Nexus 5X weird sounds when press buttons - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

HI
I just got my nexus 5X yesterday but there is an annoying sound when i press some button or unlock the phone. i can not find where should i turn off this sounds. Any idea? It sounds like windows 98!!!
on youtube you can find a sample video what i mean just search: Nexus 5X Strange sounds

Is it vibrating when you hear the "sounds"? There have been some people that have a vibration motor that seems to make an audible sound.

You mean they don't all do that? I ordered two and they both do it. Doesn't bother me, though. I got an 6P also but I'm liking this phone for the feel. 6P outperforms this phone but it is big and heavy.

[Q] Delayed "Pop" on Speak phone?

I am on my third replacement phone (last one the LED notification didn't work) and now I am noticing that there is a very faint 'Pop' sound emitted from the speaker phone 3 seconds after there is a system audio sound. For instance, every time I hit the Home button or unlock the phone, I hear the 'Pop' three seconds later.
Does anyone else have this problem? If I have headphones plugged in, I do not hear the sound through the headphones.
Thanks!
Dude is it possible that u have the lock n unlock sounds enabled?

Yes I do have the sounds enabled and I hear those fine. I am hearing an additional click/pop noise 3 seconds later. It makes the sound pretty much every time the phone makes noise. It's very faint.
From what I've read this is a pretty common problem. Mine does this as well but honestly I can only hear it when its quiet.
There's also another thread on this topic but I don't believe there was really conclusion.
Mine and a bunch of nexi at my local best buy suffer from this. It is not dependent on lock sounds it's a problem with the DAC I believe

Gotcha. Are you boosting your volume with volume+ or any other app?
Thank you for the replies. I'm glad to hear I'm not alone.
I have the same problem. I posted a thread yesterday, and there's another one (i didn't see it before posting mine).
That's a pretty annoying issue, i used to have the same thing on my unibody MacBook (fixed with an unofficial software patch), and once you hear it, well, you can't unhear it.
I hope this is not a hardware issue and can be fixed by some patch, but no one seems to care about this one (maybe not all GN have this problem?)
I decided to just disable all touch tones since it was bothering me too much. Just out of curiosity I checked another Nexus and the pop is still there but could only be heard by literally holding the speaker phone to my ear. Not nearly as loud as mine.

Yeah dude.... same. I actually started the original thread on this. Its so annoying hey.... I hear ya man. I dunno, I did the same as you, disabled touch sounds. Its sounds cheap doesn't it.
I really hope its software related. I was trying to find out if, just a bit of 007 work, Haha, if it was maybe the build? Seeing if the people with a Google updated nexus's had the issue compared to people with the Samsung updated ones. I wonder if there a connection....

[Q] Does your phones speaker pop after producing sound?

I want to figure out if my phone is defected, or if all Nexus' are like this.
About 3 seconds after sound comes out of the phone's speaker, do you hear a popping noise? It sounds like the speaker is almost turning off, but extremely late..
Thanks.
I'm sure your nexus is still a Canadian citizen but I think all our phones have this issue... some worse than others. I can barely hear mine. I have to bring the speaker right up to my ears to notice

Ya I have this issue from time to time.

Yup, same here. It has to be dead silent around me to hear the pop, but its always there. What's weird is that the first nexus I had, which was the titanium one, didn't have the pop sound. The white one I bought does.

More people mentioned this when nexus first came out. Didn't think much of it at the time. I had it happen a couple times though. Not for quite awhile though. I wouldn't worry about it unless it is frequent.
bow chicka wow wow.
didn't had anything like that with my nexus (white version, produced in february). maybe that was a problem with one of the earlier charges?

Like I said, I had an earlier titanium version that didn't make the sound but my new white one does.

I had my phone replaced by my carrier and my 2nd one does this.. very annoying...
Yep, a nexus ain't a nexus without some kinda defect. It's the nexus way

Yes my nexus does this too. Its been posted already.
Yes, but its so soft i'd have to put my ear right next to the speaker.
Ya, it's a low popping noise, but it's noticeable when you're using the phone in a very quiet environment
Both of my Gnex have the issue. One has a whining noise, the other a hissing for 3 seconds then pop. I'm sure it'll be solved if and when Google releases a software fix for it. It doesn't really bother me and I have very sensitive hearing, you just learn to tune it out. It shouldn't be doing this in the first place, but **** happens eh?
Yeah, this issue happens to me as well... though I was able to make it better. I pulled the battery for ~30 minutes and help power button with no battery to drain all current. After rebooting a few times, the issue seems to have diminished and I can only hear it when I have the speaker right up against my ear unlike before when I could hear it sitting on the desk.

Strange doing when I click an icon or touch screen

Coming from Galaxy Nexus and got my HTC One X today.
1. This thing is a beast. I am getting Antutu benchmarks of 11000+ right out of the box compared to 6500 on Galaxy Nexus. Amazing!
2. Strange static sound when I click any icon. I do not know if it started after i rooted my phone or did it exist from before?a little bummed coz this phone costed about 650+. I have put it on mute and it still makes that small 'chit' sound which is annoying.
Everything works just perfect apart of this issue. Wondering if anyone has any solution to this yet?
PS: subject has a typo: it is sound not doing.

Are you talking about a sound that's made everytime you select something on the display? If so, it can be toggled off/on under: settngs>sound. It's in the last category toward the bottom of the page. The sound made when typing on the keyboard can be controlled seperately under: settings>language & keyboard>HTC Sense input.

Thanks for your reply, but no it is not that sound. I have turned off that sound already. It looks like it is a static sound and looks like it is coming from camera shutter. I have the sound set to zero through audio manager pro so nothing should be coming out. Very strange.
shake your phone near your ear, 90% chance you will hear a rattle, either the camera or the volume rocker, what ever is causing the rattle is the same that you hear when you press the screen, remove vibration feedback and you will feel it less
most One x have it so don't worry

I don't really hear a rattle. However the sound is gone automagically.

Popping noise after touching screen

Ever since I got my nexus from the play store, even with the volume down, and on screen touch sounds off, I get this popping noise when I make a screen selection. After about 2-3 seconds, there is another pop. I know I had this problem on my old phone when I put headphones in and made a screen selection. Is there any way to fix this?

No, it's your speaker. If you can hear the speaker "shutting down" under normal conditions, making that static sound, you should get it fixed/exchanged. I have to press my ear against the speaker to hear it. But it's there, just very quiet.

Maybe you should remove the bubble wrap gloves?
Does this occur with or without earphones??

[Request] In Call volume increase?

This is something that I really mis from my s3 probably the thing I would pick if I could change one thing. The phone gets decently loud when playing music (and the quality is amazing) but in call volume I constantly wish it got louder and the same is true for the speaker phone while in call. I think even just alittle bit louder would make a huge difference since for me at max volume its right at the edge.
Anyone else feel the same? I cant be the only one and I have good hearing lol. Please someone fix this!
So far I am seeing my problems disappear one by one as mods come out (share button in blinkfeed, green battery now clear, 30 volume steps for games and music, ect)
That's odd... I find it too loud already just setting it up 2 steps below the middle level of the volume when in call.
Maybe you have a dud. I can hear mine at almost max volume just like a speakerphone on a cheap device. It really is quite amazing

IDK my dads HTC seems to exhibit the same behavior. I will test more to be sure but I doubt its hardware related since my speakers sounds strong with no distortion or anything.
