I have a Rogers Galaxy Note, rooted, but running stock.
Every night, at exactly midnight, it flashes on and off very quickly.
Is anyone else experiencing this?
Nope

I do not know, I'm always sleeping at midnight. In the words of Bette Davis "Gettin' old ain't fer sissies!"
I'm usually up around midnight and I have not seen this. I'm on an AT&T Note though.
Your Note is possessed lol

What rom are u using? Maybe flash a different ron to see if a software issue. Or do a factory reset.

I'm running the default stock Rogers rom.
If you're on the east coast, midnight is coming up. Check it. To test, just have your phone locked and screen off at midnight, and watch it. It doesn't reboot.. just flashes on and off quickly.
It's quite possible there is an app I have installed that is doing this, so tonight I plan on checking it with logcat. I'll report my findings afterward (PST).
You sure its not notifying you something but I would go with the posses idea. I see dead people comes to mind.

doh! i was coding and forgot to plug in and check logcat. tune in tomorrow. sorry.
Its probably some app scheduled to do something at midnight over your wifi.
I know my Captivate used to do the same thing, any time the wifi was used, the screen would turn on briefly (less than a second) and turn off the screen while doing whatever it was doing over the wifi (like Beyondpod when it went to update my podcasts, the screen blinked on/off, then immediately after the screen turned off, it started checking for new episodes and downloading).
So it's either APOD, or it's my system. Those are the only two culprits. I'll uninstall APOD and report back tomorrow.
I've had my Rezound since November and now I'm starting to have issues with whining audio. Anybody else experience it sometime after buying the phone?

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 was just wondering how much time everyone spends using or playing with Galaxy Note2 per day average? I spend about 5~6 hours and I can't control it.
If im not working, Usually ~8-9 hours sometimes longer. Ive had it alnost 2 months and still can hardly put it down

On the phone for work a lot so probably 9+.

May I ask, what kind of work you do?
I would say, being the geek I am, 4-5 hours of on screen time is logged in per day. That's been the rough average since I've had this phone for only a week.
During the week, 2-3 hours at most. Weekends, anywhere from 2-10, depending on what I'm doing that day.
I'm using my gnote2 all the time. Whenever my hands are free, my phone is in them. Its a lot of phone to learn as stock but now that its rooted I got double the stuff to play with on this bad boy. I quickly got used to the size and now every other phone is tiny and mine is normal. I honestly feel my hands have gotten bigger. Lol. I love this thing

Hey guys, so I picked up a galaxy note 2 the other day and it's been great but after a few days I noticed the the vibrate had gotten louder and different sounding and I figured out that it is caused by the s-pen rattling when the phone vibrates because it feels slightly loose in the slot because i can kind of move it back and forth when it is in there and I was wondering if anyone else was having the same problem? or if not I might go swap devices at the store if I'm the only one with the issue. Thanks
Mine is pretty tight, take it back and get another one.

Yeah mine is nice and snug in there. I'd have them swap it out for another phone.
Sent from my SCH-I605 using xda premium
I mean it doesnt like jiggle around if I shake the phone, I can just slightly move the end when its inserted in the slot. But I guess it is loose enough in there or something so that I can hear it when the phone vibrates, I think I'll head to the verizon store today then

I had this same issue on my other phone. I swapped it out due to speaker issues, and my second phone doesn't have the same issue. On my previous phone, my friend tried to jam the S-Pen back in the slot without putting it in the proper direction. Anyways, I used the S-Pen a lot initially and now barely use it. I'm wondering if those who say they have a snug s-pen fit, utilize the s-pen a lot?
Anyways, i'd take it back if you can. If it was with assurion/replacement, i'd just say deal with it because most likely it'll happen again if you use the s-pen a lot.
Im still within the first 14 days of having it so I believe I can exchange it for a new one

I'd do it then.
Usually I never buy with insurance, but with all the issues that the Note2 has I bought it this go around.
But I still think this issue will pop up again with constant S-Pen use.
Thats what I was thinking.. because it didn't start happening until after a few days of having it, in which I played around with the s pen a good amount.. but if other people dont have the issue I would rather not have it either because I text a lot and when it rattles on 60% of them it gets a bit annoying

Like I said, the people above didn't comment on their usage though of the S-pen... I barely use it now, and it is in there pretty snug. When I first got the phone before the swap, I used the pen for everything.
So I have had the issue, but on the new phone not yet. May as well do the exchange... though if you can.
Im not even sure anymore.. I used a buddies phone today and sent myself 10 texts and it didnt do it on any of them but then I had anothee friend send me 10 and it did it on 5/10 of them

No issues on my end. I have the black Note 3 if that helps.
I got the black one. It will be fine for a minute, then start making noises and crackling type sounds. But this is my 3rd note. So I was just curious if maybe it could be the network? I am gonna try a wifi Call and see if it's different

Doesn't do it when I listen to the pre recorded visual Voice mail messages. And it will be fine on a call for a minute and then start acting up. I notice on my wife's Galaxy S3 that when the signal is bad and stays to break up it kinda sounds similar to what I'm hearing, just not so noticeable. I'm wondering if it's these upgrades they are doing here. Funny how pre recorded messages don't have this issue but when I'm on a call it does
Sent from my SM-N900P using xda app-developers app
Most likely a network issue. I know when they are working on towers they offload on to other towers and that causes all kind of problems. Id say give it sometime. If you have the TEP on the phone hardware issues are covered for free.

I'm gonna wait until the end of the week to see if it goes away. what's the chances of getting 3 defective notes all with the same issue? Like I said, listening to the pre recorded voice mails that came on the phone play just fine which leads me to believe that if it were a hardware issue, it would happen when I play those messages as well but it doesn't

I know it can't be hardware because phone calls make this sound whether it's through the headpiece or the speaker phone. But music and other apps that use the speaker don't have this noise.
I'm thinking it may have something to do with the radio. May need to be updated.
If I get a 4th note and it does it then I know it's something network related. My wife's Galaxy S3 isn't as pronounced but you can kinda hear it. The note 3 is just more noticeable

Just a heads up,
I was looking at a co-workers G2 on Verizon today and heard the same cracklin' when making a call, it wasn't that way on messages or audio.
But when making a call it had the same issue. I did not try making a wifi call.
She thought it was just her who heard the noise but is super irritated now. She is looking into the LG Optimus G Pro on AT&T.
I have the same crackling irritating popping noises while making and receiving phone calls. It happens if I am using the phone earpiece, speakerphone, earbuds, and also on Bluetooth. When playing music on ear buds I do not hear the crackling and popping irritating noise. That sucks because I really like the phone but I run a business and I really need to use the device as a phone. I will definitely be returning this phone in a couple days if the issue does not get any better which I'm 99 percent sure it won't on its own.

I am in the situation as yourself. I also run a business and since I am on wifi 95% of the time. I already am using Line2 and for me and how I use my devices Line2 has been a life saver. Especially when I at a clients place up in the hills where there is no hope of a signal.
Hope it gets better for you and the rest of the folks out there.
