I just noticed that I'm not getting any haptic feedback on my Nexus 4, whether on the keyboard or the navigation buttons. I've had the phone for just under a month and have really loved the haptic feedback, but tonight I'm not getting anything. In fact, I'm not getting any vibration from the phone at all, including when I power it on and off. I haven't changed any of the settings and "vibrate to touch" is on.
Is the motor toast or am I just missing something?
Google is just going to send me a replacement. I'm a happy camper.

If you're getting a replacement then there is no need to answer you but I feel like it lol. Your motor is dead. That happened to me on my old Hercules.

I'm just glad it happened so early after my purchase. It would have been much more difficult to deal with afterwards.

Around the notification bar area, touch the screen hard. Does your screen feel like its clicking in like the blackberry storm? I have a problem and I'm wondering if it's only me

Mine doesn't do that.
Are you pressing down?

Yeah, not super hard, as I don't want to break it. But a lot harder then I would be if I was trying to use the touch screen or buttons.
If I were you I'd go to best buy and ask to play with the demo. Try it on the demo, if it doesn't happen, exchange yours.
Thanks for the advice

Did you try it with the screen off or on because mine seems to do it when on only
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
Mine does NOT click or feel like it's clicking when touching (moderate pressure) the notification bar area (right, left or center), with the screen on or off.
None of the three Nexus S handsets I've gone through so far have done that. Take it back. Samsung's QC needs a lot of work.
Thanks alot for the replies guys. I'll be exchanging it
I unfortunately just realized I have this problem,right near the FCC woohoo 3rd nexus s
yea it sucks tell me how your exchange goes

Its weak I can't even notice it while its on NY table my s3 was perfect vibrations were great

I'm the same, I barely notice the vibrations. This is in comparison to my Bother's Blackberry Curve which makes me jump out of my skin when it vibrates. I guess it's good that we have the LED at the front so we don't miss messages.
Hello guys, i've got the N4 from exactly 1 month and at first the vibration feedback was awesome, really deep and good. Now the feedback is barely notable, but only in short vibrations.
Example:
-Good/normal feedback with vibrations that lasts more than 10ms like sms and calls notifications
-Poor/barely notable feedback with the haptic feedback of the 3 navbar buttons and of the standard 5ms feedback of the stock keyboard.
I can adjust the "power/intensity" of the haptic feedback with apps like "Franco kernel updater" but my fear is that the problem can be worst in time.
What do you think? Have you noticed a similar behaviour with your N4? Do you think it's normal or it's a hardware problem?
PS: I searched on XDA and there's dome threads about similiar problems, but seems that for the other guys the problem was for all time of vibration.
Sorry for the bad english
R: Vibration / Haptic feedback problem, and you?
No one can give me an answer or a tip?

I have the same problem with my Nexus 4. The vibration, especially with typing used to be very good, now I can barely notice it. I have to crank up the vibration to 100 in kernel settings, but before I could leave it as is and have no issue with vibration. I do increase the haptic feedback vibration too, but it doesn't have that deep vibration feeling like it once had.

Yeah, I agree. I'm surprised no one else has this problem.

guys I noticed something. try placing the phone on a surface and press the three touch buttons, the vibration does not work! try to keep it in hand and it works! to you?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
The vibration's still working, you're just not able to feel it. The vibration isn't actually coming through where you press the button - it pulses the whole phone, just like an incoming call but gentler. If you put your ear close to the phone when it's on a surface and you press the button, you'll hear the vibration working just fine.
R: Vibration works only in hand!
thanks, not everyone would have answered a question like that. I got the doubt because the touch of my old phone works better if it had contact with hand on the back top(Samsung spica)
Thanks a lot

When I turn on the Magnification gestures in the accessibility settings everything works fine except the keyboard. Its very laggy no matter if Im on stock or not.
I would be grateful for any help

Just turned mine on and no issues , anything certain you do to cause this to happen ?

No I dont think so. I've noticed it back in january when I bought the phone. I even had it with my old Galaxy S with every 4.2 rom and my friend has the same issue with his Nexus 4. The keyboard is responsive but very slow. I can live without the gesture but its very annoying because I love that feature.

Well it does appear to cause me allot of issues if it is on while playing a game! (CSR racing)
