[Q] Vibration on Phone not working - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Having trouble with vibration notifications on an S4 GT 19506 version 4.2.2 and Baseband I9506XXUBMK7
I have set the phone to vibrate all the time on missed calls, sms messages etc but it has recently stopped doing this. Tried everything in the settings and have a sound notification widget and when I change this to vibrate it won’t vibrate
Also downloaded the vibration notifier app and still cannot get phone to vibrate
Anyone got any possible solutions or anything I am missing?

Hello,
Maybe your vibrator motor is broken.
To test it, in dialpad write *#0*# and select Vibration test

The way the HD vibrates, can this be changed?

I had the same issue when I had a Tytn II last year.
My issue is that when the phone rings while in normal mode, it is one constant vibration, which I dont like.
Also when i receive a text message in normal mode, the vibration is constant and lasts for about 4 seconds.
BUT
when the phone is in vibrate mode, the vibration for calls is a on/off vibration which I like, and for texts is 3 sharp vibrations which is a lot more useful in distinguishing whether it is a phone call or text that i am receiving when the phone is in my pocket.
Is there anything I can do to make the HD behave the way it does in vibrate mode for all calls?
There must be some sort of registry setting that can be tweaked.
Thanks in advance for any replies..
anyone?
Try this, It could be what your looking for.

Would also be interested.
i remember back in the day, my Nokia 6310i (yeah not even color phone) would vibrate to the ring tone.
valert is cool, but on the HD has a bug that disables volume keys
I've installed VAlert but cant find it anywhere?
Try the attached utility. It's conf is under system settings.
nezz, the app has cyrillic interface: any chance to have it in latin (or at least a translation of what the 3 checkboxes mean?)
thanks
Is there a reg tweak for this? When you turn the phone on it does 2 short vibrations. i would like to use this as the sms vibrate alert. Is that possible?
Thanks!

Vibration patterns

HI,
Is there anyway you can change the way in which the phone vibrates, ie rather than having a continuous vibration on incoming calls, or sms, change it so it pulses?
Cheers

Problem with Vibrate Function

When my Galaxy Note is ringing, at first there is a short vibrate and more there is no vibrate although i've set vibrate function on always.but it is work well for notification such as SMS.
It is noticable that when phone is silent , vibration works well on notification and phone ringing.
Another problem is when i use GO SMS instead of defult message of Android.In the GO SMS Notification setting everything is ok means that i've set vibrate on always and sms rington on silent and disabeld android default notification but vibrate doesnt work.
I test my phone vibration from *#0*# but vibrate doesnt work in this test.
Really i dont know this is hardware or software problem. Phone Rom is JPKK2 ( Official Rom).
How can i fix it??

Silent Mode Not Notify Incoming Calls in Full Screen

When I recived incoming call in silent mode, the phone not notify me at full screen call incoming , only with a little icon at notification bar; only in Silent Mode, in Vibrate o Normal its fine, the incoming call notify me at full screen with the buttons Green and Red.
Its since three or four weeks, before that its working fine. I try to deinstall app that install the last weeks, but nothing.
I dont know if touch somethig at configuration, icant remember that.
Someone with the same issue? any ideas?
Sorry for my english, I'm spanish.
Thanks
Same thing with my G6. I use smartwatch, so sound is always off in my phone. I cannot answer from smartwatch, because I have Samsung Gear S2 and it can answer only with Samsung Galaxy phones. So whenever I have incoming call I have to unlock my phone, pull down notifications, and only then I can answer the call. So annoying!
I am going to have to get rid of my LG G6 and get Samsung. What a pity because otherwise G6 is a wonderful phone.
