Hi, I just bought a Vibrant and used Kies to update it to 2.2 Froyo stock. It is rooted and unlocked. For some reason vibrate does not work at all. I tried:
- Volume down button to vibrate mode
- *#0*# brings up a debug screen, clicked vibrate test
- Set up SMS notifications for vibrate
- Settings->Sounds, vibrate on max settings and vibrate always
- Installed Sound Manager app, set vibrate to vibrate whenever possible
None of the above result in any vibrate...
Is this a known issue with Android 2.2 stock? How do I go about fixing this? Hopefully it isn't a hardware issue..
Could be the phone!
Flash another ROM and see is the problem persists.

Hi,
I have the annoying problem that my s2 turns off vibration mode when put to silence. If you manually go under settings->sound->silent mode and put that to 'vibrate' it works for that time being. But the next time, it all go back to no-vibration mode.
Looking at my friend phone(s2), he got the option of two different mode of silent when using the volume up/down. One with vibration and one without.
I honestly don't know how to fix this very annoying problem. I just want the vibration to be active at all times!
Any hints that can point me in the right direction?

just change your settings to mute ringtone and media volume for a diffrent profile that you dont use
I tried that, and it doens't work.
I've also reset to factory default, with no luck.
In fact, when I put my phone to silent and manually go to settings to put on vibration( I can see the vibration icon on top). It still does not vibrate on notification, ringing nor sms. But strangely from third party application it vibrates, like whatapp messenger.
vibration work when I have sound on.
So the problem is that when I put it on silent it automatically turns off the vibration mode.. and when I manually put silent mode to vibration, it still doesn't vibrate, only on 3rd party apps..
It sounds to me that this is some software issue, but can't really seem to find any solution to this very annoying problem.
Anyone?

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.
Hello, what happened to the silent mode with the vibration from WhatsApp or Facebook with LED notification ? Seems to be missing from the Lollipop update.
Vibrate mode on Z3
I had the same problem but found this on another forum:
"lower the ringtone volume then tap on the bell icon".
It does work. I only got my new phone last week. I was just getting used to where everything was when the update changed things. Sigh.
