Has anyone noticed the high pitched noise emitted from the dock? As soon as I turn off the screen the pitch changes slightly. As soon as I touch the screen it stops, and no im not moving the xoom at all to adjust the slightest touch on the screen stops the high pitched noise.
it doesnt seem to stop when playing music either.
the only thing that stops it is interacting with the touchscreen (touching the screen while off doesnt change noise at all)
another neat find.... if i unplug the dock it still makes the noise
Yes mine was doing this too!!! unpluged it and havent tried it sense
i just took mine in to get replaced hoping the dock has the issue.
are you running 3.0 or 3.0.1? are you rooted? are you running the 1.5Ghz overlocked kernel? is it overclocked or just using the standard 1.0Ghz clock speed
i am *thinking* the kernel may be causing this but am reluctant to flash the stock back just yet.
just got my replacement and the noise is gone i would take yours back there might be a faulty batch floating around.
... seems to have started again, but isn't happening all the time. i'll run through some test cases to narrow it down.
Sounds like a ground issue if you are able to touch it to stop it.
Exactly, think about it for a second. You touch the screen, completing the electric circuit. You have grounding issues and I bet the speakers use a non grounded plug which sucks.

Yup grounding issue looks to be the problem.Wonder if its the way the docks charge the xooms? And the transformers in the power packs for the phones whine as well which drives me nuts at night.
I do not have this issue, but have what is probably a related issue. I have a pair of external speakers plugged into the dock. When I remove the Xoom there is a loud hum throughthe external speakers.
The speakers and dock are plugged into the same power strip. I may return this one and see if a new one is any different.
Very weirdly I noticed tonight that my notifications weren't making a sound. When I dug a little deeper I found I had no sound right across the board, ringtones, notifications. music, youtube, ANYWHERE !
I have looked through all the settings and nothing is set to mute and all volume levels are up. Factory reset has not cured this.
Anyone have any ideas ?
Thanks
I got my phone today...sound worked once then all sounds are gone??? No solution found?!!!! Is it a hardware issue?? Should we return it?
Try plugging in the headphones. Maybe something is wrong with your headphone socket and it thinks headphones are plugged in.

I agree, this has happened to make with previous phones on a few occasions. I think it can happen if you get a little dirt in the headphone socket.
Gave up and returned mine. I couldn't get the sounds back. Hopefully a replacement will be with me in a couple of days.
Did any of you use any software like Volume+, Volume control etc... ?

it has nothing to do with the socket or the headphone, the phone doesnt ring or produce any sound in "normal profile". it just vibrate in all profils . i returned mine too today !
ok so i got my note 3 about 6 days ago and just noticed somthing that i dont like, the headphone jack is acting very strange.
first of all when i plug in a pair of headphones its not a very smooth entry its sort of choppy and doesnt feel very premium,
second, when i plug in my headphones sometimes the microphone stops working, and i hear a very loud thump everytime i change the track. now i noticed that it only happens if i insert the headphones slowly, and not only that but if i do that there is a horrible screetching sound coming from the headphones, it doesnt seem normal and it seems like a hardware issue.
thanks
Definitely seems like a hardware issue, have you tried other headphones. Shined a light down the headphone jack and see if there is any debris in there.

yea nothing in the hole but just to be clear its only if i plug it in slowly if i do it normally it doesnt happen, im at work right now so i cant try diferent headphones,
edit: ok its definitely a ground loop problem, it makes a static noise when i touch the screen worse if i put more and more fingers
Hello, I had my s3 sitting for a while and decide to use it (haven't used it for 7-8 months). So I go on Youtube and watch a video. The speaker works fine but whenever I insert the 3.5 mm jack, I cant hear anything and if I remove it the speaker stop working.
I have tried multiple ROMS (CM13, DU 5.1, Stock 4.4.2) but they all seem to have the same issue. I also tried 3 different headphones.
What could be the issue?

it could very well be a hardware issue, did you replace the headphone jack/speaker assembly?

Since I got this phone, nothing has been replaced other than the battery.. And besides I don't think its a hardware issue since we have more than 2 to 3 people experiencing the exact same issue..

Check if speakerphone works, if it does, then it is likely that the hp jack is jammed and causing the phone to disable the speaker because it thinks headphones are plugged in.

The speaker works fines expect when you plug in the jack and remove it the speakers stop working. I have the restart the phone to get the speakers working.

Yes, it sounds like a hardware issue of the headphone jack being jammed or broken. If the issue is exactly the same on all roms, I would definitely replace the headphone jack, they are not that expensive, only $7

Why I don't think this issue might be a hardware issue is that, when ever I plug the phone to a wall socket and connect the headset jack, the sound comes on. But some few minutes after taking it off the wall socket, the sound is gone. And I have to restart the phone to get the sound working again..

Have you ever had issues with charging or data transfers using the USB port?

if the speaker works but headphone doesn't then it may be that the phone detects some other audio device on usb. Do you hear any sounds at all through the headphones, also do the playback controls on the headphone work? If they do it may be the audio IC
Yeah, the controls on the headphone do work when this occurs.. And I don't hear any other sound..
Mind you, Immediately after inserting the jack, all the sound (speaker and headset) system in the phone is lost. Until I do a restart.
Hey does any one have an issue with the aux cables in car that it interrupts the music often when playing ?
Please give a solution if you could fix it
The issue occurs when the volume and bass is too high , you need decrease the volume of the smartphone.

Okay will certainly try that thank you
Do you use a case or protective hull? I had the issue that the headphone jack doesnt fit all the way in with the case attached.
Mine does the same thing. Can't figure it out Everytime I lock the screen with the aux cable it pauses but no problem with Bluetooth. Any ideas is appreciated

It would totally makes sense, this is a protection which limits volume automatically to preserve your ears.
It cannot know it is plugged in a car
Hello to everbody here is the same problem as you guys
When i increase the sound in my car with AUX Cable and get the maximum volume it is disccounected i do not want to DISCONNECT help me in advise
Any Suggesions ?
For me the aux cable works just fine if i connect headphones or earphones when i connect it to car stereo it sometimes works and sometime it just keeps on stoping the music. I think issue is with low quality cable, I might be wrong but after buying a cable that is of good quality my issue has been resolved.
