[Q] Phone no longer vibrates or has haptic feedback - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I realized today that my phone no longer vibrates or has haptic feedback. I have vibrate turned on for both calls and texts. I even downloaded Sound Manager to make sure settings were set to vibrate whenever possible. But my phone still doesn't vibrate when i receive texts/calls/change volume to vibrate using the side volume buttons.
I can't really remember when this happened. Would rooting my phone have caused this? It may have been that time since I rooted it a few days ago, but I am not sure.
Thanks

No Vibrate or Haptic - after Bionix?
I am having the same problem. I believe it manifested right after I flashed Bionix ROM.
SOLVED--re-booting after flashing solved it. Sorry, I'm a NOOB.

[Q] Aria / Android Ringer Volume broken

I have a rooted, Liberted HTC Aria. I can set the volume all the way down to vibrate via the rocker, place it on the table, call it from another phone, and the phone will ring.
When I re-check the volume level it is set to the quietest ring, not vibrate.
I have repeated this over and over as I though I was just accidentally hitting the rocker while it was holstered, but that's not the case.
I've tried downloading volume lock. I set the phone to vibrate and test volume lock to see if it works.
It does, I get a message to confirm new volume level, if i don't it stays on vibrate, as indicated by the vibrate icon.
Then you call the phone... The phone rings and the volume is now set to the quietest ring, not vibrate.
Any ideas, this is a huge inconvenience at work?
Thanks.
Don't know how old this thread is, but I will tell you, you are not going crazy.
I have a vibrant that is rooted and custom rom loaded.
I've had the custom rom for 3-4 months now.
I reloaded some crappy rom, and after I did that, no matter what rom i put on it, I get this ringer problem.
So, no, it's really a problem, you're not imaging it.
So far I can only think that the default build.prop has been funked with.
Or, one of the programs that you installed is messing with it.
I think that it more likely is #1 because on fresh install the phone is fine. But upon reloading all my apps (apps only, no data/ system data), the damn phone will funk up and do the ring crap again.
So, try Odin - to stock and from there, flash a brand new rom and restore one by one.
Sorry mate, that's what I've found, it sucks. I hope you found a solution for this. Like I said, I have a Vibrant, so I don't browse the "Aria" forum at all. I found this thread on GOOGLE.
If you find out anything, PLZ PLZ PLZ, - contact me.

[Q] Volume issues with notifications

Is anyone else having issues with the volume level on their notifications. I have checked all the settings under notifications and the volume is max, plus changed to different tones. But most of the time I hear no sound when a text comes in. I have not installed that many apps or rooted the phone yet. Am I missing something. It seems to come back after restart but doesnt last long. It worked great for the first week.

[Q] Mini Pro SMS Vibration doesn't work

Heyy all,if this already being asked before then I couldn't find it so please point me in the right direction.
A few days ago my phone stopped vibrating when I received SMS. I thought I might of knocked it off in the setting or something but after checking to find that it was still turned on I got confused. I've done nothing to the phone which could kill the phone vibrating when I receive a SMS. The phone vibrates when my alarm goes off and every other thing but not when I receive a SMS. I've checked in the service menu as well to see if vibrate worked there and it does. So does anyone have any idea how I can fix this problem as I rely on my phone vibrating to answer my texts.
Cheers
Hi, I don't know if there's an "official" way to do it, but I use AudioGuru to set all volume and vibration settings. Next to the ringtone slider is a symbol of a vibrating phone, and it can be activated or deactivated. Same story with the slider below, which refers to sms: you can check if it's activated or not.
It is activated though. I use Light flow which changes the LED light when I get a notification but it also sets what the notification does like vibrate and such. My ohone vibrates in ever other situation expect when I receive a text.

Disable vibrate in ICS

Is there any method to fully disable the vibrate function in ICS? Although it says it's disabled in the settings, it keeps vibrating when i turn of the volume and receive an email for example. I just want it off, at all times.
thx
Wondering this too. Need to turn this off completely. I am getting a loud noise on the top left of tablet when the vibrate goes off.

Go to settings, sound, and uncheck vibrate and ring, and vibrate on touch then retart the tablet. It should not vibrate any more.

That helps for sure, but doesn't disable completely.
For example if you turn the volume on the side of the tablet all the way down it goes off and it will vibrate playing some games.
I'd like to know this too... how to completely disable vibrate at all times (muting, power on/off, in apps, etc).
My vibrate motor started going bad over the last couple days, and now produces an annoying rattle sound.
I don't need the vibrate anyways, so would love to disable it.

[Q] XWLS8 stock vibrate during call?

Hi All,
I´ve flashed deodexed XWLS8 stock from here and I am experiencing vibration during call when a new message comes in.
I am not able to disable it even if I have turned off notifications during call.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
The only way to turn off the vibration completely is to select the message app then menu/settings and scroll down towards the bottom till you find "vibrate" butonce you untick it you wont have vibration at all.
I think it vibrates anyway when you have it turned on.
thanks but I don´t think that is right. The setting you are suggesting WILL turn off vibration for that app completely.
I don´t think it should be vibrating when I am speaking to someone else, its very annoying.
Thanks!
If its set to vibrate in settings it will vibrate no matter what.In the latest firmware releases Samsung have changed the system.UI so this could also change the behaviour of things compared to previous firmwares.
