No Clicking Sound When Pressing Buttons Or Opening Apps

[SC Headbanger]

Suddenly today my Moto DROID stopped making the "clicking" sound that it makes when you press buttons to make selections, or open Apps. It still vibrates, but no sound. I've made no changes, and the box is checked in my sound settings. Any idea why this is happening, or is anyone else experiencing this? I've restarted the phone, taken the battery out, unchecked and rechecked the box several times to no avail. This feature is VERY important to me on a touch screen phone, and I really want it back. I haven't done a factory reset yet because I have so many contacts I'd have to re-enter and such. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Your contacts are stored on gmail. Did you get the 2.1 update or not?

 

[SC Headbanger]

I don't think so. Phone shows Firmware version as 2.0.1.

Yeah man a factory reset does not erase any contacts. Maybe turn the volume up?

 

[SC Headbanger]

Volume is all the way up. Like I mentioned, I haven't changed anything. It was working fine this morning. And since this afternoon, no click.

I also no longer have the shutter sound when using the camera!

Sounds to me like the phone is in Silent mode. It should be rather obvious being that there would be a speaker icon on the notification bar with an "x' through it but in any case, you can turn Silent mode on and off by holding down the power button and selecting it in the list. I mention this because even if audible selection is enabled, silent mode will silence both audible selections as well as the camera shutter.

No, the phone's not in silent mode. All other sounds play fine (ringer, notifications, ect). It's just the click and shutter sounds that won't make their noises. I guess I'll take it to Verizon and see what they have to say.

heres what I have found, that clicking noise is tied to Media volume no idea why but try opening a media app like music player or something and turn the volume up, my guess is its all the way down

Yeah, go to Settings, Sounds & Display, Media Volume, and push it all the way to the right.
