Sorry I don't mean to be rude but, what a waste of time.  I hardly think that anyone is really that interested.

Again, sorry it this offends.

sorry for double post but on a more on-topic subect. we know that the sound is being produced both through the earphones and internal speaker. and it is not connected to the type of sound being produced (scrolling down list and mp3 playback are examples). but is this *sound* being produced when no other audio is and therefore the speaker/eaphone socket are not *active* for it to be heard?

if it could be proved that this *hiss* was happening ALL THE TIME, but only audiable at certain times (when the sound is active) it would rule out a lot of possibilities.

The only way i can think of to check for this would be by purpousfully trying to get feedback from the phone using radio/other electronic devices.

anyway thats probably all a load of pony, but just a thaught wink.gif

there is no hiss, when the device doesn't play some audio-content. i've made a test to check if the noise occures during calls. girlfriends nokia(3000Hz->SDAmusic->PC->Adobe Audition. there seems to be no hiss during calls.

hi mates,

Dear Mr. xxxxxxx
Many thanks for your eMail to T-mobile.

The bug you mentioned is known and forwarded to the manufacturer. Although other noticeable problems were forwarded to the manufacturer. Im sorry that the update will take a while, when its available, you can download it at our homepage (www.t-mobile.de). Please have appreciation, that we can't work with data from private forums.....

Best regards

By the way, did you email them back with a pdf copy of the report? or do those fools think a report is not valid because it is in a forum and is not printed on letterhead paper in a nice report folder?

Also, while they are at it, please tell them to check the Digital to Analog Converter. DAC. I suspect that thing is busted... If that's not it, check stray capacitance and inductance too.

If it's a DAC embedded Texas Instrument microprocessor, give them hell and file a lawsuit.

i think there is nothing left to do for us else than waiting. as you can read the bug is known to t-mobile and reported to the manufacturer. so if the bug still will be fixed soon, everithing is fine. if not i'll change to SDA II music, which is announced for june in germany 8)

Does the TSSSS occur with the radio off (i.e. in Flight Mode)?

Bump.

Have there been any recent developments on this issue? Or has HTC/Orange/T-Mobile swept it under the carpet? :evil:

Oh my gosh I just listened to that sound file in the first post and the sound FREAKS ME OUT everytime!

I'm not so sure about wanting an Audiovox SMT5600 anymore. I originally wanted it for its MP3 playing capabilities.

I really wanted this phone for the mp3 also. My new Audiovox smt5600 has the tsss. bug and im thinking about exchanging and trying another smt5600. Is it possible that my next 5600 wont have the tsss bug???

just got back into smartphone (c500). im not too bothered about these issues because as with my previous one (e100), the battery isnt great if you want to use media player AND surf the net on it, ie, travelling on a day out. its ok for short commutes to work. for tunes, ipod is much better.
i have noticed the bad sound quality of the video audio, too. dont think it'll replace my other gadgets somehow!

With the C550 due next month, does anyone know if we will see the same problem with that one?
Are there any smartphones as good as this one but without this problem?

Hi guys,

I just read the topic that's here for some months now, and I see there is no fix for the bug....

Anyway... what about the properties and the "speed" of our mini SD cards? Any influence on the TSSS thing?

I have my second SDA Music now and in both of them the bug apperas more often when I use a large (512 MB or 1 GB) mini SD.....

It was just a tought.... :?:

Does anyone yet know if this problem is on the new C550? Someone needs to do some proper tests for this.

I've got the same error too. I listened the attachment you added and it's really annoying. It's only sometimes you don't hear it so well, but you know it's there. Let's hope for a fix really soon sad.gif
