Default [Q] how to get the vibrate back

This is my first incursion into Android, so apologies if it's a basic question/has already been answered elsewhere (not that I could find it via search):

I have somehow lost the vibrate function

I have been installing quite a few apps & have rooted the phone, as befits my first contact with Android , also I conected via PC connect to the update service, and it downloaded an (outdated) update.

It may well have been while trying different profile managers - but despite enabling vibrate in the system menu, and in the profiles of the current profiles app I'm using (called Profiles), no joy.

All suggestions gratefully received

Tia.

responding to the onslaught of concerned posters

having got into the service menu, it seems the vibrate function is not working.

Doing some serious googling on the subject, this appears to be a RELATIVELY COMMON issue with this terminal - so be aware.

(mine has disappeared into SE technical service for a couple of weeks to get repaired)

What happened with yours? Did it get fixed? Anything we can do to fix it ourselves?

You can´t fix hardware failure with software update, mate.
