Why has HTC U11 stopped vibrating since the Oreo upgrade?

[NicBen]

Hi folks, I just updated my U11 to Oreo last night and I have realised that the phone only vibrates when calls are coming in. It doesn't vibrate with any other apps.

I have checked with the apps and vibrate is still turned on.

Can anyone shed some light?

Have you tried to wipe the cache partitions?

my phone is not having the issue but I'm having battery issues. So I'm probably going to do a factory data reset. or because I've already wiped the chassis partition. so I will do that tonight. and see how it is.

 

[NicBen]

No.... How do I do this?

 

[NicBen]

Did it improve after doing this?

 

[usguyver]

unfortunate for me after I wipe the check the partitions it did nothing for me. for I was having issues with my battery after the update when I wasn't before on 7.1.1 I even in a factory data reset and that did not work so I think it's something in the 8.0 update and hopefully she says another update to fix it.

Same problem here, just updated today and even though vibration is on nothing causes the phone to vibrate. Edge sense still works but no vibration feedback with it.

Honestly this update is horrible in general and I really hope there's another or a fix out soon. UI seems really jerky and way too fast. Instead of a fade when you lock the phone it's just instant black and it's this way for most things. It's like the UI is running 100x faster than it should and makes everything janky and jarring.

I really hope it is fixed soon... It's hard to function without vibration

If your phone is in power saving mode it turns off the vibrate feature. You have to turn this off and it will vibrate for text and other notifications

Thanks a million, I just found that it today, so I was about to share... I wish I saw this post from last year... So it's vibrating again

Hi guys.

I just created an account in android central to Thank You for letting me know if I "Turn off battery saver" my problem will be solved.

Thanks again. I am enjoying my HTC u11 again.
