[SOLVED] Vibrate Fail - Motorola Atrix 2

Anybody have any fixes for vibrate that doesn't work in silent mode? I had a feeling this had been failing for a while I've just confirmed it today. My messages app is set to vibrate only in silent mode and the general settings is setup the same. Is this maybe an ATRIX 2 bug? Weird.
The End.

Actually, I can't get it to vibrate in any settings configuration. The only way I know the hardware works is when choosing vibrate within the stock email app settings. It gives off a vibrate but doesn't work when I get an email. Does that make sense?
The End.

Sound Manager (which I love) has global vibrate settings that I overlooked. All is right with the world once again. ;-)
The End.

I had read this earlier and did not have a answer for you. Good to know you figured it out.

[Q] New phone won't vibrate

I am new to Samsung, and new to this phone, so maybe I am missing something silly.
I can't get this thing to vibrate! I have tried all the vibration settings (always, only on silent, etc.) and I have my gmail and voice settings to always vibrate, but the dang thing won't vibrate. Even the little vibrate icon in the notification bar lights up, and it vibrates when you turn off/on and when you volume down to silent (just as confirmation of silent mode), so I feel confident it isn't a hardware issue.
I just got it Saturday, and I have been testing out different profile managers. I have them all deleted now, but could one of them set something to not vibrate? Even though I have it set to vibrate in stock settings? I can't remember if it vibrated before I started messing with those profile managers...
Should I just factory reset and start over?
Put it on vibrate. Then go to your sound settings and make the notification sound louder. Then try calling your phone to see if it worked.
Should of posted this in q&a btw.

Have you tried turning your vibration intensity up?

Thanks for the reply. Sorry for the incorrect location.
OK, tried what you suggested. Looks like vibration works for phone calls but still no vibration for notifications.

Yes, vibration intensity is on max for all.
ETA: Ok, My wife has a brand new i777 that we got at the same time and I set up the same way. Her notifications weren't vibrating either, even though I had the settings set up that way. I checked the profile manager that was still on her phone (that I had had on my phone, but deleted) and vibration was unchecked. When I checked it, the phone vibrated as it should. Therefore, it looks like that app (Profile Scheduler) left something unchecked down inside the OS even though it is deleted and the stock OS says to vibrate.
I'm going to try to reinstall that app and check the settings and then uninstall again and see if that fixes it. Otherwise I'm going to have to factory reset.
ETA2: Ok. Looks like that fixed it! It changed my ringtone, but that is a simple fix. Much better than having to factory reset. Thanks everyone!

razr hd text notification sound issues

I found a lot of crap, but nothing useful about why when I turn ring to vibrate or silence I still get ring for text messages. I have to go settings- sound - notification. Y would moto do this to us?
Anyone have a way to silence ring and notification at the same time. With a fix, app, widget

I found settings extended by halfbit it gives the option to connect ringer and notification without extra crap on your home screen.

Did you try silencing it from the lock screen
A simple yes or no doesn't hurt anyone :-/
I use HD widgets for my little switches widget on my home screen and when i set it to vibrate only it does it for both my notifications and phone calls, the lock screen does the same thing like Christian stated.
Lock screen only silence the ring.

I'm having almost the exact same problem. My problem began when I installed a profile app, "Simple Profile Sound" I uninstalled it and I'm having the issue where if I put it on silent or vibrate the ringtone follows that command however, all my notification sounds keep ringing no matter what. I emailed the developer 3 times with no response. I have seen others that had the same problem with that app and have done a factory reset but that didn't help. Seeing this happen to you makes me think there's something else behind it. I've posted in a few different forums but nobody has come up with an answer. There has to be someone out there that should know how to fix this issue hopefully!

[Q] Call waiting sound notifcation

Hi,
I'm getting a strange issue with a relatives One S and trying to figure out how to address it. Whenever she is in a middle of a call and someone else calls in, the phone no longer makes an audible sound notifying her that there is an incoming call. She has to keep an eye the screen to see the visual notification instead, which results in missing calls since she is not looking at it during the duration of the call.
Is there a method to resolve this?
Thanks
Changed anything recently?

Check settings, call, additional options, call waiting and make sure it's enabled.

Update:
The relative told me this morning, the call waiting audio notification is working again.
In terms of if anything changed, yes I got the phone de-branded using the guide.

Ringtone/Notification Volume Question?

I have tried to search for this but haven't really found any solution. On my previous android phones when I go into work or somewhere that I want my phone on vibrate I would just simply hold the Vol Down key until it goes to Vibrate and everything would be silenced (ringtones, notification tones, etc.) but when I got phone calls, text, etc it would vibrate.
For some reason on this phone when I do this it doesn't control the individual "Notification" volume, so I have go in and manually control that myself. I guess for some people this might be useful to manually control them individually but to just quickly silence the normal things like ringtones & notifications. For me personally it's quite annoying to have to deal with them on an individual basis.
Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me out on this!
I'm also curious about this. I do the same thing. I put my phone on vibrate when I get to work which silences the ringer but if I do something else (I often play ads in Viggle for bonus points) that volume is untouched and must be silenced on its own...
I'm using CM10 currently. Not sure if this differs between roms.

Is there a settings / sound / volumes / link ringtone and notifications check box?
I haven't had either issue. If mine is on vibrate that's all it does, if silenced it's all silenced. Hmm.
Have you guys tried using a widget or the notification toggle?

Thanks Romman0! That option is not available, but just your keyword of "link" enabled me to find an app that does exactly what I needed! :good:

Would anyone be interested in a widget for this? I could get right onto developing it if there's a demand for it.

[Q] Gmail vibrate after 4.3

After upgrading to 4.3, my Gmail is vibrating every time I get a new email. I didn't have it set to do that before the update. I checked the Gmail settings for each of my accounts and the vibration notification is off. How is this still happening? Any ideas?
Somebody else has to have this issue.
You could clear data for Gmail and set it up again or try looking in Settings/Sound maybe there's something there. I'm not on TW 4.3 to try first hand.

I might have to try that after work today.
I cleared the data on the Gmail app and I am still getting a vibration on a new email. I attached a screenshot of my settings for that account. The vibrate is unchecked. My phone is set to vibrate mode right now. It has a sound that is supposed to play so is that maybe switching the sound to a vibration instead since I'm in vibration mode?
I just came across this too after flashing the stock rooted 4.3 ROM.
There seems to be no solution for this, and GS4 people have been complaining about it for a while. Haven't seen a real solution yet unfortunately.
In my case, my phone is on vibrate most of the time. When it's not on vibrate it can be nice to hear an audible notification when I receive a new email. But to be honest, audible Gmail notifications aren't that critical for me. So I set the Gmail notification ringtone to Silent and now my GS3 doesn't vibrate when I receive emails.

Same! Same issue. Really is annoying.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
OK, glad I'm not the only one that is having this issue. It's really annoying and I might just have to shut off the sound for it. Does shutting the sound off fix the vibration when you are in vibrate mode?

Yes, setting the notification tone inside the Gmail app to "Silent" will stop the phone from vibrating when you receive an email, while in vibrate mode.
