IPhone 6 vibrate intensity is very very weak compared to previous generation iPhones.

Got iPhone 6 on 9/19. Found out that Vibrate intensity is very very weak on iPhone 6 compared to previous generation iPhones. I keep missing calls and alerts when on vibrate mode. Is there any solution to this ?

Yes. There are reasons why I want to keep it in vibrate instead of ringtone. At my work, I keep it in vibrate so that no one gets disturbed if I get a call or text. Specially in a meeting, I must put it in vibrate. When I have the phone kept on my desk in vibrate mode, I miss text or calls most of the time now. It never used to happen with my old iPhone 4s.
Also, I use my phone as a pager for my work and I want to keep it in vibrate in the night so that only I get up in the middle of the night when I get a page. I don't want to disturb others at home. I've been missing the pages now because the vibration is very mild and I don't hear even hear it. Again, I never used to miss the pages before on my iPhone 4s.

  • Vibration on samsung galaxy 5 is very weak - even on high.

    I just upgraded to galaxy 5 from galaxy 3.  The vibration on the 3 was good and strong.  The 5's vibration mode is VERY weak.  Does anyone know of a way to increase it?
    Thanks

    Have you checked your settings.? Look in Settings >>  Volume there should be some options to choose from in there I'll add in my post a Link to the Online Manual

  • I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  What do I do?

    I bought my iPhone 4 open line in Vancouver, Canada last week for use here in my home base in Bangkok, Thailand.  But when I tried using my Thai sim, I get a very weak signal, if not a weak signal, then a no service status.  I also have very weak wifi reception.  What do I do?
    I already tried the following:
    a. Turned the phone off and then on.
    b. Checked all wifi connections – no problem given that all our laptops and desktops can connect seamlessly.
    c. I tried restoring the phone to original factory settings via itunes
    d. Tried resetting the phone.
    e.     Tried different microsims from all networks
    f. However, all methods failed given that the network reception is very weak and often reflects – “no service”.  And with regards to the wifi reception It has difficulty in reading even the signal right in front of the wifi router.
    I went to two Apple resellers here in Bangkok and requested that they please look at my Iphone and have it serviced.  I was frustrated when they said that given that I bought my phone in Canada, they are not able to support me and should instead try to contact the Apple store in Canada. 
    I went to apple.ca website and went to the expresslane support and I was said to register and callback.  Tried calling the 1800 number but given that I was in Thailand I had difficulty getting a connection.

  • Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. HELP

    Very weak one bar signal on iphone 5. callers cannot hear me. Other iphones work good in the same locations. HELP

    A network extender? Not sure what that is.. Sounds like it might help here at home.. But what about outside the house? At work, the store, or just out on the road?
    I'm hopeing this is something that can get fixed.. I hate to think I wasted all this money on something that doesn't work.. Does apple have a return police?
    I think I'll try getting an appointment at the apple store to see if they can fix this issue.
    Thanks for your help.

  • HT4623 After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

    After updating Iphone 4s to 6.0 the signal is very weak and the phone drops calls frequently.

    Based on what?
    "When Apple rolled out iOS 6.1, its first major update to iOS 6, yesterday, it introduced a series of bug fixes, software tweaks for iTunes and Siri and also added LTE support - but none of that was any use to the disconnected and discontented sufferers of a particular iPhone software flaw: greyed-out Wi-Fi."

    Take the device to Apple or an Apple authorized service center and let them check it out.

  • The vibration on 4S  is VERY weak.

    The vibration on my 4s is very very weak. I can't even tell it vibrates. It's been that way since I bought the phone from AT&T. I thought it was normal until I started feeling other people's 4s. What can I do? I bought the phone around November last year.

    Test your iPad on some other networks to see if the problem is with the iPad or your Airport Extreme.
    If the problem is with the iPad you will likely have to talk to Apple support since this is likely a hardware problem (disconnected antenna, etc).
    You could try using Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings to see if that helps.

  • Very loud, but very weak vibration motor [Xperia Z1]

    Hi,
    I've bought new Sony Xperia Z1 a few days ago and overall it's a great device, but there is one issue, which is very annoying for me. 
    The vibration motor is very loud, but at the same time vibrations are just weak, so that when the ringtone is set on the lowest level, the motor is louder than this ringtone and when I keep the phone in my pocket I can hardly feel anything when it's vibrating. 
    In the keyboard I've set the shortest possible vibrating time, but it still makes more sound than vibrations. 
    The pitch of the sound is increasing with the duration of the motor working: eg. when I push home button for one time, the sound is quite low (but still loud), but when I press a few times in a row the sound gets higher and even more irritating.
    Is it normal behavior for this smartphone? It's very annoying, because vibration should be discrete way to notify me about incoming calls or text messages. The fact that it is louder than a normal ringtone makes it useless. 
    Is it possible to fix it via software or is it a hardware issue and I should send the phone to the repair center.

    I have the exact same issue.  When the phone is in my holster and vibrates to remind me of a meeting, I can hear the vibrate but not really feel it.  I had a Samsung Galaxy S3 before this and I could feel the vibration all the time and not really feel it.
    This is really a huge downer for it.

    Have brand new iphone 4s. Wifi signal is very weak even when very close to router. I have also an iPod Touch and when both are side by side, the iPod wifi signal is excellent and the iPhone wifi signal is very poor??!!! Hardware issue? or software issue? I was hoping it is just a software issue, but...
    Saw may web sites discussing this same issue; many discussions point to hardware problems but there is no official word from Apple about it, which is disapointing !??  Few discussions point to software problem with solutions based on try and error, and they don't seem to work.

    did not help at all; the problem continues the same

  • Very weak vibration

    Hi,
    New to this forum and just got the Tour . I really like this phone except of the weak vibration. I can hardly tell when its vibrating. Some say their vibration is very strong while others have a very weak one like i do. Im always on vibrate and pocket the phone alot and its causing me to miss calls and messages.Im wondering if there is a fix or return it for a new one since im still on a replacement period. Also my signal keeps jumping from 4-5 bars to 1-2 bars all the time but i suspect an os upgrade could fix that unless im wrong. Wondering if anyone can tell me if there is a solution to the weak vibration on this phone.
    Thank You, G

    I have the same problem with the signal strength bouncing all over the place, and the vibration being very weak.  I'm confident that future OS's will address the signal issue, but I doubt much can be done about the vibration unfortunately

  • Airport Extreme (5 Gen) suddenly very weak Wifi signal

    Hello, everyone.  I have a 5th generation Airport Extreme that was working fine until a few days ago.  My power had gone out, and since then I am getting a very weak Wifi signal.  The network still appears and connects on all of my devices.  However, it is dreadfully slow (0.3 MB/s per Speedtest.net), whereas before it was 50 MB/s.  I have tried resetting to factory settings and opening up the option to 5GHz.  The 5 GHz wireless network works just fine on my iMac.  It doesn't show up as an option on my iPhone, though, and that's what's really bugging me.
    I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem and can help me out.  Of course, my phone support expired a few months ago and now they want $19 for a tech call.  Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Reset to factory again.
    Setup again using all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. If you were doing this make sure you use different names. Empty all the old names from the clients so they start over with fresh clean setup for wifi.
    Use a different name for 5ghz.
    Use fixed channels.. try 1, 6, 11 for 2.4ghz and try 36, and 150 for 5ghz.. around about.. exact channel is not such a big thing for 5ghz.
    Check the link speed and make sure it is full speed if you are in the same room as the AE.
    Test by copying a file on the local lan.. rather than testing to internet which could be a totally unrelated issue.
    Test by using ethernet only on a computer plugged into the AE to see if the internet link has gone slow.
