Try cleaning and slightly thin lubing the bearing.

So Lemme get this straight-the string is vibrating like crazy, and the yoyo isn’t?
And you changed the bearing and the vibrating stopped?
What is the purpose of this post if you answered your own question?
Uhhh…

He wants to find out what caused the bearing vibration in the first place and if there’s a solution without getting a new bearing. Personally I think the answer is to buy a new bearing. If not, just follow Samad’s thread on cleaning your bearing and see if it still has a vibe. You can also try checking the bearing seat.

Sometimes YYJ bearings do this. I think it’s 'cause the sheilds are crooked.

No it’s because the bearings aren’t fit tightley into the bearing seat which causes the familiar YYJ vibe.
