Weird vibrating sound (buzz sound)

I recently got a broken iPhone 3g, because I would like to play around with it and try to fix it.

This iPhone has numerous issues, but there are 2 that I don't really know how to solve.

First of all, my iPhone makes a weird vibrating sound. I recorded it, but I found a video with the same sound on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPNe9lmRG...

Is my vibrating motor detached for some reason?

My second problem is a 'sensitive' mute trigger. Some people state that I'd have to replace the button, but others state that I have to replace the 'headphone jack'?

Any tips for these problems?

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

I fixed the vibrator issue, it was quite easy. The little cover got loose. So instead of buying a new one I was able to press it back down and with a little drup of superglue I just glued it. Now it works perfectly!
