Vibration on Email/SMS too short - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

I have my S2 on the Beast rom. I have the vibration intensity turned to max, but when the phone is on vibrate mode (no ringer), the vibration for SMS and email is VERY VERY short. How do I make the vibration longer? I cannot find a setting in menu to make it longer. Is there an APK that I can install to make it longer?
Thx.

if you go to settings , there is an option to customize the vibration

Correct, the intensity. Not the length.
So, lets reiterate: I have the vibration intensity turned to max, but when the phone is on vibrate mode (no ringer), the vibration for SMS and email is VERY VERY short.

Pop-up SMS will let you lengthen vibration/frequency but only on SMS not email

SMS and Gmail Alert Notifications (Sounds)

Am new to Android and can't work out how to turn off sound notifications for emails yet retain them for SMS text messages?
I get a lot of emails that aren't urgent (an can read in my own time) but would like to still know immediately when a text comes in...
Cheers
Yeah go into e-mails and then press menu then go to more then settings it's in there. Notification settings, sounds OFF.
In the email applications you can set the ringtone for email notifications to silent? Presumably that allows you to keep SMS notification sounds.
The way i described allows to keep sms sounds.

[Q] Remove battery full notification

Hi Guys, I am trying to remove the notification for battery full. I charge overnight and when the battery is full it vibrates like an id.ot, waking me up most of the times!
There was a thread but now it`s obsolete... Come on, can it be that there`s no easy fix for this? I even googled, but pointlessly!
Thanks
It's not ideal but I just set the notifications ringtone to silent in the main settings menu and then set proper notifications separately in messaging, gmail, etc.

I would like to know too... That wake me every time. I dont want to put on silent since I want SMS and cakk to wake me.
Thanks all but I wish there was a better solution. Can it be that there`s no hidden flag in the system configuration?
My current solution is to put the phone on a soft thing so it doesn`t wake me up...
Settings > Sounds > Notification sound
Set it to Nothing
Freely translated from Dutch
Oh, and I can set SMS Notification to something else than "Default" (since Default is now "Silence")... pretty nice!
Thanks for the idea HaTeNL!

If you don't want it to vibrate in silent mode then just change your vibration settings to not vibrate in silent mode......

Any luck with solving this?

Solved:
One just need to additionally deactivate the vibration, either from the settings menu, set it to never vibrate or only when not in silent mode, or with an extra widget like one of the many available in the market.
Enjoy!

i downloaded the app timeriffic from the market and that made two profiles.
one, from 22.00 to 06.00 with no vibration and message sound disabled and the other one from 06.00 to 22.00 with vibration and message sound enabled.
works fine.
That's fine when the phone is on but when's off it stills vibrates.
I scheduled the phone to shutdown every night at 23.00h. Sometimes, I charge at home during the night. Even if the phone is downstairs, I can still hear the notification vibration repeating itself over and over again.
The solution is to put the phone on a non-vibrating surface (usually the same USB cable used for charging the phone)
I used "droidessentials" .. uncheck the "Alert When battery full".
The Apps state it won't work with Samsung devices.
Tonight I will try..

It has to work! The first option in the notification sound thing is "Silent" (translated).
Put it off Silent Mode and then change the notification sound. Must work.
Hey guys, wasn't here on these forums a thread of someone that did an app or mod just to remove the battery full sound??
I have read that once there was it!!!

silencing issues?

Hi everyone,
I've searched the web and cannot find an answer to this, so looking for help...
My X10 had a sound option, vibrate option and silence option. This worked for me because I set all my email to vibrate when the phone was on vibrate only, and at night I'd easily switch it silent so there would be no noise, period.
The Ion vibrate options are "always, only when silent, and never". I don't want the email to vibrate always, and if I silence the phone, it vibrates which causes the phone to go off at night when I get emails internationally. I don't want to set it to "never" because there are times when I'm in a meeting I just want to be alerted to an email without a notification sound.
Am I missing something here? Sorry about the basic question, but I cannot for the life of me figure this out!

Ah, found out it's a thing from 2.2 on. I downloaded some apps that work around the issue. Thanks!

Silent mood does not work for messege alerts

I have updated my Note 2 to Jelly Bean 4.1.2 but i got a problem that when i switch my phone to the silent mode from the drop down menu it makes the incoming call alert silent with no problem except that the message alerts still give me the alert sound as if it is not in the silent mood.
Note:
I was not having this problem before upgrading.
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
I found that I needed to go into each app that I get notifications from and set them to silent/non vibrate. The main setting was being overridden by the app.
Thanks

Install Silent Sleep from Play. It will end all sounds from all apps.

Notification Vibrate Disabled if Ringer Set to Vibrate

Hi
About a month ago my phone stopped vibrating when I received SMS or whatsapp messages if my Ringer was set to vibrate.
Strangely, the option for notification vibrate becomes disabled or "greyed out" if i switch the ringer to 'vibrate'. (see pics)
It does vibrate just fine for a call- just not for notifications.
I am stock rooted, I was on 5.1.1 then updated to Marshmallow 6.0.1 -- no difference.
I've played with all the settings I can think of, with no help.
Any thoughts?
Apparently I'm not the only one, as I found this guy asking the identical question with a S6 edge on a different forum.
http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...ion-vibrate-disabled-if-ringtone-vibrate.html
Nobody?
It's a strange glitch- no one has experienced a phone that vibrates fine for a call, but doesn't give the option to vibrate for a notification or text?
Some notification vibration settings must be set for that app. The screenshot you posted shows that notifications are set to vibrate.

Ah! Thank you so much for someone finally replying.
I must not have explained the screenshots correctly--- In the second screenshot-- I have set my RINGER to vibrate (as in for the phone).... and magically ALL NOTIFICATIONS GO SILENT (for every app and including SMS) -- not even vibrate--- and I lose the ability to change them to vibrate.
It used to be simple. Ringer set to ring, Notifications (whether for SMS, or any other app like calendar or whatsapp) would also ring. Ringer set to vibrate- notifications (again for all apps and SMS) would also go to vibrate.
Importantly I also would have control of the relative volumes/vibrations in both settings.
Now I only have that ability when the ringer is set to ring. If i set the ringer to VIBRATE--- then the notifications get totally silent-- -and are 'greyed out' so I can't change them.
It's weird.
Maybe I can't seem to explain it clearly, but I'm trying.
Thanks for the reply.
I am having the exact same issue. Have you ever figured out a solution?

Sorry for the delay.
The answer is .... sort of....
The graying out issue never resolved, but magically it DOES vibrate now with messages. Perhaps that started to work with one of the updates I've installed.
Still seems bizarre to me, but as long as the functionality returned... i guess that is good enough.
