Hey there guys,
So I've noticed the oddest thing, You know how you can lower your ringer volume by just clicking down as many times as you want until it is on vibrate then finally silent. Well on mine it doesn't. I can click the down volume button a few times and the meter shows the yellow bar decreasing, yet when the phone rings it is still on full blast. The only thing that works is full blast, vibrate and silent which is strange and inconvenient when I'm in public because I don't want to put it on vibrate or silent, I just want to lower it a bit so its not so startlingly loud in public. Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks,
Haven
I loved on 2.1 how I could just use the rocker to go from sound, to vibrate, to silent. Is there any way of enabling this on EB13? "vibrate only when not in silent" doesn't give the same effect, as the rocker goes straight from silent to low volume.

Seems the took out silent and only have vibrate, however if you get like a widget that has silent it still work, not sure why they took that away, but ive been without ever since i got on dk28, but just grab a widget and you still can get into silent i believe..

This is really annoying. Sometimes I need it to be silent, sometimes I want my phone to just vibrate. But it doesn't seem like that's possible with froyo..

I think one reason for removing it is because it is on the pull down menu now. Personally I like it better there.

Yeah but if you choose only vibrate on silent and then choose silent, it's not really silent is it? It still vibrates...
The reason why it matters to me is because I set my phone on a cradle while at work and I don't need the phone to vibrate because it's loud. I'd rather have it on silent.

If you go to sound settings then vibrate you can set it to "vibrate only when not in silent mode." There will be no vibrate only option, but you will have silent instead, without vibrate. Works through the rocker and notification bar

Right, but then the phone won't vibrate if I have it in my pocket. Stupid I know but it's useful for me...
That is a Android 2.2 feature, not a Samsung or Sprint thing. You can change it in the settings to either be silent and no vibrate or vibrate only. The only way around this is a widget like the previous post said.

Man I see your point now. I apologize I didn't actually test it. You can either have volume and vibrate our volume and silent. That does suck. Glad I don't use silent very often but that is a pain.

If you press volume up on the rocker to enable the ringer, it will vibrate. Unless you simply want vibrate only, and silent (no vib) only, then yes widget is the only option. What you want is not stupid, deleting that feature was stupid

No problem. I just find silent and vibrate separately as being useful. Whenever I'm in a meeting, I'd like my phone to vibrate when it's in my pocket so I know I got a message. But when I'm at my desk, it's annoying to have my phone vibrate whenever I get an email/text. For one, I have gmail open at my desk and 2, I just have the screen come on whenever I get a text so vibrate isn't really necessary.
Oh well, guess I'll explore using a widget. Thanks.
Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help, all of a sudden when I type keys on the phone pad its very quiet I can hardly hear the tones as I press the keys, I've double checked all the sound settings and everything is as loud as possible, all other sounds and notification sounds work just fine.
Hello there everyone,
is anyone else experiencing this weird phenomenon:
everytime haptic feedback frequency is high, e.g. while fast typing messages, I'm hearing besides the vibrating buzz also some clicks, and they become louder the shorter the intervals between the pulses. When I wait a little after hearing it and touch a key again, the clicking is gone but as soon as they follow up each other a little bit faster it's hearable again.. Can anyone check if this happens with them too? I can't remember I was hearing this sound too when I first used the phone, just wanted to know if something's wrong in the earpiece. I know the vibrator is situated at the bottom of the phone, the noise however is coming from the earpiece.
Thanks in advance!

No I haven't also, the phone is completely set to mute. But if the guy of the second answer doesn't have his touch sounds on neither, everything's OK with me just wanted to know if it was abnormal
Thanks!
I've searched for this functionality and not found any good way off doing it.
I leave my phone on loud at night so certain notifications will wake me in case of something important. To wake me some of these notifications are loud and extremely annoying. I would like for my phone to vibrate first, then have a delay of over 30 seconds before the notification tone. I would like the notification tone to not play if I use the phone between vibration and sound.
Can anyone point me in the direction of an app or mod and that would let me do this? Google has failed me so far.
I don't want to create sound files with 30 seconds of silence at the start as this requires me to mute my phone and then I may forget to turn the volume up again.
