Universal, System-wise Vibration Control that is Integrated into Volume Control

Hello folks,
I'm currently having this concern for my Nexus 5, running Franco's Kernel and Power toggle for sound profile switch, i.e. no sound - vib - sound only - sound+vib.
However, I noticed that switching sound profile using Power Toggle only applies to limited apps. For example, the ringer of the phone is of course under control by this toggle. However, I noticed that this toggle fails to control the vibration behavior of other apps such as Gmail and WeChat. I'm sure there are more examples but these two apps are of my daily use so I noticed immediately. To clarify, I'm talking about the situation when the phone would still vibrate on incoming emails in Gmail, even though I toggled to no sound or sound only profile in Power Toggle. It looks like this has nothing to do with Power Toggle because Android simply handles vibration behavior on a per-app basis.
For this reason, I am looking for a solution to handle the vibration behavior of the phone on a universal basis. I'm trying to achieve the behavior of the phone that is similar to iPhone (excuse me), where I can completely kill the vibration of the phone on one click (or toggle of the hardware button). iPhone 4 was my last iPhone but this simple "kill all vibration" feature is still so good to me.
The only thing I find now is to tweak vibration strength within the Franco Kernel settings. But we all know it's not an on-the-fly operation. I have to go into FKU app, hit Kernel Settings, and enter 0 for vibration amp. I wonder if there is any app that can integrate this operation into sound profile toggle, so when I toggle it into "no sound" or "sound only" mode, the vibration amp is automatically set to 0.
I know this sounds like a hassle but I really cannot think of another way of implementation, because it looks like Android's vibration is not universally controlled from the start? Correct me if I'm wrong, as I have no idea of coding or anything. Meanwhile, if what I guessed is true, it looks like the only viable solution is to find an app or widget that toggles between sound profiles while being able to set vibration amp to 0 through tweaking the Franco Kernel.
Thanks for your help!
Anyone? No one is annoyed by vibration when you want to set your phone completely silent?

[Feature Request] Add option to disable the proximity sensor during phonecalls

Would be possible to add this in the dialer settings? There are phones (e.g. galaxu nexus) that my sometimes get an SOD when in a phonecall due to a faulty batch of prox. sensors
feature request: could it be possible to ad answer call with home button in Omni rom under accessibility services, going forward its a very useful feature. Saves time from swiping to answer and decline. So can this be an added feature. Also a feature to be able to control the CPU overclocking underclocking and all that in the performance options of Omni rom.

Alarm questions (Remove vibration and voice dismiss)

I have the settings on my Gear S3 set as "Sound mode: Sound", and "Vibrate with sound" is switched OFF. However, whenever my morning alarm beeps to wake me up, it definitely still vibrates making an annoying buzzy sound on my bedside table! Does anyone know if I'm stuck with this vibrate for alarms, or is there a way to definitely remove the vibrate feature from the alarms?
Secondly, it would be great if I could dismiss an alarm with a voice command rather than having to do so by sliding my finger across the screem. Anyone know if there's a way (or and add-on app) that will allow me to dismiss an alarm with my voice? (S-Voice does not ofer such an option at present as far as I've found - or maybe I just need to use the correct verbal command?)

Switch ringer mode without slider

Hi all, i've bought this amazing device coming from an s9+, so i miss the toggle to get vibration and silent mode.
With my case (unicorn beetle pro) i cannot access easily to the slider, And i was looking for something that can bypass this limitation.
I've found this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cgollner.quicktiles.
This add a quick toggle to change the ringer profile.

Ticwatch E3 > WearOS Timer: How to set to vibration only

Hi, I seem to be loosing my mind. I am using the Timer app on my Ticwatch E3 and would need the timer to just vibrate, no sound but it does still ring on timer. Here is what I did:
- tuned off the speaker (in the pulldown from the top menu)
- set all sounds to zero: media, alarm, ring volume are all set to zero
- set watch ringtone to: no sound
Any idea how I might be able to achieve such a simple task? I basically run my watch silent all the time, I do not use any sound so if there is a general way to just kill the sound and keep vibrate only, that would work too.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated...it is driving me mad!!!
does you mean the alarm clock, wich is implemented on the watch? I use my ticwatch E3 always with sound for my workout and disable the sound after finish....the alarm clock only vibrate only.....

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
no, i am referring to the Timer app. for whatever reason disabling the sound works for Alarm but not the Timer app.
I wouldn’t even mind running some code to doable the speaker all together
same issue here on my Ticwatch Pro 3
I used a Fossil before without a speaker, so I didn't notice this annoying behavior of the Timer
I would like to use my watch "vibrate only", how could an app overwrite the system setting --> no sound ?
