PLEASE HELP! No vibration on soft buttons anymore! - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Yesterday when I woke up my soft buttons weren't vibrating anymore when I pressed them. At the time my config was the following:
· [email protected]
· Wildmonk's Hybrid AVS kernel <- Just flashed it
I've tried with a few other ROMs (wiping everything) and still not working. I'm freaked out.
Any ideas? I'll really apreciate absolutely any kind of help.
Thanks in advance!

is haptic feedback turned on in settings?

Indeed it is.
Vibration "works" but it's soooo soft it's very hard to even notice. There's not much of a difference between having haptic feedback on or off.
"General vibration", as in calls or whatever game, works fine, so it's not a problem on the vibrator thingy. Buttons work but vibration when pressed is just too soft (as I just said, it's hard to notice). What on earth has happened?
Again thanks for any help. I'm kind of desperate.

I just did a nandroid restore to Eclair and the same thing happens. I'm starting to think it might be hardware and I'm very freaked out...

Okay, so I've tried some other stuff and noticed the same thing happens when I long press the home screen to get the widgets/backgrounds/folders menu.
I'm trying to post everything I find out regarding the issue so others find it easyer to help me.
Thanks once again...

Hard reset didn't help either... Is something broken? It stopped working all of a sudden. No falls.
Does it make any sense that vibration in calls works but not that of the buttons? It feels like it needs more power when sending the impulse to the vibrator for 'soft' vibration. Is there a way to tweak this?
Thanks for your interest...

Not working with stock rom either... Is someone willing to help?
Thanks again.

Sorry no solution, but i have the same problem. It started after update with a Jairomeo theme on cyanogenmod.
EDIT: After restoring the Backup before Jairomeo theme update everything works again.

Vibrate and screen problem

Before I start I will say yes I did searched for possible solution but no luck!
I have noticed that vibration in my phone is pretty weak lately. I have original rom and radio.
I also noticed that after not using my phone for a few hours, when I tried to turn it on, the phone will not turn on. the led is blinking green but no way to turn the screen on. I have tried all buttons and nothing seam to work until I do a soft reset!! This is the second time in a week and never happened before.
Any thoughts?
ROM 1.56.405..5
Radio 1.27.12.11
I have installed a few new programs. I am wondering if this is the cause of the vib to decrease.
here is the list of the programs that I added
S2U2
Kaiser tweak
FTouchSL
spb menu
touch commander
tweaks 2k2
As far as I can tell I haven't change any vib settings with the tweak.
Any advice as to how I can increase strength of the vib again
I have soft reset a few times without any luck.
Note- I am not looking for longer vib
Thanks in advance

My buttons don't want to be touched...

Ok, this might be the first real problem I've had with my tilt, in a sense that I have no freakin clue what happened or how to fix it. The front buttons on the tilt as well as my keyboard decided they wanted to stop working and I have no clue how to bring them back... let me start from the beginning.
I installed m2d about 2 weeks ago, its kind of laggy but I'm still impressed with the overall UI as it compliments the tilt. Some bugs started popping up here and there but through the forum I was able to make it run relatively smoothly. Last night my tilt wouldn't connect to my computer, the usb contacts might have gone bad or something, it only works when I put pressure on the cable to keep the contacts together. Than today my screen would wake up for no reason, with no programs or application running in the front or background of the device. It was annoying to say the least. Than I got my first text of the day and went to respond using the actual keyboard, no dice. No response from the keyboard. So as Im typing using the stylus I tried to delete something, and the backspace button on the touch keypad isn't working, so more problems. I want to try and hard reset the device to see if that fixes the problem, but since I can't use the hard buttons on the front of the device I can't hard reset (the scroll wheel, ptt, and ok buttons aren't working either) Is this anything anyone has ever heard of? My tilt is kind of battered after a year of use, but nothing significant has happened within the last month to make me think that something inside came loose, especially since this just started today and it was just sitting on my table all night. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks in advance.
might be "m2d" not compatible ... hair wired ..
I wonder ..whether we can install window CE from pc to h/p through usb link ...
"Last night my tilt wouldn't connect to my computer, the usb contacts might have gone bad or something, it only works when I put pressure on the cable to keep the contacts"
r u using original usb cable ..b'cos now a day I saw many only using normal "small" usb cable head which easily spoil the connector at phone ... too loose for that sharp..

@kaiserII...your usb is whack, haha. that **** made me laugh.
having same exact issue
ya it happened to me sunday night, having exact same problem. keyboard doesnt work, and my front buttons dont work exept for the the center button which ends up opening the start menu (wrong command). Im over my 1 year warrenty and not sure what to do. Had to buy a cheap 40 dollar nokia for the time being, please help if someone can. Oh and I did a hard reset, and it didnt fix anything. Booted android with it and 1 out of 5 times the buttons came back, this is really weird/vexing.

Exactly the same thing has happened to me!! Coming on randomly, draining the battery really quickly and the same keys doing the same things as yours i.e. nothing or Start menu. The backspace and space don't work on the on-screen keyboard either. Is it the end of the road or has anyone the slightest idea what the hell to do!?!?!?
Same issue but slightly different
2 days ago I started hearing a noise from my phone that was not something I normally hear. After checking my phone I found out it was the voice recorder program opening up on its own. It started repeatedly doing this and recording automatically. I had to hold down the close option (X) and before it would stop. AFter a reset and when the phone wakes up it always does this now. Along with all these whacky problems my hard buttons stopped working. My scroll wheel and D-pad sometimes work and only the up, down, left and right arrows work on the keyboard. Camera button seems to work sometimes also. All others have stopped responding. Except for holding the power key. I just reflashed my phone to latest phoenix ROM and problem is the same. Is this it for the phone or is there a fix.
Anyone??? Please!!
Try this free fix
I had the same problem as the original poster. My fix was to download AE Button Plus trial and use it to reset my keys to their original setting. I did not have to do the keyboard, just the external keys. Now my tilt works like it used to.
This fixed the problem when clear storage and reloading roms did not.
It doesn't hurt to try since the trial is free.
Good Luck,
Will
same here... help pls...
any one yet has found a solution for this issue??? 2days ago my Kaiser suddenly started with same problems, buttons dont work and the recorder goes on, any one yet found a way to fix it??? thanks...
I have no idea if this will actually help anyone but I installed japanese input on my kaiser once and during the process a registry got edited that stopped my hardware keyboard and the hardware keys (front keys) from working and the fix was to correct the value:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010411]
edit the 0010411 value to "00000409"
again I have no idea if this will help but it wouldnt hurt to check to see if the registry somehow got changed. Goodluck and I hope you guys figure it out.
didnt work...

I have the same issue
This is intresting, I just posted on this, as I am having the same issue, which of course just started a few days ago. I have the updated UI as well but I installed it as well.
Any idea how to fix it??
keyboard fix "edfc" problem
yes , kaiser tweak slide wake disabled ...it OK
Greetings from Olsztyn Poland
Unfortunately, the problem returned it was only a temporary improvement, sorry
For my tytn2 after rom upgrade, the front buttons do not respond except the central one. the side buttons are responding under the win only but in the bootloader screen they don't respond. and I cannot make a hard reset.
I did a hard reset through the setting menu but still the problem has not been solved. Adding on that the keyboard doesn't work except the arrow keys.
Do anyone can figure a solution for that. except the hardware problem bec I am out of warranty.
Did anyone was able to solve the problem fully?
oo wow, i have the same problem. hope theres a fix
adding to that the the bluetooth is turnino on by itself even if I switched it off and the device by itself after time of switching it off it refuse to start again unless I did a soft reset.
I tried all the avilabe suggestion but nothing worked.
Hiya
This seems to be a problem with the TyTn II - there are several threads in this forum about it, none of which have any working solutions that I ever found...
I spent ages trying different ROMS, Radios and pressing of buttons and haven't found a solution - other than to disown the TyTn II and get another phone! I did pick it up again the other day and it is still refusing to have working buttons or keyboard (as reported by others, only the central buttons seems to work all the time as a Start Menu button).
I did manage to stop it eating battery at a ridiculous rate by turning it to specific radio settings rather than letting it find its own GPRS/ 3G and phone band. I think it was in this thread
I was considering sending my TynTn II to HTC, but I'm not sure it's going to be worth the postage and their service fees as I've already replaced it with a Touch Pro 2. Then again if we ALL sent them in, they might acknowledge some sort of problem with this model.

Notification Sounds Stopped Working

Hi All,
I've searched all over...can't seem to find anything. So, I'm turning to you guys, the community, for some help.
Up until 2 days ago, all my notification sounds worked. Email, SMS, phone calls - all came in, and it made a nice loud noise to alert me to the incoming event. All of a sudden, they just stopped.
I still get sound. Taps and things still generate a sound. However, whenever an email, sms or phone call comes through, there is no sound or vibration at all. I haven't installed anything new. Nothing.
I'm using the AT&T Tilt WM6.1 ROM v3.57.502.2 WWE.
Any help or further inquiry to help me resolve this problem without a hard reset would be GREATLY appreciated.
Thank you,
Q
Tap the speaker icon on the title bar and make sure the system volume isn't all the way off.
I guess I forgot to make that part clear...the volume is up on both speaker options.

Please help! No vibration!

Hi, so I was just texting with my phone using switkey and the vibration suddenly stopped. No vibration, so I thought it was a normal issue and the vibration would come back after a reboot. The same thing happened to me once, and it was fixed through that. But this time, nothing...It doesn't even vibrate when it boots, recovery mode, nothing. I'm running on Insert Coin and I have had no problem. And I haven't dropped the phone dangerously, I even have an otterbox to ensure its safety. But why did it stop vibrating?Is it a hardware issue? A software issue? Please help. I need the phone fixed by tomorrow, this is really important. I'm selling it to a friend and I need it fixed fast. Please help me.

If it does not vibrate on boot, it's a hardware fault, sorry.
I had the same, it was repaired in warranty.
If u still have warranty, use it.
Thanks guys, even though I had the vibration issue I still managed to sell it for a good price. I bought the phone off Craigslist so no warranty, and it was rooted so yeah. Thanks anyways guys. I appreciate the help. And especially the first dude who replied. That test mode is gonna prove really useful when buying a phone off Craigslist.

Home & back button stopped working

I'm running SLICK s422 ROW on a 2 1/2 week old K3 Note & suddenly my home & back buttons have stopped working. Strangely the menu button still works fine. I'm having to use on screen software buttons to navigate. Has anyone else here had this problem, or a possible fix? I've seen a few reports on the internet of others with exactly the same fault.
I had the handset shipped to the UK from China, so don't suppose I'll be covered by any kind of warranty.
I've tried rebooting into recovery mode & don't feel any haptic feedback when I press them either, so I don't think it's the ROM.
The buttons have started working again!? I pulled the battery to stick a 2nd sim card in & they sprung to life. I did try pulling the battery out before, without success. I'm not complaining, but it is very strange.
hi I have the same problem since this morning. Only left side button work. But when the screen is locked i can start camera and move padlock on screen so buttons are working. After screen unlock they stop to work. Any solution please. Reset and pulling out battery doesn't work.

Hi, I run in trouble with the same. Only menu button works, I got this phone from China as k50-t3s and played around with k50-t5 and Indian Rom. Is there any solution meanwhile

did you modified a factory t3s and then it stopped working?
So there may be an issue with using different chargers with this phone that causes this problem. I only experience this after I've used one my other chargers to charge the phone
FIX?
Note this is just a temporary fix. Like Sandancer75 mentioned, simply remove the battery from the phone for a few seconds and try again. The response on presses after requires a little more effort but atleast it got the buttons working again
Hi. Im a newb. Is there anyone who kind enough to tell me how to update and root my lenovo k3 note k50 t3s? I tried to read the comments but i got lost. :'D please help me.

Home and back buttons​ not working
Hey fellas, my device started​ showing the same problem. Does anyone know how to fix it? Thanks in advance! Peace
Same problem
Does changing the ROM help?
Hey kdobrev,
Thanks for your reply,
I've tried 3 different roms but no success.
Regards
I've got the same problem, changed the bootlogger, the ROM... you name it but no use. Now I've just replaced a cracked screen and now the navigation keys are working again. I wouldn't advise anyone to change the screen if they haven't some experience - The K3-Note screen is a bit of a bugger to replace.
That's a bummer, but thanks for the reply!:good:
Regards
Hi
