Is there any way to customize notification vibration settings - either turn them down, or off altogether?
I understand you can set individual app settings but ideally I want to get rid of vibrations completely - I've never liked them, and even when I think I've changed all my app settings every so often a notification pops up with a vibrate!
Is there an app or a ROM that can entirely disable vibration?
Cheers

Are there any apps that allow what are basically profiles, so when I have volume on I get normal notification sounds.. But when I am on vibrate mode it would vibrate?
Currently it is all or nothing for vibration notifications as far as I know.
Something also nice would be to customize notification sounds and vibrations even further depending on the notification type.
Thanks guys

I'd like this too, it seems like I can't get notification vibrations where I want them. The option should really be built into every app, IMHO.
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.
Does anyone know why the custom vibration or any vibration setting I set in options don't work for gmail notifications? I set 3 short vibrates, but gmail still vibrates one long one.
I have set custom vibrates in-app for the others that matter-- whatsapp and gosms, but I can't seem to customize the gmail one properly.
I would like to figure out how to change the one long vibrate for default notifications too. I believe the custom pattern you're referring to in the settings only applies to phone calls, not notifications. I wish there was a separate setting for notification vibrations. So changing this may require root if there's not a custom app wrote for this.
Two weeks ago, toggling the silent mode settings between Silent, sound only, vibrate only, and sound-vibe controlled the ringer and all the notifications. So, any app that generated a notification would follow this setting. You know, like every phone every made since their advent.
My phone just came back from samsung (screen repair) with MD4 everything. I also put MOAR on it. Now, that toggle no longer controls the notification vibration. The only way to set vibration for notification is go into the individual application settings. This is ridiculousness. I thought I could make a workaround with tasker, but "Vibrate on notify" is also no longer available.
Can anyone verify this is the way it is? Or is something wrong with mine?

I'm not sure if this will work as I'm on AOSP rom but try this.
Under Settings/Sound - select volumes, you should get a popup for volume settings. There should be an option for "Link Ringtone & Notification Volumes". Select that and notifications should follow the same rule as phone ring tone. Hope it works for you.
Bumping this. Does anyone have a solution to this complete epic failure of engineering by either google or samsung? It's absolutely absurd that if I want to cycle vibrate on and off, I have to go into 5 different apps, dig through menus of each app, and change each app's individual notification settings.
After you received the Device back from Samsung, did you happen to notice if the Toggle worked correctly ? I'm currently on MOAR, and everything works as it should. Did you do a Clean install of MOAR ? Meaning a Full Wipe System - Data - Dalvik Cache -Cache - Factory Reset ? Did you verify the MD5 Checksum of the Rom before Flashing ?

When I sent the phone away, it had MOAR 4 and whatever was prior to MD4.
When I got the phone back, it came with MD4. I clean flashed MOAR 4. Not more vibe on notify. I didn't check that before I flashed, but presumably that feature went away with MD4.
Clean flashing to MOAR 5 still lacks that feature.
So this leads me to believe it is an MD4 "feature".
Ok so I think I understand you a bit better now. You are not saying that the Toggle is broken, you are saying that when you use the Toggle certain apps do not respond accordingly. Have you tried : Menu - Settings - Sound - Ringtones and notifications. Make sure that Vibrate and ringing is checked.
No no. The problem is that THERE IS NO TOGGLE. The toggle for selecting notification vibrate no longer exists. It isn't there. Taken away. No option, no selection, no checkbox, no nothing. And tasker shows it as not available so I can't work around it either.
Look at these two screenshots. There is nothing to set notification vibrate, and there there is nothing to link notification settings up with ringer settings. All gone. The Vibrate when ringing checkbox controls only the phone call vibrate and has no effect on notifications.
The only way to control whether you get a vibrate for notification, is to go into each application and manually turn it's vibrate option on. That application will then vibrate at all times. If I set the phone for silent, that app's notifications will still vibrate. If I set the phone for sound only, that app still vibrates. If I have the app's vibe turned off, and I set the phone for vibrate, I will never receive any notification since there is no vibrate for notification.
Make sense now?
Did you try changing it in Vibration Intensity ?

Sure I could go into vibration intensity and lower it down to zero. But that is not a toggle. There is no way to adjust that without going through all the menus and changing the slider. It will not change itself when I put the phone into vibrate. It will not change itself when I put the phone into sound & vibe. It isn't solving anything. The problem is the removal of the toggle.
You can try THIS , or maybe the one HERE.

Those just do the same exact thing the phone already does. Toggle the RINGER. Nothing to do with notifications.
I've been asking around about this too. It's really annoying having to change the notification settings in each app every time. Someone suggested a Tasker profile to change the vibrate settings in specified apps but I haven't figured out how to do it.
Just installed Lollypop on my new M8. I can't find a way if turning off notifications on the lock screen but leaving them working on the notification bar.
The help says this.
"Lock screen notifications
Choose the types of notifications to show or hide on the lock screen. Go to Settings, and then tapSecurity.Under*Lock screen, tapNotification settings.Choose whether to show or hide notifications such as missed calls and text messages. "
But on mine, there is no "Notifications" under Lock Screen, just "Incoming Phone Calls". Has my install gone wrong? Do others have the correct menu item? Is there another way of turning off lock screen notifications?
Thanks.

Try this :
settings - security than reset your lockscreen. Reset it the way you want and it will ask you again to show notifications or not.
Worked for me for the lock pattern.
Thanks. That is one answer - I had answered to hide sensitive info but didn't like the opaque notifications. They'd be ok if they were transparent.
I've now found another way, not mentioned in the help and tips. Go to Sound & Notifications | When device is locked. However, that only gives on or off, not the sensitive info option.
I'd love to make them transparent again. Has anyone found a way of doing that?
I've also found you can turn them off app by app by pressing & holding the notification on the lock screen but then you never see another notification from that app until you turn it back on (Sound & Notifications | App Notifications).

Anyone?
Is there a way of making notifications on the lock screen (or the notification bar) transparent (or black)?
