Hi. I've had my Desire for some weeks now. But some day or two ago the text vibration stopped working. It's only the vibration when I get a text that doesn't work. When someone calls, feedback when I'm writing also work.
Anyone of you that know what it could be? I've checked settings etc.

I had the very same problem with my first Desire on a week or two after I got it. I tried literally everything. I called HTC they had no idea what to do nor how to fix it. So I called T-Mobile (who I got the phone from) told them about it, they couldn't fix it either so I got a replacement phone.
Seemingly there is no way of fixing it. The motor is fine, but something is bugged. Perhaps one of the more astute Desire users (using custom ROMs) may be able to shed some more light on the problem, but as far as I know, it is unfixable.
Ok. I guess I need to contact the store I got it from. Thanks

This is a known issue which means the text vibration stops working when the battery gets low and it doesn't come back after charging the phone.
Download and install sound manager from Android market, use it to turn on text message vibration and it'll all work again for you. Best of all It's all completely free.
Let us know if it works for you like it did for me.

I just love a problem like this that seems unfixable only to find a detailed and workable fix. Bravo.
I wish I would've known that before getting a replacement phone. Ah well, it didn't cost me anything.
Glad it worked for you all, can't remember where I first heard it but it worked for me

I installed sound manager after, I observed that the vibration does not work on my phone.For the beginning all was OK,I began testing and saw that from 5 calls 3-4 are without vibration and 1 is with the vibration,though the vibration is on from phone settings and sound manager.I didn't try to factory reset the phone because I would lose everything .Any ideas would be appreciated.
I had this problem a while ago. Download 'Sound Manager' from the Market, and there's an option in it, 'Vibrate Always' or something. That did it for me anyway, hope it helps you

I had an intermittent problem with the vibrate function after about 6 months. I sent my phone back to HTC. Initially they replaced the motherboard which didn't fix the problem. I sent it back again (set as priority) and they replaced the vibration module. It all works fine now. It's an option to consider if you can put up with being without your phone but I think it's worth doing.
i did an task 29 on my phone, flashed the 4.49.25.17 radio (also tried different radio's, did not make any difference), and then flashed the latest simplicity rom.
as the the title says, my friends are complaining about getting random old messages i already had send them before.
for exaplme: this morning my girlfriend said: how can it rain there its the sky is clear here.. i asked wtf? i never said its raining here, so then she said i sended that to her
then i looked into my sent items, i saw nothing but i can remember sending 4 days ago something like that, so what my phone did was resend an message from 4 days ago.
and this happend with every other rom so far.
I can't re-create the problem because i dont know what i causing it.. and its also just random messages.
I do know that, people only get resended messages i have send to them before, so for example, my girlfriend does not recieve any old messages i have sended to someone else.
But as you can all guess, this is kinda anyoing and i was wondering if any one else is having this problem?
btw. i tried running frx06 with success and i dont have the text message problem on there, so i can assume its an problem in windows mobile?
bump? its really anyoing lolz
I've had this problem b4 when switching between WM and android????????
I wish that I could help more but I don't know of a fix Sorry
Try checking your outbox/sent items and delete the message or resotre to factory defaults to fix the problem.
Had the same problem before.

nope, its not fixed, my friend got yesterday 2 old messages again..
btw. it happend while i was writing an text, and i pressed the "FN" button to get the "<" symbol (i was making an heart lol)
but when i pressed the FN button, the symbol screen did not popped up but instead the message list (in threading) scrolled up a couple messages.. right after that she said that she got some old messages from me..
is this maybe the cause for it? the not correct loading of the symbol screen that causes message resending..
it btw. happend before that the symbol screen would not load (never made an problem of it) but now come to think of it, i think those times they also complained about getting old messages.
This "second" problem of the not loading of the symbol screen happens randomly, when it fails to load i just exit the message screen and open up the message screen again and then the symbol screen just loads fine.
(sorry for my bad language, its not native =] )
hope this clears some things up..
Hmmm, never had this happen to me before, except the old messages part. I would wipe the system to start fresh, that should work. Backup anything you need.
I also have a problem with the FN button, it shows up but when I choose a character, it doesn't appear in the text screen.
That's why I perfer android on this phone lol.

i already did an wipe >.< doesnt fix anything
and for android, yeah i used it but the battery is empty way to fast + the camera is not working for me because i have an AUO panel >.< and it seems like viruscrazy is not having time to fix this
Ah, wait I think there's an option in the messaging app in winmo saying clear sms/account or something like. But try that ?
Battery life is good for me 7 hours full use, try wistilt 2 kernel. My camera works but rarely use it.

got the Firmware back in May and to this day it hasn't been fixed, WTF
how do I fix this, the keyboard goes blank every other time I text, texting is a basic thing for mobile communication how did they let this slip by! I doubt this firmware was tested at all before release it's like releasing a car and forgetting to add a wing mirror......
No one is forcing you to use mods if it's not upto your high standards. FYI, I text a lot (hardly call), and am still to experience this bug you are referring to.
Someone else posted the same problem in the Cyanogen community, got no response, I'm not saying I wish to remove this mod, I'm asking what do I have to do to fix this issue, I am not the only one having it!
try this, text your friend, press the back button or home button or even the power button after you have done texting. tada! blank keyboard = reboot
Am I missing something I've been in this forum everyday and have never heard of a bug like this???? When was last time you flashed?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
had some recent problems but nothing i couldnt fix with help from xda members but never had a single keyboard problem (fingers crossed). i would say if you dont or havnt then you need to do a clean install.
I literally flashed it like 3 days after they figured out how to put Cyanogen on the wildfire..
this bugs been here from day one, my friends have it also (2) and I saw a recent post from an american having the exact problem.
I have unlimited texts so I text lots everyday...
and if I keep texting and play about with my phone like check phone logs (basically, pressing the back button often from texting to menu etc)
I will get a blank keyboard, very frustrating, I only can fix it by REBOOTING
There's been like 200+ updates since may?? Why don't you update??
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
never had this issue.. :/ and i texting 500+ everyday
where are the updates?!? I've been on 7.0.3 since may and have never updated I haven't seen a new release?
Download
Download from here http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=buzz
There's a stable version called cm7.1 rc1 in the development section but I recommend flashing the latest nightly which is updated daily as its better, faster and more stable in my opinion.

Problem: i call somebody, calling is delayed for about 5 seconds, same with whenever i end the call, the screen stays for about 5seconds.
And sometimes, when the screen is off and when i answer the call, it becomes a miss call. Anybody experience the same?
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Me. I think this is something that happens on all smartphones. They are computers with the ability to make calls, not dedicated phones with the ability to compute... But I agree, that delay in starting/ending calls should be seriously adressed. It costed me already a few money!
Dusturm, You are on stock or custom rom? I'm using ARHD
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
I have a problem too with calling and hanging up, doesn't happen all the time.
Sometimes when I make a call my phone will try to ring the number and then just hang up and not even ring and this is with full signal.
If I try to end a call the screen stay on and pressing the end call button doesn't respond I have to wait for the other person to end the call or my screen responds after a while. I'm on stock, I think this is normal for HTC my old desire used to do this too.

Yeah I experience this, sometimes I answer the call, but it goes into a missed call.
Other times I cannot end the call as already stated.
And other times when trying to call, it will make no noise and then cancel the call.
Till now now solution :crying:

I've read somewhere in the HOX forums about problem concerning the kernel. The guys there adviced to change the kernel. I have the same problem with the end call especially and will be trying to fix it by replacing the kernel this evening. If this succeeds I'll write immediately here to give you the solution! :good:

It's not the "calling"! It's the "end calling" I have no issue with clicking call button and activating it! The problem is with the END CALL button.
Oooo.... Ok get a factry reset... Will solve this bug...
Click THANKS button if I helped, or u liked my post.
Will be honored.
possible solution
Guys, when you were flashing rom into your device last time did you perform a full wipe/factory reset? Cause I didn't and when I flashed exactly the same rom (and ver.) couple of hours ago but this time full wiping I got rid of the "end call" bug! Backup everything important with titanium and full wipe!
Same issue here. Started suddenly last week (after 4 months of owning hoc). Had args 9.3.2 at the time. For week all was fine then it started for no reason after few apps updated. Flashed 9.7.0 with full wipe. All ok till installed all my apps. Done again same. Done again same. Done again and installed apps one by one testing. Managed to install all apps all was good. Next day started again.

Do you have any application that is linked to the dialer? Such as a different dialer or a contact management app etc..?
Hi just wondering if anyone can help. I've noticed I keep missing calls and yesterday when receiving a call I noticed that it rang loud once then lowered, I've since tested it, and every other ring lowers to a barely audible level. I've not got silent on pickup on but do have pocket mode on. I can't understand why.
Cheers for any help

I have a similar issue, I've noticed that, it sounds fine when I preview notifications and ringtones, but when the phone actually rings it is a lot more quiet and muted. It does appear that the top speaker is not being used for ringtones.
Called HTC, spoke with a girl who sounded like she was following some sort of flowchart. Needless to say she couldn't help and concluded that it was a defective hardware. I tried to explain that others are having the same issue and it appears to be a bug, but I don't think she understood. Maybe if more people call HTC with this issue, they will figure it out.
Mine seems to play through both at first then switches to just the bottom and gets lower. Any way to stop this?

I'm guessing it's a bug as I've seen others complain about this issue on other forums. I hope they will fix it in the next update. Try calling HTC, the more people complain about it, the quicker they will fix it. When I called, they said that someone will get back to me to schedule an exchange, but instead, about a week later they sent me an RMA for a return. I don't really want to return the phone, I was going to test the replacement and if that one worked fine I would return mine, if not, I was going to return the replacement.
