Repair - Galaxy NoteLast update: Sat Jan 10 23:04:54 2026
My Galaxy Note keeps on vibrating every 2 seconds Lucky me, I just bought last week a new and nice Galaxy J (knock off version of the Galaxy S5), but still. In a middle of a game, screen turns off, and the phone vibrates every 2 seconds. Charger plugged, unplugged, with battery, without battery, no change: black screen and reboots every 2 seconds.Quick check on internet, it's a known disease of the recent Samsung phones: the power button stays stuck. You have to open your phone and replace the tact switch... if you have american model. Being in Japan I have the pleasure to own a model that includes TV and for the which the tact switch is repaced by a cheapest kapton sandwich switch (see the pictures). A few other gentleman had the same problem and explained here hteir solution:
