I don't know about you, but I find the EVO's haptic feedback "buzziness" annoying. I prefer a distinctive "click" to a "buzz" when pressing keys.
I see that in settings using cm6, you can adjust haptic feedback. Does anyone know the correct combination to get a distinctive click? Thanks.
Sorry for the bump, but since it seems impossible to find something that can adjust the haptic feedback without rooting your phone.
I discovered that Better Keyboard has its own settings, where you can adjust the haptic feedback when pressing keys on the keyboard, so you will hear a distinctive click.
I myself have a HTC Desire HD, and as you say, all the vibrations are BUUZZZZ, not simple responses. I am still looking for a way to get "clicks" when pressing the Home, Menu, Back and Search buttons.

there might be a root app on the market to edit the ms of vibrations for certain actions like screen selecting, typing, ect...

1. Is there any way to key lock the unit without pushing the power button and picking it
2.there any way to change the brightness of the screen? only option i seen was setting the backlight timer
oh and one more thing does anyone elses space and power key feel a little flaky?
I wouldn't worry too much about the keys...
I will list the keys which at random times feel flaky/have felt flaky to me
Space
Power
Fn
the i key
etc..
I think it'll be ok.
Check out the FAQ over at Hofo. They list some good key shortcuts. Here is teh most recent version.
I've searched the internet, and my own phone so I'm guessing the answer is no, but does anyone know if it's possible to get haptic feedback on the cap buttons?
i think that might be device specific. on my htc trophy, the capactive buttons (back, start, search) all provide haptic feedback. the soft keyboard itself doesn't, but those three capactive buttons do. so if you're saying that you're not getting them on your LG Quantum, i would say that LG themselves haven't put it in.
I got a quantum from AT&T and I'm pretty sure it wasn't included by LG as I've looked into this myself.
The "click" that follows each volume pressing drives my wife crazy, especially at night. Of coarse there is an option to get rid of the woman, but before taking such drastic measure, maybe the experienced folks here have an alternate idea??
The click should only happen when changing ringer volume, and i don't see why you would need to change it that much...
imo, it would be easier just to use the silent/vibrate/volume widget, since ringer volume is usually none or max...

Thank you for your reply.
Well, basically you are right. However, in order to avoid the difficulty to press the power button (awfully located) , I am using the "Fix Broken Power Button" app. That requires the use of the volume keys as a substitute to the power switch. Now, each "waking up" the DHD is accompanied with a loud "click", the one whicj I am trying to eliminate.
Thank you for your attention.
Maybe much better to change your wife? )))

Try a different app, there shouldn't be a sound when unlocking to the lock screen instead of skipping it
CM7 has options to unlock to the lock screen or skip it, and skipping it makes a sound
I'd like to make the capacitive button vibrate on touch. I'm rooted and searched around the key config files but could not find anything obvious...
Any ideas?
Thanks FredT
Try setting> sound> Haptic feedback

Thanks aznmode... I should have been more clear... all the soft buttons vibrate as I do infact have haptic feedback on... but the setting does not seem to apply to the capacitive button... hence why I am looking for something under the covers to tweak for this...

I see. Any reason why you need them to vibrate? Just curious.

...no really critical reason, just wanted the button to vibrate so that I know I hit it in the dark when I want to turn the tab on. (I've switched the capacitive button to an on/off button).
Anybody else bugged by the fact that they put the on/off button, like, the least reachable place on the phone?
I always have to juggle the phone around in my hand to reach the button, and then I have to juggle it back to reach the unlock ring. I mean, the two things I do most, pressing the on button and then sliding the unlock ring, are placed as far apart as possible. It's oddly cumbersome for such an elegant device. It's just a matter of time until I drop the damn thing. (I guess that way HTC sells more replacement screens... )
The volume buttons are where my thumb is, but I never use them. They are mostly in the way and I press them more by accident than on purpose.
Any idea whether there's a way to switch the on and volume buttons? There's probably no mod that can currently do this, but is this technically possible?
That is where the purpose of volume button to wake comes in handy. And yes, it is possible to do that.
Naah... not with me..
Yes it was a little bit difficult... but now I've become used to it....
there's a a mod for that
volume buttons to wake up the phone
use rc 3.0 or else search its thread
ckpv5 posted a long time ago
ummm... try searching -apm+ volume to wake
Sent from my HTC One V
I am using the volume wake thingie. But it will, you know, change my volume setting if I listen to any audio. Which I do a lot.
Also, you can't lock the phone with it. Which precludes my main use of the button: unlock phone, check clock or notifications, lock phone.
Anyways, I wondered about the technical possibility of just switching the buttons.

Well, then there is public interest in finding a way to mod the keys, right?
Try a two second timer.
I have somewhat large hands, and the placement doesn't bother me. I can reach the button with my index finger and reach the ring with my thumb.
I do really miss having an external camera button.
yeah its not too much of a problem for me. i can hit the power button, and then use the unlock ring, but it requires a bit of stretching. i dont have to move the placement of the phone in my hand though.
