Vibrate only? - Galaxy S 4 Active Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This probably has some simple solution my lame google-fu can't find, but I only want notifications to trigger the vibrate function when my phone is in vibrate mode. Right now, it's all the time or never. Is there any way to set it up so it only vibrates in vibrate mode? They quit doing it when I turned the vibrate function off and then back on for both my email and kik.

Couple of problems

I have a couple of anoying problems with the diamond. Its my first smart phone and there are som things I think the SonyEricsson handle better
First, whats up with the deal that Phone mode dissapears when you talk? When I´m calling some kind of support and need to press numbers thru the menu the phone locks after just about 5 secs and I have to go in to phone and keypad again, very anoying. Is their a way to keep in i phone mode to easy access to the keypad and ex speaker mode?
Second, the phone doesnt vibrate when it rings. When I choose vibrate-mode in the quick list it goes quite and vibrating, great for meetings. But I still want the phone to vibrate if I´m in a club or something
Third, Is there any way to shut down the function of the keypad appears automatically? When I go in the phone and wants to call I may have the number in the quick list but then I have to get the keypad away to see it. Isnt there a way to get it to appear only when I actually press the keypad button?
That was the first three questions, I suspects there will be plenty more after a while But I would appreciate any help I can get

those are not problems. those are you not reading diamond's manual or searching the forum. anyway:

this is a feature not a bug and it is for you not to start any app with yr ear.
it can be override in many ways. one of them is using advance configuration 3.2. search! search!

try settings/phone/ring type/ vibrate and ring or vibrate the ring.

also can be changed. in phone mode go to menu/view/speed dial. this way when you call you'll get behind the phone pad yr speed dial. just push the little phone icon in the middle, lower screen and you'll have the speed dial only.

i hope that next questions you are going to ask are going to be after you'll read the manual and a few threads here or you'll get ignored or worse...seriously flamed.

I was told to put Phone sleep during call and fast sleep during call to Disable and Not Allowed in AC but the problems still remains.

I want to change the way the keypad acts. So its never appears automatically when the phone thinks I´m gonna use it, when I´m gonna write a SMS for example

Can you make the lock screen toggle vibrate instead of silent?

From the lock screen you can either unlock the phone to get to the home screen or toggle the phone to silent with no vibrate. What I want to do is make it turn my phone to silent WITH vibrate or even add an option to the phones settings under Location & security settings. Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I *WISH* for this functionality!!!
+1 .
yes this would be an awesome idea!
It would be nice to have this. Coming from Hero, I really miss it (HTC has added vibrate to this menu).
If you want to make a patch for it here is the file to hack on:
Link to kernel.org
Maybe someone can make a very functioning patch, including translated strings etc and submit to cyanogen for incorporation into his ROM *hint*

Well, it kinda works. You can put the phone into vibrate mode with a swipe on the lock screen. But you can't get it OUT of vibrate mode without unlocking and using the volume keys...
Silent mode jammer in the market. Has bugs but I can get in and out of vibrate without unlocking.

Yeah, it works better than Vibrate Mode By Force. The only bug I've seen so far is if you switch out of vibrate mode, the screen still says sound is off until you cycle the screen (push power button to blacken screen, then again to wake it up) But even though it says sound is off, it's actually back to normal ringer, which is perfect!
why gollge doenst manage these thing by themselfs? everytime installing a app for basement functions is really getting on my nervs
Silent Mode Jammer seems to do the job, but as audino said I would really rather this be a built in function instead of an add-on from a 3rd party.
Silent Mode jammer works awesome. Maybe they should build this into the OS.

Phone Won't Vibrate?

Hey everyone. To start off I am running Cyanogens 4.2.14.1 and AmonRAs recovery. I have been using it since it came out and have had no problems until a day or so ago. I haven't installed any other applications I can think of that would cause this. My phone will not vibrate on a notification. When I click the volume down button to vibrate it gives me a little kick to tell me I am there and when I long press the screen it kicks as well but no notifications cause a vibration. If I turn the ringer up it rings still. Even when I go to test notification it doesn't vibrate. What is going on?
Thanks for any help,
Brad
This happened to me a few weeks ago and I used an app called "Timed Profiles", set it go on vibrate after 1 minute and it should fix itself.

Silence Bug?

Anyone else noticed that if you completely silence the phone (not vibrate mode), notifications aren't silenced? If it's in vibrate mode, then all is good, but at night I'd rather it not even vibrate.

I just put mine on silent mode and was able to get GMail and Email notifications with no sound. Did you reboot the phone and see if it persist?

Huh. Yeah, I rebooted. I just wiped to root the phone, so we'll see if it comes up again. Thanks for confirming it's just me. lol
EDIT:
Nope, it's still happening even after a wipe. It's also doing it on vibrate mode (maybe I just slept through it last night). Bizarre that it's just me, and persists after a wipe.

Doesn't happen to my wife's First.
Sent from my HTC One
Okay, so silence/vibrate work if I use the volume keys to turn it all the way down, but not if I toggle it through the power menu or WidgetLocker. Not a huge deal, as it's obviously some little glitch there. Thanks for the feedback guys.

Long vibration @ 6 am, no notification.

Good day.
I am having trouble with my phone. Everyday at 6 in the morning, the phone starts to vibrate. The vibration lasts cca. 10 seconds. No notification, nothing. Same thing happens in airplane mode. Does anyone experience something similar or has an idea what could this be? The factory reset cannot be done for now. Any other thoughts?
Thanks.

Is there an adjusted wake up alarm? May be the ring tone isn't set and so it's crashing the clock.
Unfortunately, no. Just to be sure, I cleared all the data for clock app. Thanks for the advice, though.
Hi! Same problem here. Did you find a solution?
I had the same problem, do you have set your phone to automaticly go from DnD mode to vibrate mode?

Hi gokh!
Yes I have set dnd mode from 11pm to 7am, so the phone goes to vibration mode at 7, but the long vibration occurs at 6am.
Flashed xiaomi eu Rom. That seems to work. Cheers!
