Guys had my phone for about a week.
Im not too sure if this has been happening since i got it or not..
But if i gently shake my device it feels like something is loose around the camera module or in the camera
Can anyone confirm if this is a known thing?

That's normal. The rattle you hear is the auto focus mechanism moving. My S5 does that too as do several others.

Hi.
I've got a weird thing with my phone (i9505). when i tap the screen at the top, or even next to the speaker, it sound like something is loose. Screen works just fine, touch also.
Does anyone else have this?
Could be manufacturing defect.
Should i return it and ask for a replacement?

Nope. Definitely isn't normal. Doesn't happen with mine.
Well. Since you guys dont have the problem i guess i'm going to ask for a replacement. Thank you all for the answers

I'm not sure if it's what you describe but I noticed that when tapped a bit "harder" or put to the table with a little force, there is a slight vibration which feels like something is mounted on "rubber"...not sure how to describe...it's more like a part has a buffer which prevents it from being damaged. It really might be the camera lens or some other part swinging and I don't think something is broken.
My S3 also hadn't that kind of feedback when tapped. However it doesn't make any noise so I'm not sure if it's what you mean...but also it might be that same part just being broken in your phone if it's rattling.
Probably just the vibration motor. If you hold the back to your ear and tap the front, it sounds hollow (or like a drum).

Try tapping the same area on a display s4 and see if you hear the same thing. A real display too not a dumby phone.
My htc Dna did this and it was the lens. Verizon brought out a brand new dna and it did the same thing.... Lol good luck

Virtually every device forum on here as the same thread.
Its part of the camera lens that moves internally is the answer on every thread.
Noticed the lens rattle too. Sounds unnormal, but I went to the Shop and the Galaxy S4 there had the same "issue" while tapping on the upper Display Area.

I just went to the ATT store for the same reason. There is a plastic cover over the camera lens. Peel it off, the noise goes away..
There is no issues never has been, never will be. Its the autofocus in the camera.
That's why I set issue in quotes It's a constant sound while using the S4 and tapping the top of phone. On my S4 sadly loud, but according to the store no reason for a warranty exchange.

some of my friends have this phone and it only happens to mine for some reason. maybe a faulty handset?
it sounds like the vibrator part inside the phone is faulty does it vibrate when phone is on ?
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda premium
the phone is perfect apart from that noise.
although i did notice if i shake it it does vibrate for no reason.
but yes i think the vibrator is faulty or something inside is loose
The camera can make that noise if it is having trouble focusing, does your camera work OK, can you tell what part of the phone the noise is coming from?

Thats normal, is the autofocus sensor, it does that when the camera is off, try it with the camera app open and it should not rattle, because is in use.
S3 and S4 are the same

Lol sorry I have a really bad ear for things like this at least we can say its normal lol
I just posted about this in AT&T S5 forums. It is very annoying, but it doesn't do it at all when the camera is in use. So its normal. Guess its just part of the new ISO cell technology.
i get nose from the front cam
I never noticed this either till i read this forum.
my noise also goes away with the camera on...very interesting....
Very annoying isn't it lookingnon the forums seems common so normal but still annoying

so it's a software issue? I noticed this on Day 1 when I received my shipment on Thursday! This is very annoying! My S4 never did this! Only on the top part of the phone.. really odd. How can the camera cause a hardware rattle? really weird.

It is pretty common in smart phones, my Nokia 1020's Optical Image Stabiliser's ball bearings would also rattle when not in use.

I seemed to have this issue with an old V10 but I thought maybe after 2 years the motor just got old. This phone is still new and I have lost all vibration function. Has this happened to anyone else yet or does anyone know if there is something I can do to confirm a defect/fix?
Have you used Smart Doctor app to diagnose and see if it picks up anything?

I'm looking for that app and only finding things for human health...do you know the company name?
Are your sure it's not an setting or something software related? If a factory reset does not resolve then you likely have an hardware problem. I had a hardware issue on my G5 like that. Motor didn't work for weeks, then one day I dropped it worked fine ever since.

Lucky you. I wish mine breaks I hate the vibrator in Android phones. They all feel so cheap. I want it gone when unlocking the phone too but I can't. It makes the phone feel cheaper than it looks with its poor vibrator feel (and sound).
Happened to me last night, LG G600S

Yes. Or at least I believe so as when battery saver engages the finger print sensor also stops providing vibration feedback.
Sent from my LG-H872 using Tapatalk
launch lg g6 (LG-H871 rev 1.0) - opening weekend. Vibrate function completely died yesterday.
Using vibrate app to test - no results on manual press. shaking the phone yielded no results. Gonna get a replacement.
Glad to know Im not the only one getting this issue
Did you manage to find a solution? Mine just started doing the same. Vibration stopped, checked with vibration test apps, booted in safe mode, factory reset and nothing. I'd rather not send the phone for repair and warranty is out of the question.
Damn I'm not happy to see this thread. Mine seemed to have stopped today. Not sure why or how. I'm gonna have to do some digging and see what's going on
Mine just started the same thing. No vibration at all!
Same issue here. Vibration stopped working, no way to get it to work again.
Mine also has stopped. No feedback from the keyboard, fingerprint sensor or vibration from calls/texts.
I plan on reaching out to LG today to see what I can figure out.
Anybody have any luck on finding a fix yet?
Can you guys please also share your model number- European, US, single or dual sim, bootloader unlocked or not, rooted or not, any particular action after which vibration stopped working.
Thanks in advance.
I know that this is really going to help anyone, but someone on Reddit had the same problem, then it started working again.
