Interesting ... sounds like an app (most likely a game) which is running in the background and using the sound of your device to get your attention.
Best to check the running apps on both tabs ... start with the recently installed or updated apps which are on both devices.
Is a kind of investigation ... but as tow different devices are affected, it is not device (hardware and firmware) specific.

Hello folks,
In 3 weeks i am able extend my phone contract and i will receive a brand new phone with it.
Now i am in a huge dilemma because i can't choose between some phones. I've listed them below and i know they all have pro's and con's.
I am a huge fan of flashing custom ROMs, taking and editing some pictures and videos every now and then, playing games like GTA 5, Hearthstone etc. streaming movies to my Chromecast on my current device which is an HTC One m7.
Personally i am strongly leaning towards the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, but my question is; which of the phones below would you choose and why?
Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
LG G4
ASUS Zenfone 2
Oppo R7
ELEPHONE P7000
Huawei P8

Hello xda forum. I recently joined this comunity. Heard of it on a youtube video by C4AEtech in the same day that I have rooted my phone - Samsung galaxy note 3 SM-N9005.
Please dont be hars on me, I dont know where to post, so if I'm in the wrong category please move my topic, i'll learn from mistakes.
Since I'm new to rooting and dont wanna do anything by my own cuz there are risks and dont want to intentionally burry my phone, I would like some guidance.
Basicly I have some questions
-I play this game called Taichi Panda and I lagg really hard sometimes, and yeah, my phone has 3gb ram and a strong cpu. With my old phone I had an octa core with 1gb ram and it was same. The issue here is that my old phone was running at 720p and note3 at 1080p . Is there something that I can do to switch my graphics from 1080p to 720p ? (only to this game) I want to record and make some youtube videos and I'd like to be lagg free for extra video quality. The difference between 720p and 1080p is not that big of a deal, and if it helps my game to run lagg free it will be great. P.S. I play only on wifi and I have 50mbs up and down.
-I saw here something about custom roms and kernels. I dont know what are those, but I want to improve my phone in a good way and get the most of it. I would like it to run well, not to lagg somethimes, not to freeze and stuff. I'd like to OC my CPU to a safe limit (what I saw is about 2.7 ghz). I would also like something custom that will improve my phone to perform better.
Offtopic: Recently my phone had some problems (before root). When I plug it it for charging , sometimes it doesnt charge at all and sometimes it charges for 1 sec than for next 2 sec it doesnt and so on. I dont know if its my battery fault of my charger, mabye I have killed it with that game Could you recommand me a program where I can see my battery life remaining ?
Any tip and tricks are welcome, I'm opened to any suggestions. I just want my phone to run better and this comunity just rocks -been searching for stuff in past days but cant do anything on my own.
Best wishes

Hello again.
Since you seem to have several separate somewhat unrelated concerns, it would best for you to start separate threads in that forum if you still have questions after reviewing the information already available there.
Once again, good luck.

Hello
I'm having a problem with my galaxy A8 international variant code SM-A800F
The problem is primarily in the headphone jack and it's primarily an audio statics, I hear some hissing and audio statics from time to time, what makes it wired is that it's only showing up in headphones with built-in mic, I tried an old apple headphones without a mic and there was no problem, the problem appear in low tones when I hit sometime the touch screen and the touch screen gives the sound I hear some statics, when I play a song that is low in tone I hear the statics as well, what makes it also weird is that the statics and the hissing sound is reduced when I rise up the volume above the level that the phone advice me not to pass it, if I open adaptive sound feature and open personalize and listen to the right side I will hear the statics in the left side and vis-versa so what's the problem?
Is it hardware or software ? The majority of the phone dealers and equipments owners who fix phones told me it's a software problem
I love the phone but this is a deal breaker to me
But what do you see is it a software or hardware problem ?
If it was a software, which one should I install that could fix it, I can't root or update the OS through Odin, as no software is available for the SM-A800F international version of the Galaxy A8
Thanks.

Hey everyone,
I bought a Mi4i at the start of the year and right from the get go, there is a definitive lag whenever I use it. This can be seen when I'm typing out a message to someone, switching between apps, playing small games, etc... It's infuriating as I bought the phone solely for the reason that it wouldn't lag because of it's excellent specifications.
I've tried uninstalling all apps I don't use regularly, I've tried switching Bluetooth off as well- basically I've removed all background processes and apps but there's still no improvement. I'm at the end of my wits now, what can I do to speed this phone up and actually have it behave like a good phone?
I've considered rooting it and putting a different rom onto it but from what I've researched, apparently MIUI is faster than both cyanogen and stock android.
Help me please!

Ok, so I have a a Metawatch M1 and so does another family member. Up until recently the app worked fine to connect the phone and the watch. recently the app has stopped working and only gives the error message which states, "Initializing failed, please, check your internet connection and try again." I have tested this app on a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 7, T-Mobile HTC M8 running Marshmallow, and a T-Mobile Sony Xperia Z1s. running Lollipop. All devices yielded the same results. The M1 watch is a nice looking watch that isn't as feature rich as an Android Wear watch but I don't think I need all those features. Is there anyway that the app can be made to stop connecting to the internet since metawatch went out of business?
