    My Android phone is 3G/UMTS. Funnily, today it seems my mobile operator has gone for a nap, so my phone is roaming. Nothing to worry about, except that I keep hearing those typical "cellphone" noises in my PC's speakers. It never happened before. Very odd. Is it normal or should I prepare to throw everything away? :-D

      Firstly, don your TinFoilHelmet to protect yourself from Spurious Emmissions, then put it (carefully) in a lead lined Jiffy bag and post it to me. Quick! Before it explodes!

            Mine does this [the noises] all the time. I now put my phone on a shelf behind me, and on its side and point it to minimise surface area in view of the speakers. No noise :)

                      That noise normally happens when using 900MHz frequency (O2 and Vodafone in UK). Annoying but nothing to worry about.
