Vibration Strength/intensity - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers
So the vibration strength on the P2 is very weak - to the point that often it cannot be felt in a pocket.
Do any of the custom ROMs provide a Vibration Intensity setting where vibration strength can be raised? By default, is the setting already at the highest level, or can it be made stronger? Please note, I'm not talking about vibration patterns - such as a long or short vibrate - rather actual vibration strength from the vibration motor itself.... Many thanks everyone!

I think the los14.1 by highway star does have this feature
In my Lenovo P2 stock ROM there is no problem about low vibration feedback. I think there is some bug in your device or it is a some type of hardware problem.

I'm astonished to hear that! You don't think it's far too weak for notifications/calls when on Silent-mode?

My phone is 2 metre away from me and I still heard & Feel the vibrations. And one more thing use body massage vibration app from Playstore to check vibration intensity.

Not so much about hearing them - more about feeling them when the phone is in my pocket. I just don't, and have read many others have the same issue.
With custom kernel you can get custom vibration intensity, but not all custom kernel has it.

[Q] Vibration too noisy. Any way to adjust?
Hello everyone! I have bought a SWR50 a few days ago to replace a SRW10 that I lost since I thought it would be a nice upgrade. The most important feature for me is the silent alarms (I get up way much earlier than my partner). But the problem is that the vibration of the alarm is really noisy (you can hear the buzz from far) Is there a way to reduce the vibration strength? I have also tried Sleep As Android that vivrates gently a few times before going full strength. But it is so difficult to dismiss that It always goes full speed before I manage to stop it. Also other tips about alarm apps would be appreciated. Thanks a lot!
Rattle during vibrate on touch?
I have a new G4 with grey plastic back. I'm starting to get annoyed by the vibrate caused by the on-screen buttons because it seems to make a rattling sound toward the top of the phone? Has anybody else observed this?
You can change vibration strength in Settings > Sound & Notification > Vibration Strength. I think there's a vibration adjustment in some of the keyboards too. There's several things at the top of the phone that could cause your problem, including the vibration motor. Look at the pictures in this teardown to see their locations. It wouldn't be hard to take it apart and have a look at the parts on the midplane, but I'd suggest replacing it under warranty. Be sure to block updates on the new one so you don't get screwed out of root! Good luck!

is there any chance of increasing the vibration intensity or duration? im constantly missing my notifications as i cant even feel it

Click to collapse I'm afraid not. The only way would be tightening it to your wrist. The looser it is, the more chances are your not gonna feel it vibrating Sent from my XT1092 using Tapatalk
Try the app Feel the Wear. You can set different vibrating patterns for different apps. Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Increase vibration intensity...?
Just wondering if it were possible to adjust vibration intensity when a notification arrives?...anyone? Sent from my Pixel XL using XDA-Developers mobile app
This should be in Q&A as it's not related to an app, theme or mod.
Also would like to know about this. Vibration seems to be loud, but not easy to feel in my pocket.
I agree, vibration is too soft to rely on in the pocket
Any update on how to improve this? My moto x pure has a great vibration intensity and I'm hesitant to give that up... Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk 2
Still no luck? I can't feel the thing vibrate at all Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk 2
You need a kernel with the ability to adjust that.
If u got root, I'm currently on ElementalX kernel and I just adjusted vibrate intensity. Definitely a improvement.
Please correct me if I'm wrong. But ElementalX only lets you increase vibration for stuff like button presses. So you're capable of going from stock settings of maybe 50% vibration up to stock system max 100% vibration. But overall system max vibration remains at 100%. You can't go higher than that. So stuff like text message alerts and incoming call alerts will remain at current stock 100% vibration levels. Count me among those who want more vibration! ...and a brighter LED alert as well. As a workaround, I use my Textra SMS app's built in ability to change the vibration style. I set it to multiple long vibrations instead of the stock single vibration. It does help a little to make it more noticeable when I get a text when the phone is in my pocket.
You are right. Main reason for me to flash El-X was the vibration thingy, but the default vibration is already set at highest, you can't go higher than that. You can, but the haptik feedback one, that's completely an unneeded feature for me. So if anyone is looking for actual device vibration, then no, custom kernel won't allow to increase it, you can decrease it though, not that's the point.
Anemic Vibration, anyone?
was tripping through the keyboard settings and saw that vibration was ON. which surprised me, because i haven't yet felt it. up a level to Vibration Intensity, and i set it to 100% — and only then did i feel it, and it was still quite subtle. what have y'all noticed? edit: okay, strange things. now the vibration is quite noticeable, and seems normal. go figure.
