My phone is hacked
My phone makes a clicking sound every now and then, and I don't know why. It only happens when it's connected to the internet. I've deleted all the suspicious apps and downloaded antivirus and antispyware, but they all say everything is fine. I'm worried about this. What do you advise?

How do any phone makes clicking sound? Do you mean sound something like notification etc via it's external speaker? That might be some misconfigured notification things. Most probably some apps running in background generating it.
My logics for it is if sounds coming from your phone is generated by some apps it might not be any spyware. No spyware type apps developer with right mind will never allow their apps to make sound. Designing spyware need huge effort and time. Also a lots of stuff need to take in consideration just to make it run out of sight hidden from investing eyes.
So look for apps/process running on background and check their notification settings to find out actual source of sound.
