Phone vibration on button touch - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6

I've found the setting to uncheck. So that the phone no longer vibrates when typing on the keyboard. But the phone still vibrates on other functions. Such as tapping the screen of the phone buttons.
in the note2. One box unchecked turned it all off. That don't seem to be the case with the s6. So how do i turn the vibration completely off. To preserve my battery. I don't really care or need to have phone vibrate. Wish samsung would just get rid of that motor.

Random vibrate?

Does anyone have this problem?
My phone would vibrate randomly. Very short vibration, kind of like haptic feedback when typing on the keyboard. Not very often, but once or twice every few days (that I have noticed). There would be no notification or led blink, and I don't think I have turned off any sort of notification beside vibrating for any app...
Usually sound plays when my phone is dying, maybe you have it on vibrate so its a small vibrate to let you know that power saving has come on? I have no idea, just poking in the dark here.
I happen to have a similar issue. Don't know if it relates but mine happens to vibrate when pushing the volume buttons. Strange habit of mine, pushing the buttons of my phone when it is in my pocket.
Don't know if this helps you in any way but thought I would mention it

If you press and hold the volume down button, the phone will silent itself and turn itself into "vibrate mode", but that's not the case here.

Maybe but I'm not sure. I remember a few days ago I simply had my phone laying flat on my desk when I was working. It vibrated so I picked it up to check for message, only to find that it vibrated for nothing. There was nothing on the notification bar (there would be a triangle with ! if power saving is on). Weird

It doesn't do that when locked

Put me down for a "me too". I'm getting the random vibrations once or twice a day (that I notice, at least). I had the same thing happen, too, that you described -- my phone was on my desk at work and then randomly did a short "half-vibrate" -- but there were no notifications or any reason it should have vibrated. Must be a bug...
happens to me when a call connects i.e if i dial out and hen i hit a voice mail it will vibrate very shortly

Then your vibrate is not random.
Is it in your pocket or in your hand when it vibrates? I have heard of this strange phenomenon where you get these phantom vibrations on your leg where your phone would be resting against your leg in your pocket, but when you check your phone, there wouldn't be any messages. It used to happen to me all the time after I got a phone that would vibrate with incoming calls/messages, lol. It sometimes still happens, but not as much anymore. The human mind is so fascinating!
Edit, sorry, i didn't see the post where you had said that it was on your desk.
It's weird... After I posted it here, I have never experienced any random vibrate anymore.
I've had it but only while using go launcher. Uninstalled it and never had it again.

Hrm, i'm just curious now if this is only me or some others are experiencing this too. Recently I flashed HyperSensation CM7 rom and I'm using FauxClock's kernel. Before my phone would not vibrate when I put it in silent or vibrate mode. All of a sudden yesterday after I rebooted a few times, the vibrate started to work in both vibrate and silent mode. Now it won't stop vibrating for no reason. It's a double vibrate, and sometimes I would receive at least 3-4 vibrates in consecutive times. I check my phone, my notification LED does not light up, I don't have any messages coming in, there are no Facebook notifcations, I don't have any e-mail's coming in.
Also whenever I reboot my phone and it finishes rebooting and shows me my lockscreen, it vibrates 2-3 times of the same doulbe vibrate rhythm. Does anyone know where I messed up while I was playing with my settings? My phone does vibrate when it's on loud when I receive messages or calls or other functions like my alarms. It just didn't vibrate before when I put it in silent/vibrate mode. Now it won't stop vibrating and this has been going on for 14 hours. I'm going nuts!

Vibrate turns off

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?
Much thanks!

Do you have one of the power saving modes turned on? What is your battery % at when the vibrate turns off. It may be trying to save power.

No power saving active. It just happens randomly. My suspicion is I may be pressing the volume button up or down in my pocket accidentally, but I can't be sure or if pressing the volume button while locked would even matter.

Any way to make watch only turn on with button press?

Hi. I was wondering if the watch can be set up to only turn on when a button is pressed. Right now, I have it set up to turn on when turning my wrist. This is good, but there are times that it comes on when doing other things.
Thanks.

There is an option in settings - device.. ?
From S5
Settings>Device> Wake-up gesture (off)
Perfect! Thanks a lot. For some reason, I thought that shutting this off would just always leave the watch on. Instead it stays on for something like ten seconds and then shuts itself off.
Excellent!
You can turn it off even quicker by just putting two fingers (as opposed to your whole hand) over the screen should you want to preserve as much batt as possible..

Switching to vibrate only at random.

I can´t figure out what´s wrong, obviously "do not disturb" is off, the slider is always on "ring" and I am missing a lot of calls due to this issue. It happens randomly, I can´t really pinpoint at anything that seems to be the culprit.
I am wondering whether the full cover is somehow silencing the phone or if an app is doing it. Are there any default gestures for vibrate only I am not aware of?
Are you accidentally hitting Power Button + Vol Up? This pops up a toast that says "Calls and notifications will vibrate."

Any way to turn that off? ... I think that could be it, the way the full cover is made it would very well explain what happens when I sit down. The hinge is just above the power button.

Turn off screen wake

Every notification I get wakes up screen and causes accidental touches in pocket. How to disable? I just want sound vibrate alert not awake phone

Try this, go to Settings - Accessibility - Advanced settings - Flash notification and disable SCREEN FLASH.
Has anyone figured out a solution to this? I'd really wish the screen would only turn on with the power button... Even when phone calls come in, I always have to CAREFULLY drag it out of my pocket so I don't accidentally hang up or answer.... This and a thousand other scenarios
