I just got my Idol 3 today and I figured out how to turn off most vibrate options. However, it won't turn off for notifications. I have turned the volume down and tried to put it on silent, but the vibrate stays on. I haven't seen anything in the settings that would help, either. Is vibrate always on? Is there even a way to turn it off? I just don't want my phone to vibrate and disturb me when I'm sleeping or if I'm in a situation where no phones are allowed like a meeting or an exam.
Hangouts has vibrate on/off toggles in three places under its own settings. Your Google account has two toggles for Google Voice and Hangouts messages. Also, sms has a toggle.
silence vibrate
to put it in silent mode, press volume down until it shows vibrate, then choose what to vibrate - All, Priority, or None. Tap None, then chose for how long, or Indefinitely
I just figured this out while trying to silence those annoying ads that vibrate the phone
WOW... THANK YOU!! You have no idea how much this helped my life!
I would also like to know if you can turn off vibration but not have it on silence

the volume buttons... on the side... can fix that for you. press the down button until you get to the "vibrate" setting... and um, press the up button to turn the ringer back on and away from the "vibrate" setting -- the more times you press the up button the louder your ringer will be and visa versa until you get to the silent mode :/
that silent mode in the notifications section is just pointless in my opinion :/
I also had this problem today at doctors office, and missed a call.
I'am new to this phone and forum, but found this works. This is just one way,
I'am sure there are others too.
From Home Screen, Select Menu, Select Settings, Select Sound & Display
Check Silent Mode to "ON"
Check Phone Vibrate to "ON" (I leave this "ON" all the time anyway)
This way you only have to toggle ON & OFF the Silent Mode, as the Vibrate
always stays "ON", unlike if you use Silent from the Notification Screen. I don't
know why.
I'm hoping there is already and answer to this question but I long for the winmo days when i had the option to silent my phone without vibrate, now it seems the only option is volume up or silent with vibrate, sometimes I need the phone to be silent without vibrate, like when i'm interviewing or a in a training class and people near me don't need to hear my phone vibrate incessantly.
is there an option to put the phone on silent with no vibrate?
i've been using my wp7 hd7 for several months

settings - ringtones + sounds - turn both ringer and vibrate to off. should work.
You can disable vibrate there.. and to switch between ringer and silent press vol up or vol down and tap on the bell icon in the top right of the pull-down shade..
I wish we could go from vibrate to silent right from the volume control though....
Sent from my SGH-i917 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
I'm only using NoDo, but I'm pretty sure if it's set to vibrate, and I turn down my volume all the way, it won't vibrate at all.
I've been looking all over xda but can't seem to find the next thing:
Is there allready an app or a homebrew app available that let's WP users mute their phone very easily? As well as sound ass vibration.
It is pretty annoying I always have to change it in the settings.
Regards!
There is a volume-control app (in the dev&hacking sub-forum, I believe) but I admit to finding the request odd; why not just hold down the Volume Down button? If you have vibration enabled and want to turn that off too, you'll also need to turn on the screen for a sec (no need to unlock it, though).
Normally my phone is on vibrate + ring
When I'm in a normal meeting it is on Vibrate only
When I'm asleep/ important meeting/... its muted completely. No vibrating, no ringing.
It is pretty easy to switch between the first two. But to get it completely muted I always have to go via the ringtone settings.
If I hold the volume down to zero it will always keep on vibrating. I don't seem to get your point?
Ah, my bad. It used to toggle between Vibrate and Silent when you tapped the button on the screen. Now it just toggles the ringer; you can't disable the vigrate from there anymore. Dumb...
Hey folks, I've switched from an iPhone 6s to the Pixel. Zero regrets about that decision but I'm really missing on feature. The Silent/Vibration Mode you can activate with the switch on the side. Unfortunately the do not disturb mode kills all vibrations, when you're getting called f.e., but I would still like to get notified when getting called but just the vibration not the sound. Do you have any ideas, because I haven't found anything in the settings. Thanks in advance :highfive:
My phone never makes a sound, I just have it on vibrate only.
Use your volume switch and slide the "Ring" slider all the way to the left. If you hit volume down from there, it can go into do not disturb mode. Volume up again will put it back and vibrating only.
Also, if you go to Settings > Sound make sure that 'Also vibrate for calls' is turned on.

Hello guys
So it happened to me that I left my silent slide up all the way and forgot to bring it back on ringer mode and next day I missed the wake up call from work.
I tried IFTTT app and it can change your phone ring volume to 100 at the time you want but since the slider locks the ringer volume IFTTT app can't change the volume.
Is there anything to do about it so IFTTT app can change my volume even when the silent slide is up?
Thank you guys in advance!
