well, i asked for it a long time ago, long before the buzz was fully identified. the answer i got was to try a ferrite bead around the headset's wire, which did not help at all. then the the buzz issue gained a lot of momentum, but nobody ever mentioned it to be different from the buzz with the wired hs -- so i simply assumed it to be the same issue and thus to be fixed with the sop available. > from somebody in the community who suggested that people bring their FR > to a local show and they get somebody to fix phones.
