Even when my phone is muted this happens. Its a faint click or pop noise I'll sometimes hear coming from my phone when I click on something. This is with everything muted, its not the normal haptic feedback or anything like that. Anyone else have this issue??

From where does the sound originate? The speaker? The screen? The edge?
It sounds like your phone has a loose part. Clamp it firmly on the face and back, the make sure the torx screws on the bottom and appropriately tightened. Do not overtighten, for you risk cracking your phone from the stress that might occur from doing so.
Woah haha, I just created a thread about this

I have it too. Comes from the speaker. Mine happens about 70 percent of the time when clicking on something on screen. Interestingly, it doesn't happen when using the keyboard.
It must be something in software. Currently running the latest PA3 rom.

Occasionally, a horizontal or vertical line flashes on the screen very quickly and then disappears. Does anybody else have that? Is it anything to worry about, or does it not matter? Is it likely that a software update will fix this?
Thanks for any replies!
First, are you running a custom kernel or stock?

Damn it! I was seeing this on occasion and hoped that if I just thought I was crazy I wouldn't have to acknowledge it. Now I see it's not my imagination. It happens only rarely and it's really just a blip, but it is indeed weird. I just unlocked/rooted last night though so I'll have to see if it still happens now...
Always happens to me, really only noticeable on mostly white screens like in xda app.

First device had this issue, took it back (for many reasons), and have not noticed that little "subliminal" black line anymore.
Happens to me too, so far only seen it in the xda app, and in my browser while waiting for a Page to load that is taking a while.... I'm currently waiting for an exchange because I have a slight screen lift issue, but I doubt it will fix this black line problem, it is probably standard on these things. I guess I can live with it

I also get it a lot when playing an online chess game. It seems related to the apps used. Don't know what to make of it...

Could it be a memory leak or a GPU rendering issue as some have suggested? Many of us get this on the stock ROM with no developer menu changes.
I notice it too. I thought I was seeing things. It is not serious enough to give a crap though. I just hope it does not evolve into a worse issue.
It probably has to do with spotty Tegra drivers. I noticed it slightly on Chrome, but never on anything else.

I've seen this quite a bit also. Seems most prevalent for me when I'm using the GPS Status & Toolbox app from EclipSim, except in that app the lines are white.
I think you guys are referring to screen tearing. I have seen it a few times to I think in chrome. Pretty sure its not a hardware problem.

Every now and then, when opening an app or using the system buttons at the bottom, a very short "click" noise comes from the speaker. I have my N4 on silent/vibrate all the time and it is not an operating system noise that's meant to be there because its random. The best way to describe it is that it seems like the phone is "accidentally" starting to play a sound then stopping because its realised its in silent mode.
Anyone else getting this? Views on this problem?
(It happened again as I was typing this, so it happens through the the keyboard key presses as well)

Maybe you have to turn down the media volume.
I don't have a nexus 4, but I do get that random click noise on my incredible s as well, and from many different roms. I am not sure what it is, though.
Key press noise in settings turn it off may stop it the Gnex had this issue and still does

I get that click noise occasionally on my HTC HD2.
Running PACMAN 4.1.2 Jellybean at the moment.
I had this issue as well. I just turned off touch sounds and all is well.
I should note that I have keyboard sounds enabled and I do not experience the random clicking noise.
It seems to be isolated to the enabling of touch sounds, whether on vibrate or any audible volume.

I have the autofocus rattle issue as well. But I rarely if ever would shake my phone like that.
At this point I am just grateful that I got my phone, let alone got my phone earlier than projected. There are a lot of people that would love to hear the rattling of the autofocus on their N4.

Power Management
Ok... I think this is correct,
The audio chip like most other IC's are entering power saving mode milliseconds after you hear any audio so the small click is the powering up and down of the audio hardware... Many phones do this and many people don't notice it.
It's quite normal but if you have very good hearing it might bother some more then others.

Lol You're fingernail at the time you were using your s3 must have been short, thus allowing your finger as well to touch the screen without you noticing it. And now that you use your nexus 4, you're fingernail is long again..

I never said the screen sucks. I said the touch sensitivity does. And I was using my nail as a comparison between the s3 and n4 screen touch sensitivity.

Really? What are you touching then when you're testing the sensitivity? Do you even understand how capacitive screens work?
The sensitivity mod allows you to tap with the back of fingernail (i know i tried lol). It uses the earlier touch driver, but it does have the side affect of making the phone stall for a minute or more when first booted up; but if used with the supplied modded stock kernel you only have this happen once, also 'Matr1x' kernel also has this feature.

Even if I put my finger on the screen slowly without adding too much pressure it will not recognize the touch...try it.

Can you scroll on your home screen or click on apps with your finger nail?
Can you tap on an app with your finger ever so slightly, but definitely make contact with the glass, on an app icon or keyboard, and no action happens? Meaning the app doesn't open or the letter pressed isn't typed in...

I can scroll with the back of my fingernail, and can open apps with a very small amount of pressure. I don't see why I would use my fingernail anyway

Wow most of you are assholes.. I stopped reading after the 3rd negative response. Does anyone know what an example is? That is what the OP was saying when they said they could select things with their fingernail. It does not mean that they want it to do that but only showing an example of its sensitivity that their other phone had and I can tell you that you CANNOT do this on the Nexus 4 unless you push somewhat. My GS2 would scroll with no issues by grazing the screen I actually have to push before doing the mod.
There is a temp fix and it works fairly well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2028289

Hello guys, I just recognized this weird Noise today after clean install of vanir nightly 23/9 they appear after pressing any button, but I can only hear them when i have my headphones plugged in...

Don't panic. Nightlies are supposed to have bugs. Try a more stable version instead.
Nightly 25/9 Problem is still there, it seems to be "cracking" even when music is on, but the music is louder :-\ meaning it cracks when the track is changing while playing music...

Hello!
Try to switch off "clicking sound".

Only noticed this today. The rattle noise seem to come from the upper side of the device, maybe the camera or the sim card area.
I've searched a bit on the net, and saw that the nexus 4 and original Optimus G also suffer from this problem...

Its the optical image stabilization that is shaking i can confirm it all devices that have this shake!
Mine does. It is very soft and faint. Its the OIS. In all variants.
Yup. Normal. Every camera phone I've every owned does this. I have the VS980 Verizon. It's the camera sensor. It's normal.

I have the Sprint version and it does not rattle no matter what plane I shake it in and no matter how hard or soft I shake it. If it is normal to rattle than I guess I have the broken one. However, I am NOT taking it back for one that does rattle.
My gnex rattle really bad. Lg g2 not. Yes it s camera but I think is rather focus particle than ois
alright yea i can confirm it... it makes a very feint sound i couldnt really hear at first due to backround noise haha sorry if i caused confusion
