The phone vibrates pretty strong when you double tap to
Power to launch the camera. I don't see any option in settings to adjust vibration
Intensity. Anyone? Just wish I could turn off the vibration.
me too
I'm actually rma'ing mine because the vibrate sounds like it's rattling against something or is loose. It's very audible.

Anyone got a root solution for this? The work around is to use battery saving mode then there'll be no vibration but there must be a better way?

Is there a way I can get the phone to vibrate for a phone call but not have the buttons on bottom vibrate? I notice when I turn down the vibration intensity it also doesn't vibrate for phone calls.... That kind of sucks

I am wondering the same. Anybody know of a app or fix?
I just figured it out...leave the phone vibrate checked but uncheck the haptic feedback

Thanks for the quick fix tip
Any other way around this? I love that my soft keys vibrate (just ensures me that I actually touched it), but I need my vibrate mode to be put to the highest. I don't want my haptic feedback to be too strong, but I don't want my vibrate mode to be too low at the same time. Hmmmmm, any apps or something?
I noticed this earlier today. I was playing with the settings on my vibrant trying to optimize my battery life so I put down my haptic feedback level so when I push the soft keys the phone doesn't vibrate hard. But the next time I got a phone call the notification vibration was at the same level as the haptic feedback intensity and I couldn't feel it ring. Is this supposed to happen or is it a bug? Is there anyway I can leave my call vibration strong and the feedback weak?

I have also noticed this. not sure if it's normal or not however.
I believe this is a feature. I set it to maximum and turned of haptic feedback all together.

for some reason, my phone no longer vibrates when I get a call when on silent mode. it used to. I do have vibrate setting turned on. any ideas?
thanks!
I thought that was the reason for silent mode.. I don't remember my phone vibrating for anything when on silent...
Just checked, and it doesn't. ? Fluke perhaps?

not sure, but I think I might have found a solution. when long-pressing the power button, if i set it to "vibrate", it will vibrate on silent. from that point forward, I can keep those settings when setting it to silent by sliding the lock screen's silent switch.
The lock screen sound mode toggle will always be sound and the last non-sound mode your phone was in when it locked.
For example, put it in vibrate and lock it. The toggle will be sound and vibrate. Put it in silent and lock it. The toggle will be sound and silent.
I hope that helps.

I seen and tried what you where saying and but it still doesn't vibrate when I switch it to sound I get the pop up that says sound on but when I switch it to vibrate it says sound off and doesn't vibrate I've looked at every single setting and can't figure out why it's not working
So using the power option is a workaround.
But using AutomateIT or Tasker you are stuck as to forcing a vibration notification? Right?
Anyone?
Can we revert to JB??
I am on the latest KK.
Hi. Most of the time my phone is next to my notebook at work and I dont pick it up unless I get a call, i'm concerned about the back buttons.
Can you use the G2 in a plat surface without problems? Can you accidentally turn it off by tapping too hard? Is changing the volume a pain? Please share your experiences.
Yes, no, no. Works perfect on flat surfaces. Especially with knock feature. Volume can easily be controlled from toggles and or slider notification from status bar. After using the phone for a while, the back buttons with slider notification(not used often) feels right and makes perfect sense.
If you're gonna change the volume by pressing the back buttons, then it is a little inconvenient. But as the previous poster said, you can can change volume in the notification area. You don't need to worry about the power button, it will not be affected.
Verizon model doesn't have volume or brightness in the notification shade. So it can be a pain changing volumes with it laying down. But how often do you adjust the volume. Find a good volume and leave it.
Using it on a desk with it laying flat is awesome. Just double tap and go. Double tap off. I always turn my screen shutoff really low, like 15s.
To turn the screen off, you have to double tap the top status bar or anywhere on the home launcher. Tapping on the keyboard or browser or any other app won't turn the screen off.
I got used to it very quickly and it feels natural to have them on the back. I find it easier to slide my finger to find the volume buttons. Camera>slide down for Vol+ and Case>slide up for Vol-.
I think LG incorporated volume buttons onscreen like in a call or watching video. The whole phone software and hardware design is well thought out and executed. I've never felt inconvenienced. It seems when I need to adjust volume, it's there.

Like the OP, my phone spends most of the day next to my keyboard on my desk. It is my MP3 player and I honestly do miss the side mounted volume rocker. I've got the G2 sitting face down half the day. The sliders don't work real great at click-up-one / click-down-one volume adjustments. Shame to hide the album art and spectrum analyzer this fabulous screen can render but such is my reality.
Even in-hand the back buttons don't work right for me. I rest the phone on my pinky and don't maintain a pinch hold of the device so using the back buttons requires a rather drastic shift in grip style. Generally, I find myself using my second hand to work the buttons.
Knock-on is wonderful. So is the QuickWindow case. Between the two, I really don't have need to use the power button much.
All that said, I wouldn't trade for an S4 or N5. The battery and screen are just too good.

I rest the phone on my pinky too but not in call.
When listening to music, I have the screen off anyway.
Volume could easily be solved by having a volume slider on the lockscreen when it's playing audio.
What about a volume lockscreen widget?

Playing music and using certain other apps gives me a volume notification in the notification shade... I mostly use the stock app though, don't recall if GPMusic triggers it. Even with Bluetooth slider . Video is swipe on side for volume and brightness. Lockscreen slider would be nice, one less step to pull shade.
in a flat service I dont know, on its fine
havent seen any microkeyboard docks if there is a market for it

Yea typically whenever there is audio, there is a slider in the notification dropdown shade.
So double tap to turn screen on > slide from top = volume slider.

Yeah, even the VZW variant has the volume slider when media app is active. Too fiddly for me. I might use a virtual control if it offered a button at either end of the slider that would allow easier granular control. A numerical display would also be welcome.

Does the window case have volume controls? It ain't that bad.
Back buttons are nice cause the buttons were hard to press with a slim case.
Granted most of these are features on stock Rom. If you flashed AOSP or CM, you'd lose those nice audio controls.

I have a problem with my unrooted Marshamallow X Force in that when I am in a call on the speakerphone/hands free the screen will go to sleep after a moment and I cannot wake it up other than by pressing the power button (No sensor detection or screen swipe). Is there any way to either disable the sleep mode during hands free calls or a way to get the screen to come back on without having to press the power button?
EDIT: OK I've found the attentive display thing but if I am looking slightly away like looking at my computer display it loses my face and sometimes I wander around during a call. I will see how it goes.
EDIT:2 Bah! It's not helping. Anyone got any ideas?
+1 It happened To me while on bluetooth headset,very annoyed.

There is no way to change this behavior that I know of. I also find it annoying.

On another hand, behavior is logical. To save battery, screen goes off. The same is with normal calls. Only problem is that attentive display/proximity sensor is not turning it on.
Try to suggest Moto on official forum or under Moto app on market to implement that.
