No keyboard vibrate feedback. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Have a new replacement EVO. The hardware version is 0004 with hboot 2.02 .
The keyboard will not give vibration feedback. I have flashed it numerous times without success. Is this a hardware part that is separate to vibration for notifications? Could this be a software issue brought by rooting?

Might be a dumb question, but have you enabled vibration feedback in the keyboard settings?
Does the phone vibrate at all? (like when moving an icon on the screen)

I knew I should have included that in my post. Yes and yes.
I also just downloaded a vibrating app also to test. They work fine. I wonder if there is a hardware difference that is effected by the software.

Weak vibrate from chompsms

I recently bought the galaxy s from bell and replaced the default messaging app with chompsms. It works fine but I've run into a weird problem, the vibrate from chomp is a lot weaker than any other notification on my system. Is this a problem anyone else is getting? And is there any way to fix it. I've tried looking around and haven't come up with any answers so any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Well I figured it out by myself. I had to enable haptic feedback and then increase the vibration intensity and disable the haptic feedback (I don't use it).

[Q] Haptic Feedback Settings

I can't seem to get my vibration and haptic feedback to work. Its intermittent and goes in and out. Tried different ROMs and still the same. Hardware issue? On my sixth Inc... dont want another.

I seem to notice it goes out when typing on the keyboard after about sixteen keys more or less. Then comes back randomly. Vibration app i just downloaded works but only if before it goes out.

[Q] Problem with my microphone

Ever since i flash the newest midNIGHT rom the microphone hasn't been working. Not sure if its hardware related or software.. Anyone else experiencing this?
I think you have to change the mic settings in Voodoo back to original.

+1 to this. Go into voodoo control and set mic to origonal. It seems some peoples phones don't like the new voodoo settings for mic. I've seen multiple people with the same issue and its usually fixed by changing that setting

Keyboard open turns off phone screen

When i open my keyboard it turns off my screen.
This has been like this for a month or longer. It is nor ROM related or kernel related as I've flashed a ton if roms and kennels in the last month. Hardware is fine as the keyboard lights up and keys work, screen works gone worth keyboard closed... It's like 'software' doesn't know keyboard is open..... Well that's nor true because it lights up....
Any ideas?

Mine turns off, but you have some deep sleep issues affecting your phone not wanting to gain enuff processor speed to get out of deep sleep? Its a possibility

Sounds like a bad video ribbon cable.

Could be your phone has fleas from flashing all those kennels.
Haha flees.... I've tried setting gov to performance then power down, nothing. I setup Tasker to post a notification when keyboard opens and it does post so the system knows the keyboard is open. I also tried using Tasker to set display on time out to 99 min.... Etc.. Still stays off. Heck just opening it shuts off screen. When screen is off opening it flicks on screen.....

Hardware keys are on, but dead

Since the last couple of days, all 4 of my hardware keys are always on, but have stopped functioning. I have tried factory resets and even tried a few different Roms. No luck so far. I am using the workaround of turning on the navigation keys that adds an extra layer of keys at the bottom taking up space.
I was wondering if anyone had experienced this before and can give me suggestions.

Unfortunately I too have nothing to offer that helps.
I'm still baffled and have exhausted my all efforts (and google). P.s. I get no lights at all, however they do lit up dim in some circumstances

It is more of an inconvenience than anything at this point. I haven't tried anything from the hardware side since it can be controlled by the software setting which I have toggled numerous times.
I love this phone and it works great except for this recent problem.
There are a lot of smart folks on this forum, I hope that someone knows how to fix it.
For the time being I have soft key enabler, which has basically saved the phone

The AOKP ROM already has this feature in-built and have the flexibility to rearrange and choose actions for each of the keys. I have created 4 keys that match the hardware keys so that I don't have to learn the new default keys order.
The only caveat being that this new set of software keys take up some of the screen space.
Does bln or app called screen filter work when u disable and enable the hard buttons?
Either of you have warranty? I would flash to latest stock unroot and bring it to Tmob....
If its hardware theyll should be able to tell....
Sounds like a short in a wire or that your bottom screen is defective since its not responding...
