One button phone to vibrate

jfolliard · #1 (**permalink**) 01-19-2009, 03:20 AM

Many times a day I have to change my phone to silent or vibrate mode as I enter a meeting.

Is there a way to map one of the hard buttons, or perhaps a single tap of an icon which switches the phone to vibrate?

Thanks.

Jack

If you cooked a ROM recently, it will include No2Chem's famous wifi switch it has that option to turn the wifi hardware switch on the left side to any other kind of functionality, like the one that you need.

It's in the settings>system>hardware switch

Thanks but I believe "cooking a ROM" is a bit over my head.

I know you want a 'one button' deal but its only a two step deal to put it in vibe already. But to answer your Q, there is something out there and although I cannot remember exactly what it is, it is software based and more than one step.

I'm alos nervous about flashing someone else's pre-cooked ROM - is that the right way to say it?

I've spent tons of hours getting my MOgul and it's software set-up just about perfect - I am backup up but doesn't flashing a new rom wipe everything out? If it does and restoring is simple and restores everything not just data but all programs and their configurations - but I'm not sure that's what happens?

thanks for any advice.

can you explain a little more step-by-step? Is 2 comm manager a separate program? Or does s2u2 give you the screens you've attached to your reply?

thanks.
