Upgraded to 4.0.4, Galaxy Note vibrating when it shouldn't!

Hello there, I was wondering if anyone could help with an odd issue my phone has developed?
I have a German Note, sim-free, using it in the UK, not flashed, just running stock 4.0.4.
I updated OTA the other day to 4.0.4, and all was going well until I noticed this odd bug:
Previously, when the volume was reduced all the way down on the ringer it would put the phone into vibrate mode (when it would vibrate for notifications) and one more press of the volume rocker would put it into silent (no sound OR vibration).
Now, when the phone is in silent mode (so it shouldn't ring or vibrate) it vibrates for email notifications (via the native app) and other notifications e.g. words with friends, but it doesn't vibrate for SMS and phonecalls. I've tried changing the individual email settings for vibrate (but it doesn't help, plus I shouldn't really have to!)
Anyone having the same problem or get any ideas? Any help is appreciated!!

Anyone have any ideas?

Isn't there a setting for this?
Vibrate "Always" "Only in Silent" "Never" or something like this.. Possible it was configured differently before you upgraded...

Nope, tried changing it to every setting and it still vibrates when the phone is in silent (not just vibrate only mode).
What makes me think it's a bug is that words with friends also makes the phone vibrate in silent mode.

Open Dialer
Open settings by pressing the left menu button and in vibrate check never instead of only in silent or always..

I'm running the stock ROM if that's any help

No vibration in Whatsapp when sound is on.

My phone does not vibrate when I receive a whatsapp message.
Vibrating function is tested and it is working, so no hardware defect. Also I turned on vibrate in whatsapp notifications.
If I put my phone to silent, Whatsapp does vibrate... Very strange, I always had it working on my Xperia S.
Anyone else with this problem?

I actually need what happens to you ! I use sound only to save battery and it vibrates anyway
So far I noticed that this happens if vibrate is set to default
try using short/long vibrate in whatsapp settings
if I set to short ,which I prefer than my Default's, I get sound and vibration

Go to whatsapp settings and put vibrate to long.

Hello guys I got a sony Z1 used in very good conditions, except for the vibrator.... some times it makes a strange noise .. is there a way to DISABLE all vibrations for the phone? this include notifications, emails etc ALL, I already disable haptic feedback and keyboard...

Hi this is a problem that affected the Z1 with the time, you can disable all vibrations in the configuration

[Q] Problem with silent mode and wifi.

My Z3 compact will randomly change to silent mode and the wifi will turn off. This happens at anytime and my phone could still be on high battery. I'm just wondering if anyone has a solution to this. Thanks

how to turn off vibration?

hi is there any option in stock 7.0 to compeletely turn off vibration for calls and notifications?

In sounds, turn off also vibrate with calls, depending on what messenger you use, there's also an option in there, same goes for most apps like gmail
