I recieved my HD2 yesterday from VF UK. This is a serious device, beautiful, sleek and powerful. However the Haptic touch vibration sounds strange? It sounds like there is something loose within the device itself, actually sounds a little like a blown speaker! Usually haptic touch doesn't make a sound it simply vibrates. Has anyone else experienced this? Should i send my device back?
Searched but couldn't find anything!!
Cheers DB
hi, i had 2 hd2 til now, the first was from htc and the second from t-mobile so i can compare. the tmobile one acts similar to yours. it sound like the motor wich makes the vibration jumps out of his monting point and ist hitting some metal parts. i wont return the device because the noise is only at the end of vibration and not that loud. it is more that it feels strange in the hand. as long as it stays like that i can live with it, because the rest is working well.
regards mad

Hey everybody,
I purchased a Pure last Sunday, and have noticed that the vibration doesnt feel as "solid" as i'd like it to.
A big pet peeve of mine was that my fuze made a lot of noise when it vibrated because the two halves (if you want to call them that) (screen and keyboad) buzzed against each other. I was really hoping to have a feel on the pure similar to the iPhone where its an inaudible vibration (the way it should be).
My Pure vibrates and it sounds like something is rattling around inside, not like its physically shaking the device. Anyone have any similar comments or different experience? I'd like to go swap my pure out with AT&T if it means I'll get a quieter vibrate... Thanks!

If the sound comes by the camera that is normal. Like if you move or tap the back of the phone. Its the auto focus.
I it's not that then IDK. All I know is that the phone doesn't vibrate enough form me and I've never had noise problems. Not even from the camera when vibrating.
I use this (Touch Response) It works great and gives for better tactile feedback. You can set the intensity by making it vibrate shorter or longer. My prefered settings are in the first post I made. (The First Post LOL)
yeah, i used touch response for my Fuze. its hard to tell where my rattling is coming from, maybe i'll swing by the store and get a demo unit to buzz...
I have a weird rattle as well, if i tap the back of the top of the unit it makes a rattle sound. Sometimes when it vibrates the sound is odd too so i assumed that the rattle was that. Is that what ur rattle is like?
I took it to carphonewarehouse and they were like send it off to HTC to get it fixed, would take 2 weeks so i was like hmm its working fine atm so dont worry.

That rattle your getting is the auto focus camer. It is normal. Use the camera and you can here it move and fixate when you take a pic. It's like that when not in use.
Hi,
Just got my Desire HD today and it's all good except I've noticed a rattle when the vibrator kicks in, ie when you're entering text for a message etc that is a very different sound to the actual vibrator itself. Has anyone else noticed it?

Dude! have the exact same Issue! I was going insane, because i thought it happened after i dropped my phone. But You're saying you have it and your phone is new. Anyone else?
My vibration motor failed last Friday. Makes a scraping/clicking/whining noise depending on how I hold it. Never dropped and kept in a HTC leather pouch all the time.
HTC UK quoted 28+ days to repair as "there is a backlog of repairs, due to us moving repair centres". Told them to fcuk right off, not waiting that length of time.
Twisted Phones4U's arm (who I bought the handset off) and they reluctantly agreed a replacement.
I'm still waiting for that, as the first replacement had extremely poor fitting covers, both battery & SIM/SD card.
Sorry to hear that andy. But the issue we are describing is the vibrator producing a rattling "click" sporadically when delivering haptic feedback. It's close in sound to an ipod keypress osund (LOL, didn't know how to describe it otherwise). It's a minor issue, but it's driving me insane! We want to see how many people have noticed it, and if there is a solution/workaround
Same issue here - worked fine for the first week of owning the phone and since then the vibrate function rattles so loud it's embarassing so I avoid using it altogether (not to mention it's a horrible high pitched sort of sound).
I have, however, noticed that if I gently squeeze the left and right sides of the phone and test the vibrate function it works correctly as it's meant to (I try to avoid doing this often as I'm scared I'll damage the screen by putting too much pressure on it). It's almost as if the vibrate motor gains some breathing room and space for movement.
This leads me to believe that either the various removable covers are no longer a decent fit (and they were a pretty bad fit to begin with) and are causing the rattle or the whole case has warped somehow causing the vibrate feature to play up.
I'd be interested to see if any other people confirm this to be an issue.
I have baught my Desire HD around 6 months back. Even my phone gives rattle sound (Something like there are some loose part inside). I don't remember if I have this issue when I bausght the phone, But I am facing this since long time.
In some threads they say the metal ring around the camera could be loose and it rattles when the phone vibrates. Maybe it could be that but my phone vibration is weak but normal.
there comes more and more a louder sound when the phone is vibrating. but when its in my bag, its sometimes better i hear it a bit
Hello there everyone,
is anyone else experiencing this weird phenomenon:
everytime haptic feedback frequency is high, e.g. while fast typing messages, I'm hearing besides the vibrating buzz also some clicks, and they become louder the shorter the intervals between the pulses. When I wait a little after hearing it and touch a key again, the clicking is gone but as soon as they follow up each other a little bit faster it's hearable again.. Can anyone check if this happens with them too? I can't remember I was hearing this sound too when I first used the phone, just wanted to know if something's wrong in the earpiece. I know the vibrator is situated at the bottom of the phone, the noise however is coming from the earpiece.
Thanks in advance!

No I haven't also, the phone is completely set to mute. But if the guy of the second answer doesn't have his touch sounds on neither, everything's OK with me just wanted to know if it was abnormal
Thanks!
Has anyone else noticed the earpiece speaker rattles/vibrates during calls on their Note 4? Its not terrible, but its defo noticable and really annoying. I expected a perfect new phone. Was wondering if this is a general issue before I swap handset?
I havent noticed but could it be the camera module, hold phone close to ear and shake gently, same noise?
I'd say go for a replacement, mine does not make any obscure noise, my 1st note 3 however had an obnoxious vibration from the speaker.
Looks like I will have to go for a replacement I think. Theres no sound coming from camera. Thanks for the suggestion though. I even tried taking the back off the phone to see if it was that vibrating slightly, but no different. Tried pressing against top part of pbone too as thought this may firm up any loose parts, but had no joy. Its a pain as just set all settings as I wanted and really wanted to avoid replacement. Oh well lol. Thank you for your reply, appreciated!
Finally managed to change phone after store got new stock in. Turns out I had a faulty handset. New one is perfect, no unwanted sound from earpiece at all!
Hi,
Do you feel the same as I, so the vibration in Galaxy S8 is too weak?
Is it a known issue? Is there any way to make it stronger?
I don't have any case, and the vibration is on max, and I have already played with the vibration patterns.
Thanks.
Is someone here has a similar problem?
If the phone is on something soft for example or in my pocket, I hardly ever feel it.
It's not weak. Have you turned up the vibration in setting.
I can even hear my phone vibrate when my friend is typing on it, and i'm like 1-2 meter away from it.

Of course it turned on. All are on max.
Only when it's on a hard surface I can feel/hear it.
Maybe I missing something or other setting, or there is actually a real problem?
I wouldn't call i weak , however my htc 10 was way better for vibration! It was almost too strong ha The s8 is weaker but not weak! My only issue with vibrate is that once you disable vibrate.... its disabled for ALL sound modes! So lets say i turn off vibrate but later i attend a meeting and i want to put my phone on silent but i want my phone to vibrate.... it wont and theres no way to adjust it for each different sound mode! In fact even if i select the sound mode "vibrate" it wont vibrate once you turn vibrate down/off then its off universally! This sucks as with EVERY phone i have ever owned it was always something you could adjust for each individual sound mode/profile!
But if the phone is placed on some papers you don't notice that something happened.
It wasn't like that with the previous devices.

I TOTALLY agree - vibration is WAY TOO WEAK. Rarely feel it when phone is in my pocket and the only time I do hear it is if it is on a hard surface. I wish there was a way to download an outside vibration. I hope someone can answer this.
I dont want to know what yall are doing with your phones ?️?️?️?️

I opened this issue when the phone was new, and the situation is pretty the same today.
As I said for notification that using vibration you almost don't notice it, only when there is a phone call, and also it's too weak. Only on hard surface you can notice it.
