Does the new Nexus 7 have haptic feedback? (VIbration)
The original didn't and it was missed.
Nope. Unfortunately it was not added to this one either.
If I'm not mistaken, the nexus 10 has this, right?

No haptic feedback, but the speakers are strong enough to vibrate the unit a little, resulting in something similar when a notification goes off.

I've just got my 2nd OX after I sent the first one back due to the very very light haptic/vibration feedback from the screen and buttons.
I've just test the replacement and it's EXACTLY the same. I know the vibration works normally on this and the one I sent back but it's just so light compared to my SGS2 (*pukes*), my trusty HD2 before that and my brother's new OS.
So what's the deal? How's your haptic feedback? Is there a way to set the strength of it?
I guess that is normal. I also have the impression that the haptic feedback is way to light - compared to my Galaxy S2.
Yeah the haptic feedback is relatively light. I personally prefer it that way .
Heard that AOKP ROMS may be coming to HOX and from memory, I think they give you the chance to change the length/intensity of the haptic feedback.
It's normal...
It's much lighter than other phones... but I like it this way. The GNexus I previously had had an annoyingly strong haptic feedback, so i turned it off...
So I sent back my perfect OX for one that might not be perfect?
Is there anything I can do to increase the duration of the vibration because it really doesn't work as it is for me.
Definitely lighter than previous phones, and for better IMO

Plus one. I can barely tell when I've hit or missed the soft key I was going for.
Back in the days of Cyanogenmod on my Thunderbolt, I remember there was a ridiculously intricate section built right into the Settings app for adjusting haptic feedback durations, patterns, intensity, etc. Perhaps it's possible to incorporate those settings into a rooted OneX or other Sense 4.0 device.
Oh, sorry for bringing up a somewhat old thread.
My haptic feedback feels reasonably strong, more so than the LG Secret I had years ago (the last phone I had to feature haptic feedback). I don't like it at all though, it's one of the first things I turned off. It seems that with my very fast typing the haptic feedback lags a little, which gives the illusion the whole phone is lagging. It isn't of course as the UI is responding perfectly.
I have increased the feedback with the keyboard, I have SwiftKey 3 installed for that though....
Yeah, would love to be able to turn the soft key vibration up a notch. It's pretty useless as is. Either that or add some sound to them.
Flash a cm10 ROM. Problem solved. Haptic feedback is great

Nah. Not fond of Cyanogen ROMs.
HOX about two weeks old, not rooted running apex pro nothing toi fancy. First my feedback is more pronounced than on other phones but that's nothing compared to what I would describe as an alarm of some sorts (guessing) that is between 12 and 15 seconds at full vibration. If you've run a program to drain your battery with full haptic running. I'm at a loss and have reset phone 3 times, but it can't to good for the phone, and way beyond haptic feedback. Any suggestions? Ideas? Also, can't duplicate as yet and not really enthusiastic about tech support or store either.
Thanks

I have been frustrated by battery life with the ics leaks, getting maybe 6 hours on a charge.... I thought it was maybe bad batteries but...
Turning off LED notifications and vibration on keypress has me at 7 hours of normal usage and at 91% battery.
Holy crap you guys, can it be this simple? Is anyone else seeing this kind of improvement?
Btw, gb roms never drained like I was seeing, even with keypress vibration on....

I might try this but I do like haptic feedback. The LED I would question on being part of your gain in battery life though. It's power draw can't be much if even noticeable. For one they're not very bright (remember how bright Blackberry LED's were?) and also the flash timing is long but with a very short duration.
Just as a reference. My dad has this Pink Floyd CD with a red LED on the spine of the case. It's powered by 1 AA and that damn thing blinked every 2 or so seconds 24/7 for about 12(ish) years.
That vibe motor though... well I had a joke about women, BOBs, and batteries but I lost it. The words are there, you figure something out.
Someone else posted in another thread that it is not the led itself that drains battery but the fact that keeping it blinking prevents the phone from going into deep sleep. (I assume it is checking to see if there are active notifications.) That WOULD explain the difference...
I believe notification led blinking rely on a software timer thus keeps phone from going into deep sleep mode currently

Yes, I usually did this on the leaks. Turn off all sound, all vibrations (haptic and notification) dim the screen to minimum and remove the led and you can last 24hours. You will miss every phone call. But who has time for phone calls? Anyway, battery life is fine on cm9 a5 even if I forget to charge at night.

I've been keeping up with this myself with great interest. Led notification is pretty valuable for me as i typically work in a noisy environment. Anyone want to comment on whether this can be "fixed" once source is released.

It might be fix once source is release as for me I dont use the notification led light at all if im away from my phone I just hit the power button and see if I missed anything whenever I get near my phone but luckily my phone is always on me

I feel so bad for our devs.

Hi all I have just bought the new nexus 7 and I love it. One problem is I have never seen the notification light work yet. I have checked in settings and it's ticked.. When does it flash? Is it every time you get a notification from eg Facebook etc,? I'm worried it's not working.
The light is usually associated with notifications, yes. Usually this is configurable in the apps responsible for the notifications.
I thought the same when I got mine but it was flashing during a notification a while back so at least it works but rare.

Mine triggers on e-mails, so I see it a lot!
Does work thanks sent myself an Email
I use LightFlow and configured the light to fade in and out with almost no period of time where the light is off. It looks as if the light is "breathing", and is much more noticeable than the 10 second delay between flashes that the stock light is. Give it a shot.
So far, I've only seen it light with email. General notifications don't seem to trigger it.
My first Nexus 7 (2013) had a completely broken notification light. No matter what I did, I couldn't get it to light up. (I ran testing programs, Light Flow, sent myself emails, etc). Exchanged it at Best Buy and the new one worked immediately. So just know that there are some defective notification LEDs out there.
There's a whole slew of less common issues that IMO if it bothers you, you should get an exchange, but if not, just live with it.
LED doesn't work
NFC doesn't work
Bluetooth doesn't work
Qi wireless charging doesn't work
dust under screen
light bleed
offwhite screens
dead/stuck pixels
mushy Power/Volume buttons
creaky edges
back cover comes off easily
screen separating from tablet
battery charger not recognized even though it is charging
microphone doesn't work
one speaker has no sound
charger makes buzzing noise
camera blurry
--
spasdic multi-touch
touchscreen dead-spots
camera crashes tablet
hardware related random reboots (not the same as software-related reboots)
--
The last 4 can sometimes be mitigated in software so try fixes first.
Many of these issues are rare. Some are more common. I think a lot of people don't even notice or just live with it because it really doesn't bother them that much or they don't even use the feature.

What settings did you use to do this? Sounds interesting.
Hmm...it sounds like my LED light took a dump on me then. I've had my Nexus 7 2013 for about a month. It used to notify me for emails...now nothing. And yes it does bother me.

Hmm, downloaded light flow lite and I don't see that setting anywhere...
Dl light manager....
So just got the phone a few days ago and noticed when typing on the keyboard at night I can hear the haptic feedback make a weird pop noise once in a while. I'm like OCD and such but was wondering if this was normal? It like vibrates fine but like the motor sometimes "clicks"
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
juz got my m8. amazing build quality. amazing interface. I just changed from S4, and I can say the stock keyboard is much better!! S4 would get some lags on LINE app after awhile... but so far my m8 rock seems very good. I will wait a few weeks to see how it goes.
Separately, anyone encountered a very soft "click" / tick sound whenever the vibration haptic feedback? This happens once every so often (say every 10 vibrations will yield one "tick" sound). When i put my ear to the phone, it seems as though the vibrating motor itself is maybe not aligned, so there is slight rattle sound. NOTE: I have already switch off the SOUND click feedback. This is definitely a mechanical tick....super duper soft...
Is this common? Maybe in just ocd...
This phone is so perfect in all other ways...

Yeah I have it too.
Had it on my S4 as well so I don't care.
