M8 camera buzzing/vibrating noise - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
the camera of my M8 makes a buzzing/vibrating noise when I start the camera app.(But the camera is working and the pictures are as good as usual) I tried a reset of my phone but it had no effect. My guess is that this is a fail safe mechanism. For me it sounds like the lens stucks a little bit and a firmware mechanism is vibrating the lens until it's free again. Can you confirm this or why do you think my camera makes buzzing sounds?
thx

it is the camera lens problem, hardware issus

Is there a chance to fix it or do I have to replace the complete camera module?

Its the camera auto-focus. Folks have posted on here of hearing a buzzing noise, while others don't. The noise may or may not indicate its failing. But I wouldn't worry about it, until the camera fails to focus, or fails to work completely.

Click noise when launching camera app (Note 4)

Hello all, new to the forum. Been lurking for a while though :good:
I just got a Note 4 Dev Edition. And I notice that when I launch the camera app, there is a faint "click" noise. As if the lens is moving. I'm not talking about the shutter sound (when taking a pic). This noise occurs when I launch the camera app (as the camera is starting up).
Has anyone else experienced this with their Note 4?? I found a few threads about this same kind of noise on other phones, but nothing regarding the note 4. I'm kinda OCD with this stuff
Thanks!!!

I dont hear anything.
i know my note 2 would occasionally make that noise. Specially when I'd use a Telsa App.

Old thread but i have same noise. It doesnt happen always but sometimes
It's the focus mechanism, an electromagnet that moves the lens. If you open the camera app while looking at the rear camera, you can see it move along with the click sound. As the phone gets older and experiences more heat, moisture, and dust, this part gets noisier.

Problem regarding Main Camera

The Main camera all of a sudden making buzzing noise and not focusing.
The front camera is working fine.
The same sound is coming when i switch on the flashlight.
Some help will be appreciated.

Ticking noise of camera lens or something else near camera/speaker

Hi at all,
i recently bought a new Moto Z2 Play. All work good, except for a noise that i discovered yesterday during a call. If i shake the phone i can clearly hear a ticking noise that seems comes from the camera or, however, in this area. I supposed that are the camera optical lens, but could be something else, like an unscrewed screw for example. The fact that it comes from the camera area makes me think of camera lenses.
Could you tell me if you also notice this noise? I have already replaced the phone once for problems with the usb port, I would not have to replace it again. In any case all work good, the camera is able to focus when i tap and the photo are good, the speaker sound is good, so I can't understand what it could be.
Thank you.
Same noise here. Everything is working properly anyway.
Same noise here, Verizon variant.
it is from camera module.
open camera and focus it to close object, and lock focus. wohha the clicking noise while you shake your z2 is gone. nothing to worry about. that noise is on every moto z2 play.
My phone has the same ticking sound when I shake it, yet everything works fine.
that ticking sound is the actuator working. dont worry, there is nothing wrong with your phone.

Noise from camera

Maybe someone has had a similar problem.
Sometimes when particular app opens camera and the camera sensor is active the sensor will buzz. It is happening only in 1 app.
Second is that when i shake the phone I hear a rumble near the camera. When the camera is turned on, it is less rumble when shaking the phone.
Otherwise I think the camera is working ok. Zoom is ok, when i cover with my hand the sensor there is no buzz.
Someone had a similar situation?
My Mi5s just started to do exactly the same when I start the camera app. Any solution to this noise?
The exact same thing happened to me, until the camera stopped focusing and I had to change it
