Ok, so I was just chilling on my bed, and I got a notification. It sounded SUPER funny, so I went to ringtones to test my vibration (in the vibration area), and it doesn’t work. I have to shake my phone back and fourth violently to get it to viberate. Help? If it doesnt vibrate, it just makes a very quiet tick noise
seems like the vibrator died.. a simple replacement should do it.. part here: iPhone 5/5s/SE (1st Gen) Vibrator guild here: iPhone 5 Vibrator Replacement
Check vibrate motor and give it a clean otherwise it’s an easy fix https://youtu.be/qS-dN0yf1ZQ
