Vibrate not working with text messages

Just did a hard reset.....Come to find out, you have to have the "Enable sounds for......1. Programs, checked & 2. Notifications, checked" ................ in order for even the vibrate on text messaging to work.........

That might have been it. I had to enable notifications to make sure the alarm worked. I am pretty sure I had it disabled when I first got my phone because I thought it would make a ring sound if it was enabled. I guess I didn't need to worry if I set everything on vibrate but left the notifications box checked.

From your screen, go to Start (upper left corner), click on it and then go to Settings at the very bottom of the list that appears. Once in there you should see an icon labeled Sounds and Notifications (Personal tab). Click on that icon and then you will see the checkboxes that cmilviper is referring to.
