Hey guys,
Wanted to know if anyone is having an issue with Gnex speaker.
When the speaker makes a sound, as in locks, key tap, volume up down sound, anything, it hisses for a couple of seconds then like cuts out with a CB like noise. Soooo annoying!!!
Cheers is advance. = )
Yes this is annoying. It happens to everyone with sounds enabled.

You just aren't noticing it. Play a sound with your head up to the speaker and when the sound stops, you will hear a VERY FAINT hiss and then pop.
It's been noted by many users on the google bugs forum. It's annoying.
I assumed it was just really bad recordings? I was going to pull and re-sample my ringtone and SMS tones to see if I could fix it, might not be worth the effort if it's the phone.
So its normal?? Really?
Geez, that's a bummer, pretty annoying and very, I dunno, cheap. = (
I was hoping it was just me. So it could indeed be fixed with software?
I thought it might of been the hardware. = / Good and bad news in a way. So there's nothing we can do atm is there?
Thanks guys.
I gave friend also who has a Gnex and his has no noise like this at all. It's sweet.
This is strange.

Was he using a custom rom?

No that's the confusing part. I have another thread asking about firmware updates aswell...not going to bring that into this but he's on 4.0.3....isn't the latest 4.0.2?
Anyway, so your thinking if you wanted to you could change roms and it would get rid of that noise?
ive noticed ive ran into this issue only when using volume+
Oh really?
Nah I have it just straight out of the box.
I just got a replacement Gnex and its still doing this f'king noise!!! Its so annoying!! What can I do??

Every model at best buy had this problem so we're not alone. There was a thread somewhere about manipulating the audio flinger. Mine is only noticeable in dead silence.

Yeah same. Its not that bad I spose but when I hear it I cringe a little. Haha.
So there is a way to fix it? I'd have to root wouldn't I....
What builds do you guys have?
Could you post? I'm doing a little brainstorming here and if its the build, I'm gonna change!! Haha.
Thanks I'm advance. = )
Do any of you actually realize that every speaker on the planet does this?
Apply power to speaker, it will hiss. Cut power from speaker, it will pop.
And seriously, why are any of you putting your ear up to the speaker port anyways? You do realize you must look like fools...
Hi folks tried searching for this But couldn't find anything.
Does anyone use sennheiser Ie8i on galaxy s3. Do all the controls work? Answering calls and volume etc?
Thanks for the help I'm planning to buy ie80s and use the ie8i cable to Use with the phone.

Hi,
I have ie8i from a long time, I mean I am using since I bought Galaxy S1 from Sprint.
Right now, with Galaxy S3, only the pause button works. You cannot increase or decrease the volume and also you cannot answer the calls.
I want to place a bounty so that some one can come up with an app or something to make them work perfectly.
Regards
Sai
Oh well quality pair of headphones not make or break for me.
The app sounds like a good idea can it be done?
Oh and does the Mic work ?
Thanks for the help!

Is there anyway to get louder bluetooth volume on a phone call and better quality.. I had the sammy victory 4g and volume was crazy loud and quality of sound was amazing for a cheap low end phone

havent really noticed any issues on my lg tones, jambox or my bt head unit....what are you connecting to?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I am using a blue parrot headset.
I'm using a Plantronics Voyager Legend and the volume does seem a little low even at maximum. It can be a bit staticy sometimes as well. Neither issue is so bad as to be annoying though. I had thought that the issue was with the Plantronics, but I suppose it's just as likely that the problem is with the Note. I haven't searched for a solution yet.

I have tried my headset with my wifes gs3 and my old phone photon and it is crazy louder with those phones, then I connect if back to my note2 and the voice prompt and commands are loud but when on a phone call isnt nearly as loud....

Silly question...but did you turn it up? I think there is a setting that adjusts in call volume to a lower level by default
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I've seen the same thing. Its a software thing because on Jellybomb 5.1 the volume us definitely louder but still not loud enough. My same BT headset was much louder on my Evo and is much louder on my WP7.

Ya I just wish I was smart enough to figure it out I have tried multiple Bluetooth headsets and all them get quiet when you start taking but use thm on other phones and are louder
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Any super smart developer that can figure this out there has to tweaks somewhere to increase the max volume
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I would Definitely say its a problem with the note. The volume is way low on a call. I use a Moto hx550 and my GS3 worked great with it.
I have been following this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1931970
and tried the tweaks by editing manually, but it didnt help bluetooth volume. So I'm either not tweking the right volume values or there will have to be another solution found. Its frustrating, but hopefully something will come out of one of these threads...
I have an issue with my Note 2 Bluetooth quality as well. Using Motorola Elite Silver. Seems to be perfectly fine with playing music and as soon as I initiate a call the quality degrades their voice breaks up as well as mine. Works fine with other devices, currently have tried on a couple different ones in the Sprint store I work at.
Has anyone found a solution to this issue?

What rom/kernel are you running? If its a tw rom with a compatible kernel you could try STweaks.
It has an option to increase standard volume limits.

Hmmm, its got to be rom related then. If your headset works fine on a different phone, then thats all thats left. There is one last option for you
I use a jawbone icon I got fron ebay.
What really made the difference for me...jabra ear gels. They look crazy! But they hold inside the ear without a hook. An it tunnels the sound dramatically. $6 for a full set left and right.
Honestly bud, this made night and day difference! Sadly their not available in any store anymore. But online everywhere!
If sound is this much an issue for you. I would say the $6 is worth a try.

There should really be a VLC-like setting on all ROMs that allows you to go above 100% on bluetooth volume if you choose to.
I got my galaxy note II today and im so happy! Way better then my galaxy s III.
okay I just have 1 little problem. Whenever I put my sound volume max like listening to a song on youtube or if im talking to someone on the phone using speakers. It sounds like its going to break. does anyone have that problem?
I do.. its especially bad when hooked up to my fm transmitter. Im sure its just software related though.

A speaker cracking is in no way software related. It is related to the horrible quality of the speaker.

I don't have that issue...I would take it back for an exchange. Sounds like a defective speaker.

Its the audio chip within the Note 2. ALL Note 2s do this so replacing it wont do much. Look it up for yourself. Its most noticeable at max volumes even with earphones in.
Mine is perfect idk what you guys are talking about ?!

Ditto
Mine sound fine to me over speaker or headphones.
Mine sounds so bad. I've never hear a speaker on a phone that sounds this bad but I traded my Nexus 4 for this Note 2 and the speaker isnt a "huge" deal to me. I wounder if i replace it how long it will last until it blows again... Anyone know if the speaker is under warranty?
Headphone's volume is just too low comparing to my iphone 4s, any suggestion to louder it out ??? Custom ROM or I need to buy extra DAC AMP for my phone ??? Please help

Turn it up a little at a time til you find the max with no distortion
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda premium
Try this:
Install equalizer app from market.
Open the app and raise all 5 bars to max.
Done.
For mp3: use pre amp feature of players like poweramp.
What quality is your music at? What kind of head phones are you using? I say this because my set up I have to turn down because it's too loud.

I use Poweramp + Audio Technica M60.
Try this (attachment)@PowerAMP equalizer.
Also check your audio file quality.
