Just wondering if anyone else has/had this issue and what did you do to fix it.
Now for the down low, I am on GummyGB1.8, and when I video call on oovoo, the other party says my video is upside down, this also happens when taking pictures with the forward facing camera.
Where to go from here?
this happens to me too sometimes.. haha
You sure you're not holding your phone upside down?
...
LOL, just kidding. I have had this problem before, It has also happened when I'm taking a picture(with the rear camera) and I go to look at it and it's ****in upside down. >_<

I swear I am hearing my camera randomly focus. You know that click sound it makes when you turn it on? It makes that noise every once in a while. I know they might do that if you tap them or something but this is then im holding it swapping through apps. It seems like it does it a lot when I hold the home button but that could just be me... Anyone else have the same going on??
EDIT: Woot for good spelling on the thread title!
Am I the only one??
Hey guys,
Just wanted to ask if anyone else has this issue where you get this strange ticking sound during playback of a video you've recorded. Anyone know if there's some specific setting I'm supposed to turn on/off to make it go away? It's bugging the hell out of me.
I've noticed, however, that if I turn the WiFi off the ticking sound goes away. So I guess that's my fix for now.

FOCUS
The noise comes from the lense trying to focus on the new view when you move the phone. It has nothing to do with the Wi-Fi. Probably you were moving less while on Wi-Fi.
The bad thing is that this noise is even recorded pretty loudly in the video. This is a very good question as this could become a major issue with this phone.
I haven't experimented a lot with mine yet to determine how to avoid this issue. I would try to not to make jerk movements while in video mode to see if the lens will move smoothly and will not make any noise.
There are $900+ camcorders that do poor sales due to some similar problems. Noisy cooling fan etc. I really hope HTC did not overlook this issue.
Let us know if you do any of the above siggested experiments and if you still have the noise.
Thanks
Hi,
I tried doing what you suggested and it didn't help that I was holding the phone very still when shooting a video. The ticking sound is still there. But as soon as I turn the WiFi off it goes away.
Could it be some kind of interference problem?

I have clicking with our without wi fi. And the noise comes in the exact moment I move the camera and lens trying to re-focus. It might have to do something with the settings /hopefully...

I've taking some shots this morning. You can see them here.

Let me know what you think.
Thank you for sharing these videos.
I imagined the sound be much worse based on the comments but it's not that bad. Still annoying though and should be fixed. Especially for those recording more silent videos (like me).
OK these are two different things. The noise that I am referring to is video #1 00:06 the noise from the lens. And since your are not doing long short distance it only clicks once thru the video.
I agree that you have ticking sound and might be some interference with the WiFi unique to your apartment etc.
However, there is another noise source, that every phone has but people are not aware of it yet. The noise from the lens focusing which is much louder than the ticking noise in your video

I didn't really notice the sound resulting from the lens focusing, but I'll check again. And I'll test recording some videos while connected to the WiFi at work. Like you said, it could just be an interference problem with my home WiFi.
Just a quick update,
I recorded a short video at work, while connected to the office WiFi. No change. The ticking sound was still there. So I'm guessing there's something wrong with the camera module that makes it susceptible to WiFi interference.
I'd like to know if anyone else is experiencing this problem.

I'm having the same issue with my HTC One X. Wifi on = noise in recordings.
With the new blackout rc3 the problem is solved for me

Ive had this since last year, and prior to sending my unit in to get the back of the unit replaced (plastic tabs holding the bezel have broken over time, and it allows the bezel to be pulled away from the unit...), I never had this issue!
What issue? Well whenever I take a picture, or switch from the front camera to the rear camera there is an audible clicking sound, almost like the shutter is initializing, my problem is, that I never had this issue prior to sending it in!
I called Asus and they said (more like the guy was told) that it was "normal", however I have found VIA googling that it doesnt seem to be normal at all.
Does anyone else with a TF101 have this issue? (Majority at least, or are me and a few others needing to get this repaired?)
Thanks!
EDIT: this is NOT the shutter sound that plays through the speakers, this literally comes from the rear camera unit itself, not the speakers!
EDIT2: with 58 views and no replys, I want to know if you do or dont have the clicking sound, either way works, no need for drive-by's
The clicking nose is the rear camera turning on. I have it when powering up the TF or switching camera from front to rear.
It's very faint but it has always been there for me.

same here! always when i turn on my device.
surely i never heard that "sound" when i take a picture. only at the start up.
Yeah I have never heard it before, its not quiet at all... its really very loud for me...
Im just gonna send it in again... its that annoying! (Its ALMOST as loud as the shutter sound when its turned on :/ )
Yea i've the sound too, can hear it during start up, and when swaping between front and rear camera.

Im guessing I had it as well, the difference however is that now its loud enough to compete with the shutter sound (I normally turn it off, but fresh from repair its factory reset, so i took a picture, and turned the sound off and the clicking was almost as loud as the shutter sound)... where before I dont ever remember hearing it at all (I never put my ear to it like some people say they have to to hear it)
I could hear it through the gumdrop case I have for it!
I've been having problems with my back camera.. It can take pictures but randomly only shows a black preview of the picture taken and says "no thumbnail" for that picture or half of the picture shows gray or green colors only and also sometimes force closes.. Front camera works fine and I've already tried different camera apps and different roms but still facing this problem.. I've got no problems using video recording though that's why I think this is really weird..
Hope someone could help me out on this since I've got such an unreliable camera that is randomly usable for taking pictures which is really annoying..
I had same problem when I was on ICS but with front camera. I flashed JB and now it's not even showing black screen, it just crashes

I finally found out what is triggering my camera not to work properly.. When the device heats up that's when the back camera has issues (maybe since it is located on the upper part of the phone and that's where the phone usually heats up)..
Does anyone have an idea if this is hardware or software related?
Does anyone elses camera stabilizer clicks audibly once every time a camera app is opened? It also happens when the phone Is booting, im just asking because I had assumed it was just a sony quirk but some guy on the forum said he got his device repaired because of it. Do you also get the clicks?
I have also recognized the "clicks" everytime i use an Camera app.... i dont know if its normal or not.

Yeah, I am getting clicks when I open Camera app or when I switch between lenses but I believe that a normal thing and nothing to worry about!?
I haven't notice that sound while phone is booting because you need to be really focusing on camera to notice the click.
Yeah im quite sure its just a sony quality. Its something to do with the OIS maybe calibration?
