All of the sudden, My home button is starting to make an odd, hollow tinny noise when I press it, almost like an echo inside the phone. Anyone else having this issue?
It's definitely not the intended noise apple added to make it seem more like a button.
iPhone 7, iOS 10.0.2
The Taptic Engine is defective, or loose.Take it to an Apple store for repair or replacement. If you have apple care they will replace it. The Taptic engine is not repairable, but can be replaced. Great care must be taken in replacement in iPhone 7 because or the water tight seal.
Yes. Weird vibration also felt along with the weird sound. I'm still with zero issues after the restore. I just swapped back over to level 2 tonight though so will post again if I experience the problem. But, so far, no more issues at all after restore from recovery mode.
Thanks for the tip about the haptic feedback setting! You're right, it's more of an annoyance than anything, and I can feel it in my hand. However, I doubt Apple will do anything about it because it doesn't affect the buttons functionality at all. Guess we're just unlucky.
I'm also having this problem where the home button makes a sharp springy sound. I'm debating on taking it to a service center because I cannot reproduce the sound as it is very random. However, i'm like super OCD about this and it annoys me to no end that there is a random occurrence of this sharp sound. Ugh.
Hi! I have the same problem. Almost the same problem. After i take the finger from home buton i can hear a noise in my speaker. Im not talking about the vibrating taptik thing. It is a noise in the speaker. It sounds like a click but it is not realy a click. This sound it was not present before 10.3.2 update. Could be something wrong in the update? My phone is new from the box. Today is the third day im using it.
(Iphone7 128gb jet black) Mine is at the same.. spring sound/feeling maybe once/twice a day it's not good enough from such an expensive phone!! Battery life has also deteriorated massively over the 11 months, its as bad now as my iPhone 4s was after 3 an half years...two/three times a day it needs to be charged and it's not even a year old!! APPLE should be replacing the batteries free of charge an sorting out this spring issue in the home button... I had an iPhone 4s before this and to be honest the only difference I ever noticed was naturally the battery (at the beginning not now) bigger screen and the camera!! Will I spend €850 on a new iPhone again?? Not a hope in **** if this is what I'm to expect..
I preordered my iPhone 7 on the first day, though, so I don't think that has anything to do with it
It can't be caused by which storage size you've got right? Was just thinning since I have the 128 GB and My friend the 32 GB.
Thank you. I powered off my iPhone8+ and the weird doing noise stopped.
Me too - exactly how you stated. Just started one day and no luck w haptic settings. It’s so loud and obnoxious 😡 Any luck fixing your? Thanks
Mine started once we bought an Apple TV too. Any luck? I’m not spending that money and my Apple care just expired 😡
Did you still have Apple Care? Mine just expired and this sound is driving me crazy
No Apple, that is not the problem and shouldn’t be ours...
Me too - did you get resolved ?
I tried the same thing twice and it hasn’t fixed yet.
