Vibrate mode

For the few times about my 6p in vibrate mode, I barely feel it or hear it. Is it just me? Thankfully I've also got the kite flow app so I have custom LED light s setup, but wow.

I find it to be a very quiet phone when in vibrate. So quiet that even next to me on my desk I'll miss a text or something like that several times a day. However, I REALLY don't like beeps, bops, ringers etc etc going off either - so I'm at a loss.

Previously had an HTC m7 and Nexus 6 which would scare the bejezzus out of me when they went off - they never got left on a hard surface, always a pad of paper or something.

Yes, I know what you mean, my previous phones were all louder when vibrating. It's just weird I guess.

It isn't just you. This phone has a very weak vibrate compared to other phones. I tried looking it up once and I found a couple of Reddit posts discussing the weak vibration.

If your phone is rooted, with the ElementalX kernel and the EX Kernel Manager app, you can adjust the vibration intensity. It does help a little.

No I'd rather not root my phones anymore. My older Nexus 6 got horrible Battey life months after I rooted it. I suppose I just have to Keep the ringer on as much as I can this phone is a very loud phone though. Thanks for the comments though.

You can always try my experiment with me. When Newegg had the Huawei watch on sale for 200 I grabbed one. I really just wanted one, but my "justification" was so that I'd have another way of catching my notifications.

Of course, working from home, I tend to forget to put it on in the morning. And I find when it's not in my wrist, it's LOUD, but once it's on, I'm suffering again from the silent motor syndrome. I can't feel of hear it. But I did grab an app that let's you adjust how long, or how many of notifications you get for each app so we'll see.

But I am enjoying it very much! And with 2.0 around the corner I'm hoping it'll be that much better.

I just got mine and the vibrate is nice and strong, so I can easily hear it when it's set on my desk.

Compared to my last G4, this is 100x better. Even now that I put my new Spigen case on it.

I hardly ever feel vibrations when a phone is in my pocket, so I can't really compare on that.
