Are there any apps/mods that allow you to silence/mute an incoming notification tone like on the iphone?
For example you are in a meeting and get a text which sets off your text tone instead of reaching into your pocket, removing phone, unlocking it, and stopping tone you just reach in and hit the power button or volume rocker and stop the tone.
Didn't realize how much I did this on my old phone until I couldn't do it on my N2!

If you turn your volume all the way down it goes into vibrate

Why not just put on vibrate when in meeting?
It is in the toggles very easy to access

Because I don't want to have to keep toggling my phone settings on and off all day long when all I have to do is just reach in my pocket for brief second and shut it off at that particular moment.

It takes more than a "brief second" to reach in your pocket, look for the toggle switch on the iPhone and move it... And even then, you may have not toggled the switch in the right direction, thus leaving the ringer on by accident. Trust me, I've done this with all the iPhones I've had. It doesn't matter if the back side has a bulge or is aluminum to help you orient your hand coordination. Your mind would be too focused on not getting unwanted attention while you silence your phone.
The trick for the Note II (at least for stock rom) is hold the power button two seconds, then hold the down volume rocker down until it vibrates, which only takes another second. And viola, it's on vibrate mode.
Im pretty sure if you hit the volume rocker while a call is incoming it will silence.
Correct me if im wrong

You're correct, but I think he wants to toggle it to go on vibrate so if the person happens to try calling a second time, it doesn't ring again.

Hey, I was wondering if there is any way to some how decrease the vibration of this phone when you get a text message. Like with the iPhone you can make it so that there is a silent vibrate when you get a text or you can make it the normal vibrate. The vibrate of this phone is ridiculous, and sometimes i like that and other times i dont so i was wondering it there is some sort of app where i can toggle the vibration intensity.
Settings -> sound -> vibration intensity ?
(Go to home screen and press the menu button to get to settings menu)

Im not complaining about it, i like it alot but then i dont like it, example when i am school and i get a text message everyone can hear the damn thing vibrate.
The turn over to mute... does this work when the phone is facing down?
[mutes automatically all incoming calls] or do I have to physically flip it over?
I thought just by putting it face down it will mute everything incoming.
I could be wrong as ive never used this feature but i was under the impression its meant for you to be able to mute the ringer once someone calls. If you dont want it to ring at all just turn down the volume all the way or use the toggle in the notification window.

thanks guys!
So is there any way to press one button to make the phone completely silent? I was in class today and I used to notification menu to go in what I thought was silent mode. A few minutes later I accidently went into the galaxy s voice thing and that robotic ***** started shouting during a quiet class.... I tried using the volume rocker and no dice as well.
Edit:solved with simple sound widget. Thanks for the help.

***Your post made me laugh***
You could try that motion thing where the phone mutes when turned face-down. It's under Settings>Motion>9th option down
Not sure if it will work in every situation, particularly your robotic *****, but you can try....
I downloaded Simple Sound Profile Widget. Seems to work pretty well.
Sadly when this happened my phone was faced up so the motion thong won't work. I'll try the wigit though and see how that works out

[Q] How to use the volume button to go from volume --> vibrate --> silent no vibrate?
I had this on my Galaxy S2 and S1...I can't remember how I did it though.
I would like the phone to go from Volume --> vibrate --> slient with just the volume keys, as it is now I have to use the quick toggles to choose between vibrate and silent.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hrm well I am on clean rom but that's just stock debloated and perseus kernel. It's possible that functionality came from either of this but I don't think it did although of course I could be wrong. If I hit volume down it'll go from sound> vibrate> mute.

Stock drops the volume down and then to vibrate... no mute. As you drop the volume down, 1 step before vibrate still makes a tone, so thats not mute.
I came from a HOX, and that did the Volume down>mute>vibrate.
S.
For some reason I'm on stock rom and mine goes from volume->vibrate->silence.

I use power toggle for that, it's on play i find it the fastest way to go. Vol - silent - vibrate

Hello, can someone confirm this...? Make sure volumes are all the way up, and simply hold down power button till you get the menu to pop... Do you receive the sound you get when you receive notifications? It's weird because I never ever noticed it before and I'm new to nexus... I just want to know if it's glitching or if it's supposed to do that.

The pop with your volume up, defending on your notification audio, may just be your Nexus 7 trying to play audio thats slightly frequencies than your speaker is intended to play. It also could be a few other things with the speakers (Volumes too loud with that notification, maybe?), it isn't just the power button and you shouldn't have to worry.
No... It's because I enabled the accessibility shortcut. Thanks anyway haha
