How to disable Haptic Feedback? - Atrix 4G General

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.

Haptic feedback on the G1?

Is the hardware even capable of supporting Haptic-like feedback? It seems possible considering the short vibration you get when tapping and holding a home screen icon. I wonder if this will be incorporated into the virtual keyboard Google promised, or if some crafty developer can beat them to it. Thoughts?
1. I would love it and theres no reason hardware can't support it
2. Our battery would last 1 hour instead of 2 hours

yes it does I don't remember the name of the app, buts on the market place and it gives haptic feed back, I believe it was gravity ringer was the name of it....
it gives you haptic feedback all the time, unless I don't understand the term.
For example, if you long press on anything on the home screen, the phone vibrates at you to let you know you've unanchored the item and can now move it freely around the screen.

(25 November 2008) Haptic Feedback 0.3.1 - LG KS20 support (hopefully)!

There are probably similar apps around, but I got bored and made my own!
Currently, there are no options. It's on, or it's off!
Download the cab from here, install it, and then run "Haptic Feedback" from the programs menu.
By default, it installs a shortcut to launch at startup, but if you don't like that, delete "\Windows\Startup\HapticFeedback.Startup.lnk".
If Haptic Feedback is already running, starting the link again will cause it to exit.
Notes:
No external frameworks are required - pure C++
Supports MoDaCo AppToDate
Coming whenever I have enough time to implement it:
Settings - lots!
A settings application
Some features I haven't yet thought about... Suggestions anyone?
Support for keyboard response
I can't be held responsible for any damage or loss caused directly or indirectly via use of this program, etc etc...
Change Log:
0.3.1 LG KS20 Support!
The "CustomLED" option allows for different LEDs to be set as the vibrate (default is 1. KS20 users should set it to 3)
0.3 Sound playback!
VibrateEnabled - enable vibration (1 is yes, 0 is no)
SoundEnabled - enable sound (1 is yes, 0 is no)
Sound - the full path to the sound file (only used if SoundEnabled = 1)
0.2 Settings! Stored under HKCU\Software\l3v5y\Haptic Feedback
HoldVibrate - keep vibration on until the screen is no longer down
HighTime - the time (in milliseconds) the vibration should be sustained
LowTime - the time (in milliseconds) the vibration should be held low
PollingInterval - the time (in milliseconds) between polls of the mouse state
0.1 Initial release
No point in a screenshot, as there is no form!
DISTRIBUTION OF THIS IN ANY FORM MAY RESULT IN VIOLENT DEATH CAUSED BY nir36, OR MYSELF - DON'T DO IT!
Feature Request
I know Heptic feedback is primarily designed to be vibrate response function but my suggestion is, Allow user setting to select both when Heptic feedback or audible feedback on or off for example only if SIP keyboard is enabled or in a specific program.
I really don't like the screen tap sound when used in general for all screen taps under winmo general settings but I would like the ability to have screen taps sound or vibrate feedback or both when I use my keyboard. So the ability to assign sounds or vibration independently of each other would be nice.

Why do you think I made it?
It only consumes as much power as getting called constantly, and it's great for annoying people trying to use my phone...
thanks for sharing its cool.

Meh...
I wrote it mainly because I find it useful, and partly to test if I can get input from the device - I'm planning on creating a keyboard hook to launch my Dialer when the "call" button is pressed.
ooo! you should also share this with supbro for his iDialer..
that would be magnificant!
i'm off to sleep, 2000 hours of studying tomorrow.

As of yet, no. Currently, the vibration motor is being controlled in the same way as LEDs, so it's either on or off... I'll look into an alternate method though.
It won't work on my LG-KS20 too. Just like the other pgm - Vibration Feedback.
this is nice little app
thanks for sharing
if u can find some way to make this just work when the on screen keyboard is up that would be awesome

I think there is a way. Vibrations in Tweeter are very light, compared to the ones when there is a call or an alarm.
Excellent App, i will watch this development closely as its something id love. For the moment it feels like my Polaris is going to explode when i scroll Sometimes it also misses its "que"
But great work, very impressed.

Idea: Clicking sound when typing on the keyboard or other apps?

I don't know if you guys saw how the Blackberry Storm when you click the keyboard it makes clicking sounds to enable the fact that you clicked each button. I was wondering if something like this is available for our diamond. Never really considered this as a option but after I saw it in use its actually pretty cool.
Thanks

Hehe thanks should have kown better been using win mobile for like 3 years. Oooh well thanks.
Except that enabling the screen tap sound is universal for anytime the screen is touched, which is horribly annoying when panning and scrolling. I would love to see an option where the SIPs (including the dialpad) are modified to click (and preferably vibrate) whenever a soft key is pressed, but not for anything else.

Exactly.
Universal clicking is so annoying and useless.
I second this request!
Hi Keyboard always had typing sounds, and I've gotten used to it.
That's the only thing missing from the great HTC keyboards...
Haptic feedback...
Someone here at XDA is already working on something like this. It's in its very early stages, but sounds like it may be what you're looking for.
Take a look here.
Hope this helps.

Looking for audible clicking, not vibration. The same result as "enable screen taps" but with the application control of this guy's vibrate program. That would be ideal.
Some 3rd party keyboards have an option to turn on clicking sounds.
TouchPal definitely does and it's also the best keyboard I've used.

Thanks for the tip, but I'm in love with the tiny, stylus-necessary "keyboard" layout on my Diamond.
Surely there is a simple reg hack for this?

TouchPal has 3 layouts including full qwerty and it works better than the HTC one, smarter T9, etc.
Otherwise, I'm sure it would be very easy to modify the vibrate software mentioned above so that it makes noise. Worth asking for help from the author.

Disable ALL vibration on HD Mini??

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.

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.

Disabling haptic feedback on lock screen?

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
