[Q] Any way to vary vibration intensity for events vs keypress? - Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For all events/calls/notifications/etc, I want my vibration intensity set to max so when my phone is in my pocket I can be sure to feel it going off. However, when I'm using it I want a more mild intensity on key presses.
Does anyone know of a way/mod/app that would allow me to have this "dual" intensity?
From the little bit of looking I've done, I'm suspecting the answer is no, but I can always hope
Thanks for any insight.

I used to have a vibration app from the market called smart vibrator I believe. Hope this is want you're looking for.

Xperia Mini Vibration Quality

I used to use s.e. W810, recently switched to xperia mini. Everything is pretty nice but the vibration level. It's barely sensible. When I have my phone in my jean pocket switched to silent mode, I feel nothing and when I check it to see whether there is any notification, usually I got ,say, 3 messages and 2 missing call
So, it's obvious that I don't feel the vibration. Searched a little about it, but neither could find anyone suffers from that problem like I do nor a solution to increase vibration level. However thought that maybe by reaching the phone's system files that can be feasible. So, is it possible to do that, if so, how ?
Thanks in advance.
I've not had a problem with it, but there are also apps to allow you to make your own vibration patterns. So maybe something with a bit more stop/start would help?

Thanks for your suggestion but the problem is not the pattern but the level of the vibration definitely. I compared it with other phones and it's really not that high like old phones.
Go sms pro can help you define how many miliseconds the vibration for a notification for a new text should last. haven't used any app which can do the same for incoming calls, but it should exist somewhere in the market!
Actually what I'm looking for is to be able to increase the power of the motor inside the phone which creates those vibrations. This is adjustable for sure, cause for instance as typing it vibrates very slowly. So, by playing with codes they can be achieved, at least as theoretically

Softbuttons vibrate is weak when the lights are off

Recently, when my phone is exposed to brightness, and the softkey light goes off, the vibrate on the softkeys become very weak. When my phone is in darker places, and the lights go on, the vibrate is solid and good.
I haven't made any changes on my phone that I can think of could cause this. I'm running 2.3.6 rooted. Only changes I've made are some CPU tweaks and overclock.
I found a similar thread about this problem on the Motorola forums, but no good answer. They thought it was a powersaving feature, but this is an issue that only happens for some.
Is there any tweak to always enable the lights when screen is on? That'd be better for me.
Bump!
Am I really alone about this? Id love a tweak that enables the lights all the time.
Thanks in advance
There is an app in Play Store called Lux. I believe it will let you have the buttons lit all the time. I find my Razr Maxx has weak vibration. I don't use the soft key or keyboard vibration but the notifications are weak.
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately that didn't work, the app didn't have any feature to control the lights of the buttons.
Just to clarify thoygh, I'm talking about the 4 buttons on the bottom of the phone. I'm not sure anymore if these are the soft keys.
Anyone know another workaround? Thanks in advance.
i use screendim and theres an option in there to make the backlights to stay on all the time.
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
Screendim did the trick for me, however the buttons will now stay lit even when screen is off, which is a battery drainer. I'll just have to live with this, it's not that big of an issue I guess...
Thanks for your replies guys

[Q] Boost haptic feedback duration

Hello all
I have a OnePlus One running CM12 (unofficial). My haptic feedback for virtual button presses is very weak. I *may* have affected performance of the motor a when trying to solder a Qi receiver into the handset, as I accidentally touched the battery live to the motor causing it to run at full power for a few seconds. Otherwise, I could be totally imagining it and it could be caused by CM12 [edit: I have tried Paranoid Android and it is super weak on PA too]. Either way, I just want to make the haptic feedback duration for virtual button presses a few milliseconds longer so it's more noticable.
I have managed to do this for Google Keyboard in the app settings and it works nicely.
Otherwise, vibration intensity is set to maximum, which is good for notifications, but I really need to increase the duration, not the intensity. Is there a way to do this in Android... like the equivalent of a registry tweak or something?
Thanks
Mike
EDIT: I found an old post here which explains that (at least on Gingerbread):
If you want to set your own values they are located in the framework-res.apk\res\values\arrays

Being a total amateur, I have no idea how to edit these - any suggestions?

Any Way To Increase The Intensity Of The Vibration?

Often get many messages and notifications that go noticed as the vibration is very weak. Is there anyway to adjust the intensity?
I really wish there as a way, it's pathetic. I don't think I've managed to notice a single call when I'm walking... I think I might have to switch phones because of this. I've managed to work out almost everything else to be how I want it, but even with root (which I don't have yet), I can't see a way around this one. There are some apps that change vibration pattern and those might help but intensity is a no go I think... Oh well, love the phone so a bit gutted to be honest...

Question Vibrate options?

Ok my phone is pretty much always on vibrate.
but when my phone is just sitting on my desk or in my pocket, i git only a blip of vibrate to notify me, and thats it.
i miss a lot of messages due to the fact that this phones vibrate function is terrible, i need to know how to increase intensisity or increase the length of notification vibrate.
I tried a few Notifier apps but none have help.
let me know what you recommend in app or workaround
let me know please

Greetings, rinnycoop121.
Have you used BuzzKill before? It's the only app that can efficiently perform your job (It can assist with notification vibration duration, and in theory, that may help with the intensity of the notification vibration).
Here is a rundown of how it works:
You create a rule in the BuzzKill app, and it provides you with an outline in the form of "When I get a notification from any app that contains anything, then do nothing"
any app
You can select as many apps as you want impacted
anything
You can filter by words/phrases, images/phone numbers/languages, and you can create your own complex filters
nothing
There's a variety of actions (Cooldown, Mute, Remind me, Alarm, Speak, Unsilence, Snooze, Batch, Secret, Custom alert, Sticky, Keep if, Dismiss, Undo dismiss, Reply, Press button, Open notification, Copy verification code, Set ringer, Remove from history, Trigger Tasker), but the one I think best suited for you is "Custom alert"
"Custom alert" gives you an outline in the form of "When I get a notification from any app that contains anything, then custom alert with default vibration and default sound
any app
You can select as many apps as you want impacted
default vibration
You can build a vibration pattern (Add buzzes, gaps)
You can make your vibration pattern as long or as short as you want
default sound
You can select the sound that you want emitted from your device
I'm convinced that BuzzKill will assist you in circumventing the OnePlus Nord N200's notification/vibration limits (Or any other Android device for that matter). Regardless, let me know what you think rinnycoop121.
