Okay - I changed the setting to vibrate when i send a message and when I receive one. Neither seem to be working. Can anybody get this to work on their phone? Could I have changed a setting elsewhere in the phone that would override this?

The phone should have been on vibrate by default. Does haptic feedback (the vibrating when you type on the keyboard) work?

Yes, i does work. I mean the phone vibrates when i get calls and such. Just nothing when i send a txt or get one.

hahah... shhh. They can't see my noted reasons for deleting the posts.

Well deserved reasons might I add.

You are a very patient little hairy green blobbed man.

I know.. I've been getting too many "admirers" lately, so I've been pretty slack on the infractions.

I've been trying to figure out the same thing for 2 days. It vibrates when the volume is all the way off and I rec a phone call. I can also set my alarms when the phone is in silent mode, but can not figure out how to set the phone to vibrate for messages.

ROFL!!!

Glad i'm not the only one. I downloaded the evo user guide and set it up accordingly. This a software issue?!?

Can anyone confirm that this indeed is working for them?

To set it you need to hit menu-settings once your in the message app. Select 'Vibrate when messages are received'

haha.. yeah. If you hadn't figured it out, my avatar is actually the Android rendition of Kimbo Slice.

But anyways, back to the original topic.

I tried to set once in messages, still doesn't vibrate if the volume is set to silent.

Kelmar

Hulk suits you better.

Original topic it is....

vblick

Does it vibrate when you're in vibrate mode? Or you simply aren't getting any vibrations when either sending or receiving in any mode?

Come on admit it my comment made you laugh..

paullaferriere006

It only vibrates when I rec a ph call... if set in vibrate mode. Text msgs just show up in the notification bar if set in vibrate mode. It's the only problem I have thus far.

vblick

Hey othe people in this thread (the hulk bunch) are you having the same problems we are?

jrog28

Same issue for me as well.

Kelmar

Messages>settings

Do you have Vibrate checked???

Trident

What Kelmar said...

vblick

Yes I do have it checked. If you download sound manager from app store it will fix this.

I'm assuming you guys aren't having this problem. People on the spring forums have this issue too.
