HTC Incredible :: Handcent SMS - LED Light Flash / Vibrate Mode
May 16, 2010
I used this app on my original Motorola Droid and loved it, but I have noticed some problems with it on the Incredible. I'm wondering if it's just me or if anyone else has had these problems as well.
1. LED Light does not change color. No matter what color I set the LED light to in the Handcent app, it always just blinks green. This isn't necessarily a huge deal, but I liked having my text messages blink a different color than my emails and other notifications.
2. LED light does not always blink and screen does not turn on. I noticed that the LED light only flashes once in a while, no matter what type of blink setting I choose. Also, the screen does not turn on when I get a text even though I have the box checked that is supposed to enable the screen to turn on despite having the popup box disabled. Once again, not a huge deal, but it would be nice if these things worked since I got used to these features on the Droid.
3. Phone does not vibrate at all when in Vibrate mode. Ok, this one is a huge deal. No matter which vibrate settings I choose, the phone will not vibrate when I receive a text if the phone is in vibrate mode. I am missing tons of texts now because I need to have my phone silent for most of the day. I checked the recent reviews of the app and didn't see anyone complain about this, so I don't know if there is just something wrong with my phone or if the app just isn't very compatible with the Incredible.

So when I have my phone on vibrate setting I can feel it when someone calls me. I have Handcent btw if that makes a difference. But when I have the phone on vibrate and I get a text it doesnt vibrate?I have looked and cant find a fix.

I have downloaded Handcent and love all the options that it gives. However, there are times when I set my phone on silent and do not want anything to vibrate. I have went through all of the settings and notifications and changed everything to "never" vibrate. But still when I receive a new message it does the 3 or 4 vibrate tones. I am sure I am over looking something, but I am gettng a little aggervated.

I'm the kind of person that always wants their phone on vibrate mode. The problem is that if i accidentally tap the volume up button it goes to either silent or the ringer is enabled. Is there a way to always keep it in vibrate.

I love my Incredible. One thing I can't seem to figure out is how to have my phone in vibrate and be able to know when I receive an SMS or email message. I was reading up on the Moto Droid and nexus one forums but the fixes they had (outside of just using an entirely different app for SMS) didn't seem to apply to the incredible. I set it to vibrate but it only seems to vibrate when it rings, not when it's set solely to vibrate.
So I ask, is it possible to receive a vibrate notification of an SMS or email when the phone is in vibrate mode? If I'm at a movie or something, I like knowing if I got a message.

I can't get a little vibration when I receive an email/text message when the phone is set to vibrate mode? I'm the kind of guy who likes to set his phone to vibrate, put it in his pocket, and only (or mostly) take it out when a notification arrives.

Is there any way to increase the intensity of the vibrate mode on the Incredible. We tend to shoot people in meetings when their phone rings and the vibrate mode is so suttle I don't even feel it.

The one problem i've not been able to resolve is when i take phone out of my pocket, i often hit the volume control button, which takes the phone out of vibrate mode and turns on the ringer. has anyone found an override or another fix for this?

I lost my dare phone and need a replacement. I was looking at the droid for its led flash, and rooted wifi teathering for my ipod/future ipad. Also love the gps feature. But the camera kinda sucks, and i'm big on cameras and i'm not sure how future proof the processor is. The incredible does not appear to have an LED flash worked out yet(was my favorite feature on my casio tough phone) and as far as i know none has successfully tethered it to an idevice yet? Do you think wifi tethering is going to be a future on this device? And how do you think Big red is going to handle it? And with the LED flash is it just a matter of time thing or are the talented app developers running into some blockades? Any other considerations between the two devices? keyboard i could care less about, and the price right now is the same.

Phone will not vibrate when I receive emails, SMS, or gTalk messages if I put it in Vibrate Only mode. Phone calls do vibrate. In settings for each of those apps, I have a check mark in the Vibrate box. My Vibrate mode *used* to work, but when I uninstalled Quick Profiles it seems to have killed vibrations for everything except phone calls.

I have a question about handcent sms application. Whenever I get sms via standard message program, my trackball lights up. However, when I'm using handcent sms notification, it would not light up. I have turned the trackball light on in the settings, but it does not work. Does anyone else have this problem?

Handcent won't vibrate for any incoming messages. Here is what I've done:
-Phone vibrate is checked in 'Sound & display settings' for Android.
-Vibrate is checked to always in Handcent.
-Tried multiple vibrate patterns in both normal mode and vibrate mode.
-Tried multiple vibrate patterns for vibrate 'Only when device is set to vibrate mode' (option in handcent) while having the device in vibrate mode.
-Tried uninstalling and reinstalling Handcent.
Phone vibrates normally for all other applications.

I have tried handcent and chomp. For some reason I can not get the phone to vibrate when I receive a message. It works with the weak stock Eris vibration, but nothing with chomp or handcent.

I'd like to turn vibrations off completely throughout the phone but it still vibrates when i get texts. there doesn't seem to be an option within handcent to turn it off. i'd rather just have the ringer.

How strong is the vibrate mode on the Evo? I currently have a Hero and I miss calls all the time because it vibrates so weakly. This is huge for me because I actually leave my ringer off most of the time. Anybody had any problems with it? Anybody own a Hero previously and know what I'm talking about?
My Evo should be arriving in the mail Monday. I'm excited, but I will have to seriously consider returning it if I have to keep telling my girlfriend that I didn't feel her phonecall.

Back when I had my LG Envy, I could set it to rign and vibrate at the same time, cause at time I am in a load area and cannot hear the ring. Can I set my Ally to Ring and Vib at the same time?

I just got my droid x last week and I like it. I only have a couple problems. One I can't seem to getnmy phone to vibrate when receiving txts or calls when in silent mode. I went into settings and I have vibrate set to only vibrate in silent mode but it doesn't.Also it may be just me but it seems like other phones I have the in call volume was extremely loud. My old phone I could hear the person clear as day even holding the phone away from me. With the droid x I have volume maxes out but its not white as loud. Its not that bad I can still hear but I was just wondering. My other speakers such as media work great and are extremely loud. Any info is greatly appreciated. Thank you and God bless.

I thought the Epic 4G had flash lite or something like that. I cannot get any flash content to load but I do see Flash installed on the phone.

When taking pictures in low light, my flash seems to be way too bright. It completely washes out almost the whole picture. Any special settings I can use?

Just wondering if there was an app out there that uses the camera LED light as a flash light? I know there is a few for the htc phones, but haven't found one that works for the epic.

If you set something, let's say messages, to vibrate, it vibrates even when the phone isn't in vibrate mode. In other words, in normal mode - you'll get an audible alert and vibrate. If you turn off vibrate for messaging, then switch the phone profile to vibrate, the phone doesn't vibrate for messages. So it seems like it's all or none - vibrate always on, or always off. Is this what others have found? I tried installing Quick Profiles and creating profiles but the behavior is the same. Is there an app that has more granular control and can actually control vibrate?
