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.

Hi, I've seen this problem in other places, but no answer to it yet:
I've always used my phone as my alarm, but I get an unexpected sleep-in this morning when the alarm didn't go off! I've just tested it, and putting the phone to "sleep" by pressing the power button seems to prevent the alarm from going off.
If I don't press the power button (which I started doing as it locks the keypad really easily), the screen never goes off. I guess that's just a setting.
Will try again for tomorrow morning, without putting sleep on. But is this a bug or a "feature", anyone know?

Nope. Mine is working perfectly even in "Sleep Mode".

mine works fine too.
as for the fact that the screen never goes off, that can be adjusted if you go to settings/ power and/or settings/ system/ backlight/.
What software do you have installed?
I used to use PocketZenPhone, however it was mucking up the alarms.
Clean your notification queue is the other thing. Pocket Mechanic is good for this.
Well it woke me up this morning - but it still doesn't work if I lock the keys by single-pressing the power button. It does work with the red end-call key to lock the phone after a long key press. Less usable, but some mornings I just have to wake up!

I have no specific configuration. I set my alarm for the 5 working days with sound and vibration, press the power button, and no problems at all.
Ensure that you set the right time, example: morning instead of afternoon.
Play a bit to become familiar with it.
Ran into problems where my phone got wet, the volume up button is stuck so it's always try to adjust the ringer and the ringer volume screen keeps appearing. This is annoying because I can't really see my screen and it keeps making that beeping sound. Until I get a replacement (if I can) is there a way to disable the volume up key? My phone is rooted so is there some kind of modification I can make in the system?
anyone?...
could you possibly take the phone apart and unstick the volume button or maybe even without taken the phone apart. you could also find/create an app that takes over for the the stock volume control with an option to disable physical changes to volume

Since water got into it I dont know if it's actually stuck? I just think it got fried somehow because it just randomly adjusted the volume. I was trying to find an app but I was unsuccessful, I wish I knew how to create an app.
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!
So I had something interesting happen this morning. I was listening to a podcast app through Bluetooth. I wanted to pause, so I flipped open my case, the screen turned on, and when I pressed the home button (oops I meant to just rest my finger on it. Still getting used to that) my phone...turned off.
Despite the title, I would say it didn't power off. It was like pulling the battery. Screen just turned off and I couldn't get it back on. Pressing and holding the power button didn't do anything. I was unable to do anything until I plugged my phone in. Then the battery charging indicator came on the screen. It was at 93%. I unplugged, and then when I held the power button it booted right up.
I have no idea why it did this. I doubt it was an app issue, since I couldn't get the phone to power up. Anyone else had something like this happen? Other than this I've had zero issues with the phone. I've left it at stock, unrooted.

Did the same problem occurred again?
Nope. Just tried to repeat it, and no issue
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.
