I think a lot of adults could still hear it. I’m well over 20, and I can still hear that sound that the TV makes when the sound is muted. And what about people walking their dogs? They’d be annoyed by it too. Probably not good for the wildlife in the area either.

The silent feature on some phones work on only calling. When there is any text messages there will be a sound. Plus, its vibration, it still can be heard if it is vibrating against something.

Seems a bit pointless to me. Why don’t they just use the “silent mode” on the phone?

to clarify: its not like they’re acually sending the messages like “hi what are you doing after school” to eachother in this frequency

they are simply setting their ringtones (that use the fancier speaker in modern cellphones) to notify them of messages under the radar so addults cant hear that they may have just recieved a text message

you are thinking about the simple ear reciever part of a cellphone.. some cellphones can play full mp3s out of their speakers.. and many cellphones come with a wide range of different types of speakers

this is very possible..

In telephony, the usable voice frequency band ranges from approximately 300 Hz to 3400 Hz. The bandwidth allocated for a single voice-frequency transmission channel is usually 4 kHz…

…the vast majority (read: all) mobile phone speakers will top out between 8 – 12KHz which is perfect for voice and lowish quality recordings…therefore it is technicaly impossible to play a 20KHz sound on a mobile phone.

Do marketer’s use that frequency to send teen specific advertisments?
I’m sure that would be just wonderful.

Putting a piece of electrical or duct tape over the speaker of such a device will muffle the output dramatically. Tape also works well for door alarms.
