Phone Wont stop Vibrating. - Epic 4G General

Even when I sent the phone to NEVER vibrate if I go to volume settings and minimize all sounds to have no sounds and have the phone vibrate settings set to never.
The phone will still vibrate when I recieve a text.
It wont vibrate on an incoming call or email.
How can I get this phone to not make a sound when I truely want it on silent mode.
If I put it on silent mode then alarms and media have sound and I dont want that either.
Does anyone have any solutions Im on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130117
Is there an apk I can download or something.

What app are you using for Messaging? If its Handcent you need to go into that app's settings to disable vibrating on incoming texts, one thing is adjusting the settings on your phone, but apps miraculously have their own settings, and act upon themselves.

If its the stock app, its in the settings at the very bottom.

[Q] epic will not vibrate w/ new texts

when i have my phone on vibrate it does so with calls but not on texts even though i turned on the option under the settings for texts. i also tried audiomanager which doesnt seem to work either.
anyone else having this problem and is there a way to fix it?
Annoying as it is, the vibrate for incoming texts is controlled separately from the ringer volume. Meaning that if you turn on vibrate, it will always vibrate even if your phone isn't set to vibrate.
Menu -> Settings -> Vibrate from the text thread list.
My solution is to use the Tasker app to vibrate the phone when I receive a text on the condition that variable %SILENT = vibrate.
What I'm trying to say is that even when I go to settings and vibrate under text menu it doesn't vibrate on texts. I may give that app a try.

I started having this problem a few days ago and just solved it. I'm using Handcent for SMS, and even though my phone was set to vibrate, and Handcent notifications were set to vibrate, suddenly all of my notifications (Handcent and otherwise) stopped vibrating. Vibrate still worked on calls. I simply downloaded the free app "Sound Manager" from the Market and went to Vibrate from the Menu. For some reason Vibrate for Notifications was set to "Never". Not sure how, since I don't think there's a setting for this in the stock settings on the Epic, but I changed it and now vibrate works on all notifications again.
To me this is easier than setting something up in Tasker (though Tasker is way cool).
Sweet! Thanks so much its finally working now...

[Q] can we turn notification 'vibrate' off ?

My email and sms notifications vibrate and i cant seem to find a way to stop it
got call vibrate off via menu/settings/sound settings. Vibrate-Never
is there a way to permently disable it?
Is there anybody out there?
My tab can completely switch off the vibrate for either call and notification. There is no way with stock rom to switch the vibrate mode for notification seperately. You should use third party apps to do so.

[Q] No SMS notification at all--sound or icon

A few days ago, I've lost the sms notification for the default Samsung Messaging app. If I install Go SMS, I get notifications, but not with the default messaging app, which I prefer.
I've checked all settings and have notifications turned on, but still not getting any notifications. It's not a volume issue--volume is at 100%. I don't get a sound or an icon. I've searched the web and found that others are having similar issues, without solution.
I must have turned something off or something conflicts with it, but I've tried everything that I can to fix it and am at a loss. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Have you definitely gone into sms then settings and made sure notifications are on ? If so I'd try turning off the notifications thrn closing up sms then going back in to turn on. If no go maybe uninstall go sms for now and try again

Tried all of the above and still no go.
Do you have something else set as your default message app?

Messaging app was set to default, but once I uninstalled go sms, everything worked. Thanks!

[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.

Allow certain apps to make noise in silent mode

Is there a way to only all certain notifications to make a sound like fb messanger when i have my phone on silent? I know about do not disturb but i still want other notifications to pop up but no sound when i have my phone on silent or vibrate. Even if there was an app for this that would be great. Thanks

I just know some Android roms come with Silent, Priority, and regular Notification. Priority will allow important apps (like Facebook) to override.

Yes its called "Do Not Disturb" in your settings. You can set everything in there.. Here are some screen shots:
For some reason, xda app, and tapatalk are having issues loading pictures.
