Bug or Feature? - HTC Sensation

Hello all,
I've noticed with my Sensation that whenever I reach someones voicemail the phone gives off a slight vibration. Similiar to the vibration that the Hero has when the feature to "vibrate upon connection" is checked. I'm not sure if this is a feature or just a bug in this new upgrade of Sense. Does anyone else have this?

It's a feature in a lot of phones. It's vibrate on connect. You should be able to disable it in the call settings.

Yea, I actually looked for that option to change it in the settings, but there isn't any sign of one. I'm aware that a feature like this is on alot of other devices, the only difference here is that there is no reference to that feature in any of the phones settings.. That's why I'm uncertain if it is actually a feature or just a bug

Ring & vibrate will not stay set

I am wondering if anyone knows how i can get my vibrate-ring to stay set that way, i can set it taht way but it always go's back after a few calls or resetting my device. i searched but could not find the answer i would appriciate any help. thanks
its a known bug for CDMA/Sprint... my friends Tmobile TP2 don't have this issue
I contacted HTC about it. They said:
We are currently aware of this issue and will be addressing it in the next firmware update. Please keep an eye out at www.htc.com/us under the Support Tab. Pick your device from the dropdown. When software updates are available they will be posted there.
So, it's not a big deal for me & will be gone when we get WM 6.5.
ok, well thanks for that info, atleast i know its not just my tp2..
I was having the same issue and found this fix over at PPCG, haven't had a call yet to test it but from what I gather it works.
EDIT: works fine for me.

This was a huge irritation for me. THANKS for posting the fix!
yeah, seems to happen if you put it on ring and vibrate, then later turn your volume down to vibrate only and then turn your volume back up. it will then be Only set to Ring. Doesn't seem to affect text messages though. I will check out this fix and see if it works but above is how you reproduce. Set it to ring and vib, then go adjust volume to vib, then back up and then go back in and see what it is set as.
Works great! thanks!
thanks for the quick fix find, lwrdrchvy2.
Ring Vibe Fix Doesnt Work on WM 6.5 Sprint ROM
I have the same issue. My HTC Touch Pro 2 with Official 6.5 ROM will not stay on VIB for ringtones and will not VIB for SMS. I can 'check' them and then I can go back into settings and they are unchecked! This 'fix' is not working for me although it DID work for WM 6.1 on the same phone. Any help? Please! I need VIB & RING for calls and SMS!
Thanks!

Chaohliu, I see this but I'm unclear what it does?
Bengermino, did you load the cab before trying to set it in WM6.5 with the new ROM functionality? That is the impression I got when reading your post. I apologize for being 'mr obvious' but I haven't experienced this issue [with "notify me...." checked] since I flashed WM6.5 onto mine. If my impression is right, then try the following steps. If I'm wrong, don't waste time reading further down this post.
Settings
Menu
All Settings
Sounds and Notifications
Notifications
Select event I selected Messaging: New MMS, and the following steps are related to that choice.
Check 'Play Sound'
Check 'Vibrate'
Click OK in top right corner.
Good luck with resolving this!
once you uncheck that box, it seems to make ring and vibrate stick. i wouldnt bother with the cabs and stuff when this is the most effective solution. not sure why that is, but ive done it many times and it works.

Vibrating dialer....

Rooted and ran ruu....updated and now I get the annoying vibrate when I hit a number on the dial pad. Seen posts elsewhere about it. Anyone else confirm? Am I missing a setting somewhere? (and yes vibrate is off on typing input) I was pretty sure that when I first got the hero it did not have that feature. If that is how HTC does updates then ewww. If there is no setting someone please remove it in a ROM!

Wow you're right.....! I'll have to look in to removing that for a future release of fresh rom. It was for sure not on there before, but I did post in my thread that changes in the files (even though small) were made to every single stock app.

You have to turn off haptic feedback.

ok maybe i = nub, but the only vibrating feature i have found on phone and in manual is for the typing input, which is already off. Where is the haptic feedback option? i have looked through every setting at least a dozen times....maybe i just have setting blindness

That's just the setting for when you use the keyboard. The keypad is different and it wasn't like this pre-update. It's a bit laggy and annoying.
I agree, been anxious to see what/if HTC says anything about the *new* feature....and thanks flipz for takin a look, and other devs for their awesome work on roms!
you can download "Spare Parts" from the market and turn off haptic feedback from there. May or may not help your issue.
Unfortunately spare parts does not disable it...doh
/bump!
With all the juicy ROM talk and requests....since the MR the vibrating dial pad is horrible. #1 on my list for what I am looking for in a ROM.
Any updates on how to disable vibrating dialer???
It is part of the Sprint RUU update. As far as I know there are no manual options to disable it from a user stand point The devs might be able to find a way to disable it im not sure.

How do I turn off vibrate on the phone dialer?

any suggestions? ive already turned vibrate off on the keyboard and that fixed alot of the issues with the phone.
I know it's not a standard option. Whether or not it can be achieved with root access, maybe someone else can answer.
seems to have been added with the 156 update.... if you find out please let us all know. maybe with the kernel out it can be addressed
Ive been wondering the same thing.
im amazed that this isnt an option already. that vibrate function slows the phone phone down bad!
I was going to get rid of my phone for this reason and the keypad choppiness
This would be so big if someone can come up with a way to disable this...
i dont think you can without modifying the dialer

That doesn't turn of the vibrate for the initial time you open up the phone and dial a number.

Device still rings with vibrate on

So, me and my friend both have the oneplus 7 pro from t-mobile. My phone is rooted and his is not. Recently, we've both encountered the issue of setting our phones on vibrate via the slider on the device then, only to find, our phones will still ring. We're both on the latest 9.5.13. Anyone have
recommendations on how to fix the problem?
You want no ring, slide the switch up again to silent

That's not the correct answer! When I slide mine up to vibrate my phone does not ring...it only vibrates like its supposed to. When you slide it up to the top it doesn't ring or vibrate...like its supposed to. I do not know why theirs is not working properly but your comment is just wrong.

Well too bad.
On mine bottom it rings, middle vibrate only "no ring" and top neither.
It your devices are not working contact One Plus
Is contacting the manufacturer the right answer ?
The issue may be with the sms app you're using. I remember google's message app and the default OnePlus sms app had different behaviour for me

I just so happen to use Google messages. How did yours react?

The same way you're experiencing, I would set the slider to the middle position for vibrate but the device would still ring for text messages. This is the reason I switched back to the default messaging app.
Try changing apps and see if it's any different.

Incoming call screen not showing

Hello, on my new zfold2 the incoming call screen does not show when calls arrive. The phone rings, but the lock screen remains, basically i cannot answer the call until I unlike the device, go to the pull down menu and then see the incoming call to be able to answer it. I've searched whether there is a setting for this, but nothing...anyone can help me? thanks.
Same here. Fix?

I have not found anything yet. Must be a setting issue, i Hope!
Same here.
I've been using the Google dialer since using this phone and have had no issues. Not sure if this is really the answer that you're all looking for, but it may be a workaround for you until the stock phone app is updated.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer
I too was facing issues with the stock phone dialer, though the issue was different. It was not registering my touch or registering it after repeated attempts while wanting to make calls. Touch screen otherwise works fine.
Using a different Dialer now - True Phone app. and all issues of touch have been sorted out.
I had that problem, turns out for my problem was that I had do not disturb turned on. Doubt that's the same for you guys but just thought id share. Thanks.
Have you found any solution?
