I feel like an idiot asking this, but is there a way to turn the vibrating off when typing with the Samsung keyboard? I type really fast and it's just annoying. It screws me up half the time because I type so fast. I had the evo 3D before this and on that there was a way to turn the vibrating off.
Thanks.

Disable hepatic feedback? This effects the entire system tho.
I personally use smart keyboard pro. It has many options, one of which is turning off the hepatic feedback on the keyboard only.

I really like the stock keyboard and its autocorrection system is really good, but I hate when it vibrates when I type.

Can a developer take the vibration code out of the samsung keyboard?
I really like the Samsung Keyboard that comes with the phone accept for the fact that the vibration can't keep up with me and it screws me up. Is there any way to disable the vibration from the keyboard?
Thanks
Go into the sound settings and turn off haptic feedback. Kills vibration for everything though.

Yeah but I still want the vibration to work, just not for that keyboard. I think it's stupid there isn't an option in the settings for the keyboard.
Install a different kb mod for the time being until a dev does it or it happens at some point. That right now would be your best bet and honestly there are great free kb apps out there that are far better then the normal stock one.
Our you can just put on thick knit gloves whenever you want to use the keyboard

In all seriousness, the stock android keyboard is better than the samsung variety. I prefer swype, but just try "keyboard" in the market and you will get a lot of options, use one with great ratings anda lot of downloads. Swiftkey was great. You have many choices... I bet "Go" or "keyboard from android 2.3"are exactly what you're looking for.

I've been using the keyboard from 2.3 and I like it but the auto corrdnt sucks. I had 2 HTC phones before this one and loved the keyboard and auto correct. I've tried go, swype and swiftkey. Swiftkey is alright but their auto correct sucks. Is there a way to get the evo 4g's keyboard?

Looking for an app that would dim and lock my phone when I put it in my pocket; blackberry style. It sounds a bit ridiculous, but having to hit the power button after every call to make sure it locks out is getting a bit tedious... Any suggestions.

There's a few... proximity sensor off is like that.. a few others too. Search proximity sensor in the market and you'll see some.

That will work! Of course if you use your phone for ANYTHING besides simply making a call it'll get old real quick. Seriously though, I found a dozen different apps that are power button replacements and proximity sensor offs... there's also a lot of different Widgets that put a "screen off" button on your screen so you don't have to reach for the power button every time. I use a power off widget on my bigger phones to make it quicker to kill the screen... wow, I just realized how sad and spoiled we are! Do you guys remember Windows 98???

Thanks to everyone who responded, you've all been a great help. Now as far as proximity sensor apps go, are there any that stand out as being the best?

just try them, no one is going to hand feed you.
LOL
@ hand feed!
You can also check out screen off and lock. That's what I'm currently using, once you set it up you can just place a widget on your home screen, tap the icon and "done", you can also add a touch of old tv style to it
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.....

I stumbled across a cool little feature while the screen is off. Cover the light and proximity sensors for several seconds and the top half of the screen will emit an aqua blue aura that displays missed calls, messages, and battery. I know this feature is somewhat useless, just thought I'll do some digging after it accidentally popped up on me while handling the phone.
Edit: Cool, I didn't realize it was the Quick Glance feature. Thought I was going crazy when I couldn't figure out how to reproduce it.
Hmm I do not see that
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Doesn't happen here, either. Is this some kind of buried setting?
I could see this being useful if it could detect your phone is in your pocket, and when you pull it out, it would show that information.
It's in settings - motion - quick glance.
Then if you scroll down while still in motion to advanced settings there are more options for it in there.

Yeah I found it, very neat. I turned it on, I'll see if I continue to like it or if I find it annoying.I turned on a few more motion features. Why not try them?
The phone must also be laying flat (like on the table for example) otherwise it doesn't work.
Yeah it doesn't seem to be too reliable plus the info goes away too fast for me

thanks for this...no more pressing the power button when my phone is on the nightstand just to see the time or battery...etc...nice feature
Cool.

Does turning this on have and detrimental effects on battery life? Does it get activated accidentally in your pocket?
Love it. Wish it was faster, though. My screen turn on lag is not good

I noticed you can press the touch keys in those few seconds while the screen lights up and it will make the drip sound... little annoying in the middle of the night.

Don't think it would do much damage to the 3100mAh battery. I'm still getting over a day's use, at least 6 hours of screen on with the quick glance feature on. According to others, it only triggers if the phone has been laying on a flat surface. So I think it'll be just fine in our pockets.
How do you disable one hand operation keyboard layout using the kb? For some reason, my kb layout changes to one hand operation when I type fast. I always go to the menu to turn it off.
Thanks!

Did you ever figure this out? keeps happening to me too.
bump. seriously can someone please help us figure something out? I dont want to switch keyboards, I like this one a lot...
It may be due to the shortcut of pinch-in on the keyboard for one-hand operation..
Thanks
My baby always did this with my keyboard and I couldn't figure it out. It was the pinch in/out feature. Thank you so much
