I'm not sure on S5, but on my Note 3 with the stock firmware you can create a custom vibration pattern in Settings > Sound > Vibrations > Create.

Thank you. Yes I have that one. But the one I'm referring to, you have to go to settings in the messenger app and you can select ether 1 2 or 3 long vibrations or short vibrations.

For such a specific requirement, you may need a 3rd party app to do that.
On the stock app you can still create custom vibration in the device's Settings menu and then activate vibration option in the Messages app's settings.

Ok. Thank you bro

I cannot turn off haptic feedback!

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.

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?

ringtone volume?

not sure if this device specific but on my htc incredible in the options i had the ability to have set the notification volume based on the ringtone volume.
on this phone, they're 2 independent settings.
anyone know if theres a way around that?
i just looked and didnt see a way to do it... i had a droid1, dx, and d2 and where i would normally be able to change it (settings > sounds and display > phone ringtone) its just not there... there should be a checkbox to "unlink" phone ringtone and notification volume...
if its somewhere else, please inform
I downloaded an app called "Quick Settings" (really slick apps that gives you acess to a lot of settings all in one place) and it has a check box under it's volume control menu to "Use Ringer volume for Notifications".
Hope this helps!
I like that, thank you! It needs a widget, though.

i have been wondering the same thing. I had quick settings on my Incredible, don't know why i didn't think to download that.
Thanks.
I remember seeing that feature on my Eris after installing the KaosFroyo ROM. I think it's a new feature in Froyo, so we'll probably see it with our Froyo upgrade as well.

Not a widget but there is a setting to put in the (already too crowded) status bar/ pull down.

Still no vibration on sms notification (HyperDroid CM7)

I originally posted this in the HyperDroid CM7 thread but I think it might be better here.
I have little problem with my install and I'm not even sure if it's related to that rom or CM7 or me... When I put my phone on vibrate, it will only vibrate when I get a call, it won't vibrate for SMS and notifications in general.
I have set Messaging > Settings > Notification Settings > Vibrate > Always
I also set Settings > Sounds > Vibrate > Always
Still no dice. Any ideas?
the Profiles maybe?... last time I tried, I ended up getting a notification sound from SetCPU notification on Screen On/Off and it was extremely annoying lol
I'll try again and report but feel free to chime in if you have a suggestion
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note that I have played with the default profile since that post and set every app group to Vibrate 'On' but it still doesn't work.
I keep looking online but the 2 answers that seem to fix the problem don't work for me (the Messaging app settings and the Profile settings)
I also remember reading that the vibrate pattern had to be set to a particular pattern to work but I can't find that info again.
Any ideas?

Edit:
Workaround: I grabbed Sound Manager v2 from the market > Vibrate settings and it works
I have the same issue... Have you resolved it??
Cheers
It works now that I used Sound Manager from the market.

MIUI notes/tips

I don't know about anyone else, but this is my first MIUI phone.
I thought it would be useful to start a thread regarding MIUI notes/tips/etc that are specific to MIUI.
The first big one of course - how to fix push notifications:
http://www.forbes.com/sites/bensin/...ions-on-xiaomis-miui-8-for-real/#11f834174e1b
I was about to start this very thread
I found a cool feature
You can select several photos for deleting by simply gliding your fingers over the photos
Another cool feature
You can orient that device do that it's upside
The top bezel-less becomes downwards.
The phone is also programmed to rotate it to the standard orientation during a phone call because of Mic location.
One thing I quite like is how specific WIFI connects can be disabled without having to remove them.
Our work WIFI blocks certain things, so it's nice to be able to disable it but not have
to totally remove it (and then reenter all the passwords when I re-enter it).

For each WIFI connection, there is a little > to the right of it.
If you touch that you go into another menu, and one option is 'auto connect on/off'.
Turning off autoconnect helps in situations where there are multiple WIFI signals, but you only want it autoconnecting to a specific one.

2 finger swipe on notifications displays their details (or what is called Peek)

Thanks for clarifying.
What if I'm in the range of two networks that I've saved the passwords for.
Which does the mi mix connect to when I enter range?
Looks like the last one I've connected to.

That's actually a primitive way of doing it.
Samsung did it better by letting you 'peek' one-handedly with a simple swipe down of the notification.
With mi mix, I have to use two hands. I can do it with one hand but it's tough.

And just found out, we can't "swipe away" the notifications from the lockscreen directly. Need to pull down the shade and clear from there. Would this not be considered a stupid decision?!

Perhaps there's a solution if you root/install Xposed & a module is available for lockscreen options.
I'm rooted,but, haven't used Xposed in ages, considering trying it again......
On Samsung devices,(non-root) Ad Blocking apps have a persistent notification on the lockscreen that cannot be swiped away,.The only remedy for this was to turn off the ad blocking.

I followed all the steps.
I understood that there are several instances of settings and installed apps.
I went through all of them but still could not disable or uninstall pre-loaded apps like Mi Credit, Mi Cloud and all those Mi nonsense apps.

Those are uninstallable I guess (as Mi earns from these apps and not selling the phone), few rubbish were uninstalled using this method.
I should be able to disable them though
Apparently not
Some more MIUI notes:
menu + volume down = screenshot
hardware test: dial *#*#6484#*#*
More phone info: dial *#*#4636#*#*
There is a toggle to disable the navigation buttons (double tap them to re-enable)
handy if you keep accidentally hitting them.
in 'buttons' can auto disable for any particular app (games)
In accessibility there is a magnification mode - triple tap to allow/disable zooming of screen. (EDIT: it's bugged - it isn't supposed to trigger during keyboard typing,but it does, effectively making it useless)
wake with volume buttons is in lockscreen menu, not "button"
There are some apps that just won't stay uninstalled. Anyone got idea how to remove them? PPTV for example

Heads up Notifications

Hi, I'm sure a lot of us find Heads up Notifications annoying. I have disabled it on my S9 and S7 before this and it was a huge relief. However I can't seem to find any resources on how to on it on One UI 2.1 for the S20. The adb global settings code doesn't work. I'm sure there must be a way?
Thanks
Anybody?
Not possible anymore. Every time a heads up pops up I just got to the notifications settings for the app and toggle the "Show as pop-up" off. After a week off doing this for any heads-up that came up, I don't see them anymore.
Where do you find this option? I can't seem to find it. Thanks
It's in the notification setting for the each app.
Alright, managed to find it. Thanks
It looks like this is now available in the app and the adb hack isn't needed any longer. It would still be nice to apply a global default with this hack rather than changing each app individually.

I find Telegram always turns back on itself after some time. Very annoying.
There's the option to change it.
For example on the Samsung Message app:
Go to notification settings, tap in "General Notifications" (tap on the letters, donĀ“t tap the toggle switch) and then you would find the option "Show as pop-up".
You have to do it individually for each app, in FB messenger and Whatsapp is a little different, but you would find "show as pop-up" by tapping in the letters in each option in the notification settings.
Hope this help!
