When I press down on the trackpad on my MT4G, it emits the loudest clicking sound. The other four buttons emit a clicking sound as well, but nowhere near as loud as the trackpad (in the middle of those buttons). Why the hell is it so damn loud? CLICK CLICK CLICK! Luckily I don't have much of a need to use it, but when I do use it I find it quite annoying. I really have only used it to light up the display when it's off to then unlock the phone, instead of pressing on the button on top of the phone.
Anyone else experiencing this?

Unlike all the other volume related posts I've found, I seem to have the opposite problem LOL
When working, or late at night when everything else is dead quiet, I've been using my HD to listen to radio / youtube (ok, not strictly working then ), but I'm finding that even on the lowest setting, the volume is actually very loud.
One more down click on the volume buttons turns the volume off, but one click up from silent is too loud for background noise.
I know I could adjust it via the on-screen volume slider app, but that's just a faff!
Is there any way to adjust the volume control buttons so that it takes (say) 10 or 20 clicks to get from off to max, rather than just 3 or 4 as it does now?
Or perhaps I'm just getting old ("turn that racket down son" as my Dad used to tell me...)
Stupid thing is that with the Diamond you could also adjust the volume in the same way (taking steps of 3 bars in the volume overview) but when touching the screen you could increment/decrement with 1 bar accuracy, allowing much better volume control. When I try this on the HD, it skips 3 bars as well...
Argh why remove this feature??
dunno - but it's begining to do my head in...
I've resorted to digging out an old set of headphones which have a volume dial on them
Just tested the mp3 player and found the same problem, very annoying. Be good if someone could make a fix
If you're using Coreplayer, you could assign the volume button to control the volume up and volume down. In addition, in the setting you could choose whether to change the volume in 1% or 10% increments. I always use this option to get the EXACT volume that I want. This is very important when I listen to music before going to bed. With the 10% increment default, it is too loud for me to fall asleep even at 10% loudness, hence I always use this feature in Coreplayer.
Nice on eaglesteve, cheers
I wasn't using it, but at least I know now that I could

That works OK for me, can adjust to the single bar you click on with more resolution than the buttons - I also need to do this to get a low enough headphone level.
Has anyone noticed this: Everytime time the (back) speaker starts playing, you can hear a clicking noise. And when you stop playing music, sounds, etc. you can hear it click again (after a few seconds).
It seems like the back speaker gets tuned on and off on demand. When it's on, you can also hear white noise coming out of the speaker. It stops when the speaker gets turned off.
The clicking is quite loud...it's not so loud when using headphones.
It is either really quiet or non-existent on my phone, since i did not notice it yet.
The best way to test this is probably:
- Quiet environment
- Press the red button (in touchflo for example)
- The will cause a short click, the a beep sound is played...and about 3-5 seconds later you will hear the click again.
true it happens on mine too, never noticed it...
i did like you said, and when holding the phone speaker right to my ear i can hear the white noise and the "switch-off" clicking when the speaker is disabled. then the noise is also gone. But to notice this i had to go to another (quiet) room and hold it to my ear, its really quiet. maybe yours is louder...

Strange. I've been using my Jade for over a month now. Don't seem to experience that problem. No funny sound. Or maybe it's too soft for me to realise.
Thanks for your replies.
I recorded this effect by putting the speaker directly to the mic of my laptop.
Listen here: http://pasalacqua.de/tmp/touchclick.mp3
You can hear the click, then the beep, then the white noise, then the click again (to turn off the speaker).
I put the volume of my phone to low. So the click is actually louder than the beep.
I guess there could be bugs worse than this. But it bothers me when the phone plays system sounds like a simple beep. The click is louder than the sound...
I just wonder if it is a general bug or only a bug on my phone.
When I press the screen turn-off button on the top right side of the phone the speaker makes a "click" noise.
This is not the same sound that it makes when it types - it is more of an electrical discharge click or noise due to the speaker amp turning off.
Does anybody else have this happen when they turn the screen off with a quick click of the top right side button?
This seems like a really odd sound for the phone to make every time one turns the screen off.
thanks.
Both our Focus phones do this so I guess it's normal.
If you mean the clicking sound,
its an optional sound that plays when locking/unlocking.
see ringtones & sounds checkbox: Lock and Unlock
Hi, does anyone else's volume off click when using the rocker switch to turn the volume down sound a bit odd, it sounds like its too loud and is distorting the tiny speaker. Its more then you usual bloop noise I get a raspy click over the top as i the speaker is damaged in some way, had this since new, kept meaning to check this out.
I get it every time I turn the volume to max from off, but sometimes when I turn volume to zero from max, its like something is rattling in the speaker, hard to explain.
Hi, all. I actually don't have a Surface, but I do have a T100. I figured the Surface community would be far more active, and it applies to both platforms.
Is there a way to increase the volume of the on-screen keyboard 'click' sound? It used to be loud enough, but after updating the volume of the keystroke 'click' has been greatly reduced. I actually like the sound as it provides something of a replacement for tactile feedback when typing. I know where the option is to turn it entirely on/off, but I can't seem to find anything online about increasing the actual volume.
