GSM phones that are too close to speakers that are not properly shielded to US Standards will make that annoying noise. I am an American living in the UK and my Vodafone does that all the time since I have American Speakers. If you dont like it get a CDMA phone you know Verizon or Sprint. Or just wait for LTE to come out.
so true... i hate that ticking sound... i actually have my phone and my hubbys phone sitting beside me and i had to check if it was our phone... then i figured out it was actually on the music video
What a cool video. Sad but true. I switched to ATT to get an iPhone. Now I have to deal with that annoying noise all the time. Thanks for bringing awareness to their knowledge of the issue. I think it's lame that they blow people off and make them pay a termination fee if becomes a problem. P.S., I'm glad you didn't take the stinkin' speakers.
No, they offered to buy him a speaker. I personally know the man who was a VP at AT&T at the time and he offered to buy him a set of speakers, but the guy turned down the offer. You can read more about it in a business week article on their website called Consumer Vigilantes. This guy's story is on page 3.
read on msnbc that the guy had his speakers on MAX volume when that happened. 1) This inerference happens with any cell phone carrier 2) Do you need to be warned? I don't think Cingulair should have to predict every possible problem for you and warn you about it. Next time don't have your set on max volume and that probably won't happen. Lame video, why should he deserve special treatment cause he set up his set to be blown out? I read the Execs bought him a speaker
I am still fighting ATT for a bill they say I owe from 1999. They have turned it over to a collection agency and when I called ATT they say since it has been so long they can not provide any paperwork. They are scumbags and I refuse to pay for service I never had.
Yes.. and this very phenom will also cause some corded land line phones to hang up while is a call and fry the keypad. I learned this lesson the hard way by losing the use of an RCA 2 line business phone. The store i bought it from would not exchange it.. so I bought another one and.... hehehehe u know :)
Weird, I never knew this was such an issue. I always know when I'm gonna get a call because my speakers make that same noise. They also pick up some CB-Radio transmissions too, so I always thought it was just me. Good to know!
Oh, and yeah, Cingular/AT&T sucks when you have their Samsung phones. I have a Motorola now and the service is much better now.
that is not cingular's fault. Those phones are Part 15 products under the FCC where as companies can get products marked that way so if interference happens like that it is up to the consumer to fix it, not the handset maker, in this case looks like Motorola
Dude, AT&T sucks almost as bad as Fox. Censoring Vetter was wrong just like censoring Ron Paul. Ron Paul deserves to debate and you deserve a new speaker!!!
yeah very arty animations! i like em. and sometimes the voice sounds like trent raznor's - don'T know if spelling is right(nine inch nails) exept the tuning ;)
this guy is an idiot his speaker level had to be very high for that noise to blow his speaker and it obviously had done it before so why set your phone next to speaker again IDIOT LOL i am glad your speaker blew
no you are the idiot. Why should you not be allowed to run your speakers at whatever volume you want , just because you happen to use cingular which is the only co. so far to send this rf frequency out when a call is picked up?
The guy works in the music and video field and happens to use his speakers, so what.If my amp sp[eaker blew for my guitar because of it I'd be even more pissed. Am I stupid for having it loud?
then why do you come back an watch the video. Cause ur a tool and can't get enough.....if u think its stupid....DON'T COME BACK....but tell ur friends about the video....
That was some funny shit. Holy crap that must have taken a lot of work, instead of just taking the low road and posting your costumer service calls. Great job.
lol, I used to work for Cingular and Nextel. They both do it because of the frequency on the 850/1900 and 1800/900 mhz. It does not destroy any equipment, but it is rather annoying. One good thing is that you get a warning before your phone goes off. ^^
dude, that noise is totally the cingular/att noise! i got the ringtone of the noise from yer site. thnx so much!
holy-killer-whale below, yer whacked if you think it's verizon.
man, i hate that noise. your vid is great. the iphone is gonna bite. screw att. they can keep their 2-year time-release non-3g $500 suppository and put it next to the lack of sunshine from the lying att costumer service reps.
this is soooo funny! great job! what is up with ATT blowing this guy off?! they should completely tell people about this problem. i can't believe it blew your speaker, that's so whacked. they can take their iphone and shove it up their apple.
Heard the interference in this vid and thought I left my cell phone on or somehow the interference was coming over my laptop now. Nearly gave me a heart attack. Why do we have such shitty cell service and phones here in the US anyway? It's much better in many other countries.
hahahahahaha so funny and true....hahahahahahahaha. when i first started the vid. I thought i was getting a call. I looked at my phone and nothing. haha good one. I like the evil jack.
Feeling Cingular? Oh yeah and you ARE BEING SPIED ON BY AT&T who is in with the Government..Yes, they are a part of the illegal spying going on in America. Do you honestly believe that is for terror? See my video on AT&T spying and see for yourself!
i love this video but i still you my very old cingular cingular blackjack

Ya that's noise is so true.
In our final exams the exam proctor had a GSM phone and it kept buzzing like that through the Gym speakers.
It was really distracting, and I don't think he realized it was him either. At least the speakers didn't blow up.

uhm.. yes it can destroy speakers. Yopu must not have been a tech if you worked there. Crank your speakers way up and try it. Go ahead.
Why do you think the video was made? because Cingular/ATT wouyldn't do a thing to reimburse the damages. Read about it at consumer reports.
