I cannot turn off haptic feedback! - Nexus One General

Hello,
I recently received my Nexus and there is one issue that is rather annoying for me.
I cannot turn off the haptic feedback by unchecking it in settings. All that checkbox does is stop it on the four buttons on the bottom of the phone, I still have haptic feedback on the dialer and the lock screen.
I tried to download the spare parts app, and I've even tried a factory reset.
I find this feature really annoying and I am out of ideas on what to do..
Any help?

It's not on. I still get vibration on dialer and lockscreen.

Sorry for bumping this but am I the only one with this problem?
Could it be an hardware issue so I should send it back before I install cynogen and void my warranty.

You can't turn off vibration on dialer. There isn't an option to do that . Google plz work on this.

Go to settings - go the sound and display - scroll down to audible touch tones and uncheck that

Nope that just removed the sound and not the vibration.

I got the same issue. It seems that it is unfixable, unless they release un update with this issue fixed

To disable haptic feedback in the dialer: open up the dialer, press menu button, uncheck 'Enable haptic feedback'.
But I don't know how to disable it on the lockscreen tho :/

There is no menu on the dialler, hitting the menu button doesn't do anything.

Maybe He has a custom ROM.

Ah yes, good point.

I have CM5.0.4.1, I can see that it's credited to "ChainsDD, geesun, niuchl, rac2030 and the rest of XDA! " so, yeah it's probably cuz of the custom ROM.
I didn't realize that

Yeah, its actually Wysies Contacts app that has the option. But unless you root, you can't use it

The thing you are talking about might not be haptic feedback at all
Hi, I had the same problem after I forgot where the menu setting was. (Actually I did a factory reset yesterday.)
To turn off haptic feedback,
Go to Settings > Sounds and Display > Haptic Feedback. Uncheck it.
To turn off vibrate on kepress while typing SMS and others,
Go to Settings > Language and Keyboard > touch Input > Text Input > Vibrate When Typing and uncheck it.
Did not understand why they are at two different places as it confuses me and many. Though, thats the way it is. . Enjoy.

What the hell is the point of haptic feedback? One of the worst invention on this phone. Should simply be a "Turn off all Haptic Feeback"
or better yet.. adb shell rm hapticfeedback.apk

I am having a similar yet opposite problem: I cannot turn on haptic feedback.
This is a N1 I just got from HTC as a warranty replacement. (My first one had a dead spot on the touch screen.) It certainly has a working vibrator - When I turn in the phone and see the logo, also when I turn the phone off, it gives me the haptic buzz. I've had the same result in both stock builds and CM6.
I'm wondering if there is a disconnect in some phones where checking the box just does nothing to change the actual setting.
Any ideas?

I had to turn off Kickback in Accessibility settings.

Do you by any chance just mean the haptic feedback when using the keyboard? Cause there's a separate setting for that, under Language & Keyboard > Touch Input > Text Input > Vibrate when typing.

I would like to turn off the haptic feedback in the lockscreen, but I want to keep the haptic for softkeys. Is it possible without installing a lockscreen replacement?

[Solved] how to disable the vibrate on Android 2.2

I am using FroyoStone Sense V2 build - this build is using Android 2.2 with sense and it is brilliant on my HD2. I have set it up and am quite happy with it one thing I had trouble doing is disabling the vibrate on the dial pad - I have now found out how to diable the vibrate on the dial pad but it is a bit of a cheat way doing it.
I just downloaded NubDial from market place and it seems to sort the problem. It is free and has a nice simple black keyboard. It is fully intragrated into the address book and when you select the phone button it will prompt which dialer to use, simply select the nubdial and select the option to make as default!
If the vibrate is enabled in this dial pad simply click on windows key for settings and then go to Settings -> uncheck Enable haptic feedback! works a treet

I have managed to do it on the keyboard but cant seem to find a setting for the dial pad its self.
Does any body know how to turn this off, or is there a .apk I can download to turn this off?

I want to know too.
settings --------------> Sounds---------->haptic feedback
Don't think you can. If you go to settings, sound, there's an option to turn of haptic feedback in applications IIRC. Not sure if that would work though...
***Edit*** Tested it, doesn't work!
I searched all over the web, it seems you can't disable dial pad haptic feedback, in a mean time I use third party dial pad.

For those who have not solved this. On your 'phone' dial pad screen, click windows button, Preferences and some where in the middle you will see "Enable Haptic Feedback" check or on check, whatever your preference is and this will take care of Haptic feedback when you dial.

In sense version, on phone dial pad screen, click windows button, then phone settings, it only have edit default message, edit message, save to contact, there is nothing about haptic feedback
In vanilla version, on phone dial pad screen, in phone tab, windows key won't work, call log, contacts, favorites tabs windows key works, but there still is nothing about haptic feedback,
Im just wondering what dial pad you have.
This may have been an android 2.1 version, I think you were able to disable it there. Use the NubDial it is a nice simple dial pad free to download from market place!
If the vibrate is enabled in this dial pad simply click on windows key for settings and then go to Settings -> uncheck Enable haptic feedback! works a treet
I want to disable haptic feed back on my keyboard too, not just my phone dialpad. Turning it off in the phone settings doesn't do anything. I'm using FroyoStone_Sense_V3.1. Has anyone found a solution?

Haptic settings don't work
I've disabled haptic feedback in the android settings, under sound. It's the only place I could find to change the setting. It doesn't work.

Where should this question go then? I'm thinking if we had a stock android phone the settings would be working. [EDIT] Oh, I see that this could go under HD2 Android General Discussion.

This does not work on all versions of android. I have tried on some versions and this option is not availabe. Seems to be versions with sense enabled like the desire builds. Ones with out sense has this option. EG nesus one builds.

Disabling vibrate

Does anyone know how to disable thr vibrate when clicking the physical keys on the bottom of the phone (the menu, home, back, and search buttons)? Or even better just make it so that its not even as strong...

I second this. My vibrate on my Droid 2 doesn't work properly, so I just want to turn it off altogether.
Isn't that the "haptic feedback" option in your settings? Sorry, X user here.

Keyboard Vibrate Issues

Hey guys, quick question about an annoying issue I ran into today. I went to check my email as usual, I went to put in my pin(required as per security settings in my office) only this time the keyboard was vibrating when I typed.
I use the stock sense keyboard so I went into settings for the keyboard and saw that the 'vibrate while typing' checkmark was checked off for some reason. Not a big deal I unchecked it. But it's still vibrating when I type I've tried switching keyboards back and forth but with no success. It continues to vibrate when I type in all programs.
Any ideas guys? I have a rooted DINC on Virtuous v3.1.0.
I haven't used sense in a while but I think I remember there being 2 different places to uncheck vibration. Maybe theres an advanced menu or something. Try pressing the menu button while you're in settings and see if there's more settings.

I forgot to mention I tried that as well. That turned off the soft keys vibrate like it usually does, but the keyboard was still vibrating. Any other ideas?

Having trouble turning off haptic feedback

Just got a new Nexus 4. I went to settings>sound>vibrate on touch and unchecked it. Still getting haptic feedback when typing texts. I searched the SMS settings as well as the settings under input and didnt see any haptic feedback options. I've rebooted a few times, its still happening. What am I doing wrong or missing?
Go to settings than under "personal" choose "Language and Input". Now, look for "Android Keyboard" and press the settings on the right of it. From there you can turn off the vibration or haptic feedback.

Thanks. That works if I use the android keyboard, but I prefer swiftkey. Still getting HF when I switch back to swiftkey.
Found it. Swiftkey settings>advanced>Typing Audio&haptic feedback.

On screen buttons haptic feedback

Hi there
Am I missing something or is there no way to turn off the vibrations when using the on screen buttons? I'm sure on most phones it's under the sound menu....
You weren't wrong; it is in Sounds. Look for the "Vibrate on tap" option in the Other Sounds submenu.

Got it, thanks. I don't really understand why the vibrate on touch option is under "Sounds", let alone hidden away in "Other Sounds" !
I have every setting I can find set to not vibrate and yet it still does. Is there truly no way to make it stop? I would like to find the software equivalent of "snip the wire to the haptic vibrator". Stupid waste of energy.

When is it still vibrating? 3rd party keyboards are common sources of this, they usually default to enabled.

Every time I touch the button. I don't use the fingerprint scanner and use the "one button nav" feature, and that setting is set to not vibrate also. Every time I touch it - lock, unlock, swipe left, right - it vibrates.
