Hey everyone. I wanted to know how to change the length and style of vibrate for when I receive texts on the captivate. The original one is just to long and kind of annoying to me.
I use the stock messaging. Not handcent or chomp. Since I don't like how they look.

I know you can set the vibration pattern with handcent, but as far as I know, you can't edit the stock vibration pattern.
Hey I just installed di11i's 5.6, awesome rom, first one I've flashed. I can't seem to find the option to vibrate on text recieve, its not in the general settings pages or in the messaging app settings page. Any app I can use or osmething to enable this?
text message question
The easiest way is to go to Settings > Sound > Vibrate always
or download a sms program like Handcent or chompSMS
hmmm vibrate always still doesn't make it vibrate when receiving a message.
But Handcent looks like a really great alternative! Thanks
Hi there.
I have one problem with my LG Black, i've got installed NOVA V7 ROM and from market I install Handcent SMS and set is as a default SMS app. I uncheck in oryginal android sms application option "notifications" and now i got only one notification on my statusbar when I get a sms and thats all right, but when someone send me message i get on lockscreen notification that i've got 1 message and when i tap on this notofication and slide down it goes to the oryginal android sms app. This is very annoying becauce after i get sms I got 2 notifications, one from Handcent SMS on my statusbar and the other one from oryginal SMS app on my lockscreen, and if i go to the Handcend and i read the message this one dissapear but the second one (from SMS/MMS app) is still on my lockscreen.
In a nutshell: When i get sms i have to go to the 2 sms app because i get 2 notifications, one from handcent and one from stock sms application.
My question is: how to change this slide down opption to handcent sms or if I can't do this, how to delete this option ?
Thanks a lot for help.
If you're not madly in love with the default lockscreen you can find out there some pretty alternatives and that should solve your 2 notifications problem. I used to have that problem too but I simply changed to widgetlocker which, btw, it's more powerful and customisable and you can have whatever lockscreen you want, without those 2 notifications. If you are rooted you could also delete the sms app but i'm not sure about that. Linking it to handcent or go sms or anything i don't think it's going to work.
For double notification message on status bar, you can disable notification from stock messaging settings.
And for notification message on lock screen, it's build with stock messaging, and there's no clue yet how to disable it.

Hey, I have solved this problem. But don't know which app killed it. I have "autostarts" and "no lock". I think it's autostarts. But mind you, it is an anvanced application.
On option "When SMS Received" you'd see both, Messaging and Handcent. So tap Messaging and disable it. "After Startup" option, disable Messaging as well. You could disable Messaging as well or other unnecessary apps that autostart on other options. Like Gallery, Music etc. HTH

How to get "When SMS Received" and "After Startup" options ? I can't find them.

Autostarts app. Not on the phone itself. You have to download the app.
Autostarts by Michael Elsdorfer. Find it on the market.

Hi,
With sms popup or gosms, I can only get popups to show up for sms if I force the phone to unlock upon receiving sms (which will display my home screen with the popup). I'd like the popup to appear right on the lockscreen, so I can quick reply, just like it used to work on GB. Btw I'm on stunner.
How do I do this? Thanks!
anyone?
have a look at sms enchancer

Is there any consensus on recommendations for an app to customize vibration alerts?
People at work have the same phone, and I can't tell one vibrate alert from another. I tried to set the Vibration Pattern, but that only applies to the cell ringer; not to message, email, app alerts.
I'd be happy to just update the default vibration pattern, but it'd be ideal to set the pattern based on the app so I can tell email apart from text messages.
