phantom callers

Does anyone else get phantom phone-vibrating? By which I mean that paranormal experience where, expecting or hoping for a text message to liven up a boring day at work, or hoping someone will interrupt your trip to town on a Saturday afternoon with an invitation to the pub, you feel a clear and familiar vibrating from your inside coat pocket. Brrrrrrrr (once). Brrrrrrr (twice). And so you reach inside your coat with your tired from typing hands or your windbitten hands to get the phone and.... there is no message, and there is no missed call. You willed the vibration into existence, but you can't prove it happened.

Anyway. I get that all the time.

Oh, all the time. In fact my phone rings so rarely that I often assume an actual call is a phantom.

I've seen a few people mention this so I think it's quite common. Something to do with those vibrations, either coming from your own body or from outside sources, being quite normal but you never noticed them until you had a vibrating phone. Or something.
