Yes there is? Go to the Notifications tab under Sound & Notifications, then use the pulldown menu at the top and go to Phone: Missed call and Messaging: New text message, and click the "flash light for..." box.
Hope that helps,
Petrov.

no way, in that tab for example for missing calls I only can choose between:
play a sound
vibrate
turn on the screen for (5 10 20 30 minutes)
show message on screen
but nothing about flash light

R u telling me u dont have this option at all? Are u sure your phone is a blackstone?

Vibrator control on incomming sms

I tryed to use the search function, and I could not find anything about this.
What I am asking for is a program where you can control your vibrator on an inc sms fx. If you have your Blackstone on lets say a table made of wood, then the vibrator is going mental on an inc sms imo.
So does anyone know if it is possible to control the vibrator? I know you can turn it off on inc sms, but I kinda want it.
/thx

i am not sure this is what u want, but you can turn off the vibrate on incoming msg, if that's bugging you. go to settings/sounds & notifications/ notifications tab. and from the drop down menu choose messaging: new text message, and untick the box for vibrate.

Yeah I know you can turn it off, but I don't want it turned off. I want the vibrator to be less "wild" when you get a text. Hope that makes sense.

alright, i got what u mean. and yes i remember coming across something like this, where you could tweak the vibration length. but i honestly cant remember where i saw it. let me try to search and will definetly get back to you if i find it. i think touchresponse has that option try it

Cool man. Will check it out

I tryed the Touchresponse program. But it does not give an option to change the vibration on an incomming text. It only gives settings to change the vibration when you use your fingers on the device.

yes your right, i'm sorry, but on the developers things to do list, he mentions future vibration tweaks, maybe you can ask him about that.
i found valert, but that only tweaks vibration for incoming call

Okay, thx for the help anyways, really appreciate it

Hi
I am also interested in a program or a tweak which makes Touch HD vibrate less--- like nokia- vibrate,stop,vibrate,stop!!!

Mystery vibration

Just got a TD 2. Really love it after using Eten M600 for years.
But, somethings got me stumped. Frequently the device vibrates for a few seconds without any connection to an obvious event. I've checked that the phone ringer is not set on vibrate. I also checked sound & notifications - theres no event that I can see set to vibrate. After it happens, I check the notifications - and there is no event listed there.
So what is causing this to happen?

does it vibrate when u touch the dispaly?

No, just vibrates for no apparent reason.
No calls or events or notifications.
There must be a cause - I just cannot think what it could be.

Even though I dont own an HD2 (yet).. try going in settings tab then down the bottom choose "menu/all settings", then choose personal, then phone and sellect keypad "off".. take care

Thank you, that worked (can't believe I missed it).

no worries... Its easy to get lost some times in wm, even more so when this is masked by htc sense ui

Great, thanks for the tip! I thought I had been through all sub-menus but I somehow missed the "Personal" one

We almost need a thread called ,
"Everything you want to know about HD2 but were afraid to ask" ..
I know there are some things that I just missed that were staring me right in the face ...

Anyone know how to disable this through the registry? I'm trying to sort this out when XDA_UC runs.
I flash A LOT and it's a pain to do this every single time.
EDIT: Got it

HKCU \ ControlPanel \ Sounds \ Keypress
Beep Mode: 0

Sigh... Missed it BIG TIME. It was right there...Below the "play" and "stop" button........ Thank you for starting this thread
WTF-moment...

ok... im not the only one

hahahah i just what i was looking for!! thanks for the solution

Disable the ugly sound when tapping to the screen ...

Hi guys,
Each times my finger tap the screen of my HD2 I get an ugly sound.
Do you know where to disable that ?
Thanks

Settings>locale & text>text input

This is not related to text input, the sound occurs each time I tap the screen (in manilla, in folder explorer, ...)

Thanks man, it works !
