Fixed one problem, that created another with my phones vibration - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I just fixed the mic issue on my phone with this tutorial "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Af5DvIZwSss" and it worked great, but now the vibrations for phone phone dont work. Did I do something wrong, possibly mess up something? I did it exactly the way the video shows, didnt touch anything else. Anyone know what could have happened or how I could fix it?

The nexus 5's vibration motor is in the back panel. You might have slightly bent it.Give a gentle push right below the camera flash so the motor's connector can make contact with the circut board.

Speaker doesn't work

My vox it's three months old, from one week I started to notice a very disturbing behavior. People are able to hear me but I can''t hear them. It seems like the internal speaker is flawed. If I use the miniUSB head phones it works fine and If I turn on the conference speaker it works too. Otherwise it just doesn''t work anymore. I have soldered directly speaker's wires on the board but the problem it's the same. What can I do?
Please, nobody can help me? I have tried also to add reg key wm6SoundFixRegistryImport but the problem it's the same. I'm sure that other people have this problem.
this seems like a hardware problem which you can get serviced by sending your phone to htc.
No, I can't because I haven't warranty. I'm sure that isn't a hardware problem because I can hear a little rustle.
i m facing exactly same problem as well. spearkerphone works fine but earphone do not worki.. if u find any solution then let me know too...
THe problem it's the speaker, I tried another from a motorala and it work! Where Can I find htc parts?
can u guide me how to open the htc phone to reach earphone speaker u mentioned?

Desire S Audible Selection tone problem.

Anyone else getting an issue where the audible selection tone sometimes will not make a sound when phone is left idle for about 3 seconds? Usually it works fine, but like stated before if you leave it alone for a short period of time, and you make a selection, theres a tiny faint sound, almost like a low "tick sound". When i got my phone like a month ago, it had this issue, then after a couple days it fixed by itself. The tones was loud and clear when i press something, it never had the low "tick sound" But after i reboot my phone yesterday, because i didn't reboot my phone for like a month, it happened again.. Anyone here experience this issue? Is it a hardware related issue, or a software?
guys, please help me out. I had this issue when i got my phone brandnew, but after a couple of days it was fixed. But after a i rebooted my phone, it happened again. Any ideas? Thanks!
Disable audible touch tones, they are horrible anyway.
Problem solved!

you could just always make annoying little beeps noises, every time that you press a key?
^HAHA. But, i just want to make sure that my phone doesn't have any problems. Do you experience it too?

I'm afraid that I always disable any touch tone sounds as they annoy me...
So haven't ever experienced this. Sorry.

I can hear something inside my phone when I shake it. Hmm. Weird

Guys,
I'm beginning to doubt but there must be something wrong with my phone. When I shake it, I hear something is kind of loose inside. Do you experience the same too? I can't remember that I had this before. Phone is working without any problems though.
Cheers,
Me
Open your camera app and shake it. Now is the noise gone? It's the camera & the image stabilization.

The camera sensor no worries
Still there. Thanks everyone. Finally can sleep in peace knowing what it is.

Hardware issue? Strange noise from vibration motor.

Does anyone else have an issue with the vibration motor making a weird noise? Almost like it's not stuck in the phone properly. When I squeeze the phone it stops, as soon as I let go the sound returns.

Sounds like you have a problem,my vibrate is quite loud but not as electronic sounding as yours.Mine is more deep bassey almost
If it also makes that sound when flat on a table or in your hand instead of on the case, then something is wrong indeed.

Just looking at your video again. When you lift it up from the surface it sounds more like it does on mine

Yes, it does it whenever the phone vibrates. Makes no difference if it's in the case, out, flat on the table etc. Only stops when I pinch the phone.
I'll start a chat with Oneplus for a repair order
Oh **** that's not good. Mine sounds tinny but solid. Not as nice as phones like the LG V30, but acceptable. Definitely that sounds bad. Take it back for warranty replacement IMO
I had the same problem and had to reduce the intensity of vibration via settings. Working is acceptable since then.
Only that it scared me when it suddenly started up.

Sounds like you have a unique vibrator that no other phone has. Embrace it or... You should probably replace, because that's an actual moving part, and if not to spec, it could lead to a catastrophic failure, whatever that means.

That's one way to look at it. You're a glass half full kinda guy
I've send it back to OnePlus for repair monday, should have it back tomorrow. Happy for the quick repair by OnePlus.
I have the same exact problem. The strong vibration setting causing it but when I put it on medium its fine.
*Man, it would take like 2 weeks to get my phone back, I don't know if I should sent it for repair or not. :/
I have the same problem. Contacted OnePlus via live chat and was told this is normal and it happens on her OnePlus phone on strong vibration setting.
I decided to check on YouTube to see where the vibration motor is located. Put the phone down on a flat hard surface, applied a little pressure on the bottom half of the phone by holding phone by the sides. This seems to have 'fixed' it for me for now.
Looks like it is not 'normal' behaviour as the lady in customer services suggested. Probably just a slight quality control issue.
edit: seems it was temporary 'fix'. Rattling is back.
My launch-week OP6 just developed this issue. Leads me to believe it might be something like an adhesive working loose over time. Thank you for this thread. I've put my call vibration on medium (was high) which seems to alleviate it.
I have sent my OP6 for repair. Dropped it off at the local UPS service location, it is going from the UK to Poland. Lets see how long the turnaround will be and what, if anything, they do to fix this.
Checked the RMA tracking today and apparently the fault has been fixed. Spoke to someone on OnePlus live chat who said the vibration motor was faulty and has now been replaced.
Took a total of 4 days to receive the phone back. Vibration motor replaced and no longer rattles when set to 'Strong'. Now just restoring apps and data on the phone.

Have the same issue in strong vibration setting. Open a service ticket with OnePLus. Did you send your phone with the original retail box ???,

OnePlus provided a return label to send from UK to Poland. I packed the phone in the original box for protection. Not necessary to send back in original box but has to be packed securely.
I have the same problem with the strange vibration sound.... But it only happens sometimes.
The noise comes from the metal power button and volume button. Nothing to be worried about. Its annoying but you can fix it by using full back cover.

I have a problem with my flip camera on ZenFone 6, anyone kindly look into this and

The more frustrating issue im facing is, sometimes, (not all thr time) camera's reverse rotation is not fully occuring and stops still little out side the housing at the same time the camera module is loose enough to go inside the housing and comes out little bit when the phone faced downwards in the air.
If anyone has the same problem, please let me know
EDIT: my phone is running on latest firmware
There is a calibration tool in Settings. It may fix your problem.

No problem here.
Check if your Flip Camera and its metal dock is clean.
Calibrate Flip Camera and check functionality.
Service it.
I also have a problem
The camera thinks something is blocking it when i try a fast flip even if nothing is there and says impossible to flip. Sometimes it works.
I cannot calibrate it because of this problem
And it seems clean.
If i drive the camera manually it works but i can see the beginning of switch is a bit hard.
Retracting camera always works well.
All ideas are good to try
