[Q] Phone vibrates during calls - why and how to stop it?

[Linkinsoldier]

Hi,

as the title already says, my phone vibrates during calls. It happens about 1 time per minute (but doesnt seem to be a minute counter!) and i've got no Idea, why this keeps happening!

Do you have the same effect (vibrating) as i do?
What is this "feature" about?
How can i stop it from happening?

Thank you,
Linkin

till now I found three vibration settings used for different apps / situations etc, for example message notification vibration, soft key feedback etc-

To turn off Notification vibrate: Messaging > Menu key > Settings > Untick Notification vibration

To turn off Ringtone vibrate: Settings > Sound > Vibrate > Never

To turn off the vibrating when tapping the screen: Settings > Sound > Untick Haptic Feedback

Thanks.

I found these three settings too but none of them explains why it vibrates during calls... Only explanations I could think of is that I touch the screen by mistake...

Does anyone have similar behavior of his phone and can contribute to this?

if the proximity sensor working the screen should turn off when your face is near, therefore no accident touching the screen. could it be the other buttons being touched by accident? the volume buttons, camera, home, back, and menu buttons...

Its definitely not the camera or volume button but I kepp it under surveillance... Maybe i'm touching the back or menu key by accident...

Thanks for the answers!

Bzzz

hehe I've tried something a little more funky: I had a call a few days ago, and the vibrator started buzzing as soon as i drew the phone close to my face and the closer the harder it buzzed

I had to hold the phone at 2-4 centimeters to be able to hear what was being said over the vibrator

It haven't happened again, but then I've also "repaired" the phone with SEUS to see if that helped with receiving calls in the first place(screen didn't respond on several calls).

I have had this happen a few times too, no idea what it is though?! lol

It keeps happening sometimes, but not as much as before... I guess it was related to touching the softkeys!

I changed haptic feedback to off and it doesnt viabrate at all now

Mhm but this indicates touching the Display and NOT thouching the soft keys, right?

Haptic feedback includes the capacitive buttons.
