Hi!
My Rhodium with WM6.5/Dutch behaves strangely... Multiple times a day I get a missed call notification, but the phone never rang (while other calls do get through and it isn't set to silent mode). It also occurs that the phone only rings once and the callers thinks I ignored the call by pushing the hanup key, but I didn't even touch the phone in time to do that.
Anyone else seen this behaviour?
Is there anyway to do this?
currently, on the SMS setup there is an option to Vibrate also...
But I only want the SMS to vibrate when my phone is on vibrate (which currently it does not do).
If I put my phone on vibrate and have the SMS vibrate off, It doesn't vibrate...
Only when I turn SMS vibrate on does it vibrate in silent mode...
I don't want it to vibrate on SMS when my phone volume is on...
Any thoughts?
My Lumia 900 black vibrartion works like this..
During Incoming Call:
When in Vibra+Ring Mode:
Vibrates only for first ring and then stops. Only Ringing occurs afterwards.
When in Vibrate Mode:
Vibrates normally like any other phone.
Is my device working properly in Vibra+Ring mode. I hope it should Ring and Vibra till the incoming call stops. Correct me if I am wrong.. Is my device defective?
Thanks.
Can someone please answer this question by taking some time by testing your device and compare it with mine?
Thanks..
Are you saying your phone vibrates when in Ring mode?
I'm pretty sure my Vibra+Ring mode is the same as yours; it will vibrate on the first ring but then only ring from then on.

Mine works the same way... which now explains why i miss a bunch of calls when Im walking in the street in NYC and dont feel my phone vibrate in my pocket.
Doh!
This is kind of weird implementation. Hope this gets updated to vibe/ring at the same time throughout the entire incoming call.

Ok, yeah that makes sense. And yes, my phone works the same way.
I just tested my phone as well and it only does the initial vib then stops as the phone continues to ring. I don't like that. I like for my phone to vibrate and ring at the same for the duration of the call. Interesting find. I'll probably end up missing calls as well because of this.

Same here, vibrates on the first ring only. I didn't even notice that until I saw this post. This could possibly be an issue for me in the future but right now it's not really a big deal as I didn't even realize it. The only time I really do need vibrate is when my phone is on silent.
Yeah..this is an important issue as we might miss calls during traveling. Single vibe would not suffice.
Traditionally all NOKIA devices vibrates and rings at the same time. This device is working weird which can be fixed by a software update.
We should inform Nokia about this issue in their conversations by pointing to this thread.
I just tested mine. It will vibrate first and then ring, but once the ringtone has cycled, it will vibrate again and then ring, and so on.
Choose a short ringtone and set vibration to on. Then try making a call to the device. Allow the ringtone to cycle at least twice. I know this isn't the equivalent to vibe with ring, but at least I do get more than one vibration with my ringer.
Here's a observation...
I'm noticing that this phone actually NEVER vibrates and plays a sound at the same time. Such as new SMS or new email... the phone will vibrate first and then ding, same as an incoming call (vibe then ring).
So I'm wondering if there is possibly some sort of limitation (hardware or software) that doesn't allow the Lumia 900 to vibe & play sound simultaneously.
Thoughts?
I believe that WP7 is configured to vibrate at the beginning of every cycle of the ringtone.
Because of this, if you have a long ringtone such as a song, it will only have the chance to vibrate once before your voicemail kicks in.
To test this theory i changed my ringtone to "Topic" which was included with the phone.
As expected, it vibrates, runs the two rings that make up the ringtone file, then vibrates again as it repeats. This means that shorter ringtones will result in more frequent vibrations.
Can someone else test this to confirm?

You are right...works the same way..
Vibration in any lumia
I been having issues with the vibration as well. I have a Lumia 710 and have tried on a 800. The short ringing tone works fine to keep it vibrating.
But I´ve heard you can actually have the phone ringiing and vibrating at the same time.
there is a post in here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11948890#post11948890
but it only workls with HTC. i have been looking for a program or a registry editor that can change the vibration function on a LUMIA.
It seams that I don't know how to set up my HOX to vibrate for SMS only when I put it in vibration mode.
When vibrate is on in SMS options it vibrates even if the sound is on.
There is also vibration for calls and SMS in the general sound settings but it also seems that the phone vibrates only for calls.
I just need it to vibrate when I put it in vibration mod.
Everytime I receive or make a phone call my ringer goes from vibrate to ring automatically. This only started happening after updating to Pie. Any suggestions?
