[Q] Does your vibration signal sometimes stutter too? - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys!
Got my Exynos Note 4 a couple of days ago, and it's awesome!!!
But there is something I find quite weird. Sometimes when I receive a notification the vibration is normal, but sometimes, like 50 percent of the time, it makes a very weird irregual stuttering vibration.
It has never done this with incoming calls, only with notifications.
I was wondering if anybody else experienced this, or whether it's just a setting that i haven't been able to find? It's for sure not a signal like the 'Waltz' or the 'Jinglebell' they list under settings.
My device is the C-model sold in Holland imported from some kind of slavic country, I know this because they had manuals i couldn't understand.
Thanks in advance!

HD2 Vibrate Strength

Apologies in advance if this issue has been covered, but I failed to see it in any searches.
I was wondering if there was anyway of increasing the strength of the vibrate on this model? When I receive calls or messages in meetings, I am unable to notice in when it's on vibrate mode.
Thanks.
hmm the HD2 has the strongest vibration that i know of, if you cant feel that perhaps your nerves are buggered
what when mine vibrates it registers on the richter scale.
lmao, same here. When I recive messages, emails etc. in class everyone look at me -.-
Be sure to turn vibration on, you must manually do that for Messages and emails etc. from sounds settings I mean.
I've checked all the settings and ensured "vibrate" is on, but I can still barely notice it. Ah well, thanks for the replies guys

Strange, mine is loud enough. I always notice my messages etc. but it is maybe becouse I use SonyEricsson MBW-100 with my Leo?
Interesting indeed, all the posts I've seen about vibration so far were about REDUCING it
Could someone give me a thread about decreasing vibration strenght then? I tried to search sometime ago but couldn't find a way to decrease keypress vibration for example....

Wear less clothing
Seriously though, the only way to increase the vibrating strength would be to actually open the phone and take out the vibrating motor, and either add a heavier weight to it, or to change to a motor with a higher RPM.
However, that will not only void your warranty, but can possibly a) cause structural damage to your phone or b) drain battery faster.
Mine is also not so strong, and before I used to have Nokia's which were a lot stronger, so their might be some weaker HD2?! So question stays: Is there a solution to +/- vibration on HD2?
hey, id also like to know how you can turn down the AMOUNT OF TIME that it vibrates for, when ever i get a text, it vibrates my ages!

Vibration settings

Hi,
I have a couple of questions regarding the Legend's vibrator.
First of all, I would like it to vibrate when receiving a SMS only when in vibration mode. So far, all I can find in the settings is the option to either vibrate or not, no matter what profile is used. Am I missing something, or do I need an app that has further settings?
Second, I think the vibrator is a bit loud, and would love to be able to set the intensity. The first day after I bought my Legend, I was in a meeting with just two other people in a small office, and when my phone rang (vibrated) it attracted quite some attention because it was so loud. Again, am I missing where to change this, or do I need an app?
I tried searching the Market for an app to control vibration settings to address both or even just one of these issues, but didn't find anything useful. The closest was Smart Vibrator, which lets me compose vibration patterns for SMS as well as calls, which could solve issue #2 by doing a pattern of very brief vibrations - but it's still not exactly what I am looking for. Have anyone come across something more useful?

How are others finding the vibrate function? Good? Bad? Weak? Strong?
Coming from a Palm Pre, one of the frustrating aspects was a weak vibrator; causing me to miss notifications of calls, txts, emails, etc.

N910G Lollipop 5.1.1 Notification Sound low volume + echo problem

Hello,
Recently bought a new Note 4 N910G grey market from Hong Kong, and want to figure out if the problem I am having is some dumb software problem, or a possible hardware issue I should be worried about.
The Problem:
Notification sounds seemingly randomly echo or play very softly or get cut-off or start halfway through... it's difficult to tell exactly or to tell if it's doing the same thing each time it happens. Often the second sound will be fine and the normal volume. It sometimes sounds like the sound is playing twice at the same time but too soft and out of sync. I may get two Facebook notifications (for example - as far as I can tell it happens to all notifications) and the first will be this odd soft sound (which I believe is the correct sound I have chosen being played, but with either a large echo or something, and far too soft) and then the second one will be totally normal.
I haven't noticed any issues playing audio. Just with notifications. Seems to happen with the screen on or off.
N910G with OTA update to 5.1.1, XSA variant.
My custom notification sounds are on external sd card, but I think it's happened to some that aren't as well - like the inbuilt Skype sound which I can't change.
Anyone else have this problem? Does it sound like software, or hardware? Any idea how to troubleshoot or fix it?
Thanks heaps.
No one?

Text messages and phone calls

Hey guys I have a quick question. I own a s8 Canadian version with Bell and I wanted to know if I'm the only with this issue. My text messages always come in late no matter which app I use and when people call me they get the ringing on their end but my phone doesn't wake up to ring. So I've been missing a lot of calls.
I noticed it happens when I'm connected to wifi. If I'm on LTE it seems to work fine.
Looks like I'm the only one with this issue.
That's really weird

Incoming calls - buzzing sound [video inside]

Hi,
I'm loving my OnePlus 5, but there is a strange behaviour with incoming calls. When the phone is ringing and vibrating, sometimes a really bad buzzing sound occurs every few seconds.
It doesn't happen with every call and I have absolutely no idea what's triggering it. I've thought about the vibration motor, but then it shouldn't only make that sound for some calls.
Anyone else with this issue?
Ok, I've done some tests and can easily reproduce the issue:
It happens when vibration is set to strong, like it is set default for calls, and the phone is lying somewhere. As soon as i touch the phone a little bit or take it in the hand, the sound stops. It cames definitely from the top (right?) of the phone.
It would be nice, if anyone could check if their phone makes the same noises. Either call your phone or simply go to vibrations settings.
I've made a video of the vibration sound on strong settings. Would anyone please be so kind to check it on his/her device? You can hear the strange noise pretty well.
OnePlus support told me it was normal.

Just tried on mine, doesn't have the issue, the support is clearly ****ing with you. If i had this issue, I would just get nuts

Thanks for your reply. I've set vibration to medium as a workaround. It would have been hard to believe every device is doing this ugly noise, especially since you hear it with standard settings for incoming calls.
Nevertheless I'd appreciate any further feedback wether his/ her device is affected or not.
Bro, I'd like to know if this issue got fixed for you? I am commenting because I started noticing this too.

I had to RMA the phone. Unfortunately it's the only solution.
I have 2 days left before my 10-day-replacement policy is over. You're saying, your replacement device doesn't have the issue?
