Sound delay on other devices using earbuds? - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Hello all, I love the ear buds that came with the s3 but when I use them on any other device like my laptop, I get a 2 -3 second delay on the sound when ever I start something up like a youtube video. Anyone else getting this delay, or is it just me?

Just you.

Ear buds

I'm having a problem hearing music using ear Buds / headphones and was wondering if anyone else was having this issue on titan. The sound goes real dull almost like non-stereo and I have to hold where the 3.5 mm jack is and wiggle the earbuds to get a clear sound. I bought new skoal candies and tried 3 other pairs so I'm guessing its my phone but was curious if anyone else was having this issue.
Thx

ear buds and the like
It might just be your 3.5 mm connection...I tried mine out just now (I had not added music to my Titan previously) and plugged in and was very very pleasantly surprised at the sound quality. I had surmised for myself that my PDA was for phone and calendar etc, and the iPod or other MP3/4 player for audio - mostly for quality of sound. I won't make that mistake again. The Titan is good - very good.

DId you use IE while listening to Music? I don't have any problems with Music playback (Used it to listen to my music collection during work hours whole last week) However I noticed that when I launch IE (search, or by launching IE on its own) sound quality suddenly changes, and degrades..

Hm, I think it has something to do with bluetooth stereo vs headset profile. Weird that it happens with regular ear buds.

I think its defective, I'm going to call ATT tomorrow and have it replaced because I have to hold where the earbuds fit into the 3.5 connecter and put a little bit of pressure to get the sound to come thru. I'm glad to hear no one else is having an issue so thats good
I'm having issues too.
I had problems with my audio jack too. I was looking on here to see if anyone else had issues. At first, I thought that I had a failing headset but then I put another one in and after awhile it started doing the same thing. It's not right away but it seems to start up after a bit. It's really concerning me though. I'm considering getting a replacement and hope this is just a minor issue that affects a few units. I don't want to wait and have it develop into a bigger issue. It frustrates me though, because I had originally bought a focus s and the hands free button didn't work right. It seemed like an issue with the way it registered button presses. Now, I get this phone and the button works right but I'm having these audio issues. Argghh.
I don't have a problem with any earbuds , every one i tried works for me. It might just be your phone itself. maybe deffective? If i was you i would try regular ipod headphones or a friends to see if that really is the problem
hi all, question about the volume sensitivity on the titan. i used to have an iphone 3gs then switched to the skyrocket to try out android but i'm really unhappy with the android music players so i'm either going to trade it in for the iphone 4s or the htc titan (still within the 30 day period).
on my iphone i could set the max volume to wherever i wanted and would have plenty of intermediate volumes to get the level right where i want it.
however, with the skyrocket by the time i hit the 3rd volume level (0=mute, 1= up volume button pressed once) the volume physically hurts my ears and i like loud music.
i'm using the stock headphones that came with my iphone 3gs because i like the fit and the in-line remote. i know these have low resistance but still, only having 2 usable volume settings is ridiculously annoying because i can only listen to music really softly or a bit louder than where i want it to be.
how do you guys feel the volume sensitivity is on the titan? are there more than 2-3 acceptable volume levels for low-resistance (small earbud) headphones? thanks!
i use the included earbuds and the 30 level volume settings seem to fit most situations
Replace it since you're within the 30 days. I got a new one and the issue is cleared up, I had a defective unit. Very happy with it now

Wired headset problem, need help fast

Hello people, I've recently bought Motorola RAZR, but today I've discovered a serious problem with it. If anyone has ever seen something like it, I would appreciate help right now, as I want to take it back to the store in the morning if I don't solve this, which is a shame, it's a very nice phone.
When I play audio on the wired headset that came with the unit, regardless in which audio player (tried 3 different), YouTube, any sound at all, it comes weak and distorted. To give you some idea, it's much like the sound that you get when you don't plug in your headset all the way, but this one is definitely in place. Here comes the weird part - when I press the button on the headset sound goes back to normal and stays that way as long as I hold the button! Tried with ZTE headset from my other phone, exactly the same thing happens. Sound is also good when I plug in the regular speakers in the jack. Sound is good on built in speakers, no issues there, just with headset.
I've already tried cleaning the audio plug from lint, no change. I've searched the whole of internet, but could not find a similar problem. Please help!

I don't think this will help seeing as the problem appears to be fixed upon pressing the headset button, but have you disabled the media audio effects under the sound settings? By default they are set to on and sound terrible.

GSM RAZR comes with a headset. Instead of an SD card, I suppose. As packed-in headsets go, there's worse out there, but that's not saying much.

I took it to the store this morning, they told me it's probably the wrong headset. They will order one today and I will pick it up after work. Let's see if that solves the issue, the sound on this phone otherwise seems very loud, I will take that as a just compensation for the grainy pentile screen.

One thing I noticed with my headset that came with is, the microphone is on the right ear piece. So I believe they are reversed.
My LG and Samsung both had the mic on the left side.
They gave me another headset, which is kind of weird, microphone is in the middle and there is no markings to show which ear bud is left or right. Press on the button doesn't stop the music, but activates voice commands instead. Headset is also somewhat quieter than the old one, but it at least works.

Audio not working through headphones

So I have looked just about everywhere to see if anyone else has had this crazy issue and I can't seem to find anyone else who has.
The issue I am having is that when I plug in Beats headphones or portable speakers into the headphone jack, the audio is only output while I am on my home screen. If I open any other app, pull down the notification shade, or even let the phone sleep, audio no longer pushes through the headphones. It continues to be played but is not being output. Things get even more confusing when I put in Apple ear buds because the issue totally goes away. It only presents itself with headphones such as Beats or portable speakers.
I have had this issue on just about every KK AOSP rom I've ran (tried just about all of them) and using different kernels as well.
I have tried wiping everything and starting from scratch with a clean rom and the issue is still there. It's worth saying that the issue isn't on one single app such as Play Music or Spotify, but rather every app that outputs audio.
If anyone has any suggestions on how to fix this I would be very grateful. I am really a fan of the stock look and fly quite frequently so noise cancelling headphones are much preferred over Apple's.
Thanks for any help given!
EDIT: I'm also on the Verizon Note II

Weird white nose like sound only while using earphones (edit: without earphones too)

Hy guys!
I've just noticed, that if I use my Nexus 9 with my earphones (edit: without earphones too, I've put it next to my ears and heard it), I get some white noise like sound for a short time after opening an app, going back to home screen or watching videos.... (Almost always, while watching video, than constantly)
It's quite quiet, but a bit annoying.
I'm using CM12 nightlies but I heard that also on stock ROM.
Am I the only one?
Is there a solution for this to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
Nope, you're not the only one. I get it on my bluetooth headphones on both the N9 and my old N7. Don't know what causes it, but it seems to be inherent in android.

Yep, can confirm I've had this happen. I thought I heard white noise when my headphones were plugged in, but I wasn't quite sure. This seems be a problem with both speakers and headphones, so definitely a software bug. I have not experienced this on my nexus 5, but I'm not sure if it's nexus 9 only.
My Nexus9 LTE has the same issue,
I always hear noise with earpiece while doing actions( such click item, etc..)
