This only occurs when something is plugged int the audio jack, whether a cable, headset, speakers, etc.
When I pause any playing audio/video or when an incoming call pauses it, there is a loud and continuous static noise that won't stop until the media is un-paused or stopped.
I've already got AT&T sending a replacement, but thought I'd throw it out there to see if anyone else has experienced this problem.
Does anyone else have this issue?
Has anyone else noticed static / popping in headphones after listening to music for a while? I generally listen to music for a good chunk of the day. Today I've noticed that after about an hour, I get this interference. It's the same sound as when you have a loose connection.
To fix, I can pause the music, unplug, replug my headphones and that clears it up (which makes me think it's static build up), but it's really getting on my nerves.
I don't have this issue using these headphones on anyother device.
thx

Does anyone else's phone do this: if you record a video in a quiet room and then play it back on full volume, you will hear an audio static noise. My original plus 32GB Aluminum 6P and 2 RMA replacements all have this issue. I haven't seen much reporting about this so I don't know how widespread it is. It's even worse when you cast your google photos onto your TV.
Would be interested in someone with a sound proof room to try this. That would tell us if there is a sound there that the mic picks up but our ears just don't. Not that that fixes the problem...

I've also noticed that when playing back videos on photos.google.com it will not have as loud of a static noise. Maybe this is some software issue.
I've added a poll to see if it's just a select few phones that are doing this. I don't want to keep getting replacements if they are all broken
Static and clicking noise
I have the same issues as you. I recorded a video at night, while in bed, and I caught the issue. I can only heart it when I turn the volume up (~+75%). The reason I did this was because my phone has a buzz/click sound when I plug headphones into the 3.5mm jack. When I pay music or video, I can not hear the static.
Just picked up mine and I also have this issue. Hope it's a SW problem.
Yeah It only happens to my recorded videos after I turn up the volume as well
Still having issues with this. Can even hear static when using a voice recorder
So i just got my phone on march4 and i found out 2 major problems on my s7 edge i did a research and seems to be im not the only one with this issue.
1- Bluetooth doesnt work with any wireless speaker i can connect the phone to the speaker but the music come from the phone speaker.
2- the headphone jack make static and horrible noise when you use a aux cable (for example i use my phone on my car with a aux cable and this static breaking noise is problem) now seems to be that the cord doesnt go all the way in into the headphone jack which is a huge concern to me.
3- when you are trying to listen music or audio trough the 2 option above the volume rocker only change the Ringtone volume not the Music/audio volume another big problem.
4- the stock music player is gone
A last i call samsung regardless the problem and they told me they will escalate the situation and they told to go to my carrier to order a replacement if i want to. so people remember you only have 15 days to return or get a replacement if you have the same problem.
All audio related - Sounds handset specific? Good luck on the replacement

1- i am using it in my car as bt speaker listening to pandora no prob
2- using jack for speakers at work all night pandora no static (change ur aux maybe?)
3- perfectly working for me
4- i dont see it too lol i see google play music and milk music thats it
I can't believe that these issues could be in all S7! In my opinion, it sounds like it's a faulty handset
We ordered two S7's and we are having the same noise issues with headphones. It makes a horrible noise but only when we are in the house. If you go outside, the noise stops. We have tried various things like disconnecting the wifi and nothing works. The headphones worked fine with the S5
1 is an easy fix simply user error, swipe down on the top of the screen and you should be able to select an "Audio Path/Audio Output" and from there select your speakers or headset. As for the static interference, it's hard to say what the source is from but it only occurs (at least for me) in high volume settings. Either get a shielded aux cable or use a portable amp, which is what I've been doing. If you do return it, keep us updated, I'm curious if if the static is "normal" or a defect.
Samsung's music app can be downloaded from "Galaxy Apps"
My husband and I got an s7 edge as well and we hear the same static noise when it's plugged into the aux cable. I've been thinking about taking it to my att store to see if they can help.
Static noise fix!!!
First you want to open up settings and go into sound and vibrations then you want to scroll down to swap sound quality and effects when you have an aux cable plugged in go ahead and switch the HQ upscaler from off to on and that is your solution to fixing static noises with the galaxy s7 and the galaxy S 7 edge. Everyone's welcome
I'm having the static issue as well. As soon as I touch the headphone jack (on the cord) the static is noticeable. The volume also changes.. Tried 3 different headphones, all the same.
Does this happen to anyone else?
Static issue is gone. However using the audio cable plugged into the auxiliary port in my car the audio sounds as if I'm listening through the speaker on the bottom of the phone but it's coming through the car speakers. I've tried every different setting in sounds and equalizer setting and nothing works. Looks like I may be sending 4 phones back and going with the G5
I am also having issues with the Galaxy S7, static noise from internal speaker and headphones. When you restart the phone it goes away and sounds crystal clear. I am not sure what could be causing this to randomly start, and why doesn't it happen constantly and it goes away when restarting the phone? The Samsung tech support agent said maybe an app I have on my phone is causing it. It happens with YouTube and samsung milk music, I'm not sure why only sometimes. Also it's weird that it happens in both samsung headphones and the internal phone speaker, even at low volumes.
Stock music player is not gone. Its in sam market. Taken away to make the software as bloatwarefree as possible. Blutooth through car speaker also works fine here.

Just curious if anyone has tried to use an auxiliary cable and plug it into the auxiliary port on their car stereo? How is your audio coming through?

Mine is having exactly the same issues as yours! The only way to avoid such noise is to use the BLUETOOTH speakers/headphones. What can we do now? Ask samsung to give us a new s7edge to try? Is S7e all like this?
I have a lot of static through car speakers with auxiliary cord
I've now tested 4 different headphones, 3 of them give static at the lightest touch to the headphone jack, 1 works perfectly fine.
I've never had this issue with any phone before and I have no idea what's causing it. UHQ setting doesn't make any difference.. Is it the IP68 rubber inside that's causing it?
I haven't got any of these audio issues, but allow me to list the devices I use:
BT to Mazda 6. No issues.
BT to Sony SBH-80 headphones. No issues.
BT to LG 'sound base' LAP250H. No issues.
Wired to Sennheiser sports headphones. No issues.
What I would say with aux cables, is that the quality of the cable can be the problem. If you've bought a very cheap cable off eBay then you might want to try a better quality cable - see if you're lucky enough to test one from an audio shop but DON'T let them talk you into buying some stupid £20/$20 3.5mm jack.
For bluetooth the phone will need to recognise the device as being able to play audio. There's two bluetooth outputs detected by my Mazda; I can either have the car take audio only, phone only or audio+phone. Now obviously a bluetooth speaker should default to taking audio, but I wonder if the speaker itself is at fault?

I've tried both of our Galaxy S7 Edge and S7's and different types of audio cables and with every one of them there is a problem with poor volume level where I can max the volume on both the car stereo and the phone and there's no bass. I've even taken them to Best buy and tried them on aftermarket radios and produce the same results. The samsung rep gave me the 800 number to Samsung.
I want to know if it's a hardware or software issue.
Hello!
Just got my Essential Phone and I'm loving most of it so far. Unfortunately though, I'm having a problem with the DAC Dongle that came in the box. In combination with my Shure SE215 earbuds I get some terrible static noise whenever I start playing media from any app (doesn't matter if it's Video or only Audio). As soon as playback stops everything is totally quiet again with absolutely zero noise. Though it pops back in for a few seconds from time to time when I'm not listening to anything.
This is extremely annoying, especially when listening to really dynamic acoustic stuff on youtube or with movies, that tend to have quiet moments, as there are parts when the noise is louder than the stuff you're listening to.
Is there anyone with the same problem out here? Or could it be that I've gotten a bad adapter and getting the Pixel one might be a fix?
Thanks in advance!

I had 2 Essential phones and have not noticed static noise while playing anything. This you update the adapter? When you plug it in, there is a notification in the status bar telling you about the update. If you haven't updated, then try it, possible that the update fixes static noise. When I tried 2 of the phones, I update the adapter before listening to anything, so can't really confirm if update really fixes anything or you have a bad unit.
I do know that Google adapter works with Essential phone, although Essential adapter seems to be a bit louder.

I can hear the noise for certain songs when the song is ending or at a "quiet" part of the song. Not for all songs. A bit weird.

Yeah, did the update the first time I plugged it in. I'll try it with a different pair of earbuds maybe, to see if that makes a different.
As for the replacement dongle mentioned in another post. Thats interesting. As I live in Germany though, that would probably be a bit complicated getting a hold of one directly, if you can somehow get them separately from essential.
Maybe I'll just order a Pixel dongle to see if that changes anything. Should at least work as I've read in a few other posts.

Hi Lauritz,
I'm experiencing exactly the same. Did you solve the issue finally? I realised that the only time I don't hear any static noise is when listening through HF Player from Onkyo. For any other app like Google Music, Spotify, Foobar I stil hear that terrible static noise.
Thanks for any info.

Did the issue get resolved with the new dongle?
