I always have my phone on vibrate, but for some reason, after some time, vibrate stops working and it's as if I only had my phone on silent. The vibrate icon is still there, but my phone no longer vibrates on notifications and calls. Is there some behaviour that I don't know about that brings this about? ... is there any way to always have vibrate on?
Screen randomly turns on and refuses to go off unless you press the power button?
My S6 is on 5.0.2 (No 5.1.1 for the international S6 yet) and this happens when there's no charger plugged in and no new notification. No case on it or anything pressing against the power button. Its definitely a software related bug. It happens randomly maybe twice or thrice a day but I've only noticed it in the past 2 days. Its happened almost 10 times so far including thrice in the past 4 hours.
My main concern is screen burn on the Amoled (happened to one of my Lumia's and the huge battery drain if I don't notice that its turned on.
I have recently noticed a strange issue with my Nexus 5. I have it set to ring when I get a call and once I answer that call and hang up, it automatically turns to vibrate on inbound calls. I kept thinking I was hitting something on accident, but I watched my phone as my husband called and I just ended the call and it turn to vibrate within 2-3 seconds.
my blackberry storm 9500 turns its self off all the time can be up to 10 times a day. the auto off settings are diabled took it to a phone shop and they said it needs updating. i have done this and there is no improvement. downloaded blackberry app world and now when i turn it on it says caught unexplained content whats rong with it?
I got a refurbished Bold 9700 today. I have it set just as I did with my old one, but it WILL NOT vibrate and ring at the same time. If I have vibrate checked to on and vibration with ringtone checked to on, it vibrates twice and then rings. If I go into custom, it still vibrates BEFORE ringing. The phone is still on AT&T's official .405 OS right now, and I'm doing the update to .593 right now. Maybe that will help? I'm not sure.
We have 3 of these phones in our family as well as 1 international version.All have the latest software updates as I just checked after reading the posts here.When set to ring AND vibrate, they ONLY vibrate 2x and then begin to ring ONLY.How to get them to ring AND vibrate?I have volume set to high and with the other settings, I fully expect 'vibrate and tone' but I cannot make it happen.
The display for Screen Timeout always keeps turning on and off, Even tho i set it at 15 seconds. I check the setting of my phone and i cant find the root of the problem. I had my 2.1 update and my apps installed weeks ago and was okay. Till yesterday my phone started acting up weird.
My Iphone (white) turns on then off then on then off then on then off! Finaly when I eventually get to the lock screen it says: conect to power but I charged it last night and the percent bar (top right) says 100% . Now it says to charge with itunes? What am I supposed to do!
Whenever my phone (HTC one M7) turns off it forgets all wifi networks i have signed into, meaning that when it switches back on I have to type in passwords again. This has been happening since i upgraded my software to android lollipop 5.0.2 ....
Every time I get a text message my screen turns on and off. I don't have this problem with any other notification I get just text messages. The screen just turns on and off in like a seconds time.I dont know if its a setting I might have set or if I have a bad phone.
How do I customize the call notification to vibrate and the text message notification to sound at the same time for vibration mode? The vibration mode works fine for me (both call and message notifications vibrate only), but sound notification for text messages when I am in the middle of something. I am a new Android user and it seems that both settings cannot be done separately for the vibration mode.
I read several places in connection with the new 2.3.5 update it will be possible to separate screen time-out time from screen lock time. So that you screen would go dark after fx. 15 seconds and lock after 60 seconds
I have been using my samsung galaxy pretty heavily being as i just got it a week ago. I have noticed with heavy use it does not last me a whole day. Yesterday i let the battery drain all the way out so that i could completely cycle through. It ended up takeing a little over 3 hours to fully charge again. Was curious how many hrs of usage other people are averageing and how many hrs of charge time?
I finally found a S6 with good button and display, but I think I have again bad luck: from time to time, camera is failing and is not related to low power because I encounter the issue at 80% battery level.
I tried factory reset, clear cache and data, and it comes back. But always, the camera is working after pressing Clear all in Smart Manager. If I simply kill the processes using the standard task manager, the camera shows the same error.
if it's an hardware problem, as I read online, why works after clean all operation? I have stock ROM, without root or special app(just fb, dropbox installed)
I've noticed I've been missing a few calls when the phone is in my pocket, so ran a few tests and now realise that my phone is not vibrating. I've checked all the obvious settings and it should be. I'm on ICS 4.0.3
Any way of having different vibrate options on the S6 Edge? I would like to have one vibrate for emails, and a different one for text messages. Reason being, when I'm in bed and I hear my phone vibrate, I would like to know if its a message, or an email coming in.
Every time i use the left side volume button, or sound settings cog, and try to set my phone to vibrate, the ringer goes to vibrate, but the notifications automatically ho to silent. I want to set BOTH ringer and notifications to to vibrate.
Ever since my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6 system was updated to version G920VVRU1AOE2 two or three days ago, I receive a notification at 6:20 am with the day's weather prediction, and the notification uses sound + vibrate. I can find no way to turn off the sound and the vibration of this notification. Android version is still 5.0.2. How to mute this event?
I have even checked my phone to my wife's S6 and as far as I can see, our settings are the same yet her phone doesn't vibrate when she gets a notification.
I’ve been struggling all morning trying to get my S5 to vibrate when icons are tapped on “Vibrate” sound mode to no avail.
Is there anything I can do to enable this feature? Unless I must have dreamed this feature was available all this time along. I swear I have felt my icons vibrate when tapped. Matter of fact, anytime I tapped any icon, I'm sure the phone lightly vibrates to indicate success, when I first had my phone but it's not working any more.
WhataApp: Vibrate is turned off in the app for group messages and only turned on for private messages, but the phone vibrates for all messages when the phone is on vibrate. Before, in vibrate mode, the phone only would vibrate for private messages.
Text message: Use to vibrate twice to differentiate text from other notifications, but now only vibrates once like all other notifications.
