Update: Part 3 released! th-cam.com/video/bD1cgeKNL7I/w-d-xo.html Copying FAQ from part 1: "How did you record 2G?/3G?": I am in Canada and Rogers still has a 2G GSM/EDGE network and 3G UMTS/HSPA+ network. 850MHz only, 1900MHz shut down in 2021. "It's GSM!/UMTS!": In Canada, we have long used the GSM EDGE standard and WCDMA standard which has been upgraded overtime to support UMTS, HSPA, and HSPA+ meaning yes, my 2G is GSM/EDGE my 3G is UMTS/HSPA+. I am on the CITYFONE carrier which is a subsidiary of Rogers. Look up more about CITYFONE and Rogers wireless if you want exact network details. "How do you record these sounds?": Go to part 1 of this and look through the comments, I've already replied to this question multiple times there. "What about 4G?": 4G is the same as LTE. To explain the history behind it, when 4G originally came out, the first few releases did not meet the standard criteria of being a "4G" network, so LTE short for "Long Term Evolution" was made to fill in the gap between 3G and the original goal of 4G. Since then the criteria has been changed to a point where 4G could be considered any network with significant performance and technical improvements over third generation networks (3G). Nowadays the terms LTE and 4G are often interchangeable and "4G" is also typically used when phones are set to a language other than English. "What about 5G?": I do not have 5G yet. Though CITYFONE is a subsidiary of Rogers which has a 5G SA network, CITYFONE has no 5G plans yet probably due to Rogers not allowing them to use the network. I cannot control this and I'm not planning to switch to another carrier, so either I'll have to wait to get 5G, or get one of my friends who has 5G service to collaborate with me, both of which will take time. "Can I use this in my ___?": Yes, although I did record these sounds and could say others aren't allowed to use them, I think saying I own the sounds of radio interference would be a little silly, no?
@@MrFiver1111oh my god that's so perfect. Imagine inside your phone there's a miniature chicken with headphones hearing those sounds and sending others back hitting a button with its beak
i like how in part 1 and 2 3G was kinda the most silent one, like they did some magic to make it not interfere with radio signals that you can hear with a speaker
Yeah, I personally think it's because 3G came out in a time where those radio frequencies were still somewhat in use and considering people learned the kind of interference 2G put out, they probably designed 3G to be less disruptive. But with things like analog television shutting down in the US and Canada and them mostly just shutting down old frequencies to make space for LTE and 5G instead of having them coexist made them not care as much about the interference as time went on as there was not much of a reason to.
2G technology used time division multiple access, so the radio would turn on and off multiple times per second, allowing multiple users on the same channel by allocating specific transmission times for each user. This creates rapid and large changes in amplitude multiple times per second. Any device sensitive to changes in amplitude would pick up this interference. 3G technology used code division multiple access, which, when sending data, would generally transmit continuously. Multiple users could transmit simultaneously and the cell tower could differentiate each user based on the spreading code. This generally eliminates the audible amplitude changes. 4G technology’s uplink uses SC-FDMA, which creates clicking and popping because each user is given a time slot to transmit on, similar to TDMA.
That little skipping tone on the 2G receiving text is great. I would hear it so often I always picked up my phone in anticipation of the text arriving in the next few seconds.
My sister's phone when I was a kid used to receive text messages and it was that exact sound (2g sending/receiving text messages) that played at the speakers right next to her phone, before her phone went off. I found that fascinating.
Ahh yes the 2G sounds are very nostalgic for me as well! Anyone remember that AT&T's 2G network was called the "Edge" network and there was an "E" on the original iPhone next to the cell strength bars to let you know when you had data capability?
Anyone remember? Its still a thing, my phone show to what i am conected and if there is not 5g lte 4g or 3g available there is only E on lot of places and it is extreme slow
AT&T probably used "Edge" in their branding because they were the first US carrier to deploy a "2.75G" EDGE (Enhanced Data rates for Gsm Evolution) capability on their network. It's still around in places where 2G networks are available, which is a decent chunk of the world. EDGE replaced GPRS (General Packet Radio Service) which in turn was designed to replace GSM's original dial-up facilities.
I remember being a teen and using my iPod nano with the camera to record my room because my sister was stealing my stuff, and whenever I would watch the playback, I could hear the 2G text message sending noises. I always wondered what that was, I figured it was something internal to the iPod
I love these kind of videos. I love hearing the signal of various radio signals. You should keep uploading these sorts of videos but add visualizations along with the audio (maybe on a spectrogram). I could watch 1000 of these!
Now, all someone has to do is make a BT car headunit which plays these old 2G sounds for incoming calls / texts. That way we're always reminded of where our radio tech came from.😂
0:22 that 2g noise is new for me! Must be some of the newest 2G they had back then. Our GSM here sounded like constant high pich drrrrrrrrrr you get in the beginning, constant.
this is unbeleivibly awesome, thankyou so much for putting this onto youtube. Garbled digital sounds are awesome. -- is it ok if i use some of these sounds in a track and credit you??

The reason the interference for GSM sounds different on your 2 phones is likely due to the codec being used, not the phone itself. The adaptive rate or half rate codec sounds more intermittent, and the full rate codec sounds more constant. I notice both sounds on my phone because i am between 2 cells and one currently has full rate disabled in preparation for the 2G T-Mobile shutdown happening in September in the US.
I make electronic music and I looove learning about data-based sounds like these. Would you be okay with people sampling these videos for other purposes, with credit? If not I totally get it, thanks for your archival work!
Its like in the calling one, the "bi bip bi bip bi bip" is like trying to find the phone it needs to connect to, and once its connected it then does the "biriririririririririri", as in sending the info to the reciever to pick up the phone. Once its answered it then transfers the audio information needed and after hanging up its like the reciever is sending information about the call to the sender (or vice versa idk)
The last part I'm not sure about but most of this is pretty accurate from what I've heard. With 3G and 2G calling which are both circuit switched networks for calls, the phones create a connection between each other which lasts throughout the duration of the call and once the call ends, the connection is destroyed.
As many other people said, all you need is a phone and some kind of audio equipment that's susceptible to the RF interference. That can be any speakers or headphones that don't have sufficient shielding against it, wireless audio devices that are sensitive to interference, guitar amps, custom made devices to capture the interference, etc. Then you will need a way to record it, in my case I used an old cheap speaker that has a headphone jack and could hear the interference, I plugged the headphone jack into my PC and recorded the sound through there, although you can use anything you want to record it, even just putting a mic by the speaker or headphones. As for the receiving call sounds, you will need a separate phone or some way to call the phone you want to record the sound from. In short, all you need is an audio device that's susceptible to RF interference, then put the phone you want to record the sound from near it, and a way to record the sound. And as for the recieveing call sounds, a way to call the phone.
the electronics in these older speaker systems and with all electronic devices are designed to be in part with part 15 of the FCC rules. And i quote: "this device complies with part 15 of the FCC rules. 1. That this device must not emit harmful interference and 2. this device must accept interference including interference that may cause undesired operation" so those old and still working speakers had electronics that got the radio signals and emitted the sounds that you recorded. so with that being said, the speakers surely did what they were supposed to do and that was receive the radio signals from the phones. newer speakers have the isolation or filters put in to eliminate that sounds compared to like the early 2000s speakers as they used old but still valid and good electronics.
As of you commenting this, I am on a new carrier with VoLTE and will be making updated videos with it at some point. Although on the carrier I was on before (CITYFONE) they use the Rogers network and Rogers does not allow CITYFONE to use their VoLTE or RCS networks. The way Rogers says it is "We don't want CITYFONE's feature set to be too similar to ours." the way I'll say it is that Rogers is greedy so they don't allow CITYFONE to use those services.
If my mom's phone is on the laptop, sometimes LTE sounds at part 1, sometimes 5GHz WI-FI sounds are coming my headphones but there is no WI-FI connection. 😂 Phone is Blackview.
I'm actually not 100% sure the reason for this, although I will say it's probably due to the fact that 3G and 2G actually have two separate networks for calling, being packet switched for data and circuit switched for phone calls. In the case of 2G GSM, you actually can't use data while in a call, meaning once the call ends, you're basically reconnecting to the data network. With 3G you can use data while in a call, although I think you still are momentarily disconnecting from a network when ending a call.
@@qwertykeyboard5901the most common kind of SDR is a TV tuner with hacked firmware... It's not blocked, but it's way out of its normal frequency so you hear it pretty distorted. Generally receiving isn't illegal though, transmitting or decrypting encrypted data you receive for your benefit is (such as watching pay tv without paying)... If transmitting on LTE frequencies was illegal we wouldn't have phones and I wouldn't be able to send this comment though, there only are legal limita on how much power you can transmit at and for how long
I can't say specifically for 3G and 4G, but to pick the interference of these radio signals in general, all you need is an audio device without sufficient shielding. This can be anything from speakers, to headphones, to a guitar amp, pretty much anything can work as long as it can pick it up the signals and/or is not shielded from them.
I am actually planning to do it soon. I've been waiting on getting one piece of equipment back from a friend that I need to record a few of the sounds on the go, as I want to be able to get some of the different frequinces of 5G.
Like I said in the first part, I use a cheap old speaker of mine that is sensitive to RF interference and has a headphone jack. I then put whatever device I wanna capture the sound from, such as my phones for the cellular and WiFi sounds, and my Bluetooth devices for the other sounds near that speaker and record the sound from the speaker into my PC using that headphone jack and an audio cable.
You can't really decode the texts simply from the interference audio alone. The audio is simply interference caused by the signal, it's not really the data the phone is recieveing. Think of it like the audio equivalent of static on a TV set when another signal interferes, it doesn't really contain any data, it's just the sound of another signal interfering with the audio device.
Although with how old and insecure 2G is now, there are other ways to decode 2G data, although I don't know these methods and wouldn't be able to discuss them anyway as they wouldn't be legal. 😂
You have a Pixel 7 but you don’t have 5G? How does that work? My dad has 5g on the Pixel 6a… Also pretty sure every carrier uses VoLTE now in America… 3G doesn’t exist anymore been a year and a half, use to have rock solid data everywhere, now there are Data dead zones everywhere where it was 3G even though I have 4 bars of LTE and can make calls no issue.
A: Because my carrier doesn't support 5G and even if they did I may have to pay more to upgrade to a 5G plan. In short, my phone supports it, but it's disallowed by the carrier. B: I am not in America, I am in Canada. In Canada they still have 3G, and Rogers still has 2G as well. Not all carriers here support VoLTE either. Our 3G shutdown is planned for December 2025, and I'm unsure about Rogers' 2G network, as they are the last to support it but it will probably follow soon after. Rogers has also already shutdown 1900MHz 2G and 3G as of 2021, leaving only 850MHz.
@@raiacad0564 Ahh, not America, guess that makes sense. Every carrier here has rushed 5g coverage to the point that 4G coverage wasn’t patched to fill the 3G void, everyone is just expected to upgrade to a new 5g phone if they have an issue with their current coverage. XD
@@Trainboy1EJR I see. That may explain why you're still able to make VoLTE calls in areas where you have data dead zones. They probably prioritized that as VoNR/Vo5G (5G's voice network) is still under development and not widely released yet, so VoLTE service is basically all you would have for calls.
@@raiacad0564 My understanding is that they use separate 4G bands for VoLTE and general data. And that single band for VoLTE is what the 4G LTE coverage map is based on. Which is the only thing that would make sense for 4 bars LTE, no issues with phone calls, but unable to use google maps because “no data” in those areas.
@@raiacad0564I had no idea Rogers still supports 2G. The 3G shutdown is definitely going to be a bummer for some of my older dumbphones that don't have 4G, and the fact that my MVNO (Lucky Mobile) relies on 3G.

This can be anything from speakers, to headphones, to a guitar amp, pretty much anything can work as long as it can pick it up the signals and/or is not shielded from them.
we require a part 3
yeah
One year from now
Yess
what about 4g?
exactly man
same as lte

Can you do 5G now ?
I am actually planning to do it soon. I've been waiting on getting one piece of equipment back from a friend that I need to record a few of the sounds on the go, as I want to be able to get some of the different frequinces of 5G.
@@raiacad0564 Awesome !!!
2g is based
First one sounds like an NES glitching out.
i have a Pixel 6
how do you do this
Like I said in the first part, I use a cheap old speaker of mine that is sensitive to RF interference and has a headphone jack. I then put whatever device I wanna capture the sound from, such as my phones for the cellular and WiFi sounds, and my Bluetooth devices for the other sounds near that speaker and record the sound from the speaker into my PC using that headphone jack and an audio cable.
Oh, and also, about the receiving a call sounds, I have a landline phone that I used to call my cell phone to get those recordings.
ohh ok i got it
I have 5gE
Ok, i’ll never use 2,4GHz WiFi again. That actually sounds dangerous😳
So today I learned that the shit noise my speakers make are actually 2g texts. Is there a way to decode these and read the data?
With the phone yes because the data is specifically encrypted for that phone it’s going to. It’s for privacy reasons.
You can't really decode the texts simply from the interference audio alone. The audio is simply interference caused by the signal, it's not really the data the phone is recieveing. Think of it like the audio equivalent of static on a TV set when another signal interferes, it doesn't really contain any data, it's just the sound of another signal interfering with the audio device.
Although with how old and insecure 2G is now, there are other ways to decode 2G data, although I don't know these methods and wouldn't be able to discuss them anyway as they wouldn't be legal. 😂
You have a Pixel 7 but you don’t have 5G? How does that work? My dad has 5g on the Pixel 6a… Also pretty sure every carrier uses VoLTE now in America… 3G doesn’t exist anymore been a year and a half, use to have rock solid data everywhere, now there are Data dead zones everywhere where it was 3G even though I have 4 bars of LTE and can make calls no issue.
A: Because my carrier doesn't support 5G and even if they did I may have to pay more to upgrade to a 5G plan. In short, my phone supports it, but it's disallowed by the carrier.
B: I am not in America, I am in Canada. In Canada they still have 3G, and Rogers still has 2G as well. Not all carriers here support VoLTE either. Our 3G shutdown is planned for December 2025, and I'm unsure about Rogers' 2G network, as they are the last to support it but it will probably follow soon after. Rogers has also already shutdown 1900MHz 2G and 3G as of 2021, leaving only 850MHz.
@@raiacad0564 Ahh, not America, guess that makes sense. Every carrier here has rushed 5g coverage to the point that 4G coverage wasn’t patched to fill the 3G void, everyone is just expected to upgrade to a new 5g phone if they have an issue with their current coverage. XD
@@Trainboy1EJR I see. That may explain why you're still able to make VoLTE calls in areas where you have data dead zones. They probably prioritized that as VoNR/Vo5G (5G's voice network) is still under development and not widely released yet, so VoLTE service is basically all you would have for calls.
@@raiacad0564 My understanding is that they use separate 4G bands for VoLTE and general data. And that single band for VoLTE is what the 4G LTE coverage map is based on. Which is the only thing that would make sense for 4 bars LTE, no issues with phone calls, but unable to use google maps because “no data” in those areas.
@@raiacad0564I had no idea Rogers still supports 2G. The 3G shutdown is definitely going to be a bummer for some of my older dumbphones that don't have 4G, and the fact that my MVNO (Lucky Mobile) relies on 3G.
