Go to Settings-> Sound and then turn haptic feedback on.

And if that doesn't help then take Power Saving mode off.

I think beyond a vibrator (giggle) failure these are the two most logical options.

I have the opposite problem. My back, home and menu buttons vibrate when I touch them. How can I disable the vibration? I'm using android 4.2.1
This are my current settings.

[q][app] phone will never vibrate

what application can i use so that my phone will never vibrate?
You can just set it in the settings for it not to vibrate. And turn haptic feedback off, if you want that gone too.

Vibration stopped working

Suddenly the vibration and the haptic feedback does not work.
I've tried every option I can think of to fix it but still no vibration.
Any advice to get it working again would be greatly appreciated.

I'm also having the same problem. Suddenly I can't seem to find the vibration options in the message notification settings.
I also tried the suggestion above and it did not work for me.
I read somewhere that resetting to factory settings worked for them. But I'm still looking for other options or the cause of the problem before resorting to resetting or going for repairs.
Attached screenshots for those who would want to help.

Taking headphones out makes phone change sound?

I'm running CM10, but this also happened in CM9 and a few other ROMS. If my phone is on silent and I plug my headphones in, my phone will go into vibrate. If my phone isn't on silent and I plug/unplug my headphones it'll go into vibrate or silent mode. It's really annoying. Is there a way to fix this? Thanks!

There is an option to "link" both settings. IIRC, they are seperate by default.
Settings > sound...

[Q] I need a way to keep the screen on when the phone is on

Is there a ROM or a mod that will keep the screen on when dialing or receiving a call? I'm disabled, and it's much easier for me to use the speakerphone. Unfortunately, I can't turn the speakerphone on before the call, and during the call the screen goes blank. Usually I can turn it back on, but then I have to switch from home to the phone screen and hit the speakerphone button. The other party will have to wait several seconds while I do this.
Is there any way around this? I've tried four or five ROMs, and they all turn the screen off. Is there something simple I'm missing? Is there a ROM out there that will do what I want? How about a module?
Thanks!
