hi people,
i have a big problem,the phone stopped vibrating when i recieve a call and when i play teeter.It's very strange,battery is working and the the sound is ok.I performed a full hard reset but nothing to do.My rom version is the ultimate official firmware 1.37.408.3 ita.
I hope someone can help me here.Thanks
Mine had same problem. I did soft reset, hard reset but nothing worked. Strange thing that it vibrated some times on call but not working in Teeter at all. I took it to service center and they told its faulty. I have returned it now. I suggest you to go to service centre.
Regards.
Hi,
strangely after some days,the phone and the game are vibrating normally now.
Touch Pro not vibrating all of a sudden
Came up with this topic after doing a search and despite my phone being a pro and not a Diamond I am asking this in this thread as the 2 phones are basically the same and well vibrating is a universal thing with phones these days compared to the 80's early 90's when if a phone did vibrate it was a luxury.
My touch Pro has all of a sudden stopped vibrating and after doing a hard reset nothing has changed
The Author of this thread had a problem to me which sounds the same and he mentioned after a couple of days it started working again. I hope the same happens to me but will wait a couple of days to see if it does before taking it to the service centre.
Fabrik78 is your phone still vibrating 5 months down the line?
I can hear nothing shaking inside so to me it doesnt sound like the motor has come loose but still got me pauzzled.
Has anyone else had the same problem and has it rectified itself like Fabrik78's phone and if yes does anyone have any idea why it has done it and how long should I wait before I get it checked. My phone is about 3 months old.
Cheers
John from downunder
Does it vibrate when you turn on the phone?
Cause as soon as it boots it gives a little test vibrate.
Greets.
No, it doesn't, thats why I was checking to see if Fabrik78's is still working. Going by his description its the same as mine. He didn't say anything about the starting up but I would gather saying no vibrating would include the starting up test vibrate.
I'm having a similar problem with my 6 week old Touch Pro. It never vibrates anymore, not even on startup. It just stopped working a few days ago
Mine stopped vibrating a while back and I had just figured it was the rom I was playing with (around the same time frame) but it finally started bothering me so I reverted back to the shipped rom, hard reset messed around with settings and still no vibrations, not even at boot. Finally called spring yesterday morning for a replacement I'm assuming it's a known issue as the rep was rather fast to send a replacement without even the mention of bringing it to a store to be checked out but that could just be a cool rep.
This has kind of happened to me, I think.
It was 5am the other day and I was recieveing texts but had it on vibrate but could feel it. Then again, it could have been me really tired.
I'll post back if I notice it again.
It does work with Tweeter though, or whatever the games called
htc touch pro stopped vibrating
so i've had my pro for about five months now and it just started to not vibrate.
it doesnt vibrate when i receive messages, calls, startup or on teeter.
i dont know if i should wait a while or talk to a sprint rep.
please give me feedback

Ok, so after loading "RUU_Kaiser_ATT_WWE_1.60.502.3_22.45.88._07_1.27.14.09_Ship.exe" for a couple days, tweaking a few things and adding a few software packages...
Yesterday, after leaving my desk for a while with the phone on the desk and unplugged after recent sync with desktop....
I come back and find my Tilt is really hot and totally dead!
Later in the day, last night and today...I noticed that on some email notifications, the vibrate latches in and won't stop until I wake up the screen!
Anyone else seen this? Need to decide whether to restore to factory condition, retest etc...or send back as defective.
Cheers and THANKS!
this has happened to me several times, I finally went off and set email alerts off which is annoying. This also happened on my other HTC phone 8125
This has happened a couple of times for me too on the totally stock ATT ROM.
Annoying but, since it's always with me, it's never gotten worse than "annoying".
Same problem here, since I don't want to disable the vibrating alert I just send a mail to HTC asking for a solution.
Hope they'll anwser.
I'll keep you posted.
Percentages...
Hmm, with these numbers (already)...it is difficult to determine if this is a quality control issue with a small percentage failure. Need some more replies and a comment from HTC!
I'm already inclined to tell AT&T to send me another one, especially since this issue has been experienced with the ship ROM, and it is less than 2-weeks old.
Also original rom and I had the problem from day one.
It's night over here in Belgium, but I won't wait from an answer from HTC. First thing tomorrow I'll call the shop where I've got it.
I've had this a couple of times on my UK Vario 3. It actually happened today.
The problem seems to span different roms and batches.
pjam
I've also have this problem so like most people I disabled the vibrate notification which isn't a fix but better than having it none stop vibrate. Hope they fix this for the Vario III as well as Kaiser
solution from a HTC dealer
I just called the shop where I purchased mine, and first thing the guy asks, "do you really need the vibrating warning? can't you just use a sound alert or something?"
After explaining that I really want it to work as mentioned, he went to ask.
When he came back he tried to convince me that it's normal with WM6. It's a feature. When asked wheter it's normal it sometimes works "correctly" en sometimes it keeps vibrating, he answered it's strange but normal.
Explaining that the battery gets really hot and so didn't help either. He was convinced it's normal. But he gave me a number of HTC. Not a Belgian nr so I'll first wait for an anwer via email till this afternoon.
Anwser from HTC
I just called to HTC Europe, and the woman on the phone said "oh that's not good".
But a solution? I'll have to send it in for repair.
Still waiting for an answer on my email I send to HTC. And if I'll send it in for repair I'll first call again for a better anwser than "that's not good".
But sorry no real solution yet!
seems like this is getting worse and worse for us. I am experiencing the same issue. I have had the phone for about a 3 weeks now. The first week everything was fine. Then this sporadic occurance of the steady vibrate with new text and email messages. It seems like the first 2 vibrating pulses go through fine but it gets hung up on the last one. Full stock att ship rom here as well.
I'll get after AT&T for a replacement tomorrow (GMT -5) and post their response.
Well, not much to report except AT&T gave no fuss and new Tilt is "in the mail". I would suggest even those who are outside the "return for new one" window, get after HTC and/or their provider to replace any units with this "defect"...
Maybe threaten class action... Good luck to all.
I called back to HTC support, explained the problem again. Also said that I'm not the only one but they are not aware of the problem. I'll have to send it in for repair.
So I called the repaircenter, and it would take 2 or 3 weeks.
Don't want to send him in for so long, so for now I'll try to live with it. Still hoping for a bugfix one day.

did u walk into an att store? or make a phone call to customer support? In either case how did you go about proving this was infact an issue?
I called AT&T premier phone support from a shopping mall while waiting for my better half to shop...it took about 1 minute to explain the issue.
Basically, I told them my phone needed to be replaced because it was defective and explained the manifestation (sometimes when email alerts are set to vibrate, the vibration does not stop and if I let it keep going, it kills the battery fast and overheats the unit).
I further explained that I researched the problem online and that is appears a small percentage of users are affected by the issue so that it is likely a manufaturing QA issue.
I also suggested that they send me a new unit versus a refurbished one, at least the first time around. They responded, "Oh, of course we will be sending you a new unit".
It took another two or three minutes on hold for the order to be setup, and I had an email in my Tilt inbox before we disconnected.
Overall the experience was excellent.
Same problem here. Mine is a Hong Kong unit that is HTC branded. Using it here in Canada with Rogers.
Note: I have installed Blackberry Connect 4 as well for connection to my corporate email.
If an message comes in, it will sit there and vibrate like mad until I wake it up. For now, I've disabled vibrate.

sounds very much like the typical idiot you find in such places
is it just email notifications that are affected, or does it happen on all types of notification, ie sms message?
Good question...
Right now I'm running Dutty's Tilt Beta 2 w/ touch and all is good actually. It turns out that the phone ring uses only one vibration (long) and is followed by sound, where as my email uses 3 short vibrations only.
I'm more inclined to reach and answer the phone, than I am to reach to read an email, plus the email gets 3 chances to improperly latch the vibrate.
So, I don't know if it really is only email, or if email manifests itself as the culprit only because it happens more often.
Others may be able to confirm this.
I will say though, I'v had Dutty's running for 24 hours, and although the weekend email volume is much lower for me, I would have expected it to happen again by now.
The whole thing is crazy, sometimes it bothers the hell out of me, and other days it just gets forgotten or I assume it is a glitch.
All in all, I like the phone enough to keep it in the end, even with this problem. However, I still think the numbers on this forum are low enough that I have a decent chance of not experiencing this "bug" with my new phone when it arrives.
I've only had my Diamond for about 10 days, and even though wifi was working fine at the beginning, i realised yesterday that it wouldn't turn on. Only a hanging scroller for a few seconds and Wifi would stay off no matter what I did, even hard reset. A problem that others have too as I read in other threads.
So, I called Orange a few hours ago (Saturday evening), explained the problem, and I'm getting a replacement tomorrow morning (Sunday!!!). If it actually happens, i have to give a BIG thumbs up to Orange for not busting my nerves to prove there's a fault with the device.
Hope it's not a frequent problem with the Diamond...
Had my Touch Diamond for a few weeks now, but my love for it is dwindling into hatred fast
First of all, I've been having a lot of alignment problems with the touch screen. It'll be phone for a short while, then it will go skewiff, leaving me frustartingly trying to navigate to the Screen/Align setting for an umpteenth time.
Anyway, over the last couple of day a more serious problem has occured. My friend called me a couple of times yesterday and I could not hear him and he could not her me. I left it as maybe somekind of tempory network problem, however today my partner and a couple of other people have called me and the same is happening there. I try to call back, but no luck.
Also, I was late for work today... because I didn't hear my alarm! Yes, it seems all sound ceases to function on my 3 week old Touch Diamond
Now I'm left worrying that I have to call Orange, let them investigate and see if they replace it. To be honest, I'd rather have a different model completely. Am I able to get a different phone?
Anyone had this problem?
Thanks for reading.
It now happened for the third time: The phone is up and running but when an incoming call is received it does not ring at all and the microphone + speaker is also not working (muted) - basically there is no audio at all though you can take and end the call.
Once the phone is in this state alarms and sound notifications are no longer working as well, after a soft reset everything was fine again.
I wonder if I'm the only user who has experienced this kind of issue.

well foo, i got it to, but i had the same problem wuth my diamond as well, it went away with tge officual rom update, so ill guess well have to wait foor the rom upgrade this time to.
Ah okay - at least I'm not alone with this issue, good to know.
It seems this problem is not a common problem, as I do not read any other posts regarding this issue in the Xperia section. Though I found a thread in the Diamond section that exactly describes my problem.
As HTC stated the problem is related to a hardware issue, I returned mine now. I'm lucky that Amazon.de just returned me the money (completely) so I can buy another one in the next days.
It seems I am having this problem with my X1i. I am in the US and the Sony Ericsson support centre in the UK is telling me that I would have to pay for shipping to and from the UK Sony Repair centre.
The following web page suggests I am eligible for international support and repairs, but I called the US Sony Ericsson line and they told me that since the X1 was not released here yet, that I would not be able to receive support in the US for the X1 (either for getting it repaired or a replacement unit).
http://www.sonyericsson.com/cws/sup...endedserviceoffertailoredforx1/x1?cc=gb&lc=en
I would send it back to superetrader.co.uk and get a replacement that way, but they do not have any in stock and given delays in shipments in the UK I am hesitant to send it back and wait for new stock.
I am going to try going into a Sony Style store sometime this week and show them my "Travelers service" card and see if they can get it fixed here. Does anyone have any other suggestions I might try?
bluetooth problem with carkit and audio off
I folks,
i do also have the same problem. I have a SE BT car kit HCB 300 and it is just annoying, that it does not work proper. Sometimes BT works, sometimes not, sometimes i have to restart the phone, sometimes ... just annoying.
A lot of times Xperia recognizes the 300, then i am calling somebody, phone is giving signal to the 300, but after a few seconds, audio is off again.
After that audio is not working anymore.
Could it be, that your problems are also caused by the known BT problem?
Ingo
Exactly same problem
Exactly the same problem as foo.
If you remove and replace battery, sometime problem is solve, sometime no.
Soft reset solve the problem.
I made hardware reset + flash xperia but no solution.
I returned mine and bought a new one that does not have this issue. It really seems to be a hardware issue.

It could be, although I have not paired with a BT headset since buying it, and in addition I have hard reset the phone and put it in airplane mode (no RF at all) and the audio still manages to completely die where only a Soft Reset will restore the sound (as noted by x1inside).
Depending on the amount of time I leave the phone sometimes the phone after playing some music for 5 seconds will stutter and restore sound. This is similar to the description in the Touch Diamond thread that foo linked. Also when this stutter sound restores, as noted in that thread, the reception indicator in the system tray indicates that the signal is temporarily lost and then restored.

Thanks for letting us know, good to have this confirmed so when I visit the store or send it to Sony Ericsson repair centre, I can refer them to this thread.
well i also have the same problem with my x1.
reseting it dosent work, flashing it with new rom dosent work.
But i cant understand how the problem would be in the hardware, when you reset it it starts working! i mean if it was a hardware problem the sound should be of all the time?
Is there ant possibility if this is a software problem, i mean WindowsMobile 6.1, because my dad complaining the same behavior yesterday, and his device is Samsung Omnia.
Do all WM6.1 effected?
I got the X1a in the US. No problem here. When there is an incoming call and I was on the phone then it will beep to let me know if I want to answer or inorge. If I answer then it will put other call on hold till finish talking then connect me back to the first caller.
My x1 is also affected by this audio problem. If I restart my phone sound output works for some minutes and turns automatically off as the other users reported.
Same problem here just got an X1 and the sound works perfect after leaving it a short while the sound completely stops working no music, notifications or anything. By the sounds of it I think I will send mine back to O2 and get a replacement, although it does seem more like some sort of software fault than hardware to me, like the previous post why would it be corrected by a soft reset every time. If anyone has any suggestions before I send this thing back I will be happy to try them.
I returned my x1 and after 5 weeks of "repairing" I got called and they said it cannot be repaired and I got a brand new phone.
I had that exact same problem. I'd leave my phone alone for a while and then when I came back to it a few hours later, it would have no audio at all. I could make a call, the other person could hear me but I couldn't hear them and it wouldn't audibly alert me to anything...
I couldn't pin it down to any particular circumstances but it was always resolvable with a soft-reset. A hard-reset didn't cure the issue either. I just sent it back in the end. My current one is fine although I have now upgraded the ROM to the latest one.
I do have one outstanding issue though and that's that when sending a text, it sends immediately, flashes up the bubble saying msg sent, but the vibrate from sending the message will come about 10 minutes after or it'll do it when I turn the screen back on. It's not a biggie but it's a bit weird.
scarey
I have the same prob, but its strange that when pushing the MS-Voice-Controll button the beep comes and everything works perfekt again.
So I don´t need to soft oder hard reset, but it drives me crazy not knowing whether my alarms or notifications do work or not. BUT: I cant believe its a hardware problem.
same problem...
With 3-4 custom rom...
I'm trying with orginal ROM...
Any news?
Hi Guys
I appear to have developed a major fault with my S730!
My phone was ringing yesterday and i tried to pick the call up but when i pressed the green answer button nothing happened... I then went to try and get into my phone when i use the pad in the middle it trys to dial numbers, that is 5 and *! None of the keys work, even the slide out keyboard!
I wouldn't care but i just got the phone off ebay 2 days ago and it was working fine! I flashed it upto wm 6.1 with no problems and i was just getting used to the phone when this happens!
I've tried flashing it with various roms, i.e official one from the htc website and the original one from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=383617
but still the same problem, when i turn the phone on, just after everythings loaded in a couple of keytones sound out like its entering a number but nothing happens on screen
Could the telephone call i picked up have caused this? It was an uknown caller... but i'm not sure if it was working before the call..
Is this something anyone can help with or am i going to have to take it to a repair shop? I don't want to spend anymore money on this if i can help it!
Many Thanks

hi
this happned to me as well. Number keys just died and was left with one or two keys working. A short while after this the screen went white and stayed that way no matter what i did. Dont have any advise sorry. Iv sent my phone back.
Sent my phone back after speaking to HTC. Changed motherboard and some cable etc. Also changed the cracked casing. All ok now, looks new.
