[Q] Noise - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone hear a small rattle on the bottom left corner if you shake the transformer? Very quite but I can hear something loose in there

yes! I have something actually moving inside mine. Can hear it sometimes when you rotate the unit. Posted a thread but nobody else seemed to have the same problem. Trying to decide whether to send it back as I have no other problems at all (including no light bleed!) .
I reckon its a bit of plastic moulding ...... if only you could remove the back!?!

Mine its good too. Low light bleed. Just don't want it to end up being a bad defect that presents itself later on. Plus every time I rotate the unit il hear it. so just us 2 hey....wierd....quick everyone go shake their transformers and see

sounds like the rotation sensor for orientation? My Acer had the same sound. Sounded like it sliding.

It moves tho. If I shake it one way it will stop until I shake it the other way.

I believe he meant why do you say its blown. Weird is a completely non-descriptive term. If you provide a better description it would be much easier to help you. Also, I'm not aware of spare speakers for the SNS.

Normal. Blown would be heavily distorted sound from all volumes. The crackles are normal> If you aren't happy with that, go do a swap. Or get a whole new phone together... Seriously, if I continue to have problems, I'm gonna drop it completely and go back to BlackBerry.
I. May wait till another android phone attracts me thence ill swap

I think mine just blown today.
My text rings started crackling.
Then all my sounds would stop, then little keyboard ticks would be fine, shutoff sound fine. then again rings crack etc.
Well I go play music and it's crackling like crazy, then goes on/off.
I BLOW into the speaker while music is playing and it "works" better.
Anyways now, it's really dead unless i use an air can to blow on the speaker and it'll make sound.
Blown.
Guess I'll make a claim for my SquareTrade warranty

[Q] Vibration oddity?

Do you guys have a weird sort of squeak, or twinge when the vibration goes off?
I do not, no.
But that would be extremely annoying.

It is extremely annoying! If I hold the phone tightly in my hand while I make it vibrate the secondary noise ceases to make sound but otherwise, its there. I have a hunch that it's the camera auto-focus lens that's making the secondary sound, but I really have no clue. Kinda blows.

Speakers

Are both speakers at the bottom of the g2x supposed to have music coming out of them? On mine it only comes out of the right one.

One is a microphone and one is a speaker.
Pro Tip: If you hold the phone upside down then the speaker will be at the top. This provides a more uplifting sound and also boosts the high notes somewhat.
It does take a little getting used to the inverted image on the screen but eventually the brain adjusts... then it just looks like everyone else's phone is upside down.

Can you please post an idiot proof, how to thread on how to prooperly listen to music. Lol It has never bothered me.

I'm pretty sure only one of them is a speaker ...

This is so weird. I just got my G2x today, I thought there was something wrong with it. And i come in "G2x General" and it's the first post on the page.
One mic and one speaker. Here is the illustration from the owner's manual.
A simple search would have found you the answer as this has been discussed many times already.

And leaving this thread with one question that has already been answered alone would have made good sense.
A reply that is both condescending and late serves no purpose.

Well, you can just enable 360 degree rotation in CM7
Nice to see a picture. I thought we have surround sound with 2 speakers.

[Q] Weird clicky noise when typing?

Hey guys,
Over the past few weeks I've realized a weird clicking noise when typing text messages. I do have "Vibrate feedback" enabled. Every time the phone vibrates from touch feedback, not only do I hear the normal sound of the vibration, but also an audible clicking noise. Is this normal? This sound was never an issue prior to a week ago.
Thanks
I get that too. It sounds like it's coming from inside the phone, not the speaker. But I think it's a common HTC one x flaw, because there are ALOT more people who have it also.

Try settings, language & keyboard, HTC Sense input, sound feedback.
On or off?
Sorry if I'm being captain obvious here, but I've overlooked simpler things myself.

probably the camera lens. put your ear next to the lense and lightly shake your phone. it's how the phone was designed
The noise surely isn't coming from the speaker. Maybe something loose within the phone? The lens noise is something I've noticed from the start, but this is unrelated.
Not something that is crazy annoying, but I was wondering if others had the same issue. Shaking the phone won't replicate the noise, and when I turn "Vibration feedback" off, the click will go away upon touching the screen.
It's a defect with the vibration motor. Of the 5 HOXs that I've gone through, 3 of them had it including my current one. It's annoying but it's the only problem my HOX has so I'm dealing with it.

Luckily I don't have this because I'm typing all the time. Seriously a lot. The camera lens click did worry me at first before I read this thread.
I occasionally get a clicky screen on the top though. Don't really press up there much.

yeah, it's how they designed it. I'm not sure the reasoning, but I do know that it was intentional
Using Swiftkey, I noticed that if I had my vibration duration too low (I think the default is 10ms) I would get the clicking and barely any vibration. Ramping it up at 20ms makes the vibration actually noticeable and the clicking stops. I think it may be the latency between you hitting the screen and the vibration motor kicking on that causes the clicking since (pulling numbers out of nowhere here...) the vibration motor may take 9.9ms to kick on after receiving a vibrate signal but at 10ms it receives an off signal so it just studders and causes a clicking noise.
Yea I get this too. This is my 3rd hox and all three have had it. I stopped worrying about it too much since I realized it has to be common. I noticed it after flashing different rooms since the vibration feedback when typing seems to feel more pronounced than on stock sense.

SwiftKey you can edit your own feedback. I set it to 20-25ms and it's fine.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I have the SAME exact thing. Definetely not the camera lens. Seems to be near the bottom of the phone. It's this clicky, poppy, tapping noise as if you are pulling apart two sticky objects. I agree that it seems like the vibration motor.
I had it on my desire gsm. I think its due to vibration kicking in.
Well I can try later, keyboard vibration off and see if it makes a click.
But never did annoys, I'm loving it actually, just like a typewriter.
Guys. It's the vibration feedback when typing. The response time must be different than the program time and it only kicks a little. I set my SwiftKey keyboard to 25ms vibration when typing. It's very nice. No clicks because it gives it enough time to vibrate and it feels good. Trust.

I'm have this same problem on a new HT 27 batch model. This is not just a SwfitKey typing issues a the capacitive buttons and the dialer all make the same clicky noise. I getting really bored of swapping my HOX now this is my third and what I thought was perfect is not. I will have to send my to HTC as it's out of the 28 days grrrr.
Mine has the same problem, it sounds and feels really wrong like it's scraping against something. I heard a friend who has the EVO 4g LTE say he has the same problem.
Makes me feel really bad about the phone, like they didn't care enough to test it properly.
Mine also does this if the vibrate feedback is enabled. I just disabled it and now I'm fine.

Thank you i was searching everywhere but not within this setting.
I have an HT25 i never get a click but aosp roms have much more intense vibration then sense roms. Wish i knew how to lower the intensity in CM10 and other aosp roms.

Rattle around the camera area.

I've only had my Ace 2 for about a week now but I've noticed if you turn the phone over and tap around the camera area, their is a rattling noise heard.
Is this normal? What causes it?
Cheers

It's not a software issue mate. Literally hold the phone in your hand and tap with your finger around the camera lense and their is a sort of rattling noise.

I can hear it if I tap quite hard just above the camera. Also the phone has to be in your hand and not on a hard surface.

Odp: Rattle around the camera area.
I think it's the back cover of our device. It's all about friction between plastic and camera.

Yes, under the Led. But i'm sure it's the plastic, take a look under the case. There is quite big gap between led and camera, and this cause noise.

Do you get any rattle at all if you tap above the camera lense, just under the 3.5mm slot?

Hmm weird, not sure why mine does this then. It's literally just above the camera lense, tap it over and over with quiet a bit of pressure and it rattles.

Ok so I've looked around on lots of other websites and lots of different types of phone report this issue and apparently it's normal.
Your guys phone is probably rattling when you tap it near the camera but maybe you're just not noticing it like I do...
Ok I've discovered something else and I think this is to do with the camera.
Open the camera, set the auto focus, tap the back of the phone near the camera when the auto focus is locked and you'll hear it rattle even louder.
This must be something to do with the camera/auto focus and from looking at Google it appears to be normal, but can anyone else confirm this please?
Thanks
I think that it is Accelerometer sensor

If it happens when the camra is focusing, I would expect it to be the noise a digital camera makes when it focusses. It happens when you tap the phone because the camera would need to focus again...
... I don't think the Ace II is for you. May I suggest a Nokia 1100?...
