Random vibrate with Cognition? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I updated to Cognition's 2.2, and all is well except every few seconds it will start vibrating like I have a text or e-mail. I don't have any texts or e-mails and I have service, so I am not sure what the issue is. Anyone having the same sort of thing happening? Thanks in advance.
Also noticed that I can't get to silent mode. It will go to vibrate mode, but I remember in 2.1 there was Vibrate and Silent. Only vibrate in 2.2? Weird.
Edited again: And while in Settings, the back button doesn't work. Awesome. If anyone has a fix for this let me know, or else I'm probably going to master clear, go back to stock and try and start over ;\

Not sure if these are FC's.... anyone?

I can tell you that someone in the DEV thread on the COG 2.2 build did say that was due to FCs. But that was close to the end (as of a few min ago) and there was no resolution that I read.

I had this problem with One Click Lag fix and email FC's that made my phone constantly vibrate. Once I disabled OCLF, the problem went away.

ATT TILT Vibration Motor Wont Stop

Hello, I've recently set up ActiveSync for 15 minute intervals during peak time. I set "Vibrate" for New E-Mail Messages. Usually it vibrates for a few short bursts, but at least once per day the vibration motor freezes up and won't stop vibrating until I press the power button. The only other recent change to my settings was that I installed Bandswitch to keep connected to the Edge network and disconnect after 120 seconds. I don't know if this change is related to the vibration problem. Anybody have any suggestions?
if you have Magic Fingers installed, you might try uninstalling it
thanks for the advice, but I don't have Magic Fingers installed
hey. weird cause i used to have the same issue before, my phone whenever it received an email it would not stop vibrating until i removed the battery. lol weird i know. r u using the stock rom? ever since i changed rom's from stock i havent had that problem before.
try flashing ur rom to an upgraded att or htc rom, maybe it would solve ur issue as it did to me
best of luck
I have the exact same issue with incoming emails. For now I have turned off notification. Configuration is pretty generic.
This happened to me...
This happened to me once with the stock ROM. I have since upgraded to the leaked AT&T Tilt ROM and it hasn't happened since.
Any Hints?

I also have this problem, but its not with every e-mail. I receive between 10 and 20 e-mails a day and the continuous motor only happens about once every other day. I'm also on the stock ATT ROM. Anyone figure out what's going on with this?

I'm glad I'm not the only one.
this issue is a bummer
oh yeah this is becoming a real pita
Me too...
Using Blackberry connect on stock ROM on Tilt, new messages occassionally cause a constant vibration until I hit the power button.
Would love to know how to stop this,

In my experience I have found that this is caused by the device being forced to do something, i.e. check email, recieve email, before the device is fully "awake". The solution for me was acheived through the use of kaiser tweak. This also means there's a registry mod. for it as well, unfortunately I left my Kaiser at home today. If ylou change the device wake up to something more acceptable such as 15 seconds or 30 seconds instead of the 1 second default you may find this fixes your problem as it has for me!
If you did that, wouldn't you stand the chance of missing most of your phone calls while the phone is sleeping?

Delayed Notifications in Cooked ROMS..

Hello,
I've been having a problem with a few of the custom builds (Timor, AthineOS, CellPro Evo), and one problem I've noticed with each of the ones I've used is that when I get a text it doesn't notify until I wake the screen back up. Once I do that it vibrates and rings, but its up 30min after I got the text. Is this a known problem with a fix or am I better off sticking with a stock ROM?
Thank You
Funny you mention this, because I'm having the same problem. I thought it may have been a tweak I'd done and was going to do a hard reset today.
The only cab I've installed is Microsoft MyPhone. And had to edit the reg to allow the changing of the notification light timing in the Sounds & Notifications settings.
Do you know if this happens before you've made any changes to settings or installed any software on the phone? I don't recall having any problems like that myself with Timor installed, but I'm also not sure I received a text in that time. I haven't tried the other ROMs you listed.
It seemed to happen after I edited the reg settings.
Doesn't seem to be a constant occurance though. I happened to me 12 hours ago, even after a soft reset. But now I just sent a test message to myself, and all is ok... weird
Well I've regularly installed My Phone, Marketplace, Bing, Groovefish, and MP3 Trimmer, but I'd rather not delete and hard reset everything to do a test if someone knows a fix
I haven't had this issue...I am using the Valkrie Firestorm 5 and even when my phone is sleeping my phone vibrates as I get SMS messages and emails...
Well I have hard reset and held off installing using the My Phone. Everything seems well with recieving on time...but now the screen turns on everytime i get a message. It didn't used to do that and I find it quite annoying..I looked around my settings and Advanced Config and couldn't find anything.
It happens in the stock HTC rom too.
It normally doesn't happen if you come out of the text messages and go back to the home screen after you reply to someone. It's a really annoying bug
Me too...
I thought it was the result of all the hacking, tweaking and breaking I've been doing on this flash since I've been using it as a "scratch pad" but the problem you are all describing sounds identical.
I will also second the Home screen suggestion. Hit 'End' after you are done messing with the phone to go back to the Home screen. There is definitely a notification bug related to not alarming/vibrating when not on Home screen.
Though I have observed this issue, this does not completely explain my problems. Sometimes I don't actually even receive the SMS or MMS until the next day or after rebooting my phone! Most of the time it's fine though. I'm going to do a clean flash and see if that gets rid of that issue.
Same Here
I have run across the same problem with a number of the cooked ROMs. I never really noticed the problem with the stock ROM though. In my experience some of the cooked ROMs are having a problem handling the text messaging. I have over 3000 text msgs in my backup and as soon as I try to view an older text, the systems tend to lag and freeze up to the point that I need to soft-reset. Im using Athine right now and so far it has handled the text msging just fine without freeze or lag, but it also seems to have the same notification delay bug that the other ROMs have.

Yeah I'm familiar with that bug. But I go back to the home screen 99% of the time then shut the screen. I'll get a message and the LED will start blinking, but only when I turn the screen back on will it ring and vibrate.
Same problem here with the cell pro rom

I have the problem with almost all of the ROM. Does anyone know if it could be a result of not using the right radio?
I could be wrong.. but I don't think it has anything to do with the radio. There doesn't seem to be any problem is receiving the message from the carrier, it's more-so the OS not notifying. This has only happened to me since trying the new WM 6.5.5 builds with Sense 2.5. Previous to these builds I have never had any issues, and only used EnergyROM with a COM2 build, and Sense 2.1

Im not sure about all the technical stuff your talking about...I just know that on almost every ROM I flash, when the phone goes to sleep, they seem to not do anything. Its only when I wake it up do I receive text messages, notifications and the weather doesnt update on its own in the prescribed time its supposed to according to the settings I have selected.
The radio version may affect the quality of your reception. So if you have no reception then that will obviously delay texts getting through, and stop you being able to get to the weather servers. But I can't see why it should have anything to do with delayed notification of texts that are already on your phone.
I realise this might not help you much, but on my EnergyROM (see my signature for full details), my phone gets texts fine when it's asleep.
The weather isn't designed to get automatically updated when your phone is asleep though. There was a recent thread on how to change the registry to make it do so, if you haven't done that then your weather stuff may well be acting correctly.

WHY DONT YOU JUST USE A ENERGYROM????? I dont have any issues with those roms and i just updated to the .88 radio. no issues as of yet.

[Q] Phones vibration capability disappeared?

My phone stopped vibrating on notifications and incoming calls for some reason. So did my brothers at the same time. It'll still vibrates on screen unlock and haptic feedback. I have my e-mail set to vibrate only, sometime it'll vibrate, but more often than not, it wont. But never for notifications or calls. And yes i checked all the settings i could. (That i know of)
It first started when we switched to aosp mod from cm 6.1. So I tried flashing back to cm6.1(jaybob version) hoping it would fix, but it didn't. Yes, I did all the full wipes and everything. I really don't wanna RUU to see if its the phone or just the roms. I mean, it happened to my brothers phone at the same time, that can't just be coincidence.
Has anyone else seen this? or know what iI can try before I RUU?
i downloaded an app called sound manager. its free on the market. in there i clicked menu, vibrate settings. i enabled all the vibrate settings. tested it, then deleted the app. that reenabled my vibrations for messages and calls.

on aospMOD go into sound settings and for vibrate make sure you have it set to something other than never
Tried both of those suggestions and neither worked. Vibrate was set to always already.
I don't understand cause haptic feedback works but the actual vibrating will not.

[Q] dialer crashing

Hey guys
I just flashed to Cognition 3.04 and im loving it
after customizing my homescreen and stuff i got through the day happily (was worried i screwed up somewhere)
everything was good but today my dialer stopped working
i dont exactly remember when it started, but what happens is the call goes through, then my phone vibrates a few times and the dialer closes
afterwards, i get the popup saying Auto-update of Time and Date
I have no problems receiving calls, and my calls do go through (dialed to other people but it seems like the dialer closes after a few seconds)
I`ve noticed that 3g turns off as well :S
Is there an app I can use to figure out whats causing the crashes + any suggestions or solutions?
thanks in advance for any help
nevermind, sorry D: fixed it by turning off call status tones

[Q] Startup beeping ?

Just after I power on my phone it makes a loud, annoying noise like: "beep-beep beep-beep beep-beep beep-beep"
It started when I set a custom ringtone and notification sound.
The only cause I can think of is that maybe the phone is trying to play my custom sounds files before they have been scanned by the media scanner, which is resulting in a system notification sound being played instead.
Is that likely to be the case?
My custom sounds are stored in: /mnt/sdcard/media/audio/notifications and /mnt/sdcard/media/audio/ringtones
Thanks.
Delete or move your custom sounds to test your theory .
No mention of firmware .
jje
Sorry, I was sort of seeing if anyone had a similar problem first. Anyway:
Firmware: 2.2.1
Baseband: I9000XXJPY
Build: FROYO.XXJPY
(Not rooted)
I think I am meant to get Gingerbread any day now, and I plan to root after that - so maybe one of those will fix it.

What I noticed on mine is this only happens when there is a voice mail left when phone was off. I get this annoying, almost non-stop beeping when the phone boots up, and about the only way to stop it is too check notifications asap. I have no tone that sounds like this beeping, and have no clue why it does this on boot. I thought it was stock ROM issues, but I have flashed auxora and trigger 3.2, and get the same annoying beeping. It is only when there is a voice mail in the notifications, when booting up phone.
Thanks jman!
I had the same problem, hours of searching 'android boot alarm' and endless variations on google found nothing on this. I googled 'android beeping at boot', found this thread and you were 100% correct. I cleared my voicemail and no more beeps! Seems like an odd bug, anyone know a way to prevent this from happening any further? I was minutes away from a hard reset before I found your advice. Thanks!
Same here on I9000B Froyo 2.2 JPA
I hate this beep. Its so loud.
