[Q] How to disable vibration for EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR CALLS - Galaxy Ace S5830 General

Hello all,
I have a problem. I'd like my phone to only vibrate when I receive calls, and nothing else. Text messages should not trigger the vibration, nor any incoming emails. Only when someone else calls me.
Right now, my phone has vibration COMPLETELY disabled, meaning that even when people call me, it doesn't vibrate.
How can I mess around with the settings such that calls trigger the vibration?
I'm using the stock rom, if it makes a difference. Thanks!

I have disabled the test message vibration, as i use Go sms pro and i have disabled the vibration in it...
so only for calls my phone vibrates.
and for email.. I dont check mails in my mobile usually.. so u can disable vibration in ur email client app too

Individually go to each app settings and disable the vibration
Be Kind everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle

I never knew that you could individually change the application's vibration settings! That should do the trick.
I currently have the default Messenger App. What I've done , is go to Settings>>Notification Settings>>Select Ringtone>>Silent. I've left the notification under Settings>>Sound to "Vibrate to always", so hopefully that works?
And on a side note, what are the advantages (if any) of using Go SMS Pro over the stock SMS application, besides customizable themes?
Edit: Doing what I've described above does not give me the desired results. The phone still vibrates when text messages arrive.

SOLVED [Q] Phone doesn't vibrate when receive a SMS

Hey guys,
weired question...
My x10 MP doesn't vibrate when I receive a SMS.
Yes, I know there is an option in the SMS app that enables the vibration, it's on
Also, is it possible to receive a notification of a new SMS without showing the first 50 letters of the SMS on the notification bar?
Same here, mine also no vibrate on sms and emails alert..
But it does vibrate with incoming calls if I put the phone in vibrate mode.
Not sure what fault it is, everything seemed setting right in the setting menu.
Finally I figure it out!
Step 1 install handcent sms
Step 2 go to your sms configurations and make sure that the vibration notification isn't check!
Step 3 uninstall handcent sms.
Step 4 go to your sms configurations and make sure that the vibration notification it's check!
It works \o/

I got it working too..
Installed AudioManager and set notification alert vibrate box checked and everythings worked as it should be.
Just wonder why it did't work when everything is in default setting(no 3rd party sound/audio app installed) with Alert vibrate checked.
It must be the firmware default bug...
Do you think there's a way to activate it without installing something beforehand?
I don't know, because the initial problem was (i think) caused by handcent
On my issue, I didn't install any 3rd party sms but still the vibrate don't work. Until I installed this audio manager and solved..

I don't know what caused the problem, but the Handcent SMS seemed to work.
Thanks

Whatsapp Vibrating when vibration turned off in App

Hi Guys,
I've noticed a problem with my Whatsapp the last couple of days, I have single messages to vibrate when coming through, but group messages to not vibrate (I'm in a lot of groups and its problematic when I'm at work )
I've uninstalled/reinstalled, and its swtiched off in app, but no matter what, I still get vibration when a group message comes through, which is a lot.
Has anyone else noticed this? I've looked through the S5 settings but cant seem to find anything to fix it. It's only happened since I updated WA 2 days ago.
Also, I should add, I changed my cache from dalvik to ART, so maybe that could be it?
Cheers.

In groups or single notification... there is an independent configurations; I had ART and Dalvik and no vibration at all
Hi Mate,
I never had any issues at all until the other day, I originally used the in app settings to control vibration, but even if they are both off it wil still vibrate for new messages,
I've gone back to Dalvik as the phone was begining to lag and hang, but still have the issue with whatsapp.

			
				
Sorry guys, I didn't realise it was that confusing.
the break it down.
Until the latest update (about 3-4 days ago) I had single messages in WA to vibrate, but group ones not to vibrate. This was controlled in the App itself, via settings -> Notifications.
So I had Vibrate: Default for Message (single) notifications and Group Notifications Vibrate: Off.
BUT it still vibrates for group message, even though its off.
Does that make sense now?

This is happening with me too since the last update and is driving me nuts!
Hello!
I'm having a similar problem, did you manage to find a solution?
I had opened a thread about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/whatsapp-bug-please-help-t2824223
I reported the bug to Whatsapp, they told me it's a feature lol! I asked them if this was indeed a feature then what's the use of the "default" setting under notification->Vibration. No answer.
I upgraded Whatsapp about 5 times to different new versions to no avail. I even uninstalled it and reinstalled it to no avail.
Is there any solution? Can we use tasker to fix this?
Thank you kindly.
Issues Resolved???
Hello!!
I am also in a similar situation.
My phone(HTC M8) Vibrates even after all the Vibrations are turned off.
But this happens only when the phone is in Vibration mode or Silent Mode.
In the Normal mode audio comes but no Vibrations.
Need to stop all Vibrations for Whatsapp Notifications.
Any Suggestions??
Thanks!!

Reporting this bug to whatsapp since april 2014? or early....but they donĀ“t do nothing.
I found a workaround: If you want no vibration put Whatssapp Tone notification: None
I suggest all whatsapp vibrate problem :
Go play store and install app ops and than reboot your phone open app ops and find whatsapp kill permission of vibrate
Wattsup just updated.
Also make sure you have Notification for GROUPS and individual messages turned to OFF in Wattsup Settings !!
1st seleck on vibtare on go back exit from app and now select off may be its work
Im also face this problem in my note3
Same problem here with 2.12.194. Before the update I had individual messages vibrate on and group message vibrate off. Now with every message in a group chat the phone vibrates. I already uninstalled and installed whatsapp, deleted cache, even downgraded to 2.12.193 where I didn't had this problem but now it's present!!! :S:S:S:S

For those people who end up in this thread because they experience this issue: I've found a solution.
Go to: Settings --> Notifications --> Notification Sound --> "Silent" AND Settings --> Notifications --> Vibrate --> "Off"
Do this for single messages, or group messages, or both, whichever you need.
The problem is that if you set a sound (instead of silent) for these messages, but then set your phone to silent/vibrate, it will try to play the sound when you receive a message, but the phone, not Whatsapp, will "convert" it to vibrate.
I can confirm it on WA 2.12.252, even if Notification sound and Vibrate are set to Off :/

Sms screen on

I have an issue that keeps causing me to hit the emergency call button on my phone.. Every time I receive a text message my screen turns on. I've tried literally everything that I can think of. I tried turning off all notifications from the default sms and downloading go sms and disabling screen on, that didn't work. I tried freezing the sms app and using go sms, that didn't work. Finally I deleted all 3rd party apps and turned off all notifications for sms then had my wife send me a message, and my screen turned on with no sms notification but it's still turning on when I receive a sms. It's only when I receive sms that it happens. I have a ZTE grand x Max plus Rooted and ready to try anything that you guys have to offer. Amazing phone other than that little annoying "feature"

[Solved] Possible Bug? - Amber Alerts

So myself and several others at work are getting Amber alerts on our phones.. I'm the only one on the G5 and also the only one that is unable to clear the alert. I get the tones, loud as ever, despite my audio settings... But I get nothing as far as popups, notifications, etc. So... I have no way to clear them.
Anyone else with this issue? Any way to disable this completely? Thanks in advance to all who reply
EDIT: I resolved this issue (with the help of the comment below this post)... I use Textra as my primary messaging app, and use Nova to hide the stock messaging app. Textra does not display the alerts, but still allows the tones to generate. So, once I went into the stock app and changed the settings, all is fine now.
I have an OEM app on my phone called emergency alerts. I haven't received any yet, but does your phone have that app? When I open it and go to settings it gives me the options for Presidential Alerts, Extreme Alerts, Severe Alerts, AMBER Alerts and Test Alerts. You can turn each of them (except Presidential Alerts) off and on.

Allow notification sounds for app only if there is no notification one after another?

Hello,
I like having notifications for all apps turned on, but there is pretty annoying stuff going on in all messaging apps we have.
For example
-if someone is sending you texts or messages via messenger, whatsapp, or viber or anything else, you are getting constant notifications sound everyfew seconds.
-if you have group messages and people are sending messages you constantly getting notifications
My question is, is there a way you could enable for all apps that: If you receive notification from app X and get notification sound, and if you get another notification from the same app, the sound does not happen because it is such short time before last and this notification. And we could setup for example allow sound only after there was 1min or 5 min after last notification sound, when it allows for the sound to happen again.
That way you could receive notification sound only every 1min or 5min or whatever you setup, if you have group chat and people are constantly typing something. Because if not, you are getting the sound every 3seconds.
I hope you understand and can help with this
Thank you
