Hi. I just bought this ohone a couple months ago(maybe 2) and yesterday, the phone will not vibrate out of nowhere. I looked at the setting but couldnt find anything wrong.
Anybody there dealing with the same problem?
I might have to sent my phone to htc to fix it.
quick update. after I restarted the phone for a couple of times, still no luck.
but then I turned my phone off for the whole night, and the next morning, the vibration came alive...
so.. yeah
Im using htc one e8 and my vibration isnt working.Can anyone have any solution?

Try factory reset, and make sure that vibration is on in settings. Double check that in power saver also, you've set vibrations as on if you have power saver turned on. If it still doesn't work, it may be a hardware defect, take to service center!

try to check all the settings. if all is correct, try to shut it down. I shut down mine for almost a night. and the next morning the vibration starts working again for some reasons.
Can u plz tell me all settings means in details?
I had the same problem . I switched off my phone for a whole night and the vibration came alive the next morning.

Guys i am facing a problem..i already searched the whole xda but i didnt find anything..my problem is that my htc cant vibrate anymore...even the htc sence and even when im typing to send a message...at the settings is already set to vibrate all the mods..but nothing works!!any solution please?
did you try a softreset or hardreset? also what rom are you using?
i did soft reset many times...i use stock rom 1,66....!
anyone please??
Do a hard reset. Yes, it'll wipe out all the data and apps but its worth a try. If your phone still don't vibrate, I guess you have a problem with the motor or something.
yeah thats it...
a problem can be caused by a installed program or something else...
after a hardreset, it has to work..if not, you've got a hardware defect.

Check on the back of the phone if your led flash is "pressed in". That could cause the vibrate to stop working.

Same problem here. Flash cover was pushed and stopping the vibration mechanism. openning the back cover and pushing the flash cover so that it flushes with the cover solved the problem. Openning the cover will void your warranty though.

Amazing!!! this worked for me too.
After all this time looking for a software fix...
Good ol' mechanical remedies if an army of vibrating HD2 take over the world, now we know how to stop em
son of a ....
I had the same problem, and found my LED flash to be pushed in after reading this thread.
I opened up the case to correct it. But after putting it back together not only does vibrate not work, but the volume keys, speakers (both earpiece and speakerphone), flash, notification led, and camera all don't work.
I obviously screwed something up, but I have no clue what it could have been. I was very careful. One thing I'll note is that when I pulled the case apart, the volume rocker went flying. When putting the phone back together I got it back into place so that I THOUGHT it should work (it was seated properly and felt "clicky" for up/down movements.
But no luck, all that I listed above is non functional, and what I'm left with is a glorified 3.5 in tablet
Any ideas??
So i've had my Nexus S for a little over a month now, and this morning when I woke up, the phone doesn't vibrate at all anymore. It shouldn't just be a setting because I've rebooted, played with the haptic feedbacks, played with the alarm, etc etc. Nothing works.
Has anyone else had this problem? Did the vibration on my phone just die? I've searched through XDA, and some people have had vibration issues, but only when receiving sms.
(I'm stock everything > locked, unrooted, stock rom)
Hoping someone knows a fix. Thanks in advance!!

Its gonna work trust me.
This may sound stupid, and maybe you've already checked, but under your sound settings is the vibrate set to always? I have things mysteriously uncheck themselves from time to time.. other than that, sadly, wiping would be the way to go..
So I haven't wiped yet because I was working all day but the vibrating came back on it's own for a while. Then it stopped again and now it's back again. Is this a bug? I will wipe this weekend to see it it will fix it completely.
Also, I've checked the settings and ok pretty sure it's set to always vibrate.

OFF-TOPIC
I remember long ago i had sony ericsson i500 (i think) and it had the same problem but one day it broke so i opened it and found out that the cable connecting the "motherboard" to the vibrator wasnt connected properly , you may have the same problem.
Has anyone else experienced an issue with the sensors(gyroscope, accelerometer, compass, magnetic sensor) not working? The sensors will start working every now and then like once a month, for a couple of days. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

What ROM are you using? Can you exclude that this is a software error?

This problem has persisted on every Rom I have used, from Stock, to TrickDroid, to PACman. When I first installed PACman the problem went away for about a month, I thought it was gone for good. I think its a software error since it starts to work every now and then, but I don't really know.

Hmm interesting. Do you still have warranty ? Its a known One X problem so try the following:
- Calibrate your sensor in the settings (will not solve your problem i think)
- Reboot your phone and hold your Power+Volume Up Button at the same time (WHILE reboot,hold them down). Let it bootloop a few times. 4-5 times should be fine. Then release the power button but still hold down your Volume Up Button. Now let it boot. It works for some users without any real explanation.
Good luck

I don't think I have warranty---I never paid for it when I bought the phone. Yeah calibrating the sensor does nothing for me. I tried the second option but I'm not sure if i'm doing it right. The phone doesn't keep rebooting unless I let go of the power button after it turns off. And thanks for the help so far!

You got 2 years warranty on every HTC phone (in Germany. But it has to be 1-2 years outside too). Me neither,i got it for free from a marketing research program and it was ok to send them a copy of my receipt. Anyways, i will help you tomorrow its late here.

Thanks a lot! If this ends up not working out I guess I could just use the warranty
Try to boot in safe mode and then try to calibrate your sensor via settings. Completly shut down your phone and then push the power button until the screen turns on. When you see the HTC logo,hold down the Vol - button. You now should be in safe mode.

I'm on PAC rom...I don't there is an option to calibrate the sensor, but I tried this while I was on stock and it didn't work.
Normally there has to be an option. Are you sure? Look under Display Settings. Try this out: Sensor Calibrator

There would be an option but there isn't on the custom rom that I'm on. That app is for the Proximity Sensor...my proximity sensor works, what doesn't work is the gyroscope, accelerometer,compass, magnetic sensor, and orientation sensor. I think I'll just have to send it in and use the warranty.
Hmm that really doesnt sounds like a simple software error... Hope you still got warranty

I guess I have HTC warranty cause I haven't had the phone for a year yet, the only problem is that I bought the phone online with T-mobile, I didn't get a receipt, so I don't have a proof of purchase. Thanks for the help!
it's a hardware issue guaranteed

I am sure you got an e-mail from them about your purchase. Or call them and ask if they can send you any proof of purchase. Good luck!
Hi all, My Moto G unable to vibrate even activate vibration in the phone. I'm not sure is it a hardware problem.
Is there anyway to test it?

Go to /settings/sound/vibrate on touch (at the bottom) and check that and try it out.
If that easy i wouldn't post it at this forum. Any other suggestion?

Well if that does not work its probably a hardware issue, its that easy ☺ Have you tried a data factory reset?

Go to settings - language and input, then click on the settings icon next to the android keyboard option. Check/tick 'vibrate on key press'.
Now type on keyboard, it should vibrate as you type.
The first suggestion you received will make phone vibrate when any soft key is pressed.
So yes , is that easy.

You ask for help. And we give it to you. Why would you then criticize the correct information you received? It just makes us not want to help. If your phone doesn't vibrate, it is a hardware issue and talk to Motorola or whoever you got you phone from for a replacement.

my vibrator just dead. hardware issue. Some times I reboot phone and works (once)
not sure if doing a hard reset will definitely solve the issue, so i'll wait till some confirmation

Well, that's odd. My Moto G doesn't vibrate anymore since yesterday too. It also crashed yesterday with 50% battery (which happened in the past too, but just when I disabled USB debugging while the phone is plugged-in via cable).
Eventually some silent update which broke something?
+1 no more vibration, reeboot still not
*#*#0842#*#* - Device test (Vibration test and BackLight test) // does not work neither
Same here, after I updated from 5.0.1 to 5.1, no more vibrations, even tested with a test vibrate app, still nothing

Run to the store and get it replaced. Hope you've got some warranty left.
That's what I did and -although mine was replaced by a refurb unit- i never had trouble again and all is working great since 1+yr after I replaced it
First off I would like to say I love the phone EXCEPT for these two major problems. First one....I will pull the phone out of my pocket and it will have put itself into airplane mode. It will cut the bluetoooth on and sometimes cut the location off. I have had it where the screen is on when I pull it out of my pocket and sometimes it will still be locked and this happens. Today it cut the flashlight on and the screen was still locked. I use a pin code for my lock screen. Second and the major one is dropped calls. I have probably made 13 calls and 7 have dropped. On one of them it dropped 3 times on the same person. Sometimes when I pull the phone away from my face after a dropped call or a successful call, the notification bar will be pulled down. Its like the proximity sensor isn't working. I use cricket and have had none of these problems on my S6. I guess when I get time tomorrow I'm going to factory reset but I was just wondering if anyone else was having these problems? Maybe I got a dud.
Maybe your issue is related to mine.
Press the top left of your phone, right next to the power button, a bit hard. Does it make it go on/off? If so, maybe the force when it's in your pants is causing it to turn on and do random functions.

I haven't had time yet. I'm going to try it possible tonight or tomorrow morning when I have more time.
Just did a factory reset. I will find out in the next couple of days if it worked. Will post results. Hope it does. Like it as much as my S6.....except the camera. The camera isn't bad but the S6 is great.
does the factory reset default back to the original out of box software or does it default to the latest version?

It's going to reset to the last ROM that was installed on the phone. Once you update the phone you can't go back. Well you can but you need a custom recovery and the original ROM to flash.
I did the factory reset and seemed to help my problem. No pocket weirdness and calls seem to be fine. Will give it a few more days and post results.
Dropped call
I agree with your second issues: dropped calls.
Even i'm facing the same issue. More than 10 calls were dropped in a day, did factory reset - worked fine for 2-3 days and same issues appeared.
it seems to me something with signal issues.
One of the post in another thread points out the signal issues with the phone.

I'm not having any dropped calls so far but the dialer is still a bit weird. No random airplane mode or anything else while in my pocket though.

im running cricket but i havent noticed any droppped calls or maybe its just i dont talk much lol oh btw some text messages take a bit to send
Not sure if it makes a difference but I use Nova Launcher as my launcher and Rocketdialer as my dialer....and I'm getting normal behavior. The signal is slightly weaker than my nexus 4 was giving me in wcdma mode but that's the only quirk I've noticed.
