I did a search on PPCGeeks, XDA, and Google, and couldn't find any app to make the touch screen on the Titan interactive - similar to the way the Voyager touch screen works (quick vibrate when the screen is touched).
Is there any app like this? If not, can someone make one?
Thanks!
You would think HTC being one (if not THEE one) #1 Smartphone manufacture that would have SOMETHING similiar to the iphone or Voyager. The HTC Cube to me is very "amatuer" looking compared to the iphone and Voyager UI. Even microsoft couldn't make anything similiar...hopefully WM7 will blow us away.
I agree that the Cube looks pretty basic (that's why I won't put it on my phone, but I do have the TouchFLO).
But what I'm looking for is for the phone to do a very quick vibrate whenever the screen is touched.
That technology is called Haptics and it is much more than just the phone vibrating. Haptics allows you to physically feel a vibration exactly on the spot of the screen you are touching. Your phone has to have Haptics vibration built into it to use it and there isn't a single HTC phone out there using the said technology.

Indeed.
That said, I'm still interested in any app that does simply what whiteblazer01 asked for. I'm always looking over my fingers when I'm trying to dial a phone number. I'd be willing to give a simple touch-response app a shot.
Anyone?

I have been looking into this also. Especialy when i use the media player or just the main screen shortcuts.
In the mean time I was able to find a CAB somewhere in this forum that enables vibration feedback when you dial a number. It replaces the tone with vibration. I hope you guys like it. (Sorry I dont have support for it because I am not the original creator of this CAB)
Make sure that once you install the CAB that you soft reset after.
Hope you like it.
That's exactly what it is - Haptics. Thanks for the link. The program [email protected]$ put a link to (thanks!) works on the keypad, but it really doesn't feel like the Haptics system. O well, its still cool though.
I found a link to another thread on this forum for the same thing. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1685449

I was thinkin about how we can make the phone vibrate when we tap the screen in any application instead of only the dial pad.
I came up with a theory that might give us some type of haptics feed back. It might not be exactly like haptics but it could make the phone vibrate.
There is a feature in our phone that can enable the phone to play a sound when we tap the screen for any reason. I was thinking why not replace the sound with just vibration like the CAB that changes the sound to vibration on the dialer?
Im not experienced at programming, but I am willing to take a shot into making this possible. Maybe some one can get a hold of a good programmer or some one good at registry tweaks to make this possible.
Just an idea

Great Idea [email protected]$, deffinately move forward with it, Ive been using the phonepadvibrate (essentially the same as what you posted) for well over 2 months now and love it. If you could do the same with the normal touch screen it would be amazing.
Yes its not full haptics, but in my opinion it really doesnt need to be. some sort of physical feedback (ie a slight vibration) would be great when working with the touch screen.

Carlos, I definitely agree, I would love to have that whenever the screen vibrated. Although, I don't know who would be willing to do that. I remember when I had the Apache (XV6700), I thought it would be cool if someone could make the LED lights on top into indicator lights for the shift and caps keys - which never happened (I don't know how, otherwise I would do it myself).
In fact, I wonder if someone can make a cab to have the shift and caps buttons make the indicator lights turn on whenever the buttons are pushed, not just when shift lock or caps lock are enabled.

It is very possible. I found other sources and they have some sort of program / prototype that can make this happen but it doesnt work on every tap of the screen.
What I want to do is make mine work on every tap of the screen but have the ability to turn it off and on to save power. Like turning the notification for the sound to play when you tap the screen on and off.
So far I have planned some steps to do it through the registry but since I am not an expert at programming like others are here it might take a while.
But any help is very welcome to complete this project and make it available for all.
As to changing the LED's on your phone. I think no2chem and some other guys found a way to customize your LED settings, but I'm not sure if it will be custom enough to indicate caps or shift. Maybe in the near future.

I am sure you probably have. I have the copy of the program that enables this feature. I believe it is extracted from a phone that has haptic feed back. But it is an executable.
This program is faulty. It doesn't respond on every tap and has performance issues. Other then that there hasn't been another one developed.
I'm trying to find a way to fix the issues of of the one that I found. Maybe by creating a new way to enable haptic feed back like I posted on previews posts, but it might take time to develop because I'm still learning how to mess with WM Reg. and programming.

i still havent tried the program out yet i really dont see the use for it
Let me know what you find out Carlos. I would agree with you that it may be better to have the phone vibrate maybe when any button is pushed instead of anytime the screen is tapped (or maybe have the option to choose?), and also have the option to turn it off. Lol, maybe we can call it "Taptics" instead of Haptics.
As for the LED's, I'll check with some of the other guys about what they can do. I do a lot of modding myself with other electronics (cars, motorcycles, game consoles, etc...), but I don't really get into programming all that much (although the logic makes sense to me).

Okay, so I noticed the phone does vibrate, however, when using the keypad while in a call, it makes a different tone, and does not vibrate.
Also, is there any update on ways to make all buttons vibrate (and configurable) when pressed? And of course, an option to turn the feature off?

I am not sure for all buttons but there is a CAB to make the phone vibrate when you press the screen. I tried it out and it works, but it's faulty and kills performance.
I'm still working on this project. I haven't had much time to work with it, but if any break through happens then I will post it up.
As a N1 user what I loved more than many other devices is that it has trackball wake and notifications colors for missed calls and sms (though thanks to Mod), do you think the main button under the screen of the SGS2 can do the same?

Probably not. I think the main home button is like in the SGS. For SGS developers made a mod called BLN which uses the capacitive buttons on the sides of the main home button for notifications.
Who knows, guess we will have to wait and see what the great Devs can accomplish.
I think remaping the home button will be easy for XDA devs but use its light for notifications...will take another couple of hours to implement it
Would be nice to be able to see notifications. Although I am not to concerned, I am coming from a iPhone which doesn't have any methods of notifications aside from sound.

The homebutton of SGSII already works the same way as trackballwake on N1, no need for development on that one.

The SGS's solution is probably the way to go. Light up the capacitive buttons with a custom kernel.
But I think I read somewhere that the SGS2 does that out of the box.

"And if they glowed in the precursor together with the backlit screen, but now the user can customize their work, there are several options."
It can mean anything, and who knows what google did with the translation. Sorry
They need the back lights to 'fade' in & out or 'pulse'. This gives such a high quality look to a device.

And while in the previous model they [buttons] lit up only with the screen backlight, now the user can define how and when the buttons light up from a number of available settings.
I have been looking at the Notification Vibration in a number of Apps and don't seem to be having any luck.
As an example on my Galaxy Tab I have sound ON and in the Twidroyd App I have it set to Vibrate on Alerts which it plays both a Notification sound AND vibrates strongly.
However, on the SGS II with the same settings in Twidroyd it will only play the sound but will not vibrate.
Note: Both phones main settings/sound settings/ vibrate is set to Always.
Has anyone else experienced no notification vibration?
EDITED:
Sorted ~ See Post 16.
It was the App Volume Ace which had turned off Vibration Notifications.
I have the same kind of problem.
Incoming calls, the phone sounds but no vibration. In settings, vibration is set to "Always".
Any idea please ?!?
Thanks
Well I am pleased someone finally decided to add a comment here, even if it were only to agree.
I find it difficult to accept that everyone is happy their SGS2 has no vibration notification.
Come on members... voice your thoughts.
Only with your input can we then investigate further.
Hey, I found something interesting that brings the vibration to my incoming calls. Maybe it's gonna help you.
1. in Settings/Sound make sure you set "Always" to Vibration
2. Put a cross to Haptic feedback then set your intensity
3. Desactivate Haptic feedback
I tried to call my SGS2 and the vibration came with the ringtone.
Last step, I re-activated the Haptic feedback and vibration is still working with the ringtone.
PS : hope you understood my english...

What ROM version are you using?
Haven't tried this yet but if it does work well done but obviously there is an error on the phone in that it should work by default yet takes this weird method to activate it.
Now what about other vibration alerts..... any takers?
I'm using the latest XWKE7 with a root SGS2
The others vibration alerts seems to work good.

Interesting...... So this may be an issue with stock roms.
I have decided to wait until Gingerbread 2.3.4 before updating as apart from the dreaded no vibration notifications everything else seems great.
I'd like to hear from any other members please.... if only to say their vibration notifications work/don't work and what rom they are on... Thanks.
Mine rings and vibrates on incoming call. Vibrate is set to always and I've not noticed any issues.
Maybe its the ringtone that you're using?
Notifications seem fine too e.g. on whatsapp.
Oh and I'm on stock.

What about other notifications.
I.e. on my Tab whenever I receive a tweet I hear the notification and it vibrates.
The SGS2 only plays the audio notification.
Yeh other notifications from apps where I've set to vibrate seem fine.
I actually downloaded Twydroid to test it out - set notifications for tweets, mentions and DMs and set to vibrate but all I got was the sound. Weird.

I have the XDA App installed and that doesn't play vibration alerts.
Re Facebbok it won't let me sign in so will have to try that again.
However what concerns me is you say XDA works for you yet fire me nothing.... no vibration.
Need to look more into XDA when I get out of theatre.
Just about to go in for a short surgery.
Catch you later have to prep.
Thanks.
Sorted....... and it was unbelievably simple (and stupid of me not to notice).
The 'culprit' (although I share blame in not noticing) was the App 'Volume Ace' which I had already installed some time ago.
Last night after theatre I checked thoroughly all the Apps that should be sending a vibration notification and there was nothing untoward that showed any sign the Apps would hit a problem with a vibration alert.
Next step was to look again at my settings..... nothing wrong there.
Finally I then started to methodically go through each App which had some form of control to Sound.
It was not long before I found when you brought up the window of Volume Ace there was something I had previously missed.
Take a look at the first screen picture in the link I have highlighted above and if you look 'ever so' closely at the second volume control, to the right is a 'vibration' icon.
This icon was not lit up. So I tapped on the icon, this changed it's appearance to bright orange and closed the window down.
As I receive tweets every couple of minutes or so it was not long before Twydroid sent me an audio notification AND yes.... a vibration one as well.
So, all sorted.
Thank you to all those who have participated. I now am going to find a quiet room to hide my face of shame.
Ha no worries, glad you got it sorted and hope all went ok with your op, cheers

Yes, it's now performing just as it should and I still can not believe how simple it were in the end. Very unusual for me to miss something like this.
It would be easy for me to put it down to the 22 operations I have performed this past week and say they have kept me busy but that would only be an excuse.
Not to be picky, but looking at the thread title looks like it was the app (Volume Ace) misbehavior.
You can change the same setting in the stock/built in settings, the app will just reflect that change.
Hey everybody!
I just joined so this is my first post and I am a iPhone 3GS convert. I am finding that the turn over silence feature only works if the phone already starts ringing. It does not silence future calls/notifications. This seems totally useless as it can also be silenced by pressing one of the volume buttons.
I would like to silence all calls and notifications by turning the phone face down and have it revert to normal mode when turning it over or picking it up, etc...
Is this possible? This feature is weak and useless and I cannot believe this is how it was implemented. Is my phone defective?
Thanks in advance!
This feature works when a incoming call is coming
when phone is on a flat surface with this motion effect activated,you will not get anysound or vibrations or you will get sound or vibration for just one second or even less
there is bug in this feature to be sorted out i think
Thanks for your response!
For me it doesn't silence anything. The phone rings and notifies as if it was in normal mode. There is no change in the behavior and I am positive the feature is enabled in the settings > motion menu. If it is a bug I hope they fix it because this a useful feature for me.
Are there any apps that might provide this functionality?

Welcome to XDA!
Thank you. I have submitted a request to have it moved.
Bump........
I'm afraid to say it but what you're asking for is not the intention of the feature as it is. They designed the motion control in this scenario for you to quickly grab your phone and turn it up side down to silence the ring without having to press a button, etc. I agree that's it's not all that great but I can see the benefit for some people.
Your phone is not defective, it just doesn't work the way you thought it would.
And just to add a little logic to the scenario... the feature is called 'motion' so it only works when motion occurs. If the phone is resting upside down, that's not the same thing.
It's called Motion Activation. You hear a phone call comes in, flip it over, the ring silenced. If you keep the phone upside down, there is no motion to activate anything and it won't silence anything. It only works for incoming calls and you need to flip the phone at the right time. Useless feature, as are all other Motion Activation features listed there.
Brilliant! So does this include notifications from text messages too? They must last at least a second or two. If I react quickly I could possibly silence around half of the notification! Useless! If this is truly the intended functionality then that is rediculous to me. Not to mention useless.
The point is putting the phone into a mode that emits no noise; not reacting to a noise that anyone that can fog a mirror can hear and then "flipping my phone over to silence it." If I flip the phone over then I don't want it to make noise. If the phone doesn't have that feature then fine. I find it a useful feature that is missing or poorly described/implemented at best.
"Logic to the situation?" Please. There is no logic in implementing a turn over silence feature the way you have described.

LoL. If you read the other Motion features Samsung implemented here, one of them is zoom in and out. The procedure is quite laughable and in the end, it is ten times easier to just pinch zoom on the screen. I don't know why Samsung even waste time on this.
Try these apps
Have you tried Flip4Silence or Flip-Silent? Both are free apps and seem to have decent reviews.
Thanks! I will definitely give those apps a try. I appreciate the response.

Hi guys,
After many hours of searching around the web i found a solution for this problem.
You just need to calibrate you phone, to do this follow the procedure:
1) Place your phone on the flat surface
2) Go to Settings > Display > Horizontal Calibration > and hit Calibrate
3) Go to Settings > Display > Gyro sensor calibration > and hit Calibrate
Now try the turn over feature
1) Go to settings > Motion > enable Turn Over
under tutorial > Turn over > Try > OK > once it starts ringing flip your phone
This should work fine!!
Cheers!!

I've used it since froyo and its really easy to set it up to silence phone on face down.
I must be dense. If you want the phone to be quiet when sitting why not just put it into Silent mode?

The feature is not there for a long term "silent mode", it is there to quickly silence the phone if it rings during a conversation, conference call, meeting, etc. I can it being useful for many people.

Is there a trick to rid myself of it completely (I'm not rooting the device)?
Can you elaborate, please? I understand that you don't want the machine vibration, but when? while you touch the screen, or the keyboard?
In that case just uncheck the vibration option under Settings -> Sound, or under Settings -> Language&Input -> Google keyboard settings.

Hi thanks I don't want it ever, I tried what you said last night (after googling it) but it didn't help. I discovered with more googling that me having everything permanently on mute was causing it to activate vibrate mode automatically. So I turned my volume to zero then up a notch or two (as was recommended). That cuts it out mostly but when I move app icons around for example it still bloody buzzes at me. Makes me jump every time.

Hey don't be like that man. We are only trying to help.
Go to settings, sound and disable vibrate on touch. This should disable the keyboard.
Download something like Widgetsoid and there should be a toggle that allows you to disable system wide vibrate.
Some apps may override it, like SwiftKey so you may need to disable it for some apps manually

I can assure you that with the following settings there are no vibrations at all (Nexus 10 stock). Maybe it is caused by a 3rd-party app?

I'm running stock. I have disabled it in the settings I did that before posting the thread. I've had a Nexus 7 since launch day, so I'm not a complete newbie.
I have only installed the following so far, all from the Google Play shop
Perfect Viewer
Comics (comiXology app)
build a lot 4
Stand O Food 3
As I said it is only happening now when I move an app icon around.

It's a stock launcher "issue"...
You could try Google Now Launcher...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.launcher
... or any other launcher.
It happens to me too using the stock launcher and Nova launcher, and as far as I know there is no way to turn it off. My only recommendation is try apex launcher since it has the option to turn it off.

Thanks that's helpful. I'm keeping my device 100% stock so I'll just have to put up with it unless someone comes up with a cure.

Before you start making incorrect sweeping statements & accusing people of lying, perhaps get your facts straight next time. Don't try & 'help' me again you're going on ignore.
I personally love the haptic feedback. I wish my 2012 nexus 7 had it. One of my favorite features.

As I mentioned I am not "suffering" from "bad vibrations" using Google Now Launcher (but otherwise completely stock). I didn't consider this to be the reason but who would have? At least I took some time investigating and finally realized why I am not experiencing this "issue" while others do and even offered a solution for those who are annoyed: Install Google Now Launcher (or any other launcher, though I don't know which one does "solve" that too)
It saddens me that some people get so offensive over nothing...
Wow, people complain about everything. Complaining about Samsung for adding a feature?:banghead:

For some of us, haptic feedback is not a "feature" it's an annoyance. At least give us the option to turn it off. It is the only reason why I switched from Nova to Apex on my Nexus 10.
