Lately my vibration has gotten weaker, too weak to even feel in my pocket. Sometimes it cycles between strong and weak while vibrating, like the vibration motor is starting to malfunction. Is it time for the VIP service, or is it possible this could be software-related?
You running stock rom? Sometimes, its s/w problem...
Stock ROM, yes.
Of course, the day after I call the VIP service the phone starts to vibrate properly again. It still weakens sometimes but seems to work 95% of the time. I think I'll hold on to it for now, don't want the VIP service to give me a phone that reboots and crap..
Okay.. awkward. The vibrate function nearly died out again. But, I noticed something weird.. if I hold the phone in front of a lamp and make it vibrate, the vibration gets stronger and stronger until it's back to normal. Then when I turn off the lamp the vibration weakens again (slowly).
???
EDIT: Just now when I was holding down the lower volume button to make it vibrate, it wouldn't stop vibrating even when I let go of the button. It kept vibrating harder and harder and I almost thought it was gonna blow out, but I managed to make it stop by pressing the capacitive buttons (the other buttons did not respond). Wtf.

is teds tools or noled the only kinda sorta way around pressing the power button to turn the screen on while talking on your phone after it goes dark? i press my power button while on the phone during a call and it drops the call.
you should just have to pull the phone away from your face, or turn it flat while on a call to turn the screen on.
The captivate has a proximity sensor that has the screen turn on when it pulls away from your face. If the screen is not turning on, there could be a problem with the sensor.
how about when using a bluetooth headset or headphones? i just called myself and set the cell phone down until it went dark, picked it up and not even teds would pop back up so i pushed the power button and it cut me off again.

WTH is teds???
guess it was a bug with the cognition rom. i started getting process errors during phone calls when i dialed out. removed the rom, reset to factory and the problems are gone. i can now push the power button to light the screen up during a call without it cutting the call. but im still planning on taking it back to trade it for an atrix
Often i have to press to or maybe three times on some buttons before the phone recognise it as a press. Especially when i press the end call button.
It seems like the phone has some problems with touch sensitivty.
Anyone else have this problem?
Nope, mine seems good.
I do have the CM induced right edge of the screen issue though.
The problem with end call
Hi Fenrisulven_,
To me, the bug with the end call button is experienced because of the screen off feature on call... When you want to end call, you take it down from your ear, but it takes just a little more time for the touch interface to go on than the screen to switch on.
If anything the touch sensitivity seems maybe a little too high to me
I find the lock screen gets a little 'sticky' though.
Hi all,
This has happened to me twice now and I can't figure out how to fix this.
When you make a call you have your standard options on your screen such as mute, speaker, numbers etc. However after a few minutes the screen naturally turns off and there is no way to turn it back on again without having to press the Sleep button.
The reason why this is a problem is if you want to enable/disable mute, speakerphone or you need to input a number as in my case i was on hold for a long time to a call centre.
I tried to press the back button as well as home, but both did nothing and finally the volume buttons but that didn't activate the screen. The only button you can press is the Sleep button but that will end the call.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
When you are on the phone, the screen should turn off when the phone is near your ear, pretty much immediately, and come back on soon after you take it away. Unless you are using speaker phone of course.
Perhaps a problem with your proximity sensor?
The sleep button only ends the call if you set it too.

During a call, the screen randomly turns on and so the call gets notoriously disconnected because End Call button is getting pressed with a cheek or hair or whatever.
Is there some way to either fix it, or just disable it so the screen remains off during a call, unless Home button is pressed?
I tried several roms and it's always the same.
When I'm on a phone call the screen turns off. This messes me up if I have the mute button or speaker phone (accidentally) enabled. When the other party picks up or asks something I'm unable to get the screen back quick enough and they assume the line dropped. This is really annoying. I use the power button on the phone to hang up so pressing it wouldn't work. How can I fix this problem? The easiest way I can think of is if there's an option to just not have the screen turn off?
When this happens I try tapping on the screen but it usually just comes back momentarily before I can unmute.
