Notification and call vibration broken - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So,
The problem is that the vibration doesnt work in notification and call even when it is set to do so. Vibrator isn't broken, getting haptic feedback in start and from SwiftKey.
I started having this problem when I flashed checkrom. And I guess I backen it up in titanium. Could titanium have written system? Will reflash work with restoring apps and data only? Rather not cause of many wifi access points and passwords..
Thanks for the info,
Regards

[Q] Vibration for Notifications Not Working

My phones notifications have spontaneously stopped working. Was working tonight and today it isn't.
It no longer vibrates for all notifications including sms, email, Whatsapp, facebook etc. Vibration for calls and haptic feedback work fine.
I am using the stock rom. Tried jiggling all settings and many soft resets to no avail.
Any ideas? Please help!

Make sure once again that Vibration set to 'Always' under Sound - Settings.
Yes that was the first thing I tried haha

And you made sure that under Email app it is also set to Always?
Yes that and every single app that creates notifications. As I said this problem spontaneously manifested itself. It literally appeared overnight when everything had been fine and dandy before which is why I am so stumped.

Well certainly the last option is to do a Factory Reset, what else could it be anyway? Make sure to Back up stuffs before

Random vibrate

Hi everyone.
This morning I unplugged my charger and my phone started vibrating randomly after a few mins.
The vibrating is very random and tje vibrating pattern is as if there was an incoming call. Yet, nothing.
I can't find any strange apps causing this (have checked with Privacy inspector and system tuner pro) also i've checked all internet sockets for strange connections (malicious apps may've caused, but wasn't, checked with quick info rpd)
I cant find a solution to the random vibrate. Anyone got any clues?

- Wipe the device (Recovery -> Wipe Cache + Wipe Data)
- Try reflashing a stock ROM + kernel
This means I will lose ALL data I have?
Apps, contacts, sms etc?

Now also my charging icon keeps showing that it's connected. But it's not.
-edit; it's off. But was on for no reason.

Yes, use Titanium Backup to backup apps, etc.

Try reflashing your ROM, if that doesn't work, please try searching on forum for this problem, I'm pretty sure many people had it before.
Hi Brian,
How did you solved the problem? I have the same problem right now.
Thanks.

Stock SMS/MMS App Crashing After Log Restore

I've always had an issue when moving from one rom to another. Essentially I backup my close to 10,000 sms messages, and when I install the new rom attempt to restore them via SMS Backup and Restore app. After doing so it results in the stock messaging app becoming unusable and crashes, which results in lost service and a slew of other problems. As of late I started freezing the stock messaging app with TB and use Go SMS instead, but now I can't receive MMS. Anybody have a sure fire solution? Thanks
No one wants to help? I'd really appreciate some input. Thanks

I have over 10k messages I use to restore (SMS Backup & Restore) without problems, gone through basically every rom you can think of.
And yes I also use GoSms, cause after 1k messages the stock SMS decides it wants to lag like crazy.
Does the stock messaging app crash even when you're not using it? (When you leave it unfrozen)
Sent from my Galaxy S II (i777)
Yes it crashes regardless. I wouldn't mind if I could leave it alone and not worry about it, but whenever I boot the phone back up and its unfrozen it crashes my phone and it loses signal. Miui is the only rom this didn't happen to, which is why I'm still using it.

Still looking for a solution. The newer version of backup and restore lets you restore message from a certain date on, but not before that date. I feel like if I restored it in two stages with a reboot in between it would have any issues, but I have yet to find a simple method of doing so.

I was having this same issue after restoring my SMS/MMS messages. Then I used SMS Backup + to back them all up to my gmail account. After that I wiped them all out from my phone, and the stock app was still crashing, so I started using GO SMS again. A couple days later, the stock app just started working by itself all of a sudden when I got a notification for an SMS message in my status bar. I'm not sure what fixed it.

Did you try clearing the sms cache through manage apps?? sometimes doing this helps clear up glitches, I did this when I had the Phantom VM bug. not sure if it will work for this but its worth a shot.
Hope this helps
Thanks for all the input guys. I was able to restore my messages in 4 chunks. Worked great, just took forever. Thanks

Hey, I saw this has been a while, but I am trying to do the exact same thing as you. How were you able to restore it in chunks?

[Q] notification type changes on reboot

i am on miracle v2
if i keep my mobile on vibration-only and whenever i reboot my device my profile automatically changed to ringing instead of vibration only.
and then when i manually changes it back to vibration-only then i dont get vibration notifications for sms, mails, whatsapp etc etc.

Note SMS/mms vibration trouble

I tried to search to see if anyone else had the issue, but all I could come up with was different problems. My phone, all original Samsung ics, has stopped vibrating upon SMS and MMS notifications when the phone is in the vibrate setting, the phone works fine. Audible notifications work fine, but I rely on vibrate/silent a lot, and this is agitating. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to fix it, or should I just take this opportunity to root it and hope it works out? Thanks in advance!

Which galaxy note do you have? The international version or ? Also, do the touch buttons on the bottom still vibrate? Or when you type?

The AT&T version/LTE. Yes, the feedback, plus typing does work fine. Same with the phone ringer as well. Every once in a while the home key vibrates a bit long/harder than usual, but aside from that everything else is fine.

Okay, we are going to do a rest, go to Google play and download handcent its a SMS app, use it to text someone while set on vibrate. If that vibrates or not let me know. If is does, its a problem with your stock SMS if it doesn't still, make sure all vibrate settings are on (there is quite a few) if no again, you will have to hard reset it, everything will be erased, remember to remove memory card, and finally if that doesn't work, its the phone, either get it looked at or you may just have to deal. Rooting has perks, it also could fix this problem (not promising anything on that tho lol)

I'm sorry, I should have specified, I already did try handcent and gosms I think it was? Both work fine! I have been trying to avoid hard resets/erasing everything because I didn't want to lose some stuff I have setup, it is always so tedious! Haha. Anyhow, I think it is the native messaging app, I just figured maybe it had happened prior to someone else, and there was some possible fix without having to go through all that setup again! I guess I'm done being able to avoid it. Haha
Thanks for all the help, I do appreciate it!
Well, installing and removing those other SMS apps a few times seems to have "fixed" it, and all my vibration notifications are back again!
