I'm so sick of endless vibration........
 
Battery life is bad enough but waking up in the morning to find my TP has been sitting on the counter vibrating for hours drives me insane. Man I hope Sprint releases a new ROM sometime soon.

Vibrating from what? A notification or for no reason at all?

Email comes in and the notification vibration just sticks. You have to toggle between email and home screen to get it to stop.

hahah that sucks, you can disable vibrate in the Sounds and Notification settings when selecting New email message. Perhaps it'll stop you from going insane until Sprint releases a new ROM.

Yeah, I know others have had problems with it too. I'd kill it but I can't ever hear the ringer when it's in my pocket so I need it on to know I'm getting a call. I bet it happens once or twice a day so it's a crapshoot that it happens at night but when it does it really pisses me off. I know it can't be good for the phone to vibrate for 4-5 hours.

Are you running the stock rom, and have you tried a dreaded hard-reset? I've got the latest stock rom running, and have never had this problem happen. If you need it, you can get the latest shipped rom from this thread... Just my 2 cents. Hopefully it helps... :scratch:

I've never had that problem either, and you can disable the email vibrate notification as darkjedi mentioned in post 4 without affecting the incoming call vibrate notification.

Yep, stock ROM and I have zero software/modifications installed. I've hard reset the phone several times. I've got a questions for you guys with insurance through Sprint. Is there a deductible if the phone is only a few months old? I took it to a Sprint store a while back for my email crashing during a send and receive. Ultimately they decided that it needed to be replaced but wanted $55 (I think) to do so. I didn't have the insurance and that was all they were offering. The phone was pretty much brand new at the time and there was no way in hell I was going to pay a dime for it. Now it doesn't seem like a bad option to me. So that brings me back to Sprint insurance, even if I had insurance would I have to pay a deductible anyway?

It depends on which type of coverage you pay for. If you pay for the 7$/mo plan called Total Equipment Protection (TEP), this seems like a manufacturers defect so they would replace it for free. TEP actually consists of 2 plans however that you can opt to pay for individually, the Equipment Service and Repair Program (ESRP) and the Equipment Replacement Program (ERP). ERP is the one handled by Asurion and typically referred to as insurance. THis is the program that requires the deductible, however covers absolutely anything that can happen to your phone, including losing it or have it eaten by your lawnmower. ESRP is typically referred to as the extended warranty, where it covers things that can go wrong with the function of the phone as long as it doesn't seem you do anything egregious with your phone. Replacements carried out under this program are free provided you pay a monthly fee for the service.
