[Q] Playing music making wierd cutting/buzzing - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys! I've searched for smiliar threads but cannot find anything.
While connecting to my AUX in the car or wearing my 200$ V-Moda the sound is like buzzing or cutting.
Is it maybe a harware failure? If I play a notify sound with high volume the speaker does the same thing.
Any ideas? Anything I can flash to test?

No Stereo output, only mono

Hey guys,
Hope someone can help...
My TP is only playing sound from one of the headphones - for MP3 and for the FM Radio.
Would this be a setting somewhere or a dodgy pair of headphones? It's only 3 days old and the headphones were only taken out yesterday.
Cheers!
Seems to have rectified itself...
Mines just stated doing this, only playing mono no matter what headphones are used.
anyone else come across this?

Headphone jack buzz

hey guys,
my One S has buzzing noise coming from the headphone jack, and this problem is pretty annoying especially when it's connected to my car stereo. I thought it might be just mine, but it seems like this is a common issue.
i found this video on youtube. I have the exact same buzz from my One S, though perhaps not as accentuated as in this video.
seems like the One X has this problem as well. found this thread at the One X board http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1720212
is this a grounding problem in the headphone jack? Beats Audio? what do you guys think?
I've always had this problem with more than one phone. If you charge the phone via USB adapter from the car battery, it gets 10x worse.
This problem only happens when sound is being played back, so when music/video/game sound kick in, it stops. Do you get that noise when sound is being played back?

The buzz is only audible when nothing is playing. Like in that video, when I stop playing music it will be silent for about 2 seconds and then the buzz kicks in again.
I didn't have this issue with other phones
I don't have any buzz, I double checked just to make sure.
Although it might be my headphones, the output is probably not strong enough to play the sound.
It's probably being heard in your car (or in the youtube video) because the output is being amplified.
I'm having the same issue with YouTube and Pandora.

you're right. the issue isn't as noticeable through earbuds. i think that's why many people are saying they don't have this issue. It's still bad though.
I don't know why HTC messed up this part when no other phones seem to have this issue. Makes me sad.
If it's easy to reproduce for you guys, I'd definitely be pushing for warranty replacement.
I do not have this problem at all. On my cheap pair of headphones or on my expensive one. No hum or sound.
the buzz is there, and it also was on my Desire.
Not when playing tho, only when connected and not playing. Not too annoying, always thought it was supposed to be like that.
And no, I have never heard it through ear buds or phones, only when connected to home stereo or car stereo, and if charged through cig-lighter-outlet it amplifies further...

It doesnt effect headphones, only when the sound is amplified. Like when you play music in your car.
Simply because that sound alone is not enough to drive the headphones.

Whether its plugged in to a car or home stereo, its still using the output from the headphone jack. The power output from the jack is the same either way.
I plug mine in to the aux jack of my car stereo daily, and I have no buzz or hum. Do you have your phone plugged in to a power source at the same time? That buzz is usually caused by crosstalk from a poor quality power source.
Or, as I said earlier, it may just be a bad phone.

Well my phone doesnt do it in my headphones. I can't test in car, no aux input.
What I was saying is that, of its buzzing in your car but not on your headphones its because the sound level at which the buzz is at isn't enough to drive your ear buds. But when the car stereo amplifies it its easily driving your car speakers.

Neo M1 (4.2.2) Sound/Music Issue

Hi Guys,
Bit of weird one here!
I've just bought a Neo M1 (http://www.neomobile.me/neo-m1-feature)
It really is an amzing device for the price but support is non existent and as its a new device there arent many forums/discussions available. My issues seems to be more Android/OS based (i think) so hoping someone can help.
When playing music through speakers with the 3.5mm jack its fine, perfect. But when using earphones, and ive tried many, the music sounds like its is muffled or playing certain channels only. Vocals are low, effects are high and it not useable. Ive tried diffrerent music players and equalizers but nothing is working! Has anybody ever heard of this? Surely if it can play fine thorugh speakers it should be able to via ear/headphones?
Thanks in advance for any ideas!!
Sanders.
have you checked to see if contacts are aligned properly?

I had the opposite effect on the iPod classic: with earphones/headphones, ok; thru jack connected to speaker/amp: muffled, distorted sound.
So had to use the Apple plug (wide plug connected at bottom) to connect to speaker/amp.
I guess it may be something to do with the impedance of the phone.
Would be interesting to know if others report the same issue, before I buy this phone.

Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime hardware problem. Help needed badly!

Hello everyone, I'm new to this forum. I need a solution very badly. Recently I made a amplifier, and unfortunately I plugged amplifier's output speaker line to my Redmi 4 Prime's headphone jack. After starting amplifer, my phone got reboot and earpiece speaker making so noise during call, and also when I plugged headphone, sometimes phone getting rebooted itself while plugging, and right speaker of headphone making only noise and getting hot! Also when I boost bass, headphone stopping any music playing sound. I disassembled my phone and check that the headphone jack port shown about 2V on multimeter, which might be abnormal. Now I can't talk without loudspeaker (because of noise). Guys, how can I solve this??? ??????

White Noise and Clicks on Headphones

Hey Guys,
I already read about the click sounds on earpiece but I have another problem.
I connect my QC25 headphones via the USBC to Audio jack Dongle but as soon as music is playing for 10-15 seconds I get quite loud white noise. When I pause the music it will stop eventually after 10 seconds.
If I increase volume the white noise also stops. Sometimes comes back with some clicking noise.
Anyone else has this? Pixel 2 seems to have many problems. Very poor quality for this high price.
Might the problem come from the adapter you're using? The audio coming from the pixel itself is digital and that should be free of white noise. I'm pretty amazed by the quality of sound coming from this little adapter and have not had the symptoms you described. Sorry to hear this.

I have exactly the same headphones and issues you have. Did you find any solution for it? RMA the USB-C dongle?
