This is probably a duplicate but I can't find other posts.
My phone vibrates periodically when I'm on a call. Previous phone have had a call timer that would do that every minute so the user would stay aware that you're using up your minutes. This seems like something similar but i can't find any setting like that in any of the system menus.
I'm using a rooted HTC One S with the 1.54 firmware. No mods other than root.
Anyone know how to turn this off?

Did you enable vibrate on incoming call and on notifications? I don't use vibrations and I have never had an above problem. I have downloaded "profile scheduler" app from market and it has many settings. Try it.
I do have those two events on vibrate but what's happening is not a buzz when a call or txt comes in but rather every once in a while during an active call the phone will vibrate for no apparent reason. Usually causes the person on the other end to ask "what the h**l was that??"

I have developed a strange issue as of late with my text message notifications while my Fuze is in standby. When I have the system/ring volume up, it notifies me just fine, even when in standby, but when I put it to vibrate I get no notification (besides the flashing ring) of a text message or email. This only happens when I am running a rom that is not stock. The problem goes away when I flash back to stock, but re-appears again if I flash to a custom rom, regardless of which chef's rom I use. Any help would be much appreciated, as its killing me to be stuck on this stock rom lol.
this happens to me to , you should try G-profile . look it up on google or search it here .
basically you can make a profile that overrides all other profiles and if the notifacation only works for a period of time you can make enough profiles that it switches before it stops notifing again . :] good luck !
Thanks for the advice, I will give that a try if all else fails. I would really like to figure out the root of this issue, rather than a work-around. I have noticed questions about this issue pop up in other rom threads, but no answers seem to have been posted.
Edit: The phone functionality is unaffected by the change from tone to vibrate, it works as expected when I receive a phone call. The text message and email notifications, however, do not.
I have the same thing on the ROM is my sig.
The only way I found to make it work is that you have to check the Vibrate option in the Sounds & Notifications for the alert you want.
For example...New Test Message...it wouldn't vibrate if that was unchecked, but if I checked it, then it vibrates just fine.
for me i get text notifications but no email notifications :[ . i use the app for the work around because people have actually been mean to me saying that its impossible to not get notifacations :[
I have the same problem. Ive checked vibrate under text and all, yet it does not vibrate and only does the flashing ring. What should i do
The title says it all.

Title says it all, but it's still vague as hell. Vibrate problems on ringing/notification? Haptic feedback in general? Elaboration is your friend.
Staying on post, I didn't notice any vibration issues while I had it turned on, but its since been turned off to conserve battery life.
I have this problem all the time, Im vague for everything without realizing it. I meant vibrate for notifications. I tried turning it on in settings but nothing.
If you want it to vibrate for your text messages you must go into the settings in the messaging app and turn it on as well as in the global settings. Same for email i believe.
Well, that did it. thank you very much.
thx that helps me too.
I just want to chime in on this situation and say that I had the same problem on my completely stock evo shift. One moment it worked perfectly and the next it didn't. After several attempts at checking settings and hard/soft resetting, come to find out it was a faulty motor in mine that worked when it wanted to. Had my phone replaced at the sprint store after a supposed cleaning fixed it and then failed again after 3 vibrating notifications. Just another possible resolution/observation.

Actually I have the opposite problem, I cannot disable notifications vibration ( for messages ) on MIUI ... but I found out this was caused by the apps settings ( Fb messanger / Wechat / What'sup )
Hi,
I have got an issue that when the new SMS arrives the phone doesn't vibrate. I checked all possible settings and it says everywhere that it should vibrate. I just have wiped the phone completely and reloaded it with my ROM (see signature) and then I sent text message to myself just after it rebooted first time and the problem still exists. It vibrates without any problems on incoming calls.
Any ideas what can cause that, or maybe there is hidden setting that I haven't found that prevents it from vibrating?
Thanks
OK, I have resolved that. It was set everywhere apart from the settings in "Messages". It was set to Vibrate->Never. I was not even aware of that setting... I think it wasn't there on my HD2 ROM or it was always set to vibrate.
Please close this thread.
Short version: my default setting is vibrate. But recently my phone has been setting to silent without my doing anything. I'll leave me phone alone for an hour or so and when I unlock it I'll have missed calls and texts because it didn't vibrate, and my sound setting will have been changed to "silent" . This doesn't happen all the time, probably about half the time.
Some notes:
- the physical vibration works, I don't believe it's a hardware issue.
- persistent apps I am using: 1 tap quick bar, covinent eyes, onavo extend.
- no custom roms, not rooted.
- I always set my phone back to vibrate. I did to one experiment where I set my ring tone volume at max to see if it would still set itself to silent. Which it did.
- I also did a test where I left my phone out of my pocket to see if maybe I was accidentally hitting the screen and volume rocker. Still changed on its own without me touching it.
- there are no crash reports or force closes as far as I know, and I don't use app killers.
Rant: I'm very disappointed in HTC. The software on this phone is buggy and jittery. And where the heck is my jelly bean?
I uploaded screens of my software information incase anyone's interested.
Please help me with my mystery. I searched the forums for people with similar problems and haven't really found anything.
Thanks!

its because you have installed onavo extend for sure. same problem here
I'm not at the point where I'm considering putting another ROM on my shiny (literally!) new Z3, but the biggest thing I miss from Slimroms is the apparent total lack of Quiet Hours or anything like it. (In case you don't know, it lets you prevent the phone from making a noise, vibrating, lighting up etc when an incoming text, phone call etc occurs). Apparently, when I'm sleeping I'm always one piece of spam, or an alert that someone's replied to one of my posts here, from being woken up. And i'm not desperate to mute my phone because then i'll miss (potentially) important phone calls.
How are you dealing with this?

there is lots of planner/tasker app in play store for you to manage almost everything you want
:good:
Does the Z3 have the "Smart Connect" app? If so there are automation options there. For example, you can set it to go to complete silent, start the alarm and clock app IF the phone is plugged in and it is between x and y hours.
Smart connect set new event based on time, set time start, volume off, vibrate off, set end time volume up, vibrate on.

Smart connect should work fine, but if you want choices I use Agent and it works great.

Been using this on my Galaxy S3 for a long time before I upgraded to the Z3. Works great, and is very very low resources. I use it to set my phone to silent at work automatically.

Just tried it, but it's no good because I can't silence notifications without silencing incoming phone calls at the same time. The app suggests what I want isn't possible without a custom rom.
Have a look at this absolute fantastic app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nightskeeper
This is the best quite hours solution in Play Store imo and should be exactly what you need. btw you can define whitelists and the app has an excellent emergency function: when someone calls e.g. more than three times in 5 minutes, the app lets the phone ring although quite hours are activated

Thanks, tried that out but needs too many permissions and it's way too complicated.

Using this for now. Limited but at least it works. Using it to turn off data and sound so it's basically like turning the power off.
