Vibration intensity - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, does anyone know how to turn down the intensity of the HTC One's vibration on notifications?
When I have it on a desk, and I receive a WhatsApp message, it vibrates really loudly (even when it's not on a desk, the vibration is loud enough that people near me can hear)
Any help appreciated!

any way to increase vibration?

I am looking for a way to increase the strength of the vibration on the HTC diamond for indicating a new sms, incoming call, etc. With the phone in my pocket or in a case on my belt, I am lucky if I can barely feel the vibration. I need to keep it on vibrate, since I am a med student, and don't want the whole hospital knowing I just received a call, text, or email. Anyone have any tweaks that can increase the vibration strength?

[Q] 'Incoming Call' Vibration instead of 'Notification' Vibration

Hi all, I have just got my Galaxy Note from South East Asia. I just want to check whether this is a bug or everyone else's gnote is doing the same thing.
Like the title says, When I received a text message, gtalk notifications, whatsapp notifications, gmail notifications or any other notifications, the vibrations that is coming from the phone is the 'Incoming Call' Vibration instead of 'Notification' Vibration. The 'Incoming Call' Vibration is the long buzz and the 'Notification' Vibration is the 2x short buzz. So when I am chatting with multiple people, I get multiple long buzzes, this is driving me crazy, not just that, this is draining my battery as well..
I hope someone can help me, I want and need the vibration, but I just want the 2x short buzz..
p.s. I have played around with the settings with every single apps and the phone settings, but nothing seems to fix it. I have also done a hard reset, problem still there.
Is anyone else having this problem? If this is normal, then is there any apps or anything that can change this? Thank you in advance for any input..
Can anyone just let me know what are their notifications vibrate and the incoming call vibrate? I just want to know whether mine is acting normal or not? could some help me in replying please?
this is common even my phone vibrates long.. try keeping a short tone like single beep or something. This may reduce the duration.
U can actually set different vibration intensities for incoming calls, notification and haptic feedback ...what i did was to reduce notification and haptic feedback to zero so that my phone only vibrates for incoming calls. go to settings/sound/vibration intensity.

the problem here is that the vibrate that I receive for incoming calls & notifications (sms, email, etc) are the same. when setting my phone on vibrate and when I have it on silent, I cant tell the difference whether it is incoming calls or just a sms text when I have the phone in my pocket. this makes me to respond quickly to my phone whenever it vibrates, because i use my phone as business use, since I thought those vibrates are incoming calls.
thanks to you both for the reply.

Vibration to soft

Does anyone else have trouble feeling the vibration for a notification. If driving I never feel the vibration. The only time I really feel it is I am doing nothing, no move of the arm and then I feel a small tingle. I do have the vibration setting on strong and have all audio disabled as I am hard of hearing and wouldn't hear them, only annoy other people.
We need an app that lets us set vibration patterns, allowing for a longer vibration instead of the two short pulses.
Agreed, my Pebble vibration is much stronger. Sometimes I don't even feel it on the Gear

[Q] Very loud, but very weak vibration motor

Hi,
I've bought new Sony Xperia Z1 a few days ago and overall it's a great device, but there is one issue, which is very annoying for me.
The vibration motor is very loud, but at the same time vibrations are just weak, so that when the ringtone is set on the lowest level, the motor is louder than this ringtone and when I keep the phone in my pocket I can hardly feel anything when it's vibrating.
In the keyboard I've set the shortest possible vibrating time, but it still makes more sound than vibrations.
The pitch of the sound is increasing with the duration of the motor working: eg. when I push home button for one time, the sound is quite low (but still loud), but when I press a few times in a row the sound gets higher and even more irritating.
Is it normal behavior for this smartphone? It's very annoying, because vibration should be discrete way to notify me about incoming calls or text messages. The fact that it is louder than a normal ringtone makes it useless.
Is it possible to fix it via software or is it a hardware issue and I should send the phone to the repair center (i'm afraid to do it, because they've destroyed my phone in the past).
I have the same problem, sometimes it works, but mostly it is making a scratching sound.
I've turned off the vibration when pressing the screen/keyboard, makes too much noise.
It is probably a hardware issue, i want to fix it by myself, because i don't trust the repair centers.

vibration very weak here: if in pocket or on any surface I can hardly feel it

vibration buzz

the vibration is a little noisy like a buzz, do you have this too?
Yes. And the vibration doesn't always work. Very disappointing. I'd say the vibration is broken on this phone, especially with typing. I've turned it off completely.
