[Q] Lock screen sound has changed....???? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Strange issue. My note 2 has made the same lock sound when I press the power button to lock my screen (camera click sound) since day 1. Today it changed... it now makes a sorta chime when pressed to lock and a more musical chime when I swipe to unlock. Looked everywhere and cant figure it out. This is driving me crazy as ive had the phone for 2 years and changed nothing in my end.
Any help is appreciated....thanks in advance!

if you change the lock-unlock effect (ink/light etc.) sound changes.

Thanks. Tried that. No luck. Either the chime or water noise or nothing. Cant get the "camera shutter" sound that was the only sound for past 2 years.

If your phone is rooted, try install Xposed and play with modules. Maybe turn shutter sound on/off return right sound

Annoying Noise Pop

I have just recently purchased the galaxy note II and I'm starting to hear an annoying noise pop every 5 seconds if I have sound on. It usually happens when you press an application, type, go back, and press the menu button. Is this happening to other people or is it just me? You usually hear it in a silence place.

I've had the phone just over a month and not had any experience of this problem.

Go to settings and under sound option disable keypad tones and touch tones. This will help you I think.

It happens when i listen to audio or during a phone call too.
I returned the phone to the warranty provider they told me the next android update will fix this issue?

Usually, as in 'not always'? that's weird, can't be the touch sounds feedback then. Better return it, I've been lurking the forum lot lately and haven't read anything like it, I don't think a sw update will just fix it.

[Q] camera - ticking/ static sound?

Hi there.
I bought an htc one m8 today and absolutely love it but I am trying to find out if my phone is defective.
When I go into the camera app and click that square with 4 circles at the bottom (the button that you have to press that takes you to the options page which asks if you want to take a Selfie, Camera, dual capture, video, pan360 and zoe camera), it will make a static/ticking sound. It will again make this same ticking sound when I click the back button to get out of that camera menu. I'm trying to figure out if that's just a sound effect or if it is not supposed to make that sound? Sounds kind of strange to be a sound effect lol. Can you guys check your htc one m8s and tell me if your phone also makes a tick/static type of sound when you click it and then click the back button? Thanks:fingers-crossed:
I attached a photo of the square with the 4 circles just in case.
Much appreciated:laugh:

Hi I just realized that my touch sounds option was never checked so it was never on but I am still getting a crackling sound? Just checked my friend's phone and his does not do this so I will definitely swap this one out for a different htc one m8 tomorrow.
Thanks though
If you don't find camera option you can try handset option button or can decrease your phone sound.
I tried an M8 today and found that it has ticking sound on booting and when playing music,looked like a hardware issue (voltage or something) so I returned before paying a $
The seller tried a factory reset but the issue was still here.
Weird to see these kind of issue on a 770$ flagship phone nowadays.

Listen, my device does not make any static sound. Turn your sound/music volume all the way down & see if it still does it. There is a known defect that starts with static sounds & clicking that can end with a broken camera lens. If you don't hear it with the sound turned completely off, then it is just the sound effects of low volume. If YOU DO HEAR IT with the volume completely off, then you are possibly in possession of one of the faulty devices that have an issue that can cause a cracked camera lens.

Not so weird. You find issues on $5,000 to $20,000 4K LED panels too. Anything that is mass manufactured is going to have some problem devices that either slip through QA/QC, or fail shortly after passing thru QC. You'll also find defects occasionally on $300,000 vehicles, $10,000,000 planes & $100,000,000 structures. It happens.

Lolllipop: No incoming screen when lock screen notification disabled

I personally don't like lock-screen notifications and hence I disabled it in lollipop. However, it has a weird side effect, now it wouldn't show any incoming call screen when the screen in locked. Instead, it rings, I have to unlock the screen, click on a small call window to know who is calling or to answer the call. Not sure if this is G3 specific implementation or true with all the lollipops - in either case it's very stupid though technically correct.

yes.....i off the screen and waited for 5 secs before i start making call to my g3. you might need to do a factory reset and see if it will help to rectify the notification issue. i am on v20f AndroidNow 8.0....but i did a full reset when i loaded this OS.

Google Assistant - No audible acknowledgement

If the screen is not visible, when I say "OK Google" there is no audible tone to say she is listening, is there a setting to turn this on?
I just experienced the same today.

Are you sure you are not connected to a bluetooth device?
That was the only time I had this issue... When in my car, bluetooth connected, I would not get any audio feedback. Realized it was coming via bluetooth and disconnected.
Good luck and let us know!

No, I have Bluetooth turned off. The only feedback I get from Assistant is a very slight vibration and the on-screen animation of the 4 colored dots. What sort of notification do you get?
Thanks.
This is normal and frankly welcomed lol the crackling beep that would previously sound off was not appealing.

Ran into the same exact problem.... when I first got the phone it would make a noise to notify you it's listening after saying "OK google". For some reason even with the volume all the way up and everything turned on (voice set to 'on', rather than hands-free) it no longer makes any noise or responds, only a slight vibrate.
I called tech support and they told me this is not normal (duh), and had me factory reset... same thing, it persists... so they are mailing me a new phone.

It's a bug. If you go to Settings>Accessibility>Switch Access> and turn it ON the audible tone will return. I've talked with support and gotten nowhere.

Yep, It drove me crazy too. I do know that activating switch access solved the audible notification issue, but it adds another. Check out your camera while switch access is activated. There are added zoom and 5 second burst options. I just hope they get this bug worked out.

So I figured out if you disable the talkback app it kills both talkback and switch access under accessibility, which seems to fix it as well!
And that explains those buttons in camera lol.. was wondering why those randomly kept popping up. Even with switch access disabled I was randomly getting them...
EDIT- Nevermind, it only works after you disabled talkback if switch access was on when you disabled talkback, and only until you reboot. So it must leave a service running even after disabling talkback. So I guess we're stuck with it on...

lol gdi... now it ding's twice if you say 'ok google' when the screen is off....
THESE ARE STUPID PROBLEMS TO HAVE GOOGLE...
After first day of using my phone I noticed that assistant wasn't making confirmation tone after I would say Okay Google.
Today someone on the pixel Facebook group just happened to mention it and offered Google advice on how to fix it.
Go to settings > accessibility > enable "switch access".
Mine works now, how about yours?
From what I've read on other forums, enabling Switch Access also puts play controls on your YouTube screen (it is an accessibility helper after all). I'd rather have no Assistant acknowledgement tone than put up with those controls on my screen.
Has anyone found an actual solution to this problem yet? Its been a few months now.
Ok, we need to get this straight. The beep was removed by Google intentionally, so it's not a bug. Since they consider this a "feature", there will not be a way to "fix" it. Next, the Switch Access is NOT a fix. It's a workaround. And, just like many workarounds, it solves one problem and gives you another -- in my case, my volume control no longer work.

Any way to disable the proximity sensor?

I'm having issues with the screen not turning back on after a call or even listening to audio messages. I have to relock and then unlock to get it to work, very annoying.
I'm on 8.1, on magisk with xposed.
Could someone recommend me an app or a module?
https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/71510515
You along with a bunch of us... ota messed it up
Good to know, I'm not the only one. Doesn't seem related to screen protector.
Really wish I can disable the proximity sensor for now.
I guess I came to the wrong thread. I don't have any issues like that or at least I don't notice it because I is the power button to turn the screen in/off all the time and I set my lock screen to not relock the phone for 5 minutes or something like that. That way I don't gotta enter my unlock code. There also is a setting which is supposed to keep your phone unlocked as long as you don't set it down. There also is a setting that keeps your phone from locking if you are within range of a Bluetooth (headseat maybe) device. I dunno try some of those options maybe you won't need to type your code in as much.
Personally I came here because I am looking for a way to completely disable my proximity sensor. I absolutely hate them on all phones. How stupid is it that they put the proximity sensor I right up next to where you have to put your hand if you want to pull down the menu bar??? It's like I go to pull down the menu bar - screen off. ****! Power button, slide open the lock screen (no code needed). Pull menu bar - screen off ****! Power.... Slide....menu bar - screen off. Of course it only does that during calls however that's a pretty annoying time because you're usually focused on other things and not wanting to **** with the screen going on and off.
Who the needs a proximity sensor to detect one's face anyway? I just click the power button every time I put the phone to my ear. Any time I don't do that, I run the risk of my cheek pressing the mute button for the 9000th time in my life. I do love Android though.

So it works too well for you with your finger but not enough for your face to prevent muting? LOL. Sorry never had that problem. I just avoid the middle if I had to get to the notifications during a call.
It happens often when I'm trying to toggle BT because my BT icon is directly under it.... For example. Anyway, I don't find it useful to even have an proximity sensor. That's why I stumbled in here, my search query was the exact title. I'm not really experiencing the problem the others were talking about though....

Who needs a proximity sensor? Really? You basically answered your own question. To turn off the screen when you put it to your face so that your face doesn't press anything on the screen. Having to press the power button every time you put the phone to your face and then press it again every time you take it away from your face would suck.

I always use speaker or bluetooth and proximity sometimes turns the phone off spuriously so I disable it.
Sent from my Pixel 2 XL using XDA Labs
Yeah.....no basically pressing the power button is where it's at. It the again I'm not one who likes everything done for me. Absolutely NO PHONE I've ever owned has had a proximity sensor that was worth a ****. They all, at one time or another, allow the screen to wake up subsequently letting the microphone mute button to enable. The mute button is another piece of Android trash that needs redesigning. It is not often that mute is needed so why not out that in a drop-down menu or something since it inevitably gets pressed during calls due to a ****y proximity sensor and Screen wake setup.
I also drive a manual transmission car. Actually the last 5 cars I've owned have been manual shifted. When YOU are in 100% control of your devices, there are certain niceities which are otherwise unavailable. But that's only if you're the type who doesn't gotta have everything done for them.
As far as you go buddy, if you like the proximity sensor that's fine. Personally I don't ****ing care what you like. thanks for a wasted Fred post which contacted my email to have me come back here to tell you what a waste of time that was thanks.

.
So I assume you have earbuds, or if not, you can get some really cheap earbuds from the gas station, and when needed, you can plug it in, and it will register that it has earbuds in and will light up again, disabling the proximity sensor. You can leave it in as well, until you need it to talk, unless it will work while calling. This should work, I haven't personally tried it.

Hi,
Hope you managed to solve the issue.
If you haven't then
1. Install sensor disable from xposed repo. It's an old app so there are a few bugs when you try to remove the sensor as such.
2. Buy the Pro version or use lucky patcher to disable in app purchases for Sensor Disabler.
3. Go to the settings of Sensor Disabler and blacklist the apps that you don't want the proximity to work on.(I had problems with my WhatsApp. But it works perfectly now.)
