Random click noise when tapping screen? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sometimes when tapping the screen, I'll get a very feint click or tap noise that sounds like it comes from the screen. Like its a physical sound not coming from the speaker which is turned all the way down. Anybody else get this? I searched but I couldnt find anything.

try using some pressure at the bot of the Nexus. Most people have this issue with the body itself. It may appear if u hit the lcd, but it is possible that it is caused by another finger holding the phone at the bot of the body

could be some glue or adhesive from the screen/digitizer coming loose. Also could be the speaker anyway, because if it's turned down it doesn't seem to matter. Some are reported to make static/clicky sounds regardless of being muted or not.

SO..it seems it's a problem with the Note and there's no way to really fix it (I don't mean ways to circumvent it)? Is it due to the long size of the speaker on top?
It sounds like it's due to the Note having a good volume band. If it's bugging you, turn it down. That's not really a work around is it? More of a choice, and which is a good thing I thought?

I really had to check it was not still April 1. I do not see a 'loud' speaker as a problem, as you can simply turn it down. I do not find my note to be too loud. If yoh are using a custom rom tben it might be the rom that is amplifying the sound.

The speaker is not long at all. The grill is, but that makes little difference.
The real problem is that the phone is so damned thin! The ear-speaker happily blasts out of the back too.
What is irritating is that you still get the issue where if the grill is not well positioned against your ear you cannot hear well, even though everyone around you can
Turn!
It!
Down!
'nuff said.
No.. there is NO problem with the Note..
if people around you can hear it then would you not say that is a real obvious clue that you have the volume too loud..? turn it down...or.. get you one of these http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/7830/
problem solved.

[Q] Is this normal?

Guys, is it normal to hear some kind of a click when pressing down the screen? I did not notice it on three weeks since I' ve bough it but now I can hear this click on the left side of the screen, near the center of it. I am asking cause I have a Tab 7.0, the old one, and I checked it and it also have this click? But it is very annoying, as if the screen is not well fixed...
I have it on mine as well but mine is on the bottom two corners where the speakers are, noticed it a few weeks after getting tab, annoying but so far not affecting tab.

Try this. Open up your nexus 7. Lightly press on the messed up speaker. If it is the same issue I have you'll hear the speaker pop back in.

I think you're asking how to take apart the nexus 7? The easiest way to find out how would be to look for a YouTube video on opening the nexus 7. There are many.
How i did it... Slide your fingernail or an opening tool along the crease. The snaps holding the back in place should click apart. Slowly and carefully move your fingernail or tool around the entire device until the cover comes off. Be very careful not to break any of the clips on the lid or in the device.

Random "click" noise

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)

Media Volume
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.

Could it possibly be the autofocus that people are taking about?

It does sound like that . mine sounds loose when I tap that back glass everything seems to be working OK and not sure if I'll let it bug me just yet

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.

It seems like a touch sound issue.
Make sure you've got touch sounds turned off by going:
Settings > Sound > Touch Sounds (disable the checkbox)

This is normal, this is a mechanical component inside the phone that make the springy vibration when you enable vibrate on touch etc. So when you tab it, it make that springy sound, perfectly normal.
