  • After 2.2 update my phone vibrates when I turn it off

    Hi: After the 2.2 update,  when I turn off my phone it vibrates.  It used to play my notification "Moonbeam".  I have gone to 'settings" & turned off the vibrate & the phone still vibrates when I turn it off.  I hate that feature.  Also the google bar is showing on my husband's home screen & get get it off either. 
    Can anyone help with these issues.
    Thanks

    I've got a different phone. I never had an option to set a musical tone for when my phone turns on.   My phone always just vibrates when it comes on even if it is set to silent. Can't find a way to change it either.

  • My ringtone will not work, the phone just vibrates when receiving calls.

    I just got a new Iphone5s today and my ringtone will not work. The phone just vibrates when receiving calls. How can I get my ringtone to work?

    In addition, the most basic troubleshooting is to restart/reset/restore.

  • Vibrates when i turn phone on

    when i turn the iPhone 6 on,it vibrates twice then goes to unlock screen,how do i turn this off?

    Do you have the screen off? If you're using the iPhone at the time, calls and messages still come through as normal.

    i was needing someones advice on how to fix my iphone4 when i turn it on it flicks between the home screen and the apple icon

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Phone won't turn on, just vibrates when plugged in

    Last night, I plugged my phone in before bed.  It showed on the battery icon that it was charging, and the red charge indicator light was on once the display turned off.  However, by the time I woke up, the phone was dead, though still plugged in.  I couldn't get it to do anything, so I tried an old battery that I had.  Put the battery in, the phone turned on and showed a 47% charge.  Knowing that battery was garbage (which is why I got a new one; I just held onto the old one for emergencies), I put the phone on the charger and the battery icon showed charging.  Instantaneously, though (I'm not exaggerating, it was literally instant), the phone dropped to a 1% charge.  I quickly tried to turn the phone off to see if I could even get even a little bit of an efficient charge out of it, and the phone started power cycling.  I tried to stop it, but it turned itself off and on probably 20 times before it finally totally died (kind of reminded me of how sometimes an sick animal will go bat guano bonkers before it kicks it). 
    Now, when I try to plug the phone in it just pulse-vibrates every 2 or so seconds instead of showing that it's charging.  It will continue to vibrate like that for a minute or two after I take it off the charger before it finally stops.  Won't turn on in any mode, plugged in or not - I do get a flicker of the opening "Samsung Galaxy" screen before it shuts off and goes back to vibrating.  I've tried to let it charge for 30-45 minutes, but no change.  Taken the battery out, smacked it a few times, tried to charge with my computer, tried different cables/chargers, nothing helps.  I have no idea if either battery has any charge at all at this point (though I suspect not).  I haven't damaged my phone at all - no recent/significant drops, no water - but of course I'm just barely barely out of warranty.  Am I toast or is there some way to fix this?

    Thanks for your reply.
    Unfortunately, since (as I clearly noted in my original question) my phone will not turn on, I can't confirm the phone software, though I've downloaded any and all updates that I've been notified of.  I have no idea if any apps updated immediately prior to the issue happening; it's likely that some update to something downloaded not long before the problem started since I plugged in the phone shortly after I got home for the evening and reconnected to my home WiFi, but I wouldn't have any way to tell you what it might be.  My phone will not boot in safe or recovery mode either, if that helps answer if an app is causing the issue.
    I tried to take it to a Verizon store; they told me that they had literally NEVER heard of my issue before and so wouldn't be able to fix it and didn't even attempt to help, just tried to sell me a new phone, so that wasn't super helpful.  Since I had zero problems up to this point with my phone, and because I'm now not eligible for the early upgrade to the Edge program without the early termination fee because I don't have a working phone, it sure would be great to fix the one I have.  If anyone else has any advice, I'd appreciate it!

  • Can I get the iPhone to just vibrate when I get a call?

    It seems for the phone to vibrate you need to have a ringtone on. Turn off the ringtone and it doesn't vibrate. I tested it both ways. *****. My old verizon phone would vibrate letting me know someone left a message or texted me without ringing.
    Helpful if in movie or meeting.

    Use the switch on the side of the phone, above the volume rocker. That sets the iPhone to silent mode. If Settings > Sounds > Silent has vibrate ON, the phone will vibrate for incoming calls/email/SMS/etc. in silent mode. If OFF, it will be silent. It will not silence alarms set on the iPhone Clock app, but all else is vibrate or silent.

  • My iPad 1 just crashed when I turn it on, again and again

    It's VERY unlikely, but you may have some videos on your iPod, and your library is making them out to be songs, but your iPod seperates them.
    If that isn't it, then those songs might be corrupted. If that isn't the case, then I'm not sure what to tell you. Have you tried updating iTunes, or restoring your iPod?

  • I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I would also like this issue addressed.
    I am using a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and when it is connected to my iPhone 4, email and text sounds are not audible through the phone. The phone just vibrates when a new text or email is received.
    I don't really care if it plays through the headset, but it should at least play through the phone. I tested the headset from a BlackBerry and the alerts play fine.

  • My iPhone just stopped vibrating when getting incoming emails...

    My iPhone just stopped vibrating when getting incoming emails... Yesterday everytime i got an email, my phone would vibrate, and now, its on vibrate and it doesnt vibrate with new emails, does anyone know how to correct this?

    Mine does the same thing, and it also bleeds over into the email tone as well. It works for a while and then it suddenly stops. Turning the phone off and back on fixes it for a while, but it's a pain.

  • Why does my signal drops and takes a long time to search and connect when I turn on or off my cellular data? And normal text messages are not getting delivered properly. It shows sent but later it will show try again, Is it just me?

    I do not know what the problem is, but after the latest update it is really hard to send text messages. It is taking alot of time to send the messages, it is not the problem with the carrier because sending text messages with the same number in the same area is really easy on my normal nokia 1100. Please suggest me what I should check. Second problem I am facing is the carrier signal drops to nothing when I turn on the cellular data. It has to then search for the network and connect again the same happens when I turn the data off again. Please tell a solution. I do not think it is the problem with the hardware because the phone is hardly 2weeks old and everything was working properly with ios 6. It initaly had problem with the battery on updating to ios7 but that was rectified with the new update but again these are the new issues am facing.

    This may sound stupid, but I'm gonna throw it out there anyway. Is it possible, that if I have enough junk on my desktop it might disrupt the signal? It seems odd, but it kind of looks like my signal is strong and relatively steady now that I've cleaned my desktop. I do tend to get very cluttered. I use a lot of reference images and save text clippings to use later... it just piles up very quickly.
    So, I wonder if all that extra effort my system has to do keeping up with the junk might have something to do with the drop outs?
