Hey, guys!
I have the following problem: sometimes, when i call somebody, i hear in my phine sharp sounds. they are so sharp, that i cannot even hold the device near my ear. do you know what can be the problem?
That's my problem too, so weird but that sharp sound is getting more often everyday. In a call when phone is near by body is makes a sharp sound. It's a magnetism problem maybe i do not know.. :?:
same thing happens here (spv m3000)
And besides sometimes ,I can feel small electrical current while holding the phone , I think there must be a short circuit with the battery
Don't you all have the same carrier? :?
My phine is so sharp it cut my ear
I don't think that we all have the same carrier. it must be a hardware problem
and if your ph(o)(i)ne did cut your ear, you don't need to use a razor then :lol:
so what do you guys think we can do in this case. a friend of mine, who also has a qtek 9100, also has this problem. to tell you the truth, i hate it. it bother's me a lot, because i cannot talk normally on it. if i use bluetooth hadsfree, everything is ok, never had those sharp sounds.
i think that there is a problem with the internal speaker
Any of you overclock the phone. it's not a speaker problem because if it was must be permanent . Not everytime does this, I can't figure it out in which circumtances do this problem rise. As you said if you take the phone away from your body(wired/BT headset or Speakerphone On) it stops.
i used to overclock it, but since i saw that the clock is going down again to 180 by itself, i stopped doing it. now i am not overclocking, but these sharp sounds still occur.
i have overclocked it only once. but it happened also before overclocking.
so, it means this is not the problem. i think this is because of some problems with the network, may be worse coverage, or vice versa, because of a very good coverage
It should have been an hardware(magnetism) or phone software (ROM upgrade) problem; no network or something can cause this for my opinion.
first of all we must find the common circumtances to figure out what causes this
about magnetism.. do you use the original case?
i use it, and some times when i pull out my phone from it, the screen rotates because of it's magnets
may be you are right. last time i remember these sharp sounds, i was wearing its original case.
I do never use case. i am out then.
Maybe our anger makes us flow electric current more :lol:
it means that its not the case to blame.

When I'm on the phone with the Cingular 8525, I would randomly hear some kind of soft typing/clicking noise through the speaker.. I tried talking on the phone with my bluetooth headset and I still hear the damn noise!
Anyone else experience this?
possible screen tap sound from your cheek or something in your pocket (when using bluetooth) touching the screen? turn off screen tap sounds and see if it goes away.
I hear the same thing when I'm driving down the Pennsylvania Turnpike... It just may be one of the reasons I return this phone... Never had this issue w/ my other phone.

I used to get various clicks/sounds, which were meant to be there but annoying until I turned off event sounds etc.

nah, my screen tap sounds are off, and im 100% sure im not touching the screen causing it to press buttons.. also with my bluetooth the phone can be sittin on my desk and i still hear the faint clicking/type writer noises
this is really starting to annoy me.. i'm really wondering if this is a problem with teh 8525's or if its just my phone thats defected

I'm not aware of this being reported by others, except for a couple on this thread. So if event sounds are of and no apps running like push mail then I would think it's a faulty device.
Just for info you described the noise but I'm not clear whether this is an occasional sound or a more or less continuous noise. I'm afraid this device when you get a good one is briliant but there is a high number of flakey ones out there. Warranty return??

I'm on my second one and it seems to be on a certain strip along the Pennsylvania Turnpike that this persists... Anyone else still experiencing something like this?

You're probably well aware of this but just in case. Turning of screen tap sounds is not the same as turning off event sounds. Event sounds can be heard for all sorts of reasons including taping screen i.e when application starts to open but also as for example a wifi network is detected and any other event like switching from 3g etc etc.

My unit just started that weird rhythmic clicking sound this Friday. I've had the unit for a month. I get the noise in all places I've used the phone - all around the city.
The clicks happen in pairs, 1 pair roughly per second. A sequence of these pairs lasts between 3 and 10 iterations. Then a break the length of one pair and off they go again.
I too have done a soft reset and stopped all apps running. The clicking persists.
hi everyone,
thanks for looking at this, i am a new user and have just have noticed that when you hold the bottom half of the handset where the navigational buttons are to your ear, you can hear a definate buzz. it is a high pitched ring and i can only hear it when it is fully on (not on standby), and it makes the noise in flight mode.
is this normal? isit a fault, should o2 take it in for repair? does anybody know any solutions or causes?
thanks for your help,

I've never had a phone that buzzed but friends have had 'em. If I were you and it's under warranty, I'd at least call up, describe the problem and see what the carrier/manufacturer say about it. My friends never had a phone die on them because of it, but it never got better on it's own and it seems to be the display, leaving you nothing you can really do yourself.

This is where the vibrator is located in the MDA (top right corner) maybe it will help. This sounds like a service issue.
I recently read this posts . I have the same problem.
how did you fixed it ? btw, it is definetly the screen making noise, i dismantled the phone and turned it on and the screen was making that noise. It is verry annoying + if you try to overclock the cpu the noise changes frequency.
have a nice day !
ps. sorry if i revive a dead and old topic, but the issue is unsolved.

Haha don't worry about it mate... I took it to the shop and the guy explained that the sound is the frequency of the screen - like your tv. It's nothing to worry about and the sound won't get worse.
i was thinking it had smth to do with the frequency, it;s weard that some phones have that sound and some don;t.
I've got an original O2 Atom (with the latest official O2 ROM installed). It has a very anoiying hissing noise when the unit is on. I.e. if it's on standby (so blank screen) and you press the power button the noise starts when the screen comes to life. It continues the entire time even if the backlight turns off, doesn't stop until it goes back onto standby.
I've had a bit of a Google search and found this - http://www.fixya.com/support/t227104-getting_hissing_noise_when_backlight - but there's no answer/solution.
The noise apart from being very anoiying makes phone calls quiet painful. Any ideas/solutions?
I only got this unit a couple of days ago cheap and secondhand, and I'm pretty sure that it hasn't been making this noise all the time...
i got this problem before. Its the hardware Touch Screen defact. Nothing you can do unless warrently is still in force. Changing thru your own pocket will cost more than wat you paid for it. Sorry...
mmmmmmmmm....dont get me started on this topic!!!
However, the noise does subside over time and be careful not to depress the LCD whilst the handset is in your pocket as this make the noise louder. Changing the LCD is a waste of time the noise starts again after a short time, Atom Life, Atom Exec and standard Atom have the same LCD, Mobo and yes......the same problem....
What you can do.......... power off after answering a call............try not to apply any pressure to the screen.
Dang, that really sucks. Makes such a nice phone a peice of poo now - I'lll be shifting it off shortly then.
So there's no real feasable solution.
I'm so dispointed, the more I use this phone, the more I'm liking it, but then every time I get a phone call I feel like droping it into the nearest bin!

you can power off on a phone call.

And it won't hang up? That's brilliant, I'll be able to live with the phone now!
Hi, just got my Note 3 and it is a wonderful device. However, a little issue on the vibration is bugging me at the moment. When I set the vibration intensity at the highest level, there is a slight rattling / out of the ordinary sound for the first 0.5 to 1 second of the vibration. Subsequent vibrations sound normal. No issues at the other lower vibration intensity level. Just wanna find out whether others have the same problem or my phone is defective.
Yep, the same here. I don't consider this as an issue though.

Thanks. I'm ok wif it too, just worried something inside is loose.
is it an issue.. is not normal for a new device. got mine replaced and no more sound when is set to highest
I am having the issue described as well and am curious about how widespread it is. So far in this thread two users report experiencing it, while one says that a replacement device does not exhibit the same behaviour. Adding myself into the mix that makes it 3-to-1 noticing the slight brief buzz at the beginning of the vibration, when set to the highest intensity. It's an even bigger issue when using a multiple quick-repeating vibration, as the little rattle/buzz sound will happen at the beginning of each individual pulse. A small issue maybe, but an irritating one.
Can anyone else confirm either definitely having, or not having this issue?
To test it, it's easiest to go to Vibration Intensity under settings, and flip the slider back and forth between the highest, and second highest levels, to see if you notice a difference. In my case, it sometimes won't happen depending on how/tightly I'm gripping the phone. Most often it will though.
Has anyone with this minor issue managed to find a fix for it?
I have just bought 2 note 3, the first one was a French version which had the rattle, I returned it and got a new one, this time the one they had in the store was the Portuguese version, and guess what, same thing.
both were sealed and brand new, I really want to keep the phone but this is very annoying... (the rattling is an issue for me)

So far only one person in this thread has reported not having the issue, and that with a replacement for one that presumably did. I'd love to know how widespread the issue is as it seems quite common from the posts here, but there's really no way to know with so few responders.
The rattle doesn't seem to be from something actually loose inside, since on the long vibration (incoming phone call) the buzz sound only lasts for the first tenth of a second, of the two-second or so total duration. A loose piece would keep rattling the whole time, so it seems more related to the vibration motor itself starting up. Also, clamping my hand around the both phone edges semi-tightly seems to prevent the buzz, so it could be interaction between the motor and the frame.
My only workaround so far has been to set vibration intensity to the second highest level, which is not really much weaker than the highest and does not produce the buzz/rattle sound.
I just got my phone today and I'm noticing it. I was almost wondering if that was how it was supposed to sound. E either way it annoys me.

hmm, the issue was more widespread that i initially thought. the rattle is kind of annoying. still considering whether to send it to the service centre coz not sure whether they can solve it.
