Turn off tap sound when typing? Driving me nuts!

**melissasroja** · 02-20-2011, 07:41 PM

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to turn off the sound the keypad makes everytime you type a letter? Like the little click sound? When using swype it doesnt make a sound but when not using swype it does and its driving me nuts! Thanks.

Pull down you notification bar and hit the silent setting. Or you can try another keyboard like swift. I agree the sound is very annoying.

I'm not sure what the settings are in your phone, but some have an option to turn that off in the keyboard settings.

go to sound settings, vibration intensity....adjust there.
Same place on all 2.2 phones/tablets. same problem with evo....was wicked loud

I installed Swift and its great. Taking a little adjusting to the keys but at least the sound is gone!

This has been driving me crazy and after seeing this thread I did figure it out. I would only assume it's the same for most android phones.
Go to settings, language & keyboard, android keyboard and make sure sound on keypress is unchecked.

But alas the SGT uses a Samsung Keyboard and not the Android Keyboard. It also has Swype pre-installed, but I find it awkward to use on my Tab, but you could try it.

I personally installed GingerKeyboard on my Tab, same with both of my EVOs and my buddies Eris. So much better (IMO).

Like prezmater I just installed a different keyboard and turned the sound off in its preference, I like the , it's clean and has quite a few customization options.

Just turn the "System Volume" down to nothing. Basically, just do this when your SGT is on it's home screen. Hit the volume down arrow on the side, and the keypad clicking will go away.

Hello, I've have the solution! I just this phone yesterday and that noise had to go!

Here is what you do (tested only on htc evo 3d):
Go to settings
Then sounds
Turn audible touchtones off

The keyboard still vibrates but the clicking sound is enabled. Happy typing!

Thank you so much - I'd tried all sorts of things before discovering I needed to go to language & keyboard rather than sound settings.

**rpg007** · 02-05-2013, 05:22 AM

check your swype settings too

**CCoreJr** · 02-19-2013, 08:55 AM

Go Setting>Language and Input>the click the gear next to samsung keyboard>advanced> then uncheck the tey tap vibrations and key tap sound. Hope this helps

I am the odd woman out here, I want the sound...I figured out how to turn it on but I can barely hear it, turned up all my sound settings I could find and its still barely making any sound..how can I turn it up?

**Evar4life** · 03-26-2013, 10:14 PM

That worked for my Samsung Galaxy Note II. Thanks!!!
Settings - Language and Input - Samsung Keyboard (Click on the Gear Next to it on the right hand) - Advanced - Key-tap sound Uncheck.

**Brittany Hepworth** · 05-11-2013, 12:36 PM

This worked for me (S3) thank you! That sound was driving me nuts

That was what I was looking for. I had everything adjusted about right, and I couldn't get the stupid keyboard to quit making tap-tap-tap while I was texting.

Speaking of annoying, a person at the store still had their droid set to the robot voice "DROID" with every notification. She was also a text hound. I would say after about 20 times in 2 minutes, I started chewing my phone case and pacing the floor, so i wouldn't go to jail.
