Insanely weak and inconsistent vibration. - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else have weak vibration? I'm barely getting any feedback from the nav bar and haptic has to be around 70ms to feel anything.

inconsistant? does the vibration stop working or does its power vary?

I only noticed varying vibrations when I'm typing on the keyboard. I noticed that slow typing would vibrate softly but it gradually increases in intensity when you increase your typing speed. I just came to the conclusion that the intensity of the haptic feedback is determined by the speed of your typing.

I've had issues where the vibrator stops working and to get it working again I have to lay the phone flat on it's back or shake the phone a bit but the frequency that this occurs is quite random, sometimes it does it all the time and sometimes not at all otherwise the vibration on this is really quite good, noticeably stronger than my One X but also slightly noisier.

It does both. Sometimes it feels like it's almost not vibrating at all, others it "surges" to be pretty noticeable.
TheOnlyIntruder seems to have the same issue.

Just bumping. This seems to still be going on. If I get an app and test vibration it works, but otherwise it is hit and miss on if I'll feel vibration with the nav bar or keyboard

Same thing for me! A little bit annoying.

I have the same problem with vibration stopping. Anybody found a solution yet?

no solution aside taking apart your phone and replacing the motor or sending to sony for free repair

Oh ok. Funny how the vibration works when I tap the back bottom. After a while, it'll dissappear again.

[Q] How to disable the lockscreen sound?

There is an extremely annoying sound/notification that plays sometimes when I unlock the lock screen. I've looked in the settings and can not seem to find anything to turn this off. Anyone point me in the right direction here?

Thanks for the reply but I've already checked that and it's unchecked in there. I've tried checking it then unchecking but no matter what the dam sound remains.
Mine hasn't ever made a sound unlocking it

Weird.. And when you restart your phone its still there? Could be a problem with the Sense app that can be fixed by restarting it

I think you have to manually set it to do that

Yep, I've tried turning it on and restarting the phone. Then turning it back off and restarting. Also did those steps and pulled the battery. Got frustrated and just reset the phone and still no change. It's weird too because if I simply flick to unlock the screen it doesn't play the sound as often. If I take my time and slide the unlock screen and slowly release the touch then it almost always makes the sound.
Guess I can just live with it till I can through another ROM on it. Probably just an isolated issue within my Sense.

Thanks for the try
*bump
Sorry to bump this up but it's seriously annoying and I'd rather not take the phone in for exchange.
Has anyone else had this issue or anything even remotely like it? Any other suggestions, etc? I appreciate any help offerings in advance.
The only help I can offer is disabling the Lockscreen all together. At least until we get full root and you can just flash a ROM or figure out what the problem is. Screen Mode Widget (free in the market) will do that

Has anyone figured this out? It's extremely annoying. It happens every time I unlock the phone.
The lock screen sound setting someone else mentioned in this thread is an additional little beep that gets added on if you have the sound option checked. This noise is completely different and plays regardless of whether or not you have the option checked, or whether or not you have a lockscreen pattern.

over six months since your OP and you still haven't fixed this?
have you rooted? tried different ROMs? If your going to bump this topic at least update everyone on what you've tried.
Have you tried to delete the lock sound sound from system/media?

LED Notification not working with NoLED?

It looks like the LED notification doesn't work with the NoLED app.
When NoLED is turned on and you get a new notification, it seems like the phone screen is on to flash that notification. Thus, the phone LED indicator doesn't work because it only works when the screen is off.
That's too bad because I'd love to have both notifications instead of having to choose one or the other.
Can anyone else confirm this is the case with their phone too?
FYI, not that it matters but I'm on the TMo SGS3.
Thanks.
Isn't noled used on phones WITHOUT led notifications?

my exact thoughts... I remember it being developed for the G2 if my memory serves me right... which is questionable right now.

Yes of course, but I'm thinking OP just thinks it'd be more convenient if both worked so you didn't miss any important texts/emails. On another note, if this did work it would dramatically decrease your battery life because the NOLED already holds a wakelock and stops the phone from deep sleeping.

Problem with hard key's.....

my hard key lights are not working in th3bill's cm10 4.1.2...somebody Pls help me

Have you tried flashing the ROM a second time, after a full wipe (if possible)? Sometimes these things just have the tiniest little glitches and nobody can figure out why they happen, yet a second flash miraculously fixes/solves whatever happened the first time out.
I've yet to see anyone mention any issues with the buttons - they're still considering "soft" buttons, however. As soon as I saw "hard keys" my thought was problems with the power/sleep, volume, or the camera button and not the capacitive touch ones under the display.
Just so you know...
Also, I note you say they're not lighting up - the real question then becomes are they still functional even though they're not lighting up?
Yes the soft buttons are functioning...but not lighting up....but few hours ago it was fine....but now it's not lighting up....maybe some setting issue....anybody know how to solve this in setting's mode?

R: NOLED
I use flashME, it work very nice and haven't battery drain

I just started using NoLed and as far as I can tell, it works really well. You can turn the brightness of the led notification down all the way and still see it pretty well. It'll save your battery. Also, an awesome setting: when your phone is in your pocket or face down, the notification won't turn on until you uncover the phone's sensor(take phone out of pocket). That right there is my selling point.
Hope that helps

Did you get it to work? NoLed isn't perfect. I noticed that if you get a text or call, the notification will pop up, but only once. It disappears if you wake your phone. Mess with the settings more, there are a lot of options. Make it so the notification pops up only when your phone is out of your pocket.

Is there anything better than NOLED . I just hate it when it lights up my room at night. Guess we are stuck.
If only these manufacturers left some of the basic stuff unchanged like the physical home button,notification and charging led and the navigation button placement order. There should be a standard for this kind of things from Google.

[Q] Lightflow constant LED?

Hello everyone,
Okey when I had my Nexus and used the Lightflow app, and a certain notification popped up in the notification bar (that notification was setup in Lightflow with a blinking LED) with screen on it would also blink.
On my note2, if my screen is on and I get that notification, it doesn't blink. I have no idea why.
Anybody familiar with Lightflow? Any ideas how I can make Lightflow blink with screen on?
Sent from my AK-55
Have you checked out Lightflows settings to make sure that you have that checked? Also that may only be a option in the paid version of Lightflow. Im not very familiar with it but it should under settings I would think.
Edit:
Just treated it for myself and it works perfectly on the free version. Click on the app in you app drawer, click settings, enable root mode, enable Samsung mode, then set your apps up.
I tested it on a low battery and it wouldn't quit flashing or give me a notification to turn it off like it does with email and other apps so I had to set it to go off after one minute for the low battery warning. I think the only reason it didn't have a pop ip was because the battery was already at 9%. The light stayed on the entire time the screen was on also.

No problem, its a bit annoying when it wouldnt show the notification for the battery so you may have that problem in the future or it may just be cause I tested it with a low battery.
