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.

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.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
there might be a root app on the market to edit the ms of vibrations for certain actions like screen selecting, typing, ect...
Hey all.
I just got a Galaxy S. the soft keys do not function although i know they're active. I mean they light up and give the haptic feedback too but don't execute.
Is there any app to simulate the menu and back buttons that could reside in notification drawer or launched within an app with double tap of the home button? (like power strip or quickdesk)?
if there's a programmer out there, a lot of people are facing similar issues so please develop something.
Mine is 4 month old and just stoped working this morning.its really hard to use!!
Try going on stock firmware and do a touchkey firmware update through sgs tools.
I'll try to be as thorough as I can describing my problem in hopes that some of the smarter people here can help me find some kind of solution or workaround:
I've recently gotten a used Desire Z. The few obvious things when I first got it were:
-Phone had obviously been opened at some point, and not put back together all that well.
-From certain hints I assume the touch screen has been replaced.
-It seemed to have a completely stock (stock HTC, that is) bootloader and ROM, Gingerbread.
-The screen response was mirrored in portrait (left touch gave response to the right). A Hard Reset fixed this.
-The capacitive buttons did not respond. No vibration either.
-The optical trackpad responded normally.
In an attempt to fix things, I went through downgrading and permarooting, then installed Gen.Y VisionX B4. No problems, everything went fine and according to the guides. I performed a full wipe before installing.
The ROM runs quite smoothly on my DZ.
However, I still don't have working capacative buttons. After remapping the trackpad-click to "Back" (just to be able to use it at all), I've tried to figure out how to get them working again.
I've seen mention of a fix in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=847824 , but the file is no longer available on multiupload.
I've tried installing Enhanced_Keymaps_r3-Andromadus_Audacity.zip, which did not make the buttons work.
I've tried changing build.prop to show the Nexus-like software keys on the bottom of the screen (qemu.hw.mainkeys=0) but this didn't produce any effect at all (is this because of htc sense?).
In other words, I have a Desire Z that is hampered by the capacitive buttons not working, and no real idea how to fix it.
I've opened the screen portion of the phone and checked the cable connections, but they all seem fine.
I am at a loss.
Hopefully, someone here will laugh at my n00bness and point me to a simple solution.
Anyone? Please?
it is very possible it is hardware, if the digitizer is new and working all besides the soft keys then my best guess is the ribbion or the keypad is bad, if your familiar opening it up, as it appears you are its a simple fix and cost about 15$ on ebay or amazon.
it is possible the main flex is bad, but my bet is the keypad

Thanks guys, that's the kind of info I was hoping for.
What feels strange is that the entire touchscreen is working otherwise (to the point where touching the soft buttons will activate the function directly above it on the screen) and if the flex for the buttons where shot, I can't understand why the optical trackpad is working, as it is on the same flex...
But I guess it's possible to keep guessing forever.
Does anyone know why the on-screen softkeys that come with ICS won't work? Does sense override that?
Okay, so I've successfully managed to disable my capacitive buttons on my Note 2, using this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34247225) tutorial right here. No problems there, but it seems that they are not completely disabled.
After I disabled the capacitive buttons, I have noticed that the area where the capacitive buttons are still function! Let me explain. The capacitive buttons does not do anything, but seems to have a functional capacitivity (correct word?). Example: When I'm watching a video on the youtube app and I touch the disabled capacitive buttons, they seem to wake up the phone as if I was tapping on the screen. Also in certain apps, they seem to actually function as if I was touching somewhere on the screen. In the game "Nemo's Reef" (don't ask), when I'm touching the disabled capacitive buttons it takes me to the menu in the game and does several other things like clicking in the menu, going back, moving the screen etc.
It's not a big problem, but it is annoying and do show that the capacitive buttons are not completely disabled - as promised in the tutorial. The capacitive buttons are disabled, but the capacitive area is still functional, and (in some apps) seem to act as if I were tapping certain areas on the screen.
My question: Is there a way to completely disable the capacitive area where the capacitive buttons are?
I hope this was interesting, and it would be a pleasure if somebody could look into this and/or give me an answer.
As the title says, HTC 10 with the latest official updates. The capacitive buttons are often unresponsive. They also often give phantom touches. As they control the back button or the multitask button, this is a problem and often leads to back presses when I don't want it, or it will not go back.
I've already set the pointer speed to the lowest which should reduce sensitivity. It isn't as bad as it was but it still is pretty bad.
Any fixes? I've been looking at installing a 3rd party ROM like LineageOS hoping that it might fix the capacitive button problem.
