I have gingerbread on my hd2, its a boyppc rom from 5 may. everything works fine except the vibration issues im having. i want to disable all vibration except the notifications and calls. im finding it quite impossible. ive tried all the settings i can find but i cant turn it off. also - my vibration patterns arent consistent with what i have set in the notification menu. whether i have long, short, multiple short or multiple long - i get the same short vibration. any help appreciated.

The only 2 vibration options are from Vibrate and Haptic feedback. Now, whatever you want to vibrate you can download an app for it like say you want notification go download an sms/mms app that have that function when receive a message.
if there is 'cyanogen mod settings' in the settings menu,find 'input' then 'haptic feedback' Adjust as you want.

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

Hey all. long time lurker, first time poster.
I received my nexus one a few days ago, and it has been a blast. However, after charging it last night ( the first time I charged it via wall charger as opposed to USB) I awoke to find it incredibly hot. I let it cool down, but ever since, the vibration has not worked.
I briefly was able to get the vibration on by taking out the battery and leaving phone and battery by the cold window. It vibrated normally on startup, and briefly in the os before turning off. Since, I have had no luck.
Any suggestions? I could, of course, send it off to get repaired under warranty, but i'd rather see what I can do first. I am currently attempting to drain the battery completely and see what that might do. I'm shooting in the dark, I know, but I'd rather try to figure it out as much as I can.
Thanks!
try a factory reset (Settings>about phone), if that doesnt work its hardware problem so send it in.
Weird, i havent had any problems with mine getting hot. Vibration doesnt work on anything? Keyboard, calls, etc. and youre sure you went into settings and enabled it on those?
settings/sound and display.
Enable haptic feedback.
if the phone is in silent mode this option will be grayed out.
I hope it is as simple as that and that it is not damaged from charging.
I'm having vibration problems too, but I don't think it's due to charging, but to me it seems like the vibration is going out. I was using the haptic feedback for the vk, and now it doesn't work half the time, and when it does, it is not very noticeable.
but the bigger vibrations still work, so I'm clueless on it

I know in better keyboard you can change how long the vibration lasts for, Im using smart keyboard right now and I can definitely feel the press of the keys.

This problem happened on a swap I tried (my screen has dust under it) and I called HTC and said I was sending the swap back because of this and they said it was fine. Give HTC a call, I think its a hardware problem
Thats how mine was, it was charging and got really hot, now when i get text messages it doesnt vibarate but if i get a phone call it does.
a couple of times, when i charged overnight, the phone gets hot. i think if it has a "running" app, it does this.

It's completely normal for the phone to get "hot" when charging or running apps with heavy power utilization... basically anything demands a decent amount of power.
However, it shouldn't get so hot that it's uncomfortable to hold or that parts start failing... that would indicate a defect with the phone and would necessitate an exchange through HTC.

Yes, in fact all notification vibrations fail now (GTalk / GMail Vibration notifications fail). This happened to me just today. Sigh.
Update: Notice I said all notification vibrations. It's specifically notification vibrations. All other types of vibrations such as haptic feedback and phone calls work fine. Only vibrations that pertain to the notifications / notification bar do not happen anymore. I don't think this is a hardware issue. This happened just recently. Could it be due to the new (OTA) update? Something broken?
i can't get mine to vibrate when a text comes in, no matter what settings i use. it will vibrate when a call comes in. i text a lot, so that would be really handy to have it work (like it should) when i'm out and it's too busy/loud to hear the phone but, not sure if i want to send it back because of this...
That's crazy I've never had a phone that vibrates stronger.
I've updated my post above. It's not about the vibration of the phone but just on the notification vibrations. Somehow it just stopped all of a sudden.
Looks like this person might've had the same problem:

Shall try a hard reset and see how that goes then. Rather reluctant to try it but here goes..
Update: Nope. Still no vibration for notifications after doing Hard Reset (using "Clear Storage"). I have even tested this using the API Demos app from the Market. Under App -> Notification -> Status Bar -> Vibrate button there is no vibration to be felt.

use the search function, lol. if you are having problems with notification vibration, download the 'sound manager' app from the market. start it up. press menu > vibrate settings. set it up how you want. fixes the issue.
I searched, but I kept searching for the "vibration" keyword. That thread only shows when you search "vibrate" .. or "notification vibrate". My phone is with HTC now. I don't understand why a Hard Reset doesn't resolve the issue...
fixed

I can confim this trick works... DL sound manager from the market then activate " vibrate whenever possible" in vibration menu...
it fixed the problem i had : no vibrations only on notifications ..
never had such a fast phone, thanks to google,timothydonohue, cyanogen and all modders...!!!
My phone doesn't seem to be vibrating on SMS or when receiving email (gmail notifier). It used to, but I don't remember when it stopped. If I put the phone in vibrate only mode, and use test notification, it also doesn't vibrate.
It does vibrate when I receive calls. There is haptic feedback on the dialer. When I ask the phone to vibrate (moving the rocker all the way down) it works. It also vibrates with the alarm. On start up, I also get that short vibrate as "htc" comes on the screen. So I think the vibrate feature is working, but not all the time. I'm pulling my hair out here and not sure what to do. Should I reflash the rom? Should I wipe and restart?
I am using freshrom 1.1 with the gumbo custom kernel. I had been using chompsms which wasn't vibrating so I switched to Handcent, which also isn't vibrating. Weird maybe??
EDIT: FIXED! Thanks for the help DirtyShroomz. Sound Manager did the trick.
Download sound manager, hit menu-vibrate settings and turn on notifications vibrate
Thats pretty weird. I have used both of those programs and never had a problem. I know in Handcent there is a check box for vibrate. I just switched to chomp and mine is still working.
Wow. It worked, awesome. Thanks!
Interestingly, under Sound Manager's vibrate settings, the ringer setting was still on, but the notification setting was off. I guess this means it was somehow inactivated but this is the way to get it back. Excellent.

Same thing happened to me, I went months without vibrate
I just noticed today, that my Nexus one wont vibrate when i receive text messages. I first thought it might of been Handcent SMS so i deleted that and started to use stock. Yet the problem continues. I checked the settings and i have it set to always vibrate. Any fix around this?
make sure that you have vibrate checked in settings for the messaging application. other than that, i think sometimes apps mess around with the vibrate settings. try the app Sound Manager from the market place and then in the context menu they have a vibrate setting. if it's not already selected, which explains what's been going on, select "vibrate whenever possible." that's what worked for me...
I had this problem with 2.2 on my G1, would vibrate sometimes then would never vibrate again.
I think it must be possible to burn out the motor that makes the vibration.
Do you use any apps that vibrate heavily often?
Use Ringo Lite. Works for me. You can even set a vibrate pattern.
I had a similar problem except i had no vibrations; all settings squared away, hard reset, basic troubleshooting. Turned out the motor burned out. Sent it to HTC and they repaired it for me.

I turned off all vibration or feedback and yet my phone vibrates when I get incoming calls. I unchecked all the boxes trust me and it still vibrates? Is it just me or does anyone else get this? I simply don't want it to vibrate when i get incoming calls!!!
Any suggestions!

Is the profile on vibrate? Try Menu > Settings > Sounds > Vibrate in General.
nope! it's on Normal with vibrate unchecked
Had the same issue and found this on Androidworld:
Try this:
Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications
Find the keyboard software you are using (for example "Android-Keyboard"), press "delete cache" and "delete data". This removes al personal settings of the keyboard.
After that I rebooted and vibration was turned off. Hopes it works!
Does this also remove all dictionary entries?

On a side note, I think I get times where the phone occasionally vibrates for no good reason - no apparent notification, no apparent change or anything.

Get exactly the same thing. No idea why as it's completely random and can be days between.

Good, at times I thought it was me going mad but I'm 100% sure it does this occasionally - but it could be absolutely anything, so I didn't even bother trying to find the cause.
I'm getting the same. 1 short followed by 3 short "pulses". The phone was in silent-mode (no vibrate), and I didn't get any calls og messages at the time.
