Hey I have a big problem I'm using cynogen mod 6 on my hero by I've noticed that when I slide into silent mode at the lock screen its suppose to vibrate, although when it's in silent mode it actually doesn't.. I want my hero to vibrate in. Silent mode like its suppose to for when school comes along i. Can have it working... can someone please get this to work I would really appreciate it highly. I will be on every hour to check responces and I already tried going into vibration settings and selecting always and only on silent. I even tried downloading sound manager. Please help me:.(?
Regards,
Antonio
Been using this very nice phone for a couple of weeks now and loving it. Got checkrom v4 on it and it is running nice, with one issue.
I use silent mode when I am at work, so as not to annoy my office mates, with it coming on automatically using tasker. When I leave it is turned off, and audible selections is activated in the settings even though it was of before entering silent mode. Does this happen normally our have I stuffed something up in tasker? If it happens normally is there a way of preventing this?

I don't use tasker but not sure about that but when I put the phone on silent the touch tones remain silent.
You may also want to go into settings / sounds and lower the system volume which also lowers that. I find that the stock touch volume is too high.

Hmm maybe I phrased it wrong. I have the audible selections unchecked before I put silent mode on, then silent mode comes on, and they stay unchecked, but when silent mode turns off they become checked again. Its not a big deal to uncheck it but it just annoys me (yea I know first world problem!)
Might see if I can turn down the stock volume to minimal for this and see if it makes a difference, probably the simple solution to the issue (can live without touchtones on the dial pad).
Hi,
Recently my phone stock alarm clock started behaving strangely,
Sometimes the sound does not go off when having the phone on silent or vibrate at night when sleeping.
Quick fix is restarting the phone and then it works for a while and stops working again. Another fix is to switch between silent/vibrate to normal few times to have the sound go off.
Now experienced that several times, afraid that I will miss an important appointment one day or go to work late
Anybody knows this issue?
I've spent about two hours trying to figure out a way to put my phone in a state that silences the alarm sound and vibration when silencing the rest of the phone. I have tried:
- The free Smart Profiles app
- Tasker
- The phone's "Mute" setting (accessed by long-press of power button)
In all cases the alarm will still sound when it goes off. Does anyone know of a way to COMPLETELY silence the phone, including alarms, aside from turning all the individual alarms off?
Wouldnt that be defeating the purpose of having alarms? The only other option is to turn the phone off. But I assume you just want to use it on silent.
Try android assistant.

I guess it depends on how one uses alarms. I do use an alarm to wake me up, but I don't put my phone into silent or vibrate mode at night. I also use alarms as reminders, which is apparently the problem here. I have daily alarms to let me know when it's noon, for lunch, and 8pm, for my son's bedtime. Last night I was at a movie during the 8pm alarm. I expected that silent mode would silence the alarm but obviously it didn't. Silent mode on my old HTC incredible would silence the alarms, so that's what I'm used to.
Maybe I need to find another way to handle my daily reminder alarms.
Can't you just turn off the alarm and then back on when you need it?

I'm looking for a one-touch solution to completely silence the phone. On my HTC Incredible I could put it into silent mode with one touch and know that the alarms were also silent. It seems like the stock alarms on the S4 are such that they can't be silenced any way other than individually going in and turning them off. At this point I'm exploring 3rd party alarm/reminder apps to handle the daily alarms that I want to be able to silence, but if anyone knows a way to silence the stock alarms with a one-touch solution please let me know.

So you powered down your phone at the movies and it still beeped?
I'm a little concerned about this, too.
I ALWAYS turn my phone off at the movies. ALWAYS. How does it turn back on for the alarm?
I am using Widgetsoid for most of my switching needs. There is not a single button to make the alarms shut up, but there is a button that allows you to open a window with a slider for every sound on the phone, including alarms.
Phase 1. Install Widgetsoid, convert to /system app if rooted; it will enable some of the functions like GPS one-touch toggle
Phase 3. Profit
What you need is " audio manager pro". It's $2.99 but exactly what you need/want. You set profiles and there is a toggle widget to change between all of them.
Hope that helps, it sounds like EXACTLY what you asked for.

Please read what I wrote. I never said I powered down my phone. I set it to silent. Powering down your phone will indeed silence the alarms, so there's nothing for you to worry about.
I don't think there's an app that can provide what I'm looking for. I already use Smart Profiles to change my phone settings with one click. All of my testing shows that the version of Touchwiz on my Galaxy S4 does not have a setting that will silence the alarms. The decision by Samsung seems to be that the built-in alarms are for things you want to hear, even if you've set your phone to Silent or Vibrate mode.
Test this for yourself. Turn ALL of your volume levels to zero and then set an alarm using the built-in Clock app. I've done this multiple times and the alarm sounds every time.
I have solved my problem by switching to using Alarm Clock Plus. It's free, and let's you select whether you want each individual alarm to sound when the phone is in silent mode or not.
Maybe there's a way to silence the built-in alarms if you're rooted, but that's well beyond my pay-grade.

Those are not alarms. Alarms means make enough most to wake me up. Those are reminder notifications for calendar events. It sounds like you are expecting the alarm clock to act like calendar.

I registered only to say that I also use/used the alarms as reminders for things like medications, school being let out, etc. I recently switched from an HTC Thunderbolt to an S4 and figured out the new alarm problem. I don't want my calendar being cluttered with these daily items. I was at back to school night and had my phone on silent when a "reminder" went off. I felt horrible!
I have a Razr M on CM10.1 - 4.2.2, and Facebook Mesesnger vibrates even during silent mode when I get a message.
I would think Silent Mode overwrites any app priorities, but I guess not.
I have a tasker profile to set my phone to silent mode between 10pm and 9am only if the phone is plugged in, so my phone is on silent all night, but if I get a random facebook message, I wake up to the vibration.
Any way to fix this? Not sure if it's the app or something else.
Make sure you disable vibration in Messenger settings.

Yea I would do that, if I didn't want vibrations during the day, which I do.
The point of Silent Mode on a phone is to make sure it stays silent.

That means the Messenger app overrides the phone's profile (it doesn't honor silent mode).
