Random vibrations

Okay, I have a GS4 running 5.0.1 Lollipop

At the time of me writing this post, my sound settings are set to vibrate when I get texts, calls, when I trace my pattern on my lock screen (haptic feedback I guess), and when I use my keyboard. Everything else is off.
At random points throughout the day, my phone will vibrate, and I don't know why. After it vibrates, I'll check my phone and I have no new notifications, no missed calls, no unread texts, nothing. It's almost as if it vibrates because it thinks it would be a fun thing to do. Can anyone help me at all? I've been everywhere and looked at everything and still there is nothing that's worked. I'll continue looking, but for now, I still need help!
Thanks!

Re: Random vibrations

I have been messing with the settings on my sister's GS4 trying to recreate your issue so far unsuccessfully.

I never had that when I had my GS4, I'll ask around.

Re: Random vibrations

I have the same problem but found out it vibrates when I lose Bluetooth connection or when it is restored. I have hearing problems and use Bluetooth to communicate with my Hearing aid and Cochlear implant, so it is on all the time. The little box I wear around my neck can loose contact if I simply cross my arms over it and that will cause the the phone to vibrate! It took me a while to figure out what was going on!
