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 dont hear anything.

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.
i have it but under the flash

I have it under the flash to but not as much. Would be interested if anyone else has this to.
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.

So you have it aswell?

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

Do you hear it to?
anyone else?
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?...

It also happens when the camera isn't on though.

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.

Exchange it sounds like a build quality issue. Mine is rock solid.

I was wondering if there is a app or someone can make the screen get bright right before you take a pic with the front camera kinda how there is a "flashlight" app for phones that dont have a led light and use the screen brightness just wondering if this would work for night time pics
searched around could not find anything on this at all so sorry if it was answered
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
i doubt it will work since it is facing you and not the real camera
Well what i was thinking is you take a pic of yourself with the front camera that the screen will get bright white kinda like a flash but just making it as bright white the screen can get for a second to see yourself better at night

I agree. That's very similar to my Mac desktop. The screen flashes right before it takes a self portrait. I bet an app can be created, but the issue might be auto focus. The front cam isn't all that great with auto focus so when the screen flash it might show a white blur.

On my nexus s it does not focus with the front camera justs takes the pic as is, is it suppose to autofocus? Im on nightly #31
Anyone know who we can talk to, to get something working?

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
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
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.

Did your screen switching still work?

When the camera re focus's on something I can hear a click sound coming from the lens area. Anyone else confirm this?
Just put your hand over the lense and you should hear it, then take it away and repeat.
Mine does this as well. It seems to do it more when it's trying to focus on something very close.
Same here, but with the all the noise my dslr makes I ignored it.

I have this as well. As long as it doesn't affect the camera I'm ok with it. It only takes a light shake for mine rattle.

Slight rattle for me too, I know it's not the power or volume though. But it's a non issue.

It's normal, mine does it too. I believe it's the focus mechanism in the camera. My previous iPhone 4s did the same thing.
*Edit* I just shot a few pics outside in the sun and I must say.....this camera takes incredible pics. They are on par or better than my iPhone 4s camera shot.
Yep mine too, don't worry

It's probably the shudder. My old moto photon used to do that as well.
I've heard of folks having rattle sounds from a loose power button, but that's not the case with me. I hear a rattle sound from the camera if I shake the phone or if the haptic feedback is used like when I'm typing. Is this normal or do I have something that needs to be fixed? Thanks!
