No vibration when receiving email

My Touch Pro 2 does not vibrate when I receive an email. The vibration notification works fine for texts and phone calls.

did you go to notifications in the settings and turn vibrate on for emails.

I'm sorry....let me clarify.....it doesn't vibrate for email notifications when I have the phone in vibrate mode...I do receive vibration notifications of texts and phone calls when I have the phone in vibrate mode.

It's under SETTINGS > SOUND > ADVANCED > NOTIFICATION > drop down select New Email Mssgs > SELECT VIBRATE BOX.

I'm pretty sure the default is not to vibrate for email notifications even if the phone is in vibrate mode. I believe you have to go to the notification settings and enable vibrate for email notifications for that to happen.

What I'm trying to accomplish is to receive a email vibration notification while the phone is in vibrate mode and no notification while the phone is not in vibration mode. I had that option with my Treo 700wx but it doesn't appear to be available on the Touch Pro 2. I turned on the vibration for emails and am now receiving a vibration notification while the phone is in vibration mode. I don't have that turned on for texts and still receive a vibration notification. Must be a quirk w/ the TP 2

I'm having a similar issue except that I have set my device to vibrate when receiving a text and it does not do so. My phone vibrates/rings on incoming calls. I have checked my settings in notifications and it is checked off to vibrate on new incoming texts. Ideas? I am currently on the stock ROM.

Try phoneAlarm. You can customize the notifications all you want, sounds, vibrations, LEDs, with or without visual notifications. It has a "host" program to run in the background, which I like using Sense/LF3D, or you can place it on the Home screen if you're using SPB.

makesure your system sound & ringer sound are separate & not turned on as 1.
Also make sure you use the drop down box in NOTIFICATION to properly associate with each action. I know there is an plenty of choices for each action.
