idk what happened, i installed a notification bar theme, and suddenly haptic feedback on stock messenger app is WAY low. in fact, ANYTHING i type, the haptic feedback is way low. vibration strength is up all the way, also in nottach xposed its up all the way, its just when i type its almost NOT THERE AT ALL.
any thoughts or hacks? i remember with the atrix i could crank it way up; i like strong haptic feedback dammit.

I didn't use my phone for long before updating to N910W8VLU1ANJ3 from whatever was stock, but I noticed recently that the vibration and haptic feedback intensity is much less than I noticed out of the box. I remember remarking that the vibration and haptic intensities (turned up all the way to max in the settings) was actually far too strong. I'm not sure at what point things changed, I hardly have any apps installed, power savings are all turned off, but now with the settings maxed I find the vibration weak at best. Has anyone else experienced this? Should I try a factory reset? I'm thinking I should root and get going on some custom ROM's, but I haven't been too impressed yet with what's available for the non-US Snapdragon Note 4. Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Is it possible to change the general Vibration intensity?
I'm not talking about the keyboard key vibration duration, I talk about the general strenght of the vibration motor wich is way to high with this device!
Even if I disable all vibration settings within an app, and just use a short pattern in lightflow, this phone is waking up the hole house if it lays on a desk.
Is there any custom Kernel or a root method, with a way to change the intensity like it is known from Samsung, CyanogenMod, LG or all the others? This little simple slider under Sounds wich let you set a percentage value for the intensity.
I love this phone, but this drives me crazy...
This was discussed quite a while back and I never saw any solution to it.
Is there any way to tune the vibration (eg. notification, touch, global vibrations separately)?
Previously I've used Xposed modules, but Xposed is not available on Android N afaik.
I'm using EX kernel, and there are two settings for vibration in the EX kernel manager app, but the only that works is the first option "Vibration" which is the global setting.
The second "Notification vibration" slider doesn't have any effect whatsoever.
Also, I'm using Swiftkey as my keyboard, and the lowest setting for key press vibration is still too high, 1 or 20, there is literally no difference.
The only way I see it is to tweak the global vibration down, and then raise the notification/call vibration intensity.
I'm on Android N stock, rooted, EX kernel.
I have the same issue. I hate the vibration so much that I turned it off completely for all notifications. Anyway to tune the vibration to the effect that it's closer to the vibration of the Samsung Galaxy Note 7. I'm looking for a softer vibration as opposed to the rattling strong vibration the Nexus 6P currently has.

I hate that I almost can't feel the vibration while the phone is in my pocket, and also hate when typing on the keyboard instead of getting nice haptic feedback, there is just an annoying sound.
That's why I'm looking to tweak it, it's really badly calibrated, at least in my case.

I am starting to think that maybe they just put a cheap vibration motor in the Nexus 6p.
It's really pissing me off now, the weak vibration when you press the back, home or recents button, it makes the phone feel so cheap.
Is there a mod to increase speed and decrease time etc ?
BrokenROM and some others have an option built in to increase vibration.
Not by much, but the little bit helps.
It's still pretty weak compared to my old Samsung Galaxy phones with their custom kernels.
AOSP/CM Kernel development for this phone has been mostly nonexistent, so nobody is competing/learning against/with each other to come up with cool kernel features.
Somewhere deep in the preferences should be a vibration intensity adjustment. This phone has a little spinning vibration motor so all you can do is find a speed that works best. The stuttering buzz during boot is top speed. I find that 68% speed in CM13 is best for me.
I did notice it was a little better in Cyanogenmod 13 so that's what got me wondering, I'm on stock rom with root as I missed all the quirky gestures.
The touch screen vibration drives me crazy on this phone. Every phone I've ever had I've been able to adjust the touch vibration. Even on the Gboard keyboard if u set the vibration to the lowest setting (1ms), it doesn't change the intensity. I know I could just turn it off, but I like to have just a slight vibration when I'm typing. I'm rooted with Magisk and Xposed. Does anyone know of any apps or modules that could fix this problem?

Google needs to add this to the sound & notification category. Samsung had vibration sensitivity and I would set it to a very mild vibrate, which was good, but the default one is too strong. Most keyboards even if you set the vibration intensity, nothing changes, still the same.
I tested the Gboard settings again just to verify. It actually does change the intensity. The problem is, the lowest value is not low enough. There's gotta be a way to lower this value.
Can vibration intensity be fixed with a software update? Isn't it more the hardware?

Yes, that is what I wanted to say: Even changing intensity to lowest, still it feels like a default setting. My Note 5 and Galaxy S8 were good, I could set it way lower and barely feel it.
