Re: phantom phone vibration
 

Well i don't feel the vibrations but i've heard them! And noone there so i thought i was mental. However, i have a new strategy, if feeling phantom vibrations is actually happening scientifically, then i will start wearing my cell phone in a different body region for sure.

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

haha yeah this happens to me a lot. makes me feel so insecure, like i'm so desperate to answer any phone call i get that i'll try and answer the phone even when it's not ringing...

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

i have felt AND heard phantom vibrations also..

proof of pavlov's dog and that we are more related to dogs and animals in terms of instincts than we would like to think.

This happens to me all the time. Of course, when my phone is really vibrating I somehow only notice it about 50% of the time.

Ditto. I would falsely hear the ringer all the time too (especially when water was running nearby, for some reason) until I got a newfangled phone and started using mp3's as ringtones.

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

I think this is our subconscious desperately begging someone to call us. In any case, I'm sure we had a long thread on this before.

Edit--- oh it's been linked. Cheers.

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

a) This happens to me all the time.
b) Even moreso when I am driving because I will have my phone in my left side pocket, which sometimes will touch the door while im driving. If I am listening to music loudly the door will have a little vibration and make my paranoia even worse.

This happens to me a lot. Even when I'm not carrying my phone.

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

when i first got a pager 100 years ago it scared the [censored] outa me when it went off (on vibrate).

now i cant tell when my phone rings and i get phantom vibrated all the time.

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

i got a moto q and i usually keep it in a cargo pocket, blazer pocket at work or in my bag. (beat: can't carry it in my regular pocket, keyboard gets mashed and i accidentally send killa text messages that say jasdfjasdgjkasgjklasdgfjklsadjkl.)

so this doesn't happen to me anymore. used to happen a bit when i had a flip phone, but not now.

Huh? I don't think so... are you saying you think phantom rings are people using some sort of instinct to sense the phone call before it comes in? If so you are wrong...

No. I'm saying there's something about the beginning of a phone call received on our phones that we key into. Whether that be a certain sensation or a music note, our minds instantly expect there to be a phone call and thus we get the phantom phone vibration. I'm saying this is just how we work as human beings, and animals work this way too, hence Pavlov's dog.

Im pretty sure that there are no cues that precede the phatom vibrate, it just happens sometimes.

Re: phantom phone vibration
 

I always think i hear my phone vibrating when it never is and when someone is actually calling me i never hear it
