Haptic Feed on S4? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

For some reason I think the haptic feedback on my device is malfunctioning
I have to checked to make sure power saving mode has been disabled, checked haptic feedback settings, restored my device, done about everything
It seems to me that my haptic feedback only works occasionally and when its held at a certain angle. Even under sound<vibration intensity<haptic feedback, it doesnt work unless its held at a certain angle
Does anyone know how I can replace the motor? Or check if its off place or something

NEW BUG!

I found a new bug.
When you turn off the haptic feedback, the phone still vibrates (like while answering or rejecting a call). However, when you activate the haptic feedback and adjust the intensity of vibration to 0) then even if you uncheck the haptic feedback, the settings works!!!
This means that the vibration intensity which is the sub function of haptic feedback overrides the haptic feedback whether it is switched on or off, What a joke !!!
I came across this while trying to turn off the vibration while answering and rejecting a call. I saw that haptic feedback is turned off and still the phone was vibrating, so i activated the haptic feedback and so the vibration intensity also got activated, then i slide it to 0 and then i disabled the haptic feedback and lo! the phone stopped vibrating.
Maybe you should write which firmware version you are using since on XWKF3 its ok for me.
works fine on my rom...
Isn't that supposed to be deactivated from call settings ? I think it's got nothing to do with haptic feedback settings.

On KH3 (2.3.4), it's under settings > call > call alerts > outgoing call vibration.
Unless I misunderstood what you were trying to do.
Haptic feedback setting under settings > sound is mostly for the menu & back keys.
Sounds like user error and stop the !!!!!!! Please
What was wrong with your other thread.
Most of the time the problem exists between keyboard and chair..
Here it exists between touch screen and back of users head.
Seeing as its not a new bug, will you re-title the thread?

Computer user, not terminal
Topic should be "USER ERROR."
Dont know what shud be the title , but it has solved a big problem i was facing. After sending bulk sms's, i get bulk notifications from my service provider (airtel) in the form of flash messages indicating me my balance and each time the phone used to vibrate and it was very annoying. I had tried all the settings and nothing worked, but setting haptic feedback ON and then decreasing its intensity to zero has solved the problem. so i also feel that thr is some bug here may be in some ROMs.

After restore - No more haptic feedback

Hi forum,
So I recently restored my note, and something felt off. It turns out that haptic feedback is not working. I have seen people saying how power-saving mode is what causes this, but I have it turned off. There is no haptic feedback on the soft keys, while holding down the home button, or while typing on the keyboard(when the vibration feature is turned on). All help is greatly appreciated!
tell us more!
vibration works?

Touch key vibration

I could have sworn I was getting haptic feedback on the touch keys when I first had this phone. Now I don't. Anyone know where the setting is for this?
Searching settings didn't help. I guess I can learn to live without the feature, but I liked it on my S6.
Edit: Found it. It's in the sound settings, and it was on but not vibrating. Toggling it back and forth fixed it, but I'm concerned that this is the second setting that has turned itself off without my permission (AOD did this, too).

How to enable haptic vibrate again ?

I was playing around with my wife's G6 tonight and I noticed every time I made a touch or anything in the phone there was no haptic vibrate going on. But before her phone always had a very nice haptic feedback on it.
I checked all settings like sound had vibrate to tap on I went to other settings with haptic feedback and they looked to all be checked and enabled.
So why isn't her phone vibrating ?
No one has an idea what's up ?
I went through all Settings options, turned off and back on Vibrate to tap. Still doesn't work.

It could be that the vibration motor is dead or damaged...

Haptic actuators don't use motors.
Make sure your battery saving is turn off, turning on battery saving will disable haptic feedback.

Navbar Gesture Haptic Feedback

Hey guys. So about a week ago, I received the latest update from att (ASGK) and it came with haptic feedback for navbar gestures. They also updated goodlocks task manager with gesture haptic feedback as well. However, it has not worked on my phone since the day I recieved the update. Now its not an issue that will bring about the end of the world, but if anyone has some ideas of a fix for this, I would greatly appreciate it.... Haptic feedback is a small... but comforting feature to have lol.
Maybe try going into settings, sounds and vibrations, system sounds and vibrations, make sure touch vibration at the bottom is toggled on. Then back out one screen to the vibration intensity and adjust the touch interaction to your liking.
