[Q] Vibrate not working at all - Captivate General

Vibrate is no longer working on incoming calls, messaging, nor on haptic feedback. Does anybody know why, and how to get it to work?
Note It worked when I first got the phone.
I have tried checking vibrate in all of the following places:
1) haptic feedback
2) sounds & display ( check vibrate, tried check/uncheck silent mode)
3) messaging settings
4) notification bar
Even after reboot.
Stock Rom.

Haptic feedback- Check not only that it is enabled but that you have the intensity set up as well.
Calls/Messaging- Do you have service showing? Is your Sim card in properly? More info on what exactly is going on. If those are good you might need to take the phone to Tmob and see if something is up.

That was it - the vibrate feedback intensity was down.
Thanks! It's like a maze.

Vibrate for notifications toggle

Is there any software that will allow me to toggle vibration on/off for ringtones and notifications (preferably from the system tray)?
I want to keep the sounds switched on, but just turn the vibration off as when my I-Mate JAM is on a table, all you can hear is the vibration rather than the notification and ringtone sounds I've setup. Then when I put it in my pocket to go out, I want an easy way to turn on vibration again.
Is there anything out there?
I've tried some profile switching stuff, but they don't seem to work with my JAM as it tends to turn off vibrate mode for calls completely (for some reason).
Thanks in advance.

I have they are fine...
did it ever vibrate when receiving a call? if it did could be just a bad flash as it's vibrating when receiving a text. it's incoming call set on vibrate or ring and vibrate?
Same here. After I applied new official ROM for TP, when I put my phone to Vibrate mode, it only vibrates when there is a call. For SMS and e-mail, there is no vibration although all options are set fine.
Any ideas?

[Q] No vibrate if silent mode is off

Now i hv an issue which need u help. For my Nexus s, no vibrate appears when an sms or gtalk message comes if the silent mode is off. But, the phone would be vibrating if i turned on the silent mode. i set vibrate always in the setting of Sound. i also set the vibrate always in the setting of SMS and Gtalk. But, it doesn't work. i wanna the ringtone and vibrate both appear if an sms or gtalk meassage comes. is there anyone help me?
there are 2 modes
make sure you have set it to VIBRATE mode
if you set it to SILENT mode, it is really silent, it wont even vibrate, because vibration makes noise

Now the problem is that if the SILENT mode is selected, vibrate would come, if not, no vibrate comes. i wanna see that ringtone and vibrate come out together if an sms or gtalk message received without SILENT mode selected. but, it doesn't work. However, if an incoming call came, the ringtone and vibrate could come out together.
i had the same issue ever since I bought my Nexus S but the setting for vibrating when you receive a text message is in the Messaging app after you press the menu key adn go into settings
Messaging App --> Menu Key --> Settings --> Vibrate (Under the Notification Settings)
Hope this helps!!
I use audio manager (free version) from the market. It offers excellent control over all the global sound levels and vibration.
Sent from the future to put right what once went wrong.

[Q] How do I get vibration alerts?

My ringer is usually off and I can't keep looking at my screen (e.g., for NoLED) when I'm with patients. I've been unable to get vibration notifications of incoming text messages, although as far as I can tell I've selected everything to do with vibration in Settings.
Surely there's a way to get this that I'm missing.
in the sound settings, select vibrate and choose an option like vibrate only in silent mode or always. in the messages app, choose settings and select vibrate. choose vibrate only in silent mode or always

Right. I've done that (Vibrate Always in both Settings and Messaging), yet it doesn't vibrate for anything except calls.
be certain that notifications are enabled in the messaging app.
there was a similar problem on a couple htc phones i had. i used a program from the market called 'sound manager', i believe it was. then i set everything the way i wanted it, did a test and vibrate worked. then when i deleted the sound manager app the settings stuck and my messages still alerted via vibration. good luck.
I'm starting to think this might be a Gingerbread bug, man, cuz I don't get vibrations on text either
I used to think it was CM7 but I have the same problem on stock.

Overzealous haptic feedback during calls on CM7 nightly

Does anyone know how to turn off the vibration that happens during a call whenever I move my phone and when the call begins? For example I move the phone to or away from my face and it does a double vibrate.
I have ALL vibrate options under Call Settings disabled, including the one for vibrate on pickup, but it still happens and I can't find an option for this anywhere. I checked spare parts and the cyanogen menus in settings.
Help, it's been driving me nuts!
