So its not really a huge issue but I would appreciate it if its fixed, so I am checking if anyone else is experiencing this.
There is a pop sound that is pretty clear (higher than the keyboard tap sound) everytime I do anything that will produce voice, like for example typing on the keyboard.
It pops up and everything is sounding good and then when I don't do anything that has to do with sound for about 5 seconds another pop sounds happen but is lower.. And then, first key tap brings up the pop sound again.
Its more like the speaker is activated so it pops in and then deactivated when not used so it pops out.. Like when you plug headphones to the computer for example, it is that sound.
It became annoying after a while so I had to disable the keyboard tap sound at least not to get that everytime I start writing something and especially annoying in chats where you get to pause between writing so you get to have the pop every other line.
If anyone is experiencing this, please cool my heart off cause that might mean its a software thing.
Thank you

Yes, I notice it when my Note 2 it's connected to external speakers.
This video explains why:

I just noticed this recently, maybe a day or two, but when I turn off my phone, I hear a loud sound from the speaker, not exactly sure what it is. Is this a phone problem?
Shouldn't be a weirs pop loud sound.
There's an option in sounds to enable or disable screen lock sound. Try disabling it and see if that fixes it

I tried that, it doesn't seem like the lock screen sound. I don't know how you'd describe it other than imagine force shutting down an old laptop by holding the power button and you hear some part of the computer shutting of instantly, but loudly? thats the best i can do lol
I noticed that sound too. But only once using a reboot tool. Uninstalled the app. Nothing since.
I got it a few times while doing unlocking/rooting, just about jumped from my seat the 1st time heh. Not during normal off/resets.
Same thing
Has anyone found a solution to this? I get it every time I reboot. Powering off normally doesn't 'pop'.
The exact search term is " Volume+ (Sound Boost) " in the android market . You can copy & paste that into the android market search field minus the quotation marks. The free version doesn't have sound boost in it's title and the volume level won't go up high enough. In preferences in the app, you need to be able to select somewhere between 8-10. Too low, nothing and too high doesn't work either.
Very important, when you download the app for the first time, there is quick one time visual tutorial. Do everything exactly what it says to do, if not, won't work. If you can take screen shots of the directions, your better off. After that one time, you would have to un—install and than re—install to see it again. It only comes up right after the initial install.
The only variance is your volume number in the preferences . Test, if it's working, by listening to the preset ring tones in the system settings of the phone.
I was afraid, that I might of had to exchange the phone because the speaker volume was so bad. This app makes a significant difference.

You can get the full version for free from the developers site which has a link in the Market page of the lite version.
I keep mine set on 10 and it gives me the perfect volume.
It's the way the phone should have come.....
I am surprised samsung or google have not rectified this with the last 2 ota updates.

thanks for the info, will try this when i receive my GN
10 makes a difference but isn't there a chance of blowing the speaker by doing this or are we safe?

Help!
By any chance do you remember the steps? I just bought the app but accidently pressed the back button on the tutorial part. Is there anyway to go back to it?

thanks guys it helps alot

FYI there is an updated version at developers site 1.8.0.6 that adds ability to view the tutorial on demand.
I bought V+ and it helped with some of the settings, but not all. I rooted the phone as well. I might be returning it. It is a big disappointment.
Has anyone tried this with a bluetooth headset? I tried and am not getting any results. Tried "Headset" and tried "Bluetooth" settings, separately and together.

Do you do that natively with a bluetooth head unit. I have a car with bluetooth head unit and when I make a call and I'm using Nav at the same time it plays the Nav through the speakers....otherwise it doesn't.
Wondering if I can do likewise so any information would be greatly received.
Thanks
So recently everytime I get the annoying orange highlight bar around text on these apps, there's a loud beeping noise. I don't know how to disable it and it does it even in silent mode. Also it disrupts and cuts off music playback. Sometimes it'll do it on the browser as well. Anybody know what it is?

So when I had my sensation, my phone had the Facebook pop when I get a message or post... Since upgrading to the a S3, my phone no longer pops...I checked the settings on the Facebook app and that sound and notification is enabled but it just vibrates. Even in the Facebook notifications menu when I select the pop it just is silent... Any ideas?

Is there anything in the sdcard/media/audio/notifications/ folder? There is a Facebook sound in that folder for me.
I don't have notifications turned on so not sure on the making a noise part.

Here's some of the stuff I've done in the past to rectify goofy notification problems.
I would triple check all of your volume sliders first. Sometimes the volume slider for a particular function is turned on (Media, Notifications etc) but you have silent/vibrate turned on and in the settings the system knows to follow your silent/vibrate choice regardless of where the volume slider is set to (I assume, this is so that when you decide to go out of silent/vibrate mode, it will return to your previously selected volume for that feature). In this case, that volume may be set to 0.
I've had a few quirks like this where I assumed I had volume turned on for something, but for whatever reason it was following a rule in some setting someplace which overrides the volume setting. Or, even when coming out of silent/vibrate, the volume setting was 0 anyways, so it's like nothing got changed.
Also check your phone settings for notifications etc. I've noticed that sometimes when an App has notification settings, they can quarrel with the phone settings and shenanigans ensues.
You might also try getting another 'Pop' ringtone. Zedge works well.

Thats interesting... i wonder what the format is.. Thats the only thing i can think of keeping it from playing..
It's a m4a file... I went and downloaded the exact same pop from zedge and set it as my Facebook notification and it works... Weird

i never had this before on ICS. Only now on JB.
Might have something to do with the audiodriver, i recall a similar issue on one of the musicbox mods ....... the closing of the sounddriver caused small ticks like you descibed. As if it is getting a peak signal.

Hi, I experienced the same on my HOX some days after purchasing it last August. It was running ICS and in my case I had installed a Sound Equalizer app which in my case seems to have been the reason of the clicks. I wrote to the assistance service and thay suggested me to remove this crap and since then I had no clicks ever. If you have any Equalizer or Sound Booster app, I suggest you to remove them and give it a try without using them. I hope this can be helpful to someone and please excuse my english.
I don't see why everyone is worrying about this. The sound clicking you describe is more like a POP when a sound or music has ended.
Let me Explain why this happens:
The sound vibrations are immedietly stopped when the DAC mutes itself when it's no longer needed, this immediate stop for the vibration makes this POP noise. You can get these sounds in all types on electionic devices which can output sound, it's totally normal
You cannot stop these from happening permanently, but there is a way to reduce this. Turn off all sound-altering applications (EQs, Reverbs, Virtualizer, etc) this will cause the sound to vibrate less and thus reducing the loudness of that POP noise
I suggest you to never modify the speaker's audio as the POP noise might worry you (Much louder POP sounds) but there won't be any problem with the speaker
If you like to modify your audio, you will have to get used to that popping noise (like me) and it will sound normal to you in the future.
I hope this information was very helpful
Very ! Nice to see you here zero ! Still developing outside xda, i still have the link from your website but hasn't been there for a while
I think i found what makes this sound ticks. Its the equalizer app that I installed. I tried to turn off the app and the sound ticks were gone.
Thanks for all your responses.
