Ticking sound from speaker?

[rob62158]

I upgraded to the 2.2 version of android and now have a weird thing going on. When in a quiet room I can hear a ticking sound coming from back of the unit this occurs even with the sound turned off. Any ideas? I don't really have a lot of apps installed just angry birds, Jorte, Grades, Documents to go, and Office suite lite. Ive checked and can find no reminders active.

A quick use of the Search Forum feature you'll find this has been discussed previously. The issue was traced to the WiFi antenna wire crossing the speaking due to a poor design or lack of tape holding the wire. There is no fix other that to request a replacement tablet if within the one year warranty.

Thanks I searched for ticking but didn't think to search for crackling. Will see if I can relocate or insulate antenna wire.
