Vanilla Lockscreen Mod help...

Hey devs,
I need to ask if anyone knows how to change the vanilla lockscreen softkey functions. Specifically, I'd like to change the volume swipe to alternate between normal (volume on) and vibrate (vibrate on, volume off). I don't prefer silent because I still want to "feel" when I get messages and such when I'm at work.
Thanks

You'll have to mod the Lockscreen.java code in AOSP in the framework base... which means you'll need to check out AOSP and do the compile of AOSP yourself.

All you have to do is go into Settings>Sound and enable Vibrate always. Then, when you swipe the jog tab is goes from normal>vibrate>back to normal.
or you could enable vibrate in silent only. either way, you dont have to mess with the fun task of trying to compile from source.

4.2.2 lockscreen - vibrate on touch option gone?

I have a pattern lockscreen, and there used to be an option called vibrate on touch so the phone vibrates on each dot of the pattern.
after the update my XZ still vibrates fine, but my wife's XZ doesn't vibrate on the lockscreen when drawing the unlock pattern anymore and I can;t find the option to turn it back on.
anyone able to help?
thanks!

The option is under Settings -> Sound.

Hello
It is not this Option.
We mean only the Vibrate setting in the Lookscreen

Perhaps your wife has broken her vibrator in some way? The phone is waterproof... Jokes aside, I found the setting on mine (CyanogenMod 10.1, 4.2.2 as well) under Settings > Lock screen > Screen security > Additional options... but it is greyed out!? #noidea

I checked and no other option to set vibration except for the one I said above. I also tried setting a pattern unlock and there is vibration on each dot of the pattern. Perhaps you can just tick the option under Settings -> Sound and see if it works?

I have attached a screenshot I found which shows the setting.
It used to be under security settings prior to 4.2
the option is no longer visible after 4.2.2 update.
it seems my wife turned off that option before updating, and it kept the setting. but now it's not possible to turn back on as the setting is no longer there......

[Q] Active key to toggle sound?

I know that this is a long shot, but is there any way to assign the active key to toggle sound modes, like toggle between Normal/Vibrate? I am using Dynamic Kat, but I assume that it would apply to any Active ROM.

I too would love to be able to have the ability to toggle vibrate/sound via the active key!

I took care of it myself, with a little help from Tasker. Programmed a task to handle the toggle, exported the task as an app, and then assigned the app to the active key. I have attached the apk for anyone interested. I don't THINK you need to have tasker installed for it to work, but I haven't ever exported a task to an app before, so I can't be sure.
All the app does is toggle between regular mode and vibrate mode. It also sets the media volume on and off as well, so your phone is in complete silent mode.
If this helps you give me a thanks, or if you feel so inclined, feel free to buy me a Coke with the donate button.

Any chance you could share the tasker script/code for this?
I want to do something similar, but I want to use the active key to increase the display brightness. When I'm sleeping, I set it very low so if I look at the phone is doesn't blind me. Sometimes I forget to turn it back up when I head out, and if I then try to use the phone in normal daylight, its so dim I can't even see the screen well enough to enter my unlock code, let alone turn the brightness back up, so I want to be able to increase the brightness with a hardware button press.

Turn off Vibrate

Hopefully a quick topic, but anyone with a Nexus 6 / Lollipop figure out how to turn off notification vibration?

I think for now you have to change the the notifications setting below the volume slider to "None". I don't have my Nexus 6 yet, but I did update to Lollipop on my Nexus 5.

Which notification/s? Most if not all (that I know of) have their own setting within the app itself. This would go in the Q&A section

Some apps like "Power Toggles" will allow you to use a toggle that gives you the old Silent mode back. It looks like it is in priority mode but it's one step further. Notification light works, alarms work but nothing makes noises (all the system noises are silenced). I am using that for now.

How is there not a complete silent mode on this phone? Ridiculous, especially considering the Nexus 9 has one and it's a TABLET!!!

There is one. Press volume up/down and then tap on None at the top.

No, this turns off ALL notifications. There should be a way to still get notifications without the phone vibrating.

I still want my notifications to show up on my phone/moto 360 but the way the Nexus 6 handles the notifications makes my moto pretty much useless.

I love this phone, but this was a stupid mistake on Google's part. You should be able to disable all vibrations without impact to notifications. On top of that, you should be able to control the intensity of the vibrations. Uggg. :bad:

Agreed. For me the vibration motor on this phone is louder than the actual notification sounds, it's embarrassing. Was able to customize intensity on my Note 2. I've just been using priority mode to keep things silent during work, and the Pushbullet app to have notifications pop up on my computer. That system has been working pretty well at least.

No fix for this yet?

You can change the intensity using custom kernel like elementalX.

Yes, but I shouldn't have to run a custom kernel. This is a ridiculous oversight by Google.

I'm not exactly -against- running a custom kernel, but I'd like to modify as little as possible. At this point, I'd totally be willing to disable vibration completely rather than try and tweak it into oblivion. I'm currently on the CM12 official nightly. I was using franco kernel, and it was good, but it seems that the cm kernel is doing just fine for me right now.
If anyone knows a surefire way to break the vibration(in software) do tell!!

So I use an app called audio manager and one of the options is to make vibrations to be turned off. This has worked for me with no impact to notifications. This is a great fix for those of us who are trying to stay factory

Here is screen shot of what to do in the correct order

there is an option in the phone, and messaging app, that you can turn off vibration. go into messages.. click settings, notifications, viola.. uncheck the vibrate box.

I don't have any vibrate on any of my notifications all the apps have there own settings as to whether u want vibrate or not.

Its kinda old though:
I turn off my vibration notification by going to the app.
For me was to disable only vibration of Hangout notification.
I went :
1) slide main menu of Hangout
2) Setting
3) choose account like [email protected]
4) In HANGOUT NOTIFICAITON section, click "Hangout messages & invites"
5) uncheck vibrate to disable.
Enjoy!

but it's my facebook notifications and when I go to that app it has no selection for vibrate... I don't want to turn it to "none" on notifications I just want SILENT?

Any way to reprogram the slider without root?

Hi, like the title says. I tried Notification Slider by Seveilith, but it doesn't seem to work on the 3T. More specifically i just want completely silent on one (excluding alarms), vibrate (excluding alarms) on another, and normal ringing on the last. I don't care about priority settings or those kinds of things. But I don't really want to root (I don't miss much), since I'd lose OTA.

What all allows you to do this with root? And not needed xposed? I am rooted but do not want to install xposed

I'm rooted with exposed and tried many ways to modify this annoying slider with zero success. It's the only thing I dislike about this phone. Custom Roms will eventually fix it even if OnePlus doesn't.

Isn't that exactly what you have now? This is how mine works:
Upper: Vibrate only.
Middle: DND, alarms only.
Lower: Normal, ringtone + vibration.

Upper is not viable only. It's silent

Well you can change that pretty easily by going to the slider settings.
Settings > Alert Slider > Silent > Enable Vibration

I miss vibrate mode only too. I hope there is coming a app or xposed module.

Yes and no
Sure you can turn in vibration but everything else is silent then. Example. If I put my slider in upper I get NO notifications to my android Wear. None at all.

That's kind of strange. I feel like that's more what DND is supposed to do. I guess you could always enable the "silence phone when watch is connected"-setting in Android Wear as a workaround.

When I set the middle one, it seems like it can't turn down ring to zero, the lowest it will go is one step before. This leads me to think they don't want it to be completely silent/only vibrate. I can't take a screenshot because it keeps disappearing when I do the three finger swipe, but try it.

That's only because it defaults to changing the alarm volume in DND mode.
