How to Turn Off Touch Screen Sound to Mute on Samsung Reality Multi Media Cell Phone.

Updated on April 25, 2012

Introduction

For the life of me I could not figure out how to mute the touch screen sound on my Samsung Reality cell phone.  I like the sound settings the Reality multimedia phone but I do find it not as intuitive to use as on other cell phones I've owned.  It was annoying to use my phone, particularly in quiet settings, as every time I touched the touch screen it beeped.

Eventually I figured out how to turn off the beep sound on my touch screen,  Below, I'll take you through each step so you can turn off the sound on your Reality phone also.

Step 1

Go to "Menu"

Step 2

Press "Settings and Tools".

Step 3

Scroll down to step #6 and choose "Touch Settings".  

(Authors Note: Do not select "#4 Sounds Settings". In my vain initial attempts to mute the touch tone sound I kept selecting the "Sounds Setting" options.  It won't be much help if you want to stop the touch screen beep :-)

Step 4

Toward the bottom of your Samsung Reality cell phone screen you'll see "Volume Level" If you touch "Volume Level" it will not do anything. You'll actually need to scroll slightly further down the screen. Just below "Volume Level" you'll see a bar with a square cursor on it. Slide the cursor on the bar all the way to the left until the sound level reads "Off" .

That should do it. Now you know how to turn off your Samsung Reality cell phone touch screen sound. Please check out some of my other Reality phone articles.

Update

I received a great comment below stating that this doesn't 100% work. There is one instance where you'll still get a beep. The touch pad still beeps if you are talking on the phone (ie... if you are typing something on the touch pad if you are speaking on the phone, etc). All other touch pad sounds will remain off, except when speaking on the phone.

I contacted Verizon Wireless to get to the bottom of this. Basically, they were of no use on the issue. Worthless actually. That said, it gave me another article to write. See the link to the right.
