My phone worked normally yesterday but when I woke up today and opened snapchat I noticed that a vibration would go off every 2 seconds. I tried restarting it but it didn't work. I did however notice that whenever it would vibrate, the symbol of my locations would turn on and then off. I tried turning off the locations but it still vibrates. It's very annoying and I thought it was only on snapchat but then sometimes when I would scroll through my phone it would vibrate. I have a Samsung galaxy s21

Cheers user7628! 👍

 

For all those affected: Might be good if we can send some software logs on this one to the developers if you're able to.

 

As soon as you can after the issue occurs (within 15 minutes is best):

 

Samsung Members > Support > Send feedback > Error Reports > [select error type] > choose frequency of issue, and write an accurate and good description (and attach any screenshots/pictures/videos showing the issue if you want/are able to) > tick ‘Send system log data’ > Send (the > icon on the top right).

 

(Or, for a shortcut: Long-press the Samsung Members icon on the Apps screen, and select 'Error reports' from the dropdown menu, and follow the steps from there.)

 

That will send that report and log files for the Samsung developers to analyse.

 

Further guidance on how to send error reports here if you need it: https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/mobile-apps-services/samsung-members-app-how-to-send-an-error-re...

Figured it out with the help of an another so on samsung settings for my S22 ultra something involving my cards on my phone case physical cards was triggering something so, i went into settings and searched "Contactless" = 2 results: Contactless Payments and "NFC and Contactless Payments Toggle Option" Turned this off and now my cards is back in my phone and it is not spamming me now thank heaven.
Note: NFC is responsible for
"Near Field Communication (NFC) technology allows users to make secure transactions, exchange digital content, and connect electronic devices with a touch. NFC transmissions are short range (from a touch to a few centimetres) and require the devices to be in close proximity."

Mines been doing this since Monday too. Thank you for this as it seems to have stopped. I thought my phone had been cloned or something 😂

It's mental how I've had my cards in the back of my phone for well over a year now and I've never experienced an issue. I have nowhere else to keep my cards as I just loose them lol so nfc is turned off until a fix is found. Did the patch update today but it hasn't fixed the issue.

This indeed solved the problem for me! After the update everything worked fine, but yesterday I had to take out my drivers licence. I put it back differt than what I normally do, and my phone started vibrating. Every time I turned it on it vibrated (even on silent mode) and in snapchat it would do so every 2-3 seconds.

Rotating my drivers licence with the NFC chip facing the charger port and moving it slightly downwards so it stopped trying to scan it and indeed the vibrations stopped as well!
