Screen taps sounds - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

Despite having screen taps turned off, when tapping on Start and any menu items, I still get the 'click'.
All other screen taps are silent.
Is it this way for everyone? Is there a fix for this?

Those taps are windows event sounds. You can disable them by unticking the Events(warnings, system events) in Sounds & Notifications. Ofcourse you'll lose all other events.

Thanks Miguel, that sorted it.

Start Menu Screen Tap Sound

Anybody knows how to get rid/change the sound events associated with tapping the Start Menu and any of the items in its pulldown menu? These sounds cannot be disabled in the Screen taps control of Sounds & Notification. Thanks.
you can normally get rid of the sounds by unchecking the box for "Events (warnings, system events)...which can be found in the sounds and notification screen....
cheers
Didn't know that! Thanks.
change today menu sounds?
can you change the today menu sounds ? i.e. when the menu drops down, closes.
or are you ulimited to changing sounds only for the predefined events such as email/sms incoming...activesync etc?
I've tried before, and you can't get rid of the initial start menu sound, but if you go into the windows dir and locate all the .wav files, you can change the rest of them.
Though you'll find the sound for the first start menu sound amongst those and overwrite it, it won't work.

Screen Taps

Does anyone know how to turn off the annoying "tap" sound when you select the start menu? I don't want to disable any other sounds just the annoying tap when you use the stylus to tap the screen.

Two simple questions about audio/vibrate...

...so simple the answers remain elusive.
How do you stop a tone being played when you press the start button or select certain items? I've searched in sounds and notifications but I can't see anything there, I have standard taps disabled.
Secondly, how do I get the phone to vibrate for an incoming call - I want it to ring as well as today I was almost caught out because I didn't hear the phone ringing. There is a vibrate option in sounds and notifications but I'm not sure exactly what this one is for.
Thanks,
John
First answer:
Go to Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications
then uncheck Screen Taps. Or You have third party
program like WisBar?
answer second:
Push "Green Phone button" -> Menu -> Options...
and choose Vibrate and Ring in the Ring type window.
Screen taps are already unchecked, I don't have any third party programs at all installed. It's only certain events that trigger the noise, such as tapping the start button and then choosing settings but then tapping the tabs in that folder say, will not generate any noise.
Thanks for the vibrate answer, that's it sorted.

You should be able to silence the Start Menu and its items' one by disabling...
Start > Settings > Personal tab > Sounds & Notifications* > [ ] Events (warnings, system events)
If that doesn't work, try a search on this forum for "start menu sound" (no quotes), and you'll find lots of older threads on how to replace the sound with your own sound ( which, if you use a completely silent wav, is 'no' sound %) )
That did the trick, thanks muchly!

Align Screen keeps popping while playing games.

It seems as though there is a shortcut that keep activating the align screen dialog. Is there anyway to disable this. Something with the text message button and d-pad

touch screen sensitivity problem needing double taps?

ok, so ive noticed that sometimes when i pull down the notification shade that my first tap doesnt get recognized....but if i close the shade and reopen, then my finger press gets recognized. or when i try to tap on one of the 'recent' applications section of the shade, i need to double tap sometimes.
sometimes to a lesser extent, i notice this in the market when i press the search box too. most times though everything gets recognized with a quick tap instead of needing a firm delayed tap or double tap.
anybody think this is a bug?
ive looked around a little and nobody seems unhappy with the touch sensitivity/grounding so not sure what to do...
but ive never had it happen on the lockscreen or launcher bar or other programs that i can remember either.
This happens to me sometimes. It doesn't bother me. It may be a small bug but I suspect it is actually the trackpad pulling focus. Sometimes the trackpad will detect a slight input and place focus on a nearby screen icon or menu item, depending on which type of screen you're on. The focus highlight is subtle and hard to notice so that "first tap" might actually be your finger pulling focus back to your intended selection. Your second tap opens it.
