I just notice that my Note 7 is emitting a low static noise if I charge it without using Samsung own charger. I tried using a few different portable batteries and I still hear the same very low static noise.
Sometimes this noise can be so prominent that I immediately unplug it.
My power outlet has one of those USB slot, I tried it and it produces the same noise.
Should I just return the phone? The battery drains like crazy.

I just used the usb adapter for the first time today and when I plug the usb cable into the phone the adapter makes this high-pitch frequency sound. It's similar to the mosquito ringtone that teens love so much. It stops when the phone is done charging. Does anybody else have this problem?
I noticed this yesterday, but it was only when the Incredible was fully charged.
I'm cycling the battery right now, so when I plug it in again...I'll get back to this thread.
The power supply that came with my G2 has started making a faint noise, almost like it's squeaking or creaking. I leave it plugged in all the time with the USB cord in it.
Is this normal or should I try to return it?
Depending on their design, some switched-mode power supplies will emit a faint "eeeeeeeeeeeee", it's usually nothing to worry about as it's just the internal circuit doing its thing.
However, if it starts getting louder then it could be a sign of capacitors failing.
Best practice is to leave it switched off when you're not charging your phone...
HTH
This, I hear as well, happens when its not charging.
Normal... cheap power adapter.
Hi all,
I have the Telus version of the SIIX that came with the ETA0U80JBE "Travel Adapter" (small black cube with a usb port). I noticed today that when the charger is plugged in the wall, it makes a very high pitched noise. That noise stops when a load is connected to the adapter (for example, when my phone is charging). I was wondering if other users had the same problem.
Thanks!
Same problem
Hi there,
I've noticed he same problem with my GSII from Bell; a very high pitched noise from the charger cube but it becomes really low or goes away when I connect my phone for charging.
Did you manage to find any solution to this problem??
Thanks,
David
Replace the transformer inside, or, get a new charger?
Fixed problem on other charging devices (ex. laptop) by opening it up and separating wires that shouldn't have been in contact...I did this because laptop chargers for instance, are not cheap....in your case...if ur bored, go for it...if not just buy a new one

I noticed that my Nexus charger makes noise when it's in the wall with my phone unplugged.
The sqeaky sound goes away when i plug in my phone.
Is anybody else experiencing this?
I'm going back to the store tomorrow for a replacement.

well, every charger i had was silent or at least never make a big noise like the cheap samsung one..a little noise can be normal for a charger, but hey the samsung one does a very high frequency noise..
never happened with other charger, because usually it is plugged near my bed..the first night i plugged the samsung charger i noticed it soon..
anyway it seems to happen with about every samsung wall traver charger of every phone..btw i "solved" by just plug the charger when i have to charge the phone..
I have the exact same issue. I have a socket with an on/off switch on my night stand table that I switch on/off when I need to use the charger. It's mostly to get rid of the high pitched noise though. And yes it disappears when you plug your phone in.
Mine even makes a 'discharging' squeak noise when I pull it right out of the wall socket after letting it squeak for a while. It's probably the capacitors inside charging/discharging. No harm, but annoying.

So here's my issue: I have an extra battery kit, and lately I have noticed that, when a battery is charging, after a while, the craddle would go from a steady red light to a flashing orange light. Upon inspection, there's a ticking sound coming from the wall charger.
Do you think I need to replace it?
Here's the audio
P.S. The sound you hear is with the charger not plugged in

Well.. With any hardware issue. If you try a different wall charger does the same thing happen?
