TP has stopped vibrating

My Touch Pro as of this morning has stopped vibrating. When it's set to vibrate it won't vibrate and just acts as if it's in silent mode but it does show that it's set to vibrate. I've tried soft resets, and since I have a Sprint TP on the VZW network, I'm trying to avoid the hard reset.

I'm thinking this is hardware related and I need a new phone. However, I purchased it brand new off eBay (30% cashback - only reason I did) so I would I go about getting a new phone if I need to. I did purchase the SquareTrade warranty just in case.

Re: TP has stopped vibrating

I have this same problem on my Sprint Diamond - Help would be great.

Maybe a registry reset value or something.

Nothing vibrates, calls, texts, even games, like Teeter.

Re: TP has stopped vibrating

I had the same problem, but it was my own stupidity. In Sounds and Notifications, I had unchecked Programs and Notifications (alarms, reminders). I rechecked both and it all worked again.

Re: TP has stopped vibrating

Trying to avoid a hard reset because it's a Sprint TP on Verizon. I'd prefer not to redo all that especially if it won't fix the issue. Glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue though.

Re: TP has stopped vibrating

Since the phone will need to be replaced, how would I go about it since I bought it on eBay and my provider is Verizon but I'm rocking a Sprint TP. The phone is still under HTC warranty.

Re: TP has stopped vibrating

Well I did a hard reset and the problem is still there. I talked to HTC Tech support and the phone has to be sent in for repair. Even though I'm not a Sprint customer, there's no way Sprint would actually give me a new phone would they? I'd prefer not to wait forever for them to repair my phone, I guess I could try and ask for a new one.

Re: TP has stopped vibrating

I'm wondering if i should do a hard reset, my phone will not vibrate anymore either. I'm going to be mad if the hard reset and it doesn't work, because i don't feel like loading them up again. I can't make it to sprint till the weekend, i was hoping there was a fix, but up above even a hard reset didn't work.
