Hi,
I just bought a Nexus 10 are now having a small problem with a low white noise when I use headphones/headset. When no sound is playing there are no noise, but when a sound is played and thus activating the audio output a low white noise can be heard in the background and is present until the output is closed. The charger is not connected when this happens, and I have tried with 3 different headsets.
Does anyone have an idea how I can fix this or do I need to contact Google/Samsung for a replacement?

i dont know what's wrong but when i bought this audio adapter (see picture attached) and plug it to my 5.1 Altec speakers, the subwoofer started producing noise whenever i touch my XDA. Any conductor that touches my XDA connecting to my body, it produces that noise. If I just leave the unit alone, its just doing ok with great quality sound. And when i tried charging while the speakers are still plugged to XDA, it also produced the same noise. I couldn't play music while charging. What could be wrong? This only occurs whenever i connect my XDA to that speaker, it doesn't occur using other speakers. however, my speakers work fine when connected to my PC
I have a noise problem, I don't think it's quite the same as previously posted noise problems.
I get a hissinh/static noise from the phones speaker (on the back) and from headphones. It is only happening while the phone plays sound (and some seconds later). Every time I up or down the sound with the volume keys, there are noise coming out of the speaker for some seconds. Please report if you have the same issue, especially eith headphones.
I could live with the speaker-noise, it's not that big a deal.. What's worse is it is in the headphones. I have a quite low impedance set of in-ear plugs from creative (I am able to hear the hard drive spinning up in my old mp3-player, but no constant noise) Crap. I want to use the phone for music listening. Question is: software or hardware related? Using JF 1.51 ADP for the record
I hope it is hardware related - I bought mine off ebay, allthoug brand new and everything, I don't know how I would go about getting it fixed/a new one with no receipt. Shipping it back and forth to England isn't really tempting either.
It's not just you, it's piss-poor rf isolation on the audio outputs. Listening with bluetooth doesn't solve the issue either as bluetooth has its own noise.
Yeah, I have yet to listen to a decent pair of BT headsets.
So this is a known problem, and it's definitely a HW issue? The fact that it's only there when sound is played, and is also there with a headset (where shielding around connectors is not and should not be a problem at ALL) made me hope this was softwar related. Argh, what to do then? The sound quality despite this seemed prety decent, although a headache today prevents me from really listening to music and say for sure. Shame.
*Pondering refund options.*
Any chance of isolating around the connector and fixing this, if it is "airborne" caused noise, or will the noice enter the equation before the connector (cabling, sound chip)?
I will try with a relatively high impedance headset (sennheiser 555) and see if it is better there. But can't take them on the bus anyway. But a couple of Ωs could always be added somewhere along the cable and might do some good. Have to have the sound at the lowest levels with the in-ears. Maybe a software fix to lower the volume output will help? Or won't it, if RF noise is the cause?
red: I will buy this item and hope it helps. And will look into lowering the volume output when using headphones as well. Should be possible (atleast it usually is with tweaks in WinMo.)

Hello..lately i'm posting a lot here on xda xD
When i plug in my headphones, sometimes i hear a low noise when I touch the display..this noise i hear only in the left headphone
I tried another pair of headphones and i don't hear this noise, but when i connect speakers from pc and turn them at maximum volume there is present the noise but very very very low... just on my original pair of heaphones is a little more loud
And another thing about this noise, when the phone is playing some sounds(like playing a game, or watching a video) this noise disappears or probably i just can't hear it :-??
Is somebody else who have this problem?
When I use my Bose QC15 headphones with my phone, if I launch an app or press one of the nav keys, I hear a clicking sound through the headphones, like it is turning off and on almost.. I know that sounds odd, but I was wondering if anyone else has this issue and has a possible solution?
Also, when audio is playing this noise stops. It is only when there is no audio playing.
Thanks.
Hi, I'm experiencing the same thing. I bought earphones by Aukey on Amazon and they were doing this clicking that got progressively worse as the call went on. I now bought a pair of Gwee buds. Same problem. Both sound fine on regular audio video and on other phones...

I can report the same problem as well. I have a pair of RHA T20, and I can hear the clicking sound whenever I enable "reverberation" in Viper4Android. Maybe it's your sound setting?
Odds enough, it happens only one the ear that has the Mic attached to it on the Green buds. I'll try the aukeys to compare. I check the sound settings and get back to you too

6P noise also
I use my 6P in my car for navigation and occasional music. I use a cable to connect from the headphone jack to the aux in on the car's sound system. Very often, but not always, I get what sounds to me like cross over noise, playing on both channels. Rhythmic ticks and taps, some buzzes and so forth. I believe it to be digital noise, bleeding in from god knows where. It corresponds to touchscreen activity, and only occurs when the 12v adapted power supply is plugged into the phone. Unplug the USBc and all is quiet, except for what is supposed to be coming through.
I've searched quite a bit and this thread is the closest I've found to my experience. Any ideas?
Hi,
I've been experiencing an issue since I've had this phone for a little more than 1 month.
If I'm wearing my wired earphones (don't have Bluetooth ones) and the phone makes use of the network (as when a video or a song starts to load) I can hear a buzzing distortion sound in the background as long as the download is in progress. In fact, I have a network speed meter on the status bar and when I'm not doing anything the phone jumps from OB/s to 1kB/s every once in a while (which is normal) also resulting in an audible hissing sound in the background through the earphones.
What the hell is this? It's pretty annoying especially when a YouTube video begins to play.
Nothing here
Yup, pretty normal when poor isolation of RF is done hardware-wise. There is probably nothing software that can be done about it except for better frequency filtering on hardware/driver side.
You pretty much have to live with it; back when I still had my Axon I barely noticed it and only when I was lying in bed right before sleep.
I doubt @front firing speakers does not have it on his phone.
You have to be in a very silent environment and set the volume to really really low to be able to notice it.
The Nexus 9 tablet is also very prominent in this regard, or the Nexus 7 2013 speakers (not headphones). A variety of devices have this issue.
What you could do to confirm it is hook up and oscilloscope to your 3.5mm input jack, play a video at exactly ZERO volume and look at the frequency of the signal you got there
