iPhone 12 Pro Lock Sound Issue

iphone 12 Pro With 14.2.1

This has been the problem since out of the box. I have Never used MagSafe. Still have the same issues with notification sounds on lock, keyboard And iMessage. most of the time I will get s text and Never get a sound at all!

Also took off my case. And Still have the issues.

I reboot, soft and Hard reset.....problem returns quickly.....

it is Clearly a Software Bug.

256mb 12pro max, no case (or MagSafe products) noise altered approx 2-3 days after receiving and before buying and using MagSafe charger, updated software still same issue after update to 14.2, got new MagSafe charger after update so this didn’t affect my phone.

All I can say is that I've only experienced the "clack" lock sound when I first used an official Apple magsafe leather case.

I decided to take the case off my iPhone 12, did a soft reset to return the lock sound to normal, then used the phone for a couple of days to see if it returned on its own and thankfully it didn't.

For me, something is happening when the phone senses that a magsafe accessory has attached itself to the phone (whilst turned on).

Since going through the procedure I mentioned above, it's not returned. My guess would be that if you attached and detached a magsafe accessory, such as a wallet or charger then it is highly likely the "clack" sound will return. Unfortunately, I don't have either so I'm unable to give a definite answer to that one.

I agree! I will also say this again, I have never used MagSafe, ever. My sound issues began right after my update. It is also not limited to just the lock screen and keyboard. I also I have the same sound issues with iMessages and with mail notifications! Therefore it is not a MagSafe issue alone.

This has nothing to do with the magsafe as i am using it without the magsafe case or charger. The sounds include lock sounds and keyboard clicks. They are reducing which has been the issue for me since i opened the box and not because i had magsafe. I am now wondering whether i should go back to my iphone 11 because atleast it is not annoying me when i lock or type it.

Most people commenting really aren't that bothered however, like me, probably feel that if you pay good money for something, no matter what it is, it should work properly and if it doesn't then the manufacturer should know about it incase they can let everyone in on a "fix", especially when Apple set themselves up at every launch with their infamous phrase "The best iPhone EVER!" LOL perhaps some caveats on that...

The best iPhone ever with a slightly more yellow screen and sounds that may go a little haywire.

- it is but a minor irritation, a soft reset has worked for me, only bought it because I'm fed up of not being able to answer phone calls on my iPhone X - screen freeze!

I think that's a good approach, it's a mild irritation, but overall the phone is fantastic!

I see it this way: nothing in life is ever perfect, even an Apple iPhone. If it was individually handmade then I would expect perfection. The reality is, that're mass produced in their millions, albeit to tight parameters and quality controls, but (excuse the pun) you're bound to get the occasional "bad apple" in the orchard!

With all due respect nobody is consumed with this. It is just a discussion where everybody is sharing their problems and solutions. So lets not connect this to something which is unrelated like first world problems or third world problems. Your given solutions are not helpful at the moment.

If i am not able to give any help is because all of the people have already given here and there is nothing new for me to add. On the other hand you sir are stating things that most of them are not able to do. So unless you have something that actually helps everyone i would suggest you keep your comments to yourself. And please find a dictionary if you dont understand the meaning of a discussion.

Noticed this issue as soon as I got my iPhone 12, keyboard & lock sounds volume variation and the magsafe animation that make the lock sound go crazy (loud click). Plug in a magsafe accessory like the charger without power that will not trigger the magsafe animation and your lock sound will stay normal so it's related to the software. As for the system volume variation I get the same issue with the iPad Air 4. Apple dev team should read their own boards to fix things...

and now, back to our program .......

does anyone else have sound problems besides the keyboard and lock screen? If so what other sound issues are they affecting?

As I have said before, it is affecting my lock screen and keyboard sounds however, it is also affecting my iPhone 12’s text messaging notification and mail notification sounds.

as I stated before, I have never used Mag safe but have the same issues as those that do use mag safe.

I find that if I go into the settings and change the sounds of notifications that the problem will go away for a brief time, but returns within an hour or so of using my phone.

Does anybody else have these issues?

I perfectly understand the meaning of discussion.

I question whether you understand the meaning of providing help to others and the sharing of advice?

You are a rude individual who has nothing to offer but negativity and angst. Whatever help has been shared, you have quickly dismissed it. You have not thanked anyone who has offered assistance.

i have not experienced that issue other than locking and keyboard. Also another thing i noticed is when you start typing the sound starts increasing. Same is the case with locking it. Also i have tried turning off the lock and keyboard sound but experienced the same problem as yours it returned after 15 mins.

My issue was isolated to the Lock Screen sound. The issue started when I removed and put back my leather MagSafe case. Note: When I initially put the case on, my iPhone was off and I had no issues.

Toggling the setting didn't address the problem.

Powering off and back on addressed the problem.

I have not removed the case since then. And I haven't experienced the issue again.
