Does anyone else's Diamond2 rattle at the top near the cemera? If I tap it it sounds as though there is something like a ball bearing inside. Could it be the g sensor?
Everything works OK though.

Yep, Mine is the same. I think the vibrate motor is in that area too so it could be that rattling.
Its the camera lens, HTC autofocus camera lenses move about a bit until the autofocus mechanism is active. Nothing to worry about, my kaiser and Touch HD did the same.
shuflie, you are correct, it does seem to be the autofocus camera lens that is rattling. When I take a picture in a quiet room I can hear the lens "bounce" back to its resting place after the shutter is released. This is the same noice I can hear when I tap the phone. I don't like hearing the phone rattling like that but I suppose I am pleased it's nothing to worry about.
The autofocus lens in my cruise was totally silent.
I also have this with my HTC Diamond. Nothing to worry about.

I recently noticed that my camera module makes rattles when I barely shake my phone. It almost sounds like there is something loose inside near the camera module. With the s pen out, it still rattles the same, so it's not the s pen.
Thanks.

That's the OIS Lens making that noise. All OIS camera lens do that until the camera is activated. Launch the camera app and you'll see the nose goes away. If it doesn't go away then the magnetic stabilizer is no longer functioning as it should. It should activate and hold the lens in place and modify the wave length strength it receives based on what the camera is focusing on.

Thank you. It's doesn't rattle with camera app opened.
I got my crystal pro on Sunday, overall really happy with it (will be even happier when I get .124 and the improved AOD!) but am noticing a very slight rattle when tapping on certain parts of the screen.
It only happens when I tap the top right part of the screen, it is very minor but is certainly not consistent with the rest of the display. It is the part of the screen that will be sitting adjacent to the rear cameras so maybe it is the camera mechanism? Probably normal but I am kind of OCD about this kind of stuff.
Anybody else noticing this on their pro?
Same here next to the cameras. I thought it's the OIS but my first p30 pro (display issues) didn't do that or i never noticed it!

I can confirm that it is there, and if you tap and listen closely, the sound is originating from the back, so it's most likely the OIS in the cameras.
But it isn't an issue for me, as you have to use some force while tapping it to hear that rattle, using the phone normally with slight taps like I use every other touchscreen device, I can't hear any rattling sound whatsoever.
Today i noticed something strange, when the camera app is started you hear a noise like a little fan spinning in the back of your p30. Put your ear near the camera lenses and ket me know
Yep, lol.
It probably has something to do with the OIS.
It's been two days since I started using this phone.
Today, I can hear an excessive sound coming either from the camera lens or the front speaker. {Noise heard better from front side of the phone}
This happens when you try to shake or flip the phone even gently. I know usually the camera lens on every phone makes a little noise.
But this is extreme. It's almost like there's a tiny piece of hardware broken inside and it's moving even if you shake the phone gently. I either did not observe this issue or it wasn't there for the first two days.
Can anyone confirm if it's the same?

Yes, even in mine there is a kind of muffled noise
Hi guys.
It's from the cameras. If you try this with the camera app open you will see that the noise stops.
Optical Image Stabilisation most likely. Camera lens can move to handle shake.
I don't hear anything noticeable from mine. Just a VERY slight muffled noise if I shake it while holding the lenses right up to my ear, but nothing I would notice if I wasn't specifically trying to find a noise.
So by complete accident I noticed that whenever I shake my 11 Ultra, a strong rattling sound comes from the top portion of the phone, like there's something loose inside. After a bit of testing I assumed it's the OIS from the wide angle, since whenever that camera is used, and the OIS kicks in, the sound when shaken becomes very small. But anyways, is this normal?
This may sound like a strange request, but please, could you people shake your device and give a feedback here to know if it's just my unit?
It’s normal.
Ah ah by accident too, i noticed the same few days ago.
And when i change camera lens in pro mode, i have a little sound similary as haptic.
That's reassuring, i am not the only one. But why we have this thing ?
It's the camera and OIS. It's normal.

It’s the stabilization module inside the camera shaking. It’s a moving part so it’s basically floating when you’re not using it. When you shake the phone you make it move inside the camera, thus the rattling noise.
And obviously, it’s for stabilizing the camera when you’re moving so you don’t get the blur effect.
Thank you guys for your feedback, good to know that it's normal. Have a nice day everyone!
