in gosms settings i have vibrate style set to "only when phone is set up to vibrate". so when i set my m8 to vibrate, there is no vibration when i receive an SMS. i basically have to keep vibrate on all the time option in gosms, as it will not disable when i turn off vibrate from the notification panel.
any ideas?

I had issues like this with Hangouts. Basically, set all vibration alerts inside of GoSMS to "Default" and set the vibration settings up how you'd like them under the phone settings and see if that fixes the problem.

I've been running the latest CM7 nightlies for a while now and starting about a week ago, the vibrate function stopped working when I received text messages. I use Chomp SMS and I've changed the settings in there, in the standard messaging app, and in the general sounds category in settings. The phone still vibrates for everything else - games, alarms, phone calls, etc.
Any ideas? I'd rather not have to do a full reset.

Did you change the notification settings in the stock messaging app?
Messaging > menu > settings > notification settings > vibrate > "vibrate always"
Yes I did that. Any other ideas?

Shot in the dark, are you using the notifications drop-down power widgets? I had an issue a while back that when I used those to adjust the volume/vib/silent toggle, it would turn off vibrate in the global settings when moving back and forth between "vibrate" and "all sounds on".
Just make sure that your global settings are correct and then dont change anything then test the notification with an incoming SMS.
Other than that I'm out of ideas.
I tried changing the global settings again and in the process realized that it vibrates now when the phone is set to "silent" mode, but when I turn on the volume again the vibrate goes away. I set every single notification setting I could find to vibrate always so this is super confusing.

Try setting up a notification power widget. And under 'widget buttons' scroll all the way down to 'sound modes' and select one of the options where the first one is "sound+vibrate". Toggle to this mode from the notification pull-down and see if that toggles it. (I personally use 'Sound+Vib/Vib/Silent').
I found that the stock settings and CMsettings often mess eachother up.
I ended up flashing back to a backup from 2 weeks ago - it was worth the time because the vibrate settings are completely back to normal. Thanks for the help, though, I'll keep it in mind for future reference in case this happens again.
I rooted my slide 2 days ago and put CyanogenMod7.1 on it and it's running great except now my phone doesn't vibrate when I get calls or notifications. My girlfriend has a G2 (running the Gingerbread update, not rooted) - and hers hasn't vibrated since she's gotten the phone. Is there a reason why its doing this or how to fix it?
You didn't mention if you did or not, so I have to ask - are the settings set to have it vibrate on notifications?
Check your Sound settings - there is a setting about vibrating there. You can have it always vibrate, never vibrate, only in silent mode, or only when not in silent mode.
Also, there are notification settings for different apps. For example, in the Messaging App's Settings you can tell it to vibrate or not. Also, you can have different notification settings for the Gmail app.
Missed a meeting because my s3 was in my pocket and did not vibrate and i didnt hear the tone. Went to calendar -> settings and there is no "vibrate" checkbox in the "Notifications settings" section (like there was on my old galaxy s). I also don't have this checkbox in my text messages settings, but my text do vibrate albeit not with the default vibrate "tone" i selected. My phone is pure stock att no root, no rom only 3 days old. Anybody know how to have calendar reminders / alerts / notifications vibrate?

If you go in settings, then sounds, is the check box next to Sound and Vibration checked?

Yes. It does vibrate for calls and texts, just not for calendar. Also, it vibrates for calendar reminders when i set "silent mode" to vibrate, i just want calendar reminders to vibrate even when silent mode is off (meaning i want both a tone and vibrate). I've seen other posts for s3's that reference a "vibrate" checkbox on the message setting, but i do not see this text box so I'm assuming other s3 owners have a vibrate checkbox on the calendar setting that i do not have also - can anybody corroborate this for me?
This is fixed in the OTA update currently rolling out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31801294#post31801294
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.
Has anyone else noticed that when in vibrate mode ALL notifications vibrate regardless of their app settings? It's rather annoying and previous phones weren't like this. My S7e still followed per app vibrate settings (eg mail app). On the s8+ i get a vibrate for every single email i receive regardless of the fact no vibration option is selected in the app.
Seems to be a bit of a bug....
