Hello guys
I have a strange beeping coming from the earpiece/camera?
I recorded it, see the link. It's more frequent when sleeping, but audible when using phone too.
I can hear it when I press the camera against my ear but if I concentrate I hear it from a distance too.

boot into recovery or fastboot mode. if the beeping is still there, then it's an hardware problem

Unfortunately yes... But what could it be?
probably some isolating issue. It's a typical issue of electronic devices. For example if i set the brightness of my laptop at minum the LCD starts to make a buzz noise, very annoying. Is your phone still in warranty?

Hi, I have an HTC Inspire rooted with the newest Cyanogenmod 7. Out of randomness, my phone is now deciding it wants to vibrate during calls, the entirety of them. Also if I adjust my volume, it will be stuck playing notification sounds as if I were getting a call. This happens even if I lock the phone. If I put my phone on silent, this fixes everything, but I can't have that; What can I do? This is a completely fresh CM install.
There is a setting for it. Not sure where. Try in telephone, settings and uncheck vibrate in call ir whatever it's called.

That's not the problem at all. The phone is vibrating nonstop. Not just once when answering and hanging up. I've disabled these options and it still continues to vibrate.

take it to one of those pure romance parties, im sure you could sell it for $300+ with that feature!!
on a serious note, it is sounding either like it was a bad download or bad flash. I wouldnt rule out hardware either. Has the phone ever been dropped or get exposed to water?
edit: did some reading and it's sounding like there is possibly a short in the vibrate circuit. is it under warranty still?

It is, and I'll be taking it back if a reflash and then unroot doesn't fix it. However what about the ringing issue?
Well, a reflash worked. If this happens again however, what the heck could it possibly be?

could be a number of things. if it happens again i would just return it to stock and get it replaced. diagnosing things like this is like trying to fix a car over the internet, it mostly just involves people guessing until you get lucky or break it more
My Nexus 5 vibrate motor seems to randomly stop. Usually, it stops working for just a few seconds at a time, but sometimes it stops for more than just a few seconds. It started randomly one day, and I haven't been able to tie it to a specific app yet, and it didn't coincide with the installation of a kernel or ROM.
I'm running rooted stock Lollipop with elementalX kernel (2.03).
I've tried pushing on the back, since some people have issues with the vibration motor not making good contact with the rest of the phone, but it seems that doesn't really do anything for me. It seems to help occasionally, but not necessarily.
Sometimes turning the screen off and back on helps, but sometimes not either.
Unfortunately, the inconsistency is making it difficult for me to figure out what the problem is. Could it just be a dying motor?
You can open it up and reseat the vibration motor on its sticky pad if you're not worried about the warranty. Alternatively, some of those with the issue have reported success giving the phone a good smack.

Thanks for the ideas
I did try reseating the motor, and I thought it was going well, but after about a full day or so, I was hit with a non-vibrating motor again Turning the phone off and back on didn't help, but shaking it a bit seemed to do well
I have tried giving the phone a good smack, but it seems like a temporary thing. I'm mostly afraid I might miss a call, message, or vibrate alarm if I run into this problem with the phone in my pocket
And it happens with stock kernel as well, correct? If it has been less than 1 year you could RMA.

I had this problem as well and still encountering it sometimes. Don't worry about a missed call though. My vibration completely stopped working and a reboot didn't help, however a call made the vibration work again lol and it has been working since. Fingers crossed same **** doesn't happen again.
So, I pick up my device from the wireless charger, a minute later, it buzzes.
I put the device down on my desk, it buzzes every minute or so. Yet, there's NO notification that tells me something needs attention.
The constant buzzing is driving me nuts. If I have the sound on like I do at home, it's accompanied by the default sound every time a buzz happens.
Anyone know what's going on? And, can I stop it?
No, turning off the device and putting it on my pocket isn't an option because I need to be using the device.
It sounds like a replacement :-/

I don't think there's anything wrong with the device, I think it's got an issue with something running that is making it buzz so often but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is that's running.
***FIGURED IT OUT*** It was the software update that I paused. Seems the S8+ kept buzzing to tell me that it wasn't done. It is MEANT to be annoying***
Fixed the buzzing by downloading the rest of the update and not applying it.
Whenever I turn on or off the screen, there's a faint click noise, almost like electrical bridging. Can anyone confirm if this is normal?
Could this be actually an intended sound effect, like the one that is default for clicking when you reset the device?

I don't think so; it's very very quiet and seems to be linked with the backlight being switched on/off, rather than simply the phone being unlocked or locked
It might be camera lens. My S10 does it when turn off and on.

The sound is because the camera motor is making one small step to check if the camera is in the right position.

I have this same issue, a faint click sound on the top of my phone whenever I turn on or turn off my screen via the power button / tapping the screen. Pretty sure it's coming from the motor, not sure if this is normal among users though. And I just got my phone two days ago.
EDIT: Nevermind, I just checked the link in the above post. The Asus rep gave an answer, that helped relieve my concern.
Thank you for the information. Was very confused about what the sound was!
No longer getting any sound or microphone working with Samsung Note 3.
My phone had a weird booting issue where the screen would just flash white etc this used to happen occasionally but the phone would restart and be ok. This time is was longer. I eventually got it started however I no longer have any sound from ear speaker or loud speaker nor does the microphone work. Some apps when attempting to play sounds either freeze, crash or throw errors.
I have was using lineageOS 15.1 however, I tried flashing back to stock with no luck.
and then back to lineage again for no effect.
I opened the phone up and checked all the ribbon cable connections. I had previously replaced the usb port board but that was a year ago.
I tried an app to switch between headphone and speaker incase it was stuck in speaker mode but nothing there as well.
The app has a diagnostic mode and I see this..

I also completely disconnected the headphone jack and ear speaker and booted and the phone behaved the same way.
Any assistance or pointing in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. However... It may be time..

You obviously have hardware failure, replace the hardware, but, honestly, Note 3 is actually not worth repairing. You could buy a newer used device with the money it would cost to replace the hardware in the Note 3 instead.

It's a hardware issue. if u believe it is an OS issue. hard reset the phone.
