Hey there, I have the same problem like this dude from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=840901 but I've noticed that it also vibrates when it's on normal mode. Is it possible that the phone would only vibrate when it receives text messages during vibrate mode and not on normal mode?
So I've searched everywhere and I haven't seen anything for this issue. Even though all the settings are correct and i have vibrate checked in the messages app, my phone won't vibrate for notifications like text messages all the time. Sometimes it will vibrate and sometimes it won't. So my phone will be in my pocket and I'll check it 30 minutes later and see 3 or 4 texts but it never vibrated. I exchanged my phone and am having the same issues. Everything is stock. Has anyone had this problem?
the phone vibrates, it just does it too softly for you to feel it... that's the problem with light phones, the original epic 4g could cause an earthquake but that's because it was gigantic, I never felt the epic 4g touch, and this one I feel it at times...

no it definitely doesn't vibrate. I've set it on the table and texted it and it'll vibrate on every 10th text or so. usually it'll just light up for the notification but it won't vibrate.

menu/settings/sound...........make sure sound and vibration are checked. that is the default for the entire phone even if vibration is enabled in messaging. also make sure your vibration intensity is all the way up.

Yes that's already been checked and vibration intensity is all the way up. The phone does vibrate on some texts, but not most, which is what the problem is.
I've noticed it'll vibrate normally when the screen is on and I get a text, but it won't when the screen is off?
I've definitely seen bugs in phones in which things like notification LEDs didn't work when the phone was in sleep mode. Whaddya know, I recall one of them being a Samsung (Intrepid). Granted it was years ago and Windows Mobile 6.5, but whoever was coding notification and power management back then wasn't fully aware of the point of "notifications".
Then again I just sent myself a test to the Note 2 while the screen was off... phone vibrated, screen turned on briefly (I hate that), blue light started blinking, heard my notification sound, and screen turned back off.
So there's something interfering with your phone's ability to wake up while it is trying to notify you. Have you done any power management modifications or installed anything designed to save battery power?

I haven't changed any power management settings or downloaded any apps designed to save power. I've tried factory resets several times. The phone will vibrate for texts but after about 30 minutes or so goes back to not vibrating. I've called samsung and taken it to the sprint store and no one can figure it out. I first thought the motions was causing te problems but it still doesn't vibrate when those are off. I'm completely out of ideas.
EDIT: I may have figured it out, if I turn on "Wake up in lock screen" in the settings in S Voice, the phone stops vibrating on texts. When I turn it off, the phone vibrates again. Toggled it on and off and the changes were immediate. Does anyone else have this problem??
Hi everyone,
I've done quite a bit of searching but not able to find anything along the lines of issue I'm having with my AT&T OGP.
Android 4.1.2 Bone Stock. Not even rooted. Running E98010K.
Issue:
I get to work and put my phone in vibrate mode and after a while it turns the sound on.
I get hangouts notification or email and when I try to unlock the phone, it makes the unlock sound and disturbs the peace at work.
I've had that happen at home too. I would put it in vibrate mode at night and all of a sudden when I unlock, there is sound.
First I though that I'm doing something wrong but since I got this new job, I put it on vibrate during the day and somehow, magically, it turns the sound on.
Has anyone else had this issue or is my phone haunted?
Thanks for your help in advance
Nobody else is having the same issue?
I had that happen to me twice today where I'd put it in vibrate mode and all of a sudden it would put itself back out of vibrate mode
Hello,
my GF's phone keeps switching to airplane mode when she answers calls. She can talk for 5-25 second and then the phone switches to airplane mode. I allready checked if the sensor that turns the screen of isnt working, but that is not the problem. If i hide the sensor with my finger the screen turns off.
And she cant listen to voice messages through the speaker, in the moment she takes the phone to her ear, the messages stop.
Looks for me like an error with the sensor but as i said, when i hide it with my finger the screen turns off.
Its on Android 4.2.2 and not rooted or has any custom rom.
Maybee anybody had the same issue or an idea what could be the reason.
I thought about installing Viper one but i am not sure if this could fix a sensor error or if it would be the best solution to send it to htc.
if i leave the watch to normal settings, ambient mode off, tilt to wake on i get notifications (like text and emails) and they turn the watch on. and it vibrates.
but if i turn off tilt to wake, then when i get email and text the watch doesnt wake up at all.. or even get notifications or vibrate..
if i turn on ambient mode and turn off tilt to wake, then my watch gets notifications cards, but wont vibrate on text and emails.
any ideas??
My watch has similar symptoms. There's topic about that http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-360/general/5-0-1-sucks-imho-t2976297
