Hi guys... I receive my phone today just like many of you here and noticed if you tap your finger on the back and side of the camera it has a rattling noise like something is loose... I think this is the vibrator, but just wanted to find out if anyone else had experienced it as well and if this is normal?
Ok guys.. after a lot of searching around mainly on the Nexus One forums I can confirm that its normal for your phone to have a little rattle... its the autofocus on the camera..
well I have the same rattling noise... at the beginning I didn't mind it as it was only noticeable when I was tapping the back of the phone.
However in the past 2 weeks I noticed that if I set the in call volume to one of the last loudest 3 levels, I can't even understand the other person, because of that rattling noise...
Anybody experiencing the same thing?
Hey all anyone have an idea why the Note 2 has a nice big speaker but hide it behind plastic with only two small slits to let the audio out? Seems a little bit of an odd design decision.
Issue I'm having is vibration through the backcover when volume is at 70% anyone else noticed it? Not a deal break on an otherwise outstanding phone. Just a curious design decision.
I keep the vibration off so no ai havent noticed anything like that yet. But I do like how nice and loud the speaker is.

I think the OP meant that there is noticeable sound vibration through the cover at higher volumes. But yeah...It makes me wonder why Samsung decided to just have two small opening splits for the speaker. They should have just kept it open like the S3.
It still works better then the old note. Dont go as mute if you cover it with your palm. Seems they let it leak out from more places then just that 2 small slits. I can also get small vibrations but speakers usually do vibrate so i dont find it odd.
well, i almost have my note II for a year and a half now. and i started making more phone calls recently. at first people could hear me crystal clear. until there was an official rom update. after that time the microphone gain was low in conversations and recordings using voice recorder. now i have to hold my phone in my mouth while screaming for people to understand me. is there a way to adjust the gain on the microphone? it is not a hardware problem i think, cause when i scratch the phone it is extremely loud. but as soon as the sound source is more than a couple of centimeters or an inch, away. the volume drops to almost zero. i have noise suppression disabled.
allrighty then! fixed it, there was some oily residue stuck in my microphone hole, i thought it was the membrane of the mic. well, after I poked a needle in it, people can hear me again. hope this solution helps you all!
Hi Everybody,
is anyone else noticing the speaker grill hole aren't completely drilled through?
Also,
much more importantly,
is anyone else hearing a metallic grating noise when sound is played through the speakers? This isn't just high volume distortion, its constantly present even at low volumes. Very shrill, ratchety, and really annoying. Hoping to return and get a new unit if I'm not the only one with these problems.

I can't speak to the noise you're talking about, but the speakers not being drilled all the way through has been discussed several times before. The speakers don't go all the way across, so there's no need for the holes to be drilled all the way through. The extra holes are just cosmetic.
In my particular case, the camera is the culprit. It seems that the black piece inside the metal square chassis rattles when you tap it. When the vibration motor is active, it rattles the camera inside. Just sharing since it seems this issue has popped up a couple times.
Only solution I can think is to take out the black camera piece from the chassis and maybe stuff it a little tighter or order a new replacement, but the camera could be made that way. I'll take it apart again later today to see if there is some space for small paper or something to keep it still.
I've been getting this rattle for awhile now and was wondering what it was. Between the touch screen and bootloop, this is the third strike.
I also have a sound from the sound vibration motor, but its not so much a rattle sound, more of a beeping/squealing sound. Is this normal? Its not very loud but it annoys me when typing in a quiet room. Remember I had the exact same sound on my last LG phone so maybe its an engineering thing or the brand of vibration motor.

I noticed this on the forums too. I listened for this but couldn't find it. If I put my ear really close to the motor I heard a small whine, but it seemed like it was something else rather than the motor because it was constant. I will say the rattle could sound higher pitched to others depending on movement. My sound is a small rattle but I could see how maybe it could vary to a squeaking or squealing noise to some.

This is how mine sounds, mic is right next to the phone so its louder than during normal use. You have this to?

The camera has Optical Image Stabilization. Packing the gaps will stop this working. The rattling is just the camera moving around.

Did you listen to the sound in my video? You have that to? Its mostly when using haptic feedback on home and back buttons and the third button down at the bottom
