[Q] Vibrate on call - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi there,
I'm having an issue with my S5 which is starting to become problematic. When I set my phone to vibration mode and I am called, the phone only vibrates once (shortly) and then goes silent. It does not keep vibrating. This is an issue as my phone is always on vibrate whenever I am at work and I'm missing a lot of calls due to this.
I've tried setting a custom vibrate pattern to no success. When sound is on I can choose to 'vibrate when ringing', but this option is greyed out when I set the phone to vibrate only.
Is this the intended way of functoning? Can I change it somehow? Thanks in advance!

Problem... Want Vibration in Call

How can i enable the vibration even when i am in a call.
what i mean is that vibration by default gets disabled for the time being the phone is in call mode. so it wont vibrate even if some alarm or sms arrives.
I want it because i have developed an application that will make phone vibrate when call gets connected and will turn the sceen off. hence saving the battery and annoying screen clicks with my ears as i will get notified by vibration when the call gets connected.
Thanks for Reading.
I am having HTC touch ELF.

Ringtone switching back to windows default?

Lately it seems if I set the ringtone to the one I want it doesn't save it no matter what I do. And when the phone is in "standby" mode it doesn't ring at all, only gives me the red LED notification..
Still need help on this, sometimes it stays the one I've chosen but then randomly it switches back to default or "None" as it said in the soundsettings of TF3D today. I've moved the ringtone to \Windows\Rings..

Vibrate Mode Problem

Hi all, I'm new to the Samsung Galaxy S4 so bare with me. When I have the phone in the vibrate mode and I have an incoming call, it only vibrates once, like on the first ring only. I can't seem a setting anywhere to make it continuously until the call is either picked up, hangs up or goes to voicemail. I am using Missed Message Flasher so I"m not sure if that has screwed up something or is there a setting I'm missing here. I usually just leave my phone in vibrate mode all the time.
Any help appreciated.

Vibration notifications

For some reason I cant stop my notifications from vibrating when my phone is in vibrate mode. Its been a while but Im pretty sure in the past on my S7 I was able to have my notifications muted if my phone was in vibrate mode (except for texts and calls). I only want my phone to vibrate when I receive a call or a text if I am in vibrate mode. Otherwise I want all other notification sounds and vibration silent/muted/no vibrate when I have the phone in vibrate mode. This may have changed with a recent OTA update, currently on PE1. Am I missing something?
1) In settings/Sound and Vibration, Vibrate while ringing is checked and actually grayed out, I cannot unselect it. Which is fine because I want it to vibrate when ringing unless I mute the phone.
2) In Email notifications, notifications are on, but Vibrate is turned off and actually grayed out, I cannot turn it on. I have 3 email accounts setup through the built in Email app and all 3 are set to the same thing. Yet, it still vibrates when I get a notification.
I thought I had this figured out but apparently not. I ONLY want phone and texts to vibrate my phone when in vibrate mode. I want all other notifications muted. I have email vibration turned OFF but it still vibrates, along with most other notifications. Since I have 3 email accounts set up on my phone, this is quite annoying. What am I missing? Does vibrate mode make everything vibrate even if I have vibrate turned off on nearly all apps?
Try using do not disturb instead. You can customize it to allow phone and text messaging to go thru, and mutes everything else
Vibrate mode means vibrate. Why would you expect it not to vibrate when you use a setting called "Vibrate"?

No vibration on SMS

Hello, I've been serching for solution quite a while and didn't found any answer.
Since now when I just tap on volume switch in notification panel to ser vibration mode every notification was silent just vibrates: incoming calls, sms, gmail and other. Now all vibrates except sms. I went to message settings and ticked "vibrate" but then it vibrates always, no matter which mode I set. I've been looking for a mentioned setting where I can choose when to vibrate, always, on silent, etc. But there is no such option.
I never set those things up and it worked. Didn't change anything.
