By default these were set to off, and now I seem to have to go through app by app to check they can all show. Does this sound right? Is there a way to just turn them all on?

I've just flashed Phoenix 5.2 on my phone, but for some reason if my phone is in silent mode I get absolutely no vibration when I get a SMS message. I've checked the sound settings and the settings within the messages app itself but for the life of me I can't find where to turn vibrations on! If anyone could help me, that'd be fantastic!
Thank you!

If it's on silent mode, it is set so that no vibration notifications come in. You need to put your phone in vibration mode
Is there a vibration mode at all? I'm using the silent mode that you can get to by using either:
1. Sideloader
2. Top menu
3. Lock screens
When I used to be on Cognition, the silent mode automagically put everything in vibrate mode (to my memory)... Or I must've changed a setting somewhere to make it vibrate instead of making no sound/vibrations whatsoever.
Menu>Settings>sound>vibration > ALWAYS or ONLY IN Silent or ONLY not silent
if that just isnt doin it for you try the app "SMS pop up" it will take over the notifacations at the top and you can control the vibration how you want, with reminders if you dont answer right away and pop up windows with the txt, with privacy mode if lock screen is on, custom ring tones for custom people ect...
if you use sms pop up disable the regular sms notifacation.
SMS app> menu button>settings> notifacation

Thanks for that! I've also found out what the problem was! I've had "ALWAYS" on all the time!
The silent mode in Sideloader and Top menu makes it vibrate, but the Lock Screen's "Silent Mode" makes the whole phone just go mute.
I've had the Lock Screen set to the new 'Rotary Lock' that's available in Phoenix 5.2... and it seems to be only that Lock Screen's Silent Mode that causes this problem.
Silent Mode with the normal Android Lock Screen works fine (with vibrations and etc)
Are there any apps available which will allow me to simply turn off vibrate when docked?
Although Smart Connect allows change of profiles, it only has the three standard profiles, 'Normal', 'Vibrate' and 'Silent'. My phone is set on vibrate in the normal mode usually and I just need to shut it off while docked.
Silent is vibrate off and sound off

No, I guess you misunderstood! I do not need the phone to be on silent. I want it to ring at the volume I've set. I just need the vibrate to be turned off when the phone is docked and then turned back on again when the phone is removed from the dock!
Any solutions...?
I understand now. Your will need an external app like tasker for that.

I use a different app for this and my only option is to turn off my prefered apps notifications or get both. Any suggestions?
Just picked up a Droid Turbo. I noticed when I have the phone in vibrate mode, I get a double buzz for EVERY notification on my phone, even on apps where I've specifically made sure to not enable vibrate.
For example, in the Messaging app, I've selected a notification sound, enabled notifications, but did not check the box next to vibrate. When I get a text, I get the double vibrate.
Is there something I'm missing, or is this a Moto bug/"feature"?
Unless you disabled notification sounds as well for the apps you are mentioning, you are describing the expected functionality for Android. Vibrate mode replaces all notification sounds with a vibrate patter. It does not simply disable sounds and leave only vibration preferences active.

Strange, I've had an LG and an HTC in the past and both behaved that way, where when vibrate mode was selected, it responded to each apps preferences.
Example scenario.
Gmail vibrate on notify, play sound on notify.
Google plus no vibration on notify, play sound on notify.
When in vibrate mode, id get buzzed for gmail as well as a notification icon, but for google plus id only get the notification icon.
I use Macrodroid to set "Do not disturb" but lately it doesn't work.
Does it still work for you in Android 9 with the latest security patch?
Maybe not only with Macrodroid but also other apps that set DND.
I found out that apps seemingly can only set the mode you preset in the settings anymore.
I set DND to alarm only but the app should have set block all mode.
This doesn't work. The app has to set the same mode as set in settings. Then it will work again.
