Galaxy S8 Clicking noise coming from earpiece - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

I recently started to hear faint clicking/ticking noises coming from the earpiece while having phone calls on my S8 (I heard those noises in the past but I thought they were caused by the other person on the call).
I downloaded an app called "Earpiece" (that lets you listen to music trough the earpiece instead of the speakers) and the ticking noises persist (even if I'm not having a phone call).
What's even weirder than that, I actually discovered that the earpiece makes those noises all the time (even when I'm not listening to anything and I'm not having a phone call), but they are not that loud.
I found that if I turn Airplane Mode on (without Wifi enabled), the noises stop. To give you some concrete examples:
- Connected to network( + WiFi on): Earpiece makes those noises at all times.
- Airplane Mode on + Wifi on: Earpiece makes noises at all times.
- Airplane Mode on + WiFi off: Earpiece doesn't make any noises. If I listen to offline music trough the earpiece (using "Earpiece" app) there are also no clicking noises.
* Those clicking noises don't have a constant rythm (they sometimes stop for a second or two).
*If I press my ear to the earpiece a bit, I can hear them very very well.
What do you think might cause this?
Thanks.

I am also suffering from a similar issue.
I haven't much noticed if it is there with wifi on or off etc, but it is really irritating.
Samsung says if you can prove we can refund, but it is really difficult to prove. I have noticed that when I press the phone hard on my ears the noise diminishes but doesn't go away.
is your problem solved, please share an update or any other please suggest a workaround.
Thanks

even i am facing same issue after updating to 8.0 beta version

Strange clicking from my Samsung S8+.
I have been hearing a strange clicking sound from my smartphone. Not being used or on charger, it makes this clicking sound that is very quiet but others do hear it. Is there an app that would cause this?

Having same issue seems to be the WiFi makes faint clicking noises while it's transferring data back and to anyone resolved the problem. Only an issue while I am on the phone

I have this issue as well- but it is so quiet you can't hear it unless the room your in in pretty silent

If you open the camera app and listen to the call speaker it gets alot worse. Think it's the WiFi mechanism vibrating against the outo focus mechanism of the camera

Clicking loudspeaker (and noise) ?

Has anyone noticed this: Everytime time the (back) speaker starts playing, you can hear a clicking noise. And when you stop playing music, sounds, etc. you can hear it click again (after a few seconds).
It seems like the back speaker gets tuned on and off on demand. When it's on, you can also hear white noise coming out of the speaker. It stops when the speaker gets turned off.
The clicking is quite loud...it's not so loud when using headphones.
It is either really quiet or non-existent on my phone, since i did not notice it yet.
The best way to test this is probably:
- Quiet environment
- Press the red button (in touchflo for example)
- The will cause a short click, the a beep sound is played...and about 3-5 seconds later you will hear the click again.
true it happens on mine too, never noticed it...
i did like you said, and when holding the phone speaker right to my ear i can hear the white noise and the "switch-off" clicking when the speaker is disabled. then the noise is also gone. But to notice this i had to go to another (quiet) room and hold it to my ear, its really quiet. maybe yours is louder...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Strange. I've been using my Jade for over a month now. Don't seem to experience that problem. No funny sound. Or maybe it's too soft for me to realise.
Thanks for your replies.
I recorded this effect by putting the speaker directly to the mic of my laptop.
Listen here: http://pasalacqua.de/tmp/touchclick.mp3
You can hear the click, then the beep, then the white noise, then the click again (to turn off the speaker).
I put the volume of my phone to low. So the click is actually louder than the beep.
I guess there could be bugs worse than this. But it bothers me when the phone plays system sounds like a simple beep. The click is louder than the sound...
I just wonder if it is a general bug or only a bug on my phone.

Noisy earpiece speaker

Since I have had my Touch HD (T8282), the earpiece speaker makes a "scratching" noise randomly during calls. If i press the speaker harder against my ear it can sometime fix the noise.
I dont get the noise from attached headphones or bluetooth headset during a call so its not the incoming signal.
Should i bother getting it warranty repaired? Is anyone else getting this?
you can try to put off the audiobooster.. dunno if that might help or not.
well i also have the same problem, and audio booster isn't the problem, because i used a lot of romz last months and the audio booster is on and off, but noise keeps coming...
the cracking noise, stops at a random time

Mild buzzing sound from the phone speakers

I got my Google Nexus 4 yesterday. Today, when I was making call, I noticed mild buzzing noise from the phone speaker. I thought it was due to the call, but i could hear it even when I was not in a call. I then rebooted the phone, the mild buzzing sound was still there.
The noise does not seem to be there when the phone screen is locked, but as I press the power button, I can hear the noise.
I don't hear the noise in the headphones though. I was not charging the phone when I heard the noise.
Does anybody else have this issue?
I have this too. It's a low buzzing sound coming from the ear speaker even when the phone is on lock.
This is already being discussed here
Closed....follow link above

Annoying Bzzing/clicking sound through headphones

Hey everyone, not sure if I'm the only one getting this issue. I am reading there are people getting a buzzing sound through the earpiece of the phone but I am experiencing a constant clicking buzzing sound through my headphones when the soundcard is engaged.
You can best hear it when there is a song playing but the volume is turned down to 0...
Anyone else getting this?
Solved!
So have figured out that the issue was caused by the proximity sensor being on.
I had the notifier pro app turned on and there is an option to use the proximity sensor on to stop it going on in your pocket...
with that on the clicking happens.
This is probably also the root cause of the calling issues too I guess. Since the proximity sensor is on when you are making calls to turn off the screen when holding the phone next to you face...

Front microphone buggy

Hello everyone, I just got a used LG G6 today. Everything seemed to work fine except a little lag and heating issues until I tried out calling. I noticed that whenever I make a call, the front receiver microphone doesn't work most of the time. Sometimes it does but I either hear static, really low volume, or it just stops working. I have to put the phone on speaker to be able to hear correctly. Does anyone know how to troubleshoot this? I already tried turning off voice suppression and noise clarity. Thanks in advance.
Try this. Adjust the volume in-call to make it louder. See if it makes a difference.
