There is static when playing music. But not when playing netflix or most games. Has this been heard of before?

Static when playing music is never good, Dizsneyland. Since it is not happening on other applications it may be your music application. What application are you using to listen to music? Have you tried a different music app?Hav e you tried connecting it to Bluetooth?

I'm having this same issue with my new S7. Static over the speaker and using headphones. I've tried two different music apps, so it's not an app issue. Was planning to take mine back today.

I don't hear it at all except during music. Not on Bluetooth or calls or movies or games. It's very annoying! I just got mine on Sunday so it's not even a week old.

I wonder if its happening to everyone that has the edge or just a few. Mines is only a week old. I wonder if I get another one would it be the same problem?

AggieLauren,


Congratulation on the new phone, but are saddened that you are these static issues. Since you have posted this, has anything changed? You mentioned that you were going to take the phone back. Had you visited one of our store locations to do that? If not, let’s get this resolved ASAP! Does it happen when you are listening to a video or on the web as well? Please turn the phone completely off & remove the SIM card with these steps http://vz.to/1UhLiTq. Please remove for 30 seconds, put back in, turn the phone on & test out the music. Please keep me posted on the outcome.

No I havent has a chance to get to a location. My schedule is kinda tight. This is annoying and on top of that I have to find time to 1 find a location that has this phone in stock. 2 waste my time on resolving an issue with a brand new phone. I turned off the phone, removed the SIM, replaced the SIM while phone was off. Still hear static

Dizsneyland, having a working phone, especially a new one, is an absolute must! Let’s get this figured out as we want you to enjoy your phone. I’d like to rule out as many factors as we can. Seeing that it’s only happening during music apps, let’s put the device in safe mode to see if that makes any difference in the static.
