Whats up guys...tried posting in the forum I wanted but I guess ima "noob"...anyways I'm running wicked v5 with trinity kernel...I've also tried ktoonsez which I think is an awesome kernel by the way...only reason I switched was to test this...anyways with either kernel I'm having trouble with vibrations...they start out nice and strong but after awhile it gets to the point where I can barely feel anything at all...I'm talking about the soft keys (menu and back buttons), and the keyboard...If restart my phone the vibrations are nice and strong but after maybe couple of hours I'll barely be able to feel it...I even go into settings and go into haptic feedback and raise the vibration level and the same thing still happens...even with ktoonsez kernel where u can open up ktweaker and increase vibration intensity to 126, I do and the same thing happens...is this a something that has to do with the kernel, Rom or my phone?...am I doing something wrong or are there there's experiencing this?

Dear all,
Thanks for spending time reading this. And I so sorry am if im posting this wrongly somehow. I'm new ...
I have been using MIUI ever since, and just switched to WajkIUI yesterday. been doing fine, the speed was good, battery's cool ~ the only problem i have so far is the function which allow the fone to vibrate when the call get through.
Its was nice in MIUI, but then with WajkIUI, it vibrates in like ... 200ms, which is very hard to acknowledge if u're not paying much attention. I have this bad habit of placing call, and hold the fone in my hand anywhere away from my head, and only put it to my ear when i got the vibrate signal ... now it's nearly impossible if i'm outdoor to do this... frustrating.
Found the setting in - Settings/Programs/Call Settings (or go to dial and get to setting, same) and it's in Vibration menu. It have 3 options, Vibrate, Weak Vibrate and No Vibrate, which Weak Vibrate is totally not vibrating at all ...
I'm using launcher pro with WajkIUI 1.10.28
P.s: i surfed through all the setting yesterday when i first flashed this ROM, and i think i did see a setting bout vibrating somewhere but i can't find it anymore ... dunno what to do.
Thanks so much in advance.
really, noone knows bout this problem? ... too bad, im digging it up for one more time, thanks, if anyone could help
Hey guys i'm running [ROM][ICS 4.0.4]:ARKSIDE.UCLE2::[BETA05][15 Toggle MOD with MAD SKILLZ][5.20.2012] (TDJ Awsome Developer!)
whenever i put my phone on vibrate and im reciving phone calls or text the vibration is so low that i can barelly feel it in my pocket..i went through the settings increased it from there as well but it feels as if the vibration is very low when ever i put my phone on vibrate.
However when i was changing the setting i felt the vibration and it was strong so i know that there is nothing wrong physically on the phone..
HELP PLEASE!!!What do i do?
Install a different Rom not based on the UCLE2 leak. It seems to be an issue with the leak and most, if not all Roms based on it suffer from weak vibration.

DAMN!!thats a bigg bummer!!! thx for the help though!!
I originally posted this on the androidforums.com site but I read that people have moved over here so I'm hoping crossposting will get us people with this problem so idea on how to fix it.
Anyway, when I first purchased this phone through TMobile, not only were the vibrations weak for texts and calls, but the sounds were also a problem and hard to hear in a pocket at max volume. My friends phone had most of the same ringtones but a different model phone so I copied their tones over mine and theirs were much louder sounding on my phone compared to the ones in my list that didn't get overwritten. I've Googled on and off over the months looking for a way to up the intensity level of the vibrations for texts and calls but haven't found anything, not even and app for that. I haven't rooted or altered this phone yet beyond installing apps.
Called into Tmobile tech support this week and factory rest it to no avail. They sent me a new phone in the mail and it's the same, low db ringtones and notification tones and very weak vibration.
The GS2 phones on a particular Canadian network are build a bit differently and have a good vibration mechanism and the GS2 phones on Sprint are a bit different too because I believe they have the flashing LED light on the front, so that means that not all GS2 phones are built with the same hardware. This makes it hard to figure out if it's a software problem or a hardware problem.
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? I haven't rooted or installed a different ROM before so has anyone had this weak vibration problem then installed a different ROM and this fix it? I ask this thinking that maybe the mechanism has the ability to vibrate with more intensity but has been engineered down for some reason.
I'm babbling now and not really educated enough on what all could be gained to combat this problem via a new ROM.
Any thoughts or comments from others with this problem?

Okay so your phones vibrations seem normal, hmm. I see your on the T989 as well as being on T-Mobile so I'm wondering why I've gotten 2 in a row with a weak vibration mechanism. Do you remember if yours was weak before you modified it?
Anyone else with a weak vibration mechanism, post so we can figure this out.

I thought there was a setting in sound...where you can adjust the vibration

There are 3. One for ring vibration, one for notification vibration, the last on is haptic feebback; I have maxed the sliders out on ring and notification. Still pretty low intensity after that.
I saw Jelly Bean on an GS3 at the T-Mobile store today and in that version there is an additional setting where you can choose your type of vibration other than just the one short vibration that happens now.
Does anyone that installed the Jelly Bean ROM for the GS2 have this additional vibration setting where you can choose a different vibration pattern?
Use any Jedi Rom and you should be fine.

I've had to stick to TW roms lately since every cm10/aokp rom I've tried sooner or later gets buggy when trying to wake it up and the screen staying black. After research this seems to be a cm10/aokp issue.
Do you guys just tolerate this or do you have a workaround? It's even happened when I got a phone call and yea that sucked not having the screen come on
Sleep of death is usually a kernel problem.
I always use the Cyanogen kernels and haven't seen a sleep of death in months. What's the newest version you've tried?
I have tried Liquid, Carbon, and pretty much all of them out there.
I pretty much use ktoonsez's kernels. I really thought this sleep problem was the rom's fault since when I try to wake the lights at the bottom do come on and I also thought thats what I read.
I guess I could try another kernel for cm10/aokp but really grew found of using Wheatley
Hey all.
Found no info on this here, and can't recall hearing about this anywhere else.
I'm currently on PACman 4.3, and been on SlimBean 4.3 for a few days before that. Whenever I put down or pick up my N7100 it makes a sound, like a notification - I can't find it anywhere in settings. Anyone experience this and know what it is and how to disable?
Just a quirk, but it can get annoying during late hours.
Cheers.
If I find the settings for that I'll tell ya. But before I tell you, I'm gonna set "Carmina Burana O Fortuna" as pickup sound and make the most dramatic face impressions everytime I pick my phone up!

Then I take it you aren't afflicted with the same illness?
I've been monitoring my device closely, and sometimes (not always) I can reproduce this sound by putting it down and picking it up. Other times, while I'm holding it up performing some activity it'll do it again - repeatedly or turn glitchy because whatever it is trying to notify me of happened in close succession.
Anyone know what this is?
I'll try the Google+ community of the devs too, and will post feedback here if I get an answer.
Do you have GMD Gesture controls or similar app like CM SPen helper installed and attach/detach sounds activated?
Me likes to flame and troll ... ~°^°~
I tested another rom, then it went away. Back on Slimbean now, and the sound is present again. No GMS here, or Spen helpers.
Will attempt to get in touch with the dev again and post results here.
