I have my regular text tone as normal but after the tone sounds a voice says message from the person that sent it. I don't know what happened, I've looked in the sound settings and I can't find a way to disable it. Any help here, it started doing it out of the blue and I hate it.

You most likely had your phone in driving mode and didn't realize it. If it happens again or you want to reproduce, Hit the home button twice to bring up voice controls, hit cancel, and then check to see if driving mode is on/off.

Any app that will let you adjust how long the vibrate on an in coming call will last? The default just ain't cutting it.

I turned off mine. When I get a call.
And I've never heard of one app that could do that. But who knows.

What I mean is like long short long vibrate. Something that will pulse til it got my attention.

I used to use an app called Missed Call on my droid to make custom settings for my contacts before handcent added that feature. I only text really so call settings don't matter to me but if I remember correctly, it has settings for everything from email to call to texts.
Just looked in the market and it seems to have been abandoned. You could still give it a try.
Lately, several times, but not every time, when my phone rings the screen stays black while the bottom buttons light. I have to press the power button once to turn off the light completely and again where the screen lights normally and then I can answer the call. Any ideas of solutions to this weird problem?

Sorry, I have no solution nor have I heard of this. But guessing, did you install something like Google Voice, skype, or some other phone app?
Actually, no. It must be an app, tho

Currently, I keep my phone on vibrate most of the time. However, some people send me way too many texts which can be annoying. Is there a way to silence the vibration for certain contacts? I don't want to block their texts, I just don't want my phone to vibrate for those select contacts.
Bump... bump...
idk about for individuals but if you get chompsms (LOVE IT.) and turn off your other messenger, in chompsms settings you can go to notifications and vibrate pattern, hit custom and u type in how many seconds on/off it vibrates, for a quiet vibrate i put about
.015,.015,.015,.015,.015,.015,.015,.015 for a very long time, personally at the end i put ".075,.075,.075,.075 for two louder but still quiet and short vibrates at the end

Thanks for the ChompSMS recommendation it doesn't seem to provide a way to silence individual contact notifications. Any other suggestions?
search sms blocker in the market place theres an award winning one with a lot of features.

Thank you for your suggestions as they led me to an app called Vibe which may do the trick!
Can anyone tell me how to cut off the voice notification that happens everytime I get a text? I've looked in settings but haven't seen anything that would change it.

Its part of the "voice talk" app. You must have it set to drive mode so it announces everything that happens on your phone. You can turn it off through the widget, or through the app itself.

Yup. That fixed it. Thanks!
Anyone know how to remove the audio time announcement when I turn my screen back on with the power button?
Its in settings. Voice input and output. Then in voice output. Then text to speech settings. Then driving mode. Then uncheck unlock screen.
