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

Quick question. Just got the 4.2.2 update and I noticed that I cannot adjust volume on the lock screen. Was that option removed?
It was. I liked it, wish they would have kept it.

Hit and miss for me. Like it when listening to music. Annoyed me when not as I would accidently hit it sometimes instead of power if holding upside down

The vol buttons still work when listening to music, just the graphic does not show up now.
I liked the original way of doing things for putting your phone to silent/vibrate really fast.
mine updated last night, and i too miss this function!
Found it really useful

Hey guys, I just got my Galaxy S4 today. It's an amazing phone but I'm concerned about something.
The first thing I noticed is that the Power Button seems like it's flushed inside de phone and it doesn't provide a good click-feel like the Volume buttons. It's kind of mushy.
Sometimes I don't know if I pressed the button or not. It doesn't feel like clicking, it looks like it got stuck a little inside the phone.
I would like to know if anyone feels the same. If not I'll go as soon as possible to the store and exchange for a new phone.
This is a fault. Take it back ASAP Mine feels perfect, Its slightly elevated from the phone and has a nice click feel when pressing
You do not look for a nice click, just for the responsivnes. Note it works best when pressed in the middle, also give it some time to bake in.

Alright, I'll give it some time and see if it goes back to "normal" (or at least close to it).
If it doesn't I'll exchange it for a new one.
There was a small piece of black rubber inside the button.
Pressing it multiple times was making it come out. The button now feels right again.
It's pretty wierd though. I'm just glad it wasn't anything permanent.
Hello everyone,
Today I notice something very strange about the volume button. When I press on it, it just seem to be not fixed on its slot. It is not very tight, it is like the metalic button will fall out because I and move it from left to right horizontaly.
Can you test yours so that I can confirm that everyone phone has the same or it is a build quality of the mine.
Thank you for your help.
I'm not having that issue. My volume button seems just in place and tight enough

No problem here, we have two S4's one White and one Black. Both have nice sturdy volume buttons. Only the White one has a slight loose power button. But all is working without a problem.
mods delete please!
It works just fine for me, but you can adjust the amount of vibration the phone has for a couple different things... It's under Settings>Sounds>Vibration Intensity. I think it's the Haptic option, after some testing.
...
OK, I just did a vibrate only test. No sound.. and nothing happens. All vibrations on max haptic is on and I got nothing coming from it. Can someone test this out for me?

Haha. Noob failure of the day.. i should have done a better Google search. The power saving mode which i didn't know was on actually turns off the haptic feedback. -___-

I was using my phone like any other day, and then I locked my phone and later on went to wake the screen and it wouldn't wake up. I did a "battery pull" (power+volume down) and it rebooted fine. When it came back on, I tried to press the button to lock the screen but to no avail. I went on and got smart screen on and it works okay but I'd like to know if any of you know what's wrong with it. It feels fine, clicks like normal. I haven't dropped it recently or anything. But sometimes, when I barely touch the power button, the power menu opens. I don't really understand that but if any of you have any help for me, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Kinda sounds like a hardware issue maybe some pocket lint or something wiggled it's way in there... Take it apart and have a look..you would be surprised as to what can work it's way in there

Just suddenly began working the next day. I don't exactly know why... Maybe an app or something had it confused. I really don't know.
