Is there anyway to disable the haptic feedback for the lock screen? I unchecked haptic feedback and there is still haptic feedback. I don't mind it so much for moving shortcuts and widgets, but for the lock screen, it kind of gets annoying. Is there anyway to disable this?
I'm running Fission 2.2.1.
I've been wondering this for some time now.. I HATE it hahaha

If it was just once, it wouldn't be so bad, like after you unlock it. But the fact that it does it when you press and then move it, that is annoying.
I'd much rather not even have any haptic though for sure.
Please! Is there anyway to stop this? Or in the future will there be??
Haptic feedback can't be disabled right now. We can only hope Gingerbread will fix the bug.
Squidlymandigo disabled it. You can install his rom/patch. I did it, worked pretty well. Its not 100% disabled, but its 99% disabled. He has to leave just a little in there so the vibrate function works on ring if enabled. But its really hard to feel that last little bit of haptic feedback. You can get it from droid forums dot net. Cant post links yet.
I honestly wish the haptic feedback on the lock screen was gone, but on the soft keys that it was a bit stronger
Im sure if you asked squidlymandigo on droid forums dot net, he would look into it. But currently it just takes out almost all the haptic.
EDIT: Just noticed, he is a member her aswell.
I wonder why...
I wonder if this was intentional or not, since on my Droid Incredible I turned off the Haptic feedback option and it doesn't vibrate just fine.
if you use widget locker you can disable it

I swear I did not change any settings, but starting yesterday my Wing would just lock itself when the screen shuts off. Anyone know how to disable this? Thanks
*edit*
another odd thing I noticed - I don't have to unlock when the phone's charging. very weird.
what programs are you using? If you hold down the end key for a second, the phone will lock. Maybe you are accidentally bumping it when you put it in your pocket or case.
Sorry I wasn't more specific... I'm running ttran's OpenTouch 3.0. when I turn on the screen (using the power button) I need to press unlock twice to get to the main menu. It's annoying and I'd like to get rid of it. idk... I didn't change anything and it just randomly started happening yesterday. help?
I agree with you PharmacySchool...I'm running Ttran's 3.0 ROM myself and the "locked" feature pop-up on me this afternoon, out of the blue. It is very annoying and I'm not sure what caused it to start happening. Was getting an address out of the contacts list, X'ed out of contacts once finished, clicked the power button to turn the screen off...next time I went to use the phone, it magically was locked and has been since. A real pain to have to hit the unlock button twice just to use the phone. Have played around a little with it, but no success on correcting the problem yet.
Make sure you're not overclocking the phone. This can cause lock ups if the CPU overheats or if it doesn't get the required voltage or for other reasons.
The lock I'm referring to and I believe PharmacySchool...is like a "key lock". How some phones have an option to lock the keys so it can't accidentally call someone if numbers get pressed by mistake or while in your pants pockets. Nothing to do with the CPU or it being overheated. All you have to do is press the button to turn the screen light off and instantly turn it back on...it's locked. You have to hit the "unlock" button on the bottom left hand corner and the tap the unlock button on the screen. After doing such...you can once again use your phone.
I have the answer!!!

I'm pretty knew at this but I ran into the same problem and I figured out how to fix it. I don't know all the fancy wording so bare w/me. On your main screen touch and hold your battery symbol/ 6th option down says DeviceLock with a green check/ uncheck that **** and your good to go.
NOW someone PLEASEEEEE create a slide 2 "answer" not a slide 2 lock. I am so tired of my phone answering its self in my pocket when I don't want it to.
A_C 's S2U2 has a slide to answer feature..... You should check it out.

I've installed S2U2-0.2-WM5 with Touch It v2.3 and had problems. I think I remember it having a slide to answer but I also remember it answering with the green button as well. Maybe there was a way to disable it but I don't know how.
Does it work better Open Touch v3.0. because thats what I'm running now.
WOW... thats an OLD version.... that version should not have the slide to answer.....Current Version is 0.99p. It can be found in the development and hacking forum. You'll need to enable the S2A feature with the settings program...Man the apps come a LONG way since your version...We got animated gif support, Random still backgrounds, an exceptions list so voice dialers will work properly and internet browsers will stay alive... Just try the new version.

NICE!!!!! Works good so far. Now I won't be divorced! LOL
Got your HD yet? Loving the vibrating feedback from those virtual button along the bottom? Me to! The question is, how do we enable this feature for other touch screen inputs? It should at the very least be mapped to the two Windows Mobile soft keys right? There is clearly some API for this since Opera it also doing it when you click on a link.
Anyone got any ideas how we can get at it?
yeah i was expecting full screen haptic feedback when i saw the spec sheet few months ago. kinda disapointed to find now that it's only for the capacitive buttons along the bottom.
if samsung omnia can do it why can't the hd?
i'm sure someone in the community will sort something out!
Actually, I noticed that the page buttons on the Touchflow 3D bar also give feedback so that's pretty cool. They don't do it when you slide across the various pages, only when you click to select one so the diffence between the breif press and a press and hold event must be detected also.
I'm sure we will see so more work done with the haptic feedback. I seem to remember that it took just a few days for some ultra bright person (CharlyV was first I think) to revese engineered the API for the G-Sensor so I expect someone will feel like writing a little app to extend the feedback funtions pretty soon.
any news? I am also keen to get haptic feedback on everything.
i use this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=450256
really really love it!
start -> settings -> system -> touchresponse settings to customize to your needs......
kudo's for the maker!

Is great especially when typing. I've dialed the vibration down so it just tingles as you type.
Hi guys,
Just wonder if there's an easy way (reg trick or something) to disable all vibration on HD Mini? I found it annoying when a phone does vibrate, so would like to make sure it NEVER vibrates, no matter what.
I know it is possible to disable vibration in settings, but not all of it — I was unable to figure out how to disable the vibration of 5 keys below the screen, for instance.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Bump. Still no ideas how to do that, HTC support didn't reply to my email and it's still very annoying...
Does anyone know if IGO8 works with the mini? I am seriously considering this device since I at the point of being able to renew my contract.
Would love to know if anyone knows. Thanks!!!
Cpt_Chaos,
Sorry, how does your question relate to my topic? Still waiting for the clues though...
I am also wondering how to disable to haptic feedback whenever i press the touch keyboard.
Hi, I am really sorry for the mix up. I had2 threads open in different tabs and this was one of the 2 that I was reading. Sorry for posting in the wrong thread. It was later and I didnt notice the mistake.

Yep, got it installed. Which specific setting should I look for?
Also got the same problem on both keyboard and the 5 keys. Any suggestion?
tactical bump
Right, so we got an official reply from HTC support: disabling haptic feedback for the 5 hard keys is not possible.
Looks like I am going to sell the damn thing.

Hmm. This sucks!
Can you please tell me how long did you wait for the reply? I'm still waiting for an answer about my email/Imap problem.
how do i disable haptic feedback? i couldnt find it under sounds menu.
I was looking for this too. You can turn it off for the keyboard under the keyboard settings.
Can't figure out how to turn it off for the "system" (soft keys).
BLOWSSS.
Nexus S is looking better and better.
yeah I can't find it either. My captivates screen is eons beyond this qHD ****. Unfortunately I would rather have the higher resolution.
nobody knows how to? This haptic feedback is irritating me...
+1 Driving me nuts. I tweeted @motorola and even asked on their forums.
absolute mess up with this haptic feedback. Neither Motorola nor AT&T has any clue of how to disable this sh$t. I hate that buzzing on my phone.
Agreed. I can't stand it. I have looked for a while but only able to find the place to disable it for the keyboard.
Huge oversight by Moto if they didn't put in a way to disable it. Its something I will probably get use to but right now.. It is annoying.
Had the same issue. Under Settings/Location and Security Settings deselect Use Tactile Feedback. Disables most of the haptic feedback on the screen though the standard Android buttons still vibrate.
I think if you download SpareParts in the market, it will allow. I will check back later and see. Normally it's in the menu's though. It's annoying as hell!

Unfortunately, this doesn't work either.
This and the fact that the battery nor the front facing camera are as good as the iPhone 4, are causing me to waffle as to if I'm going to return the atrix or not.
Bump
Has anyone figured out if we can disable the haptic feedback on the soft keys? It's super annoying IMHO.
I have asked to question in the past, and the answer i got in short was that there are no options for the 4 action buttons on the bottom to disable haptic feedback. Design flaw... and aside from that, the only way to disable it is if you downloaded a certain app, which i can not recall which one it is anymore but when i do i will post it back up here, which will disable all vibrations (including if your phone is on silent)...
Great right?
Its the dell streak app I believe that will disable all vibration. I cant live without vibrations when phone is on silent so I guess ill have to deal.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I am posting the timely reply to my email from the developer of the highly popular No Lock app, that many of us have been using for waking up our Nexus One with the trackball until we installed Gingerbread 2.3.3, for you wizards to possibly lend assistance to the developer . I questioned the developer as to getting a change done to the app so we could again enjoy the wonderful benefit of the app in waking up our phones with the trackball. Perhaps with the great knowledge base of our XDA members we can help him find a path to a fix of this most needed app. (especially those with a non functioning power button) He can be sent an email directly from the No Lock app in the Market. Let us all hope for a breakthru.
Here is his reply:
"Hi!
I wish I could do something. Unfortunately this is not in my hands
Normally my app is supposed to work exactly the same on all the devices,
and all the versions of Android. But in the real world, this is not the
case, and there is really nothing I can do about it.
On certain models, the app doesn't even work at all, and I have no idea why!
Have a nice day"
Trackball wake
I got the same formulaic reply. Obviously this developer isn't interested in fixing it on his own and perhaps we'll have to live with that. Trackball wake doesn't work with stock ROM on Anylock either, so it's a generic problem.
I also hope somebody can fix this (before my Vol key dies!)
The developer of widgetlocker commented on the trackball wake issue. It's something about pressing the trackball no longer dispatch event when the screen is off, therefore there is no way for an app to detect trackball press.

Loving GB - missing my wake on trackball!!
This is a behavior changing issue.
hope someone can make a trackball wake later..
No Lock app would be great to use with GB trackball! Hopefully it's developer will have a fix...in the meantime I'm using No Lock and the Volume button to wake my N1.
Am I missing something about trackball wake? I'm running CM7 nightly #7 and using Widget Locker with the "any hardware button unlock" feature enabled and my trackball wakes my phone just fine (even though I prefer to use the volume keys instead). Our is this an issue on stock 2.3.3?

Yes. It used to be that you could just get an app to add this functionality, but now, you have to change it at the rom level. So sure CM7 will work, but it's over the top for people who just want trackball wake to install a new rom.
Yep, i also asked the widgetlock dev about this issue. Sadly there seems to be no real fix to this.
i really hate the fact that i cannot use trackball wake anymore, especially since the power button of the nexus seems to be quite fragile and can become defect easily. There are many threads about buggy power buttons in this forums.
Workaround for me is also to use the volume buttons for display wake, which is ok, but i preferred trackball wake...
missed my trackball wake..
I normally just use the clock app to prevent my phone from locking. With Gingerbread, I also can't use the trackball to wake the phone anymore. Good thing the volume buttons still work.
Would it be so hard for Google devs to include in stock ROM an option which allowed trackball to wake up screen now that everybody knows how buggy power button is and making a good ROM even closer to perfect?
I know. I'm asking for far too much... Google listening to its customers...
