Vibration alerts - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Anybody expereinced this problem with Kaiser?
My vibration alert sometimes (many times actually) did not stop until I manually press the power on/off button. I have set vibration on when I receive new email messages, etc. When a new email message came in, the device just kept vibrating (I can only stop it by pressing the power button). When it was working properly, it would emit just 3 intermittent vibrations instead of a long one.
Any advice on how to resolve this? Thanks.

I get same effect with push e-mail. After three or four e-mails it goes into infinite vibration and will not stop until I acknowledge that e-mail. Please, any suggestions really appreciated.

Yes, that's similar to what I have encountered. Anybody has any advice please?

Lol, sorry to laugh, but it reminded me of something that constantly vibrates

Any solutions for this? I have the same issue.

I've found that when the phone is on non-vibrate option but volume is turned down to min, the phone continually vibrates!
When in normal vibrate-only mode, it does the usual 3 buzzes!!!
Try it and see

I encountered the same issue with the Tilt.

Tilt Won't Stop Vibrating!!
Has anyone found a solution for this? As mail is pushed through, my tilt vibrates continuously until I hit the power button. This happens several times every day (and needless to say, it is very annoying).

Seems not much advices from the guru here .... or maybe this problem only happened to just a few of us?
For me, I still can't figure out the pattern. It just happened spontaneously so I can't really pinpoint at a specific fault or something. But I would be very interested to find out how come this problem is only bugging a few of us here .... hmmmm ...

I changed my settings when new email message received to non vibrate mode.

I'm also having this problem intermittently and it is very annoying. Please help on this one.

I am also having this issue but can't seem to track it down to a single set of circumstances.

I have the same thing - when volume is not set to mute and vibrate is on, it vibrates normally. When the volume is muted, sometimes, but not always, it vibrates continuously. I haven't found any kind of solution yet...
I have the Tilt with stock AT&T ROM.

I swear I touched nothing...

This morning I wake up, and connect GPRS on my phone to check emails as usual. Except this time, when it connects, my phone vibrates for a few seconds (even when it is not muted/vibrate mode) and the LED flashes red (until next soft reset). WTF!?!? I did nothing to it.....
Any ideas as to what is going on? Problem in registry?
These Pocket PC Phones from HTC are driving me crazy, when will Dell start making Phones?!
PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP!
.......anybody?
Are you sure that you or someone else has not changed
Start->Settings->Sounds & Notifications->Notifications
Connection Established or
Messaging:New Email Message
to vibrate and flash LED
Hi
I checked these settings, and NONE of them were enabled.
So, just thinking I might get lucky, I enabled them, reset, and then disabled them.....It works fine now.
Is there any application that might have done this? I hadn't installed any recently though.
Thanks for your help
Something like that happened to my olde XDA2 a few times before.
I'd get an SMS, or some 'event' would happen and it wouldn't stop vibrating. Wouldn't necessarily crash. Just wouldn't stop vibrating till reset.
I suppose it's some event that gets triggered wrongly, or (in my case), the "stop vibrate" co,mand gets lost along the way.. Harmless. Unless it's not..
:lol:

Keylock imideately after hanging up a call

Hi.
I have an odd behaviour of my S730/Wings. Say i make regular phonecall. No matter how long it is, 5 seconds or 5 minutes, the moment i hang up the call, the keyboard lock kicks in. A co-worker with the same phone doesn't have this issue, and i cant seem to figure out a way to switch it off. It is rather annoying
Anyone know how to solve this issue, so that the phone locks up only when left alone for some time, or with holding down the red button?
Any help is deeply appreciated

When you end a call... are you holding the end call (red) button, or just tapping it?
I just tap it, i'm aware of the hold-down-red-button-to-lock-keypad. So i cant understand why it locks up...

Screen Randomly Turns on When Unit is Off

Tried Forum/Google search for this and too many results.
Situation: My noob friend buys a refurbished AT&T Tilt after my praises and he reports that the screen randomly wakes up when the unit is off without any action on his part. What could be the common causes? My Tilt doesn't do this even after Hard-SPL, SIM unlock, and third party apps. He has none of this so far, just the stock ROM. Should I tell him to get a replacement? Do refurbished models have this problem?
the screen should turn on after you press the power button. press it again and the screen turns off. hold it and it wil shut down/power off. i thought that was normal -_-
isnt that the whole point?? u press the power button to wake it up??
I am LMAO at the responses so far. He is pressing the power button to turn it off. After it turns off, it will wake up randomly without any action on his part. I will edit the thread title to be more clear.

Thanks. I don't know if that is what is happening to him, but I will direct him to that thread.
The screen "wakes up" when ever an alarm goes off or you receive a message. Can you confirm that nothing is happening? i.e.:
1. it did not auto-connect to check for messages.
2. your friend did not receive a text message
3. no alarms went off
???

I will ask him and post the answers here.
I have the same problem on my stock tilt any solutions anyone? I have done numerous hard resets and that seems to the solve the problem for a couple months then it returns.
could be battery check from sprite backup
Sprite backup has an auto backup when it detects low battery. To test for low battery it periodically turns the device on - if you have sprite backup installed this could explain it.
somthin that was happening to mine for a bit was when i logged on to AIM for a while, it started doing that.... then ever since, even if app is completely closed out, it kept doing it!! it would randomly light up for no freakin reason (no auto login, no apps running) jus light up, then go dim???.... tried everything, eventually got new ROM and hasnt done it since. see if he has used the IM app, that was the problem for me...
there could be so many reasons why it would wake. Just the simple slide of the screen will wake it up. Theres a registry tweak to turn it off. There's also power options your friend can play around with.

Phone keeps popping out of suspend

The screen keeps blinking back to full brightness, every 30 seconds or so, when it is left alone and the screen dims normally. It is as if something is pressing a button or touching the screen.
When I press the power button and send it to suspend mode, the backlight goes off, and the tilt no longer responds to touch or button pressing. For some reason it pops itself out of suspend and turns back on every couple minutes. My battery life is going down extremely fast. 100% to 40% in three hours.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I searched the forum but never found a specific topic for this issue.

I have the same problem w
th the backlight comming on by itself & battery life depletes extremely fast. I am using HD 15 Nov with 3.29.
In addition to backlight issue my hardware keys are no longer working.
Please has anyone got any advice
i have the same problem. the only thing that seems to work is doing the keypad lock and putting it to sleep. it will occasionally blink like its trying to come back on but doesnt. another thing i did is put my phone in flight mode, locking the keypad and putting it to sleep. when i do that it doesnt blink or anything. sadly i wont receive phone calls or emails and texts. i think the blinking has something to do with phone signal and accessing the networks.
hth
also i noticed that it wakes from sleep when the keypad "unlock" screen pops up.
i think i found a fix
Ok I hope this helps for you because it seems to work for me. I first went to start/settings/sounds & notifications. Then I clicked on the notification tab and unchecked everything leaving only the ringer on for when calls come in. when I did that, for about 5 minutes (longest I tested it at) the phone did not turn on and the backlight didn’t do that weird grayish flash thing. Afterwords I at first was going to go down the list of all notifications and turn things on/off to see what wakes up my phone but i got too lazy and only checked one setting. One thing I noticed is that when I have the beam: autorecieved notification turned on for display a message on the screen I get that weird backlight flickering thing. So for now I just have sound alerts on when I receive any type of messages and a sound alert for reminders. So far so good, my phone hasn’t woken from sleep in 20 minutes.

At&t Tilt (Kaiser) SMS sound and vibration - works, then stops

Ok, first off, I'm well aware that there are many topics that appear to cover what I'm asking about. I've searched them. Second, I know where the "Sounds and Notifications" option is, and have been there. I'll get to that further down.
I've had this issue since I've gotten the phone. I'm not entirely sure if it's due to apps installed or not, since it's been doing when I've had some installed and when I didn't. I have tried hard resetting my device as well. My phone will play the sound of an incoming text, flash the light, all that just fine... for the first five or so texts. After that, the phone will wake up, it will show the notification on screen, but it WON'T play the sound, nor flash the light.
Naturally, the first time I noticed this, I went into the options menu to see what was up. All the settings were right. I hit the play button to test the file... nothing. I hit it again, nothing. I hit stop, then play, and it started up. Then my notifications were ok again, for about five or so texts. If my phone is on vibrate, it's the same case. It'll vibrate for the first five or so, then stop until I go into the settings.
I don't have a clue what could be causing this, so any and all help or suggestions are welcome and greatly appreciated. Thanks.
