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.

Hi. I have new Nexus and I noticed that when I put phone down on something not very strongly but like any other normal phone the top part made some kind of broken sound. I just want to know if it is normal. Thanks
I know it is hard to undstand this problem, but it is also hard to describe that sound. I have no possibility to check other nexus. Sound is around camera or front top speaker.
I think what you might be hearing/feeling is the motor for the vibration function.
And do you think it is ok, or it is broken? Best will be if someone would write if he also noticed this thing. If I am alone in this I will have problem.
Maybe it's the "click" sound when the screen goes to sleep?
Settings> Sound> Screen Lock Sound
It is hardware sound for sure
So I made short video with my problem, please look at it. Thanks

Some news. I went to local samsung service center, they looked at it and said it could be something in camera and it is something which they will repair/change(but i bought phone in other country so it was just info). However I went to electro shop and try knocking on camera of some nexus and that camera was doing same thing. So I guess it is ok and it should make that sound, but I am still curious if someone else noticed it.
I'd have to guess (and from what I heard others say) is that it's the autofocus lens of the camera? Mine doesn't have that noise but it does get a faint vibration and sounds as if someone hit the string on a guitar if i hit it or put it down on a table.
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.
I love just about everything about the phone, especially the camera. However, the one thing that drives me crazy is the aggressive/crappy noise suppression on video recordings with stock camera. (i.e. - the so-called 'underwater' effect...after the first 2 secs you'll hear it kick in. If you record with just a tv playing across the room, it won't pick it all up perfectly; it wavers, and it's totally unacceptable).
So, you say, why don't you just use XCam? Well, I do. And I do think it's great too. It does the sound perfectly. (as does Google Camera).
The thing is, I'm a nit-picky jerk, and I just happen to like the UI of stock camera better, that's all. I like having camera shutter and vid recording button one screen, instead of having to use a slider.
So my question is: since it's obviously possible to have good sound recording on videos, is there any way I can "fix" stock camera to make it so?
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.
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
