First of all,Sorry if this thread had been covered elsewhere.. Been using my xperia z for few months now and just yesterday I been using my phone to take pictures for the whole day. I notice that my phone start to have a click sound when my phone zooming either in or out. I have made my phone silence of its camera sound but it seem like the sound was not from the speaker but from the back of the phone. As if there is something hitting the back glass of the phone. Note: it was hot yesterday, my xperia z was in my tough case by casemate, and phone was hanging at my neck the whole time. Beforehand it never had any sound but now it does and sometimes occasionally happen. Do u guys facing the same problem? And what might be the reason for the click soubd? Should I be worried?
Thanks all

I've got the same problem. Is it normal?
Mine does it aswell.... my guess is that the sounds comes from the lens when stabilizing/focusing the picture

I was thinking the same but then when I try to detect the sound it comes from the back panel that is located near to the len.. So as for the lens stabilizing or focusing it at the lens and not the back panel. I hope this is not a problem that may cause malfunctions to the device..:crying: maybe im not hearing it properly of the sound location..

hehe couldn't resist to test it hahaha, but i read here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr7q6SbX8Do
that it takes a good hour to get the normal volume back... so i think it's normal
Well, after more than a half hour my volume got back.... so people who get this same problem, i think it has to do with some protection. The speaker have to be dry to get the normal volume back

Pre ordered from Hi (Netherlands) and got it yesterday
30m to an 1hour and the loudspeaker will be fine, the same thing happened my Xperia Z . Its a protection " Thing "
I expect this question to appear on forums everywhere as more people get this phone and try it out in water.
I must be too old and remember when everyone had a waterproof radio for the shower (as they were advertised everywhere as the perfect gadget gift idea).. Which was fine until water got on the speaker and it got all muffled. Same thing with the XZ! And perhaps why we don't all have radios in the shower anymore!

Whoops Ive called up three to exchange my Xperia Z as I thought it had developed a volume fault.
I also peeled of the screen protector as the operator had asked are you sure the screen protector plastic is still attached ?
Doooh
Now the question is to fit or not fit the new supplied screen protectors that came with in the box ??
The screen looks so much sharper and clearer without it.

It just happened to me. You know what I did? Placed the Z's speaker against my notebook's fan, like 10 cm away. In less than 10 mins I received a notification and the volume was high again! So I guess blowing it with hot air does the trick..
I have just ordered myself a c6603 model (UK) and was worried because my bro said that the z has speaker probs but now I have read this thread I am not worried anymore. It does make sense to lower the speaker volume when in water because if you think about it, when the speaker is on it vibrates causing pressure variation so in theory it could suck in water through the protective mesh at full volume. But my acro s doesn't lower the volume when under water or wet and its OK, strange how the z seems to need a little extra protection from water but then again it is an expensive device I suppose.

I had the same Issue, I read on a Forum this is normal after 1-2 Hours all Water was gone from the Speaker side and the Sound returned to the normal!
Guys, does it interfere the headset sound?
I mean, when my Z gets in the water, for about 1 hour I have both the loudspeaker and the earphones working with a very low volume...
Hey guys!
Just noticed on my Xperia Z, that if I tap with my finger on the upper third (on the back) it sounds like something is loose on the inside. Is that normal? What could it be? Antenna? Sensors?
Btw, it makes it only while tapping on it....not when I shake it like crazy.

On a different forum, a user confirmed that his Xperia Z makes the same noise. While other start to post that theirs doesn't. Could be something normal than. Anyone any idea what it could be? Anyone here that could try it on his Xperia Z?
Sounds like the auto focus to me. Nothing to worry about if so.

Cheers for that! Was kinda worried because wasn't looking forward to get it replaced already
I think its something to do with the nfc connectors, my blackberry z10 does the same noise when taped and when I take back cover off it stops and you can see the connectors of the nfc. And if u tap them it makes the same noise.

Found this video which might shed a light if the noise comes from the nfc connector or the camera

At 04:39 it shows it a bit closer the inside. Small but at least very sharp
Just tapped mine & nothing.
It's a common observation across all xperia z units that I've handled thus far so I don't see it to be of any cause of concern yea I've had other phones making rattling noises when being shaked/waved/tapped, my xperia x1 exhibited maracas-like abilities which were attributed to it's vibrator
You mean common as in some devices making that sound and other ones not? Just been to the T-mobile store and we tested it on a Xperia Z they had on display. It did the same sound when tapped on the back
Yes, it isn't a manufacturing defect. Whilst tapping on the front or back (especially towards the upper area of the phone), you'd hear a higher pitched 'tick' sound in addition to the tapping sound, but it's pretty subtle actually on all xperia zs that I've used this far..

Thanks for confirming that. Any chance that you know if it's coming from the camera or the NFC? Just being curious seen that everything works as it's supposed.
And no wonder they start to be sold out in different countries! You have them
You work for Sony or how come that you have used that many Xperia Z
Has anyone else encountered a rattling and/or ticking noise when they place their HTC One onto a firm surface (e.g. wooden table)?
It's quite easy to recreate by tapping the back of the phone - on the top half, near the camera - with your knuckle.
Possible causes: autofocus module, OIS, sim tray
I'd be very grateful to find out if anyone else has experienced the same, as I'm trying to work out whether it's just my phone or if it's normal!
Thank you!
It's the camera module as always, like u said autofocus module and there is a mechanical gyroscope element in the camera, your device is normal
Don't OCD
Yep, same problem here

I have the same rattle coming from the camera lens area. Easy to hear if you tap the top back edge of the phone. Seriously rattles hard when the phone vibrates, which if it is the focus I imagine can't be good for it. It also makes it sound a bit cheap with the rattle on vibrate as it's easily noticeable.
I was tossing and turning whether I should exchange it after setting the phone up for 2 days but looking around forums it seems like a common problem not limited to the HTC One. Great phone otherwise.

Mine does the same. Its the only issue I have with this phone, otherwise its an amazing phone. I have two friends in work with the same phone so I'm going ot see if they have the same issue too. Seems its on all of them so far so I wont do anything about it until I hear of a repair down the line.

Every phone will rattle due to the auto focus. This is brought up every year and is a non issue .

Hi guys!
I just got my HTC one about a month ago, recently I found that there's a weird vibrate sound every time I put my phone on a hard surface "gently". It sounds like there's something loose inside the phone. So I tried tapping the upper part of the back plate on my palm and I heard that sound every time I did it. But when I tried it with the bottom part of the back plate, it just sounded like a solid piece of metal. I always baby my phones, this phone has never been dropped, smacked or anything. The weird thing is that I asked my friend who has an HTC one to test it and he told me his had that weird sound too. I'm just wondering if this is normal? Or it's just me and my friend are so unlucky. The sound really makes my phone like a piece of junk that's gonna fall apart soon. Could some HTC one owners try what I did and see if yous have the same issue please?
I'm gonna contact my carrier Rogers tomorrow but I have a really bad feeling about this. I don't wanna have my phone sent for repair because it's only 1 month old and I don't want a refurbished one either. God, tomorrow is the 30th day since I got this phone. I guess I better do something soon. Has anyone had any return/exchange/repair phone experience with Rogers?
sorry about my poor English cuz it's not my first language.
thank you so much guys!!
Mine clicks a little too. Probably just the flash touching the housing or something similar. Wouldn't worry about it as long as everything works.

It's the camera sensor optics. Nothing to be worried about.

Yup. Since the phone has optical image stabilizer, it will surely have movable parts in the camera module, this is normal. Same is true for Canon lenses with IS.
Hey all, It's a strange situation, but I just noticed that my phone rattles... By saying that I mean there is sound of some loose component from the inside while gently moving/shaking the phone.
Probably it wasn't the case since day 1 because I would notice it earlier during phone call or something.
Important facts:
1. I did not drop my phone (it's less than two weeks in my hands)
2. The noise do not come from buttons / lenses
3. It looks like everything is working, but this sound isn't optimistic.

Should I be worried? I never had such situation with any phone.

That's your camera rattling. It happens in almost all phones with optically stabilized cameras. Mine has it too. Don't worry, it's normal.

Shake, rattle and roll... seems oddly appropriate for a camera
Canon L lens make all kinds of cool little sounds. It's when they stop that you have to be concerned...
Thanks for answers, I feel kinda stupid I even tried to "shake" S20+ and some sound is also present (much quieter). Anyways I'll watch football game today with my friend which have S21U too, he won't stop me to shake his unit I have to be sure!
