Is there any app that can change the intensity or the length of the vibrations when I receive messages and phone calls?
Handcent sms will do it for messages. But I don't know about calls
yea, but changing the "intensity" isnt possible, only length.. its the hardware (size of off centered weight on a motor) that gives you the intensity

I apologize if this has been answered somewhere else, but I have searched for quite a while to find a solution to this. The vibration when you receive an SMS message seems to last an extremeley long time. I've found how to shorten the vibration duration with the ringtone via registry settings, but this had no effect on the SMS notification. I've also read that the SMS vibrate lasts as long as whatever ringtone you have selected, but a change to a shorter ringtone had no effect.
Is there another registry setting that will allow me to modify the duration of the vibration for an SMS notification?
Thanks for any help!
Device: Cingular 8125
ROM: Cingular_RUU_WIZARD_217_AKU2_WWE
I'd like to know this as well if possible. When I've got it on vibrate on the desk in work, getting an SMS makes the whole room shake!
Would like to know this aswell!
no solution for that one?
The vibration duration is consistent to the duration of the notification tone you are using even when on vibrate only. So if you have a tone that does a quick chirp your phone will vibrate for the duration of that quick chirp. If you choose a 10 second long sound file your phone will vibrate for 10 seconds.
Hope that helps.
Has anyone noticed that when set to vibrate mode, when an SMS is recieved it vibrates for a lonnnnnnnnnnng time?
I have found that you can change the vibrate length for calls, but none of this seems to work for sms's.
Anyone know of a way to shorten the length of the sms vibrate?
Also, reading the text doesn't cancel the vibrate, is there a way to fix this instead of/as well as the above?
Regards,
Chris

You could take a look at pocketmax's Phone Alarm is this takes over all notifications regarding SMS/Emails/Voice and Missed calls.
Not sure if it solves the looonnnnng vibrate issue though.

nah i cant see that pocketmax's Phone Alarm allows you to change the duration or the vibrate.
I have the threaded sms app and for the love of god i cannot make it vibrate when i receive a text message. Can someone please explain to me how to make my phone vibrate when i get a text message through the threaded sms app.
any help would be great
have you tried going to sounds and notifications and turning on vibrate for palm sms...start-->settings (personal) -->sounds and notification-->notification-->select the one for the sms threaded text and then select vibrate.
let me know if this helps
i selected vibrate and it still doesnt vibrate.
try this
try going to start->setting->sounds¬ifications->make sure the programs and notifications(alarms, reminders) are checked off.
I cant get mine to STOP vibrating on the SMS. It also makes the noise i chose, but vibrates first. now thats annoying!
Did you do the hack to turn off your LEDs? That also stops vibration. Is it just with SMS or with all vibration?
Is it possible to tweak the registry to get get these 3-short-vibrations for incomming events (MMS, SMS) even if ringer not set to vibration. usually you will get one long vibration for incomming events if vibration for this event is turned on.
I use Valert to cutomize the vibration.
See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437279
I already use Valert but it changes only ringtone vibration not events like sms or mms.
Guys,
I keep the vibrate notification on for my text/mms messages 'cuz i like to know when I get them if I have music on in the car or something, etc. Today I was on the phone with a friend and got a text -she likened the noise that the vibration made to a "truck horn." Is there a way to get the vibration to only vibrate when not on a call? I've so far only found a way to turn it either full-on or full-off.
This is one of the reasons I prefer handcent over the default SMS app. It has all sorts of notifications options including the ability to selectively enable/disable sound and/or vibration for notifications when on a call. I have both off so incoming text messages never interrupt my calls.
