Anyone having crackle or sizzle noise from the iPhone 4S ear speaker?

Anyone else getting a hissing or crackling noise during phone calls? It happens in doors, outdoors, and is independent of hand position. Sounds like electrical noise. This is my second brand new 4S to do it.
Any solutions besides hard and soft resets or restores? Tried that already.

I have chat with apple support chat details below there no solutions from apple for crackling noise
TaneyThanks for contacting AppleCare chat support. My name is Taney. Please give me a moment to look over your information.
Me:hi
Me:am using iPhone 4s receiver crackling noise issue
TaneyHello there!
Me:yes
TaneyUh oh! That's never a fun issue to experience and I'm glad to help you in any way that I possibly can, right here over chat, you're in the right place.
Me:i have replaced more then 4 times
Me:same problem remains
Me:i asking what i have to do
Me:many of apple users experienced same issue and they register complaint in apple site
Me:but no solutions
Me:hello there ?
TaneySo your receiver crackles and you've replaced this iPhone more than 4 times for that same issue, is that what you're meaning? Just wanting to make sure.
Me:yes
TaneyI appreciate your time with me while I research our best next step to take from here. That almost sounds like maybe it's not the hardware or maybe you should get a replacement SIM card. Have you asked your carrier or replaced the SIM card for this issue?
Me:i have replaced 5 different sim cards and different networks but noise coming
TaneyDifferent networks like different carriers?
Me:yes
Taneyin that case it sounds like it's probably related to your region or possibly whoever you are contacting.
TaneyI don't see any previous cases with us here for this iPhone, I wonder if I have the proper device here, unless you're referring to replacing them on your own and not through Apple.
Me:uh oh did you check your apple site many of apple uses post this same issue
Me:uh oh did you check your apple site many of apple users post this same issue
TaneyI don't doubt you're experiencing the issue at all, I totally believe you.
TaneyYou can submit product feedback about this at apple.com/feedback. We have a team here at Apple, who's entire job is dedicated to reviewing this feedback, and escalating it to the proper outlets (such as the engineers for iTunes, iPhone, iPad, etc.), so you can rest assured that your voice will be heard! The more feedback we receive about product features, the more likely we are to implement them!
TaneyIt sounds like you've tried so many things, I'm not sure what might be a different resolution for you and this crackling issue. Different phones, carriers, SIM cards, and probably all amounts of troubleshooting. Would you want to try some things here with me now?
Me:i have already submitted my feedback
TaneyIf you can't hear a person on a call or voicemail or if the sound quality is poor on iPhone(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window)(Opens in new window) - Helpful article for this.

Me:i have tried all these checking
Me:after this much of issue sill am using iPhone because i loved it
Me:but this silly issue irritating me when on voice call
TaneyThank you. Please allow me just a moment to contact some additional support for us and we may bring them into our chat for some insight.
Taneyit's only on cellular calls or do you experience the issue with anything else? If you toggle to speakerphone, does it continue with the call or become clear?
Me:issue only in ear receiver
Me:there is no issue in headphone or speaker phone
TaneySo if you switch to speaker during a call, there is no crackling noise? That sounds strange. That would normally point to a hardware concern, but that wouldn't make sense considering you've tried several different iPhones and all of the other troubleshooting.
TaneyNot sure, we'll see what our consultant suggests we do from here. Thanks for being so awesomely patient.
TaneyWhat would you like for us to do, as the best goal that you had in mind?
Me:i think this very simple issue for apple, Please fix all your feature product
TaneyIt doesn't sound like the devices are likely to be the reason for what you're experiencing. I wish there was an easier answer but I am reviewing your case with another advisor right now and we'll see what additional information we can find for you.
TaneyIt could even be related to the iPhone 4s.
TaneyUpgrading could be an alternative.
Me:that i dont know
Me:i didnt check any other phone
Me:upgrading means ?
TaneyPerhaps the technologies in your region/s are better suited for a newer iPhone model. I don't want to make promises but I would suggest visiting a carrier location and maybe trying a 5 or above and see if you still experience the issue.
TaneyThey can usually give you some kind of trade or other options for your 4s to get value towards upgrading.
Me:okay but check this https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3414732?tstart=0
Me:also this https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3414732?start=60&tstart=0
Me:Please give solution for this issue otherwise you loose customers
Me:iPhone 5 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5972811
TaneyI do see those threads. I don't want you to keep experiencing the crackling noise issue anymore. I wouldn't like that on my calls either.
Me:iPhone 6 https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6586599
TaneyCan I have you speak with my friend, Joseph?
TaneyI'll bring him over whenever you're ready.
Me:am from india
Me:am ready
TaneyThank you.JosephThanks for contacting AppleCare chat support. My name is Joseph. Please give me a moment to look over your information.
JosephHi there Ponsubbiah!
Me:yes
JosephI understand that you’re having a lot of trouble with your iPhone 4S, even after multiple service replacements there is still trouble with the receiver, a crackling noise that has not been solved yet. Is that correct?
Me:yes you are correct
JosephThat is absolutely terrible to hear, especially after so many service attempts at this, this really is an unfortunate issue.
JosephI am thinking an upgrade could be possible for this, something to consider. Have you had an opportunity to test with newer iPhone models?
Me:last week also i went to apple store for this issue but they said we cannot do any more said sorry simply
JosephThey cannot do anymore service replacements?
Me:are you sure is upgrade is only solutions but what you will say for these posts Me:iPhone
Me:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5972811
JosephIn your experience with the iPhone 4S so far, I think trying a newer model could work better for you, not to say it is the only solution but replacement for you so far has not been successful.
Me:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6586599
JosephHaving a look now
JosephHave you had a chance to use a new model?
Me:am sorry just a month before i have paid for replacement
JosephYou paid for the last replacement? Sorry, I don’t know the full details for your service.
Me:yes
Me:because warranty period is over
JosephMakes sense, this isn’t good though, not for you.
JosephTrying to think about what we could do, have you spoke with our support there in India, by phone?
Me:yes but no use of it
Me:so apple wont fix this issue right?
Me:you people check often apple support communities
JosephIt’s difficult to fix an issue like this, it doesn’t seem to affect all devices, I’ve never seen it affect so many devices in a row.
JosephYes, it is something we monitor closely to keep log of specific problems.
Me:if you do this issue will not repeat your new product
JosephIt isn’t something i’ve experienced personally with my own devices, but i’m trying to understand it. Is it only with certain contacts?
Me:i never expect this from apple, dont know what to say
Me:no for all
JosephCan you describe it for me?
Me:when i am talking with someone in ear speaker stat crackling noise in background if we are in very silent place the noise we can hear clearly
JosephBoth of you can hear it?
Me:no, in my phone only. the same sim card i have used in NOKIA mobile but there no noise in this
JosephDo you use a case on your iPhone's?
Me:yes
Me:okay. any suggestions or solutions?
JosephHonestly, I think at this point, using a different model. One of our newer ones to see if your experience improves would be best.
JosephIt sounds like something is interfering with your conversations, a crackling noise like that isn’t normal at all. Testing without a case could help.
Me:I dont think so again go for apple. If i face same issue in new one then i loose my money. anyway thank you for your reply.
JosephAppreciate you letting us know about the problem, it definitely helps us keep track of them, even for previous models.
JosephIf you have time later please reach out to us by phone and we can see about more options in this.
Me:Thank you Jo. Bye.
JosephPlease take care now
We never get solutions from apple.........................................

do you sync your contacts with an application in your computer? or use iCloud?
I can't tell you why the contacts disappear but you can get them back without much hassle by syncing through iTunes with your computer.
do you regularly make backups? if so, you can restore your iPhone using the backups and get your contacts back in your iPhone.
It is strange that half of your contacts are gone over and over again. Do you have Groups that are unchecked in your iPhone? If so, the contacts in those groups will not appear in your contacts list but they are in your iPhone and be recovered by re-checking the group name.

Was it working before? What type of email accounts?

Strange noises at the iPhone 4S Phone Speaker

Everytime I touch the Speaker at the top of the iPhone it makes strange little noises. I already was in the Apple Store with this Problem and got a new one directly. Now the problem is starting new.
iPhone didn't fall on the ground or something like that.
Always carried in a Scotch & Soda case.

Since "strange noises" is a little vague, and we don't have the ability to examine your phone, it's pretty much impossible for anyone here to make an intelligent guess... If you already had one replaced for the same reason, you might want to take this one back to the Apple store and see what they say.

Sizzling noise from MacBook

I started to notice a sizzling noise coming from my new MacBook lately. It's not a loud noise, however it is very annoying when I'm sitting at my desk and I can hear it. It sizzles even louder when the battery is charging, and the power adapter sizzles as well. I have 2 more days to have it returned or exchanged so I want to know first is if this type of sizzling noise from the MacBook is normal or should I get it exchanged? My serial number starts with 4H6202, i heard that 4H624 and higher do not have these issues? Is this true? Should I exchange my MacBook? Because the noise is really ticking me off...

Mine makes a crackling noise every once in a while. It makes the noise whether connected by battery or adapter. I was given this macbook yesterday as a replacement for one I bought 10 days ago that just kept shutting down in the middle of applictions. I don't understand. I am starting to lose confidence in apple. I feel like I am going to have to buy the extended care for 3 years but at £199 - I do resent it. Why can't I have a computer that will work for 3 years without paying £200 extra. I love the computer otherwise.

TS3274 Hi, have just got new iPad 3 and am having difficulty receiving FaceTime calls from husbands iPhone 4s. IPad wasn't ringing at all and the iPhone would get a message saying iPad was unavailable for FaceTime yet we were using same Internet connectio

Hi,
Just got the iPad 3 which is our first and we were messing around with FaceTime between this and our iPhone 4s. The problem was we can FaceTime the mobile but we kept getting a message flag that the iPad wasn't available.
After much deliberation and googling we have managed to get the iPad to at least ring when we FaceTime it from the iPhone but the new problem is it rings for half a second giving no one a chane to answer.
Can anyone suggest anything else?
So far we have checked in setting that all sounds are enabled, put slide switch to mute then flicked the mute button up and down on the side of the iPad above the volume and also changed the DNS numbers on both mobile devices to ensure they sync but I am still having the same problem.
All answers greatly appreciated

Strange noise from the back of my iPad

Hi!
I've had my iPad 4 since Christmas and its always made a strange noise from the back when releasing pressure. This happens when holding the iPad in landscape mode with home button to the right and since that's my favorite way to hold it it happens all the time.
Apple support could not verify over the phone if this was normal or not, should I take it to them for a look? I suspect something not being properly glued inside but I don't have a clue if its serious or not. Is it worth opening up and having it fixed?

Hi King Penguin.
Many thanks for your quick response
I've swapped sockets and it still happens and I've tried the plug from my I phone as well and no change. I've spent the last hour or so searching the forums and come across so many conflicting theory's included responses from apple where people have been told its normal, the general consensus seems that it's an earthing problem with the supplied adapters, i.e no earth connection in the supplied adapter. I'm no electrician however but seems strange to me that apple know of this and are quite happy to to nothing about it. I'm going back to the apple store this week to discuss it with them and see what they say.

Help Please - having difficulties creating af link from the text to an attached file i acrobat

I have been reading the help, but it just wonn't work when I try.
I have tried as followed (I am working with a danish version, and hope to matched the same word as in the english version of Acrobat Xpro):
1. From the toolbox i choose content and then 'hyperlink'
2. I mark the text from which i wish to make a link
3. Acrobat respond with an popup picture 'create a link'
4. From the popup I mark 'Open a side' and push 'next'
5. Acrobat respond with a new popup picture 'create / go to a side'
6. I go to the navigator and open the list with attached file's that I have embedded in my acrobat file.
7. I mark the to which i wish to make a link to
8. In the popup 'create / go to a side' that stilll is open, i push 'Mark hyperlink'
Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
How do i do it right?
Please help.

Hello Bernd
Thanks for a quick respond.
This corresponds to the text I have tried myself, but apparently I do something wrong
1.      Open a PDF that contains a PDF file attachment – done
2.      Go to where you want to create a link. If that location is in the file attachment, click the Attachments button in the navigation pane, select the file attachment, and click open.
Here I go to side number 10 from which I wish to make a link from (I am not open the attachment file at this moment, as the location not is inside the file attachment).
(I earlier also tried to mark the attachment file and click open, and It result that the attached file just opened normally without creating a link to the file).
3.      Choose Tools > Content > link, and select the area for the link
Here I mark the text on side 10 from which I wish to make a link to a attached file
4.      In the Create Link dialog box, set the link appearance, select Go To A Page View, and then click Next
Here I have selected ‘Go to a page view’ as told and I click Next
5.      Set the page number and view magnification you want, either in the parent PDF document or in the file attachment, and then click set link.
Here I go to the navigation pane and mark the attached file from the file list (the files in the list hasn’t any side number in the list) and then I click Set Link.
Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
What do I do wrong.?

Is normal at power mac make noise from the optical drive?

when I power , the mac make some noise from the optical drive , I guess, This is normally? this noise just appear when I update my Mac to Mountain Lion 10.8.2
Thank you everyone!

Normal, normal, normal. Don't know the reasoning behind it - I suppose the MBP is trying to load anything that might be in the drive at startup. Had me confused for awhile, way back when...

Crunching noise from the optical drive

Whenever I try to insert a CD into the disk drive, I get the noise from sample-1 under the "Inserting a disk" section from the Apple support link Mac notebooks with optical drives: Noises from the optical drive - Apple Support
I can't find anything on how to fix this yet so I'm hoping somebody here can help. I bought this macbook secondhand off of somebody on craigslist almost a year ago so I have no way to contact them anymore. I've only used this computer as a backup so I've never known this problem existed before now.
Any thoughts?
Edit: The CDs won't play and ejects after about 30 seconds of making that crunching noise without showing up anywhere on my drives.

If your optical drive is making a crunching noise it's probably a goner. You can replace it yourself using the guides at iFixIt https://www.ifixit.com/Device/Mac
Or better yet replace it with and SSD for lightning fast performance and get a USB external optical drive.
