Ah I get it now, you want the dew drop sounds, but not the annoy click sound afterwards.
Does it happen when you hold the phone?
The back doesn't really sit flush against flat surfaces due to the speak guard slightly raised to stop the sound getting muffled, that might be the issue?

My Wizard Snaps At Me!

Just recently my wizard makes a loud sound when I tap on an option in the page menu, or whatever. The sound is so loud and it comes unexpectedly makes me jump out of my boots! Does anyone know what causes this and have experienced the same thing?

This and the fact that you have hardware clicks turned on in sound settings.

Nope, the volume was 1 notch below the center. This was the 1st thing I looked at after it happened. I guess I'm the only 1 it's happened to.
This actually happened to me a few times when i was on WM5, since i have switched to WM6 i haven't ever had this again. So i assume it is a rom glitch.

Occasional Popping Noise When Using Screen?

Sometimes when i press the screen to select something(ie. opening an app), a noticeable popping sound is heard. It happens a few times a day but it sometimes gets annoying.
What is the cause of this, i know it's not the camera focusing element.
You sure that it isn't just the touch sounds?

Yeah its not the touch sounds, its pretty faint and happens maybe 3/10 times.
This happens to me too. Im convinced that theres something wrong with my speaker because the sound happens only when i click on something that is supposed to make a sound (except its doesnt because its on silent). It also happens right before an audio file is played

I'm afraid it's a speaker problem and not some kind of bug.
Even when the phone is on silent I hear the popping, very very annoying.
Its a hardware issue. I had it on my first n4 that I had RMA because of the screen.
My replacement device does not suffer from the issue.

Yep, same here - and I just replied to two other threads that sound like the same issue. One person said it happened after upgrading to 4.2.2. I think (and hope) this is a software issue. I just got my new Nexus 4 today, so I hope it's not a hardware issue.
This is happening to me. I thought I was going crazy lol.
Hey Guys,
Thanks for this forum first of all, its awesome. I joined especially for this issue because it seems lots of people have this problem. I noticed this problem when i got my phone yesterday. I have noticed that even when the phone is on silent, the speaker just turns on even though its not suppose to since touch sounds should be off. You can hear this by listening carefully to the speaker.
I got solved of the problem doing the following:
1. Go to settings.
2. Device -> Sound
3. Untick "Touch Sounds" option.
4. No more popping sound problem , although you dont have touch sounds.
It seems that even if you put your phone on silent thetouch sounds are active but dont produce sounds and keeps the speaker on when you press buttons. Might be software problem.
I hope this is helpful

I don't think that solves it. On mine, this occasional click happens with any sound (for example, go into settings for messaging to select an alert sound. If a sound has not been played for a while, the first sound you try will have the soft "click" right before it. Subsequent sounds will generally not have it. So I do not think it is related to only the touch sounds.
I'd guess that the reason it only happens when a sounds has not played "for a while" is that the sound hardware is being turned on right before the sound occurs.

Ohh ok, I guess I had another problem. My problem was that I would hear a soft pop even on silent when hitting buttons.
But after you mentioned the messing alert and hardware being turned on. I noticed it now. I think you might be right, they might be related to the sound hardware being turned on

[Q] Haptic feedback clicking

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!

Uninstall the Timebomb app. j/k
In case it's not touch sounds but the vibration motor. I seriously had to get used to the beeping sound of the linear vibration motor as I come from a device that used a nonlinear vibration motor.

It's not when I touch the screen, more like when I open certain apps that use data, or when I send a text for example. Sometimes it occurs as well when I charge my phone.

Haha, wish that could solve the problem! The vibration motor could be the problem indeed, but then I guess that nothing can solve the problem, right?

Unfortunately there isn't. I simply disabled the haptic feedback vibration when using the keyboard.
Took me a while to get used to but its fine now.

Incoming calls - buzzing sound [video inside]

Hi,
I'm loving my OnePlus 5, but there is a strange behaviour with incoming calls. When the phone is ringing and vibrating, sometimes a really bad buzzing sound occurs every few seconds.
It doesn't happen with every call and I have absolutely no idea what's triggering it. I've thought about the vibration motor, but then it shouldn't only make that sound for some calls.
Anyone else with this issue?
Ok, I've done some tests and can easily reproduce the issue:
It happens when vibration is set to strong, like it is set default for calls, and the phone is lying somewhere. As soon as i touch the phone a little bit or take it in the hand, the sound stops. It cames definitely from the top (right?) of the phone.
It would be nice, if anyone could check if their phone makes the same noises. Either call your phone or simply go to vibrations settings.
I've made a video of the vibration sound on strong settings. Would anyone please be so kind to check it on his/her device? You can hear the strange noise pretty well.
OnePlus support told me it was normal.

Just tried on mine, doesn't have the issue, the support is clearly ****ing with you. If i had this issue, I would just get nuts

Thanks for your reply. I've set vibration to medium as a workaround. It would have been hard to believe every device is doing this ugly noise, especially since you hear it with standard settings for incoming calls.
Nevertheless I'd appreciate any further feedback wether his/ her device is affected or not.
Bro, I'd like to know if this issue got fixed for you? I am commenting because I started noticing this too.

I had to RMA the phone. Unfortunately it's the only solution.
I have 2 days left before my 10-day-replacement policy is over. You're saying, your replacement device doesn't have the issue?
