Hey guys. I'm using CRe.Active Rom CM 7.1 based. When I receive a message, my phone wont vibrate and most importantly the screen wont light up. However my notification rings. Any ideas? I'm pretty sure it has something to so with the cm settings.

Wierd bug here. My phone is set to always vibrate and it does so for incoming calls however for sms I get the sound but no vibration. I've noticed there is no vibrate option in the messaging settings either :| Anyone got any ideas on fixing this?

Are you using the stock messaging app? What rom and phone are you using?

Yes, stock messaging app on SGS2 (as the forum states). I'm on stock KE2 and rooted via chainfire's rooting method then reflashed stock kernel.
Have you turned on always vibrate from within the messaging app? Go to all threads in the app, press menu, then settings, scroll down to notification settings, then press the option that says "Vibration" and make sure the option for always vibrate is selected.

I would but the setting isn't even there which is what surprised me most!
EDIT: I found an app to let me enable that vibration and it works now but it should be there as an option by default!!! WTF SAMSUNG!

Hey guys, same problem here.
darkalchemist, which app allows to enable vibration? thanks in advance.
upd: found "vibrate tools" app
Its called MineVibrationSetting and you just need to download it from the market and tick the box inside to enable.

Hey guys, for the past 5 or 6 cm builds I have flashed I never get the notification that I have received text messages. Notifications are on through the messaging app, I've even turned sync on. The only way I recieve my messages is if I click on the messaging app which is a pain, because somedays I forget to click it and I see messages from early in the morning. Is anyone else having this problem or does one know of a solution? Thanks

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.

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!
I hate how my screen turns on when I receive an sms message. I only need the notification icon in the taskbar and the led blink and if I disable the notifications from the settings the screen does not open but I loose the other notifications as well. Any ways to fix this?

interested in that too
Don't know if it's possible with the stock app, however if you're willing to use a 3rd party app, Go SMS does have an option to keep the screen off and quite possibly other apps do too.

switch to HANDCENT SMS, it is the best sms app, i am using it for a year now. Go to setting and disable pop-up. Now when you receive a message, it will vibrate, led will blink, but screen will not turn on. You will ses the message in the notification bar.

That's what I'm using right now but I want to minimize the use of third party apps as much as possible . Plus with handcent sms when I send a picture or video it doesn't work. I have to use the regular messaging app in order for my mms to leave successfully .

strange, people use handcent just for mms and you are having issues ,, might be problem with settings

Still no solution for this one. I don't want to use handcent or go sms for two reasons. First I like the simplicity if the stock samsung app and second I use the direct call feature that only works with stock app. There must be a way to hack the default messaging app to stock opening the screen when receiving a message.

BUMP. This feature is sooooo annoying!!!!
It irritates me also. I've used Handcent on every device in the past, but I don't want to for some reason on this one. I actually rather like the stock messaging app.
I suppose I'll go back to Handcent. The screen on is annoying, plus it creates a temporary wakelock that drains the battery even more.

I dont think this has been asked as a thread but correct me if im wrong.
I know you can set custom vibrations for calls and groups etc but when i do that the notification vibrate is the normal constant vibrate. Any way to change this via an app or anything??
You can use lightflow app. You can set custom vibration, led notification, ring tone. etc for each notification.

and does that have an impact on the battery life?
I don't see much of a difference in battery life
