[Q] How to change notification vibrate pattern? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to change the notification vibrate pattern so its not so long. I'm not talking about using a 3rd party app to change an sms vibrate pattern. I am looking for a way to change this at the base of the rom so any notification, whether it be for email or other apps like wordfeud, it will be my custom pattern. So if anyone knows what file I need to edit I would really appreciate it!

can anyone please help me out with this? i tried looking thru the rom but couldn't really find which file i'm looking for...
does anyone know if it takes editing an xml? or maybe build.prop? or framework-res? i have chompsms custom vibrate pattern to what i want it to be but i would like my regular notifications (wordfeud, google voice, gmail, facebook, etc) to be the same as my chompsms custom vibrate pattern but without using a 3rd party app because those are usually limited to phone calls and sms notifications.

Not sure where this can be set in the ROM itself, but I do know you can use Tasker to vibrate any pattern you want whenever you have a new notification (along with other things). Not as clean a solution as being able to change the default vibrate pattern (and Tasker is a paid app), but if you can't find anything else, could be a solution...

try sms popup, it isnt anything like chomp or handcent simply because all it is notfication and a really simple popup window. you can set the vibrate pattern, change the blink rate of the LED and change the icon. its really nice and i think youll find it great. there isnt a different inbox like chomp. its free in the market

It does a lot of what you've mentioned on a "per app" basis.

Lock screen sms

hi my friend has a htc desire, and when they receive an sms it shows the whole message on the lock screen....
is there a way to disable this?
Kind regards

You can "disable notifications", but that defeats the purpose.
I really can't remember a setting for "display content".
Bump?
on stock rom it is not possible.
if you would use for example RcMixS or InsertCoinS there is an option to use stock android lockscreen which doesnt show the message content.
other possibilieties are 3rd party messaging application like handcent or go sms. you can customize them the way you want

[Q] Developer request.....

I was a Inc 1 user and asked a few times for this but it was like no one understood what i was asking for. i was wondering if its possible or if a developer would take the challenge of altering the stock sms/mms apk so that a preview of the message doesnt show up in the notification bar. I know Go SMS and Handcent have the option of showing "new message recieved" instead of showing the text contents in a privacy setting but i would like to keep the stock messaging app. puhlease someone. it would be greatly appreciated....

not so sure what u mean, or if it's possible, why not try handcent or go sms? I know u want stock, but may be the only way,
If you go under Settings>Privacy, it gives you 1 or 2 options. I'm not so sure since I'm using newtoroot's Sense 3.5 ROM and that may or may not be different from what you're using. (yes, I'm advertising a Rom, and yes, you should totally go for this rom.)
Handcent SMS does this. You can disable the preview per contact or just in general. You would disable the notifications in your normal SMS app and then set it so that Handcent is the only app that does notifications for SMS and if you disable the preview feature, it will just say "XXX-XXX-XXXX text you" or something like that
I've used handcent and am currently go sms. Was just curious if there was a way to do it for the stock. Guess it cant be done.

Customizing Your Notifications/Ringtones On E4GT

I have been on the look out for sometime for an app that did what WhoIsIt did for customizing your Ringtones/SMS/Notifications and vibrate settings in Gingerbread for ICS. WhoIsIt currently will allow you set Custom ringtones and SMS notification sounds, but the vibrate settings are totally broken. Also the notifications for apps like Gmail that are supported in the program no longer work. In order to customize the notification sounds for apps, you'll need to change the settings in each app which can become time consuming instead of the central management that was provided by WhoIsIt in GingerBread. My current solution is to:
Use WhoIsIt to customize my Ringtones and SMS sounds. I then use ViBe to use custom Vibrate settings for specific contacts. And finally Notifications for apps like Gmail, I usually change the notifications in each one.
If anyone knows of a less involved solution for ICS based ROMS, please feel free to let me know, Also i hope I might have been somewhat informative to those that have ran into this issue when trying to use an App like WhoIsIt to customize there phone.
Just use Zedge works for me

I used to use Ringdroid, which from what I can tell, does not work on ICS either.

Support for more lockscreen notifications

Hi,
Currently the HTC lock screen will show notifications for the basic apps: Calendar, Mail, Messages and Phone..
it's really limiting... for instance I thought of using another SMS messaging app, but as soon as i discovered i can't see the messages on the lock screen no more... it really seem like i'm trading off one feature for another.
I really wish I could see Whatsapp noticiations, Gmail etc..
Any mod that enables more types of that? or do i have to replace the lock screen entirely? any thing that looks good as the sense one? thanks.
Would love to have WhatsApp notifications like sms notifications on my locksreen.
A mod would be great

Why can't I change the sms ringtone separately from general notifications?

Why can't I change the sms ringtone separately from general notifications? I don't want to use another sms app and I don't want to look at my phone every time a game or app wants to notify me of something. Am I missing something or is this really a basic functionality missing from ZenUI?
