So this one is from android.. Here is what daemon must do..
Dial number and intiate call
The phone rings for other person.
When person pickes up call, ie just when the timer for ur call starts.. send vibration signal to user..
Why this is useful?
U dont have to be holding the phone to your ear while waiting for the call to be connected.. You can call and hold the phone down.. when it vibrates, bring it up to your ear and talk..
Seems like a simple script but my lack of Linux coding abilities restricts me..
Would be grateful if someone can make the daemon..

I had same feature (vibration when connected) on my Motorola c200.
I confirm it's very useful feature.

It would actually work better using slight vibration (maybe, TS pattern) during ringing, and when the call is connected, it stops. Both options are good. S60 devices also have software that does this (VibrateCall). Very useful.

From the wiki
Code:
import gobject, dbus
from dbus.mainloop.glib import DBusGMainLoop
def handle_call(obj_path, callernumber):
print '%s is calling' % callernumber
DBusGMainLoop(set_as_default=True)
bus = dbus.SystemBus()
bus.add_signal_receiver(handle_call, path='/com/nokia/csd/call', dbus_interface='com.nokia.csd.Call', signal_name='Coming')
gobject.MainLoop().run()
maybe this script can be adapted to listen to 'call starts/ended' signal (is there one) and then instead of printing, just call the vibrate via dbus..
i will try to look into it tonight if i find the time..
fyi i don't have any experience programming what so ever.. so don't get your hopes up

Should the vibration only happen when the device is left on a table? I can imagine the vibration being a bit annoying if I'm making a call with the handset next to my ear.
Update.. Nostradamus has created a deb package for the function and uploaded to extras devel.. look for out-call-vibro
