Wierdest discovery ever!
Alright, so I’m sitting here at my computer and hear a beep from my pocket. So I pull out my cell phone to check it out, and it doesn’t say anything on it. So I figured I had accidentally pressed a button. So I pressed another button to see if that was the sound it made. It sounded similar, but it was quieter. That’s wierd. So I decide to put it back in my pocket and push a button again. much to my suprise, the beep was actually louder! Now I’m really confused. So I took the cell phone out and beeped it, then covered the speaker and beeped it again. For some reason, the beep is LOUDER when I cover the speaker! That makes no sense! Even if the speaker is not the source of the beep, it shouldn’t get louder every time I cover it with my finger. This seems to defy the laws of physics.
If anyone reads this and knows something of sound waves and what could be causing this, please comment and inform me. This is too crazy for me to figure out.

two things: one, could it be low battery? two, when i hear beeping in my pocket, it usually means its time to up my meds

Its possible when the sound isn’t getting out into the open, it might be resounding into the phone itself, thus making a “echo” within the plastic.
Just a thought.

I think the phone may be intelligent…or somthing.
Is the ring also louder when you cover the speaker? It may be that the phone was designed to make a louder noise when it’s in a situation that would muffle the sound, like a pocket. It must be built with ESP (Extra Sensors Probably) tht monitor things like light diffusion and speed.
Yep, I think you have some alien technology on your hands, or…in your pocket. Just be careful and don’t hold that thing too close to your head!
