Has anyone figured out how to turn off vibration mode PER CONTACT? I want to be able to have complete silence with certain contacts when they call in other words if the phone is in vibration mode and I have a silent alert for both text and calls if the phone is in vibe mode it will still vibrate. I have went into settings and contacts and everything else but still cannot set individual vibe mode per contact??
NO ONE else??

Go to contacts, click on contact you want to edit, click on edit and then scroll down, hit more and you get all the options for Ringtone, Message tone, and vibration pattern. Is that what you're looking for?
now if you want a little more control over messaged i personally use Textra as my messaging app, which gives me control to change things per person in the app itself as well and override the stock settings.

Thanks for the suggestion but I have tried that and when you go into edit contact, it does not give you the option to turn off vibe mode per contact and there were other factors with this phone that bugged me so I went back to my 6S plus.

Now i hv an issue which need u help. For my Nexus s, no vibrate appears when an sms or gtalk message comes if the silent mode is off. But, the phone would be vibrating if i turned on the silent mode. i set vibrate always in the setting of Sound. i also set the vibrate always in the setting of SMS and Gtalk. But, it doesn't work. i wanna the ringtone and vibrate both appear if an sms or gtalk meassage comes. is there anyone help me?
there are 2 modes
make sure you have set it to VIBRATE mode
if you set it to SILENT mode, it is really silent, it wont even vibrate, because vibration makes noise

Now the problem is that if the SILENT mode is selected, vibrate would come, if not, no vibrate comes. i wanna see that ringtone and vibrate come out together if an sms or gtalk message received without SILENT mode selected. but, it doesn't work. However, if an incoming call came, the ringtone and vibrate could come out together.
i had the same issue ever since I bought my Nexus S but the setting for vibrating when you receive a text message is in the Messaging app after you press the menu key adn go into settings
Messaging App --> Menu Key --> Settings --> Vibrate (Under the Notification Settings)
Hope this helps!!
I use audio manager (free version) from the market. It offers excellent control over all the global sound levels and vibration.
Sent from the future to put right what once went wrong.
My ringer is usually off and I can't keep looking at my screen (e.g., for NoLED) when I'm with patients. I've been unable to get vibration notifications of incoming text messages, although as far as I can tell I've selected everything to do with vibration in Settings.
Surely there's a way to get this that I'm missing.
in the sound settings, select vibrate and choose an option like vibrate only in silent mode or always. in the messages app, choose settings and select vibrate. choose vibrate only in silent mode or always

Right. I've done that (Vibrate Always in both Settings and Messaging), yet it doesn't vibrate for anything except calls.
be certain that notifications are enabled in the messaging app.
there was a similar problem on a couple htc phones i had. i used a program from the market called 'sound manager', i believe it was. then i set everything the way i wanted it, did a test and vibrate worked. then when i deleted the sound manager app the settings stuck and my messages still alerted via vibration. good luck.
I'm starting to think this might be a Gingerbread bug, man, cuz I don't get vibrations on text either
I used to think it was CM7 but I have the same problem on stock.
This seems like the dumbest thing in the world. How come the phone will not vibrate for texts when set on the Vibration sound profile if you don't have it set to normally vibrate when the notification sound is set to normal?
I don't need it to vibrate when I get a notification sound, but if I set my phone to vibrate, I expect it to vibrate for every single damn notification/call/etc, regardless of what it's set to in the Normal sound profile. It should override all normal settings.
You're right. Its been a feature of AOSP since eclair. Wonder why HTC removed that option.
do you have the box checked in messaging settings to vibrate when messages are received?

no, as I said, when I have my sound on, I don't need it to vibrate. It just baffles me that this doesn't automatically come on when the phone is set to Vibrate.
Is it possible to disable the vibrate notification when receiving e-mails (using the stock e-mail app)? I want the visual icon to show up in the notification bar with no sound, just NOT vibrate. I want to keep the vibrate notifications for MMS, calls, etc..just not e-mails. This seems like a simple request but I can't seem to figure it out.
If its anything like the Gmail app then open up settings, inside settings, click on your Address [email protected], Then its inside there...
( I don't use the email app, sorry.. just a thought )
Settings --> General --> Notifications --> Select corresponding account --> UNcheck "Vibration" (unchecked by default for me)

Thanks for your response. The "vibration" option is grey so I can't change it. It is off by default anyways, but it still vibrates.
This is driving me crazy. Any recommendations for a different email app?
Open email. Touch 3 dots in upper right hand corner. Touch settings. Open notifications. Select email account . Turn off vibration.

If you're like me and always keep your phone on vibrate, this is actually a far more annoying issue than you would imagine. (The same fix can be used for Google Hangouts.)
If vibrate is not currently enabled under notifications and your phone keeps vibrating at you, it's actually because of your notification sound. If you change the notification sound to "Silent", your phone will no longer vibrate.

Yes, I always keep my phone on vibrate. If I switch it to silent, wouldn't that disable the vibrate from sms and calls?
No, those will still vibrate. You don't want to switch the ring tone settings, just the notification sound for your email. Go into settings, notifications, and then for the notification sound select "Silent".
I have searched on the site and don't find this issue. Despite everything I have tried, I cannot change the from the soft, default Google Messages notification sound. I have even tried changing individual sounds on a person by person basis and that doesn't work. I have gone into sounds and notifications in settings, also tried by going into the Messages app. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Easy way just get Zedge and add new sound through that

I can change the system default with no problem but the default per contact is a fail, so I feel you. Same with other alerts, like my Google Cameras. Wil lNOT set a different alert sound than the system default

I can't even get the default to change. I have tried everything I can think of. Sounds and notifications, in the app itself, just can't figure it out and this is my 4th Pixel.
There are two locations for "setting" notification sounds for Google Messages as well as "default notification sound" UNDER "Sound and Vibration"!
Now if both of these are set to the same thing then everything will work OK. However, if the default location is set to one sound and the app setting is something else...then it's a toss up as to which will take precedence.
So here is my suggestion for two possible solutions.
Under settings>Sound and vibration>Default notification sound>My Sounds and select NONE. Now you can go to the messages app itself and tap on your avatar in the top right>Messages settings>Notifications>Other notifications>Sound and choose whatever sound you want. This will give you the sound you want for any messages you receive in the messages app. However, this will leave any other type of notifications such as a calendar reminder with NO sound (unless you assign one specifically to the calendar in the same relative manner as you just did with messages. I chose the calendar as an example because once you dig in and find the notification sound set for your calendar it is probably set to "Default notification sound" which you just set to NONE.
The second possible solution is to change the default notification sound to what you want and the messages app to the same sound. This will ALSO make all the other notification type sounds the same as in the previous calendar example.
Now you can always set the calendar to some thing different and it MIGHT work as you set it despite the default being set to something specific and it might not.
So of the two methods I have suggested the one that should work the best is to set the default notification sound to NONE and then go into each individual app that may give off a notification sound and give each one what you want. I hope this helps!
I am able to change my default sound to a different per app basis by going to profile picture and then clicking on message settings and select notifications then selecting behavior sound and more and from there select incoming messages then choose your sound for your messages. This is how google messages does it

Thank you for the detailed write up. I tried both solutions but still nothing. I even took this one step further and tried to sync the two with the ring sound so all three would be identical. However I can't do that because none of the tones in the ring match notifications or message sounds. I don't know what the glitch in my matrix is, but this is frustrating as heck. This isn't my first rodeo, and I refuse to believe I have some special P7P that prevents message notification modifications.

Can you share a screenshot of the "Behavior Sound" screen? I don't see that as an option on my P7P. Thank you for the response.
Here you go
Oh I forgot 1
I'm sorry I put it kinda step by step I just put it the way I would like to see it
Please let me know if I can be a further help to you
I also do not have a setting called "behavior sound"?
I wonder if it appears due to a particular setting or because of the model number of your P7P?
Here is a YouTube video telling you how

It is so weird, after playing with settings for days, yesterday I started hearing my phone doing the notification for when out Ring cameras detect movement. Since I don't always check the video right away, it took until this morning to understand now my message notifications have started using same ring tone. What is weird is I set that tone during the time of this conversation. Huh...
