Crackling Noise When Receiving Calls

Hey, I've had my iPhone 3G since its release. This morning, I noticed that when I recieve a call, the person on the other side can hear me fine, but all I hear is a crackling noise. When I make a call, its fine. When I receive a call with the iPod speakers in, its fine.
It was fine last night, it just started this morning. Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

This is probably a network problem, not the phone, if you can hear OK on some calls but not others. If you consistently can hear through the headset, but not the earpiece speaker, that may be another problem and try resetting the phone, or restoring it. What happens when you use the speakerphone?

Crackling noises when using Scarlett 2i2?

Just bought the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 yesterday as my previous audio interface broke. Now I am having crackling noises when using the 2i2. . .a problem I did not have with my previous M-Audio Fast Track C400. . .so I know it's a problem specific to the 2i2. Already downloaded the latest drivers as well.
Anybody have any solutions or similar problems with this product??? The crackling noise is intolerable.
Thanks.

Hi lee, it sounds like the problem your having is exactly the same as mine. When I use the 2i2 there is clapping and crackling which gets worse and worse until the sound disappears, I know a few people on different forums are having the same issue so I don't think it is the interface. I'm using iMac 27
•      NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5
•      3.5GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.9GHz
•      16GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X8GB
•      1TB Serial ATA Drive @ 7200 rpm
There should be no problems with this set up in terms of capability, I'm still waiting to hear back from Focusrite tech help desk and when I do I'll share the outcome. I hope this can be resolved, let me know if you have any luck before me?
If I was in the UK I would pick up the phone and call Focusrite but I'm in Australia!!

Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?

Why does my 3G iPhone no longer rings nor vibrates when receiving calls and text messages?
During a two weeks process, little by little I notice my phoe doesn't ring when I get a phone call. So Far I have missed 22 calls that I am aware of. Moreover, the phone does not alert me when I get a text message. Sometimes I receive notice the next day that I received a call or a text message.

Follow the basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide... reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name.

Brand new 5s- sometimes phone numbers display when receiving calls and texts instead of contact name. Hard to know who is calling/texting! A few times I've tapped on the text message icon and I can actually watch as the conversations turn from showing just numbers to the contact names. Same thing when looking at call history and voice mail- sometimes it shows numbers and then I'll go back and the contacts will be back. So frustrating!

You don't dial *228 to update the Preferred Roaming List on 4G phones; I"m surprised the call went through. The PRL updates are handled by the SIM card.
Try this and see if it helps: turn off the phone, remove the SIM card, and wait a few minutes. Then re-insert the SIM card, turn the phone back on, and give the phone a few minutes to re-establish a network connection.

Iphone4,upgrade to IOS7.1.2. Photos associated with contacts display as thumnails when receiving calls. How do I change to full photo?l

IPhone4 Upgraded to IOS 7.1.2. Photos associated with Contacts now display as thumbnail pictures when receiving calls . How do I enlarge display.

You weren't the only one that wanted the full screen photos back. There were a lot of complaints and they are back in iOS 8 but that doesn't help you with iOS 7.1.2 unfortunately.

IPhone continuity - silent switch no effect on iPad when receiving calls

Hi Apple,
I love continuity, especially for calls.
would be great to transfer the status of the silent switch on iphone to ipad/mac -> when iphone is on silent it also mutes ipad/mac, so when receiving calls the ipad/mac doesn't ring!
Or at least give the user to have an option in settings.
thanks for looking into this.

My ringtone will not work, the phone just vibrates when receiving calls.

I just got a new Iphone5s today and my ringtone will not work. The phone just vibrates when receiving calls. How can I get my ringtone to work?

In addition, the most basic troubleshooting is to restart/reset/restore.

Crackling noise when rotating the headphone in the jack?

Is this normal? With the headphones that come with the iPod, I don't get this.. but I bought a different pair.. and they make a crackling noise when i rotate the connector in the headphone jack. Is this normal? Would I experience this if I upgraded to another headphone? Would it be different with the iPod in-ear headphones?

The crackling noise should never happen. The headphones must be defective. Return them to the store, buy another pair, and try them at the store before purchasing.

i have tried a restore and a re-boot
help please thanks

Turn on phone
Press home button twice
Close any open app pages that appear
Restart phone
This apparently resets the apps and the ring tone goes on when you receive a text.
Worked for me anyway.

Re: Satellite L500 - Crackling noise when audio is being reproduced

Hi all,
I bought a L500 a few weeks ago (Windows 7 64bit). Everything goes fine except for the sound. 1h or so after turning on the computer, the speakers start to produce a "crackling", "metallic" noise when audio is being reproduced, irrespective of the source (CDs, system sounds, movies, mp3 files...). It's just like there were hundreds of "micro-interruptions". The same with earphones. This seems also to affect any multimedia files, e.g. videos 10 min length take 12 min or so to play due to these micro-interruptions. The sound goes worse with the time and gets normal once the system is restarted, but some minutes later the noise comes again.
I've all the last Toshiba driver updates, including BIOS, LAN and sound cards, etc.
What can I do? Any clue will be welcome.
Many thanks in advance.

hello,
first thing i would try is to replace the driver from toshiba with the Microsoft driver, I personally dont use any of toshiba's drivers due to branding i dislike, however this to one side I run Windows 7 64 Home Prem, the sound cards (typically realtek) all have Microsoft drivers available, they work with no problem for me.
If its deferntly not a driver issue and you have the same problem with headphones as well as the laptops speakers then its a problem with the soundcard itsself.
Is your laptop still under warranty? hopfully if its hardware its still under warranty. Give toshiba a call, they should pick the laptop up and get it repaired for you solong as you did not get it from somwere like P.C World, AOL etc, if you got it from one of them stores then you need phone or take it to the tekguys.
If you need a step-by-step for using microsofts drivers just reply saying so and i;ll sort that for you :)
cheers
Phil

Can't see names when receive calls/texts!

heya. hope someone can help.
i have a nokia 7370, and about 3 months ago it froze up, the screen went white and i had to turn it off and on again. it did this for a few hours. I deleted my inbox (which was full) and it seemed to work again. I assumed it'd just been freezing up due to no memory.
however,the phonebook now only displays names beginning with 'A' unless i start to type the name (i.e. if i start to type a name beginning with 'M' and then delete the 'M' i can view the entire phone book.). In this format I can view the name and number.
but when i receive a phone call or text message, it only shows the number and not the name. if i send a text, by 'adding contact' I can choose a name from the phonebook and this works fine.
if I look through my call log, some of the logs have a name, others are number only.
each number in my phonebook is used only once. I've tried changing the memory in use to every alternative. I've gone through every option on my phone but can't work out how to fix it.
does anyone have any ideas, please?

help! my phone keeps breaking more and more every few days. i think it's corrupted.
now it doesn't make any noise when the swivel opens or closes (and it's not on silent) and the alarm doesn't make any noise either.

Crackling noise during iPhone call on Yosemite

I am using an iPhone 6 with iOS 8.0.2 and an Early 2011 15" MacBook Pro. When I use the iPhone calling with Yosemite feature, it connects, works, but I hear a very loud crackling noise that comes from the computer, starting immediately when the call is placed and continuing for a few seconds after I hang up, no matter what number I dial. Has anyone else experienced the same problem? Might it just be interference? It is so loud that it gets picked up by the microphone and makes having a sustainable call impossible.
Thanks for your help!

I found this happening when I was calling with Yosemite through my iPhone 5, but only when I was calling my wife's iPhone 4. When I called my land line, the noise wasn't there. Were you calling an iPhone 4?

Is anyone having problems with iPhone 5 not vibrating properly when receiving calls? It seems to vibrate once and stops?

When receiving a call, my phone only vibrates once even if its on silent or not. I have checked all the settings and all appears ok. It works sometimes and doesn't other times. Does anyone know how this can be fixed?
Thanks

Maybe your buzzer gets stuck when it vibrates? Try playing it by creating a custom vibration. Does it keep working properly then?
If that works, try setting up another vibration that should be played when someone calls you.

Has anyone had a problem with no ear-speaker noise when making calls on iPhone 5? Usually work after first call

So I got my iPhone. Had problems with the screen and took it back for a stock replacement. The replacement I noticed about two weeks later that when I make calls, 80% of the calls wouldn't make a noise. I would then look at the screen and see its been answered and the seconds are counting away. I'd hang up and try again which would always work.
I've tried a restore. Twice in facts.
Has anyone else had this problem? I'm running the up to date software but think it could be a hardware problem.

Thank you so much. You have solved my problem. I never thought to click the down arrow. In all the time I have been printing, on any program, the entire window opened up when I clicked on the print button. This one never did. I don't understand why Adobe support never told me about that when I called them.

Why don't names appear when receiving calls?

I've got a 8120 from O2 UK. When receiveing a call from someone stored in the phone's memory, their name almost never appears on-screen. However, bizarrely sometimes the names do appear. This has been the case since owning it.
O2 are not much help. They suggested doing two things (both have not solved it):
1. Remove the battery while the phone is on. Wipe the SIM. Put it all back together again. This worked but for only about 10 mins i.e. for about 10 mins after putting it back together, names showed up on the screen for incoming calls (tested with my home line, alternative mobile number, got some friends to call me, etc.).
2. SIM-swap. I now have the new SIM card and the problem hasn't gone away.
All my numbers are stored on the phone. Nothing is typed in manually. Everything syncs with Outlook using Bluetooth.
Can anyone help?

okay, this is actually a common problem. from your main screen select the blackberry key (next to track ball)->options->security->general settings->include address book->no->reset phone->problem should be fixed!
let me know if this works for you,
