I just received my HTC one and found out that when it vibrates (opening the app drawer, typing messages...), it kinda gives a plastic-ish sound. Not a very solid vibration. Unlike my EVO 4G LTE, which has a pretty solid vibration. I was wondering if it's just me or it's my phone that doesn't act normal? Thanks
Same here. At first I thought it was because it was laying on my desk but it does it when I hold it as well. Not a big deal but slightly annoying.
I have the same issue. Its not the hugest deal. Its probably due to the type of vibration motor they use in the device. Coming from an iPhone its definitely noticeable because they use such a quiet motor. But overall its not a dealbreaker. Im still loving this phone

Are you talking about the touch sound you can toggle in the "sounds" settings?

It's the vibration motor rattling the main camera autofocus mechanism. Tap the back of the phone near the camera and you'll hear the same sort of rattle. The camera is meant to take the abuse, so it's annoying at best.
This thread should be kept alive...lol I just noticed the vibration noise discussed here...I'm a bit worried... Or should I not be long term?? Coming from a Samsung S2 SR

I have noticed this and to put my mind at ease I turned off all the vibration stuff accept when turning on. I flashed Fauxs kernel and turned the vibration to 100% and the sound is greatly reduced. I think it is due to the speed of the vibration motor. At any rate the combination helped greatly. On the down side kinda makes me feel like my phone is cheap

I apologize ahead of time if this has already been posted but I have looked high and low for a solution to this:
During a call, sometimes I move the phone slightly away from the phone occasionally and sometimes it is just far enough to turn the screen back on. I don't really like that end call is simply a button. I was wondering if anyone knows of a swipe or slide to end call function that way just touching the screen won't end/hold a call without a deliberate gesture. I read a lot of other forums and most people say "is your proximity sensor working properly." Short answer: yes because the screen still turns off if the proximity sensor is triggered but sometimes it doesn't. By the way I am running CM7 RC1.4 on my Thunderbolt. I feel like when I still had sense, there was some sort of swipe to end call but I might be imagining things. Any help is appreciated.

You haven't looked high and low.
If you had, you'd know that a simple can of air would fix your problem. Blow the air into the left side of your earpiece.

And yet again someone assumes the sensor isn't working... I was looking for a swipe to end call feature. Not a solution to a misbehaving sensor.

Well I know you don't like to be told how to fix your problem.
But if you fix the sensor, your problem would be fixed.
Duh.

wow. Well if anybody else feels like actually being helpful feel free to do so. I feel like I'm on after dawn's forums again.
I have this weird problem when headphones are connected and screen is on. Any screen activity, like scrolling or changing results in quite some static noise in the headphones. Since I have in-ears headphones this is quite loud and annoying. Does anyone else have same problem and/or solution for it?
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks
Moving to Q&A
Hmmmmm.......now that does sound weird. You think a vibration option is interfering?
don't think it's got anything to do with the vibration. basically if i touch the screen and keep finger on it without moving it - i start hearing some static. Moving it around the screen (without screen changing) makes the noise louder and if screen starts changing - like scrolling or some weather animation starts playing the noise becomes really annoying.
*whistles* When I was on my Hero I had a similar issue and just changed cords. It reduced the static but not by much, but I accepted it since it was a low end phone. But this is a high end one. It's amazing something like that has crossed over to the 3D. I hope we can find a solution to that.
Same thing here, I think its just something we have to live with.

hm that sucks... it didn't happen on my Nexus S, probably gotta try Galaxy S II and see if it's an HTC specific issue... Or LCD specific issue maybe since Samsung uses SAMOLEDs.
Just bought one but the haptic feedback vibrate when I press the touch key like home button is too weak and keyboard as well.
Any1 have the same issue? Any solution?

Mines exactly the same, prefer it to be softer

As a usar of CM7 on the Atrix, I know it (and some other ROMs for other phones) have the setting of how long the haptic feedback lasts. Take note, what you are experiencing isn't a "week", feedback, it's a short one, as phones don't really have the possibility of calibration in it's strenght.
Maybe future ROMs for the razr will enable this configuration...
My vibrate is weak too, was going to go to Verizon today to see if it is defective.
When a text or call come in it seems more like a fast jiggle than a hard vibrate...also when typing I can barely feel a vibrate at all (it is turned on)
Is this normal?
I see lots complaining about this. Remember the more vibrations it's going to drain battery faster. Personally I never used haptic feedback till now, the softer vibration is nice to me.

I have a feeling thats just how it is cause mine is too. Keep in mind it's a skinny phone!
Mine vibrates well but is a fairly loud noise when vibrating.

Mine seems to have enough vibration feedback, but what doesn't work is the "screen press sound" I called Verizon tech support for the heck of it just to hear what they would say, and told me I could exchange it. Anyone else having this issue?
A lot of this thread has pertained to haptic feedback, but what about regular vibrate notifications when the phone is in silent mode. My phone barely does anything at all. Even when I'm holding it in my hand it barely vibrates compared to the GSII or iPhone.
Is this just the way it is, or is mine defective?
I've literally missed every single call, text, and email that have come in. This is the only thing keeping me from loving this phone, but I have to say, it's a dealbreaker if I can't have the phone in silent mode and still know when something comes in.
I actually prefer the amount of haptic feedback the RAZR provides. I didn't much care for the keyboard feedback, but that was fixed with SwiftKey. Like Bond32 said, less vibration, less battery usage!

Has any one else found that the lights on the buttons only come on when it's really dark? When I'm in low light I can hardly see the buttons, I have to put my hand over the light sensor at the top to make them come on. It's as though the threshold to darkness needs to be lowered. Ideally the lights would be on all the time like my old Incredible S but I can't see that happening anytime soon.
I've spoken to HTC about this and of course their stock answer is that the lights work fine and it my be an issue with my phone but I have a couple of friends who own the original One X and they report the same issue. It's not a huge thing as I can usually hit the right button with out looking but it's pretty annoying - especially when showing it off to all my iPhone owning mates in a dimly lit pub...
Same here. Seems to need to be really dark before they come on. Anyone found any setting or app to sort this out?

Hy
It is normal .... And there are no setings for that.
The light goes on only if is realy dark or the Sun is shining on the Display.
And you can Prof if is something wrong with the lights by puting you Finger on the light Sensor ( other side from front cam )
If the light is Not going on then you have a problem.
Cheers

Thanks guys, so it seems that this problem is universal to the OX+ and not just my handset. Hopefully HTC will actually see that this is actually an issue and sort something out for the 4.2 build. A sensitivity slider would be nice or an option for always on - after all, how much power do them little lights use anyway?
Agreed that this is very disappointing. Obviously you can instinctively get it right after a while, but the whole point is that a smartphone of this standard should be as responsive as possible.

Hi, I used the search but I couldn't find anyone else having a problem like this so I'm asking right now!
I just got my HTC One 3 days ago and I absolutely love it! With that being said, I have noticed a strange click that seems to happen inside of the phone everyone and a while. I have tried turning off all the "button noises" in the settings and it still happens, it seems to happen often when I am typing but also happens at other times too. It's not terrible but it is a little annoying as I want my phone to be perfect
Oh and just to clarify it sometimes happen when I tough the screen and sometimes when I don't. So it nothing like a response noise.
Sorry for the block of text!
Thanks!
it is probably just the camera or autofocus sensor had the same problem on my old iphone and all the ones that i've had while changing out for a good one had the same sound

Under sound there is a option to enable touch sounds when making screen selection, it is a clicking type sound, do you have this enabled, drove me crazy for about the first 3 days
Sent from my HTC One using XDA Premium HD app
Mine has no clicking sound, but my autofocus is broken, going for a replacement today.
Mine has a weird click when the haptic feedback hits sometimes. I think it's just the vibrate motor kicking on.

^^ I think it is the the vibration kicking in or something. I have turned off all screen tough sounds and everything but it still happens. Like I said, it's not a huge deal but just slightly annoying. I'm going to try turning the vibration on touch off.
