One thing I really liked about my T2 out of the box was the fact that receiving a text message did NOT wake up the phone.
All of the sudden, it is waking up with every text. I checked to make sure that somehow DisableSMSWakeupEvent hadn't been changed to '0', but it is still set to '1'. Did a soft reset, rechecked the registry value (it's still set to '1')but the phone continues to wake up with every text. I also checked in event notifications to make sure I hadn't inadvertently checked the 'Display message on screen' box.
I had installed Advanced Configuration Tool a few days ago, but uninstalled it the next day after only checking out the options and didn't change anything with it. My only other recently installed software is SPB Time, but it's been in place for more than two weeks so I don't think that's doing it. And I'm *still* using the stock AT&T rom.
What gives? I don't want my phone to wake up when I receive a text!
I only fixed this when I used advance config to tell it to wake up on text, softreset, don't wake up on text, soft reset, and then it finally worked how I wanted it.
try deleting the string and then recreating the dword string. and then soft resetting.
i dont understand why you dont like your pro2 to wake up when the SMS comes in, how will you know a message has arrived????
this is a must feature of a phone,each person who are involved in thw world's business will require.
Hope you are not a spooky person,

It will still vibrate, beep etc, just not turn on the screen until you press the button.
Mine is doing the same. I agree with the OP
Why?
Because my phone lives in my pocket, and when I'm seeing patients or have my hand somewhere you probably don't wanna know about, I can't check every text as it comes in. If the screen turns on in my pocket, then I begin pocket dialing or other bad things. And THAT'S why I con't want my phone to light up when I get a text.
Besides, I have the LED set to flash with new message notification, as well as to vibe so I'll know I just got a text.
The good news is that after the problem has suddenly disappeared just as suddenly as it appeared. Guess I must have bowed down properly to the phone gods in my sleep last night...
You could try using S2U2...
That way you won't start 'pocket dialing'.

I do want my Tilt to wake up with every text and it isn't. I am new to this, can you tell me how to make this change?
Loving the phone...can't wait for JB....
Right now, running stock AT&T ROM...I'm got a few issues / bugs to report...wondered if anyone else sees these or knows a fix:
1. The notification sound for Calendar reminders can't be changed. It lets me pick a new / custom sound but it does not save the setting. Everytime I go back in it is back to the default.
2. Incoming calls - often as soon as I grab the phone (usually from my pocket but sometimes when it was just sitting on a table) the call is rejected as if I bumped something to do this. Only the phone is locked and I did not hit any buttons. I really doubt I keep hitting the red reject slider and sliding it across the phone accidently....not sure what is going on.
3. Texts - they seem to not come thru sometimes and I also rarely hear the notification or feel the vibration.
Anyone else having these issues?
Bump

1. Are you pressing the "OK" button (next to the "cancel" button) on the calendar ring tone selection screen? I've confused myself and pressed the "back" softkey, which wasn't lit up, since it was below the "OK" button thinking i was pressing ok (or because I often unthinkingly default to pressing back to exit a screen). Otherwise this should be working, if it really isn't saving you have a buggy device...
2. I've only had the phone a few days and picking up calls has been no problem (stock rom, not rooted yet).
3. I feel you on the text alerts, but i get them on time and get a vibration just not the default vibration "tone" i selected. Generally late text messages aren't an issue with the phone more likely the provider, but your two issues above may indicate the device is at fault.
I can't change my notification sound on calendar either. I called Samsung and they said to hard reset. I guess their tech support is just as useless as Motorola's. I wish I could be that lazy at my job; "well customer I see you have a problem, have you tried putting it back in the box and pulling i back out? That's all I can recommend."
Thanks...

Definitely hitting okay....it shows the correct ring tone....but when I go back into settings it is gone.
Answering calls is getting better....disabled the motion controls and some other things to make it hard to accidently reject the call.
We'll See...

Hoping Samsung's Jelly Bean release fixes these issues....or maybe a patch release or two after JB. If not, I will try CM10 or a JB-based AOKP build when they get a little more polished.
This issue is fixed in the latest ATT OTA update http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801294#post31801294

Thanks for point this out! I had forgotten about it! The fix seems to have worked for me. Would be nice if all undocumented fixes like this were in one neat bullet-ed list for us to review....
Nah, then Samsung would have to acknowledge that they told a bunch of gullable people to factory reset for nothing
Two weeks ago, toggling the silent mode settings between Silent, sound only, vibrate only, and sound-vibe controlled the ringer and all the notifications. So, any app that generated a notification would follow this setting. You know, like every phone every made since their advent.
My phone just came back from samsung (screen repair) with MD4 everything. I also put MOAR on it. Now, that toggle no longer controls the notification vibration. The only way to set vibration for notification is go into the individual application settings. This is ridiculousness. I thought I could make a workaround with tasker, but "Vibrate on notify" is also no longer available.
Can anyone verify this is the way it is? Or is something wrong with mine?

I'm not sure if this will work as I'm on AOSP rom but try this.
Under Settings/Sound - select volumes, you should get a popup for volume settings. There should be an option for "Link Ringtone & Notification Volumes". Select that and notifications should follow the same rule as phone ring tone. Hope it works for you.
Bumping this. Does anyone have a solution to this complete epic failure of engineering by either google or samsung? It's absolutely absurd that if I want to cycle vibrate on and off, I have to go into 5 different apps, dig through menus of each app, and change each app's individual notification settings.
After you received the Device back from Samsung, did you happen to notice if the Toggle worked correctly ? I'm currently on MOAR, and everything works as it should. Did you do a Clean install of MOAR ? Meaning a Full Wipe System - Data - Dalvik Cache -Cache - Factory Reset ? Did you verify the MD5 Checksum of the Rom before Flashing ?

When I sent the phone away, it had MOAR 4 and whatever was prior to MD4.
When I got the phone back, it came with MD4. I clean flashed MOAR 4. Not more vibe on notify. I didn't check that before I flashed, but presumably that feature went away with MD4.
Clean flashing to MOAR 5 still lacks that feature.
So this leads me to believe it is an MD4 "feature".
Ok so I think I understand you a bit better now. You are not saying that the Toggle is broken, you are saying that when you use the Toggle certain apps do not respond accordingly. Have you tried : Menu - Settings - Sound - Ringtones and notifications. Make sure that Vibrate and ringing is checked.
No no. The problem is that THERE IS NO TOGGLE. The toggle for selecting notification vibrate no longer exists. It isn't there. Taken away. No option, no selection, no checkbox, no nothing. And tasker shows it as not available so I can't work around it either.
Look at these two screenshots. There is nothing to set notification vibrate, and there there is nothing to link notification settings up with ringer settings. All gone. The Vibrate when ringing checkbox controls only the phone call vibrate and has no effect on notifications.
The only way to control whether you get a vibrate for notification, is to go into each application and manually turn it's vibrate option on. That application will then vibrate at all times. If I set the phone for silent, that app's notifications will still vibrate. If I set the phone for sound only, that app still vibrates. If I have the app's vibe turned off, and I set the phone for vibrate, I will never receive any notification since there is no vibrate for notification.
Make sense now?
Did you try changing it in Vibration Intensity ?

Sure I could go into vibration intensity and lower it down to zero. But that is not a toggle. There is no way to adjust that without going through all the menus and changing the slider. It will not change itself when I put the phone into vibrate. It will not change itself when I put the phone into sound & vibe. It isn't solving anything. The problem is the removal of the toggle.
You can try THIS , or maybe the one HERE.

Those just do the same exact thing the phone already does. Toggle the RINGER. Nothing to do with notifications.
I've been asking around about this too. It's really annoying having to change the notification settings in each app every time. Someone suggested a Tasker profile to change the vibrate settings in specified apps but I haven't figured out how to do it.
I feel like I have to be missing something dumb here. I can't get the G3 to be in vibrate mode and vibrate when I get a text or call. When I get the call the screen just lights up to the caller screen. It doesn't even vibrate when I have the ringer on. Under settings -> Sound, I have Silent mode set to vibrate then the Ringtone with vibration checkbox goes grey. This is what my sound settings are in the screenshot. What am I missing?

your not the only one i have missed quiet a few calls because this phone isnt vibrating
Good to know you are also having this issue. I just got it on Friday and I haven't dropped it. The phone won't even vibrate when I switch it into vibrate mode like my S3 did. It vibrates when I turn the phone off so I know that it can vibrate. It has to be a setting that we are missing. I am trying to stay away from a hard reset of the phone.
Settings-sound and click Vibrate. Turn strength up. I found it rather weak. So changed Vibration type to a loner ong and boosted strength some. Helps
idk. no problems on my side

It's not that. I already had that set to Vibrate. I get vibration from other apps like Facebook when I have a notification. I checked the default texting app and it's set to vibrate always.

Ok, now it seems to be working. I restarted the phone and it went through the optimizing apps screen. I wonder if it was having issues still after I tried switching to ART runtime. I switched it back to Dalvik yesterday but it maybe didn't optimize everything.
I've been having the same issue. It fixes itself whenever I restart but keeps coming back. I have the at&t version in case that makes a difference.

Having same issue, on rooted Verizon. That option stays grayed out...anyone find the answer to this?
I just updated to lollipop and I'm having the same issue. I can't get my texts or emails to vibrate at all. Picture in the first post is accurate for me. Vibrate mode active and notification and touch sliders are greyed out.

yup, that's the fix I also found for this problem. Restarting fixes it.
A new official update popped up two days ago and the vibration stopped working after it was installed. I tried rebooting, I even did factory reset, but still not working. Help?
No matter what I do after I set any ringtone or sound, go back a day later and find always that it resets itself back to saying no ringtone
