I was wondering if anyone had the same problem or knows of a solution. Is there a way to control, through settings or an app you can download, the vibration intensity for notifications and calls. I've noticed at work that if I have my phone on my desk or pocket that the vibration is clearly audible and noticeable by people around me.
I've tried Vibe but it seems to only be for calls and focuses on vibration pattern.
I'm running HOX+ stock and unrooted.

As long as I've owned my phone (~ 1 month), my notification vibrate has been great. If it was on a hard table, it was loud enough to scare the crap out of me, but more importantly, I could easily feel it in my pocket. Recently, apparently after turning off the notification vibrate for a little while (so that I could leave it on a table without jumping), the vibration intensity is extremely weak. I makes a small buzz on a table, and I can't even begin to feel it in my pocket unless the screen is facing out (which sounds like a great way to get a cracked screen).
Changing the vibration intensity under the settings only changes the haptic feedback intensity, not the notification intensity. I can't find a setting for that anywhere - has anyone else had this problem? Anyone know the solution?
apparently (from what i've gathered) the haptic feedback intensity controls the vibration intensity for the ENTIRE phone. So make sure your intensity is all the way up before you turn off haptic feedback otherwise your vibration will be extremely weak.
I saw that looking through old threads. I usually have haptic feedback on and the intensity set at about halfway, but maxing it has no effect on notifications.
One other note - it seems that my incoming call vibration is strong. Unfortunately, I'm not entirely sure if it had dropped and is now back to where it was, or if it stayed at the same level while my notification level dropped.
Opposite Effect
Anyone confirm this or is there some other way to adjust the global vibration? Mine is way too strong and rattles the volume buttons on my phone. My girlfriend and her two daughters also have Vibrants and I've compared mine with all of theirs. Mine is extremely intense. My girlfriend joked about borrowing it for a while.
Anyone know of anything I can do? A service menu or something? I've been searching and this thread is the best I could find.
Hi
I'm using SG2 on KF3 india stock firmware
I noticed a weird bug,
When vibration is set to always on mode, and Motion controls (Turn over) are set to On, when the phone is place on flat surface like sofa,bed,pillow or anyother flat surface,there is no sound or vibration for incoming call and messages.
if at all that comes,vibration or sound is coming only for 1-2 sec,then phone goes to silent
This happeing with Vibration only in silent mode also, once in a while its completely vibrating ,other wise phone vibrating for two times then going to silent mode
When Turn Over setting in Motion is disabled,then its completely fine,
is this normal with Turn Over feature, If yes, then i'm done with motion controls
Its so annoying for me,as i need vibration always,coz when phone is trouser pocket,ringtone is not audible,so i need vibration to know for sms and incoming calls, in this case,when phone is on sofa or bed,i'm completely blindfolded about my calls and sms as there is no ringtone
anyway to get this over?
Any one else faced this issue?
No, I do not have this problem.
I have also both turned on - vibration and motion controls.
Do you have tested the turn over in settings - motion controls - turn over?
And do you already tried to calibrate sensors?
In settings - display - horizontal calibration and gyro-sensor calibration.
If this does not help, you really should set priority and use silent mode.
Same here
I've the same issue..
Im on xxkh3 right now. I've tried calibrating and also Ive tested several different versions of firmware. Nothing changed.
It's quite annoying, knowing that only some of us have this, makes it worse. Maybe it is a hadrware defect??
Edit : BTW, there is already a thread for this :

I am currently an iPhone 4s user and really like the way that the switch toggles between no sound (vibrate) and sound. I leave me phone in vibrate mode for most of the day and in the evening I tend to switch it to sound so I can hear the alerts from around my house when I don't have the phone with me. I am thinking about switching to an android device (S4 or HTC One) and have a few friends that haven't been able to duplicate the behavior of the iPhone. They get sound with vibration or some other weird combinations that wont work for me. Is this a limitation of the OS or is it device specific? I basically want everything to vibrate (Ringer, SMS, Email) with the option of changing everything to sound, no combinations of the two. I also need to distinguish between types of messages by using different vibration patterns.
Thanks.

I've seen several people recommend something like tasker or quick settings to setup a home screen item that would switch all apps to vibrate and one that would switch all apps to sound. Is this something that anyone has done? I really want to toggle between all sound and all vibrations with no combination of the two.
Thanks...
Hey guys,
I am running ICS. Like others, I am kind of frustrated that you cannot set separate volumes for incoming calls and notifications/texts.
It wasn't a huge deal, I could use Setting Profiles lite to put my phone on vibrate when I plug it into a charger, I could use a call blocker to prevent an incoming call from preventing my alarm from going off (it happens if I get a call at the same time the alarm is set to go off). But I ended up purchasing and installing ICS+ Enhanced Ringer Control, which separated volumes but didn't allow for enough customization over controls to be really convenient. It still would have generally worked well enough for me, especially since my speaker is broken and my device is automatically silent without a bluetooth speaker (so I wouldn't have to adjust ringer volume on the go), but...
Ever since installing (and subsequently uninstalling) Enhanced Ringer Control, custom vibration patterns no longer work for me - I mean they work but not for notifications/alerts. That means incoming calls and texts and e-mails are back to the same, generic, easy enough to miss patterns. I tried re-installing Smart Vibrator thinking permissions needed to be reset, but that did not work. I am assuming that re-installing Aqua Mail (which gives the option of a custom pattern for incoming e-mail) would also not work.
I e-mailed the developer of Enhanced Ringer Control, but I figured I might have better luck finding a fix here. Thanks in advance. I prefer custom vibration to "Enhanced Volume Control."
Im having some problems with the vibration of incomming calls. Its to strong for vibration. And you can hear it. I looked in the settings if there is an intensity slider. But there is none. There is an intensity slider for the keyboard. So I figured out that it is possible to set the intensity. Not in the original settings I guess. So I add an app called vybe where you van choose your vibration length. But if the phone is in vibraton mode it plays the first vibration from the phone, and then it will play the vybe one. Sollution was to set viber on silent mode. That way I dont get the annoying very hard vibration from the phone. But I lost the Silent mode. Is there any way to adjust the vibration in an other way. Thanks in advance.
