i read the previous posts/replies about how to change it in the registry.. i have the 8525 and it didnt work... i set my phone to VIBRATE, then when i recieve a txt message it vibrates 3 times and hard as hek... i am not concerned about when its not on vibrate or ringer is set to off... just vibrate mode... how do i get it to vibrate only once, and not as hard?
thanks
tony
Would be nice to have a vibrate that was "hard as heck". I usually can't feel mine at all.
Maybe there's something like ringer script just like ringer( something like arpw3 )

Has anybody had this issue before?
I have an 8525 and all of a sudden it won't vibrate anymore. It was vibrating yesterday, this morning...nothing.
I have tried switching to a ringer and switching back, holding the side button to switch between vibrate and ring, and nothing. No matter what I do, it will not vibrate. When I put it in vibrate mode I just get silence when a phone call comes in.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks

There are at least two threads on this. (code for saying try the google search sticky post ). I assume you have not changed any settings since yesterday? If not look at this thread. You might try phoning yourself with vibrate on and tapping/bumping the base end of the phone while it's ringing. If it starts vibrating then the contacts are loose on the motor - and even if it doesn't they may be loose:

If you need to post again or just to say if you have any success, use the thread above.

i am tired of the 3 second vibration every time i get e text but i need it to vibrate so i cant just disable vibrate. i did search and found the reg edit to change the length of vibrate but it only applies to incoming calls not text, so my phone rings with a 1 second vibrate which is a huge improvement but it still vibrates for 3 seconds when i get a text. i looked around in the reg a little but didn't find anything...
any ideas?

Change HKLM/SOFTWARE/OEM/VIB\STRENGTH_LOW from 1 to 0 wait 15 seconds or so and soft reset you should be happier with that...

You have it under Settings->Sounds and notifications, and then the Notifications tab.

already did that, im not so stupid like that.
i just 5 minutes ago did hard reset. it works again. that was really strange, i didnt changed it so much.
LED and vibration by sms recieve works again.
but vibration is still too short, with mozart tone.
how i make vibration stronger and longer? i prefer about 7 sec.
Well, I didn't really think you where stupid, but WM isn't really logical sometimes, so splitting phone and notifications settings isn't always obvious.
Don't know if there are any tweak settings for the length of vibrations, but using phoneAlarm you could change how it vibrates.

have the audio alert last for 7 seconds. The only problem I have is I like the phone to pulse vibrate, but it seems like WM just does a full burst.
I'm having the same issues. ROM is the one that OliNex posted,
It's set in Sounds and Notifications, however it doesn't vibrate. Phone calls do.
I'v tried hard reset, I've tried soft reset, I've tried reflashing, but no success. Is there a registry setting somewhere?
Thanks

PS: My right hand volume control slider, refuses to go above 0 ...
Anyone else having problems with their SMS apps when on vibrate mode? Handcent and SMS popup both do not vibrate when my phone is on vibration mode. Is it me or is it the apps? Any apps people recommend for SMS vibrations?
You have to turn on vibrate within each app you want to vibrate: gmail, mail, messages, etc. This means that vibrate is on all the time, and if you turn your phone volume up it still vibrates. It would be nice to have a situation dependent setting, but I like vibrate on all the time, even if I have the ringer on.
mine dont vibrate either

Lol, I know this already...but even when the notifications are on, it still does not vibrate. I'm guessing it's the apps I'm using...I think the developers need to update for our vibrants.
Here's a fix.

Actually try it before saying it doesn't, because it does work.

Wow, it actually works. THANKS A LOT DKYang!
F.Y.I. on this. I noticed that if you lower completly down the 'vibration intensity', though labeled as the intensity for touch vibration, it controls the vibration for sms vibration as well. It took some playing around to find this.
For some reason I cant stop my notifications from vibrating when my phone is in vibrate mode. Its been a while but Im pretty sure in the past on my S7 I was able to have my notifications muted if my phone was in vibrate mode (except for texts and calls). I only want my phone to vibrate when I receive a call or a text if I am in vibrate mode. Otherwise I want all other notification sounds and vibration silent/muted/no vibrate when I have the phone in vibrate mode. This may have changed with a recent OTA update, currently on PE1. Am I missing something?
1) In settings/Sound and Vibration, Vibrate while ringing is checked and actually grayed out, I cannot unselect it. Which is fine because I want it to vibrate when ringing unless I mute the phone.
2) In Email notifications, notifications are on, but Vibrate is turned off and actually grayed out, I cannot turn it on. I have 3 email accounts setup through the built in Email app and all 3 are set to the same thing. Yet, it still vibrates when I get a notification.
I thought I had this figured out but apparently not. I ONLY want phone and texts to vibrate my phone when in vibrate mode. I want all other notifications muted. I have email vibration turned OFF but it still vibrates, along with most other notifications. Since I have 3 email accounts set up on my phone, this is quite annoying. What am I missing? Does vibrate mode make everything vibrate even if I have vibrate turned off on nearly all apps?
Try using do not disturb instead. You can customize it to allow phone and text messaging to go thru, and mutes everything else
Vibrate mode means vibrate. Why would you expect it not to vibrate when you use a setting called "Vibrate"?
