Hey, I was just on my way to work and noticed that my phone does not vibrate any more. I've ran the Dell 2.2 update again, changed setting and rebooted a couple of times. This just started today. I haven't dropped or damaged my phone. Has anyone else had this issue? If so, is there a fix? Also since the update I have not be able to preview sounds when choosing ringtones. I still hear my sounds from alarms and what not.

Pretty sure it's the battery that vibrates. Maybe its vibrator broke?
Try a reset, rather then a reboot.
I tried pulling the battery a couple times and no go. Any other ideas?

Lol, I travel through time as well on occasion
Yes, mine will do it randomly - can't replicate it, but it does always seem like its in the morning (probably because it makes me think i'm running late!) A soft reset fixes, but it is frustrating... NEVER had a phone or electronic device do that to me in the past. I'm on stock ATT 1.6.
it happened when i was with 1.6, i hope it won't happen in 2.2, anyway it's going ahead rather being behind ...

I'm on 2.1 and it happens to me, not often but too much for my liking, restarting the device seems to sort everything out, hopefully this is fixed on froyo.
do you guys have your network visibility on or off?

Thank you my friend, i hope it's working if not i don't know what to do, i was thinkin to format the internal card and then resoft the phone, becase i tried clear cache and dalvik did also a dell reset but the problem persist, i even change the software to gingerbread then to [ROM] Streakin' 354v1.1 and the problem persist.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

First off, let me say I have searched for an answer prior to posting and asking this question. I am running Trigger v2.8.2 and my Vibrant has randomly started opening apps, switching screens and opening menus. I performed a wipe and reinstalled the ROM. I even went so far as to use ODIN to return to stock and install Trigger again, but I have not seen a change in the phones behavior.
I do not believe this has anything to do with the ROM, just not sure what is going on.
Anyone have an idea as to what the issue might be?
Just on the surface of it, it sounds like your touchscreen digitizer is about to go tits up...
that makes sense, the screen is very unresponsive in addition to the other random issues. It might be time to look for another phone.
Out of curiosity, what causes such an issue?
I wish I knew, however I do change ROM's frequently.
Tell tmo your phone won't turn on, they send you a refurb
I took your advice and called TMO. I should receive my replacement Vibrant by the 31st of March.
Thanks

Take it back to stock rooted and see if you still have errors. If your saying your having this problem on every ROM then it could just be your phone. I've never had a problem and I flash all kinds of ROMs.

setcpu cause freeze issue in somecases and also swiftkey may give you troubles that I saw from other posts. If your phone is a gsm, returning to stock maybe your best option at the moment anyway.
my phone is cdma sprint service
Mine is stock everything, and I get this freezing issue once in awhile. But its like only the screen responses freeze. Meaning if I try to scroll down on a web page, or sideways on the main screen...it won't do anything. But if i press the apps button, or other "buttons" on the screen... it senses it.
Well I took off setcpu and its been working fine so far going to give it a few hours and see what happens it just sucks I paid for setcpu

I am having this same issue. I have tried several different ROMs and kernels with the same result of the screen doing its own thing and the buttons becoming unresponsive at the bottom until I turn off the screen with the bottom on the top of the phone, which then allows the buttons at the bottom to be responsive again until the problem starts again.
I have also updated my firmware minus HBoot (2.08.651.2 Firmware Minus hBoot.zip) with the same results.
Any suggestions?
I too am having major problems. at first i thought it was just MIUI but no matter what rom i flash my buttons are unresponsive its hard to even unlock my phone like it just doesnt register that im touching it. Ive never had any problems like this it started yesterday while picking a song from a playlist. i would give more detailed information but i cannot get to my settings.
I'm having this issue. Random freezing. I have to pull the battery to reset. Very annoying. This is my third replacement for asurion (after I cracked my screen). I hate this.
I Was having Freeze Problems but Not Lately... If you try the AndroTECH Rom you Might have a little Better Luck...

After searching and trying to fix this for a few weeks, I'm finally reaching out for help, I really don't know what else to do.
My vibrate function seems to be completely dead.
I rooted the phone a while back when I first got it and everything was perfect on the first ROM I was using. I then flashed to a different ROM and lost haptic feedback but kept the other vibrate functionality (alarms, texts, etc.) Sorry I don't have specifics on the ROMs but I know the issues may be have been due to the i9100 porting stuff causing haptic issues
My vibrate functionality kind of slowly stopped working.. Sometimes when the headphones were in it would work fine, then I'd take them out it would stop.. and Vice versa.
It does SOUND like it's a hardware error.. But that seems a little silly since there have been multiple issues floating around w/ ROMs and haptic/vibrate problems.
Before I take any further action, anyone have any suggestions? I'm thinking to re-stock the phone entirely (unroot, stock kernel, stock rom) and see if that does it.. I'd rather not send it in to get replaced but I guess that would be an easy option if I can't fix it via software.
I googled vibration not working galaxy s2.
Found this but I didn't watch it as I am not on wifi.

Same happened to the last phone I had, the HTC Aria. I ended up just taking it to an AT&T store for replacement. I even tried going back to stock. Nothing worked on mine.

Yeah, already called att for a replacement and its on the way. Finally decided to give up after getting it back to 100% stock (kernel rom bl etc).
I literally tried everything. But in the end it makes sense that it is a hw problem since so many others have run into it too. Poop.
i watched the video you showed. i started to mess around with my settings while i inserted my headphones on. Somehow, everything is fixed but the vibration is not as strong as before.
Furthermore, my aux does not work with this phone sometimes. It would need to be connected a certain in order for it to work.
I probably dropped my phone while I was working out while i have my headphones on. The connector probably got messed up in the process.
I might need to send my phone in for a replacement. Since i'm not under warrenty, i might send my phone to a lab. I'm pretty sure they can do something about it.

The vibrator turned out to be a hardware issue for me as expected, fyi.
Hi,
I have a really strange problem, that I was unable to find among other people.
So, this is how it started:
I had some old official Froyo firmware with Voodoo lagfix and Voodoo Sound on it. One day I've noticed that it now takes like 5-10 seconds after you press a power button for screen to turn on. It started to annoy me and I decided to update to latest official firmware. After I did, the problem I mentioned disappeared. But somehow now I've got much bigger problem...
Anytime when i'm trying to make or accept a call phone freezes. Black screen and battery icon is all that is visible. However, call itself proceed and you can talk, but the only way to finish it is to remove battery (3G calls still works fine, btw)
I've tried all possible firmwares from oldest ones to ICS... tried all cleanup options from recover menu, stll nothing's changed.
I'll be very grateful if you guys can suggest me anything.
Thanks
Just a thought but make sure bluetooth is off, see if that helps
Read it on XDA a while ago.
Hope this helps

yep, it was water. not that I dropped it in there or something, but guys from service center told me that there was corroded track on circuit board. that's why proximity sensor wasn't working, so phone use to freeze each time OS tried to initialize the sensor
