I was playing music in my car via aux out using stock music player and all was going well...then my mother wanted to check email while I was driving....when she picked up, voice dialing started wdf? Screen was off too lol...then I resumed music and gave her the phone back. Then the music started skipping music after playing a song for 1 sec (went through abollbout 7 songs in 10 seconds.) Then music player stopped and wouldn't let me resume so I was like what the eff. Then, someone called and I answered...i could hear them but they couldn't hear me until I unplugged my aux out. This wasn't an issue with any of my previous phones...oh and how the hell do you disable longpress search for voice dialing? Ffs

This happened to me this morning. Had it in my pocket walking to the bus and the music stops. I go unlock and it see that the voice search thing activated. I just held it in my hand and it was fine. Didnt happen again after that though.

I just had two random reboots, just looking through xda. My keyboard has been a major issue. I grey random locks on my phone. I think I got a dud right along with you. But I will be going back to the store I purchased it from for a new one. I don't expect it to be flawless but I do expect it to work when I choose to use it.

If I exchange mine for a functional one does that count my one time switch? (If I decided to not keep the 3d and would it renew my 30 trial)?
P.s. I bought mine as upgrade from Bestbuy.

OP simple answer.
The cap buttons are over sensitive, she hit the search key. I can actually wear gloves and use the screen on this phone. I've not had any other phone I could do that with.

That was the first problem but then the music player kept skipping songs and I had to reboot to fix the widget (it only had pause, wouldnt switch to play)

It has to do with the Jack. The jack supports in line remotes, and if the input touches one of those connections, it changes the song. Another thread on this had an app that would fix it.

I've had the same problem but with other programs. I fun subsonic and occasionally more than once google music starts playing music as well
I've cleared the app cache and a few other things but it kept happening. so I un- installed google music and do far it hasn't happened but it did happen with the stock music program before I took the updates.
worth mentioning as well use that some times the screen turns itself on when I'm playing music, and when I turn the phone on sometimes its trying to total someone! good thing it asks me if I want to use google voice to make the call!

What the heck is in line remote?? I had it plugged up to my car stereo. Does that mean I can change the song through my stereo buttons or did I misunderstand you? P.S. How do I use my phone as a phone through my car stereos (via aux cable)?
Pretty sure issues like this aren't related to your actual device. Way to many people return their phone for issues that are not directly related to the device and can happen on every single one of them.
Just because it doesn't happen to everyone doesn't mean it can't. If someone's phone locks up a few times or reboots, it doesn't mean you have a defective phone. It usually has something to do with software and items that are running or processes that are taking place at that exact time to cause the issue. It is not caused because you have a defective phone.
Sure, maybe some complaints can be related to the actual device but I am betting most are not and people just over react and think they have a defective device.
I think the Evo 3d will need a few more updates to really make it all around stable.
This is my problem, I uploaded a vid about it...
EDIT: I think my Aux output is bad...tried 3 different male to male aux cables and all produced the same bugs.
EDIT2: Just noticed this doesn't happen with Pandora, only the stock music app...wth?! lol!
EDIT3: Noticed that I have a little headset with microphone icon at the time I did this, could that be the cause?
EDIT4: Got yet another app running in the background. Installed Headset blocker. Hope this one works and autostarts upon reboot.
Mine has this problem as well, but it is only with certain speaker connections (the computer speakers at my work make the thing search, then skip, then they call my brother.) I am going to try that program out, it looks to me like the connector is hitting something inside the phone causing the thing to freak out.
This happened to me also, only happens when I plug headphones or anything in the headset jack...my evo 3d goes insanely nuts.

Hi all,
I've owned the note since day 1. I've had it replaced because of a charger issue and horrible battery. This new one is a keeper.
However, I just noticed this issue which I don't know if it is normal or what.
When you plug an earphone/headphones to the note, not all sounds are routed to the earphones/headset.
A few examples are, when I'm plugged in then somebody text, call, lock/unlock screen, etc it will sound off both the speaker of the note and the earphones.
It will only exclusively play sound to the earphones when watching videos like in MX player, Doubletwist, watching flash videos in the browser, etc. If it is notifications, it plays on both.
Of course when your on silent mode, you won't hear ringing from the earphones (just beeps).
I actually rooted it (mashi method only using system level root) and I used Titanium backup to freeze some pre-installed apps. Could that be it?
Is this normal behavior?
Thanks
Sorry for the early bump but is anyone having this issue?
This is my 14th day and according to Best Buy I only have 14-days to return it or exchange it. Even though they recently change it to 30 days .. for some reason I'm not covered with the 30 days return policy. I only have 1 1/2 hours before Best Buy closes tonight.
Thanks.
EDIT: I've used iPhone earphones (with mic), Sony Headphones, I've used 3 other earphones .. they all display the same image.
Just try this to be easier. Plug an earphone to your Note .. then call it. If it rings from the speakers while the earphones are connected, that's what I'm talking about. Could anyone please try this .. please.
Just tried your test. Mine does the same thing. Rings both the earphones and external speaker.
I also have the same issue you noted where I get notification sounds on the external speaker. This happens, for example, when playing music. It's even more annoying because it doesn't play it through both, it ONLY plays the notification sound through the external, so if you're listening to earbuds with noise cancelling, you don't even hear it, you just hear a break in the sound.
For better or worse, I believe this is normal operation for these phones with this revision of software. I'm not sure if samsung and/or AT&T do incremental updates to fix little bugs like this? I'm new to android, so I don't know for sure, but I believe that we are pretty much on our own for having this sort of thing fixed. An update *might* eventually fix it (ie the infamous ICS update that we don't know when AT&T will actually get out to us), but until then, my understanding is that we just have to hope that a dev will try to address it. This is versus apple, where updates come out pretty frequently, and a bug this major would certainly be addressed very quickly.
That is just sad. Now I have to put it in silent mode even when earphones are plugged in
I hope Samsung fixes this.
That's stupid. I haven't seen any other reports of this. You have stock ATT ROM, right? Did you call ATT to ask them about it? Could be a "feature" of the Note.
Sad but true. Mine does the same thing. Hadn't noticed it because I haven't used headphones with it yet.
I wonder if this is the reason they didn't put a pair of earbuds in the box like they do with most of their other phones.
just an update. I went to best buy just now and they have 4 samples on the floor. I tried it it on all phones and it works fine. Mine was the only phone having this issue. so I called a rep and showed it to him and he said to bring the receipt tomorrow for replacement. wow this will be my 3rd phone replacement (1St one was a charger issue). and yes i have used stock. I used it on rooted,even saurom. all displays the issue.

I'm having the same problem. I am completely stock never rooted, overclocked or removed/froze any apps.. Funny thing I'm also on my second Note already first one because my keyboard wasn't working.. Anyone else having this issue with headphones?
If you do get a new replacement, please post back here once you've set it up and let us know if it does or does not still have this issue. I find it kind of hard to believe that this type of issue would be one that varies from phone to phone. Seems like a hardware or software bug that should be consistent from phone to phone. If it is different, it seems far more likely that there is some setting or application that some of us have changed (or not changed) that is causing the difference.
I thought I had a "good one" so far, and to be honest, reading about a lot of the other problems that people have (that I don't), I'm kind of scared to go get a new one, as I feel as though I might be trading this issue for a different one (or spending a lot of time trading phones in and out).
Update
So I just got off the phone with AT&T and they ran me through the whole factory reset bs and of course that didn't fix the problem.. But the strange thing is that the guy I spoke to said that my phone needed a software update and that I would get it in the next 24 to 48hrs. I'm attaching a screen shot of my about phone because I didn't know that this phone had a software update available. I took this screen shot soon as I hung up the phone with AT&T. I will report back on Wednesday when they said they would call me back to see if the phone is working correctly.. Let me know if you're running different software than me?? (if you don't mind)
ill post an update tomorrow. I wont leave until I got a good one.
again for those who are curious and check if it happens to your phone.
1) make sure it is not on silent mode
2) connect an earphone/headphone to the note
3) call the phone
if it rings out loud. welcome to the club

has any one experienced problems while talking on the phone? it doesn't always happen but the other person on the line stops hearing me until I move the phone a little away from my face and they can start hearing me again. Its very annoying and weird, maybe it has to do something with the senor? I am on stock but rooted, I tried another rom and same issues.
Even though the mic placement is uite traditional for today's mordendo phones, I do find the GS3 is a bit more sensitive than others. Had some people complain about hearing me when on speakerphone and when I had it on my face.

I have been having the same problem. I'll be talking and for some reason the person on the other end will stop hearing me. So far, they have hung up before I could figure out how to fix the problem.
It only happens when I have the phone next to my face and it doesn't happen with every call. It also has NEVER happened when I use my bluetooth headset.
I do not have a screen protector on and my phone is stock. Sprint is the carrier I am using. I did not have this problem on any other phone I have owned.
Anyone have suggestions to keep this from happening?

If your microphone stopped working immediately after the OTA, I'd call Verizon and have someone look at it and replace it.
If your microphone worked for a little while after the OTA, chances are your microphone just decided to give out.
Either way, I'd look to get it replaced. If its stock and unrooted, there's absolutely no reason for the microphone giving out to be your fault unless it has possible water damage.
Try checking the headphone jack with a bright light for something stuck down in the headphone jack.
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda premium
RBarnett, thanks for the reply. The phone was working properly (my voice out) worked fine before the OTA update. No water damage. Just too much of a coincidence for the phone microphone to stop working immediately after the OTA, to my way of thinking. Sounds like good advice to have Verizon check it out.
No mic on Thunderbolt after ICS and app installs
Exact same issue here.
I updated my stock, undamaged, 2 year old, Verizon HTC Thunderbolt to Ice Cream Sandwich(ICS) last Tuesday evening. That evening I found out my phone mic was not working. Callers could not hear me, but all else was fine. Speaker phone did work. Love the Bolt and ICS looks and feels great.
I went to the local Verizon store and the guy did some online research and found no known or reported issues. He said that it must be coincidental that the mic stopped working after the ICS update. He cleaned the mic area and the headphone jack, assuming crud may have been disabling the mic. Nothing seemed to fix the problem.
They ordered a replacement under warranty and it arrived the next day. I activated it and proceeded to reload all my apps, again assuming that the mic issue must be coincidental. After many hours tweaking the phone to my needs and setting up all apps I found that the mic did not work.
Thursday I took both to the Verizon store and another rep played with it and could not find the cause. Only options were to upgrade, or try another replacement. I had no reason to replace my previously fully functioning Bolt. They ordered a second refurb that arrived yesterday. Before downloading any apps I was only going to activate it and make sure the mic worked. I never got that far. The second refurb had a malfunctioning screen that was unacceptable to me.
So off to the store I went with three Bolts.
They agreed the 2nd one should never have been sent out with the poor screen.
This time I talked with a female rep. She actually just upgraded from a Thunderbolt and was well versed. We decided to wipe the first refurb back to factory and the mic now was working. I took it home, started downloading my apps and after a few hours and nearly done I found the phone mic to be inoperable again. The speaker mic worked fine.
Assuming an app was disabling my phone mic I wiped it back to factory and reactivated. I checked and the mic is now working again. I assume one of my apps is conflicting with the mic mute. I have been downloading a few apps at a time and the mic is still working. Only about 15% of the previously downloaded apps are now on my Bolt. I just don’t know what app, or when my mic may go mute.
Long, ongoing story, but I thought I would post to see if anyone has any ideas, or similar issues after ICS update. Thanks in advance.

By "new replacement" you mean a new Thunderbolt, or replacement by a different phone? Probably be a frickin Apple knowing my bad luck...lol
I was actually surprised they updated the Bolt considering you can't even get accessories at a Verizon store any longer. And supplies are limited online.

Hey, a big THANKS, for that detailed reply! I guess misery loves company! Yep, that is the problem. The only work around I've found is to use head phones or ear buds. But you can't just plug in buds or phones and expect them to work for phone calls. They have to have a built in mic. Mine is a Dynex Adapter. It has the mic and a button switch for switching to a call if you're listening to music or radio. The adapter is about 5" long and costs about $10 as I recall. At least that makes the phone usable again until a better solution comes along.
Like you, I thought I might have a rogue app and started removing any app with an audio or sound component. So far no luck. Please let me know if you come across a solution and I'll do the same. Thanks again for posting.

I have read elsewhere about a similar issue. In that post it mentioned that once you get the rogue mic mute the only fix is a factory wipe. I have had to wipe phones 5 times since ICS update last Tuesday. I tried uninstalling app by app but never got the mic back without a wipe. I need a phone, more than I need all the apps. I do miss some but am adding them back slowly.
Same here. They are sending me a replacement and we'll see what happens. I'm personally hoping this 2nd one has the same issue and just seeing if I can upgrade mine to another phone. >.>
Being a total dumb ass concerning programming phones, this problem appears to be software rather than hardware related. Could a developer create a small app to simply reset or clear the mic status? I'm probably oversimplifying, but it looks like an HTC or Verizon developer could fix this problem in a matter of minutes. Rendering a fine phone useless after an OS update seems kind of ridiculous, imo. Any suggestions or thoughts?
So far none of the rooted users that didnt take the ota but rather used the flash able haven't reported this issue. It is possible that its a combination of hardware and software where the new software didn't fill the gap for your hardware. It is well known that no two thunderbolts are alike and they all react differently to the software.

Good point Disconnectie. Something, whether hardware or software, rendered my perfectly working Tbolt, basically unusable after the OTA. I wonder now if the Emergency Call function is working? Don't think I'll make an emergency call to test.
Is anyone else having an issue when streaming music via Bluetooth? It sounds like static/crackling, kinda like the audio is being clipped at the higher end.
I just got the phone on Monday so I have time to try and exchange it if it could be a bad phone. Just not sure if it is a common issue or not.

It could also be your Bluetooth device. try yhe device with other phones and see if the static persists. make sure you test 1 to 3 songs across the devices and make sure the songs are the same.

I too came from a V10. my V10 had plenty of problems, my Beats Solo 2 wireless would crack a lot, as well as my Jaybirds x2. once I got my G6 the only cracking I got was when I stepped out of rage. anyways I'm just saying to test things out with multiple devices, multiple Bluetooth devices would be ideal as well. don't just quickly assume it's not something. doesn't matter if it's a car or not tech is tech and some of it may be defected.

I can try other things but so far it does the exact same thing in my car and my wife's car. I am fairly certain it is related to the phone.

Just tried it with one of my Bluetooth speakers and I get the same issue. It almost seems like the more stuff connected to Bluetooth the worse it is.
So far it seems like it isn't as bad when I am not wearing my smart watch. I might try it with my fit bit disconnected too to test that theory.

I haven't had any issues with BT on my VS988.
So i just exchanged the phone for a new oneand have the same issue. It is definitely something related to the phoneand how it handles bluetooth because my V10 with the same apps and devices doesn't have this issue.

I had the same problem and exchanged phones –after adding things Lil by Lil I had the same issue and narrowed it down to my Samsung smart watch - when I disabled the watch or the gear software it would stream fine – after a lil while with phone I'm realizing it is VERY VERY VERY BUGGY and VERY VERY VERY SLOW and Verizon's service is too

Yea, it somehow seems related to my watch too (Huawei), but I am not sure if it is the watch or just the fact that it is always using the Bluetooth as well.

My jaybirds won't stay connected, haven't tested on another phone, but have a ton of other devices and G6 has been solid .. Google search led me to believe it was hardware issue with my out of warranty jaybirds ... I'd get an RMA or new replacement dude

yeah my Jaybirds do that too. what I do is ON the G6 I hold volume down and power to get me to that recovery page or what it is called and then all I do is wipe cache, it helps me. not sure if it will help you.

This is the second phone that does the exact same thing so I don't think another phone will solve the issue. The only thing I haven't done is a factory reset and install one so at a time.

It does kinda suck, but I have a feeling it has to do with Android Wear app. So I think at some point I am going to do a factory reset and only install apps that don't use Bluetooth at all and then keep installing one at a time to see if I can narrow it down.

Definitely share your results. I sold my Nexus 6p or I would do some more testing as well.
I'm pretty sure it's a bug with the phone's bluetooth. It happens to me when connected to my Android Wear watch. If I turn off my watch, the crackling stops.
Yea, I am pretty positive it is Android Wear/Smart Watch related. I unpaired my watch from my phone and uninstalled Android Wear and the issue seems gone.
Weird.
EDIT: Nevermind, it's still there, it was better for a while.

LG & Verizon (SMH)
The Bluetooth is TERIBLE on these phones - The BLE doesn't work and too many devices paired (especially smart watches) messing up streaming something Awful. There are MANY software bugs especially using google music and many other programs/apps - the longer you use the phone to more the bugs will standout, but in LG's defense they have issued a software update, but with Verizon there's Really No Telling when will get it (if we get it)

How do you know LG issued an update? What's weird is my old V10 didn't have this issue, I wonder if it is Nougat related.
