[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] conetar:
I have noticed that the audio crackles when using the stock music player as well as the google play. This happens both through the speaker and multiple headsets. It also occurs also whether playing from a file stored locally or when streaming. It is most noticable when listening to a talk show since there are pauses of sllence which make the crackling stand out. It is not near as noticable when using the poweramp app. It is not the same issue as mentioned in the "Official Sound Quality" topic in the International Galaxy S3 forum since this occurs whether the screen is on or off. Has anyone else noticed this?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Cloudz1337:
Yes. At the gym today, my audio crackled about 2 times (headphones). Very annoying but w/e
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Srgsx:
The Onex I had would do this at times as well, arrgh. Was hoping this would not be an issue with the S3. Is this an android thing ?

How?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] CZ Eddie:
I'm getting crackling sound from the internal speaker when I use Gallery to play a video.

Also getting crackling from my left front tweeter when I use bluetooth in my car. I don't get it when I use the 3.5mm audio jack though. Nor does it come from any other speakers in the car.

And getting cracling from internal speaker while using Jango.

Don't get it while using iHeart though.

I am having the exact same issue as mentioned in the OP. I posted a thread in Q&A and no one else mentioned having the same problem.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] robstunner:
I haven't noticed any streaming over Bluetooth
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] nixk:
I exchanged the phone and no crackle, so I am guessing it's a hardware issue of some sort.

I went by the AT&T store yesterday to exchange mine and they did not have any to exchange. Arrrrgh! The rep promised to give me a call when they do.

I'm not getting cracking but my audio skips when I receive a txt or gchat reply. Anyone else experiencing this? Sorta annoying
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] enaybee:
I got mine today from AT&T.

When connected to car's stereo via bluetooth ... it crackles/cracks/pops/chips after every 5 - 10 seconds. I tried playing different audio files - same results. Play video clip - same results. Played youtube video - same results.

When I connected the phone via FM transmitter ... there was no cracking/popping in sound. I will test it again with a 3.5 mm auxiliary jack and update the post.

It looks like its a hardware issue ... however since these phone are not in the stores yet. Its hard to get a replacement handset right now.

Problem is so bad that its impossible to carry on listening to music or podcast ...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] N9NTH:
Uh oh.

I have a U.S. (Canadian, same thing) model SIII and I have a SQ problem. It only appears at very low volumes but my quieter music sounds like it's passed through a kazoo. This disappears when I turn up the volume. I don't think it's the "crackle" issue I've seen frequently described on other forums, because it occurs continuously when I output audio through the headphone jack, not only when the screen is off. This problem occurs across apps and file formats, including my flawless FLAC collection. I've played the same files back on an iPod touch (320 kbp mp3s) and the iPod has no problems. I'm really, really hoping this isn't a hardware issue, because I've already exchanged 2 S IIIs at the shop I bought it from due to screen issues and the manager's visibly pissed at me for cutting into his margins :P If it is though, looks like I'll have to face him again... He might even refuse to exchange it :/

Samples:

In the attached .zip, one .wav was recorded from a video played back using the stock video player on the SIII on the lowest volume setting (this problem persists on other player applications).

The other .wav was recorded from an iPod Touch playing back the same video on its stock player, also on a very low volume setting (much more clearly than the SIII).

As you can see (hear), it's terrible on the SIII... any idea what's going on? I think I have the same issue as enaybee. If any of you with SQ issues could check out the samples and see if that's also what you're experiencing it'd be great :D

Cracking popping on bluetooth

I am having the same issues of cracking and popping when using my bluetooth on the preinstalled car system on an 07 gl 320 mercedes. it appears in the "bugs" post re Samsung GS3 about the popping and cracking.

It is horribly annoying and obnoxious. it's so loud at times I can't even hear the other person on the other line.

I'm taking mine back to the VZ corp store I bought it at and going to work with a tech there to see if it's just mine or if it is on a replacement phone as well.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] scitech09:
I had an HTC One X that would do this when playing music from Spotify and using a Bluetooth headset. I have not had this with the S3. I imagine that this is a software issue, likely related to Android.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Caver13:
Same issue here

I have the same cracking / popping issue. I spent 1 1/2 hours in a Verizon store last night convincing them there was a problem. I paired my headphones with an in store display and the sound was fine. Had them listen to my Galaxy and they could hear the cracking. The connected one of their headphones to my phone and heard the cracking. Finally, they agreed there is a problem with the phone. Unfortunately, there (apparently) are no white 32gb available anywhere at this time, so I am waiting for a backorder.

Not sure what they were looking at, but they later mentioned (while searching for a replacement device) that they have had other reports of the same problem.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Here is a stock rom backup for the Sprint G S III. I made the backup after doing a data wipe, so the rom is pure, no lingering data, ect.

Instructions:

-unzip the .zip file

-move the backup folder into your existing CWM folder on the S III internal memory

-restore in recovery

Again, this is a stock backup as some people need it.

How is this in any way a stock rom?

Give him a break. At least this isn't in development.

And he at least did something that could be useful until we get a real stock rom .zip or .tar

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kpkimmel:
You have been in every thread criticizing everyone else s contributions...what the hell have you contributed?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Magic Oreo:
It's not, it's a backup. That's not the point, it's still useful to many users that have possibly screwed their device but still have access to recovery. Especially until something official comes out.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pizzlewizzle:
will there be a stock package on odin different than just the stock boot image? my phone is bricked for no apparent reason(see my thread here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1731416) and flashing the stock boot image in odin does nothing. i Also cant get into CWM to flash my backup... :(
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] teh roxxorz:
Eventually there will be, but a lot of people [to include major developers] still don't have the phone yet, so we'll have to be patient. I looked over it, though currently are you able to get into recovery still or no? Additionally did you try re-flashing the cwm recovery in odin?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pizzlewizzle:
I can get into download mode but not into CWMR. The only thing i have tried flashing since it bricked is boot-stock-sprint-sph-l710.tar (which sort of worked the first time). I'm at work and don't have my phone on me so i guess i could try flashing CWMR again later but this is really weird. Thanks for the reply. This is my first Sprint phone, but on my Droid X we had a program similar to Odin where you could push a .sbf file that included everything stock and basically just reset your phone to stock. Do these exist for Sprint phones? The . SBF files were usually rather large(around 350mb or so) but the boot-stock-sprint-sph-l710.tar is around 10 or 15 mb so i know it doesn't include all the system files...

Thanks again
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Bizdady:
Lol i just replied the same thing over on another thread he posted in. Stop jumping around pizzle! :) if you can get into Odin chances are good you can flash cwm and then restore the backup
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] pizzlewizzle:
hahaha sorry about that. When I try and boot into recovery it looks like its about to go to Recovery and then freezes on the Galaxy S III screen. I'll try reflashing CWMR when I get home...Thanks for the advice
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] lost+found:
So is a back up a nandriod?

I have made a few but never resorted one, you just flash it same as a ROM and your done?

I misplaced my stock nandroid when I flashed CM10 build 2 and my extFs SD card had to be formatted to use again, I was sure I had in on PC but can't find it.

Thanks!
[General Questions and Answers] Super Noob 560:
Is there a glitch in this Rom? or did mine possibly just not work right?

I have to say that I love the RL5 VCS Rom, the options are cool and for the most part it works great. the trouble I am having with mine is the lockscreen will invert, like its upside down and reversed. I reboot my phone and it works for awhile, but then it does the same thing again. If any of you have any ideas it would be appreciated

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xChurchx:
My One X restarts when I'm in the Google Play app and while using the built in browser. It seems to be data related... Also I get no error or anything of that nature, it just freezes (stops responding to any input whatsoever the capacitive buttons don't respond either) and it just restarts and goes through the HTC and AT&T load screens. Any ideas as to why my phone keeps restarting after a bit of use on the market, browser, etc... I've sent in my original phone thinking it might've been defective. Turns out the one they sent me did the same thing. Mind you they sent me a refurbished one. So I don't know if its a problem isolated to the original shipments of HOX's since I got mine via a pre-order and this is probably the same batch since the AT&T rep said they had no new devices to ship to me as a replacement.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xChurchx:
Any ideas?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
I've gone through a few HOXs and have never had a single reboot on any of them. My suggestion to you would be to wipe everything (data, cache, dalvik) and reflash your ROM.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xChurchx:
How exactly would I go about doing that. I used the clockwork recovery mod on my Aria back when I had that. But from what I understand the HOX doesn't have that yet and attempting to use ROM Manager or anything that uses it would brick my phone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
We have clockwork mod and TWRP recoveries. I take it you are on a stock ROM then? Are you rooted?

Oh, and never use ROM Manager. Ever.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xChurchx:
Yeah I'm rooted (on the stock ROM) and I managed to get my bootloader unlocked.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] _MetalHead_:
I take it you haven't flashed any mods right? I'd get clockworkmod flashed on your phone and then wipe and flash CleanROM SE. It's very close to stock, perfectly stable (I haven't had a single force close except for one youtube one a long while back right after flashing), and it has some great mods and tweaks. If you are still having reboots, then I would RUU back to stock, see if they are still there and if they are, get it replaced.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] xChurchx:
Sorry, didn't see this (http://briefmobile.com/how-to-install-cwm-recovery-on-htc-one-x-att) on the index. Thanks for the help.

Yep, that's the one. Happy to help.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] nugzo:
Radio

If your issues were mostly data related its probably a radio issue. Be sure to flash a new radio. If I'm not mistaken most roms don't include the radio. I like the latest AT&T as well as 1.88. Much better than 1.73 or 1.85. you can flash it just like a rom if it's in zip format. There's a thread in development with radio In the title. Normally first page.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] jphilippon:
I had this exact problem. EXACT. Does it happen on WiFi only? try turning it off.

EDIT: this happened to me on two different HOXs, one just after i updated to 1.82, and the other, stock from the store on 1.85. I was able to narrow it down to the fact that our home wifi was unprotected with a hidden SSID. as soon as we changed it to WPA it worked fine, and continues to.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N3Ti:
I was on stock 2.3.6

I unlocked boot loader

Rooted

Flashed romracers recovery.

When I reboot into recovery nothing except android triangle and exclamation mark shows up.

Any help? I tried to search but couldn't find anything.

Edit:

I figured out that it was because of install-recovery.sh

I can't figure out way to delete it. I tried fast boot method. I tried root explorer way but I always get permission denied. I have tried changing permissions in root explorer but that is the only file I can't change permissions in. I have root and confirmed that with root checker.

Is there any other way that I could get cwm working?

Edit:

I had to re root and install different version of cwm. Everything is working fine now. Mods can lock this if they want.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nogggin1:
Hey I've asked a similar question in the past although didn't ask it properly and I HAVE searched many a time so I thought I'd ask and a good answer would be extremely appreciated so here goes:

I bought my Play (R800a) the day before Ice Cream Sandwich was cancelled for the device :( *Sadface* and then I soon after discovered that without paying extra for a Test Point unlock I was stuck with a pesky locked bootloader. Now, I thought this was the end for me but then I discovered something amazing! I can still install CWM and flash firmware via Flashtool, So did this mean custom roms on a locked Bootloader?! Yes, yes it did! Now that wasn't the end of my hassles, I also discovered that flashing kernels was impossible with a locked bootloader but what did that matter to me? I just figured I'd ignore Kernels all together, I'm fine with that!

>So what that made me wonder was are there any versions of CM7 or (preferably) CM9 that do not require a custom Kernel? And if so what firmware should my phone be on for it? I am currently on .42 but If it means a custom rom I'm happy to change!

>Next, if there are no safe versions of CM7 or 9 for a locked Bootloader, what other amazing roms are out there that I can use?

>If I were to stay on the stock rom should I update to something else from .42 or stick with it?

ps. Please do not go and say I should just buy a Test Point unlock, I have absolutely no money, I'm 17 with no Job and my parents don't have money either (I just lent mum my money the other day to buy milk).

pps. Will updating the firmware via flashtool wipe my phones memory? If so is titanium backup the best backup tool? (I am rooted)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nogggin1:
I am Carrier unlocked (Previously locked to Telstra Australia)
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brsingr:
Unfortunately most of the GOOD roms use different kernels...especially the CM7 and 9....so you would more than likely have to pay to unlock your phone. Still reading you post, just though I'd put what I've read from the forums here.

Searching around the dev section is normally your best bet to find roms that run through locked bootloader. Make sure you do a nandroid backup before you restore using the rom you choose. Using Titanium Backup is good for backing up games, save data and the data for those games. In your case you should look for GSM locked bootloader roms in the Dev section.
