[Q] Phones vibration capability disappeared?

My phone stopped vibrating on notifications and incoming calls for some reason. So did my brothers at the same time. It'll still vibrates on screen unlock and haptic feedback. I have my e-mail set to vibrate only, sometime it'll vibrate, but more often than not, it wont. But never for notifications or calls. And yes i checked all the settings i could. (That i know of)
It first started when we switched to aosp mod from cm 6.1. So I tried flashing back to cm6.1(jaybob version) hoping it would fix, but it didn't. Yes, I did all the full wipes and everything. I really don't wanna RUU to see if its the phone or just the roms. I mean, it happened to my brothers phone at the same time, that can't just be coincidence.
Has anyone else seen this? or know what iI can try before I RUU?

i downloaded an app called sound manager. its free on the market. in there i clicked menu, vibrate settings. i enabled all the vibrate settings. tested it, then deleted the app. that reenabled my vibrations for messages and calls.

on aospMOD go into sound settings and for vibrate make sure you have it set to something other than never

Tried both of those suggestions and neither worked. Vibrate was set to always already.
I don't understand cause haptic feedback works but the actual vibrating will not.

[Q] Disable Battery Full notification?? (Tweaky 4.1 ROM)

I´m currently on Tweaky´s 4.1 Gingerbread ROM.
Works perfectly but I want to turn Battery charge notification completely off. Now, even when I´m in silent mode, the phone vibrates when the charge is complete. This wakes me up when I´m asleep, very annoying.
Is there any way to turn the notification off?
I didn´t have this problem on Froyo.
I would ask this question in Tweaky´s thread in the developers section but I´m not allowed since I´m new in the forum.
Regards,

BUMP
Maybe somebody could be kind enough to copy and paste my above question in the Tweaky ROM thread in the developers section?

I've had the same problem, just put paper under the phone

Try turning sound off then go to settings and turn vibrate to never. If that doesn't work try to delete the sound from system/media folder....just a guess but if no sound file then no sound

Thanks for the reply.
Will try to set vibration to Never and see if that helps. Now I have the phone on silent and vibrate "Only when not in silent mode". That should be enough one would think.
Deleting the soundfile, do that really make any difference since it´s the vibration I
can´t get rid off?

Yeah that should work. I tried it last night and I didn't hear a thing....maybe I'm a heavier sleeper or maybe it worked.
The reason I suggested deleting sound file is so you wouldn't need to put phone in silent. If the first suggestion works then ignore the second

Deleted the batteryrelated sound files from the system/media folder.
No luck, the phone still vibrates when the battery is fully charged.
Maybe I need to switch ROM... :-(
Any more suggetstions?

Apparently not ROM related.
I have tested and the same problem exists on Doc´s ROM and Juwe´s ROM running JVH.
This is ridiculous, is there really no way to make the phone NOT vibrate in the middle of the night???
Please help me with this....

Did you figure this out? I'm having the same problem. My vibrate notification just stopped working.

I have a same problem here,
I am using Cassie's XtraLiteRom KL3 ThunderBolted! V4
Everything good but today I just notice that my vibration is not working anymore.
Please help!

I have the AT&T version and I'm having the same issue. After a factory reset the vibration for notifications works again but then eventually stops working again...

no vibration
Mine stopped working recently. Not sure how to fix it. Is it something I installed? It does not vibrate for incoming texts or phone calls.

Flashing a stock ROM fixed this for me. I've seen others say that fixing permissions or wiping dalvik will fix too.
Only time this happens to me is when flashing ROMs
I'm sure this makes no difference but when I flash a ROM, I leave those bottom settings under Sound as the defaults. Aka haptic on.

I'm running the stock AT&T ROM. Do I need to be rooted to wipe the dalvik cache? What does "fix the permissions" mean? THANX!

That shouldn't happen running bone stock. Try a factory reset first if you have not done so already. Don't install any apps. Run the phone for a day. If your issue returns I would swap the phone out for a replacement.
The haptic motors in every Android device I've ever owned has done some weird thing or another. I stopped using it. Why blow the motor out early? Vibrate on silent for notifications I found to be sufficient. At first I was put off by changing my using habits but disabling haptic feedback has grown on me.
EDIT: I see you did a factory reset and it came back. I'd exchange for a different handset. Just me though. Someone here might have another solution

THANKS!!!!

;/
It's old topic, I know, but Im bumping it. Vibrations in external apps like facebook messenger or kakaotalk doesnt work for me, but for normal messages, phone calls etc it works, so I doubt its fault of phone. And in my Galaxy Ace before I had same issue, but it just stopped working after some update from devs of this apps i said. Though it would be strange that only few people has such problems. I think its something about settings or w/e, can anybody help here in this thread without saying 'factory reset or exchange phone' ?
Thanks <3

[Q] Faulty mute toggle?

Hi everyone
Re-posting this from the general section (posted on there by mistake, was still half asleep lol, sorry)
Just got the xperia z yesterday (after my previous lg 4x was stolen... grrr... may the thief get permanent bursting hemorroids...) and I noticed a weird thing.
The mute/vibrate/sound toggle in the notification bar does not seem to work, and the same goes for the one in the popup shown by pressing the power button for a couple seconds.
Details: the mute or vibrate icon appears on the notification bar, but if I check the volumes in settings, they're still all on, and if I receive a call or get a notification or whatever, the phone actually rings despite the supposedly muted state.
All this doesn't happen if I "manually" turn the volume off with the volume buttons or via settings: in that case the vibrate icon appears and the phone actually does not ring.
Has anyone experienced anything similar?

All good here dude. Hope you get it fixed. Have you tried turning phone off and on again? That usualy fixes small.glitches.

Yep, already tried that of course, as well as uninstalling the one widget I have that interacts with volumes, just to be sure it was not some weird conflict (and of course it wasn't)
Not a biggie actually, as I can turn it down manually or by said widget, but I hope I'll figure it out anyway if only for the sake of understanding the source of the issue

Yep I understand that. Annoys me when I cant get something working lile its ment to.

I have a problem with the toggle in the notification bar and the power off menu. System settings show me notifications and ringtones are off, but the phone still has audible, unmuted notification sounds. Really annoying.

Yep, that's the same exact issue I'm having

I guess we have to wait for a software update.

Actually, I could try a factory reset just to be sure, but I admit I'm kind of too lazy to set my stuff up again from scratch only to try and fix that small glitch

Heard about it, but haven't read the whole thing yet (yep, still being lazy)
Jokes apart, I was planning to leave it 100% stock for at least a little while to see how the battery behaves without even the slightest piece of modding (got the phone only last friday, today has been the first real "field test" for the battery and so far I'm pretty positively impressed)

Well I have already removes/frozen a bucketload of apps happy bunny, I am. Now I only need to figure out which app does what so I don't kill something and make my phone less usable.

lol I removed a few apps too, but luckily for me they were uninstallable without root or anything.
I also disabled a few more through the stock apps management, for the time being it's sufficient for my taste

Same irritating automatic toggling action going on

Yes, having the same problem as well with mine. But it has been the same problem since I had ICS on my Xperia Arc S, then Xperia V and now this when I use the toggle in the notification bar or any other toggle aside from toggling it manually via setting. Very irritating since it has never and probably will never be fixed due to the fact that it's a cross-model issue. Chances are, those who say they don't have this problem already has it but don't know it yet or will get it eventually. Sony needs to iron this out once and for all

unknown annoying notification!?

I tried searching for this notification sound but i couldnt find it, i disabled most of the notifications and i still get it randomly.

Screenshot or a description would help. Try tapping and holding down the notification , from there you can see what app is sending the notification

The reason why im asking is that it doesnt show any notification "sign" or any status, it is unknown, its just an annoying "sound" like its running on my background, like a "ghost", after that its gone with no trace.
I tried looking at "running apps" but its not there. I tried looking for that particular sound/audio on my device but couldn't find it.

So it's just a sound?

Just a weird random annoying sound, which is like a ghost thats untraceable

Had the same problem. After searching everywhere in settings I found the cure in 'Accessibility'. It was awhile ago, but I believe 'Notification Reminder' was set to on. Turning it off, fixed it. Not 100% sure, I'm remembering this correctly, but it's worth a try.
