Can you Disable all Vibration? - Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers

I have disabled as many vibration settings as I can but there is one in particular I cannot find the setting to disable. There is a very, very short vibration when pressing the fingerprint sensor to go back to the home screen. I didn't notice it until I installed Nova Launcher. Nova Launcher didn't have any setting to disable it so I uninstalled Nova Launcher but the vibration is still there.
Is this a configurable setting?
I just got the phone so doing a factory reset is still an open option at this point.

You can disable all vibration with the extended stock kernel on here. I believe that's the only way

This vibration is really annoying..and it also drains battery.. you get an option in gravity box , xposed module to disable this vibration..but you have to root your phone.

Better you dnt go for installing the xposed framework..although it disables the fingerprint unlock vibration..you might sometime face other problems in your phone after rooting your phone...lot of people have been complaining about this annoying vibration..hope moto would fix this issue in future updates...wait for it..that's better i think.

Rooting it's self wasn't too bad and I haven't had any problems. I enjoyed the aosp rom I was using but went back to stock for the better camera. Speaking of that rom, Fingerprint gestures work without the vibration on that rom so maybe it's just some line in build prop?

This is an option that you get after installing garvitybox in xposed modules..gravitybox have support till marshmallow and iam not sure whether it works with nougat..if you have rooted ur phone..just try this..and also try the vibrafix app in playstore..some people have been telling that this app has fixed this issue of vibration in their one plus3

You can flash custom kernel like ElementalX and disable vibration.

Root method: Kernel Auditor has a slider to adjust vibration strength. I am using the kernel Alize for Nougat.

[Q] Is it possible to disable vibration when unlocking the screen?

So I've searched through the threads and there doesn't really seem to be an answer for this other than to use something like widgetlocker, which I don't really want to do because I would like to still be able to use the music player controls from the lock screen. I'm just so annoyed by the haptic feedback every time I want to unlock the phone!
Does anyone know of any way to disable this?
btw Running Azure 1.0.1
Same here. But sometimes, if there is no answer in search means the problem can be solved easily... But I'm still finding the answer too
Go to: Menu - Settings - Security, then uncheck the "Use tactile feedback" option. Hope this is what you need.
@Rapier - yeah, I tried that but unfortunately all it does is disable all haptic feedback except for when unlocking the phone :S
Anyone have any ideas?
have been looking for this too a while ago and i have found this in the hero forums:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6521199&postcount=174
I haven't had the time back then to test it out myself so i don't know if it will work

Strange. For me it works exactly as it should. Is disabling the feedback only for the unlock pattern, on the other keyboards, dialer and so on, haptic feedback is still present.
Are you using stock or custom ROM? I recall you've said something about Azzure. Maybe this is the issue. I'm using stock ROM and have no problems disabling through the way I told you.

Ohhh ok yeah I guess that's the problem there. I'm running Azure 1.0.1 and unfortunately there does not seem to be any option on my ROM to disable the haptic feedback for the lockscreen as it uses the vanilla lockscreen, for which I believe there was no option to remove haptic feedback. But yes, I do recall being able to turn it off when I was running a stock ROM.
Well, that's a bummer, but thanks anyway!

Hey thanks! This looks like just what I need! I read through the thread and it doesn't seem like it's all too stable but I suppose it's worth giving a shot

Remove camera vibration

If anyone does not want the vibration to occur when opening the camera with the wrist twist method, I found that it can be turned off by using the Xposed mod: (you need root) install AppOpsXposed then going to App Ops in setting, go to device, and turn off vibration rights on the camera app. No more vibration! I was also looking for a way to turn off vibration when unlocking in active display (though the 4.4 update made it a lot less intense) but I haven't found a way without just turning all vibration off. I have a love hate thing with haptic feedback. Anyway, hope this helps someone.

You can probably do this without Xposed and just using App Ops (and/or App Ops X). I saw that camera had vibrate but didn't make the connection to the twist to launch gesture. I don't mind it because it tells me that it worked.

other than using the power button to turn it on, and crossing my fingers that this will get re-enabled in Android 4.5/5 around July/August, no :/
Also annoyed that the auto-brightness+ setting is now gone, but that at least was fixable through the Lux app.
Brightness button did not disappear on mine. Sprint S4
Any solution for the home button?
It's a world wide issue with all tw KitKat updates.

Couple alternatives. Wanam with Xposed could fix it. Also, a different launcher would let you set it too.

Thx bud,
I don't think that the prob is from the launcher, as it doesn't work with other launchers neither (I don't use TW, also it is working normally with s-view cover opened).
I have Wanam with xposed, but don't find any option like that... could you help me out? Thx a lot!
I found another strange issue, don't know if you have it , too. If I deactivate auto-unlock when I open s-view cover, it still unlocks when I open it... even after restart.
Edit: Found the solution for other issue: Nils Notification was set to always unlock when cover opened, nothing to do with rom... My fault

In Wanam, under System, there is a section for Long Home key behavior, can you not, Launch S Voice from there?
I use Google Now, and this is how I launch that.
As for S-view, I can't help with that, I dont have that.

Double tap to sleep?

It works fine when I use one of lg's launchers. Using nova launcher it does not work. I can force it to work, or I can use greenify to hibernate and lock screen but both methods require device admin privileges. No biggie, but then you're forced to use patter unlock, and I would venture whatever other method you use as back to the fingerprint scanner. I am using pattern. It requires I use it because I gave those two other methods to lock phone development admin privileges thus making fingerprint scanner a lot less useful. It wakes phone but I have to use pattern like I would if I rebooted. Anybody using nova having same problems or found a workaround? Bugging the hell out of me as I finally have a nice finger scanner, coming from the note4 and it was almost useless with a case on, and I love unlocking my phone as I take it out of my pocket. If others using nova are having same problem let's brainstorm and figure this out. It is nice double tapping to lock phone also.
Double tap the notification bar works anywhere.

I already covered this in another thread - it's a known issue since Android 6. In 6 there was a workaround but with 7, there has been changes and the workaround doesn't work.
I spoke with Nova and there is a root workaround for it but we don't have root yet.

I've used the G3 for quite a while... I learned how the double tap works for it quite well lol. I know where at in the notification bar you should tap for it work. Unless its dramatically different on the V20's implementation of it, it just simply does not work for me...

It's a PITA and will take some getting used to. I had the LG G3 and the OPPO Find 7 which both had dttw. But with nova you have to hit the tiny notification bar, which as someone said will take some practice. Just make sure you have it turned on in nova's settings.

waking phone not responsive

Sometimes when I pick up my phone after it's been sitting at my desk neither the double tap to wake or the power button will wake my device. Anyone else experienced this?
(I did search for this to see if it was asked already but did not find a thread)

Been having this issue since I got it. None of the updates have resolved it. 9.0.7 hasn't been as bad as 9.0.6 was, but it still happens at least once a day. Haven't updated to 9.0.10 yet. This is my only real gripe I have with this device so far.
I have mine set to tap once on screen to wake up. Sometimes I get this where I need to press power button to wake up.

I have checked with both single tap and double tap, both of them aren't perfect. Miss mostly when phone is idle for too long. Have to use power button in those cases.
I have had the same issue on both 9.0.7 and beta 1. Sometimes tapping the screen does nothing. The phone does not wake up and i have to got the power button (I have it set on single tap to wake).
I suspect it could have something to do with pocket mode.
I have the same problem. Disabling pocket mode did not resolve the problem.

That's it then. I had the same issue from the start. Even replaced my unit for it. But its basically oos killing apps in order to save battery. And it kills our beloved nova too. It was solved for me after i root my device and grant nova root permissions. If u dont wanna root try using the default launcher for few days and see if the problem still persists.
