  • Use a good quality protective case for the phone. It may stop or dampen the rattling sound.
  • Another temporary fix for the rattling noise is to disable the vibration option. You can do this by going to,
    • Settings – > Sound – > Keys -> turn off the options “Vibrate when Ringing” and “Vibrate on Touch.”
  • In order to turn off or disable the keyboard’s haptic feedback option,
    • Go to Settings – > Language and Input – > Google Keyboard – > Settings – > turn off the option “Vibrate on Keypress.”
  • Open the back cover and check whether the ratting noise occurs due to a loose button. You may place a tiny piece of tape or paper in the area between the back cover and the buttons, so as to dull the rattling sound.
  • If the issue persists, visit a service center for repair or replacement of the phone. The phone will probably be repaired if the problem is due to the vibrating motor.
