Silent Profile - Different vibrations

6 replies · 3,094 views · Started 25 March 2004

I downloaded a couple of message tones so that I could have a vibrate for a message when my phone is on silent. I want to have a different vibrating tone for my ringtone so that when it is in my pokect I can differentiate between a message and a phone call. It seems that whichever ringtone I select it still just vibrates the same - loads of long beats just like my message ones. Can anyone help?

Thats really annoying then, because with my old phone I would know whether i need to urgently remove my phone from my pocket in order to answer a phone call. Now I will have to wip it out so to speak each time it vibrates. Very annoying.

The "whip it out" remark reminded me of the Bill Clinton parody song "Whip it out" 😃

Damn... it's so funny. I'm gonna be converting it and it's gonna be my ringtone 😃

hmm... I don't seem to have that problem.. I have FW version 3.42.1 and the vibrating is different in all profiles here..

message= 4 short intervals
call= long intervals as long as there is incoming call...

cheers
