notes 3.5mm out on the top of the phone all is well.
When I connect via the docks 3.5mm out (and set the Notes audio to dock out) I get an audible 'pop' from the speakers when the screen is touched - seems like a surge of power from the sound card audilbe from the USB but not from the phones own 3.5mm out.
When the phone is awake using fairly regular touches there are no pops, only when it is dormant for a few seconds does it make you jump out of your skin
I have had the same set up running perfectly using an HTC HD2 and Kidiggi docking cradle.
I don't know if it is the Dock or my Galaxy Note at fault
Any help is appreciated

I'm experiencing the same issue.
Audio ouput through the Note's own 3.5mm jack is popping as well. Doesn't matter whether I'm using passive headphones or an active speaker.
The Note I had before I got a replacement had this too, so it seems to be a general problem :/
Edit:
Forgot to say that it seems that the speaker output gets disabled when there is no sound for about 2 seconds. As soon as something makes a sound the speaker gets enabled again and produces the popping sound.
So while listening to some music or watching videos there is no popping at all. Only when the playback starts.

No, unfortunately not... :/
I just want to ask really quick if you guys have the same problems. Every time I plug in my headphones into the jack, they don't pick up sound and it says they aren't in. Also the screen flickers alot now. Remember I have a Nexus 7. Does any of this happen to you too? How can I fix it?
I'm having a problem where I can't seem to put my finger on it. I have 2 week old Nexus 6 and part of the reason why I bought the phone was to stream music in my car. However, every time i try, I get this horrible static coming from the phone. So naturally I thought, well it must be the cable that i'm using to hook up my phone to the aux port of my car . So i bought a shelled Aux cable and the hiss is still there. So i tried my wife's Samsung Note 4 and the cable is fine and the sound is beautiful from her phone. So next logical thing is, this phone is busted. So I put some apple head phones on the phone, the hiss is gone! I can't hear it, it works beautifully. My next thought is, the head phones are just not quality enough to pick up the hiss. So I have some mid-range Sure head phones that are pretty badass. I put those in and i STILL don't hear the hiss. Now i'm clueless as to what it might be. The phone makes the hiss in the car's aux port while on the charger, while off the charger, All audio programs I through at it.
I was wondering if anyone is having the same issue or had any luck solving it.
Nexus 6 aux issue
I am having the exact same issue.
Are you plugging it into power? You may need a ground loop isolater.
i have that exact same issue.. when ever i connect charger to phone...
forgot to say this is on a GS4.. my N6 will arrive tomorrow or friday..
if its a ground issue.. i should just add a ground to the cars wire harness.. that should take care of the issue right??
i will add the ground wire to the plug for the power outlet.
EDIT: i get my nexus 6 today.. i will try it out. if i still get the noise.. i will add the ground wire.
Aux sounds issues with nexus 6
This is my problem: with my old note 2, also a lgg2, I listen music in the car with a aux male to male connector, at the same time I also received calls and I could talk through the phone and listen through the car speakers. Now I can listen music with the nexus 6 but at soon as I receive a call stop sending the sound to the car and reroute the sound to the earpiece on the phone.
