Apologies if someone has posted about this, but I couldn't find anything.
I have an infrequent problem during phone calls, where there is a popping/zapping sound that comes from the internal speaker. It doesn't sound like normal reception difficulties so much as an electrical zapping sound from the speaker itself - sort of like the speaker is short-circuiting for a split-second (the zap is very brief).
The weird thing is, though, if I make a Skype call it's far more prominent/frequent - suggesting that it might have something to do with the quality of connection.
I don't have any issues with my bluetooth headset or handsfree.
Anyone experienced something similar?
I have it sometimes
Hello people!
I believe I have the same problem as you guys and it has become more severe till yesterday. It has become more difficult to listen to people but for just one call about an hour ago it became normal again but just for a while...
I have bought the phone about 25 days ago and I'm sceptical as to whether I should ask for a new device.
What do you all think?
Does this problem persist for you?
How long have you had your DHD?
Thanks in advance
For me it's bearly a problem. Happens almost never. I have my device since November 11
its a big problem and not limited to just the HD. It also occurs on the Z as well. It never happens on a 3g connection just on a 2G call. I returned my HD because of this, purchased a Z because i thought it was limited to the HD but it wasnt;( I have now sold my Z and awaiting the release of the Nexus S. It really has put me off HTC phones for life;( You wont get this problem if you are living in a good 3g area.

I've noticed over the past few weeks that my TyTN now seems to be interfering with itself. As in the noise that your speakers make when your phone is near them and communicating with the tower. Only it seems to be doing this to it's own internal speaker. Btw my service is Cingular. Anyone else experiencing this?
My 8525 just started doing that about a week ago.
It's a faint sound just like you would hear through radio speakers
except it's coming right from the headset. (not speaker-phone)
Yea, it's just as if that gsm interference sound is interfering with it's own speaker.
Others have reported a louder noise coming the back speaker when their Hermes was just setting on the table or night stand.
In response someone suggested that maybe the battery wasn't insulated well enough.
I have cingular and I had a similar problem with my Razr, so far I haven't had the problem with my 8525 which I just got last week. It was really annoying.
I've found that this only tends to happen when I have the display turned off. Also, turning the display on when this happens appears to immediately stop it. Odd.
it seems the speaker on the hermes is not shielded properly. i had this problem on my old samsung z100.
Same here with my v1605 - an annoyingly loud hum. After a soft reset, it does not occur until any sound file (e.g. ring tone) is played. Switching the display on stops it temporarily.
With my first one, it started after about a week and became really annoying, so I got it swapped. With the replacement I got then it occured twice so far, but it has been quiet now for maybe 10 days.

Ditto with my 8525. Very annoying.
I'm having the same issue with a brand-new 8525. It doesn't always seem to happen (I'm using direct push), but sometimes when it is receiving mail it will.
Anyone found a fix or really nailed down what the issue is?
yeah, i have a similar problem. whenever i'm connecting to a phone call or data session it makes buzzing noises in my computer speakers. i would love a fix for this.
Is it only me or is everyone with HD experienceing noise during a voice call. The other person don't complain about it but at my end there is always a distorting noise from an earpiece during a voice call like a an electric interference. (and this is irrelevant to my location or signal strength - I get it everywhere).
should I get my HD replaced by Orange ?
I also experienced the weird electronic interference sound, but only twice so far (I've had the phone for over one month). The person on the other end couldn't hear it either time, and it only lasted a couple of seconds. It hasn't been a significant problem for me and I haven't heard it in a while.
I can also confirm that strange noise appeared during calls at least few times in last month and a half of usage. On some occasions I would hear my own last word being distorted and on others simply static-interference effects. Nothing too bad, but it does happen.
Hi all,
I've experienced this too.
1. Which ROM version do you use ? I've upgraded mine and the noise disappeared.
2. Yesterday I heard that noise again (first time for 10 days), but it was very silent and about 3-4 seconds. Then I realise that the noise is coming while in call ONLY when I am at home.
So I think that there might be some problem with the operator cell covering my house.
Anyway ..... try to find suitable NEW ROM for your phone ....it will make things better I hope.
Good luck!
P.S.:
Old ROM : 1.14.405.0 WWE
New ROM : 1.14.479.3 WWE
It's OK now
Hey guys, I have had my Touch HD for a little less than a month.
I am extremely happy with everything about it...
But a couple of days ago, I started experiencing a static type noise during calls only. It seems like there is an interference or something every time I place a call.
I have never dropped it since I got it so I know I didn't break anything.
I purchased a Squaretrade warranty when I bought the phone. Do you think that I should send it in? What do you think is the problem?
Is is it on incoming, out going or all calls? Have you tried using the headphones that the phone came with? Do you still hear the noise with those???
I am having the same problem. Is this a hardware or a software issue?
I am also getting some static interference noises on calls only , only had my phone under a week , would a firmware upgrade fix this or is this a hardware fault?

It is on both incoming and outgoing calls.
I tried the headphones that came with the phone and I don't hear static with them.
Also, when using the speaker phone, it does not make any static noises.
Any takers?
Yep mine has static too, it can help a bit to hold the device high up since the Aerial is at the bottom.
I had the same problem. Only heard the static when using the phone to my ear. Never when using a bluetooth headset or the speaker on the back. I tried several hard resets and phoned HTC. I've since sent the handset back. I'm waiting to hear if they are giving me a new handset or a refund as I had only had the phone for 5 days.
I done a load of searching and couldn't find anyone else with the same problem. HTC said it was a new problem to them but it looks as though there are a few of us.

Please keep us updated on what they have to say about your situation.
Hi,
Im still getting that static noises , Also getting it when im playing audio on windows media player , Ive also tried core player , still same , so it's not the windows software , I reckon could be a hardward fault.
i have a orange htc touch hd .
does any1 else get these noises when playing any audio ?
I'm thinking the problem is hardware related. Seems like something is loose, connectionwise.
Whenever I hear the static in call, and kind of jiggle the phone around or press the screen and back together it goes away for a little bit.
I am going to take advantage of my warranty I believe.
Well I dropped my phone today and it appears the static noises in call have disappeared.
Hehe well I'm not trying that one out I also have the statice noise in call but its only at one person and its always the same one :\
So maybe I should drop that person on the floor
Onboard Speaker noise / crackling
I've had my HD since Friday, and I'm having the same noise. I hear it as soon as I press send and intermittently during all calls. When it goes away, if I stay really still, I don't hear it till I move. Really irritating for an $800 phone. I called the guy at the phone store where I bought it and he told me to call HTC.
i have the same problem .. sometimes the noise disapear when i press on battery cover, anyone found a solution for that problem
Hi all a friend off mine has had his sg3 for a week or so now. When in a call he can hear people just fine but the other person has problems with the sound fading i.e its clear one minute the next goes distorted and very low (does this all the time). He is getting a full signal and the other people are as well. This happens on different phones so its something to do with his sg3. Was wondering if anyone else had this problem and if so how do you fix it.

Edit: Just realised this should off been in the Q&A section sorry
Hi guys/girls,
I'm facing a weird issue: while making outgoing or recieving call I get alot of static sound and calls sound like I'm underwater. I live in a large city with good signal, the phone wasn't tampered with since it's brand new, a couple of weeks old, but whatever option I pick for the sound quality during calls, the sound ends messed up like in 3 out of 5 calls. I'd like to stay on stock rom, and I'd rather not return my phone since I'm prett sure it's software related since my brother has the same issue. Oh, and the issue is persistant wether I use headphones or not.
Thanks for any suggestions. :good:
