is there an app or hack that makes the phone vibrate on touch? i want some sort of indication that i have tapped the phone and i dont like the audible selection noise.
edit: im not really sure why i posted it in this section. i thought i was in the Q&A section but clearly not lol. if it needs to be in can be moved.
second that!
Yeah! that would be SOOOOO COOL!
Wrong Forum
Pretty sure this doesn't belong in the theme forum but there is an option for the android keyboard to cause the phone to vibrate on key press.
Menu>Settings>Locale&Text>Android Keyboard>Vibrate on Keypress
Although I only think this works for using the virtual keyboard doing text entry...

no it doesnt belong in this thread i posted it her by accident which is why i requested it to be moved if needed, nd yes that only works for the virtual keyboard.
Ive been looking forever for this too. I know its called "haptic" notifications. The sprint instinct utilizes this feature. I will follow this thread wherever it ends up!

ah i see...well if the virtual keyboard can vibrate shouldnt every 'tap' be able to cause a vibration
If you want your phone to vibrate on touch, go to settings> accessibility> and select kickback

No that's a feature of 1.6
Welcome everyone! I will make simple & clear.
All you need to do is you need to press home button and power button at the same time. Wasn't that simple? Hope you enjoy!

Neat!!! I looked over the internet and found a lot of button combination like home+back+volume up buttons but none of them worked. Thanks! (deletes screen shot app)
Question: why is it that every time I take screenshot of a video, nothing appears?
I have no idea, maybe you can't do it while watching a video.

Settings > Language and keyboards, enable whichever ones you want. Then when you're typing somewhere hit "select input method" in your notification bar to choose between the keyboards you enabled.

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.
SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

Go HERE i fixed the boot issue. I was way too tired last night xD missed something really simple lol
If you have dirty hands or you just can not touch your phone just hover or swipe your hand above the phone sensor. And the thing will get running for you. Please keep in mind that I am still improving it. So please report every bug you find. Contact me on [email protected]. Hope you will like it.
Thank you.

Downloaded.
It's some pretty cool business.
I can't get the swipe to open to the SMS to work though; most other functions seem functional.
Downloading now and will report any bugs I find, thanks.
Hi works really well to turn on/off screen,but when you have it enabled for WiFi also it gets a bit confusing.when you swipe to unlock screen great,hold hand for 2 seconds great WiFi comes on but when you want to just turn off WiFi it turns off screen no matter and you need to swipe screen back on and turn off WiFi manually as it always turns off screen before you turn off wifi,not a complaint just an ob but a really great app
many thanks am using it to turn my screen on and off.
many thanks.

Maybe an issue? When disabling the game mode, the screen turns off (Turn off/on the screen by motion is enabled).

This is behavior needed to fully active the game mode. I am actually trying to get it working without it.
New update information
Hey guys I actually fixed a lot of stuff I did a lot of changes but some things are still delaying me from being able to release the new update.
Actually new update may be possible to be seen by the end of this week.
As long as I am working on it alone it is really hard for me and I am giving it, all the free time I have I spend a lot of nights on it.
So if you guys would be that kind please consider some small donation. I want to buy S4 to see how the things are going on it. Or an HTC One so I can test the app on powerful device and improve it more and faster. Or just buy me a coffee or a donut. Many thanks, many thanks.
I would really appreciate it and I'll give you credits in the OP
Note: If anyone made a donation, PM me. Thanks.
Tried this and its a great little feature, not sure how useful it is yet but the idea of it is great! Well done
