Xperia Z1 vibration stop working

After 2 days of use, the vibration of my Z1 stopped working. Is it hardware problem?

You can also try to repair it with PCC just in case

  • Error Message: Unfortunately Xperia Home has stopped working

    I have had my Z3 for nearly 3 weeks now and until this morning all was working well - loved the phone! 
    2 things happened this morning (may be connected).
    On first trying to use the phone (from it being asleep overnight) the screen froze and it would do nothing.  I left it a few minutes (so it went back to sleep again) and all appeared then to be fine.  I did a restart.
    A little later (no more than 90mins) I found the phone to be showing an error message - Unfortunately Xperia Home has stopped working - (OK).   On clicking OK, message appeared again, and again and again. I tried rebooting the phone and hoped this would clear the error. It didn't.  I was, however, by a very round about route able to get on-line. 
    Swipe down to quick settings
    Settings
    Change home screen to simple
    Error message still came up but would go once I clicked OK. I managed to get online and did a search for the error - found this thread:
    http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-J/Unfortunately-Xperia-Home-has-stopped-Working/td-p/720607 
    I had a system update that had downloaded and was ready to install, so before trying to clear all the data on xperia home (as suggested in the thread - Apps - All - Xperia Home - clear data) I ran the update.  This didn't clear the error - Xperia home has stopped working. 
    So, I followed the instructions on the thread above ie, all apps, xperia home, clear data. (It doesn't actually clear all the data, your accounts, passwords etc are all left intact. However, it does clear your home screens of all settings and personalisation (although it didn't change my background).  
    Touch wood, the phone now seems to be OK (having reset my home screens.
    Having been an xperia user for a number of years (I loved my Z and had no problems with it and actually delayed upgrading) I am extremely disappointed that this flagship phone should start giving error messages such as this, particularly after only 3 weeks of use.  I only hope that this is the last time I see this message!
    At least am tech savvy enough to have been able to circumvent the error, get online, find a solution quickly and sort the problem out - all done in the space of 40mins on the way to work!!   
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Does Sony have any answers as to why this has occurred?
    Hope this all makes sense!!

  • Smartwatch 2 vibration stopped working

    Hello,
    suddnly today my smartwatch 2 vibration stopped working.
    I tried to turn it on and off in the smartwatch settings with no success.
    Tried also to reset it via the smartwatch settings...
    It does not vibrate anymore. (even when I turn the smartwatch on or off).
    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Amit Moran

    Inside any device that has the ability to vibrate is a small motor with a half circle metal weight - So if it has stopped vibrating then this is probably a hardware fault either the motor has stopped working or communication to the motor has failed so your only option would be to take it back to the place of purchase or visit a Sony service centre

  • N97 mini - vibration stopped working!

    hi!
    i need help ,
    since friday the vibration of my n97 mini stopped working !
    its really wierd , not vibrating anymore when i touch the screen and when i receivce calls
    sometimes it works for a min but then stops again.
    i know i shuold take it to a lab but im looking for a way to try and solve this myself.
    in teh settings everything is fine and in order.
    waiting for help!
    thank you!!!

    try the following
    NOTE: In front of the hash key ( #) there is also a STAR key that people often miss and state that the code does not work.
    1.. *#7780# - Restore factory settings - resets all the settings to the default ( you will not lose any data) Make sure you back up your data as you will lose all of it when you perform option 2 or 3 on this list. The default code for ALL operations listed here is 12345.
    2.*#7370# - Reformat your phone (out of the box, tho keep in mind that most newer nokia phones at least n series, e series and s60 based phones have udp - user data preservation so not ALL data may be lost. still it is a good idea to always do a back up of your stuff.)3. This you perform as a last resort. Nothing else is working.If the phone is not showing any activity, proceed with hard formatting , turn off your phone, hold the following buttons while pressing the power button. (the default code is 12345)
    3. hard reset - hold the following buttons * (star key), 3 (number button) and talk/green key. turn on the phone and do not release those buttons until you see the Nokia boot up screen. once you feel the phone power up you can let go off the power button while still holding all three buttons ( for Nokia 5800XM - use the following buttons to do a hard reset, /GREEN/RED/CAMERA keys pressed all at once on power up. this will only work on 5800's that have firmware version 20... and up. ) For Nokia N97 (unofficial version but works) is SHIFT /SPACE BAR / BACKSPACE while holding the power button. Again do not let go until you see the handshake screen.
    If these codes are not working the only thing for you to do is contact your Nokia Care Center/Service for assistance.
    If  i have helped at all a click on the white star below would be nice thanks.

  • Vibration stopped working

    Hi all,
    yesterday the vibration finction on my iPhone 3G stopped working. It won't engage via the settings menu or the silence switch. I tried a reboot and full clean restore to no avail. The device itself never exhibited any problems whatsoever and it has never been dropped - vibration just stopped working.
    Has anyone else experienced this? What are my options now since the phone is 15 months old?
    Many thanks.

    When you did the restore to your iPhone did you set it up as a new phone or did you restore from backup? if you set it up as new it could possibly be a hardware issue with the phone itself. If you restored from a previous backup you can try restoring again and setting up the iPhone as new. As far as your warranty goes, since you are at 15 months of owning it, did you purchase the Applecare Protection Plan? If so you should be covered by warranty and have it looked at by a Apple Store or can call Apple's technical support for the iPhone at 1-800-694-7466.

  • 3g | 8gb | uk - Vibration stopped working

    Hello all.
    first i shall give my details of the phone:
    iPhone 8gb > 3G > on O2 (UK) i bought it in late september. its is as factory so not jailbroke, only addition is a few apps from itunes from factory and some custom ringtones i made.
    recently at work i have been putting my phone onto silent via the rocker switch as it's not a good look to have a song blaring out when dealing with the public on duty.
    anyways, the vibrate feature has broken, it worked, im sure before the latest update, i had totally forgot about it not working until a few days back when i had a heap of SMS messages and voice mails and missed calls, all cause it didn't vibrate.
    it seems a little strange how it works one moment not the next.
    before we suggest settings and buttons, every thing is set so it should vibe on silent mode as well as standard.
    i even tried a reset of settings (not erasing data) and restarting via the home and power buttons. all to no remedy.
    can anyone help?

    many thanks!

    Ur contacts are saved to your Address Book whenever you sync ur iPhone with iTunes... so yes, u could get them back...
    I see in ur last post that u mention that after the resets, the phone still doesn't vibrate, I'm afraid it's a hardware issue and yes ur only choice is to take it to be checked and possibly replaced.
    Once u get ur iPhone repaired or replaced, plug it and sync with iTunes and u'll get all ur contacts back...
    Cheers.

  • IPhone 4 Vibrate NOT WORKING

  • IPhone 4S vibrate not working but...

    Okay so a day ago my vibrate stopped working I'm still in warranty and apparently I can get it replaced for free. The thing is... My phone is shattered on the front and half on back. On the front glass fell out along with home button. This was over a month ago... Vibrate still worked til a day ago. Would apple still replace for free? I mean... Everything works but vibrate and it's really annoying. :\ please help!!!

    No it would not be replaced for free. Applecare Protection PLUS program (which can only be purchased in your first 30 days of buying your iphone) does cover accidental damage, but its still not a free replacement. (I believe) its $49 then but I dont have my data infront of me to say for sure.
    In general, repairs for a 4s run about $199.

  • HT201401 Vibrate function stopped working! Help!!

    Hi pokestate73.
    Have you tried resetting the iPhone? Hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button until the Power Off slide screen appears, disappears, and then the Apple logo appears. Then let go of the buttons.
    If that doesn't work, you'll need to try restoring the iPhone in iTunes.
    If you've already tried these steps, you may need to make an appointment at your local Genius Bar. The vibration mechanism may have died.
