Hi guys,
I love my HTC One but hell... the vibrations are damn strong due to the metallic unibody. Is there an app (for root-users) wich allows me to reuce the vibration intensity for _all_ applications? I've tried Vybe but it doesn't work for me. I'm using the stock HTC Sense ROM with root-access.
What do you think about the intensity? Are you good with that or is it too weak/hard in your opinion?
Thanks

I second this. Had my phone on alarm mode this morning and the vibration alone scared me awake.
Faux's kernels allow you to change vibration intensity in his kernel enhancement app. Idk any other way though
The strong vibrate isn't due to it being aluminum. It's because, well, it has a strong vibration motor in it.
I like it, but at times it is way intense. HTC over-compensated with the design. Presumably to finally make vibrate useful (it's so light in most other phones).
Well, they over did it a bit, but I'm not complaining.

Update: Works perfectly! Thank you all!

I was wondering if ianyone has any idea which files we might need to extract from a Desire ROM to replace the auto-brightness code in Nexus ROMs?
I've noticed that it seems to work much better on the Modaco Desire ROM, with a higher base level of brightness and more consistent reaction to the ambient light level.
Wow, thats awesome.
Anybody an idea, where to find?
The script on Nexus is...****ty.
It has automatic brightness, but it's useless on this phone for now.
Thats right i don't even use it as it doesn't work as it should
It will be grate if some one could work it out.
Plus one on that. We need to combine all the best things from both devices to create one super rom...we shall then call it "Super ROM".
I was just discussing this with my brother, a steady 50% level of brightness looks better then the auto feature on the phone.
He just got his and I told him to shut it off its looks horrible, the green look so fake unless the brightness is on 55% steady and up
I do agree with this: the Desire ROM is pretty damn consistent with the auto brightness.

I didnt even bother checking for the auto-brightness on this ROM. I cant believe it works. Thanks OP
+1 on this! I figured I wasn't the only one.
would be cool if it's possible, but i am not sure if it will work?
+$10 LOL
I know how to extract it. I'll have a look at try it out on my N1.
Just use the desire rom. Why do some people not like it? I love it.

I tried the Desire ROM some days ago, and the screen seemed brighter than the default Nexus ROM (both at max brightness). Anyone noticed that ?
While we are on the subject of extracting things.... how about extracting the HTC Music app to be used on Cyanogen....

But I agree that it would be better if the base brightness is higher.

Is it possible to use the touch buttons as an LED notifier for missed calls, email, and SMS? Sure they cant change colors but at least it could blink every X seconds/minutes.
You do Realize this has been asked before.. I sent Jac a thread that has this working on the I9000.. Not sure if he's still looking into it or not though.
its already done for Captivate.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780732
Whats included:
-Correct Screen auto-rotate
-HSUPA support
-MobileAP support (aka wireless tethering)
-Selecting with power button in recovery mode
-External SD card support
-Postboot scripts
-Voodoo lagfix
-Softkey Backlight Notification
I tried and got bricked... so if someone can make this for Vibrant i will be happy.
I use the app noLED. Works pretty well. Found it in the market.

I personally don't care for that app. It's okay idea, but what really needs to get done is samsung to implement the Notifications into the buttons. I've seen what the i9000 has done, it's not too bad. This has been posted many times, you might want to try the search button

Ive been using that but its questionable how it affects battery life and long-term effects on the screen life.
noLED is a decent alternative imo
When I used to noLED I would press the volume buttons and it would give me the volume sound and light up the screen but still on black. So I predicted it would kill my battery quicker.

NoLED is a PITA...it adds another layer of lockscreens/button-touches to get your notifications, thus I didn't care for it much. It also FC'd on me all the time...YMMV.
Someone will most likely get the button led flash to work one day, just be patient.
Flash notify in the market place will suffice for now and it actually works pretty good
surprised this hasn't already been implemented for the vibrant. if it's already done on the captivate isn't it just a matter of time for someone to port the code over?
Reason it hasn't been implemented got the vibrant its because your talking a whole new kernel build... Along with that the current implementations of it, from what I read prior, aren't too fond of battery life and they can't make it blink like a led would do. The buttons backlight just stays on. I don't know if that has changed any time recently but thats what it was like the previous time I looked it up.

hmm I never had a issue with it nor any extra battery drain. Is it the best coolest app nope. But it works for notifications
Samsung fixed this probably purposely overlooked notification problem with galaxy S phones with a whole new galaxy S, the Continuum

That phone is the ugliest excuse for a phone, add a damn led... Its that simple, why decrease the main screen size for a very sub par mini screen that looks like trash.

Yeah that things not looking so hot for me either. Lol
The best alternative IMO is Flash Notify. Been using it for a long time with no issues. Really wanted the soft keys to light up for notifications but I don't find that necessary anymore.

On my Galaxy S and Nexus S the mod I most appreciated was Backlight Notification (BLN) to use the LEDs for missed call/text notifications.
Does anybody know how possible such a mod is for the SGS2? It took a long time to appear on the Nexus S scene - is it likely to be just as tricky for the SGS2?
BLN would be great. Going to use Noled for now I guess.
definately possible since neldar released the version for older sgs gingerbread today..
I started a thread about a bounty for this. I don't think there is much interest. Which is crazy. Not having a notification led really sucks.
I would really like this too, maybe since the phone hasn't been out long it'll take a bit of time to get this on the radar for development. Especially as it still hasn't been released in some countries yet.
I came from an HTC hero, so this hasn't been an issue previously, and it took a bit of searching to find out that BLN had existed for previous galaxy phones.

Excellent! Neldar's BLN is definitely sorely missed on the i9100.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
Can someone explain the advantage of this over NoLED?
I too came from a Hero and have been happier with NoLED than a single LED notification. There are already tons of options to setup NoLED however you want. I can't imagine a mod being any better...
No led is useless to me since I dont use a lock screen, hate em. Does the bln version work without one? I read for 20 minutes in the link without figuring that out.
This is the mod I am most looking forward too
so any news about the BLN application for Galaxy S II ?
Yes, same here. Eagerly waiting for BLN to support the I9100. But isn't there any other app in the market? As our phone has in built key light it shouldn't be very hard to make an app I guess.
Regards.

Lets hope its soon! I'm very excited for this mod.
I'm also looking VERY much forward to this mod, since I'm coming from an HTC phone (Hero) where this is standard.
This would make the SGS2 perfect! ATM it's only almost perfect
Would also happily add to the bounty
im also looking forward to this mod. can't believe a notification LED wasnt built in.. must have just forgot?
I will definitely donate for this!!
yes, this and the lock screen delay issue is the only thing holding this wonderful phone back.
Does BLN control Pro v0.11.10 work on SGS II??
Hi,
is there any way to adjust the brightness of the capacitive buttons?
Most of the time I can hardly see them (in normal daylight) and have to cover the top of the phone (earpiece / front camera) so that they light up.
Thanks in advance for any help
There's an app file it for the HOX. Ill talk to the Dev to see about modding for our device.

I think I came across that app yesterday and was quite happy to find it, but yeah, unfortunately it's not working on the HOX+
Would be great if it can be modded for the HOX+

If you are running OrDroid rom, then check HERE. Perfect settings for me. Might work on other roms too. This mod has adjusted sensor sensitivity values in framework-res.apk, so flashing it might overwrite another mod!

I'm currently still running stock ROM with a few visual tweaks but they just don't appear to turn on soon enough.
It's like if there us any ambient light, no matter how dim, they won't show!!! Stupid decision by HTC. :banghead:

I read somewhere that it is a known issue that the lights don't always turn on when they are supposed to. As for the brightness of the buttons, I believe they only turn on or off.

AWESOME!!! Thanks a lot.
I applied it to Stock ROM, now whenever the screen is on, the buttons are, too. Perfect. I love my HOX+ again
is there a way to turn it off permanently?

Anyone notice the light of the buttons leak through the screen and wash out the whites you can tell when you power down the phone than turn it on and as soon as its on you should notice

Is there a way to increase the vibration intensity on the M9? My M7 would buzz like a freight train, but the M9 is so quick and quiet I've been missing messages, especially if it's not in my hand.

Mines actually pretty strong, comparable to my old M7. The easiest way to do this would probably be to wait for a custom kernel that supports changing the vibration intensity through Trickster (or something similar). That's how I've always done it in the past...
I wish Sprint would hurry up & release their kernel source, I've been checking on HTCDEV every day I've also been trying to find a guide that would show me how to port an international kernel to carrier-specific, but I have not had any luck.
