[Q] Vibration / Haptic Feedback problem - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anybody help, please!
After flashing lollipop_theme_enabler via recovery and applying a theme, I've faced some strange missbehaviour from my G900F. It lost haptic feedback (no vibration) for back and recent keys, also samsung keyboard has no vibro at all. In addition pattern unlock now vibrates on every dot like it used to only for incorrect pattern. All the checkboxes and sliders (lockscreen, power saving, sound, notification, keyboard, accessability settings etc.) were carefully examined and had no effect on the described sympthoms.
Does anyone here knows how to fix the vibration problem?
PS Another little thing which makes me sad a bit is home button, for some reason I now have to push it twice to get to home screen.

Buttons not vibrating

I seem to have lost the vibration feature on my buttons. All tabs are checked. Not recovered even after a hard reset. Probably a pre-hard reset app I'd loaded affected this.
Does anyone know of a reg tweak or another fix?
Thanks for the help

Does your phone vibrates when called?
Hi - thanks for taking an interest. The problem seems to have corrected itself.
I had to re-load .net CF 3.5. Don't know if that had an effect but after the hard reset and a couple of soft resets the buttons vibrate again.
Thanks again

Sky740, did you experience this problem again? I have not installed any other ROMs but noticed it after I installed some other software, including hd tweak, advanced config, mobilmagic button stuff and .net framework 3.5. Did you use any of these items/think they anything to do with it? I hope my problem goes away with my first Upgraded ROM. I saw another thread with the same problem, he was about to send back for warranty, but maybe I talked him out of it. Any information helps,
Thanks!
HI Guys,
Did you manage to figure out what is causing this? I have just got my HD and have the same problem...the 'haptic' vibration from the buttons doesn't seem to work. it has been like this from out of the box and i have not added any additional progs (only got it unlocked from Orange!!). the vibration works for incoming calls so it doesn't seem to be an issue with the hardware.
Any advice would be appreciated!!
Regards

well
well, haptic feedback you mean, any button you press, on touchscreen and all? The only buttons that are suppose to have feedback without touch response application installed is the home, back, phone answer and hangup buttons at the bottom. There is a setting for those vibrate items. Try settings, personal, buttons, virtual button, see the vibration check mark? Does the Teeter game have vibration feedback on yours? If these things make a difference for you, you probably don't have a hardware issue, but if your getting any vibrate, should just be settings. Some of us on here are having major vibration hardware dysfunctions, just awful
Thanks for the response!!
Sorry to hear 'bout the major vib issues
I have tried all the 'virtual buttons' settings and the touch flo settings but i dont get any response from any buttons. i tried TEETER but there's no response from that either, but again i get vibration when I'm called.
Just thought someone may have noticed a 'glitch' somewhere, cause i initially noticed that if you apply a phonelock pin on set-up, it disables the use of the end-key to lock the phone..and i thought it may have been a software glitch or something....
New to the phone and win mob so soz if these are noob q's

[Q] CM7 Nightly #71 - Input buttons not glowing

I have flashed CM7 Nightly #71. Post flash the Input buttons on the phone stopped glowing. Reboot does not help. Even boot time the input buttons are not initialised.
Any solution ?
Edit : Well played with Display setting -- With Screen brightness set to auto mode, input buttons behave normally, but take a while to glow once you unlock the screen. Well I am using brighness widget button in the power widget to change the brightness.
Edit : Well after playing multiple time now it behave normally across all brightness settings in the widget. I shall trying reboot and check if it initialises during boot time and post reboot behavior.
Edit : Input button don't initialise during boot. 25-30% brightness setting when changed to Auto brightness, Input buttons started glowing normally.
Is this a bug or input button are supposed to behave in this fashion ?

That commit messed it all up.
It remains lit for me all the time - but, your comment on the commit explains it all.
I am on #83 with new kernal flashed. Input button issue still remains. It does not come on for some settings while toggling battery settings in power widget notification.
I have installed miui camera from kevin2516. Sometimes camera sound goes after clicking few times. Along with camera sound, all sounds of the phone go off even calls. Only reboot resolves this?
Any solutions please?
The Sound Off issue is a known bug. It was *probably* solved in CM7 Stable versions, not sure though.
Move from #71 to #83 feel voice clarity during the call is reduced inspite of 4 bar full signal indication.
Feedback ---- #83 with new kernel, miui camera error with complete sound off couple if times

[Q] Unable to turn off haptic/vibration feedback

Hi,
As anyone figured out how to disable the haptic/vibration feedback? I've gone to settings>sound>unchecked vibrate on touch but it doesn't seem to have worked. I also noticed that when I turned the volume all the down using either the volume rocker or the touch screen control, the vibrate icon appeared in the top right hand corner.
I received my N10 yesterday and think it's a great device despite some teething issues (which I hope an update in the near future will sort out!), but I want to figure out if the issue above is hardware related, in which case I'll ask for a replacement.

Did you try a reboot after changing the setting?
Also, when you turn the volume all the way down, it automatically turns on vibrate for notification. That's what that icon means.

I've rebooted after changing the setting but it still hasn't turned off. As for the automatic vibrate, I thought I could turn off the vibration even though if I turned the volume all the way down, kinda like selecting the silent option on your phone and turning vibrate off.

S4 i9505 forgets "mute" setting

I have noticed that my S4 forgets mute settings after a while and returns to normal vibrate and sound notifications without me changing it. First I thought I accidentally hit the volume rockers on the side, but I just noticed (in a meeting, embarrassingly) that it happens even when I definitely do not touch the rockers. All I did was hitting the home button a few times and unlocking the screen - but nothing that would change the volume setting.
Has anyone had a similar experience? Could it be a third party app that produces this "feature"?
