EDIT:
Just Found another place to look which is more likely the area to edit:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0

thanks for your reply
i have a registry editor (phm reg ed)
i have not done any reg editing (still building up the courage)
i went to "HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0"

there i have listed:
Category:
SavedSound:
Script:
Sound:

what exactly do i do there?
i am assuming i need to change a value
which one? and to what?

I would try editing the the script. I have av0pw3r there currently. To the best of my recollection, here is what each means:

a - activate the screen
w - wait
r - ring

The v and p I'm not too sure about. I would try changing the numbers first and see what happens. Sorry I couldn't have been of more help. I'll try to find the post that I originally saw this discussed on and get back to you.

EDIT:
Here is the information you need:

Ok so to change the vibrate function during a phone call ring its


Phone Ringtone Script [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0]
Change the value of "Script"
Here's the code:
a - stands for display
r - repeat/replay the script again
c - sets the volume C50, c150, c100
f - means flash .. f1 flash for 1 second and f0 stands for flash continuously
p -means play ringtone
v- vibrate then incorporate te]with number to state how many seconds it will vibrate example. v3 vibrate for 3seconds or v0 for continous
w - stands for wait or pause then specify how many seconds like w3(wait for 3 seconds)

With this you should be able to get what you want. I'm going to try my hand at it now too. Good luck!

Thanks for the update.
Here is what I have there:
c50apw3c150r

I am actually trying to change all vibration setting (especially for alerts like sms, voicemails, etc)

I will try what you have suggested and post back as well.

No Luck in modifying these settings.

I am a bit surprised more folks are not intrested in this change.

I would have thought it could be a candidate to be added into the famous TP2 tweaks

Use Vibro.

It was for rings at first, but we convinced earthjumper to do SMS. No e-mail though.

You sir, are a bada$$! Thanks!

[quickstang]

No problem. Hopefully that's what you are looking for. I was so frustrated with the long 3 vibrate garbage, I looked high and low for something like this. Now it works much better.

I even think doing say a vibrate and tone would be great.
That way we know if it's an e-mail, sms, or mms coming in.
...i've been looking for something to replace it with alerts, and nothing so far that is even close..

Couldnt agree more...That is one of the reason I too wanted to get information on changing the vibration pattern...

quickstang...
Which version have u used?..is it 0.6?
You have used this and have had no issues?

I am surprised that this couldnt be made into a reg edit (or a cab)...

I like the vibration when the phone initially boots up (a quick 1 vibration)...
If all the vibrations were like that ,,,I would be satisfied.

I also avoid listening to the Beach Boys.

so i tried this and it works well ...however...it may not sereve my needs as it is a bit to customizable and i am unable to save the changes that i have made...

i am looking for a simple solution that will make all/every vibration similar to the vibration on boot up (which is one quick vibrate)....

so if anyone has a solution ....pls help...

lastly, i removed all beach boys from my phone
