Front End Code for Android Vibration

$*#@%$ ca-app-pub-4111868940087848/3418151202



To vibrate a phone we need following Permission Do not forget to declare this permission in Manifest.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE"/>

We can Vibrate a Phone Using an Activity  , Service and Using Threads.

Using Activity will not be a good Idea because it takes time to vibrate the Phone and an Activity always runs in foreground.

We will implement using Service because  a Service runs in Background.

for we need to have an Object of Class Vibrator, we do not create the Object directly but we get Vibrate System Service.

Vibrator v = (Vibrator)getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);

Add    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.VIBRATE"/>  in Your Manifest




Code to Vibrate the Phone


Vibrator v = (Vibrator)getSystemService(Context.VIBRATOR_SERVICE);

                                     // pass the number of millseconds fro which you want to vibrate the phone here we
                                     // have passed 2000 so phone will vibrate for 2 seconds.

                                      v.vibrate(2000);

                                   // If you want to vibrate  in a pattern
                                   //  long pattern[]={0,800,200,1200,300,2000,400,4000};
                                   // 2nd argument is for repetition pass -1 if you do not want to repeat the Vibrate
                                   // v.vibrate(pattern,-1);
