Disable vibrate in ICS

Is there any method to fully disable the vibrate function in ICS? Although it says it's disabled in the settings, it keeps vibrating when i turn of the volume and receive an email for example. I just want it off, at all times.
thx
Wondering this too. Need to turn this off completely. I am getting a loud noise on the top left of tablet when the vibrate goes off.

Go to settings, sound, and uncheck vibrate and ring, and vibrate on touch then retart the tablet. It should not vibrate any more.

That helps for sure, but doesn't disable completely.
For example if you turn the volume on the side of the tablet all the way down it goes off and it will vibrate playing some games.
I'd like to know this too... how to completely disable vibrate at all times (muting, power on/off, in apps, etc).
My vibrate motor started going bad over the last couple days, and now produces an annoying rattle sound.
I don't need the vibrate anyways, so would love to disable it.

Call Volume on, Notifications vibrate only

Hi
I wanted to know if it's possible to have to phone in a Vibration mode, where only the Call Volume is normal.
When I'm at work (and my phone's on the desk), I want to hear if someone is trying to call me, but don't want the table always vibrating if i get a text or a message in whatsapp..
I do know that in Sound Settings you can have different levels of the volume on different things.. but it doesn't let me turn it to vibrate except the call volume..
thanks for your help

[Q] Stop the vibrate when changing sound profiles...

Hi,
First time poster and I registered just to see if I can get this question answered. My issue is that I really hate that when I change from sound to mute via the vibrate icon in the pull-down taskbar that it actually vibrates. I also hate that it vibrates when I push the volume putton down towards mute.
If im lying in bed with the Mrs and not wanting to wake her while I browse my phone i want to be able to go from sound to mute and when passing through vibrate that it actually doesnt vibrate (I dont need to be told im on that setting). There is an app called mute to do this but I wish I could disable the vibrate when changing profiles entirely. The icon tells me whether it is on vibrate or not without needing to vibrate to tell me I have moved onto the vibrate setting!! Same goes for during a meeting when I am toggling one way or the other i want to do it without making a noise. I know I could use the power button to go to silent mode but I prefer to use the dropdown menu.
With my iPhone I could have just changed a text file or something but I guess its different with android?
So essentially I only want my phone to vibrate when I am getting an alert like a call, text message, calendar alert etc and not when Im cycling through my sound profiles. Maybe Im weird and this doesnt bother anybody else but it would be great to hear if this is possible to hack?
Thanks
David

Annoying beeping when changing volume

All right huys I really need your help ! How to turn off that Annoying beeping sound when changing volume ! I've scrolled over all settings. And I didn't find anything. Maybe I'm blind or there are some other ways to turn off. Especially when my wife is trying to fall asleep and i need to turn down the volume i hear Beep Beep Beep
The "Beep" is only when turning down ringtone volume, right?
No it's there up and down...at least it is on the Mate 10 non pro. It's barely audible in normal surroundings but I suppose at night in bed when all is quiet it seems annoyingly loud. Hmmm?

Yeah, that's what I mean ! I've asked lots of people but nobody kbows what to do. Maybe there's an app for system volume setting or something else... Don't know what else to try
You know if you open the sliders by pressing the volume key just once, you can then use the slider to adjust the volumes without any beeps at all.

How to turn "Do Not Disturb" beep off

I use a nightly DND schedule. When the schedule turns DND off my phone beeps. Is there anyway to turn that beep off?
I have used the system DND and several apps to schedule DND and still have the beep.
The problem being the beep wakes me up and I don't want to wake up at that time unless someone calls or texts me.
Thanks for any help.
Turn system sounds volume all the way down?
Thanks! Yes system volume is all the way down when on DND but I really think it happens when volumes are automatically turned back on. I probably need to Disable "Beep" sound on volume adjustment. Any ideas?

What happens if you turn system sounds all the way down BEFORE turning on DND? I normally keep system sounds off, and I haven't noticed my phone beeping when DND goes off. It's possible I just haven't noticed it, but I think I would have heard it at least sometimes. Yesterday I was awake with phone in hand when DND ended, and I didn't notice a beep.
