has anyone experienced the problem of vibration not turning off when receiving email? my hd2 vibrated for like i dont know, at least almost 10minutes one night when i was sleeping and i was woken up by the sound of the vibration. thank God the vibration motor was not burnt due to overuse or overheat.
i had a windows mobile 5 htc made smartphone and the vibration motor almost got damaged once because the entire device got stuck and hang in one occasion when a call was received and i was out. the phone was charging and i think the vibration went on and on more God knows how long. when i got back, the motor was extremely weak, and i think permenantly damaged.
and i dont like the fact that in every windows mobile phone (or just htc phones) the vibration does not pulse, and is constantly on until the ringtone is finished playing. this is really dumb. has been like this since windows mobile 5. i've owned 4 htc made windows phone now and even the latest and greatest HD2 has not improved in this matter.

I would also like pulationg vibration.......while this way it will be more effective.. and saving some battery on teh other hand . then continously vibrating ..
may be someone can do it with some hack....

Add me to the list, mine got stuck from the text message alert, i thought it was just me! Although, i thought it might of been because the alert tone was too long (approx 10 seconds), i changed the alert tone to a shorter one and so far it seems to of stopped the problem.
I have the same issue, do we think this is ROM related or not?
I have this problem once only. It happened when I use Custom ROM. Running back the stock ROM, problem does not occur.
I have it as well
I have it as well ...and twice, also with the official ROM where I didn't install any Custom ROM so far.
i've had it twice now, first with official ROM, second, just 2 days ago, with custom ROM. and it all happened in the middle of night, 3-5am! darn phone woke me up with a scare! i thought i was the only one.

I had the same problem once, I have received an SMS during looking on weather and changing to view the home screen - it got stucked totally, I had to softreset the phone putting out the battery.
looks like we are not alone.. i hope more owners will take notice of this issue so we can collectively complain to htc. it's getting on my nerves waking me up in the middle of the night!
this morning with the alarm it vibrated non stop instead of with a few pauses, and it kept on vibrating untill I stopped the alarm..
sigh.. bug #667
Try this for phone and SMS vibration patterns;

For alarms, I use SPB Time 3.2 anyway... I love how they have a Bioalarm (Chirping birds, but relatively silent and ascending volume) and also how you can shake to snooze (which works really well and does not involve a serious shaking)
It happens for me too, but only when receiving text messages - it just keps buzzing
My "solution" in "Normal Mode" was to have only sound (I turned of vibration) when receiving text messages.
When on "Vibration Mode" this does not happen
I've had this happen on 3 different HTC phones:
Touch Diamond
Xperia X1
and now HD2
It must be some kind of issue between WM and HTC hardware... because I can't imagine all the different ROMs I've flashed on all three devices had this bug...
I just turn off vibration for txt and email. Wish this could be fixed.
i had this problem today. my text came in at 12am and i only manage to get awake by the vibrate noise at 4am to stop it! my text tone is 6sec . 4 hour of vibrating. luckily the vibrate still working. Gosh
Lol lol lol lol lol lol lol
I JUST CAME ACROSS THIS THREAD RIGHT NOW AND COINCIDENTLY,I JUST RECIEVED AN EMAIL & MY PHONE JUST DID THIS NON-STOP VIBRATION PROBLEM!!!!! WHAT WAS THE CHANCES OF THAT!?
Seriously, this is the first time it has done that not sure why. I just flashed this rom(Dutty's) about 3-4 days ago. Let us know if anyone finds a solution and why it does it.

WOW, is it time-based ? I read this last night and the stuck vibration happened to my unit this morning on an email notification! (TMOUS stock)
I haven't really had a stuck problem with my Tmo US version with stock e-mail ringtone. One of my gripes with this phone though is how weak the vibrator is. When I have it in my pocket, I can barely feel a thing unless I am sitting down? Maybe my pants are too loose/baggy? I wouldn't want to have to wear skinny jeans just for the phone though.
I used to have the Tmo MyTouch3g and the vibrator on that phone was perfect. It had pulse vibrate AND it was strong enough for me to feel in my pocket.
using sat nav last week got to my destination recieved an e-mail and then heard a strange noise thought it was my car turned off engine still had noise, touched the roof and it was vibrating, it was the phone had to reset to stop it, it has strongest vibration of any phone i've oned.

Hi,
Just got my Desire HD today and it's all good except I've noticed a rattle when the vibrator kicks in, ie when you're entering text for a message etc that is a very different sound to the actual vibrator itself. Has anyone else noticed it?

Dude! have the exact same Issue! I was going insane, because i thought it happened after i dropped my phone. But You're saying you have it and your phone is new. Anyone else?
My vibration motor failed last Friday. Makes a scraping/clicking/whining noise depending on how I hold it. Never dropped and kept in a HTC leather pouch all the time.
HTC UK quoted 28+ days to repair as "there is a backlog of repairs, due to us moving repair centres". Told them to fcuk right off, not waiting that length of time.
Twisted Phones4U's arm (who I bought the handset off) and they reluctantly agreed a replacement.
I'm still waiting for that, as the first replacement had extremely poor fitting covers, both battery & SIM/SD card.
Sorry to hear that andy. But the issue we are describing is the vibrator producing a rattling "click" sporadically when delivering haptic feedback. It's close in sound to an ipod keypress osund (LOL, didn't know how to describe it otherwise). It's a minor issue, but it's driving me insane! We want to see how many people have noticed it, and if there is a solution/workaround
Same issue here - worked fine for the first week of owning the phone and since then the vibrate function rattles so loud it's embarassing so I avoid using it altogether (not to mention it's a horrible high pitched sort of sound).
I have, however, noticed that if I gently squeeze the left and right sides of the phone and test the vibrate function it works correctly as it's meant to (I try to avoid doing this often as I'm scared I'll damage the screen by putting too much pressure on it). It's almost as if the vibrate motor gains some breathing room and space for movement.
This leads me to believe that either the various removable covers are no longer a decent fit (and they were a pretty bad fit to begin with) and are causing the rattle or the whole case has warped somehow causing the vibrate feature to play up.
I'd be interested to see if any other people confirm this to be an issue.
I have baught my Desire HD around 6 months back. Even my phone gives rattle sound (Something like there are some loose part inside). I don't remember if I have this issue when I bausght the phone, But I am facing this since long time.
In some threads they say the metal ring around the camera could be loose and it rattles when the phone vibrates. Maybe it could be that but my phone vibration is weak but normal.
there comes more and more a louder sound when the phone is vibrating. but when its in my bag, its sometimes better i hear it a bit
Love this phone only issue 'ive had is my speakers stop working. i always had my phone on vibrate because of school but then one day i switch it back to ring and it never did. every once in awhile some noise did come out but nothing has happened i;ve opened it up but couldn't see what was wring any ideas
Are you on the stock ROM?
Has anyone else noticed the earpiece speaker rattles/vibrates during calls on their Note 4? Its not terrible, but its defo noticable and really annoying. I expected a perfect new phone. Was wondering if this is a general issue before I swap handset?
I havent noticed but could it be the camera module, hold phone close to ear and shake gently, same noise?
I'd say go for a replacement, mine does not make any obscure noise, my 1st note 3 however had an obnoxious vibration from the speaker.
Looks like I will have to go for a replacement I think. Theres no sound coming from camera. Thanks for the suggestion though. I even tried taking the back off the phone to see if it was that vibrating slightly, but no different. Tried pressing against top part of pbone too as thought this may firm up any loose parts, but had no joy. Its a pain as just set all settings as I wanted and really wanted to avoid replacement. Oh well lol. Thank you for your reply, appreciated!
Finally managed to change phone after store got new stock in. Turns out I had a faulty handset. New one is perfect, no unwanted sound from earpiece at all!
EDIT:
It's fixed now. I work outside and it was raining, i think some water got inside near the speaker.
It's back to normal now.
Just today, just like that, the speaker became much quieter than it used to be.
All volumes are on max.
Anyone experienced this?
I dont know why it works, but try to pull down the notification bar, when music/etc is playing.
For me its getting about 50 % louder(obviously it only works once, and you need to do it again, after a reboot).
Try it multiple times, if its not working.
Edit: I am blind ._. Didnt see you edit
