I'm using a Griffin car charger and a good old Radio Shack 3.5mm cable. When I have them both plugged in simultaneously, I get a static. Anyone else have this issue or aware of any fixes?
 
Is the static all the time or just a short burst every once and a while?

If the later, that's just the gsm radio checking in with the cell tower. It also usually causes static right before you get a call as the gsm radio starts to make the connection.

Constant.
