I WANT TO TURN IT OFF!!! HELP!! your going to tell me that Apple didnt test for this??? This constant feedback?? Its a damn phone that needs to be connected to a computer!

it is EDGE network signal interfering with the cross-over signal from your speakers.

All phones do that. My last one would even transmit the sound through my car stereo.

None of my other phones EVER did this! Edge is killing me!!! i am going nuts!!!
- Motorola and Nokia (non 3g) were my last two phones. Both did it, it drove me crazy.kona
- it seems like a small thing but people dont realize how nuts it can make you! Speaker companies line up! first to design a set without the feedback wins!chaimelimeliah

yup all phones I've had have made that noise ... so relax take a chill pill ... the best part is having the psychic factor ... when my phone is near the television set it makes the picture ripple and then I go "phone is gonna ring in 2 ... 1..." and then ring ring .... my friend is like WTF?

turning your phone off is not an option... especially since i need to stare it its pretty screen every so often in order to re-affirm my nerdness...
- iPhones aren't really that nerdy.
And I meant, turn it off at night.detritus - will it still charge? im telling you it is awful!chaimelimeliah

but seriously... could apple have overlooked this design flaw? Can edge be turned off?
- you are a "interactive multimedia director" and can honestly ask this question? ffsmadirish

where have you been and what phones have you been using?? ALL phones do that. It's not an edge or no edge thing, it's just mobile phone frequency. Sure, some more than others but it's a fact of life Live with it. Easy solution: turn OFF your speakers!
- my Razor did the same thingRamanisky2
- turn off my speakers... im an interactive multimedia director, how the hell am i supposed to hear shit??chaimelimeliah
- you could try using some headphones and see if you still get that noise through them, for startersmenos
- creative-0
If it bothers you that much, move it away from the frickin speakers!
- yeah, it's not rocket science!!menos
- regardless of how far it is from the speakers as long as im in my office i get the noisechaimelimeliah
