I was using my phone to browse a web page then put it down, I suddenly heard some strange mechanical whirring noise, I thought I had left the screen on and the sound was coming from a web page but the screen was off, I unlocked it and toggled media volume, no difference, I could hear the audible sound that you would hear when toggling sound. I put my hand over the rear camera cluster and could feel a slight vibration so opened up the camera app and the sound immediately stopped.
Now whenever I open the camera, there is a huge light glare problem that would look great in Star Trek movies, but not for me! It just seemed to cause this problem all by itself, there is no dirt or oil on the rear cluster and there's no crack etc. this all just suddenly happened when that noise came about when I put it down on my sofa...
A visit to the nearest service centre. Sounds like a mechanical problem.

Normally the sensor moves freely until camera app is opened or used because of the mechanical stabilization. Here would be great to see more examples but if you experience these glares all the time, you should book a service appointment.

Hi,
I have a LG-H818P and a couple of days now that on occasion, when I open the camera app it starts hissing and sometimes I feel a light vibration like if it had a laptop fan in it. I thought it was some issue in the Manual mode, but I can't replicate the problem. It happens randomly, but only when I open the camera.
Has anyone had this problem before? The phone hasn't overheated or behaved in any abnormal way aside from this "fan like" vibration and noise.
Thanks,
Hi at all,
i recently bought a new Moto Z2 Play. All work good, except for a noise that i discovered yesterday during a call. If i shake the phone i can clearly hear a ticking noise that seems comes from the camera or, however, in this area. I supposed that are the camera optical lens, but could be something else, like an unscrewed screw for example. The fact that it comes from the camera area makes me think of camera lenses.
Could you tell me if you also notice this noise? I have already replaced the phone once for problems with the usb port, I would not have to replace it again. In any case all work good, the camera is able to focus when i tap and the photo are good, the speaker sound is good, so I can't understand what it could be.
Thank you.
Same noise here. Everything is working properly anyway.
Same noise here, Verizon variant.
it is from camera module.
open camera and focus it to close object, and lock focus. wohha the clicking noise while you shake your z2 is gone. nothing to worry about. that noise is on every moto z2 play.
My phone has the same ticking sound when I shake it, yet everything works fine.
that ticking sound is the actuator working. dont worry, there is nothing wrong with your phone.
Recently my phone is emiting a strange noise under the camera. When I open the camera app it transfroms in a windy sound. The performance of the phone isn't affected and the sound is only noticeable when I stick my ear on the back of phone.
Should I worry or is normal?
Maybe someone has had a similar problem.
Sometimes when particular app opens camera and the camera sensor is active the sensor will buzz. It is happening only in 1 app.
Second is that when i shake the phone I hear a rumble near the camera. When the camera is turned on, it is less rumble when shaking the phone.
Otherwise I think the camera is working ok. Zoom is ok, when i cover with my hand the sensor there is no buzz.
Someone had a similar situation?
My Mi5s just started to do exactly the same when I start the camera app. Any solution to this noise?
The exact same thing happened to me, until the camera stopped focusing and I had to change it
I'm on official BSL7 ROM Android 10, only root with Dr. Ketan guide (thank you very much!), but no mods or other modifications. When I press back soft key or other parts of the screen, there comes a strange clicking noise from speakers, I know for sure the sound comes from speakers, I keep press and hear the clicks from speakers. I have disabled touch sounds and searched on Google for noises like this, there is some guy with S10 I think with similar problem and he also does not know what is it. Also, the sound is random, pure random, sometimes I heard it, sometimes not. It's annoying and it's not camera repositioning lens, because I am not using the camera at that time, even in games I can hear this annoying clicking sound.
What could it be? Are there any others with problem like this? It is software problem? I have reseted the phone, still there, but it triggers only when screen is touched. I have inspected the phone, it is not a gap between screen and glass, also I had it with original plastic screen protector from Samsung which comes from factory. Tried to listen to music, the speakers are fine, not damaged. Only when I click the screen and purely random, so it's not a mechanical issue, the screen is not damaged.
