Have you cleaned the backing plate pads (where the pad edges rest on the backing plate) to bare metal and lubed them with a silicone gease or silicone antiseize grease?

Other question is what type of brake pads are you using?

If using Semi-Metallic pad material go back to organic. Wears faster but quieter too.
