haptic feedback / vibration help - Galaxy S III General

Sorry if this is trivial but this is my first Samsung device I was HTC exclusive for quite some time just needed a change..
Anyway here is my problem: I am not getting any vibration when it come to alerts. Text email etc. It works for incoming calls and haptic work when typing and using soft keys. So is th is just how Samsung does things or am I overlooking a setting somewhere ? Not the end of the world just trying to customize the phone a little better for me
Again sorry if it's such a trivial thing I just can't seem to change it

Can I get rid of the keyboard clicking sound on Universal?

Hi, wonder if anybody has a way to get rid of the keyboard clicking sound on the Universal?
It would be so far better when use in quiet meetings. I was looking at the sound setting but didn't find anything there. Want to check to see if there is any registry heck or other ways to fix this.
Thanks!
go to settings->sounds
disable there the checkbox for the hardware buttons
This is strange as the hardware botton box was never ticked in the first place... I tried tick and untick and softreset it but it does not seem to work. The keyboard clicking sound still there...
Any further advice please?
The keys have a mechanical click sound built in - very difficult to get rid of.
On a similar subject - anyone know how to turn off the clicks that happen when you use the start menu?
sounds and notifications - uncheck 'Events (warnings, system events) I'm not sure what all else you lose, but it turns off what you wanted.
Thank you.
It would be so nice to have a seperate volume level for sms and system sounds.
It really is bad to have them put into one volume setting.
Developers... any ideas? Calling Vijay/Buzz... and other smart PPC devs?
the clicks are mechanical , you can't get rid of them,
a trade off between membrane and swith activated keyboards,
although more noisy, the switch activated responseivness is better
cheers

Thanks all for your responses. Looks like I'll need to explore other input methods during quiet meetings...

Received call graphic

I'm really not sure what to search for. I've searched many many times trying to find out how to change the graphic when i receive call. I would much rather a full screen picture and a much larger accept or decline button similar to how the iphone operates. Is there some sort of label for changing this like how dialpads are used for changing such. Any help is appreciated.
This intrigues me. Is there really no way to change the on screen notification when you are receiving a call? The WM one is so tiny.
well, you could use Slide2Unlock2...
Is there a way to install the incoming call graphic without the slide to 2 unlock feature itself? I prefer to not have it after testing it out a few months ago.
This is the last time i'll bump it. It seems as if everyone is satisfied with the incoming call graphic. Oh well.

Vibrate Soft Keyboard Feature?

hey guys i was trying out the android sdk for the vogue and it is awesome..especially the keyboard and how it vibrates every time you press a key. i was wondering if there is a program or registry edit that can make windows keyboard do that? i currently use pcm keyboard and that would be an awesome addition to wm6.1. idk if it is possible but i would love that add-on
EDIT: i heard pcm has done that for v0.16 but it is still very unstable and the skins suck right now..unless someone can make that setting for v0.14 or a program/edit can do that i guess we might just have to wait till v0.17
try voa vibrate.exe

If this working I will be very happy. Thank you!
vibrate soft keyboard - status ?
So did it work ?????????? or did u find something else ?
I'm using one that will vibrate with every screen touch. im loving it. you can control the intensity of the vibration also.
worth giving a try!

Well, the one problem with the Vibrate option is that it may cause the White Dot Issue, which somehow gets onto the screen and stays there due to the Vibrate Mechanism..I'm not sure why, but it has happened to beware.

Ring AND vibrate on the X1

Hi Guys
Another basic question here. I can see how I can set the phone to ring, how to set it to vibrate, and how to make it be totally silent. My question is, can you make the phone ring AND vibrate for an incoming call? When I select ring in the control panel, it makes the vibrate option vanish. Please tell me this is possible!
Regards,
Andrew
In Settings/Personal/Sounds & Notifications you hit the notifications tab at the bottom.
Under 'Event', choose "Phone: Incoming call"
Under 'Type', choose "Vibrate and ring" or "Vibrate then ring"
You can also do all this in Settings/Personal/Phone.. first tab..
I reccomend exploring your phone before asking something like this. I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but you could have found this extreamly easily just by looking at all the options you can choose from in the settings window/list.
Thank you very much v1rone. Don't worry, no offense taken.
I have been looking for this feature for a while now and didn't post as a first resort. This phone is just so different from my last one (SE P990) that it's taking me a while to get to grips with it. I had seen that screen before, but for some reason, I didn't notice that middle drop down and saw vibrate as a tick box for all the other things in the top drop down so I assumed it wasn't possible for phone calls.
Anyway, it's all sorted now, thank you very much for your guidance.
BTW, when clicking on the "notifications" tab at the bottom, it takes ages for the tab to come up. This has only been since I upgraded to the new R2 firmware. On the older R1 firmware, it still took a while, but not nearly as long as it does now. Just thought I'd mention it.
Yeah, mine does the same thing when trying to get into that tab. Not sure what the deal is there.
I haven't flashed any of the new R2 roms yet. It's possible that the R2 versions have more files in the windows folder, causing this application to take longer when seeking out all the settings it needs to display it's window. Not sure..
I have absolutely zero evidence to backup this statement seeing that I haven't peeked into the updated rom files yet, but who knows
Sounds plausible
on another note, any way to make the X1i ring and vibrate in a sane manner . . . the vibration is sort of insane lol
anyone know of any app/program to control this?
thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Try VAlert, cab should be somewhere on these forums.

Ringer-off switch doesn't vibrate

When switching the phone from ring to vibrate using the manual switch on top of the phone, isn't there supposed to be a short vibration as feedback to let you know the phone is silenced? When I switch from ring to vibrate, I get no vibration feedback, but everything else works correctly (meaning that the ringer and sounds really are silenced and switched to vibrate-only mode).
None of the Treos I've had in the past have had this problem of the "vanishing feedback" when switching to vibrate.
Does anyone know if there is a setting or a registry hack to re-enable this feature?
It is very convenient to be able to reach in my pocket and switch the phone to vibrate and to receive a short vibration to let me know I got the switch in the right position. Thanks in advance for your help!
You should try getting into Start menu >Settings>Sounds & notifications, and then notifications !
There should be a check box where you select to enable or disable the feature
Fyi
I have a similar issue...
I'm using 6.5 23549 RealVGA Updated from imzkng in ppcGeeks with the 'no windows/ok/X button' tweak and sometimes in start menu when a push 'lock' (or anything in the bottom bar) the Treo give-me a vibrate-feedback, ok I like it! but 95% of the time it just does nothing...
I bought a LG Cookie for my girlfriend and I LOVED the feedback and would like to put in my Treo... does anyone know how?
well, I found a program that rumble the way I want...
TouchResponse
U can config it to rumble when U touch and when your finger leave the screen... and other things...
well, i have the same problem with my custom wm 6.5 rom... as for the screen, touch response is a great addition (then i know when stuff freezes too )
