Background Static

Hello,

I just received a Bold 9900 from At&t. Love the phone but when on a call there is some background static. I've not had this problem with any other phone. Any recommendations? Thanks!

Update OS...
and it still persist, talk to ATT about it.
May be earphone problem

How loud is the static? Do you only hear it when you are in a very quiet room? Or can you even hear it when you are out and about talking on the phone while on the street or in a busy room?

I hear it more prominently when in a quite area but it's always noticeable. The static only comes through when someone else is speaking.

Odd, okay then it's not what I'm thinking. I don't experience that problem. Maybe try changing your mobile network settings to experiment with how it might affect the static, like change it so that it locks to 2G instead of 3G (or H+, etc).

First things first, update your OS.
