Vibrate not working - Vibrant General

My vibrate for texts is not working, it is for calls though...
The phone is rooted, vibration intensity is up and vibrate is checked in text message settings...
Should i factory reset the phone and what data will i lose if i do?
Thanks in advance!

Mine isn't working either with the same settings.

yeah wtf... are you rooted?
and also does yours vibrate a little when you get a message almost like your touching one of the capacitive buttons?

Not rooted and I did a factory reset this morning so that wouldn't solve your issue. Right before I posted my previous comment I received a text message and didn't notice any sort of vibration.
At first I thought the vibration was too low and I couldn't feel it when the phone was in my pocket but I guess it isn't vibrating at all for text messages.

Has anyone discovered a way to make the phone vibrate when receiving a text message with the phone ringer set to vibrate?

I think that is under the settings of your SMS program. press menu when you are in your SMS inbox

Did you guys put on RyanZA's lagfix by any chance?

Vibrating during "txt msg sent" notification

I am trying to disable that notification since I don't want it vibrating everytime I send a text message to someone; is there ANY way to disable it? I can't find the option under "Sounds and Notifications"...

Use Registry Wizard, page one "Tweaks1" "Disable Message Sent notifications".

It's the only method I've found to stop it - by stopping it completely. I don't know the exact registry key.

This would hopefully not disable vibration on when I get a message, right? Also, is there a way to shorten the duration of the vibration?

Correct, my phone still vibrates when I receive a new message.

Go to your settings tab, press "menu" in bottom right, then "all settings", this will take you to the WM settings. There you will see "Sounds & Notifications"...the settings you're looking for will be in there.
Thanks, i never thought before to tap where it says incoming call and switch it to new message to change those settings, i was getting so pissed!!!, LOL appreciate it.

[Q] How to disable vibration and sound in messaging app?

When you unclick the vibrate option in notification settings in the stock messaging app, it won't vibrate when you receive a text if you set your phone to vibrate mode.
I don't want my phone to vibrate and make a sound with volume on when receiving texts, but there doesn't seem to be a way to have it vibrate only when in vibrate mode and make a sound when in sound mode without vibration.
Other apps like groupme allow you to separate vibration and sound mode, but can't in the stock messaging app
Anyone know how to do this?

I think, it's with your SMS app.

I get it. The setting we have on our stock messaging is totally different on the profile setting we have for the phone. So, basically, it won't work the way you want. If you unclick the vibrate on SMS setting, yes you're right, even if you put the phone on vibrate, it will not still vibrate when you receive notification for SMS.

Yep. So it seems that it is all or none with the vibration option. Sucks.

Ya. But that makes it vibrate all the time, not only when it's in vibrate mode.
I want it to only vibrate when on vibrate mode, not sound mode

Just put on your profile on Vibrate mode so that when you receive notification, it will vibrate. Or if it still doesn't work, don't know what to do anymore.

Vibrations

I got my S8 today and so far I'm loving it! Is there anyway to turn vibrations off when you get a text or any other type of message? I have turned all vibration settings and sounds off in the settings menu but I still get a vibration on incoming messages. Thanks.

Many apps have their own notification mechanism over which you have no control. All of my local news apps vibrate, and what's worse, there's no setting to disable it. You'll have to check the notification configuration screen of your messaging apps.

Thanks for the reply, I have found that with some apps you can turn off the vibrations and with messages you will have to turn of all notification settings on the app itself to stop the remaining vibrations.
That's correct! It's similar with iPhones as well; some app developers just do their own things.
