Excessive background noise when using Wired Headset with iPhone5

Hello,
I use my wired headset all the time on my iPhone 5 64gb. Driving working you name it. I get complaints over and over again that my background noise is very often louder than I am. A friend of mine experiences the same issues. So I know its not just me. I have already gone to the Apple Store and had the phone replaced but I still get complaints. I just called Apple and they said they have never heard of the issue. It's my biggest complaint about the iPhone 5 mainly because its how I use it most of the time.
Anyone else having this problem? If so, lets make sure Apple is aware of it so it can be fixed.

yes, my iPhone 5, when used with a corded headset, picks up and amplifies background noise to earsplitting levels. Same for the 2 other people I know with iPhone 5s. It makes using a corded headset all but impossible in most situations, unless I am in a quiet environment in which I am not doing anything.

  • Loud background noise when using headphones with mic. iPhone 5

    I usually use headphones with a microphone to make phone calls, and they used to work perfectly.  As soon as I got the iPhone5, I have had trouble.  The person I'm talking to can hear every tiny background noise louder than my voice.  In fact, they complain that it sounds like glass breaking or the ocean or loud rain.  Today, someone about 20 feet away pulled up the window blinds and my caller said it hurt her ears. 
    I've tried a couple different sets of headphones and have the same problem.  Has anyone else experienced this?

    Yes I have the same problem. I have tried 3 different sets of headphones and have had my iPhone replaced. The problem persisits. I am a Version customer in central Wisconsin.
    The headphones are unuseable while making a phone call in a atmosphere where there is any background noise.
    I have been on the phone for hours with Apple. Problem persists.

  • Noisy background noise when using speaker phone during calls

    Hi
    Phone: sony experia z3
    Does anyone have the same issue as me when you use the speaker phone during calls?
    There is a lot of background noise.The caller's voice also sounds echoish
    When I turn off the speaker and switch back to normal call it noise disappeared, the the caller's voice is clear.

    See if speaker voice enhancement is enabled.

  • Noise when using headphones with new Lumia 630

    I've got a new Lumia 630 today and when I tried to use headphones with it at first phone did not recognize them ( I still have to reconnect them sometimes) but the main problem is a hiss noise when phone produces sounds. It could be music, video or keyboard clicks, whatever. I can hear it even when loudness of music player is set to 0. Is it known issue? Or is it problem with my phone? I tried another headphones and have the same problem, maybe a less noise.
    Sorry for my English. Need your help!

    Hi wtfwithmyphone,
    Welcome to the forum! 
    Does it only happen when using the phone with headsets? Do you also hear this noise when the audio is played via loudspeaker? What are the models of the headsets that you tried with your Nokia Lumia 630?
    Note that the Nokia Lumia 630 supports headsets that have American Headset Jack (AHJ) ports. Using other types of headsets may cause performance issues, like background noise and audio quality distortion. This link will show you some of the headset models supported by the Lumia 630: Accessories for Lumia 630 - Headsets.

  • Getting rid of background noise when recording cassettes

    How do I get rid of the hissing background noise when I transfer cassettes into GB?

    Thanks - this is totally new to me. What sort of software do I need to clean up the noise after the fact? I'm dealing with old cassettes and a cassette player with no dolby option.
    there's a bunch of applications that will clean up or "restore" noisy audio, and they range a lot in price and features. Here's a few options:
    Bias makes Soundsoap 2 (around $100) and Soundsoap Pro (around $550). Bias makes some great audio software, so Soundsoap 2 might be more than adequate.

    If you think you might want to use Roxio's Toast 10 Titanium Pro (around $115), it comes with a version of Soundsoap included. As long as you don't need the features of a dedicated noise removal application, it's a pretty good deal:

  • Noise when using isight in Movie 08

    I have substantial noise when using iSight in iMovie '08. Please see my example on Youtube Mirno63 labeled test. I would like to have my daughter practice for a recital using isight but the noise is so loud. Please help!
    Thanks

    Hello, Marian (mirno)
    If I am listening to the correct YouTube video, I think that at least some of the sound that is troubling you is background noise. Sookyas may also be right that feedback is causing your problem.
    In either case, using an external Mic that is positioned closer to the voice you want to record than to your MBP should help you.
    I use this Logitech USB Desktop Microphone when I want to get sound from a person who is not close to my Mac. My Logitech does a GREAT job on spoken words. Although it is not advertised as (and does not cost as much as) a music microphone, it gives better sound recordings than my laptop's built-in mic unless the voice being recorded is very close to my laptop. It certainly meets my singing and other amateur music needs. However, other brands should work, too.
    Unless you can buy one from a trusted retailer who will give you full exchange or refund credit if a new microphone does not correct your problems, I suggest you take your wonderfully portable MBP with you when you shop, add any needed driver, and test the mic before you buy.
    Here is how I would perform the test. 
    • Leave "AudioMide" settings at default. (You should not need to change these settings when using iMovie except in extraordinary circumstances.)
    • Set your  > System Preferences > Sound > Input to use the new mic as your input device.
    • Extend the microphone's cable away from your MBP, and start recording.
    • Leave the computer where it is and physically move near the mic so your mouth is approximately half a meter from mic.
    • Sing or speak in a normal voice for a few seconds and then stop the recording.
    • Now change your System Sound Input preference back to user you MBP's built-in mic again.
    • Start recording again.
    • Leaving the MBP in place, move back to the same place where you tested the external mic.
    • Sing or speak again at about the same volume you did when using the external mic.
    • Stop the recording, and play back both recording so you can compare them.
    This test should let you easily determine whether the external mic meets your needs.
    If the noise is still there when recording from the external mic, there is most likely something wrong with your Mac. Contact Apple or your Apple-Authorized Service Provider.

  • 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!!

  • Strange behaviour when using connection pooling with proxy authentication

    All
    I have developed an ASP.NET 1.1 Web application that uses ODP.NET 9.2.0.4 accessing Oracle Database 8i (which is to be upgraded to 10g in the coming months). I have enabled connection pooling and implemented proxy authentication.
    I am observing a strange behaviour in the live environment. If two users (User 1 and User 2) are executing SQL statements at the same time (concurrent threads in IIS), the following is occurring:
    * User 1 opens a new connection, executes a SELECT statement, and closes this connection. The audit log, which uses the USER function, shows User 1 executed this statement.
    * User 2 opens the same connection (before it is released to the connection pool?), excutes an INSERT statement, and closes this connection. The audit log shows User 1, not User 2, executed this statement.
    Is this a known issue when using connection pooling with proxy authentication? I appreciate your help.
    Regards,
    Chris

    Hi Chris,
    I tried to reproduce your complaint, but was unable to. I didnt use auditting however, just a series of "select user from dual" with proxy authentication. You might want to see if you can put together a small complete testcase for this and open a sr with support.
    Cheers

  • Scope when using a JavaBean with JSP

    what is the meaning of this question .....?
    "Which of the following can not be used as the scope when using a JavaBean with JSP? "
    question 4

    The question is clearly written. I don't see how you can be confused. But let's assume you are since you would not have posed the question.
    Dumbed-down:
    There are 4 scopes or areas of variable visibility in JavaServer Pages. Which of those can areas can not be used with JavaBeans?
    Does that help?
