I couldn't find anyone else complaining about this which surprised me.
I have tried all ROM's so I assume this is a WM6 issues but in WM5 with my 8525 when using the vibrate function whether it be for phone calls or new emails etc it would be a nice long constant vibrate.
Now with WM6 the vibrate function is a wimpy ass short 3 vibrate pulses. I mean I carry my phone right on my belt and I can barely feel it go off sometimes.
Is there a way to change this in anyway?
It vibrates AND sucks and you Complain ??
(sorry, couldn't resist....)
HAHA
but its my phone not my girl
Man I can't believe I'm the only one that this bothers and I can't find anyway to change it :-(

LOL! 10/10
Finally usable vibrate, the wm5 constant vibrate was so loud and hard that it was impossible to hear ring tone beneath it
WM5 used to sound like a cow mooing if on a wooden desk.

Now that's funny
Anyway, to try and give a possible solution (cos I don't always just complain about people posting repeat questions ) I remember reading something about ring \ vibrate patterns ages ago...
If you look in the blue angel wiki reg hacks page (here) there is a section about a third of the way down about phone settings and there's quite a bit there.
I've not tried it but it seems likely to be the fix
Good luck!
Yes but that is for just the standard ringtone because I already tried it. That hack doesn't do anything to the vibrate function for new email notification..
So my search continues but thanks..

some people are hard to please
I love the three short bursts... just enough to tell me theres a message but not too much to make my trousers look like there's a ferret in there trying to escape (like in WM5)!

Honestly I thought the same thing at first but I have noticed recently that I am missing them because its just not strong enough..Heck if I could up the amount of times to like 6 maybe that might help also..
Ok so to change the vibrate function during a phone call ring its
Phone Ringtone Script [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]
Change the value of "Script"
Here's the code:
a - stands for display
r - repeat/replay the script again
c - sets the volume C50, c150, c100
f - means flash .. f1 flash for 1 second and f0 stands for flash continuously
p -means play ringtone
v- vibrate then incorporate te]with number to state how many seconds it will vibrate example. v3 vibrate for 3seconds or v0 for continous
w - stands for wait or pause then specify how many seconds like w3(wait for 3 seconds)
Click to expand...

So I figure with any luck I could find a registry setting for the vibrate on new email notification. The best I could find is under
HKEY CURRENT USER/CONTROLPANEL/NOTIFICATIONS
the ones at the top reprsent all of what you have for settings under sound notifications which I want but under the new email one theres no value called script.
Anyone else who is a bit more familiar with registry settings give me any ideas or anything?
thanks

I agree I could not stand the wm5 vibrate, I am constantly using im+ and that constant vibrate would freeze the device when I would receive simultaneous messages.
my phone is still vibrate like WM5, long and non-stop.
WM5 was too much, I definitely prefer WM6 vibrate, but think something halfway between would be better.
It seems to me that not only is it not continuous but it doesn't vibrate as hard, thoguht hat might be because the motor takes too long to get up to full speed, so the 3 bursts don't get it running flat out?
Definitely an opportunity for someone to put together a little application to make it easy to customise.
Has anyone been able to find where this is in the registry? I have reverted back to wm5 and would like to change it to the wm6 3 pulse vibrate rather then the continuous.
Has anyone figured this out yet?
The long continuous one of wm5 was really annoying (esp. when phone is sat on the desk) but at least I didn't miss calls / not see texts/emails arrive.
I would prefer something inbetween. Perhaps 2x 1 sec bursts.
I don't have WM6 yet, but have been reading these threads before I do apply it -- and THIS is why.
good thing you reported back nahgum. I agree it's long and annoying, but at least if ur in a position that you can't glance at your phone, you know whether someone called or txted.
For those saying WM5 is long -- it would be great to find a way to do something like 2 1 2 for phone and 3 3 3 3 3 for txt. MrDSL is on the right track, just gotta find the key -- then someone could probably whip a little gui to make it nice and smooth.
I have WM6 (Black Satin) and it still has the long long vibration, which is quite annoying.
Any idea how to change to the 3 short pulses mentioned in this thread?
The registry tweak is quite limited (cannot have pulsing vibrations while playing ringtone).
Thanks!
You guys should look into a program called "Phone Alarm". It allows you to change the vibration feature to your heart's content.
Hey guys, just as I mentioned in the title.... anybody have a fix if there is any???
Viagra? Or, new batteries?
Sorry, I couldn't resist.

When you enable vibrating mode the phone ringing feature shifts to silent. So thats why it goes to lowest level. You will notice if you will turn it back from vibrating mode it will takes it place back. And by the way it is not a hermes question. You can go to general discussion section of this forum to discuss such type of questions
Alright cool thanks..... and it was viagra!
When you switch to vibrate mode you will not hear any sounds or rings from your phone. But when you receive a phone call on vibrate mode you'll be able to change the in phone volume during the conversion when the sounds and the rings remaine in vibrate mode.
Sounds good thanks!!!!
When i'm in the car i want to get my spvM650 automaticly on speaker when i answer calls... is that possible?
...sort of...
I have a prog installed called Teksoft Speakerphone. This allows a button to be allocated to turn the speaker on.
You can even activate it without a call in progress so that it will answer on speaker. I use it all the time in the car.
It also comes with a today screen button type plugin - but as far as I can tell its completely and utterley useless....but the prog itself rules!!!
I have attached the cab - let me know how you get on....I know it works on my Orbit....

thats the only flaw I can find......it turns itself off once you have ended your phone call.
During a call you have to turn it off using the button in call status.
Its good for turning the speaker on - just not for turning it off again....you soon get used to it!!
While on a call I get a notification (vibrate) every minute.
This is really annoying both for myself and the person at the other end... Could anyone let me know how to turn this feature OFF?
Thank you

What's installed on your phone? It's clearly a third-party app doing it.
ok so ive installed apps such ass smart vibrator and vibseq i believe vibseq didnt even work .... the smart vibration is changeable.. but not rreally to my liking...... can anyone tell me other way to make the phone vibrate harder... i can barly hear when my phone is in my hostle.... hahhaahh
There are more punctuation marks in the world than "...". Lawdy, at least read what you're typing.
If your not "satisfied" with the vib motor, I think you're stuck getting a new "phone".

To add to this is there a way to make it vibrate multiple times for an incoming text. My police department sends me a text message for a swat callout but it only beeps or vibrates once. Is there a way to make it keep going off until I acknowledge it?

psalm462 - I believe "Missed Call" can provide the functionality you're looking for.
