- I get two, then a pause, then the LED (If the LED decides to work). I'm using BerryBuzz. And don't have an option for how many times to vibrate.06-08-09 09:35 PMLike 0
- Select custom under vibration in your SMS and see what its set to. Same thing happened to me and I had to go in and customize everything back to 1 vibration, because after i updated with .151 files it changed to 2 vibrations. Try that and see if it fixes for you.06-09-09 05:22 AMLike 0
- this cannot be changed
in .151 sms and email now vibrate twice
the hybrid you are running has taken some .151 files and now you get the double vibration.
mine does the same with lyric's hybrid using .15106-09-09 06:13 AMLike 0 -
May also have to select in and out
Others running Beta5v6 have had this problem after loading and used this to fix. I also had to reset my ringtones after this upgrade06-09-09 06:19 AMLike 0 - Im also running Lyr's Beta 5v6 and I was able to chabge. Did you see my post above. Go into sounds/alerts and set vibration to custom and you can change to 1 vibration.

That should take care of it for you, my instructions above.Do you have the Sounds options in Options? You may have to do it from there and not the home screen launcher.08-18-09 02:16 PMLike 0

Under Options I have:
Options > Ring Tones/Alterts
help!08-18-09 02:29 PMLike 0 - Hmmm That is really weird, because setting to custom, medium, 1, in and out, should take care of it. When you hit try, does it do two vibrations or one?08-18-09 02:41 PMLike 0
- Are you serious? Damn, I hope that doesn't stick around too long. I like having a set number of vibrates for sms, email, and whatever else. When I'm in my car with my music blasting I can't here my phone in my pocket so I use different numbers of vibrations to tell me what type of message came in.08-18-09 02:41 PMLike 0
- yup, those are all the settings i use. and when i do "Try" it only does the one vibration. might have to go back to .14808-18-09 02:46 PMLike 0
- Damn! Well I would try running Lyricidals hybrid (link in my sig) and you should be cool. I wouldnt go back to .148. .151 as a base runs so much better than .148 and has way better memory management. IMHO the double vibration is a bit frustrating but not a deal breaker. As long as performance and memory management are great.08-18-09 02:50 PMLike 0

When you are at work with your phone on your desk, and for every message you recieve (mine does it for BBM also) it goes off twice rather than once, your co-workers start looking at you more often like WTF mate. I rarely have my phone on any other profile except vibrate and ever since .151, it vib's twice for every message.08-18-09 03:09 PMLike 0 - I actually find it horribly annoying (i.e. dealbreaker).

Of course you have to do this individually for SMS, PIN, Email, etc.
Thanks jgutie!!08-19-09 05:24 PMLike 0 - I took jgutie's advice and his fix worked. I upgraded to a .151 hybrid and had that double-vibrate, so I went to Options -> Ring Tones/Alerts -> Messages -> SMS Text, then the dropdown for Vibration, choose 'Custom' and it allows you to change the 'Count' from 2 to 1.
