Do you guys have problem with buzzing sound when using headphones? Also notice the jack not fully going in the port because of the way it was designed do you think this is the one causing it? I've tried different headphones but the buzz is still present specially when i'm typing

I was gonna make a thread similar to this. my headphones don't seem to work. they wont go in all the way. now I have like a lil surround sound system that has a headphone plug. now that works but I have to kinda play with the plug. It goes in more than headphones plug. I can't get my headphord to work. only surround sound system work. what is exact size of nexus 7 headphone jack? I wonder if it actually supposed to use the smaller size plug.
Is there buzzing when moving your finger around the screen? And when WiFi icon is animating (causing a clicking sound).
Mine does this, I'm thinking the screen is causing interference or something. Buzzing sound is still there with the device volume off, I have to turn down the volume on my hearing aid instead to avoid it, I use a special headphone lead that goes into the aid.
yes buzzing is mostly present when using the screen that's what I noticed. are you guys planning to return it? Did u complain to Google customer service?

I'm not sure they will do anything, I bought mine retail.
Something else I did was hold the 3.5mm jack against the mini-usb port, also hearing buzzing from touching the screen. Definitely some interference running through the connections.
On my 7 and Gnex the 3.5mm jack was a little stiff when I first used it. It should appear to be all the way in on the front but the back does have a pretty big gap. When I first used my headset on my GNex it was buzzing because I had not pushed it in all the way. The last click was VERY stiff. I did notice it on the 7 but not as much probably because I was expecting it. If it looks to be all the way in on the front then I would return it. I can confirm crystal clear audio on my n7 with no buzzing at all at any time. If your device has anything defective on it they should replace it. I purchased mine from staples and had a dead pixel on my first one and returned it immediately. Any where that sells this device(GameStop, OfficeMax, or staples) should have a return policy.
Also when the plug is in all the way it should be hard to spin. If its out just a little bit it will spin freely

i have buzzing/interference as well.
the interference is very, very minor when the device is not plugged in to the wall. however, when it is plugged in, the interference is almost unbearable. i can hear it change as i swipe the screen. if i'm listening to music and i turn the screen off, i get a really high pitched buzzing sound. the moment i turn the screen back on, it's back to the just generally crappy buzzing/static.
the shielding/grounding is pretty bad on this device. that being said, i can probably go without using it while charging it, but it's an inconvenience nonetheless.
I had a hard time getting my headphone jack to even work at all. This is my 2nd N7 , the first had a defective digitizer so I didnt want to return it... Eventually what I did was stick a needle in the jack and wiggle it around a bit. Poof ! My jack magically started working again .

I'm not sure if it's the same issue, but on the Galaxy Nexus, if you have touch sounds enabled, there's a high pitched buzz/whine each time you interact with the phone. It goes away if you disable it though. Again, I'm not sure if this is the same issue but give it a try.
i found when i first plugged in my headphones i hadnt pushed them in far enough... the socket is tight and takes more than that i'd call average force to get the the headphones in fully...
I'm also experiencing this on my Nexus 7 second gen. I have Bluetooth and WiFi on, and plugged into my vehicle aux port with a 3.5mm wire. The buzzing occurs when there is no music or audio passing through the 3.5, it gets worse when I touch the screen or slide on the screen. As soon as I start playing music its fine.
I'm trying to decide if I should return this unit and try a different unit or not.
I also have a new 3.5mm cable in the mail that I want to try as well.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
After unplugging the charger I've noticed a major reduction in the noise, buzzing, etc. Its not completely gone, but its better. Still wondering if anyone else has encountered this with gen 2 Nexus 7.

Lack of 3.5mm sucks and the supplied dongle has too much stuff that ill never use most of the time - do they make aftermarket dongles with audio only ever for HTC devices? It seems one could make it pretty small and sleek and out of the way...
thx much

awesome - the 2nd one minus the strap is exactly what im looking for - thx!
I'm using this one, because of the charging capability. Works on tilt and fuze.
http://www.semsons.com/2miusband3st.html
I had both.
The second one (with the block connector) is really stupid.
After you plug in your stereo headset, you can't pull out the stylus anymore as it blocks it.
I went back to buy the cable (in the first link) as it is very handy.
Haven't tried the motorola one, but looks clunky.
What's the build quality of these adapters? I bought a similar 3.5mm adapter for a samsung phone on ebay and the build quality was crap--cheap plastic housing that I had to superglue within the first few days. Granted, for $5, one can't expect much and doesn't stand to lose much.

I used that on my tilt. It's alright. I don't like it. It cuts out sometimes and the sound starts coming from the speaker. I absolutely hate it. It sounds like crap compared to the dongle that came with my fuze. So I'm planning on ordering this:

I'm only ordering it because I don't charge my phone anywhere except at it's cradle (which has a 3.5mm output) and when I'm sleeping in my room (then it's hooked up to the audio dongle), so this is mainly for on the go. It looks good. I'll post pics and a review if I do get it.
I got the same one too... Dont plan on using the stylus in the car too much so that wasn't an issue with me. This plug looks sturdy from what I see.. My main issue with the stock plug that came with the phone was its demented behavior when not used with the charger plugged in.. I use this phone similar to my old Moto Q (sound source aux in). When i left the charger unplugged to the charger, no audio would come out of my car stereo..I thought hmm. defective plug.. Take it inside and the audio comes out clean from my headphones.... I then thought lets plug in the charger to see if that cures the issue.. Well it didn't entirely.... I got that lovely alternator whine you get with cheap audio installs. I had to pull the audio plug slowly out of the adapter to get the sound right and even then it slips and I can hear alternator whine...
Please plug be the fix...............................

Hey all my android brethren! I am a modest if not intensive android tester/ researcher and this post is exclusively for the Samsung Vibrant. I have tested over 25 mainstream a/v out cables and have come up with one winner in stability, quality, and greatness haha! The winner is....GIGAWARE 3.5 A/V out cable for camcorders and other devices. The product number is...11A09 and the sku....040293024246. Radioshack has it...good hunti.g and watching your phone be more then what it is!
Update: The red input is actually the video i.e. yellow input, sorry everyone!!
Sounds more like a phone accessory more than phone development...but that might just be me...Thanks for your testing either way.
How much is it?

And your done.. takes all of 20 secs
Note: Make sure to burn off coating on headphone cables, just take a match to each seperate cable.

DRM, and yes, it does suck. But you can work around it by encoding your own and deleting the one that came with the phone. There's even an app in the apps forum to provide the launcher.
I bought this cable about a month ago. it was 30 bucks from radio shack. albeit 10ft long. works good but picture quality is so so. I also bought the samsung hdmi cable but we all know how that went.
i tried the official apple av cable that came with my old ipod, and it worked perfect with my vibrant

Yellow is video - red is right speaker, white is left speaker. What you don't get is stereo sound.
lol, "extensive" testing? Seriously? These cables are composite, the quality will NOT be any better from one to the other. If you have signal issues, then the cable may be defective.
BTW, the audio coming out of the phone is near useless with the 3.5 out. I have to increase my audio on the TV to near max in order to hear comfortably.

None of the micro-USB to HDMI cables seem to work.
Zune HD dock cables work
If your Zune HD owner with dock the Vibrant only needed 3 channel 3.5 mm. I found it out when I was watching some guy using the similar cable. Not HD though but it's a start.
So I swapped my white one for a blue one... Got to say the blue looks unbelievable I'm pleased that I swapped it.
A few issues though, I never tried the headphones with my first one as I knew it was gonna get sent back. But now I've received this one I thought I would get them out. God they are absolutely pants! Comparing them to some old Iphone headphones the the qualify difference is unbelievable. Anyone else noticed that?
Secondly (random i know) any of you guys noticed Max Payne not being available on the Play store for the S3? I thought it was supposed to be one of the most powerful phones out there!

I'm more concerned about the 'noise' from the headphone jack! I dont get any pops/cracks like some others reported but theres a clear background noise >.<
This leaves me wondering if its even worth buying better headphones?
I like the Sennheiser MX580/581. Even after my neice messed with it and got it stuck to the baby carriage wheel its still working.
I don't think there should be background noise from the earbuds its self, its the fact that cellphone audio line is not fully isolated combined with low impedence of the earbuds. Also iem can bevery sensitive to little noises. You have to use headphones with higher impedence. Its hard to not get interference from the audio line out of a cellphone due to so many things going on compared to a dedicated mp3 player.
yeah I have noticed that max payne is not in the market....but it use to be there you know...because I bought it from there for my SGS3....now when I check it is not there.....strange....
Is it possible to buy it from the desktop and do your SIII show up in the compatible list for installation. Also is it a carrier branded device and which.

I thought about screen protectors,but I've ordered the exact same case, I'm just going to leave the back plastic on and the screen should be fine. I do also have the magnetic dock on route. I wasn't aware that there was magnetic cables until after I'd ordered lol. At least it'll look nice.

Yeah that's what you would think. Headphones work but auxiliary cables don't. The current workaround is using a headphone splitter and plugging regular headphones in one socket abd the aux cable to the car stereo in the other

Many folks have said when they went to a good quality auxiliary cable, works fine. I use Bluetooth to my Entune unit in my Tundra, but I did test the aux after reading some of this. My monster cable aux had no issues....

OMG the best buy guy was right, the monster cable does give me better HD.... Dude just admit it, there is a pretty bad bug in that most cables dont work and the ones that do have popping sounds. The phone is also laggy. Think back to the froyo days, that's the way you feel using this phone. and the screen is dim. I'm not some troll, just someone who has owned this and the M8. Between the two I would still choose this one, but more so because the m8 has horrible battery life and an annoying power button that make its a pain to use.

Not sure what ur deal is slappy, but don't try to tell me how my phone acts. I have NO popping, or aux cable issues at all. It is what it is, take it or leave it. I just gave my experience with my phone, my truck, and what others have said. U started the thread, people here try to give input/advice, but if u already know everything why bother? If u don't like the phone, replace it with a device that u will be happy with. Very simple....
I don't have this issue at all. Plug into both a cassette adapter in my beater and an aux cable in my wife's minivan and both work flawless. I get an audible double beep when I plug in, the icon in the status bar shows I'm connected to Aux cable, and my podcasts and Spotify work flawlessly. Aux cable was $4 at the checkout counter of a Walmart and the cassette adapter was from my old XM dashboard receiver. Nothing fancy and no issues at all.

I have an iFrogz aux cable that I got from when I worked at Sprint. My T-Mo G3 works great in my car with that and another cable I have. Never had better sound. Works way better and sounds cleaner than my Nexus ever did.

Yep, all those people with car aux problems using cables that work with every other phone must be doing something wrong since your cable/car/phone combo works lol.
