vibrate on touch

is there an app or hack that makes the phone vibrate on touch? i want some sort of indication that i have tapped the phone and i dont like the audible selection noise.
edit: im not really sure why i posted it in this section. i thought i was in the Q&A section but clearly not lol. if it needs to be in can be moved.
second that!
Yeah! that would be SOOOOO COOL!
Wrong Forum
Pretty sure this doesn't belong in the theme forum but there is an option for the android keyboard to cause the phone to vibrate on key press.
Menu>Settings>Locale&Text>Android Keyboard>Vibrate on Keypress
Although I only think this works for using the virtual keyboard doing text entry...

no it doesnt belong in this thread i posted it her by accident which is why i requested it to be moved if needed, nd yes that only works for the virtual keyboard.
Ive been looking forever for this too. I know its called "haptic" notifications. The sprint instinct utilizes this feature. I will follow this thread wherever it ends up!

ah i see...well if the virtual keyboard can vibrate shouldnt every 'tap' be able to cause a vibration
If you want your phone to vibrate on touch, go to settings> accessibility> and select kickback

LG Touch LED Notifications (Updated to Support Nitro!!)

Hello all,
I am creating this thread since we all at one point had a discussion regarding having some kind of notification alert on our phones the moment we achieve Unlock.
Well guess what, Xigzil aka MARTIN BÖRJESSON has an app on the market called LG 2X/Black/3D Notifications. I've installed this on the phone, and unfortunately, it does fully support the phone yet to work properly. I've reached to Xigzil and he will try to help and update his app so it will work with our phone but he will be needing our help. Since he does not have the phone, he will need things from us, so let's do our best to help Xigzil in achieving this.
For now, this will just be placeholder until he has decided to visit us here. Hopefully it won't be long
App has been UPDATED!! Nitro is now supported, download it here: LG Touch LED Notifications
What unlock?
/me confused.

UPDATE!!
So Xigzil has just updated his app!! It is now called LG Touch LED Notifications since it supports much much more LG phones, including our dear LG Nitro HD (P930)! I have not tried it just yet, just noticed that the update kicked in and that one of the supported phones is the Nitro. So go download it and give it a try and let us know how it is!
You can download it here: LG Touch LED Notifications
To Admin/Chris: Please move this thread to either General or Themes/Apps as it no longer pertains to a development effort. Thank you.
Hmm. Not sure whether I like it or not. I though maybe it'll be a fade in and out kind of effect but it just blinks. And all three buttons blink. Going to keel it for a while and see if its really useful.

I thought the same thing too. I guess it's kind of useful if I just have my phone on the table and I'm staring at something else, until it starts blinking and gains my attention. I do think however fade options would be fantastic, and if only one button would light up.
Maybe something like Gmail - Menu button
SMS - Home button
Other - Back button
Moved to general as asked. Don't forget, if you need me just send me a pm.

Is the ability to control each of those buttons individually built into the software, though? I mean, I thought it was all or nothing when it came to the button LED's.
eh, no K9 and google voice support

Yeah all or nothing for the buttons. Atleast we have some kind of notification now for the Nitro/Optimus LTE !
I like putting my phone face down so the speaker is up. Would it be possible for a notification app to blink the camera's LED flash?

Lol! [email protected], that's exactly the same thing that's on this thread, the same app made by the same guy
Liteon, to answer your question, I use this: Flashlight Notifier
It basically flashes the camera's LED when something triggers it. You can set it however you want, and the pattern on how the LED flashes too. It's very cool, but mind you, they flash really really bright, so in a dark area, expect people to jump out of their skin when this thing goes off lol!
I use both LG touch Notification and the Flashlight Notifier on this phone, so I can see the notification regardless of how you face your phone.

[Q] Can you turn Backlight/LED light off?

Is there a way to turn off back light and LED notification lights? I've tried an app called Led Flow -LED Control but it didn't work on the One V. Is there any way to turn off the back light buttons as well as the top LED light? To save battery? thanks!
You can use my file keyoff.zip to turn off the backlight completely. The LED notification, no mod as there is no request from my ROM user; not sure it can be done or not.

Disable Touch Key Backlight on Google Edition

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.
SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

power button question

Hello, I recently acquired a Pixel C and I am very happy with it but something is bugging me. The power button is kind of hard to push and there is no haptic feedback, i.e. click, like for the volume buttons. Could anyone be so kind and confirm how the power button feels on their device, to know if this is normal or if there's something wrong ? Big thanks in advance!!

It's not hard on my new Pixel C, feels just like my phone. There is no haptic feedback on the device which is a shame.

Thanks for your response! What I meant by haptic feedback was the subtle click you get when you press the volume buttons. My power button doesn't do that and sometimes I have to press twice do turn the pixel on or off, which is a bit annoying.

Ok, understood.
So my power button feels exactly like the volume controls. As you say, a 'subtle' click.
Mine has the click for the power button, and isn't hard to push at all. Sounds like there's something up with yours.

Did you install recovery and root?
If so, which method did you use? There are several documented in this forum, most out-of-date.
I'm just about to use TWRP 3.1.1-1 (to keep data encryption) and Magisk 14.5 which apparently now works with Pixel C.

yep, TWRP 3.1.1-1 and Magisk 14 work like a charm.
Combined with adAway and a modded youtube apk it's the perfect tablet for me, so glad they still had one left!
