Is anyone getting these slight clicking noise from the speaker whenever the phone is in use, like opening an app for example. I got my phone phone from the launch event (5th in line!! ) and i only noticed when it was really quiet in my room these noises came from the speakers.
To check, open an app and quickly put your ear to the speaker and I hear a hissing noise then a soft click. Always happens when i open an app!
I went back to Phones4U, the guy could tell it was faulty so I got it replaced..now same problem!! (not as loud as before, but still there)
Anyone having the same problem? can anyone check for me? this can't be normal!

Yeah I have that problem. It's one of those things that you don't really notice until you know it's there, then you hear it all the time
Someone on another forum posted they had the same, so it might not be an isolated problem.
Isn't that just the touch click?
Try Settings/Sound/Touch sounds.
Personally I rather like it..

No, I have that turned off.
It happens whenever the speaker is used - when the sound stops there is a quiet hiss, followed by a pop as the speaker switches off.
Try it - hold the speaker right up to your ear, and use the volume rocker to hear the beep. Afterwards there is hiss followed by a pop.
It's not noticeable enough to be an issue (for me) in normal use, but you can hear it if you're in a quiet room.

The click comes like 3 seconds after you make an input, so it doesn't sound right and it just sounds random (and annoying).
thanks tho!
Edit: Turning off Touch sounds, seems to stop it, whenever im using the phone..but yeah still happens whenever the speaker is in use but that i can live with that!

Happens with my OG Droid. I only started noticing it one late night when for no reason I had the speaker right up next to my ear.
I don't think it's anything to worry about

Heh, that's certainly got something to do with it
As I say it's not really an issue, and it's not unique to this phone (as you point out). Just one of those annoying niggles - it depends on how sensitive you are to these things
Yes - I have the same problem with my new Galaxy Nexus. In fact, even if it's not a problem for most people, I'd say it is a problem for Samsung because I returned my phone yesterday and got it swapped out. The new one has the same problem, so I assume it's an Android software problem rather than a hardware glitch.
So that's at least two returns caused by this problem. Hope we get a fix at some point!
p.s. Phone is great by the way, even with the annoying click.
Guys
This is hardware problem. And it happens on most of the speakers however its more or less noticeable on some devices.
I have quite good quality monitors (studio speakers) and i can hear something hissing in the back.
Let me put it that way.
Every speaker needs electricity to work. The noise you are hearing is the actual electric current coming through the speakers. The sudden pop and lack of the hiss means that speaker has been turned off. For obvious reasons there is no point for the speaker to work constantly....

I can't hear any click when I plug headphones in, so maybe you're right - the click could be when the amplifier that powers the internal speaker turns off...
However, for some reason I still get a click if the phone is in silent mode. I guess putting it in silent mode doesn't guarantee it keeps the amplifier turned off.
I hope it's just the speakers; the DAC in my HD2 hissed for a few seconds after any sounds even through my headphones. The hissing was always there when there was sound. It was quite depressing. I'm hoping for a good DAC in the Galaxy nexus.
I've got a click (sounds just like a quite speaker pop) from the back cover.
Turn your GN over and push the back cover, on the "Google" logo (below the camera flash). Then quickly release your finger.
Sometime it can happen with only the lightest of touches. If i put my phone down on my chest, the pick it up.
If you look really closely you can see the cover moving just below the camera surround.
Issue has been reported to google.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22307
I have this issue on my gnex. Its def a sw problem. I took the back cover off and still have the issue.
slightly different, but also hiss related...
my rezound does the same thing when headphones(or aux to car) are plugged in and nothing is playing. once you start to play something you don't notice it. and its a confirmed issue.
It's a hardware issue guys, depends on the audio chip I believe. Impedance-related.
Here is the other thread with this annoying sound

It isn't just on the speaker either. Atleast on my Galaxy Nexus, I can hear it when listening on high end professional in-ear headphones. I can verify that it is almost certainly a signal isolation problem. The activity causes the DAC (the thing that makes a digital signal into an analog signal that speakers and headphones need) to kick on for a few seconds and until it shuts off you can hear the noise coming out of the DAC. It's pretty substantial on mine though, so I'm wondering if I got a bad unit. I'll have to stop by a Verizon Wireless store and plug in to the display unit to see if it is any better. I never noticed this on my Galaxy S (Fascinate).
My unit is also affected, it was made in Vietnam. I checked the Google Code issue tracker link (http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=22307) and I can see many people confirming this also. This is definitely not how the speaker should work - I checked another Samsung phone (SGS II) and there's no such "clicks". There's some silent noise but not the click.
I can hear it from the speaker only, not through the headphones.
I think many users are unaware of the issue because it is often only noticeable in a silent environment.
Yes getting same issue. Have tried different ROMS to no avail
i'll do somthing in the UI to make a sound .. like a touch tone.. then in a few seconds i'll hear a pop from the rear speaker
anyone else have this issue?
Anyone having this issue?
basically.. does your rear speaker pop when the amp cuts power to the speaker ?
cant say i have this happening on mine
Exactly have the same problem. I didn't notice the hiss though, but definitely heard the pops. But yes when I listen closely I with my ear to speaker I hear exactly what you described: a hiss ending in a pop.

On my other phone (samsung epic 4g touch), it does the hiss/pop/silence thing too, but the pop is much much quieter that I can only hear it if I put my ear right next to the speaker.
However on this galaxy nexus it is loud enough that I can hear it from 1-3 feet-ish. Its especially noticeable in quiet areas.
I'm considering return it because of this

For me it's not a big problem. I notice it but it is not annoying me. I hear it only when I'm concentrating on it. BTW just applied the new update and that didn't fix this issue.

I'm pretty sure this happens on all devices. I have this on all my phones, navigation units, clock radios...
Me, too, I just checked all electronical devices I have and they all have it. Though, it's so quiet, that I have to get closer to the speaker than I normally ever woult.
Is that different for the GN? Is it louder than "normal"?

my GN is defiantly louder than normal. I can hear it easily from almost any normal usage distance. It almost sounds exactly like the normal touch sounds so that I get confused and think I clicked on something
pretty sure it's the amp cutting off power to the speaker a few seconds after it makes a noise
Mine does it too. Simplest solution I've found is to turn off touch sounds. That way the speaker doesn't keep turning on and off so often. I would normally turn those sounds off anyway because they are annoying, so it's no biggie for me.
Only time I have noticed a speaker pop is going into recovery
Mine does this too.
Glad its not just mine!
yeah, i thought i was going crazy last night too, but i definitely have the same popping problem
its not very loud , but its there - i heard it when i was in my room cause it was dead silent. Whenever i played any type of sound file, you'd hear the little pop afterwards from the speaker =/
it kinda sucks with touch tones for the dialer cause it happens everytime you push a number
i wonder if google/samsung knows about this and if it can somehow be fixed through a SW patch just like the volume bug haha - cause this LOOKS like a HW issue again
Yes, I certainly also get this, my hearing is very sensitive, so something like this is very noticeable for me.
Even "turn off touch sounds" doesn't seem to stop it.

I would guess it's just something as simple as properly muting the output to the speaker before turning it off. This should prevent the voltage spike from affecting the speaker.
Its not unique to the Nexus - it can potentially happen to anything with a speaker that isn't muted before turning off the amp.
Hi guys,
If anyone can check for me.Please go to settings>sound>system>and enable touch sounds. Then just hit the back button.You can hear the "click" sound from the speaker or the headphones.After milliseconds you can hear and a "clack" sound from speaker or the headphones?Please do the test for me because i think i have defective device.

Go somewhere very silent.Its not the vibration.I can "hear" the vibration and lets say at the same time the "click" and after milliseconds the "clack"

I bought two galaxy nexus units from unlocked-mobiles. They both do the clack sound, one just much louder than the other .
I can only hear it if I put my ear right beside the speaker with one unit but with the other unit, it's quite loud. I can clearly hear it from arm's length with this second unit.
If I plug in my headphones, I can barely hear the clack sound from both units. Therefore I think the clack sound is either part of "click" sound file or it's just the speaker terminating the "click" sound file. If you can hear it loudly, you either have a defective speaker or low quality headphones. Either way, it's annoying to hear on the one unit whose external speaker "clacks" loudly.
Samsung's quality control is pretty disappointing. The unit that "clacks" loudly has already suffered from the "sleep of death" twice, and I've only had these phones for 24 hours! I'm all the way in Canada and so it's a pain to mail the defective unit back to the UK.

They mentioned no fix.They said this is how speaker works BUT i asked supercurio for this issue (he doesnt have the device, he just read the thread) and here the answer
"Looks like pop-in and pop-out.
Means through hardware design or sound driver design are not very good for this codec."
I wouldn't say case closed.
With one of my devices, it's hardly noticeable (which is the way it supposed to be) so I don't mind at all. With the other I can clearly hear it from arm's length so it's a problem.

Obviously.Case closed goes for my case .Its not so loud.But in your case you must ask for replacement. The think is that everybody has it (other lower and other louder) and google/samsung must look at it.Maybe the solution is "simple" as supercurio quote (codec) or harder (bad hardware).If the problem (yes its a problem, i had sgs1,htc desire hd,nexus s, sgs2 and none of them has this issue and believe me from day one i check for pixels, speaker quality etc etc) is hardware then google/samsung you have a problem
Hello guys this is also my fault if we want to call it, but on a page of code.google there is a page to know the problem at the big G.
Who has this problem can visit this page and present it.

Yes i have this issue, thanks for the page wollyka i forgot it for posting.
All I hear is the sound it's supposed to make, nothing after. I turned off vibration and held it right to my hear and tried loads of times... all I hear is the single touch sound!
They're called Touch Sounds, its a feature, and you disable them under the sound settings.
Settings>Sound> uncheck Touch sounds.
This isn't a new feature either...
Either:
a) I'm just lucky because I don't have it; or
b) You guys are incredibly stupid and don't realise that the first sound you can hear is the vibrate and the second is the touch sound which you turned on
I noticed if I put the volume high when on a call there's this buzzing/rattling in the earpiece. Should I be worried? After hearing this the first time I shook my phone and it sounds like something is loose near that area. Anyone else have the same rattle?

Hi, the closest problem i have found on the net is this https://www.ifixit.com/Answers/View/513240/Why+does+my+phone+rattle+when+it+vibrates it could be some screws to tighten a bit, hopefully it could be fixed like this, but i don't know how accessible is the motor.

Mine sounds like this when moving the slider. I like the (quite faint) sound actually
@Kom_zo
Hi again, got mine today.
Checked the haptic and same issue. I noticed it only happens on fast movement of the slider and imo it's software related.
The motor doesn't hick-up but the sound generated/related to the slider speed. In one way or another it can't reproduce the sound as quick as the movement.
Hope this get fixed with a sw update. Otherwise it's not that ok

Hi there, also getting the same damn thing, it's so frustrating to buy a brand new phone a getting this half-cooked hardware.... here you can appreciate the crunching sound in my terminal...
Quality control issues, this what happens when Xiaomi tries to sell such good hardware for such a good price during the pandemic.
I'm not sure if I'd personally ship it back if mine has the same issue, shipping fees to China/Europe is costly from Canada.
If the shipping fees and turnaround times is not that bad for you and the seller has a replacement policy then return it for a replacement.
Mine has the same problem, i think it's software related
I think it is software related too. That sound is almost gone when you change the haptic feedback in the gboard settings.
I could replicate this problem with two identic Poco F3 Smartphones (8/256gb), (left one crunching, right one normal , how it should be)

Thank you for this! So it is definitely a design flaw of the F3. I wonder what portion of devices shipped with a crunching sound to the vibration motor..
crunching sound this unnormal ?
oh, come on guys, grow up.
when, in the real life, will you go to the settings and slide up and down on the haptic feedback intensity bar like mad?
if there is no issues whilst operating phone in normal working environment then why would you care about it?
It has to be software, when you do the vibration test it goes well and nothing sounds, does someone with xiaomi.eu have the bug?
fixed in 12.0.4
