Haptic Feedback

I've searched for this throughout this forum and haven't been able to find anything...
I recently seemed to have lost haptic feedback on my Evo. I made sure that it's enabled and sometimes i would feel the feedback but sometimes not. when I press the capacitive buttons, i get hardly any feedback from them. When I tap and hold on the screen (for inserting new apps icons or removing them or adding or removing widgets) i get no feedback at all. However, I know the motor is working because my phone does vibrate when I test it with the HTC Function Test Program. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I'm using Myn's 2.2 RLS5 and I know it has haptic feedback because it was working up until 2 days ago. I can hear the motor is trying to spin up but can't quite do it but mainly for the short feedbacks such as, typing or pressing the capacitive buttons. Thanks.

[Q] Missing Silent Mode on Jelly Bean?

Hi all, How are you?
I updated my Galaxy Nexus to Jelly Bean, and It seems that silent mode options were removed from Settings?
I have spent some time searching for the silent mode options on Settings and I could not figure out where they are now.
Please, May someone confirm that Silent mode options were removed from stock Jelly Bean (4.1.1 Build JR003C)?
thanks in advance,
Roger

Hi Roger,
I am new but thought maybe I could help. If you hold the power button for a second a menu will appear. Just touch the speaker with the / through it or just hit volume down until the speaker has a strike through it from the main menu. Does that help?

Use volume rocker down key till it goes to silent mode

Hi all,
thanks a lot for helping.
So, Were the silent options really removed from settings on Android 4.1 stock?Or are they somewhere else?
I could't find it...
Both work around posted works, but it is huge drawback as I can`t switch between Silent mode profiles easily anymore
(normal, only vibrate and mute all profiles) =(
On ICS, I could easily switch between normal profile, vibrate and mute all on Settings as those options where all on the same place.
Is there any Settings menu where I can do the same on Jelly Bean?

Well, using the power button I can switch from normal to vibrate, but I couldn`t find a option to switch it to mute all(I mean, also to silent vibrate). Did I miss something?

It works only to put the phone on vibrate, and It is not efficient/practical hit the volume rocker all the time when You switch among those profiles very often...

I am not sure what is missing because I always use the volume rocker or the power switch to change profiles. If you hold down the power button there should be 3 options on the bottom of the screen. 1. The speaker with a / through it (silent mode) 2. A vibrating phone (vibrate only mode) 3. A regular speaker (all on). If you are not seeing 3 options I am not sure how to solve your problem. Also if you are thankful, please hit the thanks button instead of saying thanks. Cheers and good luck Roger.

Hi NexUsandThem,
thanks a lot for helping again (this time I used the thanks button )
Those options were also available on Settings->Sound on ICS.
I have looked on Android 2.3 and 4.0.4 and those options are present there.
Therefore, I think they were removed from Jelly Bean =/

i have silent mode?

this is from 4.1.1

Well you are definitely missing something as the picture above shows the power-menu on jb with all the 3 actions you have requested? Mine looks like this as well.

Sound Menu API changed with Jellybean update V4.1.1.1
Why did Google change the Mute and Vibrate controls in update V4.1.1.1 ? I have been using two profile managment programs, 1 is automatic and 1 is a set of manual presets of the user's own design.
Changes that messed me up:
-Mute had been removed from the sound menu.
-Vibrate is on automatically on all rings and notifications when you turn the volume down to zero.
My profile programs cannot access the manual controls available when you hold the power button.
Because of the demands of my job, I have become a phone "user", rather than a phone hobbyist who has hours to tinker with a phone. I wish Google wouldn't just scramble controls around between versions, breaking the functionality of profile APPS bought on Google Market.
I am just sort of pissed because of the time lost to this problem and my phone is still vibrating when I don't want it too.

Wake up lag, or is it just me?

My phone takes like 1 second to wake up. I know it doesn't sound like much, but I got used to the instantaneous wake ups with my old SGS3 and I thought this phone would be snapier.
Anyone else?

I have the same wake up lag.

Everyone has this problem, i dont think anyone has found a fix yet, all i know is that its not the processors fault

I have both phones and the Note 2 wins 90% of the time and my S3 has a custom rom and kernel so it's pretty beefed up so I think some of us got decent one's..? As you said though... Definitely NOT the processor!

Go to S Voice settings, then disable Open Via Home Key.
That should disable the wake up lag

Think that tip is for the "home button lag" fix...?

yeah when you first get your phone and you press home it doesnt go directly to home, it waits a second or two for the second click to activate s-voice but if you disable it (s voice < google search) it will go directly to home

Yup! :good:

I've noticed my phone doing the same thing. If it's a couple minutes in between turning the screen on it takes a second. My phone also seems to struggle with some simple transition animations, now.
Where are the S voice settings. I can't seem to find them.

No this fixes a separate issue. This fixes the home button lag when using it to go from an app to the home screen.
What the OP is talking about is the delay that you get when trying to wake up the phone, whether it be with the home button or the side button. This seems like a software issue that hopefully Tmobile/Samsung address.

That's weird because I don't experience this issue. There is no lag when I wake up my phone.
However, my phone is the international version so most likely the issue is related to Tmobile bloatware.
Try to disable Svoice home button first. If you still experience this issue, then you should wait for update

It is not the "SVoice solution related problem". It is a "power/home button to turn on" issue which is totally different.
Every T-Mobile Note 2 has it (I tested it on several of them at the T-Mobile store).

Ya, uncheck the ripple effect and uncheck "Popup Note on lock screen".... Night and day difference for me!! And I unchecked Help text too.... Try it out guys... :good: Def better anyways! I don't have it with my International but I do with my T-mobile and I watched a vid by QBKing and he explained how this helped the Sprint version...
( They are in the "Lock Screen option" in the menu....)

Nice, although i turned back on ripple effect. And the thing I noticed is that if you just turn off and on the screen it takes a while longer. However, if you just turn off the screen, wait a few seconds, then turn it back on, it's much faster.

Multi-window buttons disappeared

Hello people,
I'm a long time lurker and first time poster
I got my GN2 a few days ago and absolutely love it. The only problem is that when I use the multi-window function, I don't see the "fullscreen" and "switch screen" buttons anymore. They were there when I got it, but they somehow disappeared.
I checked all the settings, but I can't seem to find a way to re#enable them.
I feel kinda noobish.
Anyone had the same problem?
Thanks in advance,
TG

I'm guessing you are tapping on that bar in the middle to make that button appear?

Hi folks, holding down the back button seems to make the multiwindow tab reappear. ..hope that works for you

The switch and full screen options appear whenever you resize the windows. Try moving the bar in the middle up or down and they would appear.

Thank you very much for the hint.
i found out after your hint that holding the back key will show/hide the multi-screen option. so you can see the small blue button on the left side of your screen.

Need Help phone won't vibrate

Hey folks Ive tried everything with this phone but just can't get it to vibrate and I really can't recall it ever vibrating. I've seen in other forums that others are having the same problems but there didn't seem to be a solid fix. The phone will not vibrate during calls or notifications of any kind when I have it set to always vibrate or vibrate during silence mode. I've gone to all of my messaging applications as well to select the vibrate function and it still doesn't work. Need help if possible.
Thanks,

go to sound settings and check vibration intensity...might be off??

Doesn't work, I have the intesity all the way actually. Also when I move the sensitivity levels the phone doesn't give any feedback. I think the vibrate engine may be blown.
