the vibrate is very loud .
can I chenge it and make it more quiet?
without root the phone.
Anyone ??
you have to wait for a dev to build a kernel. i dont think not possible without root
It requires root to change vibration level. A custom kernel will also be needed unless stock kernel has the option.

The only solution without rooting is to turn it off.
You can change the vibration for your keyboard. I have mine set to be more powerful, but you can also set it to be less intense by going into your keyboard settings. (Settings < language & input < keyboard & input methods - Google Keyboard < Advanced < keypress vibration duration). This make a big difference since you most likely type all the time.
About the keyboard its fine.. Thanks.
About the general vibration - may google fix this in the 5.1 update...

hi
is there any way to disable the led of the hardware buttons. i know where the buttons are. i dont need a light to find them. and it looks ugly when they light up. after i used them i always wait to touch the screen until they are off.
I think neldar knows the most about this since he has done the backlight notifications mod. It would be super to have an option in the recovery to disable backlight in the buttons. They are annoying at night when using Screen filter to dim the screen, buttons are very bright in contrast to the screen.
Agreed. I would love to be able to switch them off.
Yes this is true and really anoying!
At night they are much to bright. Would love a "disable" option, too.
Is it maybe possible to dimm the buttons, too?? This would really be awesome
ok, i'm not the only one who wants that leds switched off. but isn't there anyone who has an idea how to do that
Anyone figured this out yet?
i found an app in the market called“ leds hack“. it supports samsung vibrant, but it dont works on my phone. isnt it the us-name for the sgs? maybe the rom is the problem. i'm on darkys 9.3
i tryed to find the script that controls the backlight. here: stackoverflow.com/questions/4152053/android-turn-off-key-lights i found this info:
A: The keyboard backlight can be controlled via /sys/class/leds/ keyboard-backlight/brightness. It appears that it's a simple on-off control (echoing '0' turns it off, echoing '1' or higher turns it on). For some reason, the default system backlight control stuff seems to set this to "83", but I don't know why. I can't seem to see any difference between 83 and any other number. The file is readable by anyone, but only writable by root, so you'll need root access to the phone to manipulate it this way.
can anyone tell me where i can find the file on my phone...
Has anyone found the answer?
This is honestly something that I would even pay for if a dev wanted to create a little app or mod that could do this quickly and easily for those that are not confident to make these changes on their own.
No one? :/

this doesnt exist on our android.
There is is /sys/devices/virtual/misc/melfas_touchkey/brightness
you can do
echo '1' > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/melfas_touchkey/brightness
to turn it on, but i have not found a way to turn it off permanently
Can some one bind this to light sensor? So that we can have it disabled during day and have it enabled at night??
how can i edit this files? i cant find an editor or something like that. i'd like to play around with this script?

I don't have the folder /leds. What version of android do you have?
I found this. As a new user, I can't send links to the forum, I paste the important part:
Samsung GT-I9000
s3c-keypad
- scancode = 26 (confirmed with keylayout/s3c-keypad.kl)
/sys/class/backlight/s5p_bl/brightness
drivers/input/keyboard/s3c-keypad.c
drivers/video/backlight/backlight.c
- brightness and actual_brightness 's get/set method. (actual_brightness is read only)
drivers/video/samsung/s3cfb_tl2796.c
- Samsung's implementation. MIN_BL = 30. Lower than this == black out.
Could it be useful?
Thanks
Hi, I have almost eveything set the way I want but my last issue is the vibration intensity is too low. In gingerbread & foyo there was an intensity slider bar under Settings/Sound but no where to be found on ICS. I even installed an app to set custom vibration patterns to vibrate longer but I can't feel it in my pocket.
Does anyone know know how to increase the intensity for calls & notifications?
Thanks!
I didn't even realize that. I came from CM7 to ICS, and CM7's haptic feedback setting were amazing. Though in ICS. The Vibration seems powerful enough for me. My issue is not having the ringer, and notification volumes seperated.

under sound/volumes you need to deselect link volumes.
not found.
I'm using Team Hacksung's ROM. I can't find the option you mentioned anywhere. I'm guessing it's not implemented yet? I'll go ask over there. Thanks.
Yeah the vibration intensity is low on ICS. But I found out the only way to get normal vibration (like in Gingerbread) for Message Notification was to use a different Message app, like "GO SMS Pro" which gives me the normal vibration when I get incoming messages. So try using "GO SMS Pro" and see if it works for you.

App to control this
Do you know if there's an app or something to control this in ICS? The default haptic feedback is much to weak for my tastes.
Semaphore kernel allows vibration intensity control in v 1.0.0, and with that you can use NStools
Sent from my CM9 ICS i897 Captivate
I checked NSTools, and it doesn't mention being able to change vibration intensity.
Is it the kernel itself that allows this to be set? If so, is it a compiled option in the kernel, or what?
I'm not sure I understand how this tool works in conjunction with this kernel to allow setting this.

Pretty sure you need a kernel that supports it

Ok, thanks a lot. Going to see what they did, and see if it can be applied to the HTC Desire Z...

but im on ICS rom now..in setting didnt find got vibrete intensive..
i try midnight kernel 1st.
Semaphore and Midnight (maybe others) have a vibration sensitivity setting.
Since you mentioned it was too strong when you type, try going into your keyboard settings (Menu - > Language & Input). I'm fairly certain that SlimICS comes with a keyboard which includes a vibration setting. It would be under advanced settings.
NB) there are old Galaxy s i9000, me too (ie my Galaxy is November 2009) have a different hardware vibration.
My PDA for example don't have the spring effect; also I have a different chipset RAM : i have 8,2GB internal memory (my co-workers have 7,9 max 8,0 gb)
So there are some little differences;
The minimum brightness of my ROM is still strong, I wanted to know if you have to change the system values to decline further
Re: [Q] How to change the default values of the brightness of the screen?
Use YAAB app from the store..

Which ROM? You might have the ultra-brightness setting ON.
Even if it shows as disabled, try enabling and disabling it again. If you see a huge difference, you've got your answer. Sometimes this option is enabled at each boot, so beware.
Re: [Q] How to change the default values of the brightness of the screen?
Hw-config from system/etc
Better to read some advanced guide cause it's a bit hard.
Tip: you can always change defaults in cyanogen settings / screen settings (can't remember the destination)if you wanna cook rom you can grab saved preference from root/data & put them in a patch.Zip file(easiest way)

Recently I converted my international HTC One into Google Play Edition (Stock ROM). Everything seems to work fine except for the "vibrate on touch" feature. Well haptic feedback does work with keyboard and capacitive buttons but not when I touch my apps.
I've tried every possible suggestion out there to make it work again with no success (Checked the sound/vibration settings, did factory reset, no power saver mode..etc.)
I don't know if it's related but also the vibration in general (e.g text notification) feels much weaker compared to HTC's stock ROM. I know it's not a hardware issue because increasing the keypress vibration duration in google keyboard settings gives satisfying results.
