does anyone knows how can i remove the vibrate from main menu "button",search button and back button
I'd also love to know this, but I think we're several months away from being able to hack the phone to this level. Something like this would I imagine be integrated on a level that's not yet open to users, but here's hoping.
I don't need the key to vibrate when I press it. I know I've pressed it because... I pressed it. And every vibrating key has visual results. For me, the vibration is also annoying.
You can't.
At least not yet...
just got this phone myself and agree it does get a bit annoying,it is standard on all phones i had until now
So i've been dealing with this for the last week or so and I finally decided to stop searching and scouring the internet and ask for some help from my XDA brethren.
I don't exactly know how or why, but all the hard buttons on my HD2 do not work anymore. Volume up and down, pick up, home, menu, back, and hang up buttons... all not working. They all stopped working at the same time.
I don't really care except for the fact that I cannot wake my phone up after it locks/sleeps. I tried an app called Shake and Wake with no luck. Any sugguestions? or should I just look for a new phone? I really don't want to give up on my HD2... we've been through a lot! Thanks a ton you guys, I really appreciate it.
If I were you I would head on over to the nexus one threads and ask the question.
That phone only has one button, and some folk have had that not work, so they are used to the problem, and I'm sure they will have a solution for you. Worth a try anyway........
Button Savior - free from Market
Jadrobe, I really like button saviour but that still doesn't solve my problem, how do I wake the phone up without any buttons?!!
do your volume buttons work? if so, you could use ButtonRemapper (paid app) to remap one of your volume buttons to work as your power button and do the rest with button savior.
Nope, none of the buttons work!! I'm screwed!
Then yes, you are indeed screwed. Sorry for your misfortune.

Pretty much. If you have one working button then you could use an app called "button remapper"
Have you flashed back to stock/something different yet? Seems a touch coincidental that they all go at once. The bottom 5, or the two volume yea, cos they're on two separate input busses, but for both to fail together... not saying it couldn't happen, just saying it could be something else.
If there not working how do you turn on your phone?
When I slide the battery into the phone it automatically boots up as if I pushed in the power button.. it never used to do that before.
And also right after it powers up it sends me straight to slide to shut down which kind of makes me believe I may have the power button stuck on or something? I'm going to try to flash the stock rom and see what happens. I'll keep you all posted. Thanks!
Dude!! Proximity Screen Off (look in Abdroid Themes and Apps sub-forum) could fix you up in combination with button savior !
It has an option to use the prox sensor to put your phone to sleep and to wake it. The downside is it will drain your battery faster than normal because the prox sensor is in use when the screen's off. But it could keep your phone useable til you can get your buttons fixed (probly just your power button is malfunctioning it sounds like to me)

Thanks a ton Huggs. I'll definitely look into it, as the main reason I love this phone is for Android roms!
So far i've had good luck with this Winmo 6.5 app. I had to revert to the base/stock Tmo rom and it works okay.
Shake and Wake
http://www.xda-developers.com/windows-mobile/shakenwake-mod-for-hd2/
I'm using Button Savior, which works great. However the only way to wake the phone from sleep is to plug it in. My new method is to call myself with Skype which also works ok but I want something better. I was thinking of something like shake to unlock. My volume buttons also don't work so I can't use apps that wake the phone with those. I'm talking about Android BTW.
Bump, hopeless but still
I've got a note 3 sm-n9005 NOT rooted and my phone keeps unlocking itself in my pocket. I *think* what's happening is that my menu button is being pressed accidentally against my leg or the pocket (depending on which way it's in the pocket) and it's waking it up. I'd prefer not to root, but I was wondering if there was anyone here who had the same issue and / or know of anything i should look for/check on to make sure i didn't set something else that might be doing this or ways that i might be able to prevent this from happening. it's actually a pretty severe battery drain, and also i end up going into programs, dialing numbers, entering text... how do i solve this?
P.S. I had an original note (sgh-i717) and it had capacitive buttons on the face which were completely inactive unless i woke the phone by pressing the power button on the side. this configuration not only worked BEAUTIFULLY but the interface was much more usable and less likely to break. I really wish they'd do away with the physical menu button. it sucks. - and also, where'd the search button go? it was super useful for activating google now and i configured long-press to launch the camera which was super useful.
while i'm on the topic, anyone who can tell me how to remove svoice and have google now wake up the phone with either ok google or high galaxy without rooting / switching roms would have my high praise. I really don't like svoice, never have. google now is *much* better.
Hey guys! I know I'm late to the party, but I just got a used S8 and love it so far! One of my only gripes is that I can't seem to find a way to switch it to completely silent with the volume rocker alone. On my previous phones it was easy: Keep Volume Down pressed and it goes to vibrate only, and press one more time to go switch off vibration as well. Easy peasy.
For some reason my Samsung doesn't let me to that. I know there are sound modes and do not disturb in the quick settings, and I'm sure you can hack something together with tasker, but as comfortable and practical Samsung's UI is nowadays, I'm just wondering why they didn't include this little handy feature from the start?
Do you have an idea how I can get this feature on my S8 as well?
I have the Exynos version, if that may help, and I'm on the latest Software available. I don't know what One UI holds in the cards regarding this topic. I hope it will be sorted out by then, but I haven't got the update notification yet.
Thanks in advance! Have a good day XDA!
