Weird problem with iPhone

So I've been noticing lately that my iphone does something really weird and was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem:

I'll type on the keyboard and random letters will have a LOUDER click sound than the other letters. There doesn't seem to be any specific pattern or reason.

So it'll sound something like... click, click, click, click, CLICK, click click click click click CLICK click click CLICK click click

My phone is jailbroken so maybe it's some package I installed, but it seems to have started randomly....

@VZiPhone

I noticed also when I use the dial pad to call someone the key inputs for the numbers do the same thing. Does yours do the same thing? Also have had any call quality issues? My friend last night on the other end said my voice was getting louder and quieter and louder and so forth. I don't know if this is related or a coincidence, but it has me worried.

Oh, no. I have a 3GS. Was just trying to give ideas.

But it seems to be only Verizon iPhones that have this problem? I don't think I've ever heard of this before.

Mine does this once in awhile as well. Sometimes when I enter my passcode to unlock the phone the clicks are very loud and still loud for the first app I use with the keyboard, then they are normal.

I've noticed this too. My thinking is that it has to do with the placement of your palms while typing. My hands cover up part of the speaker on some letters and not on others.

I've noticed the clicks are louder when it corrects a word I typed. After a couple of clicks, it goes back to normal volume.
