My phone is always on vibrate. But I sometimes by mistake hit the volume down button and the phone goes into no vibrate mode without me noticing. It is starting to get quite annoying.
Is there any quick solution to get rid of it being able to go into no vibrate mode?
I asked few days ago a similar question:
hitting by mistake the up volume button take me out of mute mode.
So, we are both looking for a away to prevent volume buttons from changing mute/vibrate mode to another mode.
I don't think there is a quick solution for this. Perhaps a programmer will be able to write a mode for that, I don't know.

I am running tazz froyo, but this has been a problem for a while. When I receive a text message with sound, like one of those stupid forwards everyone gets it has no sound. I have searched the phone settings and cant find a way to disable or enable the sounds. does anyone else have this problem or know what might be causing it?
My second problem is how do you wake the phone up from sleep while on speaker phone without hanging up on the person. The only way that I have been able to do it is to press the end button which terminates the call.
thanks for the help
For the first one, I have no idea.
For the second one, I'm glad to share this as I found it out yesterday.
Press and hold the volume up button and then press the send button to wake the screen when you're on a call and the screen won't turn on.
To start off, i'm running gingerblur and i use the alarm on my phone almost every night. I also leave my phone on vibrate most of the time. The problem i am having is that i will go to bed with my phone in vibrate mode but when i take it off the charger in the morning (after the alarm goes off) it turns my ringer back on. Granted its usually at the lowest volume but still i would like for it to stay in vibrate mode. Is there a way to do this?
Also is there a way to go completely into silent mode by pressing the volume keys? It would be nice if i could just press volume down once in vibrate mode and it would change to silent mode.
Thanks in advance.
sigh, bump
Hi,
I have the annoying problem that my s2 turns off vibration mode when put to silence. If you manually go under settings->sound->silent mode and put that to 'vibrate' it works for that time being. But the next time, it all go back to no-vibration mode.
Looking at my friend phone(s2), he got the option of two different mode of silent when using the volume up/down. One with vibration and one without.
I honestly don't know how to fix this very annoying problem. I just want the vibration to be active at all times!
Any hints that can point me in the right direction?

just change your settings to mute ringtone and media volume for a diffrent profile that you dont use
I tried that, and it doens't work.
I've also reset to factory default, with no luck.
In fact, when I put my phone to silent and manually go to settings to put on vibration( I can see the vibration icon on top). It still does not vibrate on notification, ringing nor sms. But strangely from third party application it vibrates, like whatapp messenger.
vibration work when I have sound on.
So the problem is that when I put it on silent it automatically turns off the vibration mode.. and when I manually put silent mode to vibration, it still doesn't vibrate, only on 3rd party apps..
It sounds to me that this is some software issue, but can't really seem to find any solution to this very annoying problem.
Anyone?

Hello,
S3 is my first smartphone ever, so please be patient
Since I'm a student, I put my phone on mute during the classes (through the notification bar).
However, it happened to me twice now that accidental touch on volume up hard key took me out of mute. This is of course undesirable... Is there a way to disable this function of volume-up key?
I want to remain muted until I cancel it on notification bar.
Thanks!
bump... can anyone help?
Sad....it remains a big drawback of the android phones that we cant make different profiles for volume like Nokia phones......
I think you can only do this by finding a tone with no sound and setting it for all the alerts manally from sound setting before entering your class room
anyhow this is a good question and hope some devs can desable vol- button for enabling full vol. back
Thanks...
but modifying it manually at the beginning of each class, then again at the end, is not very comfortable.
Perhaps it can be fixed with a mod? something like that:
- clicking volume up if phone is not muted increases the volume, as usual.
- clicking volume up if phone is muted doesn't do anything.
