Does your phone ever pick up some channel and start broadcasting like your listening to a video?

Asked by RayaHope (7448points) December 11th, 2022

It’s some cooking show and I can’t even find where it’s coming from. It’s not on YouTube or any news channel. The only way I can turn it off is to turn off my phone, but then I can’t use my phone and won’t get any calls. :(

Not since we left analog behind.

Is it possible your finger slid up from the bottom and you selected the FM Radio app.? I have a Motorola Android and it’s located on my front screen next to the Moto app.

Try checking your phone settings. Sounds like bluetooth/wifi bleed.

Never had that happen on my land line.

I kinda did once in the 70s.
Something glitched with AT&T and you could talk to people in between busy beeps. Word spread pretty fast among us kids and you never knew who was gonna be “on the line.” To be sure it was very stilted “conversations.”

I have a News app that plays ads when I open up the app sometimes. Do you have any apps that are open ?

RayaHope's avatar

I did eliminate a couple apps and I don’t have the fm radio on my phone. I guess it doesn’t matter anyway since I’m getting a new phone in a couple days anyhow.
