It's always done this, even when i was on a stock rom. does your phone make this sound also..?

My phone does not make this sound. That is very weird. It is nit motion related.

No it doesn't. I thought it was the refresh issues. What apps does it do it on??

it will do it on home screen or any screen as long as the screen is turned on and the phone shakes it will make that sound.. i just went through all the audio folders under system media and can't find that sound any where..

It has to be with one of your settings options you use if it also did it in the stock rom then

I'm having exactly the same problem, except I have an HTC Desire HD and it only started about a week ago. Have gone through all my files on my phone and can't find the sound anywhere, really starting to annoy me as well. Given the problem seems to be across manufacturers I am guessing it must be an app or something that has a bug. PM me if you want to compare what apps are on our phones and see if we can narrow down what might be causing it.

So, i got some good advise from one of the developers of the rom im using. his suggestion was to not install any of the samsung apps that come pre loaded on the phone. so i reflashed the rom i was using and chose not to install any of the samsung apps and guess what? it stopped. no more annoying sounds when im walking down the hall at work. but like you were suggesting it has to be app related but i couldn't for the life of me pinpoint which one it was. hopefully that will help you a little and give you some direction.
