View Full Version : Phone not vibrating when on vibrate!

I have noticed that for some reason when I put the switch into vibrate mode my phone no longer vibrates when I receive a call. I have tried modifying pretty much every setting there is to modify and its really odd because my phone will vibrate to let me know when I have missed the call but not when the call is actually happening.

Now I am certainly not a novice in the ways of windows mobile phones (this is phone number 40 and WinMo number 21) but I have no idea what is wrong. Is anyone else experiencing this glitch or am I all alone?

Working perfect for me.

Have you tried doing a Hard Rest (after backing up using the included Sprite backup software)???

If you have tried all settings, resting to factory would be my next step.

Good Luck.

In all my various installing and uninstalling believe I have done about 4-5 hard resets and backups with sprite. Its a no go.

If this is the case you may have a broken device. Does it vibrate AT ALL? I would REALLY start with a hard reset (don't restore a backup) and see if that fixes it.

to sum it up:
a hard reset(with the sim card inserted where the palm customization scripts ran through and the treo was soft reset in that proces twice) fixed it for me
