Has anyone else notice how long the phone vibrates for during notifications?
Does anyone know if theres a way to change the length of the vibration to something shorter?
its in the settings menu.

you mean the setting that grays out when you disable haptic feedback?
Bump. I found an app, Smart Vibrate. Let's you choose the pattern of vibration for SMS, but it does so right before the default vibration, and its not very good, anyone know of better ways to control the vibration intensity for the Vibrant?

--EDIT--
After messing around in options.. I found a work around:
by going to Settings -- sound and display -- I enable haptic feedback (something i leave disabled) and when vibration intensity below it is able to be chosen.. i put it to max. I then disable haptic feedback again and magically, vibrations in handcent are stronger!
---END EDIT--
I'm currently using handcent as my default messaging application.
I noticed that when I have the vibration set to the default type of vibration, the vibration is quite strong.
When I customize it to something else (whether it's preset on handcent or i make a custom vibrate) the vibration is 10x weaker than the default..
Is there anyway to make it vibrate stronger?
Does anyone know how to globally/universally decrease notification vibration intensity?
I know there is the trick: you can turn down the haptic feedback's vibration intensity in settings. This trick only works for third party apps AFAIK; Gtalk and the Messaging app still vibrates violently.
Does anyone know of an app/method that can controle/fine tune the vibration intensity globally?
Is there any way to adjust the vibration intensity on this phone? When I touch "vibrate on call" under sound settings it just turns the vibration on and off without a slider bar to adjust it. Anyone know how to adjust this setting?
Ehi guys!
i'm trying to switch off vibration on notifications (i don't mind about calls) based on condition, because i really can't stand my phone vibrating while laying in my table at work.
I've tried 2 solution, activate vibration only while in my pocket or while connected to certain wifi.. i have no problem with the triggers but i'm not able to actually toggle off and on the vibration..
i've tried both this script https://forum.xda-developers.com/u/t...asker-t3345309 or the tasker plugin "sound mode" but they both toggle do not disturb mode, not the vibration..
i just want to:
1. vibration off + volume on while on the table
2. vibration on + volume on while on my pocket
Any help?
Thanks!!
I don't think this is possible with Tasker. My guess is, you will have to disable vibration on a system level - driver for example.
Thanks a lot for your reply! Can you be a bit more specific on your solution? I'm not sure I get it
I think it is only possible if you can find the driver file for vibration and make change there.
Some applications, like Viber, vibrate furiously in all situations and users have little control over it. My solution is Xposed and GravityBox, both of which are mostly not tasker-able.
Actually I've noticed that if I block a notification in AutoNotification, then recreate it in Tasker, the vibration doesn't go off. If you don't want to block the app's notifications on a system level, it's a good workaround.
You can also just turn vibration system wide with the Vibrate action (should be in Audio).
thanks guys, i'll give it a try
It's hard to understand why there is no LED on the Nokia 8, not necessarily a color one like on my trusty Lenovo P2, even a white one would do the trick for notifications...
Anyway I don't like audio on notifications so I was hoping to have the phone vibrate but that doesn't seem possible, am I missing something ? Thanks for any help !
Just turn Notification/Phone ring Volume to 0 should be vibration only

That would also mute phone rings, which I doubt OP wants.
@webvan You can manually turn of notification sounds for each app by long-pressing an app icon and tap: App Info -> App notifications -> Messages -> Sound -> None.
Thanks, yes I'd still like the phone to ring !
Will try the app by app setting.
ok so I tried that method and you can indeed dig into the notifications and when they are set to a high or above importance you can activate "vibrate" and deactivate "sounds". Thanks !

Seems crazy that 10 years into Android development there is no option to only make your phone vibrate when a notification arrives instead of making a sound !

May I ask what apps you are trying to turn off sound notifications? For Instant Messaging apps like Viber, Signal, Telegram, etc. I can easily turn the sound notification OFF and leave the vibration option ON. Some apps don't have those options simply because they don't send and/or display notifications.
It's strange to hear you can't do that. Try exploring all the options around the Notification Settings in each app.
Oops, had edited my message in the meantime! Yes I found that the trick is to set importance of the notification to high or above to get control of the sound+vibration settings. All good now!
