Vibration for Notifications not working - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Ok, I've seen this issue as fairly common, but can't gets it to work. It's a GS3 completely stock running 4.0.2 and I've had it all of 3 days.
Majority of the issues others are having are with not having notification vibration on in messaging settings, which I have triple checked to be on. Sounds settings are all set for vibrate always as well, but it still won't vibrate for any messages or notifications other than calls. It isn't affected by the call/notification volume being on or off either.
It's starting to get frustrating, so if anyone has any suggestions or can give me some direction, it would best greatly appreciated. Also, I think I posted this in the right place and I couldn't find anything similar so I apologize if this has been covered.

Had the same issue. open messages and then (menu)>settings. scroll down to notification settings>vibrate and change to always or in silent mode.

Sound and vibration musted be checked in system sound settings.

It is. :/
Still no notification vibration regardless of "silent mode" status (it can be silent, vibrate only, or silent off- no vibration regardless).

Stupid question...is your vibration intensity down all the way for any of the 3 options?

Nope- incoming call and notification are maxed and haptic feedback is about halfway.

[Q] Notifications go silent on the Skyrocket

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

[Q] handcent 4.0 - no vibration on new sms

I've been using Handcent 4.0 for a long time. I just started noticing that I don't get vibrations on incoming messages anymore.
I'm stock (at the moment), GB, rooted.
I have set handcent to all of the proper notification settings, verified that the phone is set to "vibrate always".
I've rebooted a few times, etc... i've missed messages quite often lately because of this.
Any ideas on the cause?
Thanks!
Any chance your phone has been set to silent instead of vibrate under sound settings?

How to stop notification sound when receiving a text

Hello,
My phone is on a montioring system that sends me a text when a system is having a problem. I need the alarm to be long and loud so I am positive to hear it even if sleeping. My problem is when I get one I want it to automatically stop making noise if I pick up my phone, sweep the screen saver or anything that indicates I'm going to look at the message.
How do I stop the text notification noise if I'm actually looking at my phone?
Thanks

Thanks -no app - just native text messaging notification. I changed the default sound for text messages to a long loud notifications so I respond to emergency texts. I just want to be able to quickly shut them off when I get them.

Well after messing with the native messaging app I've come to the conclusion that its not that great
I'm running Verizon messaging when you hit the popup it kills the notification sound
It tried the kill service app but you cant kill what you can't see running

I don't know if this works for text messages but have you tried the 'turn over to mute' in motion settings? it works great for incoming phone calls.

Please some one help me

Hello guys I have note 10.1 N8000 4.1.1 each time I rotate screen or when I long press any icon on home screen or app drawer it vibrate
I try to disable everything related to vibration in settings > sounds but that dosen't help can anyone help ? Thanks in advance
Sent from my GT-N8000 using xda premium
Make sure everything related tl vibrate is disabled. Even check accessibility settings also. Then once you know all of it is off, restart the tablet. Hopefully That will do the trick. If not, there might be an app causing it.
There is a setting in power saving that allows you to disable vibration system-wide, overriding all other settings and apps that may vibrate.
I did but didn't find anything related to vibration in accessibility and it still vibrate I think I will live with it :\

[Q] I can't get SMS via Hangouts to stop vibrating with sound on

I'm not sure what's going on but I can't get vibration off with sound on when SMS comes in via Hangouts..
The most obvious culprit is in the Hangouts settings themselves.. under the SMS section it clearly says vibrate..
Which I have unchecked.. & rechecked to uncheck again...
It's not helping
I didn't see anything in Sound settings that looked helpful.. or G3TweakBox..
That's just me though..
Any advice ?
Maybe look under the Sound system setting?
