I just got my S II and when on calls it has a buzzing or static sound during calls at times when the person I am talking to gets louder. I have turned the volume down to almost silent and it still does it. I am using Unnamed ROM, but it did it before the new ROM was loaded. Does anyone know if this is a physical problem with the phone or a software issue, and does anyone know anyway to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
I am using Unnamed v. 1.3.1
Probably just a hardware issue. I haven't seen similar problems from friends or online. If it was a software problem, it would be patched probably.

Thanks! That is what I thought, but I was hoping maybe there was a software issue that could explain it. I guess I will have to return it for a new one.
I just recently noticed that mine has the same exact buzzing issue. Only just noticed a week ago and have had the phone just over 4 weeks. I am planning on returning when I get a chance also.

I called AT & T and worked through all their troubleshooting, which included a factory data reset, and nothing worked. So Amazon is sending a replacement phone out. It must be rare, because I could not find other S II owners mentioning this issue before.

My sgs2 has an aux port that only plays 1 channel of sound and I just noticed this 2 months in. Great....

The paint inside the port is wearing away. The phone itself is perfectly normal. Just for clarification.
I just started getting the same thing on my s2. Just got it 2 months ago.

it's the first one that came up when i googled.
Add me to that list. Mine recently started to buzz and it's fairly annoying. Since I got mine in December of last year, I guess I'll be getting a refurb, sigh.
Let's let old threads die. That was the point.

I'm guessing it's a defective device but thought I would check here first. It's stock and refurbished, just got it yesterday. I tried rooting and flashing other ROM's and radios but nothing fixed it. And yes, I used the helpful guides provided in this forum (and others).

Edit: To clarify, when I make or receive a phone call, I can hear them but they can't hear me.

Sounds like how EVERY Motorola device I've ever owned ended up going. Never heard of that quirk on software so it's probably bum hardware.
Yeah that's what I thought. I also noticed an echo, like I could hear what I say after a short delay. It's going back today.

The echo is a network interface issue. It's happened to me on the last 5 devices I've had; Samsung flip phone of some sort, BlackBerry 8130, BlackBerry 9630, Incredible, Thunderbolt.
So apparently my battery drain/overheat problem has to do with a defective phone
so since its only been 2 weeks since I had this phone. I'm going to try and
exchange it for a new one and see I still have the issues.
I thought it was more of the new radio/firmware problem but from reading from
what some devs says its a bad phone.
cant be your phone .. ive had those issues time to time since installing the new firmware. and ive had this phone since november.

That what I thought, but I'm going to give it a try so I can at least rule it out.

REturn it, I had the same exact issue did a bunch of troubleshooting and none of it helped. It's defective.

Yep, happened to me, it came and went at first and then stayed there all the time. Took the phone to verizon and they replaced it.
That's the beats by dre working its magic. People that listen to hip hop don't hear the hissing and other noises because their eardrums are blown out from all the years of listening to crappy music. My phone does the same thing though. The whole beats thing is a real turn off from the HTC brand and I hope they do away with it.
It's a common problem as far as I can tell. Funny that I stumbled across this thread because the beats things was bothering me today. Can we please stop giving money to rappers and their overpriced bs products.

Same here. Got a replacement and the new phone does not have this problem.

Mine only does this when playing music in the car using the stereo Jack and charging at the same time. Alternator noise.
I've heard about the charging in cars causing problems. Supposedly if you try different chargers or just remove the charger it'll work just fine.
Seems like it only happens with the screen on for me. I can live with it a long as it does not get worse

It's gotten worse for me. I've tried different headphones and it only appears to be the "left" side. Even with the screen turned off it still has the same sound. I also tried turning all the radios off and it does not change. I'll downgrade back to stock Gingerbread (currently running one of the ICS leaks) and if the problem is still there then it's time to take it to VZW. At least it should be covered under warranty,
Happens to me too. But if I wiggle the cord it will go away. At least for now. No telling if that trick will continue to work in the future, but it works for me now.

I have this issue. I've contacted HTC twice already. The most recently last week. Same response, "we have an update coming soon, that will solve the issue" . For those of us running the latest radio/ICS know that their update isn't going to solve the problem. This issue is annoying me more and more lately, it's getting bad. I'm hesitant to return my phone for a warranty just cause I don't want a refurbished, I paid a lot of money for this phone... So, I have to deal with this? I haven't tried deleting beats with root explorer. Maybe I'll try that next.

I've had the phone since it was released and noticed i was missing calls, emails etc. Come to find out my phones speaker is 99% dead.
If i place my ear to it, i can just barely hear sounds and music.
Anyone else experience this? Or am i lone wolf in this, lol

Haven't heard of anyone else having this problem. Sounds like you are indeed alone.
Maybe search the international gnote forum too, but I haven't red anyone experiencing this.
Sorry, good luck

The issue I've had is that my speaker seems to disable itself after I do a Hangout on Google+. Sounds only come though the earpiece afterwards until I power it off and on.
Call Samsung you might be able to get it fixed if you don't have a warranty

I've had my I717D (Telus version) for less than a week and from the first day I got it the external speaker would disable itself, then after a reboot it would work. It started happening more and more until today it doesn't work at all, I'm going back to get a replacement tomorrow.

Ive tried rebooting, factory reset, right now flashing the stock rom back and doing a counter reset. Dont think its going to help.
Apparently a few people with the international version have had this issue.
But att does give a 1 year warranty, so they should take care of it.

My original Rezound i had flashed several different roms to it back and forth and started developing and issue with the vibrator in the phone. It would become sooooo weak that I couldn't even feel it anymore. I thought I messed something up internally, so i flashed it back to stock, and warrantied it. New one is worlds better and has been for many months. I've left it completely stock the whole time, and suddenly the last few weeks i've noticed the same issue. The vibrate function is getting weaker and weaker. Am I the only person experiencing this problem?

Switching the rom had nothing to do with it, sounds like you just got another defective phone.
I figured it wasn't a rom issue, just crappy that i got the same issue again with another phone. Was hoping this was something that I wasn't experiencing alone.
Time to call and see if they'll send me another!

Mine is having the same problem but I'm out of warranty by about two months. Ugh.
