I have same problem. Turned off all notifications. Backed up information to icloud and reset my phone as instructed by genius bar. Still with random vibrate or sound depending on the switch. Went back they gave me new phone thought everything was ok, one week later i am still getting random vibrations. They happen regular mode, in airplane mode, with wireless on or off. Real annoying. Can"t use my phone as an alarm clock because if I keep the sound on I will get random sounds in the middle of the night. Considering Android.
Dude only solution is replacement, I had the issue I got it replaced .you will have to keep replacing it until it works fine for you & get an apple protection plan if your phone is running out of warranty.
This worked for me,Cheers bud.
You nailed it for me. Thanks!
It is your exchange e-mail.
Go to settings/sounds/new mail, then choose none.
This helped me get rid of those.

On your phone, got to Settings, then Sounds, then adjust 1) the VIBRATE setting and 2) the individual SOUND AND VIBRATION PATTERNS. The culprit for me was new emails coming into my Inbox. Bugged me like crazy for three days, then discovered this. It has absolutely nothing to do with the Notifications settings. Apple needs to put everything that makes your phone vibrate/sound off into a single integrated location in the next IOS update. It's truly a human design flaw to hide these kinds of settings in two different places. Just my two bits. This is a problem caused by Apple's IOS Upgrade because it turned these vibration settings on when they were not on before the upgrade. Again, unintended consequences. It's easy to fix. Cheers.
(P.S. Apple has needlessly replaced a lot of Iphones I suspect, because their Geniuses did not even comprehend how this problem got created...)
I solved it by going to Settings>Notifications>mail>to each mailbox>new mail sound click none AND Vibration under custom to none!!! I'm a genius!!
Mine would vibrate twice like getting a text message on silent. Turns out it only happens when it's plugged in. It is a faulty charger. When the cord moves a certain way it disconnects and when it reconnects it vibrates twice because it recognizes the charger again. Hope that helps others!
The likley reason you're getting the random virating is due to your email. Test: try sending your self an email from a PC/MacBook and see if your phone buzzes a second or two after you send. If it does then you can conclude that your phone is set to notify you when you recieve an email.
Same problem for me: iPhone 5, OS7 random vibrations with no notification. I checked settings --> sounds and my new mail and most everything else is "none".
This is what fixed it for me: go to settings / notification center and look at each app. I found two apps with the alert sytle "none" which means when that app has a notification, it will vibrate/sound the phone but will have no other visible notification. For each of those apps, make the alert style either banner or alerts to see which app is causing the vibration, or deselect "show in notification center" to remove the app from notifying you. Problem sovled.
