No vibration on z10

Hi
i got my new z10 recently, but i found out that there is no vibration on it. is it a hardware problem? how can i fix it? thank you.

Good day
Welcome to BB forums
What do you mean there no vibration? That seems odd have you done OS update yet?
You follow all ratcat suggestions or better outline those settings below?
Open your Settings > Notifications only one time, and set to VIBRATE MODE.
Your Z10 is in Vibrate mode.
To return to NORMAL mode, swipe open your settings screen and ONLY TOUCH the "bell" icon back to normal.
To return to Vibrate mode again, only swipe open your settings and only touch the "bell" icon to switch to Vibrate mode.
So now, you can easily in two touches, go from normal to vibrate and back and forth (or from any other mode (silent) back to normal.)

  • Z10 won't stop vibrating.

    There was a forum on this last year and it was no help at all. It started happening last week. I left my Z10 at home and when I got home, it was vibrating non-stop. I restarted it, nothing. So I pulled out the battery to see if that worked. Still nothing. I did the whole factory reset and still NOTHING. It only stops vibrating when I pull the battery out and it's not inserted. Anybody else having the same problems? How do you fix this?

    If this problem still persists, I suggest contacting your Network Service Provider to arrange repair or replacement

  • Vibrating intensity too low for BB Z10

    Hi Team,
    Any idea on how to increase vibrating intensity for BB Z10 ?
    Currently the vibrating intensity is too low to feel and missing the calls.
    OS: 10.0.10.90
    Thanks,
    Ravindra Dolas

    I don't think there is a way to increase the intensity or the number of vibrations on the Z10;  another failure by the developers of taking away existing functionality.

  • Lack of settings in Z10

    Anybody else disappointed with the lack of settings on the Z10 vs the Bold?
    For instance you can not set the number of vibrates when you have a notification
    When you plug in your phone to a charger you can not set it up to go into Bedside Mode
    and a few other little things that I really liked about the OS7
    unless I'm not doing something right,can someone tell me how?
    Thanks

    Old news, there are many posts here about this already.
    The Notification granularity from prior BBoSes is not yet available in profiles.... yet.
    We are all hoping that these will be added into the OS in newer OS versions.
    Bedside mode is enabled by pulling down the "shade" (swipe down from the top) on the lock screen, or by going into the alarm and pulling down the top menu.

  • A few days into having the Z10- MY pros/cons/thoughts/concerns/praises/etc....

    *Let me preface this by saying I just want to lay it all out on the table- you may take it with a grain of salt, or feel free to comment!*
    I have been a very loyal blackberry customer since 2007- I've had their curves, bolds, and torches, and I currently own the Torch 9810. Blackberry has been a fantastic company, and I've always loved owning a blackberry. I was EXTREMELY excited when I found out that they were releasing a new operating system as well as two phones, so, on the 22nd, when AT&T released the Z10, I went and bought it outright so that I could play around with the OS. Man on man, can I say how brilliant Blackberry has done with their new line of phones. The Z10 is sleek, sexy, quick, and unlike anything out there. I played around with it for quite some time, and the following are things that I've thought about it:
    Good things/good features/wow effect:
    - huge, bright, and wonderful screen
    - quick interface and smooth OS
    - loved being able to access the camera without having to go into the phone
    - THE CAMERA!! WOW As all BB users can tell you, it is 100fold better; it's quick, it takes crisp and clear pictures, and comes with image enhancements, it's easy to use, and there are so many options within the camera application.
    - I was able to transfer my texts, calender, contacts, and memos from OS7 to OS10
    - I love being able to see my calender events on the 'lock screen'
    - the HUB is quite a cool feature that consolidates many things
    - call quality is great!
    - the virtual keyboard is the best out there
    - the 'sleep mode' screen is really awesome- the one that shows the clock, and alarm settings
    - cool little features like when you want to power off the phone, and it prompts you to hold down the power button for 3 seconds
    - NOT HAVING TO DO A BAT PULL EVERY TIME YOU DOWNLOADED A NEW APP!
    - being able to folder up items on the home screen
    - media sharing!!! connecting to a TV or PC or other DLNA supported devices
    *this list isn't a fully extensive list, but these are the things I could think of right away*
    Concerns/not so good things/problems/things I actually miss from OS7:
    - Physical keyboard (YES, I know- the Q10 will be coming out soon... anyone know an official AT&T date???)
    - back button and trackball/pad (that was blackberry classic!!)
    - being able to determine how long the vibrate for text/bbm/emails/phone calls/etc
    - APPS, APPS, APPS.... I just don't understand why so many apps from OS7 aren't there!! (BBuzz, Skype, Point, Shazam, Google Maps [not the blackberry version, but the regular google maps], and BBVA Compass Bank mobile banking were the ones that I HAD, but no longer would have on the Z10) <-- when developers ask what apps people want, well... simple.. GO LOOK AT WHAT iPhone IS DOING!
    - facebook SUCKS on the new OS, and, well, it sucked on OS7 too, which is why I only used the 'mobile site'... now the BB10 mobile site sucks!! :/// I've only been able to check facebook from my computer except when I get updates!
    - ACTIVE FRAMES!! WTF is that??? I had to purchase an LED/vibrate notifications app, but it only works if it's running in the active frames........ hate that... with a passion
    - phone contacts and facebook contacts are merged and i hate that too!!! Ive tried all different ways to no avail to get that option off
    - text messages, BBM, contacts, and 'reminders' lag
    - the HUB and having everything consolidated... not a fan of that at all. I want email with email, texts with texts, and facebook with facebook. Maybe I'm paranoid, but consolidation scares me
    - battery life is NOT very good, even though they tout the battery being the biggest yet
    - I miss the way photos were categorized with BB7, and the whole media application was better on 7
    - what happened to voice notes and voice notes recorder??
    - I wish the 'memo pad' was back instead of it being called 'reminders' on BB10
    - I feel like BB7 was just easier to use then BB10
    - gestures, albeit being an awesome feature, is really hard to get used to. I want the back button and trackpad back!! made life SO much easier
    *this too isn't a fully extensive list, BUT, because of most of these things, I am returning the Z10 tomorrow.*
    I wish Blackberry would contact me and talk with me about the good/bad/neg/pos things about the new Z10!! There are some amazing updates and features, but I feel BB may have overreached a bit on a few things.
    Phew! I just needed to vent and get all of that out there.
    Let me end by saying that Blackberry has surly come around and made a dramatic turn around in the way they build phones. The phone itself is amazing, and there are great things about it. Unfortunately, MY cons have outweighed the pros right now- I just hope things get even better. BLACKBERRY- CONTACT ME AND TALK WITH ME....
    Until next time, I hope you BBers have a fantastic week!!

  • Bug list/feature observations for BB10 on Z10

    BUG LIST/FEATURE OBSERVATIONS - Z10/BB10:
    1. CRITICAL granular control of notifcations/alerts e.g. a different sound/volume/vibration per mailbox or alert type has been completely removed in BB10 and needs to be reinstated as an urgency
    2. support for BBM and Calendar in Landscape mode is missing. A workaround for BBM can be found via the Hub, not the BBM icon.
    3. the sound alert for a text message sometimes doesn't play. It seems to vibrate okay, but every 5th or so text message, it doesn't play the alert sound.
    4. CRITICAL if you set the display format for your emails to 'conversation style' (so that messages on the same thread are grouped - very helpful) but a folder which one of the messages is in isn't synced, then fresh inbox replies to that chain won't get shown to you in the Hub. It transpires that /GOOGLEMAIL/SENT ITEMS is a sub folder that's affected by this. It means any chain you reply to using your Blackberry, subsequent replies will not be displayed in the Hub. "Solution" is to disable 'conversation style' for thread display.
    5. WhatsApp, Bloomberg Mobile (not the terminal login App) and BeBuzz should be top App conversion targets.
    6. when you click the Text Messages icon it should take you to your text messages, not the Hub (which is what happens if you have an email open).
    7. the lock screen currently has just one icon for emails - ALL emails, regardless of mailbox. It has a fairly generic number for unread messages in ALL of the boxes combined e.g. "200 emails" - this needs to be split our per mailbox.
    8. opening a tenth App closes a previously opened App. It should ask you before closing the other App as it's a pain if the App it kills is Skype, Voice, Maps etc
    9. the current battery icon is too small to tell the difference between 30% and 15% (for example) - touching it should display the %, or something similar.
    10. the screen rotation can be extremely slow. Often you can count 1.. 2.. 3.. 4 before the screen switches orientation. Given how often you'll switch between orientations during use, it quickly gets annoying. 
    11. when the screen finally rotates (see point 10) the position your cursor was in in the previous orientation is lost
    12. it's not quick to put a question/exclamation mark into text. Fine, have a sub menu for general punctuation - but not these extremely common marks (which is exactly why comma and full-stop (period) are full-time keys)
    13. the super-useful "delete from device OR delete from device & server" has been removed entirely!
    14. using the browser in Landscape mode means "open in new tab" is in a sub-menu. As it's one of the most used features in any browser, and unlike Apple iOS you can't just hold a press to activate 'open in new tab', it really slows you down.
    15. sometimes numbers are included in the on-screen keyboard, sometimes not. Can they be made permanent?
    16. twice now my 'enter password to unlock' screen has appeared without the keyboard, meaning I couldn't enter my password. About 2 times out of 200, or 1%
    17. new messages - have some small icons in the status bar at the top of the screen rather than require a swipe UP&RIGHT to see the Hub
    18. in the Hub, the icons for each message don't show if the message was successfully sent. To check if an email/text was sent okay, you have to go into the message (2 levels)
    19. you STILL can't see when a text message you received was actually sent by the other party. Quite a basic function.
    20. you STILL can't swap email accounts when forwarding a message
    21. Calendar reminders often don't trigger the red LED. In fact, the LED is generally pretty inconsistent, often not flashing, or flashing only for a short while.
    22. the device supplied ring tones/alert tones are pretty terrible and you cannot set variable volume levels (see point 1).
    23. you can select .mid files for your ringtone even though these aren't compatible (when someone calls, your phone will be silent).
    24. there's an awkward 3 second pause between clicking Send and a text message actually sending. Why awkward? Because you then have to wait/waste 3 seconds waiting to see if your click was registered, and if the message was sent.
    25. GMAIL - boring standard message in the Inbox, no labels or anything funky - Universal Search won't find it if it's more than 1 WEEK old?
    26. The power-user controls for Universal Search seem to have vanished? Indexing, Extended Search etc? All you can choose now is "source"?
    27. Weird one this. The phone stopped ringing! Checked and double-checked all Notification settings, even did a reboot but nope, phone will not ring for an incoming call! A fresh reboot finally fixed it - I was using a 206kb mp3 which may or may not be relevant
    28. I'd love to know why G Maps is missing (assume aggressive move from Google?)
    29. it's sometimes tricky to clear Missed Calls. I think you might have to go into the Missed Calls menu and then sub menu? Seems to be more effort than it should be - previously you just clicked the Dial button once to view and presto, missed call indicator cleared. Hardly a huge thing but then as with a lot on this list, it's all about saving a second here, a second there = a big saving over the day or week.
    30. Contentious I know, and certainly not a 'fault', but the charging points are gone so I can't get a desktop stand (ironic given the battery life is now more of an issue)
    31. when composing a text message you'd don't see the conversation history for that contact until you've sent the new message.
    Thanks
    edit: numbering

    CRITICAL:  You cant control the image size for pictures when sending as attachemtns in email. In previous Os 6 & 7 you could select, "smaller, mide size, large or original". These options are gone.

  • Totally disappointed with Z10

    Dear RIM, unfortunately with the release of your new Blackberry Device (Z10) I noticed that you are not trying to satisfy your huge amount of customers, you are just trying to challenge other brands such as IPhone and Samsung, which is totally wrong because you are different, you were absolutely made for business and professionals, while the above mentioned brands were made for all ages.
    The way you are trying to enhance your product is completely wrong because you have made your device similar to others, which made you miss lots of feature that people were buying your device for.
    Your device used to be a great communication method, poor multimedia device, now became the opposite   
    I am a blackberry fan user, I have started using your products in 2009, started with Blackberry bold 9000, and end up with 9810 os7.1.  One month ago, I purchased the Z10, and I just started using it yesterday because I was scare to be disappointed, where after using your device for almost 30 hours I found the below
    External and hardware
    1-      The device does not have Menu button
    2-      No Telephone buttons (answer and ignore)
    3-      No back button
    4-      No Optical trackpad
    5-      No Silence button
    6-      No Convenience Key
    7-      Battery Life
     Internal and OS level
    1-      Not easy to go to the home screen, I have to swipe, while before I just press the Ignore button
    2-      Does not have notification bar
    3-      No Alert profiles/customer Alert profiles (very important)
    4-      No alerts for specific apps
    5-      No alerts for multiple email accounts
    6-      No easy access to Mobile network (3G/2G), wireless, Bluetooth and Hotspot
    7-      No menu option in the applications panel
    Cut
    Paste
    Copy
    Move
    Favorite
    Hide
    Settings
    Options
    8-      No email icons, I have always to brows up to the hub
    9-      No ability to show some special characters and Arabic letters
    10-   No option to have different vibrates for apps or alerts
    11-   You could not create a proper integration environment between your old devices and Z10
    12-   No copy and paste on the phone dia.
    13-   Call logs cannot be collapse except within the same period of time
    14-   Network coverage is low
    15-   Calls functionality is bad (No redial if the call cannot be proceed)
    16-   No delivery report after sending a text massage
    17-   Device will be security locked even during calls
    18-   Bit hard to switch language typing
    19-   Alerts and ring tones are too low and there is no much available
    20-   Ability to send PIN messages
    Applications  (Blackberry Messenger)
    1-      Cannot Collapse the categories or hide the contacts under the categories  
    2-      No confirmation alert or discard when modifying profiles or refresh to original (Either own or contact)
    3-      Cannot add my PIN for testing purposes
    4-      No select all when broadcasting a massage
    5-      Copy a massage and past, will result in pasting the massage with the sender name
    6-      Not showing special characters in contacts names
    7-      No zoom out when adding display picture
    8-      Cannot send a picture that was taken be screen capture except through the gallery media
    Please note all the above features used to be in the old OS versions, and I am not asking you for something new.
    Three of my friends have already switched back to their old devices, and today after I submit this  
    Please RIM if you cannot add the above features, just produce new products similar to 9810,9900
    finally excuse my english

    I totally disagree. As with anything new there is a steep learning curve. For the consumer, and for the company. Obviously BB is willing to listen to the consumer and add features with updates. Together we can develop this to be an even better device then it already is. I think the New Z10 is fantastic and can hardly wait for the Q10 to come out (most of my friend's are waiting for it). I was also waiting for the Q10 but decided to take the plunge and act on the Z10. Am I ever happy I did. Keep up the good work guys. I look forward to all the new updates. And for bigger and better things to come.

  • Z10 GREAT PHONE, BUT THEY HAVE TO IMPROVE THE FOLLOWING:

    Soy un Blackberrista y apoyo la marca y sus productos. tengo un Z10 desere hace 4 dias y Blackberry debe MEJORAR / SOLUCIONAR lo siguiente: (OJALA ALGUIEN QUE PUEDA TENER POSIBILIDAD DE CAMBIOS TECNICOS EN SOFTWARE, LEA ESTO)
    1- No puedo hacer llamadas desde la pantalla del BBM. Si alguien ha enviado mensaje y tengo un Chat, deberia poderse llamar desde alli. Tampoco existe en la pantalla de SMS ni de Mail. Al poder el dedo en pantalla para que despliegie la barra de menu a la derecha, NO ESTA LA OPCION "LLAMAR". ES NECESARIO Y UTIL QUE SE PONGA!!
    Tampoco se despliega "LLAMAR" al tocar ese contacto y usar el menu de abajo a la derecha (el de los 3 puntitos en vertical). ES NECESARIO Y UTIL QUE SE PONGA!!
    2- No se entiende bien la forma de "vincular" un contacto a un contacto de BBM. Deberia clarificarse la funcion.
    3-Cuando marco un numero de telefono, no aparece el numero telefonico al que llamo en la pantalla sino solo el nombre del contacto. Es muy util saber a que numero de todos los de su tarjeta de contacto, le estoy llamando.
    4-En el historial de llamadas, deberian aparecer las llamadas entrantes y salientes, perdidas o no, en una sola oportunidad. Si alguien me ha llamado 4 veces y lo he llamado 3, por ejemplo, no deberia aparecer 4 veces en pantalla sino solo 1. Al tocar dicho contacto es cuando deberia desplegarse las 4 llamadas y las 3 realizadas. Ese problema existe tanto en la pestaña de llamadas Perdidas, como en la pestaña Todas.
    5-la BATERIA !. la BATERIA!!! NO DURA NADA, SIMPLEMENTE ASI! NADA.!  y SE CALIENTA!!
    6- Definitivamente debe mejorarse la sincronizacion de contactos de un dispositivo del software 7 al 10. La mayoria de mis contactos no se transfirieron, ni al hacerlo a traves de Blackberry Link. Y trate de restaurar una copia de los contactos desde Blackberry Protect de mi antiguo dispositivo al Z10, y nada. Ahora me llaman y no se quien es. DEBE BUSCARSE LA FORMA DE ARREGLARLO.
    7- la forma de silenciar rapidamente el telefono, no existe. La persiana negra(con la pequeña cama y la luna) que se baja para poner en stnad by el telefono y no entren llamadas o notificaciones, solo se despliega desde la pantalla inicial (pero teneindo cuidado de no abrirla completa, pues sino no baja la persiana sino el menu de opciones de configuracion, bloqueo de rotacion y otros) ESTO DEBE MEJORARSE como en el 9360 que con apretar la tecla Q, se cambiaba al instante a "vibrar". ESO ES SUPER UTIL Y DEBE BUSCARSE LA FORMA DE ARREGLARLO.

    I am a Blackberry fan and support the brand and its products. I have a Z10 Blackberry since 4 days and BLACKBERRY should IMPROVE / SOLVE the following: (HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF TECHNICAL CHANGE IN PROGRAM, READ THIS)
    1 - I can not make calls from the BBM screen. If someone has sent message and I have a chat, you should be able to call from there. Nor is there on the screen for SMS or Mail To power your finger on screen to despliegie the menu bar on the right, NOT THE OPTION "CALL". YOU SHOULD INCLUDE IT AND IS USEFUL!
    Nor displays "CALL" by touching the contact and use the menu below to the right (the 3 vertical dots). YOU SHOULD INCLUDE IT !
    2 - not well understood how to "link" a contact to a BBM contact. Function should be clarified.
    3-When setting a phone number, do not see the phone number that I call on the screen but only the contact name. It is very useful to know what number of all of your contact card, I'm calling.
    4-In the call history, should show incoming and outgoing, missed or not, on a single occasion. If someone has called me 4 times and I've called 3, for example, IT DOES NOT HAVE to appears 4 times on screen but only 1. Touching the contact is when should deploy the 4 calls and 3 performed. This problem exists in the Missed Calls tab, including the All tab.
    5-the BATTERY!. the BATTERY!  NOTHING LASTS NO, JUST SO! NOTHING.! and HEATED!!
    6 - You should definitely improve contact sync software device 7 to 10. Most of my contacts are not transferred, nor to do it through Blackberry Link. And try to restore a backup of contacts from Blackberry Protect from my old device to the Z10, and nothing. Now if someone call me and do not know who is. FIND A WAY TO FIX IT!!.
    7 - a faster way to silence the phone, does not exist. The black shade (with the small bed and the moon) which lowers to put in stand by the phone and incoming calls and notifications, only unfolds from the initial screen (but careful not to open it  complete, since it does not lower the blind but the menu with configuration options, rotation lock, etc.) THIS MUST BE IMPROVED as in 9360 with Q key press is instantly changed to "vibrate". SUPER USEFUL AND YOU SHOULD FIND A WAY TO FIX IT .
    Regards
    José Armando Sosa

    Would like to add the following:
    1.  Why not make it so that when you open your landing screen and you show live, text msg, live emails, etc that you can touch the icon from that screen and go directly to text msgs, emails, etc. 
    2.  Since the Hub is the core of this system why not make so that you can always go back to the hub with one touch no matter where you are. 
    3. Lastly for us reading challanged older folks please when trying to read small emails that you are able to enlarge and automatically reformat to fit the screen as earlier version of BB did. 
    Overall enjoying  the phone , being my first full touch screen , but seem there are some very simple things that could be changed to make the experiance more user friendly. 

  • Z10 Crashes - How Do I Fix?

    This is my first time using the blackberry forum so I appologize if this topic is already posted and just don't know how to locate the answer.
    A month or two ago my Z10 auto-updated to the 10.3.1.1779 update and now my phone works like junk.
    It crashed any time I open any social media app, any type of game, and when I try to use the Maps GPS. It crashes 75% of the time when I try to use the browser to do a search as well.
    It no longer allows me to properly answer a phone call so I Always miss phone calls. When I try to slide to answer button. It just keeps ringing or vibrating and doesn't actually answer the call. The screen goes black and eventually it just goes to voice mail.
    Every time something crashes. The phone freezes for about 5 minutes. Even if I take the battery out the phone is still frozen!
    This NEVER happened before this most recent update. I have deleted more than 50% of my apps to"clear up space" but the device is still so full of memory from the update that (when my GPS does work) it tells me it can't work efficiently because my memory is too full.
    Does anyone know of or have suggestions on how this can be fixed without doing the following :
    * Without restoring it to factory settings
    * without taking it to Rogers to have them 'ship it out' for repairs.
    I have a lot of important info on this phone and can't afford to lose it or be without it.
    Thanks for the time and your help!

    Thanks for that help. It's unfortunate that when you spend hundreds of dollars on a phone you have to do manual things to repair it when updates should be improving your phones operations and not deteriorating them. I'm not a techy and have a hard time with that kind of stuff, the best solution sounds like it's time to finally kick blackberry to the curb and get on someone else's train.

    Hi @swn007! Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    You can't, you need to turn the phone in Silent/Vibrate Mode.

  • One thing I miss is being able to have different "vibrates' for different events.

    One thing I miss is being able to have different "vibrates' for different events. My BB 9700 allowed me to set short/medium/long lengths and one/two/three vibrates. It would be great to get these back on the BB Z10 again.

    All BB needs to do is offer the same notification functionality they had in OS 7.1 (I say 7.1 as they gave you control over the LED colour as well which was great), and it would be perfect.  Notifications on every other platform pail in comparison to what my 9900 could do (and unfortunately the Z10 is included in that list).
    I know it is a new OS but it isn't likey they don't know what they need to offer.
    Hopefully it comes sooner than later as this is one of those 'key' BlackBerry experiences which has been lost as part of the 'upgraded' OS.

  • BB Z10 on AT&T: LED Notificati​ons

    My BB Z10 on the AT&T network has historically used the LED light to notify me of emails, texts, BBMs, etc when in "Phone Calls Only" notifications mode. Recently it stopped using the LED light in Phone Calls Only mode and I cannot figure out why. After some googling, I discovered that several BB10 users have had this problem with their device from the beginning. I have owned my device for roughly 9 months and the aforementioned issue did not start until last week. Something I may have done different is switch notification profiles via the volume keys on the side, I don't normally do this and noticed the LED stopped working in "Phone Calls Only" mode after I did this. Does anyone have any idea how to get LED notifications for texts, BBMs, emails, etc to work in phone call only notifications mode? I want the phone to be silent and not-vibrate for anything but a phone call while blinking at me for new messages. I understand I can go through and customize the "Normal" notification setting to do this but I like to be able to quickly switch from "Normal" to "Phone Call Only." Just to remove all doubt, I haven't installed an unauthorized OS or side loaded anything onto the Z10. There were not changes to the OS (e.g. updates) that coincided with the start of the issue.

    OK, the 1st question would be....how exactly are you switching your "Notification profile" with the volume key??? For  me, that only increases / decreases the media volume regardless where I`m within "Notification"
    It is possible that something may have changed in your settings under "Phone calls only". So go to the "Notification" > "Mode: Phone calls only" and see if everything is turned "ON". If it is, then scroll down and tap on "Applications". You will see a list of "Core Applications". You`ll need to open the apps in question to see which one has its notifications turned "OFF" and turn it back "ON"

    My BB Z10 on the AT&T network has historically used the LED light to notify me of emails, texts, BBMs, etc when in "Phone Calls Only" notifications mode. Recently it stopped using the LED light in Phone Calls Only mode and I cannot figure out why. After some googling, I discovered that several BB10 users have had this problem with their device from the beginning. I have owned my device for roughly 9 months and the aforementioned issue did not start until last week. Something I may have done different is switch notification profiles via the volume keys on the side, I don't normally do this and noticed the LED stopped working in "Phone Calls Only" mode after I did this. Does anyone have any idea how to get LED notifications for texts, BBMs, emails, etc to work in phone call only notifications mode? I want the phone to be silent and not-vibrate for anything but a phone call while blinking at me for new messages. I understand I can go through and customize the "Normal" notification setting to do this but I like to be able to quickly switch from "Normal" to "Phone Call Only." Just to remove all doubt, I haven't installed an unauthorized OS or side loaded anything onto the Z10. There were not changes to the OS (e.g. updates) that coincided with the start of the issue.

  • No sound or Vibration for Incoming calls if phone is placed in pocket due to slight touch on the screen

    During incoming calls, a small touch on the screen will switch off the Sound and the vibration. This happens when the phone is placed inside the pant pockets. So i am missing many calls when i am travelling out. Any setting to remove this feature. 
    I tried using flip case but its spoiling the look of my Z10. So please help if there are any software setup 

    You can restore your phone to factory settings if you wish to see if it corrects your issue. Resetting to factory settings will wipe out all your data so you should save it first. To save all your stuff download and install BlackBerry Link on your computer from the link below. Resetting will not back-up the OS on your phone. Once you have downloaded and installed BlackBerry Link connect your phone to your computer and save your stuff. Once saved disconnect your phone from the computer.
    To reset your phone: tap the Settings App, scroll down and tap Security and Privacy, tap Security Wipe, tap the blank box and enter blackberry.
    Once Wiped reconnect your phone to your computer and install your stuff.

    No changes to settings were made.The Z10 has updated OS software.Rebooted a 100 times .Switced phone ON/OFF. .....NO JOY......PLEASE HELP!!!

    Do other sounds work -- music, for instance?  Also, have you set any custom notifications?
    Also, found this:  http://btsc.webapps.blackberry.com/btsc/viewdocume​nt.do?noCount=true&externalId=KB33694&sliceId=2&cm​...
    Some people report solving the issue by inserting and then removing headphone plug.  But if you are on 10.1, should not be happening.
