Hello,
I'm pretty new to the android system (previously windows mobile) and I don't really understand how to start or stop the vibrations when the ringtone is ON. For now, the phone always vibrate when ringtone is ON, and if I deactivate the vibrations on the app notification itself, it will not vibrate even in vibrate mode.
Is there a way to easily choose to have vibration or not, regardless of the ringtone volume and the app notif setting (I don't want to go to setting and activate vibrate mode for all the app one by one each time I want or don't want the phone to vibrate!)?
Just enable vibrate while silent and disable vibrate with ringtone, for notifications though its a per app basis, or u can choose to entirely disable vibrations by completly decreasung vibration strength.
May I know where to find the option to decrease the vibration strength?
I'm using Mate 10 Pro

There is no setting to adjust "vibration strength".
But if you go to settings > Sound > you will notice in here there are two settings for vibration (single sim) or three settings if you are using 2 sims.
You will have to experiment with these variable settings to achieve what it is your trying to achieve.
You can turn on vibration for all apps in their individual settings and they will vibrate or not depending on what you do in the "master" settings I mentioned above.
However, if you want only certain apps to vibrate, or not, while leaving the master vibration turned on, then you will have to make those adjustments individually.
Thank you for all the replies.

That's where I'm stuck. I set the vibration ON in the app notification, since, I want the notification to be able to vibrate when I ask for in the master setting. But I don't find a way to choose only the sound but not the vibration in this case :/
The settings relative to the SIM are about calls, I don't really car about those one, it's more about messenger or WhatsApp, sometimes I just want them to "bip" without having the vibration that are not good with this phone, looks like a piece of metal that resonate in a metallic box. Somewhat awful in fact for my personal tastes.
I would gladly cut off the vibrations from the app notification, but there are some times, when the phone is into a bag or a pocket, were vibration is far better than sound.
WM10 and all WP previously had the simple vibration master toggle control on the sound volume panel that can be activated or not regardless of the sound volume and it was pretty convenient, would have been nice to have this simple toggle on android device too.

I am having a hard time trying to clearly understand what it is that you are trying to do but maybe this will help.....
For example I use Textra as my messaging app. I believe it is far better than the default app provided by Huawei.
Now open the phones master settings > sound > I have "Vibrate in silent mode" toggled ON, then next to "SIM 1 vibrates when ringing" I have toggled ON. Close settings.
Now in Textra > Settings > Customize notifications > scroll down to "Vibrate" and I have mine set to "Always"... however there are three other settings to choose from such as "Yes (except on silent)" or "Yes (only when on vibrate)" or "No". So you can take more granular control of when it will vibrate on receiving a text message. I highly recommend Textra! You will not be sorry!
Now let's look at Gmail as the next example. Open Gmail > tap top left hamburger icon > scroll down to settings > General settings > Manage notifications > under your email address is the word "Mail"...long press right on the word "Mail" itself...not on the toggle to the right but on the word "Mail". Now another "hidden" settings dialogue window will open and you will see an entry for "Always vibrate" as well as "Always pulse the notification light". This is where you can turn off vibration for Gmail while leaving it on for all other apps in the master setting.
Hope this helps!
Ok, so in fact, if the app does not allow a fine tune of the setting, we are screwed up?
For what I was looking for, here are an example with and old WP of mine:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
First slider is for ringtone
Second slider is for app and media
And then, the toggle vibration ON or OFF
There is also a setting for each app to activate or not if vibration/sound will be played, but it's the master setting seen previously that control what is done.
You could then have your apps/call ring and vibrate, or only ring, or only vibrate, or nothing at all (silent mode, slider to 0 and vibration toggle off).
So when I have my phone in my pocket I just let the volume at max and Vibration ON (only authorized app would vibrate). But when I put my phone on my desk for work and I suddenly receive a lot of notifications through WhatsApp or messenger because a discussion is ongoing, I just lower the volume, and cut off the master vibration so it doesn't resonate on all the desk (it does more noise than the ringtone itself and it's really annoying).
Considering I often answer to the messenger discussion on the computer, it's nice to have the "bip" from the phone, but not the vibrations.
But in the same time, once I left my desk, I just have to press the vibration toggle to have all the authorized app vibrate when a notification came in.
That's what I was used to have and now looking for on the mate 10 pro.
I've found that Samsung have an setting "vibrate with ringtone" that cut/allow the vibration if ringtone volume is not shut down. That is exactly the mode missing here.
I hope I'm more clear with that example, I'm not really fluent in English, sorry for that.
Of for example whatsapp, open whatsapp, use 3 dot menu and choose settings, slect ringtone to none if u dont want and toggle vibration based on what you want, every app has its own settings inside its menu, not in the master settings.

So you telling me the only way to have the vibration quiet for 20 min is to pass 5 min to stop every app in its own setting, to do the opposite after, each time I want to change the behavious of my phone, so from 4 to 10 time a day? Oo
If u want all vibrations quite for 20bminutes go to master sound setting and tap OFF vibrate which will totally stop any app vibratioms as well and turn it back on when you need it.

Yes just below silent mode there is option for vibrate in silent mode, do if u want all notifications off and vibrate off thrn enable silent mode and vibrate in silent mode as well but if u want it other way then silent mode off and vibrate on, and if u want to mute yhen turn sound all the wsy down and then mute option appears below the bar.

Correct me if I'm wrong. What you basically mean is if I want to enable vibration is to put my phone in silent mode. In other words, if the phone is not silent then you can't control the vibration from the sound settings
Ok, thank you all for the replies. It looks like it's impossible to control vibration with sound ON then. That's stupid but well, it's not like the phone was a high end one with a €800 price tag... Oh wait

It is entirely possible to control vibration when phone is unmuted, just play with the settings for a while and you will understand slowly.

I apologize, @mhamdto and I should be very stupid, could you please post a screen of your sound setting with sound ON and Vibration ON, and with sound ON and vibration OFF please. But without having to disable vibration on each app of course, cause we don't have time to disable 20 setting each time we want the vibration quiet but the sound ON.
What we are looking for should take less than 10sec to do like with other phone, so it should not be hard to do two quick screenshots of the setting.
I am just wondering if I had this issue with .125 firmware and if it's not new with .128

Ho, sorry, I was asking for @lingarajug, I did notice you were looking for the same thing as me. And yeah, the parameter in your screenshot adjust the vibration only in silent mode like you said. I wonder how @lingarajug adjust vibration with sound ON...
Edit: Contacted the Huawei Support, they told me to disable "Vibrate when ringtone". So I think the setting should be there but is missing on some firmware, I've sent them a screenshot of my sound setting and will see their answer. Hopefully the setting will be back with a future update.

This maybe software opposed to hardware...
Just got my new titan sorted out last night and firstly - really happy with it! build is lovely, UI - love it, overall really nice feel to use.
However, the volume control - volume is ok, and vibrate is fine but is there a 'silent' with no vibrate mode? i cannot find it?
You can only have a "Silent no vibrate" setting if you turn off Vibration on the sound settings...the only down side is this turns off vibration in all situations so you have to manually toggle it in settings as you wish.
You've stumbled across what I believe is the most bone-headed problem with this OS: you have to choose between silent and vibrate in settings.
In other words, I think you should be able to tap the icon to switch between:
Ring > Ring with Vibrate > Vibrate > Silent
but no! There is a vibrate toggle under Settings > Ringtones and Sound. If you have it turned on, your ringer options are:
Ring with Vibrate > Vibrate
If you have it turned off, your ringer options are:
Ring > Silent
SO, if you're like me and pretty much just want to use Vibrate or Silent, you're stuck going into Settings EVERY TIME. Even more infuriating, if you're actually on the "Ringtones and Sound" page and pull down the ringer option with your volume rocker and hit the ringer icon, you can see that your choice toggles the "ringer" switch on the page - so clearly it wouldn't have been too much harder to have the "vibrate" toggled "remotely" as well.
I love this OS, but this single flaw drives me bananas.

Why not just turn the volume rocker to 0 for silent? Then you don't have to go to settings... or do you want other things to make sound?
MS has made weird choices for WP7. (Have they ever used a phone ?)
I suggest you to vote for this missing (basic) feature here :
http://windowsphone.uservoice.com/f...the-ring-vibrate-toggle-button-a-3-way-option
Have you also noticed you can't choose the volume level of the Alarm ?

If you use the volume rocker to go to "0" and you have vibrate turned "off" in settings, then the ringer will turn to "silent" mode. If you use the rocker to go back above "0," then the ringer will turn to "ring" mode.
If you use the volume rocker to go to "0" and you have vibrate turned "on" in settings, then the ringer will turn to "vibrate" mode. If you use the rocker to go back above "0," then the ringer will turn to "ring+vibrate" mode.
There are four modes, but only two available at any given time based on whether you have "vibrate" enabled in settings.

Double-checked and it looks like I gave this three votes back in October.
Android had this nice feature where you can silence the phone between XX:XXam and YY:YYpm...any know of an app that can replicate this feature in WP8?
TIA
Apps can't change system settings in Windows Phone. There is no automated functionality in the OS for this either. You will have to do that yourself in the evening.
Thanks - guess I will have to turn off my phone at night for the first time in years. Or maybe keep it in another room for the night.

When locked, you just press the vol button (either one) and then tap the sound/mute/vibe icon upper right. Takes a lot less time than turning off your phone. Or did you mean that?
And yeah, the app restrictions are still way too draconian in WP8.

Hi DPLOY
The vibrate function is separate. You turn the vibrate on/of in the "ringtones + sounds" settings. If you have vibrate on the button on the volume controls will toggle ring + vibrate and ring. With vibrate off it will toggle ring and mute.

Odd that there are two toggles rather than one three-state toggle for this functionality.

Why not just put the phone into Flight mode? Settings > Flight mode. Or install "Pin it" from the store and you can put the Flight mode toggle tile on your start screen. You can also add tiles for WiFi, Bluetooth and Mobile data too.
if you cant change settings through apps i guess you can also not use NFC patches to set settings
I just got my One yesterday and so far ive only had one problem. When I put it on silent or vibrate mode, Notification sounds still play for sms etc. is this a bug or just how the phone works? coming from a galaxy nexus where silent mode would stop all sound.

Mine mutes sound in vibrate. I haven't used silent.
Go into the messaging app press menu and choose settings. There you will find the options for notifications

i have the same problem n this is the second htc one im using n still getting this problem..when i put the phone on silent it will ring out laud when i put it on vibrate it will still ring out laud wtf is going on ??? anybody knows
Why should someone need to modify the SMS app settings? If you put the overall phone on vibrate, that should be the prevailing condition. Mine not only plays notification sounds when on vibrate-only, it also rings...LOUDLY.
I'm having this issue as well! Every time I change the profile, I have to manually set the sound options. When I switch profiles, the settings never save. Does this defeat the purpose of profiles?! Why is this even an issue?! Anyone find a solution yet?
Turn off "Pocket mode"
Nope, still resets all profiles.
The only thing I can think of is maybe the contacts that are calling you are set up as "VIP"?
I saw another thread that said those contacts will always make the phone ring regardless of sound settings..
It's not just the calls. When I go to sounds, I select normal and put all the volumes to max. I go to vibrate and set all of the volumes to mute. When I switch back to normal, the notifications and alarms are mute and the calls are max. Nothing ever saves. I just want normal mode to have all volumes max and vibrate to mute everything. I'm completely new to Android, but there's got to be a simple way to do this.
So you're saying that after you select the "sound profile", you also manually make changes to the individual settings after that?
Because my impression of the profiles is that they are pre-set profiles.. and once you change a setting manually it is not going to "save" that change. The sound profiles are just that: pre-set profiles that you cannot save changes to.
I could be wrong though.
That could be a possibility. I find it a bit peculiar that they give you the options to change settings, but doesn't let you save them. I'm hoping that isn't the case, but if it is is there a way to create your own custom profiles? And would there be a way to switch to those profiles using the quick settings coming out with 4.2.2?
Honestly I haven't been interested in the profile feature. I pretty much keep my phone on one setup which is 80% volume for ringtone/notifications and 60% for media all day I don't need to constantly change profiles. If I need minor adjustments during the day I make them on the spot. So I'd have to look into it
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
Thanks for the help. I just find it hard to believe there's no way to set your own preferences. I even downloaded a 3rd party app that supposedly allowed you to create your own profiles. I set the Vibrate profile to silence on everything, to test it I text myself and bam the phone makes noise. Awesome. I just don't understand how this can be, it's starting to get a bit frustrating.
So let me ask a couple of questions so that I can target the right solution for you -
1. Are you just looking for something that will 'silence' your phone during certain times of the day/night? Or do you need something more complicated than that?
2. Do you need the sound profile to also have the option to be activated based on location? or just time
thanks
I'm not looking for anything location or time specific. I just want to have the option to switch off all sounds and have vibrate only whenever I need it. And the option to swap back to normal, of which I would like to have everything on full volume. For example, on the iPhone there was an external switch that shut all noises down and switched the phone over to vibrate or silent depending on the users settings. There is no external switch on the HTC One, so I'm trying to find a quick way to do that internally. I thought that was the purpose of the profiles, but I guess I'm mistaken. There must be a way to do this.

Yes, that's how the profiles (should) work.
When you want to switch to silent/vibrate, just select one of those. But don't manually adjust anything after that. Only switch the profile.
But honestly, it just sounds like you need to hold "down" volume until it hits vibrate, or silent.. and then hit "up" volume when you want sound back. Don't understand what it is you're trying to do, sounds like you're over-complicating this IMO. Because you're not asking for anything special.

From the HTC One user guide
Changing ringtone settings
Switching between silent, vibrate, and normal modes
Do one of the following:
- To change from silent to normal mode, press the VOLUME UP button.
- To change from vibrate to normal mode, press the VOLUME UP button twice.
- Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap > Sound > Sound profile.
Lowering the ring volume automatically
HTC One has a quiet ring feature that automatically lowers the ring volume when you
move it.
1. Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap .
2. Tap Sound.
3. Select the Quiet ring on pickup option.
Making HTC One ring louder in your pocket or bag
To help avoid missing incoming calls when HTC One is in your pocket or bag, the
pocket mode feature gradually increases the ring volume and vibrates when you
receive a call.
1. Slide the Notifications panel open, and then tap .
2. Tap Sound.
3. Select the Pocket mode option.
Right, that's what I thought. That this should be extremely easy. However, it is not. One way to do it is to hold the volume rocker in either direction and it changes the profile. BUT, when I switch it to vibrate, the notifications and alarms still make sound. Only the ringtone is silenced. That is not what I want. I want ALL sounds to be silenced, which is what I thought the settings would be for. When I change them it works, everything is silenced. But once I switch back to normal, Vibrate goes back to being ringtone-silent, notifcations & alarms - max volume. I hope my situation makes a bit more sense now. I would consider myself pretty tech savvy, so trust me when I say this is extremely frustrating. Thanks for your help so far though!
---------- Post added at 07:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:37 PM ----------
I just looked at it again and the "default" volumes for normal mode seem to be max volume and mute notifications and alarms. Why on earth would that be the default. Why would I want my alarms to be silent when its in normal mode. lol So I change notifications and alarm to max volume, switch the profile to vibrate and then back to normal. The volumes are then set back to max volume ringtone and mute notifications / alarm. WHYYYYY..
That's why when I want the phone on vibrate or silent, I just hold volume down. Then nothing makes sound. Not the notifications, ringtones, nothing. Using the profiles sounds like a hassle to me.
When I switch it to vibrate like that, the notifications, alarms and media are all still at max volume.
Am trying to de-activate vibration for notifications while having notification sounds active - previous devices I've used have had the option to keep sound on (notifications, calls, alarms) but turn off vibration completely, whereas I can't find a way to leave sound on but turn vibration off.
Most notifications are for Whatsapp, have turned off Vibration for all settings I could find within Whatsapp settings. Can't find anything that relates specifically to Vibration in the Xperia settings though. Am running stock standard setup for the Compact (just purchased a few days ago).

If you're receiving vibration when sound is on, it's the app causing it. The regular "sound on" profile is for sound only. Your app should not vibrate unless you set the device to the vibrate profile but a lot of apps do it anyway. I don't use those apps.
This isn't my first Galaxy S device so I know my way around all the settings but this one has me scratching my head. When my device is in 'Sound' mode my phone still vibrates when receiving notifications and I'm not seeing an option to turn it off in the Settings or Notification settings. Is anyone else running this issue? or is my phone just odd?
go into settings -> sounds and vibration -> vibration intensity
find the notification slider and turn it all to the left to turn vibrations off entirely

Yup, vibration intensity should give you all the adjustments you need for calls, notifications, etc.
The only problem with this method is that when my device is in 'Vibrate' mode, my device won't vibrate when I receive a notification. I even went to Bestbuy to check out their demo devices, and it turned out that even their devices were missing that option. I don't understand how/why Samsung would leave out such important feature. Fortunately for us, Samsung is one of those companies that actually listen and care about what their consumers want so hopefully they'll release a firmware update that addresses this issue.
