Does anyone else experience a crackle through their earbuds? It's only really noticeable in things like movies/podcasts where it doesn't get drowned out like it does with music. It's actually pretty annoying and obnoxious, especially in quiet environments. I'm using a pair of xiaomi piston v3s (32 ohm) and don't experience it elsewhere so it is the z5c for sure. I have all sound enhancements turned off; turning them on didn't change anything. It's actually audio distortion.
Yes, I have noticed a crackling with all enhancements turned off. Although i would say it is less a crackle, more a ticking sound in a definite pattern. I have tried with the wifi and bluetooth off and in airplane mode and this noise still persists. It is most infuriating.

hi,
I noticed i always have a bit of noise behind music. At silent parts you really hear that there's static-like noise in the background. Tested with various tracks, always 320kb/s quality. You can hear it over the integrated speaker too, so it's not my headphones.
Anybody else notice this? Is that "normal" for the Omnia 7 or did I get a bad unit?
I think thats normal for all device? need a second opinion, could be wrong. Usually the noise stops when nothing is being played though.
Can't hear any static myself ? Just played a few 320kb Deadmau5 tracks, On some closed cup headphones, and out the rear speaker, Sounds perfect out the headphones, But isn't exactly studio quaility out the speaker phone and never will be the size it.
I only never notice it if i'm listening late at night when everything else is silent. Otherwise its not a problem. Call me an old fart too, but i complain about all devices these days that they dont go quiet enough! Volume level 1 is too loud lol!
havent noticed any sounds other than the music but i have noticed that most tracks skip at the end of the track. Anyone else noticed this?

Must agree on te vol 1 setting, it's almost my old 3310 loud setting lol
i will do some more testing, is there a track you could suggest that you have heard this most ? and at what volume.
Not had any trouble with the tracks skipping ether. thought it did a good job of blending together tbh.
I've found that when playing video files, quiet moments tend to just be muted.
For example in a film if the scene is busy and noisy it's fine but then if it were to cut to a scene where two people are quietly talking i get no sound. It's almost like it's noise cancelling.
If i turn the volume up there is no problem.
So I've got my surround for 1 week, and I notice an issue when I am using my headphone. If my wifi is on and I connect my headphone to the device, I hear a
fire cracker sound if I'm not playing any music or videos. It is not obvious which you can only notice it while you are in a really quiet place. So my question is, is it the problem with the surround or the window phone 7. The thing is that if I played music under wifi is on, the fire cracker disappears. Or if I turned the wifi off, it disappears. Has anyone has this cracker sound issue with wifi on? It seems like the antenna has affects the audio jacks or something. But if that is so, why the sound disappear while I'm listen to music??
Normally, when you plug headphones into anything, some noise is produced, just the metal rubbing on metal or w/e, (I'm sure the electrical engineers can explain it to the electrons), but this is a noise I've heard on many devices throughout my electronic experience. I've never seen it as a problem. It seems normal on my Surround, and I tried with WiFi on, off, connected, unconnected, music on, music off, and any other combo I could think of. All of the noises were the same, none louder than the others.
I'm not sure if that is helpful to you, but mine did not change at all.
I understand that. It's just I have never experience a cracker sound like this noticeable. So when u compare the noise to other devices, is it the same?
It sounds like nothing out of the ordinary to me, but you may want some more opinions.
ehi everyone!
i just used for the first time my optimus 7 to hear some music with my headphones and i listen a strange noise under the music... it's not heavy but it disturb me.
i tried with other headphnes and the problem is still here...
any suggestion???
I've got the same problem... it's annoying
Yeah the audio out of the Opt7 is not great:
-Constant background noise (audible when pausing before the output is shut off)
-Sometimes audible Beep-Beep-Beep-GSM-noises when on a GPRS connection (not on 3G,H)
Well, as long as I'm on a 3G connection and volume>2 it is OK but the signal quality of say my PSP is much better...
When I turn off Data, it seems to remedy the noise, but yes, it is defintely there, a hiss, (although not noticable with low quality (>$50) headphones. Put on a pair of shure SE425 and you can clearly hear it...
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
Hey there.
Having a weird issue with my new S8. Without "UHQ Upscaler" enabled, the sound coming out of the headphone jack is bloody awful. It always has a staticy overlay, and sounds like it is coming through a tunnel or something. Even with the Upscaler enabled, I still hear this sound if Bixby is used while the phone is plugged into a jack, or from a few apps that produce audio, such as Google Assistant, Maps, and a few games.
Anybody know a fix for this? I tried to search XDA, but haven't seen anything specifically around this. Few threads on some other communities, but nothing that seems to offer a permanent solution Thanks for any help!
Maybe some effect is turned on. In the settings where you can set the uhq upscaler, there are some effects.
I had this issue too and after a search in sound settings I found the concert hall effect turned on.
I can confirm the poor and dinky sound quality. I'm a little confused und shocked how Samsung can desigend a current top phone with these audio quality.
I use my S8 with an high end AKG headphone. The sound is far too quiet very dull and imbalanced.
Also adapt sound and UHQ upscaler dont deliver a reasonable sound quality
I think the only way is to root the phone and install Viper4Andriod.
My previous phone (LG G4) is known for the sad sound quality but with Viper4Android the sound was much more better the the S8.

One of the first things I checked. Thing is, the muted sound + loud white-noise sound is ever-present if I disable UHQ upscaler, which concerns me. The only fix for the base sound issue I could find was to turn on UHQ upscaler, but this doesn't seem to work on ALL sound on the device, meaning some things default back to that white noisy sound
Not a HUGE issue, but very obnoxious. If it means anything to anybody, I am using an unlocked Snapdragon S8. I have had this issue since I got it out of the box, so it can be confirmed the issue isn't due to a change I made or an installation I did. It is apparently not an isolated issue, and UHQ fixes it in about 90% of cases, so I suspect the issue isn't in the hardware, either

Anonaru said it's not a HUGE issue, but it is with me. A PHONE, which is an AUDIO DEVICE, shout NOT make annoying noise. Samsung brags about all these features and they can't even make the audio work. That's like an airline telling you, well our airplane can't fly but we have a new seat recliner feature!

Its just the reality of audio in a phone, but this only happens only with In Ear earphones. They are more sensitive to the various electrical interferences coming from the various components of your phone. Use full size headphones and you won't hear any interference.
