How do I disable the sound while texting? It's really annoying to hear it.
Get the keyboard up and select the Settings key (looks like a cog) > Text input> Sound Feedback
Uncheck sound feedback.
Thanks a lot mate. You've been really helpful.

Can anyone tell me how to switch of the DTMF tone on dialling?
THanks
PS - I'm a newbie when it comes to android - got bored with WM.
DO you mean the keyboard tones? DTMF tones are something else entirely!
when in phone press menu and look in settings for keybaord tones.
but be warned, when you turn these off, DTMF tones will also be disabled and your voicemail will stop working, because you wont be able to select menu items when you call automated lines like voicemail.
and yes i know i said they were different things entirely, and they are, it just for some stupid reason, android has linked them together!

Thanks for that. I've turned them off and can still access the menus within the vodafone voicemail service. Just found them annoying especially when in work!
Does anyone know how to change the volume of the audible selection tone? It's the one that makes a sound when ever you press something on the screen.
I swapped out the default one with the one from the Galaxy S, but it's so faint I can't hear it. I've tried adjusting all the setting with sound manager from the market but have had no luck...

Try: Settings>Sound>Volume - options are presented there.
Post back whether this gets you where you want/need to be.
Absent that, have you tried the volume rocker on the side of the device?
I've tried all the volume settings, nothing seems to make it louder...
Figured it out, apparently it's controlled by the 'Media volume'.
Sorry for bumping an old thread but this might help someone.
I'm running Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread, and had an extremely loud "audible selection" volume. The fix was so simple but I didn't realise it... I just went to Settings > Sounds > Volume and saw "Ringtone" and "Multimedia". Adjusting these did nothing. But I had to SCROLL DOWN the tiny little dialog box and there was revealed a "system sounds" slider!
Success!
Can anyone help with this.
The sound menu has the System tab containing Keypad Touch Tones, Touch Sounds, Screen Lock Sounds, Pull-to-Refresh Sounds, Vibrate on Touch. Some of these i need explanations for as they do not seem to work. My handset is not on Power Saving mode.
Touch Sounds - Plays sounds when making screen selection. .
Pull-to-Refresh sounds - Plays sounds when refreshing feeds and content.
Obviously the description the menu gives is self explanatory but i dont hear anything from these 2 options.
Eg. il swipe left to blinkfeed or go into the app drawer and no sound is heard. Isnt this meant to be the 'Touch Sound.'
If im scrolling through Blinkfeed and pull down to refresh shouldnt i hear a sound if 'Pull-to-Refresh Sound' is active.
NB. The other menu boxes work in sounds although 'Screen Lock Sounds' is practically inaudible but does work.
Am i missing something?
Again thanks for your time and any reply.
Hi all,
I just realized that everytime I type there is touch sound on the keyboard. I went to Settings > Sound & notification > Other sounds and switch off the Dialpad tones and Touch sounds. But I still can hear the sound. Can anyone show me where the setup for keyboard sounds? FYI, I use standard keyboard. Please help me on this.
Thanks!
go to Language and input in the settings,there will be all the keyboards installed on your phone,find the one you use, look at the side of it, you will find the settings button,tap it and you will find the option to disable sound.

Hi, I enabled the haptic feedback but now whenever I press the on-screen navigation buttons I also hear a sound. Is there a way to disable the sound so that I get the tactile feedback but not the sound while using the phone with haptic feedback?

In the same section of settings (Sound and vibrations): advanced settings - turn of touch sound

I turned off everything under Additional Settings but it didn't help. Still have sound when I use on-screen navigation buttons or type on the keyboard while Haptic Feedback is on. Couldn't find a way to turn off the sounds and use tactile feedback only.

If u turned off touch sound it should not make any sound on touch. Maybe ur talking about the sound that axis haptic makes (it is kinda metalic one)?

Its the click sound that happens when you type on the keyboard while haptic feedback is enabled. Maybe it's by design. I was trying to turn off the click sound and keep only the vibration as tactile feedback when I type on the keyboard.
I have the same issue; have no way to disable the touch sounds along with the haptic feedback. Even in DND mode sounds are present.
settings>Sound & touch>Additional settings
haptic motor does make some noise - it's a hardware thing but there are some settings what may help you
you welcome

Not as helpfuo as you think you are.
It is not a sound of the haptic motor, it is clearly a sound effect that follows haptic feedback
U can disable haptick feedback and turn on touch sound in additional settings to check if it's the same sound u hear when haptic feedback is enabled. If is the same, it's an software problem that can be solved in a future update....if is not, it's a haptic feedback "feauture" and u can do nothing about (most probably).

Good idea!
When I try that, tapping sound is a different one.
This Haptic "sound" I'm experiencing turns on/off with haptic feedback, and appears to have no connection to tapping sound option. I guess it could be the haptic motor, but the sound effect is quite "non-mechanical".
If the sound you're talking about sounds like a "deng" when swiping back, then it's the vibration motor voice coils activating and vibrating the mass.
