I have a very simple profile set up to put my phone in silent mode during certain days and times. The profile is being executed as expected. I can go into Sound menu on the phone and see that the phone was put into silent mode. However, the silent and vibrate icons are not displayed in the notification bar. Even more troublesome, is that the phone wont actually vibrate when I get a call or notification. If I manually deselect and select silent, I will see both icons and the phone functions as expected. Is there perhaps some bug in Tasker that is not handling this correctly?
My phone is the Samsung Galaxy S2, rooted running Unnamed rom.
BUMP....sorry to bump this but was wondering if anyone has experienced this issue?
More information: I downloaded Sound Manager which is an app that shows the status of the various volume & vibrate settings. After Tasker has executed the profile to put my phone into silent mode, I used Sound Manager to doublecheck my vibrate status, and both calls and notifications are set to not vibrate at all even though in my phone settings I have vibrate on silent. When I change the call and notification vibrate settings in Sound Manager to vibrate on silent as well, I see the appropriate icons . This tells me that Tasker is doing something wrong when setting my phone to silent.
Any ideas?
I am having a similar problem
I set the "silent mode" to "vibrate" (in tasker) but I get an icon of silent instead of vibrate.
Same problem here, tasker puts phone in silent mode bud doesn't enable vibration (manually setting silent mode in statussbar works fine) looks like tasker bug to me.
Galaxy s2
Rom: KI4 rooted
EDIT:
HA! Found it! Silent Mode in tasker doesn't have 2 modes (ON and OFF). Instead it has 3 (on, VIBRATE, off). Set it to VIBRATE and you ar back in bussiness
Checked it - works. If others confirm we can mark this one solved
I have a very similar issue. I have a profile that is triggered when I am near two cell towers at my work. The actions put the Phone Ringer to volume 0 and enable vibrate, and I see the vibrate icon in the notification tray, but I've tested calling myself from my office phone, and the phone still rings at normal volume.
I'm using an LG G3, rooted and running stock ROM, Android 5.
similar issue for meI have a profile that activates when my phone sees the wifi at work will set the phone to silent mode (3 – vibrate). It works fine when I first get in as it will vibrate, but then after some unknown amount of time it will set the ringer back to wherever it was (like it exits the profile) but the profile is still active in tasker. If I manually reexecute the profile it will stay in vibrate the rest of the day. Ideas?

Probably you have a case or somehow are pressing the volume all the way down.
Remember either lowering the volume or power button plus silent mode are the quick shortcuts to enable Vibration mode.
Also when a call is received and the phone is upside down can make the ringing on mute.

In my case Timeriffic was automatically reinstalled from Google Play. the default setting was to set the phone to vibrate at 8PM Mon - Thu. All sorted now.

i had the same problem, you can activate or deactivate this option under settings/sound/automatic feedback
Hmm,
Can't seem to find that seting on my phone, so will have to hope that it was because of Timeriffic.

I know this is an old thread, but all of a sudden my phone seems to randomly switch sound on throughout the day, after i put it on vibrate. I wonder if there's a way to enable vibrate only via the notification bar, rather than the volume keys.
In my opinion the volume keys should only control the current volume, rather than the sound "profile" (mute, sound, vibrate).
Anyway i will be doing some looking into why this seems to happen.
1) you have a case which is pressing the Volume button down
2) Try turning off AUTO HAPTIC FEEDBACK
3) try resetting your phone if all else fails

i have same weird vibrating problems also. I normally set my phone to sound mode no vibrate. whenever someone text me it automatically change the mode to sound+vibrate I've been trying anything but to no avail this still persists.
and BTW I'm using GO SMS.
Even i have been facing this problem with various ROMs..what could be the issue? any help?
S3 auto turns to Vibrate mode
Hi,
For last 2 weeks, i am facing a same problem. randomly few times in a day, message default ring tone rang without any message and after a while (may be after few seconds) it turns to Vibrate.
the only thing new happened to my phone is, its board died all of a sudden (bgr[dot]com/2012/12/21/samsung-galaxy-s-iii-hardware-failure-262887/) and the Samsung service center has replaced it with new board. since then i am facing this problem.
I was using the Nova launcher before the repair, and now after the repair using the same Nova launcher.
Any idea? anyone else facing the same issue? btw, i have turned off the haptic feedback as well, restart the phone also, but issue still persists.
any feedback would be highly appreciated, thanks.

Guys, I am facing similar problem and nothing else is working. I think we should compare notes to find out what is the cause of this problem. Tell me what ROM are you running? Custom or Stock. If custom then which one? What 3rd Party apps are you running that can schedule tasks e.g Tasker, Scheduler etc. Have you turned off Haptic feedback and motion under your phone settings?
My Answers:
Custom ROM Yes
Ripper ROM (Love it and big fan)
Haptic Feedback Off
Motion Feature Disabled
3rd Party Apps Yes
Tasker Yes
Scheduler No
Call recording Yes
I have sam problem with NOTE 2.
Every last incoming call set my "default" sound profil .Depend what I have set ( sound, vibration, mute....) at the incoming call moment.
I found out that AVG antivirus is a problem???? I delete AVG and for now ( two days ) all is OK.
Maybe its the auto mute
There is a feature under motion that puts the phone in vibrate/silent when you "turn it down", maybe that is what is causing you problems? My phone was muting itself with no logical reason and deactivating it did the trick, hope it works for you
Does anyone know any hack to disable notification vibration throughout the system ??
or disable vibration completely ?
In the sound settings there are only three options
sound - Notification vibrates , can controls ringtone vibration
vibrate - Notification vibrates , No sound
silent - No vibration or sound
The problem is it keeps vibrating every time it receives notification.
I can't find setting to disable vibration while notification .
Whenever i get notifications it vibrates the phones. I have checked all the settings but could not disable it .
I have also used this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.antutu.phoneprofilefree&hl=en
I've unchecked vibrate on ringtone but can't disable vibrating on notifications.
Its drains lot cellphone battery.
Is there a away to completely disable vibration in android ??
(I also know the fact that notification vibration is app dependent.
But thing is some apps don't have any vibration/feedback settings. )
please help. anyone. sorry for noob question.
Hello!
Please, is there anyone who knows how to easily and quickly disable Honor 7's notification vibrations and keep only the notification sounds on? I know I can go to Settings-Sound and turn it off completely etc., but I mean a way hot to turn it off quickly, for example by a widget or another quick setting and of course to be able to turn it on quickly again later. My old Android HTC Desire Z was able to turn it off only by repeated tapping on the speaker icon in the quick settings menu which I pulled down on the screen. It ciclically set up sound with vibration, only sound, only vibrations or complete mute. Honor 7 seems to bind vibrations with sound and that is all. I also tried some widgets which pretended turning it off but vibrations were still going on. It seems to me that the more I use this phone the more it sucks in many tiny details which were routine even on my older Android.
Thanks for help!
I use a nightly DND schedule. When the schedule turns DND off my phone beeps. Is there anyway to turn that beep off?
I have used the system DND and several apps to schedule DND and still have the beep.
The problem being the beep wakes me up and I don't want to wake up at that time unless someone calls or texts me.
Thanks for any help.
Turn system sounds volume all the way down?
Thanks! Yes system volume is all the way down when on DND but I really think it happens when volumes are automatically turned back on. I probably need to Disable "Beep" sound on volume adjustment. Any ideas?

What happens if you turn system sounds all the way down BEFORE turning on DND? I normally keep system sounds off, and I haven't noticed my phone beeping when DND goes off. It's possible I just haven't noticed it, but I think I would have heard it at least sometimes. Yesterday I was awake with phone in hand when DND ended, and I didn't notice a beep.
