Just got a Galaxy Nexus GSM version. I have very noticeable static with voice phone calls using a headset connected to the headphone jack. Has anyone else noticed this?

I can hear faint static with the bluetooth, speaker phone and standard phone speaker.

My nexus s sounds perfect with headset with calls.

Is this normal for galaxy nexus? Anyway to reduce and correct the problem? I did search but could not find anything expect folks complaining static when playing music. I have faint static with playing music but with calls it is very loud.


Thanks

Tried with screen on and screen off - absolutely no change in static level with headset when making calls. Static is very low with music or bluetooth, I have to concentrate to hear it. If anyone else out there with a headset, could you try using a headset and check for static when making calls. Thanks.

I guess I will send this unit back before my return windows closes. Should I get another unit?

Coming from a samsung nexus s, this static is not acceptable for me. With the nexus s and voodoo sound control the audio quality is amazing. I was hoping for better with galaxy nexus.

Thanks
