Yeah that's a bug in the leaked version of ICS and roms based on that. You can go ahead to play store (android market) and install this app - volume ace - https://play.google.com/store/apps/...xLDEsIml0LmJyYWluY3Jhc2gudm9sdW1lYWNlZnJlZSJd
And in its profile just put the phone in ringing and vibration mode. Now the phone will ring and vibrate simultaneously!!
Hit thanks if it helped!

It didn't help,
the program only let's you control the audio power,
the only thing about vibration the program has is the option to put the phone on silent&vibration mode.
thanks anyway..

It works. Check the attached screenshot. Enable the options highlighted and just restart the phone and restart the volume ace and see if the options you selected are still showing as selected (doesn't get revert to default). Now whenever a call comes the phone will ring and vibrate

It helped !
where do I hit thanks? I cant find it..

Oh..
It worked.. You win 1 thanks and 4 internets!!!

Glad it worked for you both !!
Enjoy your Note
Cheers!!

Still no vibration
Hi,
your solution did not work for me. Can anyone help me, I miss about half of my calls because of this..
I am running on Rocketrom with Hydracore kernel.
Thanks

have you tried a different kernel?

Still not working

Yes, I have, I was on Abyss kernel before switching to Hydracore. I did not work back then either.
I got results when doing:
echo 1000 > /sys/.../vibrator/enable
Otherwise, nothing.
Can anyone upload the symlinker function, ortell me where to get it ? If I can find out what is being called py apps when trying to vibrate, I may symlink it to beforementioned /sys/.../vibrator/enable.
Regards from Switzerland

vibration dont work
I just install this ROM : Ultimate_N7000_LSC_JB_4.1.2_v5.1 , and vibration dont work at all.
Any suggestion ????

[Q] Incoming Ringtone not working, Froyo 2.2.1 XXJPU

I just flashed the ROM to stock XXJPU 2.2.1..
Everything's outstanding except the incoming call ringtone and vibration..
Whenever someone calls me up, the ringtone sounds for some miliseconds.. and then it's just gone... no vibration in silent mode.. no ringtone in general mode..
I never faced this problem before but facing this after I flashed to XXJPU..
Any solution?
Very strange, I haven't had this happen at all and I'm using JPU.
Ahh..
The message notification is working like a charm but the problem is with incoming calls only :S
Checked all the volumes, ringtones, nothing works. Even the vibration mode is not working.. Phone remains silent while someone calls me up.
wow...
maybe u have the bad firmware... so where can u download this firmware.... any links? and do i need the password on the zip file???
Both my girlfriend and myself have a similar problem, oddly enough we have different firmware and models. Call ringtones and message alerts rarely work. E-mail notifications and such are fine. I've got an 16 GB Australian GT-I9000 (Optus) running JPU. However my girlfriend has a 8 GB GT-I9000 (International) running the latest official (Kies) firmware, JPO.
We're both with different telecomm providers so I don't think it's a network related issue. I'm a little surprised to find that so few other people have the same problem. I'm a bit busy of late but I'll see what I can find out. If anyone else has any information please don't hesitate to share it.
I have exactly the same problem, since I upgraded to JPU. With my previous upgrades, I had no problem so it seems to be a JPU's bug. But, why only some of us are concerned ?
What could I do ? Any ideas ??

I just "fixed" mine somehow by fiddling with settings. I probably shouldn't have done so as now I don't actually know what the problem was (so I can't make a real fix). However, I just tried reselecting my call ringtone, message ringtone, changed my volume up and down, turned silent on and then back off a couple times and enabled vibrate for all calls (not just on silent). Then the next time I got a SMS it worked. I don't know if it will stay working though.
Thanx for answering ! Me, I have no problem with SMS notification. Only calls ring. But, I will follow your note : play with volumes, mp3, sounds, notification modes, ...
I just notice that an icon appeared just a semi-second after a call arrives : that's the "Silent mode activated" icon (an HP with a slash on it !). But I'm not in silent mode !
I had this problem, so I re-flashed and only restored apps and not system data, everything is fine now.
Hey, that's fine, I've found the reason why my phone stopped to ring : an app not compatible with version 2.2.1 called NetQin Mobile Manager v3.2 ! I just uninstalled it and my phone found back his voice ! lol !

I have a same problem here,
I am using Cassie's XtraLiteRom KL3 ThunderBolted! V4
Everything good but today I just notice that my vibration is not working anymore.
Please help!
I have the AT&T version and I'm having the same issue. After a factory reset the vibration for notifications works again but then eventually stops working again...
no vibration
Mine stopped working recently. Not sure how to fix it. Is it something I installed? It does not vibrate for incoming texts or phone calls.
Flashing a stock ROM fixed this for me. I've seen others say that fixing permissions or wiping dalvik will fix too.
Only time this happens to me is when flashing ROMs
I'm sure this makes no difference but when I flash a ROM, I leave those bottom settings under Sound as the defaults. Aka haptic on.
I'm running the stock AT&T ROM. Do I need to be rooted to wipe the dalvik cache? What does "fix the permissions" mean? THANX!

That shouldn't happen running bone stock. Try a factory reset first if you have not done so already. Don't install any apps. Run the phone for a day. If your issue returns I would swap the phone out for a replacement.
The haptic motors in every Android device I've ever owned has done some weird thing or another. I stopped using it. Why blow the motor out early? Vibrate on silent for notifications I found to be sufficient. At first I was put off by changing my using habits but disabling haptic feedback has grown on me.
EDIT: I see you did a factory reset and it came back. I'd exchange for a different handset. Just me though. Someone here might have another solution
THANKS!!!!
;/
It's old topic, I know, but Im bumping it. Vibrations in external apps like facebook messenger or kakaotalk doesnt work for me, but for normal messages, phone calls etc it works, so I doubt its fault of phone. And in my Galaxy Ace before I had same issue, but it just stopped working after some update from devs of this apps i said. Though it would be strange that only few people has such problems. I think its something about settings or w/e, can anybody help here in this thread without saying 'factory reset or exchange phone' ?
Thanks <3

[Q] Can't hear system sounds Remics-ux v1.3

Hi friends,
I have Rom remics-ux v1.3
ICS 4.0.4
Cool Rom really nice and I have all I need
Only strange thing happened two days ago ...
I can't hear system sounds,
That is when I click on the application or turn off/on the screen
Sound disappeared
Which is much less fun that way lol
All the relevant V's under the sound settings are marked:
Touch tones
Screen lock sounds
I tried to download the V-s and return as well as cell phone restart
Remove battery, switch to flight mode and return nothing helps.
I'd love to hear an advice on how to solve it
Thank you!

Can't use touchscreen when calling

Hi guys!
Everytime i want to make a phone call or when I'm in a phone call I cant use the touch screen on the phone, it only stays completely black. I recently updated my phone from leaked V20a to CM 10.1 and thought that maybe the leaked version was causing the problem. But the problem continued on CM and it's getting really frustrating. I noticed that my radio haven changed after update and says "LGP880AT-00-V20A-EUR-XXX-MAR-04-2013, is this causing the issue?
Cheers!
Proximity sensor...Calibrate it and it should be ok!:good:

Got to hiden menu (3845#*880#). Go to: Device test, All auto test menu - Full, ALC / Proximity test. After presing calibrate try to set it to Default. This helped me (DEFAULT option).
Now it seems like i'm not even able to access the hidden menu. When I type in the code nothing happens and when I press the dialer I get "USSD code running" + Connection problem or invalid MMI code.

you can't access the hidden menu if you're not on LG firmware. :silly:
I managed to get into the hidden menu by restoring leaked V20A. The advice above did not work however. When I try to press calibrate I get "Proximity Cal fail: 1023". Anybody know what to do? :crying:
Same here. I guess I'll have to send it back... :'(

[Q] [CM11] Reboots with every notification with screen off

Hi there, guys.
I did a wide search in Google/XDA/whatever and didn't manage to find anything related to my problem, so I'm posting it here :good:
My S3 Mini (I8190N) runs flawless and quite smooth on NovaFusion/Maclaw 20140524. Using Gravity Box for enabling navbar (since the I8190N loses its capacitive buttons when changes the kernel) did the trick and fully usable...
Except for one little BIG bug: everytime I receive a notification (Whatsapp, Gmail, FB, SMS, calls, doesn't matter which app) while the screen is off, it reboots. Every. Single. Notification. Cause of this, my battery lasts just a couple of hours, since is rebooting non stop, and I lose a lot of important things (calls, alarms, SMS, you name it)
I tried some things:
- Installing today's NovaFusion release (didn't solved);
- Clean installing 20140524 again (nope) and clean installing today's release (nope again);
- Removing Xposed and Gravity Box (I thought it could be some incompatibility, but nope);
- Disabling lockscreen (to test if the problem was with lockscreen itself, but no).
Following the logic, it appears to be something related to notifications waking up the screen (the phone even vibrates a little before restarting again), but I didn't find any configuration related to this.
So please, anyone? Any advices? Any solutions? This issue is getting me heads off
Strange bug indeed and i have no idea why. The vibration on boot is always there to tell that bootloader boots. Its easier to troubleshoot a black phone that way, according to the service manual.

Since there seem to be issues with the capacitive button lights on your device, I would assume that the problem is with BLN (Back light notification) which activate the capacitive button backlights when you receive a notification and the screen is off.
I would suggest that you check to see if BLN is enabled and disable it. There is a BLN Control App in the Play store :good:

This makes a HUGE sense! :victory:
(still weird, tho, that only the I8190N loses its capacitive buttons on new kernel, but not entering this discussion haha)
Will try this, @Meticulus. Thanks in advance
Download Disable_BLN.zip and flash in recovery. See if it works. My backlight are always off with this flashed.

Thank you! Now it works perfectly fine Finally found the solution after few months, thank you!
Hi guys,
I tried it. It's working perfectly. Hallelujah!
Now I'm discovering the Xposed to do a lot of other things (autohide the navbar, disable the "3-dot" button on apps, etc)
Thank you very much!

Unfortunately, the workaround "patch" is not available anymore :crying:
would it be possible to upload it again anywhere, maybe here?
or is there another possibility to fix that problem yet?
