I've been searching throughout the net and seems I might be one of the few fortunate to own a G900F with to vibrations.
A couple of weeks ago I noticed the vibrations stopped working out of the blue. I do not recall dropping the phone or any similar impact to it.
I am on Lollipop. There is no feedback and I did try everything: all settings, the *#0*# test menu.
Everything works fine except the vibrations. If it wasn't the great design of the s5 that would make you take out the display first and only then gaign acces to anything within the phone I would have opened it up the day it stopped working, but considering this... I am not too keed in opening it all up.
Has anybody else experienced anything similar and perhaps found the solution?
Thank you.

Have only had my HD2 since Friday and was going to send it back tomorrow because the speaker has never worked. But now it's starting working.
No idea what triggered this or whether it'll remain "fixed" forever. All I did was try to replicate something that made my HD2 freeze in a completely unusable way yesterday (see my other thread) and suddenly it started working.
Having done a search it appears a few users have had speaker issues. Has anyone else had this problem rectify itself? Can I expect it to remain okay?
Cheers

Hi!
I feel like i searched nearly the whole internet for an answer, but only very few people seem to have these problems so i found nothing that could help me...
I have 3 really annoying bugs on my Play (locked, not rooted, bought in may):
- It randomly reboots from time to time. I tried to figure out when it happens but it has absolutly no relation to what i do with it. it mostly happens when i'm not using it. so it just lies around doing nothing and suddenly i see the sony ericcson logo on the sreen and it reboots...
- The second bug is: it throws me back to the enter PIN screen. like i never entered the PIN it kills wlan, mobile network etc and waits until i reenter the PIN...
- Third is: the clock stops at random times. it seems that this happens sometimes while in flight mode (i always put it in flight mode during the night because i don't want to be disturbed while sleeping and i use the alarmclock).
I already tried to turn off the automatic time via internet because i thought "perhaps it is irritated when internet is no longer available and then it just stops".
But it also happend while in normal mode with wlan on. in that case the clock only stops for a few minutes and then resumes, resulting in a 5 minutes or so difference to the real time without the phone noticing it (even with automatic time turned on)
I don't expect, that anyone can help me fix this, but it would be interesting to know if anybody else experienced these bugs and if you think its hardware or software related.
I already tried getting a warranty replacement. I sent the phone back to amazon, but they have an own mobile phone repair department and, surprise, none of the bugs occured while they tested it. So i got it back with: Sorry nothing found phone works fine....
I would be glad for any sort of advice.
I'm experiencing the random reboots. I believe it has something to do with a software issue on the Sony end. I'm about to check their site now. I'll report back if i find anything.
EDIT: Just finished a chat support session, and in his official capacity he instructed me to either take it to Verizon, or to ship it to their evaluation/repair center. Big load of help. :\

Can you please PM me with more details on your random reboots? I'd be interested to know what applications you were running at the time, signal strength, battery level, and any other details that could help me troubleshoot your issue.
Hey guys
I've been searching for a while now and couldn't find any other threads related to my problem so far.
I've bought my GT-i9500 a few weeks ago, installed a few apps from my former S3 (which always worked ever so fine), updated my accounts and that was that. I did not root it or anything like that, and all of the sudden it didn't "turn to mute" anymore.
I went over and over the motion settings, when it gets restarted, it goes back on working, but after a few hours, it just stops working.
I am not a heavy user, games and internet access sums most of my usage of the device.
Has anybody faced this issue before? With the S4 or any other phones?
It gets really frustrating, because I really rely on this for incoming calls and snooze hehe
Most sicerely,
Vicente

Noticed within a few hours after rooting, my mic was not working. Callers could not hear me. This occurs for both regular calls and Hangouts calls. This dosen't seem to be a hardware issue as the mic works for google voice assistant. Seems to occur out of the blue, and so far ive been messing with settings and somehow the mic began working again, but the issue repeated itself later yet again.
Has anyone else had a similar issue?
Looks like im a loner with this issue. This may still be a HW issue. Might swap and get a new phone while i still can and see if the issue persists.
I have a river_amz I just obtained, waiting for sis to come over and get the FRP thing sorted. I'm going to be rooting immediately after unlocking bootloader. I will post here and let you know if I experience the same thing.
Have you found out anything since your last post regarding this btw?
No. It's been solidly working all day yesterday. Trying to make it fail again.
My only hope is its not a intermittent HW issue that will pop up bigtime after my return window expires.

So far, I've not experienced the issue on a rooted river_amz on 16_7.
Mic on MOTO G7 not working
I'm having an issue like this, but my mic just does not work at all. I'm pretty sure this one is a hardware issue because the only way I can talk to people is plugging in headphones. Do you have the regular G7, or the play/power/plus?
