I recently installed the gingerbeast rom on my phone, and now, whenever I get texts, there is no vibration. The text tone works, and my phone vibrates for calls and pressing buttons, but it doesn't vibrate for texts, even when I set it to always vibrate. Is that part of the rom, or is there something wrong with my phone??
i would assume rom. try doing a fullwipe and installing another rom just to see.
I'd go through the rom thread and see if anyone else has experienced your issue (though, this is cumbersome)...
Try clearing the dalvik cache and reboot....
Is vibrate (in message settings) enabled?
If that doesn't work, try out this app. I used it on the stock rom and it worked wonderfully. I'd bet that it would do the trick for you too.
Open up your text app. Hit menu>setting >notification setting. Their just change as you see fit

I flashed my daughters phone to the official upgrade. since then she has no vibration when she receives a text. I have searched and cannot find anything about this.
In settings it's checked to always vibrate, but never does. Not even for a phone call.
any ideas?
Have you checked the settings inside the SMS app and make sure the app is set to vibrate for notifications?
Yes it is. All settings are set to vibrate, but the phone isn't vibrating. Thinking I may need to reflash

Always try a reflash first, typically that will fix these odd issues that other's aren't reporting. Flashing isn't a cut and dried process, I've experienced quite a few bad flashes, it just happens sometimes.
I have one problem I get a call I pick up I hear very clear the only thing I get is when screen goes black it vibrates and when screen wakes-up vibrates again only on calls is there a way to disable that. I have all my setting off every 45 sec, vibrate during call vibrate during call
And I don't know what I did my soft key does not light up

From what I can observe, this should be in "Q&A" instead of general.
With that said, it would be helpful for us to know what troubleshooting you have already tried so not to waste your time or ours.
*Try wiping dalvik cache, reboot and try again.
Didn't work? - Try Fix Permissions, reboot and try again.
Didn't work? - check MD5 Sum of downloaded Rom zip. - Incorrect? - redownload and flash again. - Correct? - Try wiping data/cache/dalvik x2 - Try again.
*Check settings again...
Search CM7 thread using forum tools and check for keywords like that mention your problem. - No results, check 20 pages before last post and determine if anyone else experienced and resolved the issue. - Didn't work? Ask kindly by starting your post with "I searched the last 20 pages but couldn't see anyone else experience this problem. "explain problem in short/concise details" and then mention what you have done to troubleshoot....
Didn't work? - Use another ROM that plays nicer with your phone.
Good luck and hope this helps.
Everything u said I tried and as far as going to a different rom I don't like any other rom this is the most stable

Soft keys not lighting up sometimes i think is an issue on many aosp roms.
On the other, no idea.

Hi all,
I've been a member for a while, but this is my first post in a while.
I recently changed my Motorola Atrix to a Samsung Skyrocket. I love the phone, however I am having a little problem. The Skyrocket will not make noise or vibrate for notifications (such as text, or email, facebook, twitter, etc) but will play ringtone for phonecalls. When I restart the phone, it will work maybe for a day, but after that, it stops working again. Sometimes after receiving a call the notifications will start working again. I've checked the volume settings, and the notifications and ringtone settings, and everything like that... it's all normal. Any suggestions? I've been searching in the forums, and other sites as well, but dont seem to find anything.
The phone is rooted, but that's about it, stock rom. I also did a master reset on the phone as well.
I was using go sms but deleted it and the notifications still go silent.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks!
Hopefully someone here can help ya. I still have not found a solution
Ome thing I never really thought of was trying an Odin restore back to stock...a full clean slate. If that doesn't fix it then definitely a defective phone

That's what I did this morning. So far it's working perfectly, hopefully it will keep working.
Thanks for the reply!
I installed Go SMS again and seems to be working. What I did notice this time around, is that when I was setting up the notifications for the Facebook app, I noticed the option to choose from the Android System ringtones or from Go SMS. Maybe I had it set up to choose ringtones from Go SMS. Seems to be working fine now.
The notification volume and incoming call volume are seperated. The notification sometimes changes somehow idk how. If you want the incoming and notification to be the same download MySettings. The open the app up and click and hold the ringer icon then itll come up with volume settings. Check the box that says use incoming and notification sound together

I looked around and didn't see anything as specific as this, so I'll ask the question.
A lot of my notifications don't work 80% of the time, whether it's gmail, sms, or a game notification. All notifications are set to be on, but I have a theory. With Ice Cream Sandwich, there is the option to hold the back button on your phone and it will kill your app. I wonder if this might be a culprit. For instance, if I'm reading a text and hold the back button to kill the app, is it possible for that to kill the push notification as well? Granted it could be the ROM I'm using, but no one else on that particular forum has any problem like I've described. Does anyone have any ideas or has this happened on a regular basis? Most things I can live without, but if someone's trying to send me a text message, it might be hours before I think to check it and find out that hours before someone had sent me one.
Thanks in advance for any help.

what rom? how did you flash said rom? Full wipe of data/cache/dalvik? did you restore ANY data or settings with tibu and if so which ones? to me this is sounding like a bad flash. back-to-kill will only take out the active application, notification and sms retrieval is a background process and not susceptible to that.

The rom is The Collective's Redemption. I did do everything mentioned above and the only thing I used tibu for was to restore my apps, but not to restore phone settings. I haven't tried to reflash, and maybe that will be my fix. I still want to see if others might have had this happen to them.
Thanks for the suggestions Darunion.
Been running( mostly) Red for a couple of weeks. I have not seen that issue. The first flash of it did have some strange notification behavior. The contacts app would let me assign ringtones to individual contacts but would still play only the default ringtone when I got a call. Everything has been working properly since the second flash.

Thanks Gato, I'll flash the new Alpha 8r3 and see if it corrects my problem. If not, I'll post back here.

Reflashing seems to have fixed any notification problems I had.

I recently just flashed the embryo 5.4 rom and its a great but the only problem is I can't make the notifcations vibrate for anything. I've made sure the vibrate function is enabled everywhere ( under the settings, messaging app, etc) the intensity is all the way up and still nothing. I also have the vibrate on screen tap funtion on and that doesn't seem to work either. I've flahsed this over twice already, no reboots fix it. I'm out of ideas. Anyone have any idea how to fix it? I've searched around on here and the web but no answers

Not sure if this ROM has profiles, but I had a similar problem with CM9 a while back. Turns out I had enabled a nighttime profile by accident, and everything was set as normal, except I had vibrate disabled for notifications. Once I disabled and deleted all those profiles, everything was back to normal.
Ive been having the same issue with only SMS notifications. All others will sound/vibe normally.
Flash 5.0 base = working vibe on sms
Update 5.4= no vibe on sms
Any possible solution? Md5 checks OK.
