Mine even does it on a regular recurring interval. Ill be reading a message or something and my thigh is still buzzing like I'm getting a call. Its actually pretty frustrating and i have to wonder if id known this was going to happen, would i have put my phone in a backpack or something else? Or down the front of your pants for permanent phantom sexy time.

I'm not a fan of news filled with jokes, so something like this is more relaxing

Not exclusive to phones, I get the same thing with things like hearing a doorbell as mine is not very loud I often assume I missed some thing. Its all about the fear of missing a potential important event. Your subconscious takes a better safe than sorry approach. Why anyone who claims to call themselves a scientist would assume this is solely linked to phones and assume the cause is just out of compulsive need to connect to social media obviously has and agenda.

I hate phones with every fiber of my being. "Oh cool, an obnoxious little screaming device that loudly demands my immediate attention at the whim of literally every person I know, regardless of whether I give a fuck about what they have to say or even if I like them or not. Brilliant, I was just thinking to myself that my days filled with dealing with shitty people for hours on end would be so much better with even *more* layers of social interaction. Goody gumdrops, christmas has come early." I was a very irritable teenager...

I played my PS3 a lot until like early this year my hands would shake when I sleep or try to sleep. I thought I was developing parkinson's so I was scared as shit. This happened for months until I one day decided to cut off the vibration in my controller and cut down on games in general. The shaking went from daily to weekly, to monthly to gone!

Loved that video! Very informative, interesting, and with such a talented, cool, beautiful host! I want to see more of Chastity!! What an awesome, strong, independent woman!!

Lol I was eating dinner and watching this I'm a rebel

YES she is back. I remember her from Tech Feed!!!!!

So its not the vibration caused between stretching fabrics such as jeans or friction between the layers of clothes? Cause when that happens i always repeat the movement i made when i felt it and find im usually bending my leg or getting up out of a chair etc when it happens. Does anyone else notice this?

Thanks,you calmed my worries Dnews.

I've wondered about this for a long time. I thought it must be in the mind. Interesting subject, for sure!

I experienced them years before I had a smart phone, back when I had an old flip phone... I never got txts or calls on it.

what about phantom cell phone rings? dont tell me its the same as this but I dont put my phone on silent

don't know if it counts, but i keep thinking my phone is vibrating due to a call, but these jeans i frequently wear makes it slide around my butt causing friction and a mild vibrating sensation that fools me to checking my phone.

I never liked enabling the vibration function of my phone so I don't get this feeling much. However I have 'phantom phone light' sightings, as I enabled LED notifications instead. I would suddenly think I saw my phone blinking and notifying me about a message when nothing actually happened.

I own two companies, employee people and have this has never happened to me, because I have never owned a cell phone and probably never will. I know people with smartphones who others have got mad at for not responding to their text quickly enough. That is a problem I will never have. Be important enough or have enough self-respect to not be a slave to your cellphone!

I talked to some people now who said they even hear *"Phantom Ringtones"* How common is that?

i dont feel them, i hear them. middle of the night, sound of phone vibrating from the drawer it gets chucked in. usually when im anxious about some workplace disaster im going to be asked to fix.

my ssamsung s4 vibrates when i touch it. and i let it go (like place it down) or just put it in my pocket

This all makes sense BUT I used to get them before I ever had a cell phone. I still get them and I don't think it's due to my phone Since only 2people ever text me and I keep my ringer on. I wonder why people might get them in a case like mine.

I've had phantom phone vibrations before, it was strange, but last week something even more strange happened to me: I felt my phone vibrate, I looked at it and I indeed got a whatsapp message, but I felt the vibration in my right pocket, when my phone was in my left pocket. Does anyone have any idea what could have been going on here??

I play video games a lot and the controllers vibrate frequently could that make phantom vibrations a cure more and I never get this on my old smart phone iPod touch iPad no where els only on my new one (iPhone 5c when I used to have an iPhone 4 this never happened

They're starting to become less and less frequent for me. So that's a good thing right? But I do "hear" the sound of my notifications a lot.

I remember when I couldn't afford to pay my cell bill, and I was without a phone for 3 months I still remember feeling phone vibrations but for the first 3 weeks or so, until I ignored them and I stopped feeling them .

Great voice!. Good vid.

Never noticed the phantoms. Sometimes I don't notice the real vibrations or message tones either.

This used to happen to me but now I usually keep my phone on silent and that solves the issue. I just check my phone every now and then to keep updated with my time and notifications.

I never even feel the vibration. When I check the time on my phone...missed 3 phone call, 2 text messages, and a bunch of notifications are looking at me like "REALLY? REEAAALLY???"

DNews, why do our bodies have muscle contractions and shiver/hurt (seemingly) at random times?

She doesn't know what she's on about I get phantom vibrations and they're not caused by an over attachment to my phone because I've not had a phone for over a year! Work that out? Usually comes at night it feels like there is a phone vibrating underneath the mattress I'm lay on! Its really strange.

I have Phantom Phone Vibrations 1-5 times every day, was annoying in the beginning because i took up the phone thinking someone was calling. But now i just put my hand over my pocket to feel if the phone is vibrating or not and i do it without thinking so it doesn't disturb me at all any longer... Weird how you can get usage to thinks like that!

I get those on occasion... I sometimes even swear I hear the phone ding or something.... A misinterpreted environmental noise, not a hallucination. I have had phantom vibrations while not carrying my phone as well... Slowly learning not to respond if I don't get both a ring and vibration.

I have phantom vibrations but I never have my phone on vibrate. Always silent. Explain that one.

I don't get phantom vibrations but sometimes i think someone just messaged me on Skype, I guess it is kind of the same thing

Could we get more of her?

I definitely felt Phantom vibrations before, but not very often

I notice phantom vibrations around once a month, and usually without my phone anywhere near me. Empty pockets, but still that buzzing on the side of my leg.

great host!

I once had notifications from facebook and it was three rings but when I reached to my pocket, my phone wasn't even there. I went to facebook later, and got 3 updates. YEAH! GOT THE POWER OF nothing...

...are you high? they gave the explaination given by the study. expectations of certain events makes our brains more likely to perceive them, usually by misinterpreting other stimuli like the feel of our clothing or muscles twitching/contracting. this is the honest way to cover it, scientific studies rarely/never give 100% conclusive, for certain,guaranteed results, some people either dont even watch the video then complain about it. or are HORRIBLE at interpreting what the video is saying.

cruuushhh and people believe Dnews without fact checking themselves. we used to think the world was flat, its not. Alot of stuff we are taught is most likely wrong

I'll get phantom vibrations every now and then, because my phone vibrates when I get Kik messages. I use Kik a lot, it's my main communication app. (For some reason, I use Kik more often than iMessage. It's weird.)

Fantom vibrations is annoying at first, but after maybe 10 times I learn how to tell when it's actually vibrating.

What about when your phone vibrates for no reason on a desk?

I have them at work all the time, but instead of it being my cell phone, its the work phone. I always think its ringing when its not! I think its because I hate talking on the phone, so when it rings it stresses me out...

This theory of muscle contractions doesn't make sense for me because my phone doesn't vibrate when I receive a text so I rarely get phantom vibrations.

There's something else at work because I'm not on my phone much or attached to it but ever since I started keeping a phone in my front pocket I occasionally will feel a small buzz type of twitch in my thigh where my phone usually rests against which is very similar to the buzz that my phone vibrates on....this happens when I'm not wearing my jeans and don't have the phone near me nor on my mind.

I'm on my phone a lot for work. however I only notice phantom vibes when I'm expecting a call or email that I'm either excited to get or worried about. rare occurrence for me.

I've always had my vibrate/sounds off but I still check it all the time

It seems to me that people who are introduced to cellphones later in life don't experience this. Everyone I've asked that is older then me at 26, has looked at me like I was crazy. But that's anicdotal because like I said that's everyone I've asked. I'd be interested in finding out if that is the common case.

i get the phantom vibrations all the time, but i also get when i feel it and it turns out to be a phantom, just to them have my phone go off. Like sensing it before it happens.

Last night I was studying in my room. I had like 3 phones in my room, my Samsung gear, desktop, laptop and a few other things in my room. While studying I felt like someone just called into phone in a silent mode. I looked around, but there was nothing, after like 1 minute I felt it again. Then again. It was the first time I ever felt it. I was really scared. I don't know why it happened. I checked everything, and I know none of my things vibrated.

I go on call every third week and get the vibration about 3 to 4 time during that week. When I am not on call I rarely get any.

A good way to overcome that phantom vibration is to over react. In example you get a phantom vibration tell your brain its happening every second but make sure to not check your phone. Your brain receives those pushes in your pockets or that slight breeze as a phantom vibration and because it is so used to it it is normal and the anxiety goes away to check your phone because everything is a phantom vibration to your brain.

I thought I was experiencing consistent phantom vibrations, but it turned out a muscle in my upper leg was periodically spasming creating a very real vibration.

sometimes my phone do vibrate i can see it when it lays on the table but it dosent recive any message

Ive had these alot,most recent i had it in the ball of my foot,it felt just like a phone vib and it did it for two days strait,ive also felt vibrations when my phone was not even with me

I never get them. All tho I rarely use my phone or social media. I usually talk to my friends over skype.

When i had a phone it happened about twice a month now that i no longer have one it doesnt happen anymore

it's not always phantoms it's getting a email or msg on some app, i have that always with my phone it won't show your email but it will vibrate.

never felt that ever

***** not everyone has the same experiences

I can't remember the last time I had a phantom vibration. I can remember, however, times when my, apparently very textured, shorts would slide down against the desk in front of me, due to gravity, and vibrate.

I do experience this quite a lot actually. I don't really mind them, though. What I don't like on the other hand is when I *don't* feel the vibration when it's actually vibrating. That happnes too often as well.

Hey DNews , got an idea for a new study. Are there certain personality types that are more prone to becoming extremists?

When I was in IT, I used to get phantom vibrations all the time - sometimes as often as 3-4 times a day. I left the field in November, and haven't had one since.

I get them now and then mostly at work, it always happens when my phone is not even in my pocket. :/

I get them any time I'm having lengthy conversations with friends. Happens probably once a week on average for me.

I don't get phantom vibrations, however sometimes I feel my phone in my pocket when I know it's not there even if I check I can still feel it.

wow! I experience this every day! I sleep with my phone on my bed and I think it vibrates but check it nothing to make it do so. even hear it ringing but it's not. it's so weird! just thought I was losing my mind. nope saw it on the news this morning.

I feel this almost everyday and hardly use my phone will go half a day without checking easy, and go days without talking to someone on it so that's wrong...

I've never had one, but I'm on my phone all the time. But then I'm not very in to social media.

Nope I haven't had phantom vibrations, mainly because I don't keep my phone in my pocket. I have however thought that the land-line was ringing and taken my earphones out or paused a video to find out it wasn't. Strangely there are certain songs at which it always happens at the same time during the song. So I guess that it's due to the notes that are played and if they sounds close enough to the ringtone of my phone then I panic and think the phone is ringing.

I don't get phantom vibrations cause no one calls or texts me anymore. :/

*What an amazing study.* -Fabricated by major phone companies at the behest of the NSA to convince everyone that their phones aren't vibrating randomly when their data is accessed for archiving purposes by the government.- *It's so cool and legit.*

Keeps happening when I'm out travelling somewhere. Whether the phone is there or not.

HOLEY MOLEY!! Helloooo Chastity!! Yowza!

i get them multiple times a day, but I don't have an unhealthy obsession with texting and I don't need the validation of having my status liked. I barely touch my phone, explain that!

Where I work we can't have our phones with us during work hours, so that explains why I don't get this.

I never had phantom phone vibration... I'm not too attach to my phone.. it pisses me off.. a lot..

Does anybody else think you hear your phone's text sound even when you don't have a text message? It happens to me all the time and it drives me crazy.

I felt this quite a few times so I did my own investigation, sometimes it was a muscle twitch and sometimes it was the clothes fibers in my pants slowly dragging across my chair or desk. Every time I felt it I tried to reproduce it, sometimes successfully. The funny part is I gave up my phone and now my brain ignores it instead of letting these interrupt me.

Weaning away for 30 minutes to an hour? Is it abnormal to be away from a phone 30 minutes to an hour?

I get these every day.

How do you Juke on madden 25?

She should do more vids! A great host.

I turned my phone on silent and it took almost 2 years for the phantom vibrations to stop.

I used to feel these a lot when I had a simple feature phone. Oddly enough I feel them far less often with my smartphone.

I don't have a cell any more. Only at home. But i was at the b shopping mart.(wallyworld) and a long vibrate went off in my pocket. Long enough for me to ponder and look and say to myself what the Hell. I even reach and nothing was in my pocket.

this shouldn't cause by no cell phone I've been having these symptoms for over 20 years Hospital goes and told me it's a pinched nerve but then never find out

I haven't had phantom vibrations, but I've heard phantom sounds that weren't there.
