[Q] Sound Bug ? (Speaker/Headset) - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have noticed that sometimes when im listening music from speakers and during the play, plug my headphones in, i get a great loss in bass ?
could anyone confirm/look into this ? im pretty sure its "real".
its not like... that i would loose all the bass, but what used to be ear piercing is now just "boom boom"

There are many possible answer for that(i.e. Lousy headset or song quality)

Audio Disturbance, please help

Whenever I listen to music through wired headphones, there is always some sort of disturbance sound in the background while playing. I have tried multiple types of headphones, I have tried multiple types of adapters for 3.5mm headphones.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem while listening to music through a wired headset? The sound is subtle, but it drives me crazy!
I think that it is a problem with the driver- is there a different audio driver for the Rhodium?
I highly doubt that it is just me experiencing this because I have heard the same annoying sounds on my friend's computer speakers, and sometimes on my computer speakers too. (and yes, other people can hear the sounds too )
I really hope someone can help me out here, thanks
Are you using the HTC music player, Media Player, or a 3rd party app?
Is the sound present on various songs?
I haven't noticed any type of background noise on my Tilt2, and I listen to music on it quite a lot. But I don't have headphones right now to check (if its something I just haven't noticed before).
Can you describe the sounds more? High pitched or low? Constant tone, or comes and goes, or repeats?
I have a TMOUSA TP2. It is persistent in any audio that comes out via a wired headset. It doesn't matter which music player I use. I have tried Windows Media, Nitrogen, TF3D Music Tab, and CorePlayer.

High frequency sound from speaker?

has anybody else noticed the high frequency sound(very high pitch) coming from the speaker when playing music from the music app, going to test from youtube etc now?
its more apparent on some tracks then others but for example on "Jay-z - kingdom come" (full volume) it gets to a point where i cant listen, there is a high frequency sound coming up and from listening to the song it seems to be there instead of the base. Not sure if its the terrible quality of the speakers, im on t-mob and i hear they limit the volume so could that be having an effect.
also let me add it can be like those teenage deterrent devices they put in shops where they play a high pitch noise only teenagers can hear , as with age the ear doesn't pick up as high frequency
testing out a bit , it sounds like instead of base there's a high pitch sound being emitted, is it my device , how is the music player on max volume on you guys devices?
Which device do you own? I have noticed something like that in my Acer Neo Touch S200... Have you found any cure?
No high-pitched noise from my Desire.
I've got this. I does it when the phone is on silent and it receives a text or call (something where a sound would normally be played)
I noticed it today. it seems to happen only when charging!

the sound that comes out in general is way too high in the treble department, unfortunately cant find a good player with a good equalizer to test out if its the phone settings or the speaker

Give astro player beta a go. It has an equaliser.
tried it out, im not sure if its just me or my phone, try a few songs out, high blast, ones with alot of base , see if you experience the same proble, there's a high pitch tone comming out along with the music, its most probz down to poor speaker, its the same issue on youtube,
i tried it with Jay Zs Kingdom Come, its very apparent

[Q] Stereo balance adjustment ?

is there any application that controls the stereo balance between left and right speakers of the headset globally ?
The headset's right speaker volume is slightly lower than the left one, I'm already using poweramp to listen to music as it has this option, but I want it to be global not for poweramp only D it really annoys me while watching YouTube videos

Audio Hiss Problems on the One X?

Couldn't see a specific topic on this issue so thought I'd start one up.
In certain situations I'm getting a very noticeable amount of audio hiss when playing sound over headphones via the One X. So far I've tried the following headphones with the following results:-
Apple iPod headphones - low level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Sennheiser HD 457 Open back Headphones - very low level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by a slightly audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Sennheiser MM50 earphones with Mic - high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Sony DR-BT22 Bluetooth Headphones - very high level of hiss when any sound being played (music, streaming radio or volume up/down chime) followed by an audible crackle as the hiss stops around 0.5 to 1 second after the sound stops.
Is anyone else able to replicate these issues? Is this something that can be fixed in software? The constant hiss and crackle when using my preferred headphones is really starting to annoy me
I'm not getting any hiss with my sennheiser 555s - in fact, its quite transparent at all volumes. There is a slight pop about 1 second after ending a track on any player - stock music app, doubletwist, grooveshark

Noticed this as well at low volume on speech based Podcasts, it's really annoying.
Different headphones seem to filter it out better but with my usual in the ear headphones it is unbearable.
So the One X does not seem to be better than my own SGS2.
Oh well, I was thinking of getting this. Would probably skip it now. I don't have hopes of LG or Huawei or Motorola delivering something to rival this or the SGS3, so I will probably wait for the SGS3.
Yes, I've noticed this too, with my Bose QC 3's. I assumed it was something to do with the noise cancelling on the headphones but maybe it's a fault with the device?

I get a whine on my car speakers that I didn't get on my desire, only when there is no audio playing though

Same problem with my Sennheiser CX300II
I don't know if it's hardware or software...
Got some new headphones this morning (JVC HAFX1X) and with these the hiss is sooooo bad
Same here. It went good untill i plugged phone into the charger. Every 2 minutes it hisses..
Then rebooted phone while charging, problem gone.
Mine is charging now and I'm listening to music for the last 4 hours - I don't hear anything.
Could it depend on the player used?
My headphones do not have any active noise cancellation.
I don't listen to music so I can't comment on that but I do notice an audible pop / crack noise sometimes when a sound is played. It doesn't happen all the time but a good example is when I use Twitter and pull it down to refresh. There are two sound effects that play, one as you pull it down and one as it refreshes. The noise happens after you pull it down for the first sound only. I'm only mentioning it here in case the two are related as I've not seen anyone else mention a pop / crack noise.
Sounds like audio processing thread is being run at too low priority.

[Q] Bad music sound quality on Desire via headset

Hi all,
I really enjoy listening to music a lot, and wanted to use my Desire as a MP3 player, so I don't have to drag my iPod around as well.
Now - I get _really_ disappointed with the quality of sound that comes out of that phone.
Be it net radio, last.fm or flac music on the SD card, I hear a lot of interference from the WLAN and 2g/3g network on the headphones (you know. bssssss / dak-a-dak-a-dak, brrrrr, depending on which connection I am on). Not very loud, but very disturbing if you are listening to low-volume music.
Do you suffer from the same problem? Did anyone find a solution to this?
(I found a few similar posts, but none really matching as they cover speaker/BT headsets)
I use my Desire to play mp3 and to listen FM and streaming radio and I've never heart any interference.
Maybe it's another device what is causing the noise?
I also use my phone to listen to music / podcast and never noticed any interferences.
Did you check your headset cable (I've noticed it's the biggest unwanted noise generator when listening to music on the go) ?
Well - partly it is indeed my headset cable.
Although I am using Sennheiser cx150, which sound quality is really good in my opinion, it seems that the cable is very poorly shielded.
So I tried with various other earphones, and the interference is less. Still not gone, which still annoys me, but less.
Oh well, i gonna spend another bunch of money for new headphones until I get a new phone :-(
Thanks, all.
