I know this has been discussed before but how many people can hear a noise which sounds like a spring when they open the keyboard. Feels very flimsy and nowhere near as solid as the tytn.
I hear it too; I thought it was just me. I had the Hermes before this, and I wouldn't characterize the slider as solid though
I hear it, but it feels pretty solid to me.
I hear it too, I don't like it one bit. Feels pretty solid though

Dont think its a spring, but a slider that protects the ribbon cable. when the device is open
Having listened again its more of a rattle and it rattles when the keyboard is open if you move the device about.
Hi All,
I maybe had the same thing.
If u flip your keyboard and turn your TP around u can see a little panel. This seem to be protecting something. This panel can go up and down and does so when you flip your kboard. In this panel is a spring
On My first TP (i switched mine becos of this fault) the panel jumped open, which sounded like a spring.
I ttink this is the problem.
I returned to the store and switched mine, np since.
Hope this helps
Mine is brand new today so do you think I should send it back? From the poll, seems about 50/50 people have the problem.
Edit...
It has all become clear, I can see the little plastic cover that is loose making the noise. Dont know if its suposed to be loose or not though
It's supposed to be loose, it moves while u flip your keyboard.
What happened with my old one (just after tweo days) that when i flipped my kboard, the plastic cover moves to far and opens for a brief second, hence the sound. I still have the sound but it's way softer cos tha plastic cover dont move that much.
Hope this helps, if u worry, return it, way to expensive !
Whenever I talk on the phone and I'm yelling, the phone produces a "reverb" almost as if i am making a peice of metal flex (or like hitting a gong).
Then, I turn the phone over and tap just above and below the galaxy s logo, and I get a rattle and another reverb, respectively.
Kinda feels cheap, was wondering if it was just my phone or has anyone else noticed it? Also, what components are causing it?
Reverb, unnoticed. The sound you're hearing that is the auto-focus lens shifting on it's springs as you tap.
no, but i hear odd cracking noises when i twist opposing ends of the phone in opposite directions.

Why on earth would you do that? Or is my sarcasm meter broken?
Hmm, so I've figured out that apparently my right speaker is loose.. or something. It plays sound, but if it's too loud, it starts buzzing and gets really fuzzy sounding. Then, it stops playing anything at all. However, if I squeeze the right side where the speakers are, I get sound again.
So, my question is, is there any physical fix that you guys know of? Do you think using some rubber cement on the side would fix the issue (probably my last ditch effort if I care enough)? I was actually hoping there might be some kind of... holey electrical tape, like the black electrical tape, but with holes so that sound could pass through.
Hmm, any ideas?
Hey folks, I was messing with my phone today and inadvertently covered up the left speaker on the bottom which reduced the volume by 90%. I covered the bottom right speaker, no appreciable change.
It looks like the right speaker is full of lint! Any pointers on how to get that out of there? Maybe I should pull the case open rather than jamming needles in there?
Then I was reading this article

And it said the Nexus 5 has a mono speaker. Waaaaaiit a second. There are clearly two speaker grills in the bottom. Doesn't that mean stereo sound? I thought I had a lint problem, and now perhaps they're just fake holes?

Nope, just one speaker. The second grill is only for aesthetics. Sucks, I know.
Ghetto!

It's not just for "aesthetics".. There's a mic in there!

Did not know that! Interesting.

This thread made me laugh LOL. But on a serious note yes the right grill is a microphone. It's the phones main microphone for say when in a phone call or recording video that's what it uses.
Yes it's funny. There are a million threads about this, yet no one uses search before posting.
I thought the audio speaker volume was a bit low and noticed sound is only coming out of the left speaker hole. It's really obvious if I cover up the holes in turn. Could you tell me if yours is the same please?
There IS only one speaker...
Ah, well that would explain it. Silly me, I thought - two speaker holes = two speakers!
One is speaker and the other is the mic
Silly me thought the exact same thing today. I randomly put my phone up to my mouth and noticed the sound went away after covering just 1 side.
Thanks for clearing that up guys!
