anyway dont know if its normal but my wing didnt do this before, when i set my phone to vibrate sometimes the vibration makes this chirping sound...it's really annoying specially when i have it silent (just vibration)
anyone know what im talkin about?
(note is not a sound coming from the speakers it comes within the phone like the vibrating sound)
How about recording the sound with a microphone.. Then upload it here and we can hear the problem.
Just a thought
Yea I get it to !!!!! I thought it was just the part that vibrates..... vibrating on a piece of plastic inside. Hvnt took it apart to find out though.
Yes. I get it too. But since my phone is in the holster most of the time, that noise is dampened. I have started to ignore it
sound
have you guys dropped your phone before? cuz ive dropped mine about twice (forgot i had it on my lap when getting out of the car) im thinking thats why its making this noise...

That's not the noise he's referring to, the noise he is talking about only occurs when the buttons are hit. It's more of a software noise, something programmed into the ROM.

Stay with me now, I haven't seen anyone talk about this so this is either perfectly normal or something is wrong with my phone. I just got my phone today, but when you shake or lightly tap the top of the phone to your palm, the phone makes a noise as if something is lose inside, a rattle if you will.
To me it sounds like the internal weight that causes the phone to vibrate. I first noticed it simply setting the phone down on my desk this morning, and started trying to find ways to reproduce the noise (tapping to your palm works best)
What concerns me is that my G1 didn't make this noise, and i'm just wondering if everyone else's N1 does this. So if anyone can confirm my insanity, that would be great.
I can't say I am getting the same noise with my phone. (Thankfully)
I must say the biggest thing I **DON'T** miss is the SQUEEKY sounds my old G1 would make!!!!
No idea what youre talkin about

Hey, I totally know what you are talking about
Nothing is wrong with the phone Sounds like a normal plastic vibration. It is either the trackball or the accelerometer. Our it could be something else those are just my best guess.
As far as I am concerned it is just a little loose, but now that I think about it the headphone jack could be making the noise. That recedes into the phone body so requires a casing to insert the jack into the phone.
Nothing to be alarmed about.
Hrm, Well I can say its not the trackball (although that initially made the most sense!), I could still hear the noise wile holding the trackball. And I tried the same thing with headphones connected, and could still hear it. But, its reassuring that my phone isn't the only one doing this.
I get the same thing. Could be the vibra motor. like shaking a ps3 controller produces similar feedback of something moving around.

Yup, just wanted to make sure it was normal. I'm pretty sure this is accurate.
the rattle noise is most definatly the auto focus camera. It commonly affects the iPhone 3GS, it doesnt cause any problems, but if the rattle gets to you you can send it in if you so wish.

Hey, you are 100% correct!. I can hear it after when I have it snap pictures, exact same noise. I probably won't be able to stand it and will have it fixed/replaced. But that is most defiantly it.
i wouldnt exactly go sending it in.. this is normal.. mine does the same thing.. so does my mother's eris..
Mine does this as well and I too find it extremely annoying. Can anyone possibly confirm if they all do this and if it is normal or not?
Bump (10 char)
How anyone can find this extremely annoying is beyond me..
Stop using your phone as maracas I say.
My Nexus One just recently started doing this, I haven't dropped it or banged it against anything either. It happens when I open and close any app that uses the camera.

Lol those squeeks were so fregin annoying.
i have the same thing on HTC Desire
I have the same rattling noise. I even hear it when I have the haptic feedback on. Each vibration leads to this rattling/crackling noise. Super annoying.
indeed it's the camera. i especially notice it when using the barcode scanner app.
Is anyone else getting a very slight "processing-type" sound when on phone calls? It's hardly enough to notice and I only hear it when the other person and I are completely silent, but it's there. I was just wondering if it's only my phone or all of them. It's not really loud enough to complain about, just asking out of curiosity.
What does a processing-type sound, sound like?
Like your computer when it is processing something, or maybe when the hard drive is being read, though not as loud as either of those obviously since it's so small. It's hard to explain, but if you listen closely when no one is talking but a phone call is in progress, you should hear it.
Hard drives make clicking sounds.
The disks also make a slight "whirring" noise which is more of what I was referring to.
EDIT: I listened to it again and this doesn't really accurately describe it. It's very hard for me to explain and as I said it's so quiet that it's really a non-issue, just a curiosity I guess. If anyone else happens to notice it at some point, let me know, if not then no worries.
Ahhh. See now we are getting somewhere. I know what you're referring to. That's interference you're hearing most likely. Remember back when if you put your old GSM phone near some speakers you'd occasionally hear weird sounds kinda like a chirping and buzzing etc? You still get that nowadays but its not as profound. Its just a small whining sound. As long as you have a speaker and you have something emitting radiowaves near it, you will have speaker feedback
Oh I know that sound. If I put my phone near my speaker after sending a text or anything it does that. I would say it could possibly be a very quiet version of this, but to me it sounds like the sound is coming from the phone itself and not the speaker, but only when on a phone call. I'm not sure about that though and you may be right about it just being some sort of interference - could be that it's just fooling my ears into thinking it's not coming from the speaker since it doesn't fit in at all with the rest of the call.
I mean nothing else on the phone actually makes noise, aside from the small click that the power and volume keys make. You don't hear electricity or data moving through memory or the cpu etc...
I just got my Razr I (2 weeks) and just started today, when i'm talking in a call all the sound from the earpiece just sounds like static or crackling I almost don't understand what people are saying but if I put to loudspeaker the sound is normal, any Idea what that could be?
...had the same

Hi hportas,
I had the same with my first device.
When I first started to do a call I heard that noise.
I could even hear something when I shook it, like something is loose.
I suspected that the earpiece speaker was not mounted inside correctly, or something was loose and jumping around on the earpiece.
I went to the providers shop, showed the problem, and they directly replaced it with a new phone.
You might do the same.
It's most probably a hardware issue.
Good luck,
Matt
Hi there.
These day i noticed something strange about the phone when i'm making phonecalls.
The sound of the call speaker was a little low and i fell it vibrating on the back of the phone...
I put my ear on the back and i could hear the person clearly. It seems that the sound comes out not only in the right side.
When i press my finger on the back of the phone, the volume of the call seems to increase.
Nothing to bother really, but i wanna know if its normal...
thnaks!
Its absolutely normal ur feeling it bcos phone is made jam tight due to its..dust and water resistance...... So no worries enjoy d machine... Cheers
Thanks man. i tought it could be a problem in the isolation...
Hey guys. I dropped my Mi 5 while it was not in the case. Luckily everything is intact.
I just wanted to check, so I shook it, and there's a rattling sound that comes when I shake it perpendicular to the screen. Something might have been knocked loose, but I'm still hoping it's the OIS or something.
Secondly, when I put my ear close to the phone, I can hear the high pitched sounds you can hear from old routers which have those rapidly blinking LEDs. Or from multi way plugs which are of poor quality.
I didn't think to check these things before I'd dropped it, and now I can't.
Can you guys check?
I do hear some clicks when I shake it - sounds like something that's supposed to be a little loose, it's a very regular sound and I suspect you're right by suspecting it's the OIS.
No modem-like sounds though. At all. And my device is one week old in my hands, always in a case, never dropped.
@zoejo Thanks. Could you try putting your ear right up to the back of the phone, near the flash, as if you're listening to a call, but with the back facing you?
It's good to know the shaking is audible for your undamaged device. I thought it might be a ticking bomb, which could paralyse my phone at any time.

I never dropped the phone, and yes. To all your questions. But they are hard to hear.

I just did it, without the cover too. I hear absolutely nothing. I tried combos of Wi-Fi/4G on and off and also moved to the bathroom to avoid environment noise.
Just to add a bit more info, my "loose piece/shaking sound" sounds a lot like a ticking wrist watch (a bit faster or slower depending on how fast/slow I shake the phone).

Yes, that's exactly what it sounds like.
Well, maybe the damage from the phone dropping is what caused my router sounds. Or maybe I just have sensitive hearing.
Thanks, man.

Man I said I can hear it too, and I never dropped the phone, but it is intermittent for me, you cannot always hear that. Something like every 2/3 seconds.

I suppose the drop made it loose, more than it's supposed to be. Or it could be a minor manufacturing difference between units. Thanks.

Maybe. Although I hear them with and without a case/cover - a rubber case that pretty much locks them in place.
I might be wrong but it's irrelevant nonetheless - it seems to be normal, as your input confirms. Thanks.
i never dropped my phone and yes it does sound like old routers and when you shake it it's just the ois...
