Vibration question - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to make the N1 vibrate for everything; ringer, SMS, email ...everything? I have vibrate set to always in the sound options.
Thanks for any info. Tried to search but from the xda app you don't get easy results that way.

Yes... go into the application and under notification select vibrate.

So each app acts independently..
Thank you!

Thank you for this info! I was searching for it too. My phone didn't vibrate for text messages since the update to Froyo..
Thanks!

Phone does not vibrate on incoming text messages (solved)

I have tried everything and still cant get it to vibrate on incoming text messages. (It does vibrate on incoming call)
settings/sound & display/Phone vibrate (checked)
messaging/settings/Vibrate (checked)
Any idea? Thanks
Try using Handcent SMS. If that doesn't work, wipe.
smspop up works as well.
have u tried: menu/settings/all settings/sounds nd notifications/notifications/scroll to new message nd check vibrate.

Tried with this one too and didn't work either
I did a factory data reset and didn't work either.
Then I did a Clear Storage (aka Hard Reset) via fastboot (hold down volume + power) and it WORKED. It is all good now. Thank you all for your replies.

I don't see these settings on my Nexus One, I think you are talking about G1/My Touch settings.. but thanks
Alternately
I had this problem too, nothing worked. Toggled native messenger app vibrate on/off, tried Handcent long/short/custom, etc. Nothing worked, phone vibrated for calls, but not messages. Read on howardforums to try the app "Sound Manager," use "vibrate settings" toggled "vibrate whenever possible," and it worked. Handcent & native messaging vibrate upon receive message and can set custom length vibrate alerts in Hancent. App is in the market for free, good luck.
I had the same problem. Downloaded Sound Manager and found that "notifications" were set to "never vibrate".
I'm not sure how this got set, but all is well now. Cheers, ArmyAndy!
@ shadywasabi - You were right I checked all setting in the setting app that came with the phone, but then I downloaded sound manager. I opened the app pressed menu key and under Notification Setting/ Don't Vibrate was checked so I just changed it to Vibrate Whenever Possible. Then tested my notifications in handcent and it works.

try go launcher sms, in go launcher sms settings you can configure to off vibration ..

Get handcent sms from market
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda premium
all i can find is handcent language packs, but anyway, why do i need an app for my phone to vibrate
The app is an alternative for the stock messaging app and it has its own vibrate settings.
The app's full name is "Handcent SMS"

This was also driving me nuts. Until just now since I finally figured it out. You just need to open up the messaging app itself, hit the menu button, and click on messages settings. Make sure the vibrate option is clicked and voila, we have vibrate.
This is different from the notification vibrate in the regular settings menu.

Just as Duffey1 said its a separate setting in the app itself. If you want more control such as the vibrate pattern then you will have to install another app from the market or rom such as liberty3 that has this built into the SMS app.

i think my problem was different, because i did check the settings in the messaging app itself also the one in sound settings and even though it was enabled , it still wasn't working, i did end up fixing it though, i downloaded an app called sound manager and enable vibration in there and now even after uninstalling sound manager, my sms vibration still works
i actually had this happen to me twice, both times when switching ROMs, and both times sound manager fixed the problem

Enable audible notification/ vibration for incoming text while talking on the phone?

How do we enable notifications of incoming texts for when I am talking on the phone?
My other phones would make an audible beep and/or vibrate when I got an incoming text while I was talking on the phone and I think this option is a necessity.
My GF thinks I was blowing her off because of this new phone and I'm in the dog house.
Thanks in advance.

Stock is not great. I use Notify Pro.
If its a stock ROM, it may not have the feature to enable that. If its a custom ROM, it might. Stock or custom just go to sound in setting, and look for "vibrate on notification" and enable it.

Which texting app are you using? I'm very happy with 8sms. It has a setting for 'In call' notifications including sound and/or vibrate.

I just got the Moto X, so it's 100% stock.
Thank you for the suggestion of 8sms. Maybe I'll give it a shot. :fingers-crossed:
On the meantime, I was hoping I could enable the stock software to alert me of incoming texts while I am talking on the phone.
Thanks again.
Try using Volume Ace from play store.. Ll work definitely

Do Not Disturb - function

When I press the 'do not disturb" button, calls and sms messages are set to quiet, I do not get a sound, this is great. But unfortuantely other apps, like whatsapp, still make sounds when a notification has been send.
Is there a way to solve this?

nobody?
Can't help. Had the same problem on the first software version that was on my phone. Never bothered to try it on the version I have now.
But I'm not surprised it isn't working. Seems only the default apps from the rom are muted.
