won't vibrate in silent mode

[Pambeck24]

For some reason my phone will not vibrate in silent mode anymore. Its a refurbished atrix 4g. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but I cannot fix it for the life of me. Can anybody help? Thank you!!!

try" vibrate mode by force" from.the market. very neat little app....

 

[Pambeck24]

It didn't work for me thank you though!! Any other suggestions?

Does your phone vibrate in any other occasions? (keyboard, android keys etc..)

It only vibrates when I initially turn my ringer off..other than that nada..I've tried everything I can think of...

Try this. Go to Menu > Settings > Sound > Vibrate > then make sure always is checked. There is a setting in there for never and that may be what your phone is on. Hope that helps.

i already have it set that way i think it has to do with it being refurbished. im not sure though..thank you for the suggestion!

no because mine does it too and i got mine brand new. are you also experiencing lag between homescreens? i dont know if any of my problems are connected or not.

lag btwn homescreens
sometimes a double vibrate/hesitation when unlocking phone and longpressing

i downloaded an app called audio manager and now my phone vibrates again..just make sure whatever you want to vibrate is marked..ie notifications, ringtones etc...the lagging doesnt happen to me much but my phone freezes every now and then for no reason...other than that its a pretty good phone

hi Pambeck24,


hi, you might want to check your sms inbox settings. go to your sms inbox, press menu, message settings, check the vibrate box then that should solve the problem. I just found out about this solution earlier.

the down side is, when ever you don't want it to vibrate you have to go thru that process all over again.

i hope i gave you another solution.
