Hello,

i can't get the mobileVibrate to work.
Can anyone confirm if it's working at all?

I tested on a el cheapo Wiko "Jerry" and an older but still much better and faster then the Wiko, a Samsung Galaxy S2 that runs on Android 7.1.2
I save the APK with minumum Android 4.1 Thanks for any help.

Do the phones vibrate when your app isn't running, like when the system sound settings are set to vibrate only? Also, some devices don't support vibration. My Nexus 7 tablet doesn't have it.

Is the Galaxy really running Android 7? That's the latest OS and I'd be surprised if it were on such an old phone. I don't think it will even work there.

Hi Jacque,

yes both phones do vibrate when for example sound is off.

And yes the Galaxy S2 is really running Android 7, although Android 6 did run a bit smoother. It's still faster than my Wiko Jerry.
I have LineageOS installed on the S2 and before that CyanogenMod but they quit. (stupido's, Google wanted to buy them out, now it's too late...)
On xda-developers.com you can read how to do it. But for Android 6 and 7 you have to do some extra on the S2, creating a bigger memory by formatting some things.
It could easy brick your phone when done wrong.
For Wiko Phones there is very minor support on it. No one's really interested. So that one runs the original firmware. At least until the 2 year warranty is over.

I see, thanks. I don't root my devices, due to the security risks.

If the problem isn't hardware then I'm out of ideas. You might want to submit a bug report and see what the team has to say.

Thank you, i will do that.
Perhaps they can confirm.

Ok i admit it myself.

i'm stupid

did not look further then my nose again

just forgot the Application Permission, waaaaaaaaaaaaahh.

Going to kick myself now

You are a brave and honest man. I won't mention the time I forgot to enable Internet permissions.

Pfeww!

Thanks Jacque
