How do I get a silent mode instead of just a vibrate or loud?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
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..
Anyone find a solution for customizing vibration settings when receiving SMS/MMS?
NO, handcent and go sms do NOT work. Actually, when setting a custom settings in those apps, vibrations stop completely.
I've tried tasker, but it's 1:10 that the vibration settings i enabled works. Only thing i've found tasker good for is, screen on when charging.
you want to get a vibration feedback, after the SMS has been sent?
or do you simply want to get vibration when a SMS arrives? (because that can be turn on/off by default on those Apps you mentioned)
is that what you are trying to do?
I think he means setting for haptic feedback like in CM....long vibrate...short vibrate ...millisecond tuning for vibration length...etc

what do you mean they dont work? i am using handcent and the vibration patterns work for me..i can change them to whatever i want (even custom)
make sure you are entering the format properly in handcent...its 0,______,______,______ (enter your off/on values [milliseconds], make sure there are no spaces)
might want to check your device if its not working for you...there is no problem with the app
I'm refering to custom vibration settings with receiving sms/mms. Default is 2 long pulses, id like to change that.
In handcent and gosms, you are able to allowed to enter custom vibrations settings ex: 200,0,200,0, etc. When doing so in both apps, vibrations stop completely. Also, their pre-existing options for vibration settings do not work either.
I'm just picky about how my phone vibrates when receiving sms/mms. I hate the 2 long pulses and wish it were just: 0,200,0
You obviously didn't read my post.. It does work.. It's cool though

You can download "SMS popup" from the market and mirror your stock messaging notification settings on it, disable the extra stuff like the actual sms popup feature, and when you get to vibration it has custom millisecond interval switches to adjust to your liking. Don't forget to disable notifications in stock messaging under settings and be aware that your screen won't turn on when you get a text as is by default with stock messaging there might even be a setting in sms popup to turn the screen on im not sure.
Hope this helps!

I cant believe more people dont want this feature as part of custom roms, heck even samsung roms.
my phone is on silent most of the day due to uni, and the galaxy s2 has the weakest most pathetic excuse for vibrations for recieved sms/call and i often miss it.
i realise gosms and handcent have this feature, but i dont like those bloated programs and i have privacy concerns with them.
I flashed the mrom aosp jelly bean And my phone no longer vibrates for texts and emails when on vibrate mode, only phone calls. Anyone know how to fix it or what settings I need to look up?
Thanks

I just tested and I get vibration for SMS, I am using Handcent though, not sure if it makes a difference.

Go into the messaging app settings and change the vibration from "never" to "always"
on the email, the gmail app should automatically have the notification, but try going into the settings for that. see what you find.

go into gmail app settings click on your email and it'll bring up the settings for notifications, same with messaging its in settings. I was going crazy over the same thing as soon as i switched over until I'd read that JB changed how notifications act so now every app has to be coded to vibrate on its own as opposed to having a system wide setting.

well I like it better this way since in theory it lets you have more control over the vibrate notifications of a lot of apps. The only issue is that a lot of the apps have yet to be optimized for JB.

The messaging app provides these three options for when to vibrate:
- Always
- Only when silent
- Never
Are there any apps or hacks that could enable the following behavior?
- If I set the phone to vibrate (using side buttons), the phone vibrates when I get a text message.
- If I set the phone to silent, the phone doesn't vibrate when I get a text message.
The only two situations I care about are Silent and Vibrate. I never ever use a regular ringer.
Everytime I reboot my phone, notifications for certain apps (like WhatsApp) will not vibrate when my phone is not in silent/vibrate mode.
To fix it, I have to open up LightFlow (you can also do this in Sound Manager v2) and set the vibrate setting from "Vibrate only when silent" to "Vibrate on"
I do this every time I reboot my phone. Vibration works fine for ALL apps when in silent/vibrate mode (even for apps that I don't want to have vibrate on in silent/vibrate mode). But only MMS & SMS vibrates properly without needing to do this "fix" everytime I reboot.
I've been having this bug on all AOSP roms since Jellybean first came out. Anyone else having this issue? Is this an AOSP bug? Or could it be something is wrong with my phone? I have done a full wipe several times only to find the issue still persists.
Check in sounds menu, should be an option there, also check individual apps, I know MMS has a vibration setting

I have "Vibrate when ringing" enabled in my sounds menu, I don't really see anything else that has to do with vibrating and notifications. My individual apps are set up properly (the ones I want to vibrate are set to vibrate always, etc) I just have to go into LightFlow and set vibrate to "Vibrate on" rather than "Vibrate only when silent" before it'll vibrate when it's in audible mode like I stated in my OP.. I guess you're not having this issue either? Can you test it out? Specifically it doesn't work with WhatsApp, hmm.. I'm starting to think maybe it's a whatsapp issue, I just tested with Gtalk and it works still. Can anyone confirm?

I have mine set for always vibrate, except during quiet hours, works fine. I don't use what's app so I couldn't tell you. Could also be the ROM you're running or a host of other things. If it's just one app, then it is doing it to itself I'd imagine

Can someone test this for me. If I have my note 4 with the sound on or in silent mode I get the moto 360 to vibrate showing a new text. But If the note 4 is on vibrate, the moto 360 will not vibrate to let me know I have a new text via the stock messaging app. So frustrating! Please help
It is not dependant on the "Global" mode...it is dependant on the "In-App" setting.
i.e. Whatsapp: You need to set it to "vibration - on" in the app settings, so even if your "global" setting is total silence, you will still get vibrations on the watch.
Hope it makes sense.
Interesting, I have all vibration disabled on my Note 4, both globally and in-app, and I receive vibrations on the watch just fine when the phone is set to Silent.
I am talking about stock messaging app. Yes, you're getting notifcations when the phone is on silent or if the volume is on. But, if you put your phone to vibrate you will not get the moto 360 to vibrate from a new text message via the stock app
Thanks zhou for the response but I definitely have vibration on in the stock messaging app.

I have the same problem with the stock msg app on my Note 3 on VZW. I ended up using a 3rd party msg app and now it vibes and notifies on all three positions silent, sound, and vibe.
I have the Note 2 and the same thing happens when using stock messaging...Moto 360 will vibrate when phone is set to normal or silent, but when the phone is on vibrate the Moto 360 will get the notification but not vibrate. The stock messaging app is set to vibrate in settings.
I believe this is a problem for everybody but they just have not realized it yet

It's not a problem for everyone. It's a Samsung problem. Use a different SMS app.

Don't think everyone. I started a thread on AC and someone with a Note 3 claimed that it worked in all three positions. Silent, sound, and silent..
