Hi all, well Ill be getting another replacment for my TP2. Monday I got my TP2 as a replacement for my TP. One thing I have noticed with the TP2, the keyboard keys dont have that much give, especially the space bar, it puts a space there, but not really sure if I pushed the button down. Plus my volume rocker switches are really really hard to push in..i have to push really hard to increase and decrease volume. My screen gets lines and pixilation when sliding at random times. Plus my screen flickers like its going to crap out soon usually when sliding the screen out. Are these know issues on the TP2?
Sounds like a bum handset.
Yeah, thats what Im thinking...just waiting now for the replacement

No infact some of these issue are rare...like rokr key and stuff...a replacement should suffice you...
Got my replacement and all is better
Has anyone noticed variations in how strong the vibration is across the MT4G? I originally ordered two on a family plan and have exchanged one of these a few times. I noticed that the one original one that I've kept (a plum one) has a nice strong (and loud) vibration, while the few black ones I have had through exchanges have all had a relatively weak vibration (some more weak than others - and all weaker than the plum). Any other thoughts or experiences with this?
I have the white version. I remember first turning on the phone and thinking "HOLY CRAP, THE VIBRATION ON THIS IS A MONSTER". Definitely the strongest vibration I've seen in any phone I've ever owned. I found it to be unusual at first, but I've gotten used to it.
I have a white one with the new screen and it the vibrate is alot louder than my g2. I love it!

I got a black one and it has strong vibration. Kinda wish you could adjust the intensity, like you can on the Galaxy S. These have a much better screen than those, though...
Comparing my black model to my friend's plum model, I can definitely say the plum has a much stronger vibration effect. That doesn't matter to me though, since I keep all vibrating functions disabled.

Agreed. I find vibration alerts to be annoying. The first thing I do after flashing a new rom is disable the vibration alerts.
Mine seems to be just perfect for me, not too strong but enough to alert me. I would like to compare them to other MT4Gs just for the sake of knowing where mine stands though.
Just received my replacement with the "superior" screen, and yeah, the vibration is noticeably weaker on the newer phone. Not to say that it's necessarily "bad", just that my original phone had ridiculously strong vibration.
Anyway, obviously not a deal breaker, and having the better display is way, way more important. Loving this phone again.
My vibration is fine. Definitely feels more natural than the Vibrants vibration.
HTC Glacier Running CyanogenMod 6.2
Just got my device all set up and did a quality control check. No warped body, no yellow spots, no flickering, pretty much perfect. Except the vibration. When I get a text the vibration is super strong. Like the device rattles and makes noise. Anybody else seeing this? I know it's something that could be fixed with root. But obviously that's not an option yet.
Mine makes a small "woosh" whirring noise when it vibrates, too.
The vibration on my phone is pretty timid compared to my aria.

This thing vibrates like an earthquake compared to my Captivate

lol you aint kidding
coming from gnex this thing is nuts. I like it overall except when im typing. Way to strong.
I'm sure the ladies will enjoy this phone
...that's why she keeps taking it

I think it's just HTC's style. I remember my HTC Tilt vibrated like an earthquake also, lol. Maybe it was designed by women...?
I'd rather have too strong of vibration than too weak like the captivate.
Vibration while typing is not loud, however the vibration while receiving texts is quite loud... Is it just my phone or do others notice this as well?
I realize that "too loud" is relative, however my old phone didn't make any noise while vibrating...

yeah it's ridiculous. Maybe someone will find where the vibration intensity settings (if they exist) are buried.
Mine's fine. I mean, I'll hear it if it's sitting on a hard surface like my desk, but if it's in my pocket, I feel the vibration but definitely don't hear it. The vibration on my DHD was audible. Not loud enough to be worried about it, but the One X is definitely quieter.
As for vibration intensity, we'll almost certainly get a mod to adjust this.
Yeah I hear mine more than I feel it in my pocket. It ruins the whole being discrete with text messages or notifications.
Definitely freaking loud as heck.

I'll second this. Should do more vibration, less buzzing. Thin phone, little room for motor and weight spinner...
There has to be some buried settings... The key vibration is nice and mellow... No reason we shouldn't be able to lighten up the notification buzz.
The iPhone 4S introduced a new type of vibration unit that is silky smooth... Hope Apple don't have it patented... Should be used on all future phones.
So probably few of you already know that S22U is using a x axis motor instead of z-axis. This new motor is used to enhance the haptic feedback, however this has reduced the vibration intensity on the device. I got the device last day and was driving with device in my pocket on vibration mode. I missed notifications and calls for an urgent situation as the vibration was so soft and i didn't noticed it. Luckily i had old s8+ on me where i got notified.
My situation doesn't allow me to have a ringer on all the time. I am now thinking of returning the device just because of this. I really loved everything else on this device. Sad to see that samsung engineers screwed this up. No more pre orders going forward.
The vibration motor doesn't really bother me. I am able to feel whenever it goes off in my pocket. And I don't wear skinny jeans lol. Maybe you would be happier with a Motorola since you are a Motorola lover?
I'm experiencing the same with my s22 ultra. I'm coming from a S20 plus which the vibration alone could be used as an alarm clock. Definitely disappointing, considering how much of an upgrade this phone is.

I remember when the s21 came out and reviewers were complaining that the motor was too strong when it was laying down on a table. It was too loud. Now they make a motor that's quieter and now people complain that it's too quiet. It's a rough business

Seems to me to be why there is a setting to adjust the strength to one's personal likes. The issue is it only goes so high. I agree with the OP. I noticed it being weaker despite being set wide open.

Nah.. i ain't happy with motorola anymore.. there was a time. Anyhow.. good for you if you don't find vibration an issue. But it certainly is much more weak. If S21U had strong vibration.. people had option to dial it down.. Here the problem is weak and we don't have an option to increase it, unless samsung does some sort of firmware upgrade to increase intensity further.
A reviewer noted that they're using a different vibration motor this year. It's definitely less strong and there was mention that it moves in a different direction than previous models.
is not a sex toy okay?

Haha, for that price tag, I want it to be one though!
Have my 22 Ultra for a week now.... had to change the vibration to another pattern, otherwise I wouldn't recognize it at all..... that a major downgrade from my old S20 6.1".
People shouldn't call this an improvement at all, thats some kind of fanboysm.
Vibrations purpose is to quietly inform you that you are receiving a call or message, if that does work worse than before, bad decisions have been made.
I still have the possibility to just enable notification vibration on my Galaxy Watch4 , but this comes at the cost of enabling this for every damn notification (teams, telegram, whatsapp.... ) and you know that this is draining the battery pretty fast.... especially if you have friends that spam every now and then...
Samsung implemented the x-axis in the most terrible way. Hopefully Samsung can fix this via an update, but highly doubt it since it's most likely the hardware.
I actually love the refined feel to the motor. It feels great in the hand.

only when its in hand.. if its in your pocket..(specially with loose pants / jackets ) .. you won't even feel the vibration and will miss notifications & calls !
samsung posted an update on the issue -
Why the vibration mode does not work properly on Galaxy S22 Series?
Why the vibration mode does not work properly on Galaxy S22 Series?
www.samsung.com
the vibraton is to low since s6 edge, on note 20 ultra i dont notice any message and on s22 ultra it is more less as before , i ask me why samsung not remove the motor, because for this low intensity it is as it has no motor,
i make it with soundmanager of goodlook app, with custom vibration and make a pattern very long so it's a little pit better, maybe someone make a app like light flow to set a costume vibraton for every app
why they build in so a less motor? they can build in a stronger and more options to set the intensity,

Coming from an s21u I definitely feel the difference in the vibration intensity as well. In my case, what "solved" this issue for me was pairing my s22u with a samsung smartwatch. That way I can feel the notifications vibrations in my arm and never miss it. I know it's not a solution for everyone, but it worked for me at least..
