Im not sure whats going on. But i have noticed it since the day I got this phone.
Pandora seems to be playing in "Live" mode. With the sound not as rich and clear as it would be from a cd. It sounds hollow i guess is the word for it.
I tried playing some MP3's and the effect is still there but not as bad.
I tried to use Equilizer but even with that i cant get it to sound the way it should.
Anyone have any idea on what it could be or experiencing the same issue?
Currently I'm running Juggernaut Rom V3.69
Well i would upgrade ure rom to v1.7 then see if problem still exists

Recently while I listen to music with headphones I get this random extremely loud buzzing sound that scares the crap out of me when I'm listening to music quietly. I haven't really been able to find the exact cause but have noticed that it usually happens when my phone is pulling data such as when I open a website. Seems to happen on Wifi. I use 3 different headphones and it has happened on all of them. Had this happened to anyone else? I'm currently on gummy 0.9.0 with Franco's milestone 2.

had it on aokp and cm9 but only when streaming music/downloading music and surfing the web (all done over 4G[verizon]) I just figure the phone is freaking out trying to handle it all.

I was reading up and it might be due to dsp manager. Did you have dsp installed and active on those roms?

Happens on the first few tracks I attempt to stream (via subsonic) almost every time. I wonder if any android phone will ever catch up to the iphone in music/audio quality/playback.

My trusty Fascinate definitely surpasses the iPod/iPhone in all of that with voodoo sound as well as louder volume.
I notice Volune+ is really noisy when listening to music at low volumes. If I disable it, the noise is gone.

Galaxy S with Voodoo Sound did it
Have you tried enabling high performance audio with a custom kernel like glados/leankernel/franco? It really improved S/N ratio when listening to quiet music.
Give player pro with the dsp pack a shot, its all I run and my phone is my mp3player and I use it through my setup in my car...hard to beat..and I'm an audiophile so I'm crazy picky...you won't be disappointed

I actually disabled that because I thought it might be the issue but it still happened. I ended up disabling DSP manager and the audio often cuts out when I'm pulling data but doesn't make that loud ass noise.

Giving it a shot now. Sounds much better than Google music. Not sure if it will stop the music interruptions but I'll see.

Well everything so far has been a lie. Using player pro and that loud noise happened twice while I was downloading power amp from the play store. So it can't be DSP manager since I have it frozen with titanium.
Edit: I'm on wifi for the first time today so that could be another culprit. I listened to music for an hour straight earlier over 3G/4G and it hadn't happened at all.

Sorry man, I'm not sure, are your cables all good..any shorts or anything?

Bringing this back into the light as it is still an issue. I flashed BAMF earlier today after getting fed up with the Noise problem and found that it still exists. back on CM9 if I switch the number of background processes to one (under developer options) I was unable to recreate it. So it seems to be a memory issue. For those that haven't heard the problem, plug in some headphone or an AUX cable into your stereo start playing some music, open some apps, then go to the browser and surf. When a page is loading Scroll around really fast and zoom in and out a lot. Load pages back to back try a few different pages and its bound to happen. Try image heavy pages.
Hi, I've been following this thread and decided to add to the muddle.
I bought an inexpensive portable stereo dock for my Incredible 2, made by Auvio, and got a subscription to Slacker so I could stream music while I worked (I'm a massage therapist).
It uses a short coaxial cable terminated in a 2.5mm stereo plug to connect to my phone, and sounds pretty good for only having 1" diameter speakers. It worked well with my Incredible 2.
Two weeks later I find out Verizon is going to take away my "unlimited" data plan unless I upgrade to 4G, so I got my Galaxy Nexus.
Now when I try to use the GN with my dock, I keep hearing data noise in the speakers as the app grabs & buffers the music. This didn't happen with the Dinc2.
If I move the phone or touch the cable, it reduces, but doesn't eliminate the noise. It does not happen with headphones or the GN's speaker.
Does anyone think this could be related to the issues discussed here? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

This happens to me also when my phone is in heavy use or anything that makes the CPU run high.

old post quoting here
But this reminds me of the exact noises i hear when using ondemand governor with parameters tweaked , it caused the cpu to apparently change frequencies too many times in to short a time span....it was like a loud buzz/crazy reverb type sound.
Hasn't happened once when using interactive

I've had it with both interactive and conservative . I'm currently on the linaro aokp 38 build and I've not had it happen yet (flashed the linaro update today). Before I flashed the linaro update I was on normal aokp 38 and had the problem. A little more testing needs to be done but maybe the linaro tweeks are cause a little more stability in the memory .

Seems like the problem is that, while the music is playing "in any app" its not being givin "High Priority" over the apps in the background or foreground. For example, if you jump to the browser and load a page that requires a large amount of CPU usage, the will cause the CPU to make the music app audio lag which might be the loud screech noise as a result when the music app looses priority.
While music is playing it should have higher priority so the phone doesnt lag the audio if that makes sense.
Thats my guess on whats going on, because it only happens when my phone is multi tasking or taking on CPU load in another app.
Like I also said previously it has happen to me so far on CM9 nightly with that kernal that came with it, and also on blackice and the kernal that came with black ice. also had the problem with the Samurai kernal.
Hey guys, I'm running the Elitemod ICS rom on my Desire Z, and lately I've been having some really really strange issues with audio. Firstly, when I plug headphones in nothing happens, and when I adjust the volume the beep that plays goes through the speaker not the headphones, but music or videos go through the headphones, no headphones icon appears as I think it used to do. Just before I was adjusting the volume and testing out music and noticed it was extremely quiet, I was about to reinstall the louder volume mod from the dev section, but I noticed that the audio was playing through the earpiece not the back speaker..... After a restart everything is nice and loud and normal, should I be worried or was it just a glitch.
EDIT: When playing music with Apollo, it seems that audio is playing out of the earpiece as well as the back speaker. Is this normal?
No, this is not normal. Did you do a clean install of the rom? Did you try other ROM's?
Since the problem started happening no I haven't tried any other roms, in the past yes I've tried heaps of roms. I did do a completely fresh install of this rom a while ago but it just started happening out of seemingly nowhere

I can only guess that it's a hardeware error if it doesn't work correctly on other rom's as well. If other rom's with the same kernel and android version work, you can try to copy the drivers from that rom to your current rom.
I hope it's fixed by installing a totaly different rom, otherwise you'll have to sent this one in to get it fixed as well.
I have a rooted GNex running 4.2. (Toro)
All of a sudden my music, when played through a 3.5 mom jack, stutters and skips. This is for different sound devices, so it is not the headphones. At that time I was running peter Alfonso's bug less beast. After this started nothing me I wiped my phone and flash Jake's Jelly Belly 4.2 ROM in hopes it would fix the problem. It didn't. I tried a few other players, yielding the same results. I cleaned out the jack as well. I have no idea what this could be. The stuttering usually happens when the screen is on and I am running something else. My genes has never had this problem before.
THIS ONLY HAPPENS WITH MUSIC. nothing else.

I'm having the same issue here... google music, power amp or any other player...
When using streaming apps like tunein or deezer the problem doesn't occur
It happened to me with my old nexus s: It turned out to be kernel related, and a newer version fixed it. It clearly appeared in the logcat. It never happened to me with stock ROM.
Are you using a custom Rom?

This happened yesterday out of the blue and is really strange.
Here is the problem: the music player works fine on the external speaker but when I plug in headphones the quality goes to ****, the background music still plays but the vocals echo and become staticy. I tried multiple headphones and all had the same result, I tried restarting my phone and that didn't work either. I also tried to mess around with the equalizer but that didn't help.
I am on an El29 kernel with CM-10 10-20121108-Experimental-d710-beta2
Any idea on whats going on? any help will be much appreciated, thank you!
It could be the "experimental" in your rom.

Have you tried any of the new nightlies? Also have you tried DSP manager?
