I just noticed a little wierd thing on the s3. When I have the headphones plugged in and I am not playing anything(no audio), everytime I hit one of the capacitive keys there's a hissing sound which lasts for 4-5 seconds. Can anyone confirm this? And why does the phone produce a "running fan" like noise when a capacitive key is used?
It's very annoying to use the phone with the headphones plugged in because of this noise.

How is it that only my s3 shows this behaviour? It's something you will notice when you are in a silent surrounding. I am still wondering what the capacitive keys have to do with this noise.

Its because the SIII is programmed to turn on your sound when a key is hit... this happens and goes away after a few seconds as aforementioned... I have this issue on my SII Epic Touch some times.
WiMaxed away from my Samsung® Galaxy™ SII Epic™ 4G Touch™ SPH-D710 running the CyanogenMod9™ Alpha 5-Pre1 with the MotoInspried Theme. (I'm a sucker for a MotoUI but like this phone better.)
Awaiting my upgrade for the Sprint® Samsung® Galaxy™ S III SPH-L710 because it's the SIII and it's on an unlimited data network.
Sounds like it's interference caused by poor shielding. The Note suffered horribly from this. I was hoping Samsung had fixed this issue, but maybe they didn't. My AT&T One X is super quiet and has no interference at all. Hopefully the LTE variant of the S3 will be better.

Each of the 4 HTC One Xs (International version) I had a couple of weeks ago had dreadful shielding issues (among many other problems) when plugged in for charging. I can't say I've seen the aforementioned interference on my S3 though.
h3llboy911, does this happen with all pairs of headphones you've tried, and does it get worse when it's plugged in to charge?

Galaxy s3 hissing sound
I have exactly the same issue on my galaxy s3.
It is most noticeable in a silent room with headphones in. The hissing occurs even if you mute all sound and you touch a key, a widget, capacitive key etc.... You can even hear the hissing when you play music on low.
Is it a hardware problem or a software problem?
can confirm i've noticed this also
Confirmed with LTE version (i747) - Happens even in tinfoil with all radios off, guessing when this happens its tracking through the headphones.
With 80 ohm headphones its MUCH less noticeable.

Mine thoes this as well! I don't know whether this is normal, or a HW or SW problem...
You can even hear the same sound when not listening to any music and when you're earphones are UNplugged! Just push a capacitive button and listen to your speaker; exactly the same noise!

It seems to be caused whenever something accesses the audio. Going to settings>sound and unchecking touch sounds seems to reduce this happening for me.

Just noticed an odd very light whirring noise from my headphones when they are plugged into the Evo 3d and the screen is updating.
For example when i turn the screen on and the weather animation on my lock-screen runs, it makes the whirring noise, but when I am on a static home screen it is quiet, but then if i swipe to move to the next screen i hear the light noise again. Same if click on the launcher button to open the app drawer, or click on the phone button on the screen and it opens the dialer.
Wondering if this is a common issue/bug, or if I have a defective unit i need to exchange.
The headphones work perfectly fine in my old phone so it isn't the headphones.

I had headphones on for about 40 minutes yesterday morning and didn't notice anything like that at all. Have you tried a different set of headphones?....just to pinpoint in fact that it's a problem with your phone.
I see what you are talking about. The noise is really faint, but I'd say not to worry about it since it may be software related. When browsing apps and what not the sound is gone.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Damn......just put my headphones on again and still nothing like that. Either my phone's not afflicted or my ears are worse then I thought after to many years working in a factory.
I can hear it too, when I scroll I can clearly hear it. This isn't anything new, I've noticed this sort of thing from other devices. Certain laptops will make a tiny squeal when rapidly scrolling something on the screen with the volume jacked up. We're probably hearing added EMI from the increase in CPU activity. Not much you can do about it. :/
The original Evo used to always make this annoying warbling noise during silence. At times it honestly sounded like faint music almost, it was that pronounced.

Yep, that's a fact of life, when it comes to electronic devices. When it puts out enough power, it'll interfere with the headphones (Which, if you think about it, headphones are just a giant magnifier for electronic pulses. Makes sense)
If you don't believe me, hook up an aux cable to your car stereo, and pinch the end. It'll make a buzzing noise. You're electrically charged enough to play music!
Same thing for the internals of your phone. Doesn't take much. Heck, you could probably set your phone next to an MP3 player that you have your headphones plugged into, and still get some interference.
Thanks for confirming that you can hear it too.
I know what you all are saying about electronics having some EMI, but i went back and compared it to my original Evo, and a friend's iPhone 3GS, and neither of the two gave any background noise because the screen was changing/scrolling etc.
Gotta decide if I want to return it. I love the phone's speed, features etc., and this is definitely a minor thing I am bringing up, but it just bugs me a little.
I also have this noise problem, noticed it right away. I also have a slight cracking sound from the speaker when a loud sound plays. It's odd because normally other devices are able to be placed at max volume without hearing distortion. I'm not ready to return it yet, my roomate got one this morning, and I want to see if his does the same.
My Evo did the same thing, especially worse when I had it plugged in.
Same effect on my phone. I just noticed
last night and thought I was hearing things.
I noticed this right away on my 3D. I never noticed any similar sound on my EVO 4G.
Thankfully, it seems to disappear when I am not interacting with the phone. Therefore, it's not a huge issue for me.
When using earphones (of any kind) I hear a LOT of static, but only when on the internet. I had this issue since launch, but it mostly died down after the first update, but now it is back and worse. It doesn't happen if I'm listening to downloaded music. I can adjust the level of static when turning it in its port, and when there is nothing playing I can hear static when I wiggle it around. Here is the really odd thing...when I was doing this wiggling, there was nothing playing, I pulled the jack out just slightly and pushed it back in.As soon as I pushed it back in the voice dialer pops up. It did this each and every time. Does this sound like there is something wrong in the grounding? Why does this static only happen when streaming? It is worse when I have my tpu case off. There is absolutely nothing else wrong with my phone, so I don't want to be trading it in over this. I bought it at best buy, but would sprint still service it? Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!

Few factors involved, but definitely an interesting issue. I haven't seen any other hardware posts like this, but maybe I missed them.
Either way, I would put the software on the phone back to 100% stock ROM/kernel. If the issue still persists, which it sounds as if it will, then I would look into taking it to a Sprint store.
By restoring the device to 100% stock software, the idea is that this will eliminate any potential software issue as this shouldn't occur on a stock device. If the issue still occurs on a completely stock software device, then the issue has a higher probability of being hardware related.
As long as the issue always occurs, it should be simple for a Sprint tech to confirm the issue. Unfortunately, I have a feeling they might just swap the phone out rather than actually look into resolving the issue. Generally, my experience has been that Sprint is pretty helpful when it comes to hardware issues with a device.
Of course, their service might depend on where you purchased it as well as the type of protection plan you have on the device. Maybe somebody who works as a Sprint tech or who has been in for service recently can chime in on their experience.
Hope that helps!
Bought mine at bb and sprint serviced your fine

I am not rooted. Stock only. It started off this way on launch day, got better after the first ota then got worse after yesterday's ota. I bought it at best buy and have their insurance and they would just swap it out. However, I would likely get a refurb and having had to go through 4 refurbs with my 3D last year, I don't really want the hassle, especially since this phone is behaving in every other way. Good to know that sprint will still service it. The store in my area serviced each of my 4 3D's before they would issue another phone, so maybe I'll get lucky.

I just swapped my S-off hboot 1.2 for this PoS "unsoffable" hboot 1.15 today due to a similiar case. I had the same issue with static and it seems that no matter what i get there seems to be some type of interference and static with some white noise when playing music. The new phone has substantially less interference but it still slightly remains there. I have used both my Shure SE535's and Westone 4R's and am having the same issue. It seems to be that cheap crappy headsets are fine playing music but when and if you want good quality IEM then your screwed with interference.
Here is the upshot. Factory reset my phone thinking it was a software issue cuz no static when listening to anything on my SD card. That didn't work. Took it into sprint and of course, it sounded perfect. He suggested it could be that my wifi is overloaded and he was right. Sounds perfect when streaming off 3G. Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

Out of curiosity, are you listening to music while charging? I figure the culprit on my end its the charger being plugged in gives off a static feed to my headset which is only an inch away from the charger port. If this isn't the case, carry on.

I'm having the same issue, every four or five seconds when playing music I hear a weird static sound. This happens on Wi-Fi, charging, not charging and 3g. When I browse the internet I do hear more prominent static sound than when I'm just listening to music on sd card. I hope this issue gets resolved in a software update

Yup radios and or charging can cause some bad interference with the headphone jack, being an all metal unibody frame can screw with the shielding
I'm jumping so many threads today lol
Thanks for posting about the wifi solution.
I was listening to some mellow jazz guitar music and this static every few seconds started driving me nuts.
While using cheaper earphones and louder music, it's not that much of a problem but for nice crisp sound and high quality IEMs the static can be very annoying. I had my wifi turned on for location services inside a building. As soon as I turned it off, no more periodic static.
Is there any known solution to this static while using wifi & headphones problem?
I just got this device and this is one of the first things I noticed. I came from a HTC Rezound and the headphones had absolutely 0 static. My Nexus 10, however, had static only while plugged in to charger.
the static seems to happen whenever anything loads on wifi, which for me is a problem because I stream videos over a local wifi router [raspberry pi & hard drive with Apache2 as a local http media server]. the static is kinda bugging me, so if anybody has any idea how to fix it, please let us know!
thanks

No I haven't experimented a whole lot, but I've tried a few of my videos and all of them have static. it ranges from slight to slightly severe, as it's loading the whole video off Wifi and that's apparently what causes the static. [with wifi off,play local music, I don't recall hearing static.]
I tried getting a wire and holding one end and putting the other to the headphone ground, but no luck
I've been using a Note 2 demo unit for the past two days and have noticed that during a call, and the other person is talking, I can hear a "hiss/white nose" around the voice in the earpiece speaker. But when the person isn't talking, there is no hiss. I tried this with several calls (and also 1-800 recordings) and can hear it for every call. I'm not sure what the cause is, but it is quite distracting.
On the GS3 is does have a slight hiss, but it is hardly noticeable. The Droid DNA doesn't have any hiss during calls.
Since I wasn't sure if it could just be an issue just this Note 2, I stopped by a store on my way home today and tried the Note 2 that was on display. It has the same hiss/white noise that I'm getting on my unit.
Has anyone else noticed this on their phone?
I'm thinking it may have to do with the Note 2 using P_Rev 6 and the EVRC-B Vocoder. In my area, the regular EVRC sounds better than EVRC-B, but I don't see any way of changing it on the Note 2. I've changed between the P_Rev and Vocoders on other phones by doing ##PROGRAM, but that command doesn't work on the Note 2.

I had the same problem on my first Note 2. Took back to Verizon and replacement had the same issue. Was going to get a third one but the CSR tried it out and heard the same thing on the 3rd one so just returned it all together. Awesome phone otherwise but I make a lot of calls in a quite office, and with no other sounds it was really annoying.
Here is another thread with same issue http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2021447
Really hope it is just a bad batch. I'm going to give it a few weeks and try another one.
I have the same issue, for what it's worth. However, I'm lucky enough to almost never use my phone to make phone calls so I can live with it.

Does turning off noise reduction (menu during call) address this problem at all?
Just an update on my previous post. I made a couple somewhat long calls today and I did not hear the background noise on the other end the way I had in the early days of the phone. Either it is simply a sporadic issue or it has worked itself out somehow.

I don't think it's a noise reduction issue. With noise reduction on or off, Voicemail calls sounded perfect. No hiss or anything. And I am quite sure of what the hiss sounds like, so I know what to listen for.
I'm wondering if it's just a case of the person you're talking to having a crap phone that has outgoing issues. It doesn't do it when I call my brother on his Note 2, just some other people. Wierd.

So in the past two weeks since I posted about this, I've tried calling a few people and tested it out, and I hear it on every call.
When the person on the other end is quiet, there is no hiss in the Note 2's earpiece speaker. But when the person talks, you can hear the hiss "surround" each word.
I've also tried it with the noise reduction feature on and off, and it doesn't make any difference.
Hi,
Does it happen when using bluetooth?
Thanks,

I hope it is software not hardware. Was thinking about getting a Note II but this flaw would render this phone unusable to me, I use my phone as a phone a lot.
Anyone else hear a faint popping sound after 2 seconds of any sound being played ? It sounds like the sound is from the speakers turning off.
Hey
My HTC One does this as well (started a thread about it just recently), and it was the first thing I noticed on the phone when using sound on the keyboard. Extremely annoying and seems to be a wide spread issue.
wide spread? where else have you heard of this problem? does it happen on the international version as well?
Wondering if i should return mine and get another.
Other users have been reporting the issue as well. I'm located in Canada, and members from the US have said their phones have the same problem.
Yea just read your post on the international forum, seem like a widespread issue. Well I hope its just software

Ah, I can hear it now. In Pandora as well. Personally it's of a low enough volume level on my device where I don't think I'll find it annoying, but I still hope it's software related. Also seems to not be effected by the volume level or beats being on.
My speakers crackle and pop when I watch a music type video on YouTube...I havent been able to replicate it on Netflix,hbogo or regular music app...just on YouTube....of course since I unlocked I can't return for replacement

I was using an HTC one X before using this phone and I did not have this problem at all

yes i also have this problem. unlock the phone and put ur ear upto the speaker. you will hear static and after a second or 2, a pop. almost like speakers are left on longer than requred...weird.
I could verify, I too was getting that popping sound. It's one of the first things I've noticed as soon as I got the phone home. I'm not trying to be overly OCD cause overall I think this phone is perfect and has none of the other flaws and defect mention on this site.
But I thought I should mention I haven't been able to replicate the popping sound.

Popping sound is gone now. I haven't changed anything but it seems to be gone for now. Maybe it needed a reboot or something? Or maybe because my battery is almost dead...

I noticed last night while using my phone in my quiet room that I too have the faint pop 3 seconds after a sound plays. I've found several threads on here and elsewhere relating to the HTC One and other phones having the same issue. It appears to be an OS issue rather than a specific phone or hardware issue. Some have explained that it's the amplifier shutting off after the sound has played. It's not a dealbreaker and definitely a first world problem, but this is my first Android phone after using only iPhones for the last 5 years and it is very annoying when you hear it and cant get rid of it. I also noticed this happens even if I have the sound completely off! Is this a fixable thing by google or a clever patcher?
Wow... I had never noticed this and if it weren't for this thread I probably wouldn't have. After a sound plays, it sounds like there is a sort of "static" (for lack of a better term) that plays until something shuts off. It's like on the old cassette players - the difference between the end of a tape that's playing versus having the player turned off. Weird. I really don't know what to make of it.

It's called beats audio...
It happens without beats and HTC are aware of it.
Mine does it as well, noticed it the first day I had it.
