How do I get a silent mode instead of just a vibrate or loud?

Hold the volume key down till it says silent, or hold the power key, and on the pop up menu, select silent mode.

Vol key only goes to vibrate and silent mode turns it to vibrate too

In the sound settings you have to tell it to vibrate "Only when not in silent mode". That should fix ya right up
I feel stupid for not having checked that first, ok not that big if a newb. Im an idiot

If I do that how do I go into vibrate only mode?

Try using a widget like Silent Toggle Widget or Widgetsoid to control Sound/Vibrate Only/Silent.

If you turn that on, then when you press the volume key it goes Silent, Vibrate only, ringer,etc

2.1 Eclair had both Silent & Vibrate available from the volume buttons, while 2.2 has removed the silent option. As noted above there are widgets to workaround this but it was a "feature" google changed in froyo from my understanding.
I figued it must have been something of the sort

yes, this is very annoying but I am going to try out that widget, thanks Isira
guys, if you're running Froyo, you do NOT need to use a widget
go to Settings > Sound > Vibrate > and select "Only when not in silent mode"
*if you select "Never", your Epic won't vibrate... AT ALL*
that will allow you to have a completely silent ringer with NO vibration

Little late on that bud, check my post (#4). Your enthusiasm is refreshing.
This is super, super annoying. I want my Silent -> Vibrate Only -> Ring settings back using the volume keys, without having to resort to a widget. To rub it in my face, there's a "Silent Mode" from the notification slide down, but it only duplicates the functionality of sliding the volume the way down. How useful.
I used Silent Mode for when I was in class or a meeting and didn't even want it to vibrate. Vibrate for when I was somewhere noisy.
I thought it was annoying enough to have to check and uncheck "vibrate" for texts, cause they would vibrate even when then ringer was on.
I also wish silent mode would kill media. I've had a webpage start going off when I was browsing in class. Very embarrassing. :\
Is there an app or widget that hooks into the volume keys?

Me too. There are times I want it to vibrate (in a bar where I wouldn't hear the phone ring, in a theater when I'm on call, etc.), and there are times when I really want SILENT (my better half is a light sleeper, and just the vibration upon a text is enough to wake him).

Flash the mod in the dev section to restore that function. Works great on my mostly stock epic rooted with clockwork.

These will work fine on (mostly) stock ROMs, but may cause issues with custom ROMs which have their own framework modifications.
Not sure which of the custom ROMs currently include the patch, but feel free to request your favorite ROM to include it.
using winmerge was the easiest way i found to add it to a custom rom, without fear of messing anything up..
I have been looking but have not found the answer. Please forgive me if it has been posted already. I purchased the Mytouch Q about a week ago. I am looking to see if there is a way to change the vibration. I do not feel it or hear it when its on the table or on my desk. I had an Inspire before and the vibration was great. Also I have been looking for the LED notification. I would like for this feature to work. As for now I do not get the a flashing light to let me know if a text or missed call came in. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
When in the Text Message screen with all your messages displayed hit the menu button (the three bars button next to the home button) and go down to the Notification Settings. Then you can go into the Vibration Pattern and set it to whatever I recommend Multiple Long if you're having trouble hearing it. For the LED light hit the Menu button (Three bars) then to Sound then scroll down and you'll see the Pulse Notification light and check it.

About Vibration I've seen the same phone and didn't have such problem ... take it to tmobile store and show it to them... it might be something wrong with phone (But first try to go to setting and change the profile)
I have Vibrate (Settings/Sound Settings/Vibrate) set for always but my G2 (stock rom) no longer vibrates when I get a text. Any ideas on how to fix that? I spoke with T-Mobile, they walked me thru their troubleshooting but did not solve the problem.
It can still vibrate, as it does every time I re-boot the unit.
--------
SOLVED: Messaging/Menu/Settings/Vibrate (all the way at the bottom).
Did u try going to the mms settings and see if the notification vibrate is set to "always" vibrate I'm pretty sure that default is set to "never vibrate"
Edit: never mind didn't see it was solved

^ correct. Something that has been bothering me too. The notification settings should be a global setting as default unless an app overides it otherwise.

What I want is for when my phone is on silent mode I want my phone to vibrate when I get a SMS and when I have the phone finger on I just want the sound notification. Currently if I get a SMS it will play the sound and vibrate at the same time. If I turn the vibrate notification off in the messaging options it will not vibrate even in silent mode. I am using the stock sprint gb rom.

Anyone have any suggestions.
I think GoSMS might have an option for this. Not 100% sure though as I've been using stock messaging app lately and don't remember all the settings.

Hey folks Ive tried everything with this phone but just can't get it to vibrate and I really can't recall it ever vibrating. I've seen in other forums that others are having the same problems but there didn't seem to be a solid fix. The phone will not vibrate during calls or notifications of any kind when I have it set to always vibrate or vibrate during silence mode. I've gone to all of my messaging applications as well to select the vibrate function and it still doesn't work. Need help if possible.
Thanks,
go to sound settings and check vibration intensity...might be off??

Doesn't work, I have the intesity all the way actually. Also when I move the sensitivity levels the phone doesn't give any feedback. I think the vibrate engine may be blown.
Are you on power saving mode?
