SO when I have the phone on vibrate, the messaging app still rings when i get a message. I can deselect notifications on the top bar, but then it wont vibrate either.
I would like for the whole phone to be on vibrate when i select it.
Can someone help?
Thanks
And now, even with sounds on, sometimes there is no SMS ring and it vibrates for about 20 seconds. Then the next sms will work correctly.
Any ideas?

Now that I've upgraded to 2.1, I've noticed something weird. When the phone is on vibrate and I receive a text message it doesn't vibrate anymore, but when getting a call it vibrates. HUH?
I was gonna post this in the 2.1 after effect but I figured it would get lost in that huge thread.
Thanks.
There is a setting in the Messenger app called Notification Vibration, maybe that has to be turned on in order for it to vibrate for text messages even if the phone is set to vibrate?
Thank you JDDawn, that was it.
Where is this setting
Go to messaging press the menu key and go to settings go to notification settings then scroll down to vibrate and click always

I have litening Rom 5 installed & running Go Launcher. I notiiced that when I was receiving text messages or when it was on silent I did not get the vibration alert. I then changed the settings so that the its set to vibration always and the icon appears on the top. However when I go into the pull down screen the sound icon is gone?
All I want is to be able to put the phone in silent and it will vibrate when I receive a text message or a phone call. The same goes when its not in silent. Also how can I tell if phone is in silent mode as its not given me the sound icon on the pull down menu?
Is it something simple I am missing more than likely
Confused
If the option in Dropdown menu is missing then just hold Power button, you will see the first option as Silent mode/Sound is Off/On.
And I didn't get you clearly on the SMS vibration part, just make sure that 'Vibrate always' is enabled under Settings- Sound- Vibration.

So I have never used the vibrate volume level until today. The phone does vibrate when hovering over the vibrate option, however when text messages come through it does not vibrate at all. I have the stock firmware and I did a battery pull and still no luck. Has this happened to anyone else? Is there a fix for this?
Thanks
Tried going into the settings in the message app? Sometimes you have to enable it.

You will need to set it in settings. Go to the messaging app that you use, whether it is stock, handcent, GO SMS, etc, then there should be an option within the settings.
For stock messaging app, you would want to enter settings, and under the notifications menu, there should be options where you can toggle vibration.
So I have been having this problem since I got my phone. I can set my phone to vibrate in the setting yet it refuses to vibrate when silent or when receiving a text message. The examples work in the settings but fails to actually happen in a real life situations. I tried installing Sms Pro to fix this yet it still doesn't work.
With a text message or something else like Google Talk? Mine will vibrate with a new text message using the stock app.
Go to the main conversation page in messages -> menu -> settings -> notification settings -> change the vibrate settings to your liking. For some reason the vibrate settings for messages is separate from the global settings for notifications in the main settings of the phone.

Thank you for the help but i have set it in the notification setting in sms pro and it has done nothing. Also there is no option for vibrate in the stick messaging app's settings. I have juice defender installed i thought maybe that could be contributing to it though when disable it still wont vibrate. I appreciate the help but i'm kinda at my wits end with this.
Just checked and you are right, there is no vibrate setting in the stock messaging app. However, if you select the option "display notifications in status bar" it uses the vibrate setting from the main phone settings - all status bar notifications do.
I just sent myself a text message and it definitely vibrates.
lol I am trying to figure out how to disable message virbation...
Setting>sound>vibration> Always/Never/Only in silent mode/ only when NOT in silent mode ... mines set on always and it always vibrates lol

Exactly. When "display notifications in status bar" is set in the messaging app, the main phone settings will enable - or disable - vibration. For better or for worse this means you can't turn it on or off for texts w/o also turning it on or off for all other status bar notifications...
Handcent is working for me, with customizable vibration.

I have just installed Chomp SMS on my samsung s2 running andyx v12 rom, its my first time using a different sms app and i do really like chomp a lot and would like to keep it, on my phone i have 2 issues though.
1. in the notifications settings i have notifications ticked and i have vibrate set to always vibrate. The problem i am having is when i get a text, i get the status bar notification but my phone doesnt vibrate at all which i have always relied on a lot when at work etc..
2. also in the notification settings there an option for screen comes on which i have ticked, it says that if the phone is off, it will come alive breifly when i get a text, but my phone isnt doing that either.
When i used the stock sms all these things worked, i have turned notifications off on my stock sms as i had read this was best so you dont get 2 notifications.
in my system settings vibrate is also set to on for notifications etc..
does anyone know what could be the issue, or are my above questions actually just the way chomp works?
thanks
