Hi there
Am I missing something or is there no way to turn off the vibrations when using the on screen buttons? I'm sure on most phones it's under the sound menu....
You weren't wrong; it is in Sounds. Look for the "Vibrate on tap" option in the Other Sounds submenu.

Got it, thanks. I don't really understand why the vibrate on touch option is under "Sounds", let alone hidden away in "Other Sounds" !
I have every setting I can find set to not vibrate and yet it still does. Is there truly no way to make it stop? I would like to find the software equivalent of "snip the wire to the haptic vibrator". Stupid waste of energy.

When is it still vibrating? 3rd party keyboards are common sources of this, they usually default to enabled.

Every time I touch the button. I don't use the fingerprint scanner and use the "one button nav" feature, and that setting is set to not vibrate also. Every time I touch it - lock, unlock, swipe left, right - it vibrates.

I kind of hate that this is my first post - A little pedestrian - I've been a longtime lurker and thanks to a lot of this forum, I made the jump yesterday to a rooted MyTouch 3G with Cyanogen's latest. I'm pleased.
Coming from a BlackBerry, I've been spoiled by the easy-switch between "profiles", specifically the ability to set the device to only ring for calls and not for SMS or other notifications.
I'm finding a one-touch solution difficult to come by - And I've already tried "Profiles", "Auto Ring", "Toggle Settings" and "Ring Toggle" - Each of them is either a multi-step process to get to "just ring for calls" or won't turn off SMS vibration, a common issue?
Anyway, great community here and I hope to be a small part. If anyone knows a simple, reliable way to set my phone to just ring (for nighttime important calls) and silent everything else (except alarms) - Please let me know!
Thanks!

Um have you tried going into settings, sound/display -> ringer volume? You can check a box and mute your notification sounds. Personally, I find this really easy already but if you must have that one-touch then.. I don't know

It isn't a deal-breaker or anything, but even with a shortcut to "Sound & display", it's a few extra swipes and pokes
I was hoping there was a shortcut directly to that screen or just a simple on-screen button that could turn everything but alarms and calls off.
Thanks

Yes sir! That's what we want - But how do we get that screen as a shortcut or widget on our home-screen?

i think that if it were developed it would need to also toggle the "vibrate on" selection within each notification setting for the various apps that utilize notifications. like gmail app, email app, exchange app, messaging apps, sms/mms etc. it is currently an android weakness compared to winblow and dingleberry but the other strengths of the os outweigh this and a few other features' immaturity. try the market...
well as of right now I can offer you one thing that requires 3 clicks lol
use a shortcut widget! But that is almost as long as doing it normally... lol
although there may be a way using better cut (trying to figure that out)
yeahhh I don't know what else you can do ;p
I give up looking for it. I tried using better cut / any cut and tried the "make your own shortcut"
Apparently there is an intent to adjust the volume but.. I don't know what to put in the "data" field. Searched around and not many people know how to use this feature either haha

...point about "vibrate on" is that you'd need a shortcut (as you say) for each app if, like me, you activate "vibrate on" as part of the notification profile for each of the app examples i listed above. in other words, simply silencing notifications volume from settings/ringer_volume/use_incoming_call_volume_for_notifications has no effect on the "vibrate on/off" selection profile for the individual apps.
It seems like the whole "SMS vibrations are different" deal is what really makes this a difficult implementation - Every application I've tried has difficulty specifically with silencing SMS vibrations that are turned on - Otherwise, it's totally possible - Very, very strange that this is still an issue...

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?
Open Keyboard--->long press on ?123 button--->Android keyboard settings--->click off vibrate on keypress

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.

Go to settings - go the sound and display - scroll down to audible touch tones and uncheck that

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?
Does anyone know how to disable thr vibrate when clicking the physical keys on the bottom of the phone (the menu, home, back, and search buttons)? Or even better just make it so that its not even as strong...
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA App
I second this. My vibrate on my Droid 2 doesn't work properly, so I just want to turn it off altogether.
Isn't that the "haptic feedback" option in your settings? Sorry, X user here.

Tried that it doesnt really change anything other than making the lock screen sliders vibration a little less.
Could some wonderful dev create such a thing?
I am very much used to using android and the feature I love is the force feedback when i type and without it I make a lot of mistakes, normally I turn off auto correct of my devices too.
I am well aware of the clicky sound, I absolutely hate it and always turn if off, no need to annoy everyone around me with it aswell!
I don't think the Touchpad has a motor in it so that it can vibrate.

It does...it is turned on in Sounds&Ringtones.
If you want verification it works go to Info -> Diagnostics -> Vibration and you can test it.
I have not looked at how it is hooked yet, so I have no idea how difficult haptic feedback would be. I am with you though Bouncer5, I do miss it.

Glad I'm not alone, I keep being told to use that pain in the ass clicking noise
I dont know if it works on the Touchpad, but the Advanced System Prefs patch In Preware adds a haptic feedback option on my Pre 2
Hello.
We have the function "Do Not Disturb", that silent phone calls. This function don't disable notifications sounds or camera shutter, like mutting the phone.
Is there a way to mute ALL sounds, including notifications and other sounds, in a programmable way like "do not disturb"?
I tried some apps like "Automate It" and "Droid Automation", but they don't work as expected.
Thanks in advice.
As you may have noticed, pressing the volume - key only carries you to vibration mode. To enable the mute, you have to open the quick settings pane and click on the speaker icon. It will alternate between sound, vibration and mute. The only volume it doesn't mute is the alarm sound, but it is understandable.

Yeah, I know that, but I wanna a way to do this in a programmable way, like we can do with "do not disturb". This function is activated in a configurable hour and duration, but it don't disable notification sounds!

The only thing you can do is to mute the phone during a certain time. I don't know if in Do not disturb settings you can silence notifications, maybe in the Allow exceptions menu. But I'm not sure, I've never used that feature

I don't know any way to do that, hopefully with Android O update they improve Do not disturb
My phone has no camera shutter sound when it's on vibrate mode and silent mode. No notification sound unless I enable the sound mode.
