The haptick feedback on my four keys are so slite it is barely noticed. Is there any way to increase this setting? There is a vibration setting on bottom of the setting page but does not do anything to these keys. My hands are big and beat up, I can barely feel the feedback from any of those keys. There must be a way to adjust those keys, Is this the normal feel for these keys or do I have a bad phone? I can feel a very slite vibration but nothing like I feel on any other of my phones. I have mostly HTC's phones, this is my first Samsung in a long time. Any help would be welcomed.
Thanks,
Vinny

Go to settings, sound and scroll down to feedback. The last option is vibration intensity and you can edit from there.

Hi,
All previous iterations of android phones could be unlocked without using the touchscreen, eg. by tapping the menu button twice. Problem is that the menu button is capacitive on the Nexus. You can't press it with gloves, nor can you slide unlock the screen.
The trackball was useful because you could minimally operate apps with it, like skipping tracks in the music app..
Could it be possible to develop an alternate unlock mecanism, such as drawing a large circle using the trackball ?
I look forward to not having to take off my gloves to skip tracks when skiing
Use your nose jk it would be nice to have another way to unlock.
Or even map it to the volume button (while still requiring the slide-to-unlock) and I'd be happy as a clam. The power button is just hard to reach for some, sometimes.

...always looking out for the dwarfs of the world. very nice of you!
I'd be happy to be able at least wake up the phone with the trackball!
That would be perfect to me...i would assume its just some directory setting..does anyone know how to achieve this?

I did actually contemplate that, but my pride talked me out of doing it on a crowded ski slope.
Probably my biggest con for the phone...unlocking it requires pressing the power button. Someone please hack this!
I'm trying to find the way to wake up with the trackball, but not found
I want to group same number or contact on call log (like as Iphone) also
This is a fantastic idea. I am honestly worried about wearing out the power button. I don't find this a flaw with the nexus, but I would love the option to turning on the screen with one tap and unlocking the phone with a second tap. I know this will make a lot of people happy. can someone please do it?
i'd love a "trackball-on" feature - the g1 could be activated with every button on it.
this was good to unburden the power-button.
There is an app that doing that...Lock 2.0
rename Lock 2.0.zip to Lock 2.0.apk

It costs money, but if you buy the ICE Lockscreen (By appventive), it lets you wake up the screen with the volume rocker. Its also a good thing to have just in case you get into an accident or something happens to you.
This is a feature I have wanted to see since I received the N1 ... I would love to see a Trackball -On feature ......... almost like, I hate to say it .... but how the iphone unlocks.

Then Lock 2.0 would be ideal for you.
I have always hated how we need to press the power button to lock and unlock this thing. Makes me feel like I have an iphone. My G1 and mytouch had the power button at the bottom so it was not a problem.
If I could develop the app I would, but unfortunately I do not know how.

Does that prevent the phone to sleep?

Edit: I just tried it. Even the trackball works!
Update: It's buggy. Doesn't work every single time. Sometimes you'll have to press Power first.
Does this prevent the phone to sleep?
i just tried lock 2.0 and i guess it does the job but its so hideous! none of the themes are formated for the N1. so the background will only reach 75% but it does allow you to turn the screen on via volume switch. if they can do this, then im sure someone else can do this too. idc if i have to pay, i just want my normal 2.1 lock screen and just be able to use the volume or trackball. someone make this happen please! if we ask enough it might just happen
Tried Lock 2.0. Its ok, seem to have some bugs. password protect is a joke. If you press the trackball to wake up, all you have to do is tap the home key and it goes home bypassing the lock screen. You can do that with or without the password protect on. I think it needs some work to be compatable with the nexus one.
Even better if someone could create something, a device, or something so that I could unless my N1 with only the power of my mind itself! thnik2unlock.apk kgo
I use "screen mode widget" from the Market
Can a dev possibly do some tweaking on the Samsung keyboard? I'd really love an option for turn vibrate on and off, after hitting a number and then space going back to the letters part of the keyboard. Any other suggestions? Thanks guys.
I'm pretty sure you can turn off the haptic feedback already.

Thanks man. I think the samsung keyboard is a really good keyboard just needs a few tweaks and it would be great.
I'm not sure if the home button on my GS2 is normal... Does anyone elses click loudly when you press it? It just feels strange and I want to make sure it's not faulty...
Cheers
Its a difficult to guess what 'loud' is in this case, mate. But most of the time, buttons need to be worn in for them to work smoothly.
I've only had the GS2 for about 5 days. Hmm, but I was just wondering if all the GS2 click when you press in the home button...
Thanks
Mine clicks. It's a pretty clicky button. But half as loud as a mouse-click.
That sounds about right then. Also if I apply pressure onto the button and don't full depress it, there is a little bit of movement in the button, this is what made me think at first maybe the button got dislodged somehow? But I wasn't sure... Hopefully it's OK.
Cheers
can we adjust the click sound volume level? or disable it (no silence all)?

If you remove the battery you see a small knob which you can rotate. By default it's on position 7 (from 1-10). Which is rather loud. You can turn it anti-clockwise to 1 (least amount of clickety-noise), but if you turn it a bit further (there will be some resistance) you can fully disable the sound the Home button makes.
Next to the knob is also a little switch with which you can disable the Home button lag. By default it's on "Lag" but I usually turn it to "Lagfree". It also made my homescreen-switching smoother, but I think that might be a placebo, not sure.
Hope this helps.
Hello,
My unit has not so such tuning features for home button (and i would love it), very smooth for my taste...
Just got my galaxy S3 and im loving every second of it, BUT
the vibration is so "low" i cant feel it vibrate in my pocket compared to the HTC HD2 at all. is this normal. is there any way to make the vibration "feelable" if thats a word.
i had at least 7 miss calls with vibration on and i didnt feel none of them at all. you may say put the ringtone on. but i was in a situation where putting a ringtone on would not be right so i put it to vibration mode and i didnt feel jack all.
even with the ringtone on the vibration cannot be felt! so disappointed
any tips would help

You must have a faulty device... if anything my device has to much of a strong vibrate!

Pretty sure you can turn up vibration intensity in settings.

Settings --> Sound --> Vibration intensity. If you're still missing them on max intensity make some longer custom vibration notifications for your apps, be less likely to miss those (inbuilt feature).

Hi everyone,
I'm a bit more than a week in with the Pixel 6, coming from a phone that has an actual hardware ring/vibrate/silent switch. I miss that switch dearly.
Is there a fast way to silence the Pixel 6? I'm aware you can press the volume key, then choose the "silent" icon, but that takes some time/fiddling, and it DOESN'T SILENCE THE PHONE. Only silences notifications/rings. My old phone when silenced also silenced media, everything except alarms.
Invariably I'm doing something at the table or whatever and an ad comes on at volume. Sure, I can hold the volume down key, but it takes a bit for that to gradually silence the media.
What I want is to be able to double tap the volume control or something similarly fast and have it instantly silence everything (except alarms), similar to how the physical sound off switch worked on my OP6T.
Is there a solution for this? I'm fully stock, not rooted, not planning to root.

There are times I feel I should have grabbed an 8T for $400, but i wanted for once to experience a pure google phone. I knew it was going to be thick and heavy when I bought it but I didn't realize how much I would miss that switch.
That said, I'm enjoying the Pixel otherwise, and am pretty settled in with it. I've made the transition and don't plan to send mine back. This is a pretty nice phone!

Settings > System > Rules. Enable and use the "silence phone" rule. It's location-dependant so there is no toggle like what you are used to.
EDIT: For finer control than what Google provides, Tasker or a similar app should work for you.

Hmm. I'm not sure I understand how this is supposed to work. I don't want the rule to start when I reach a location or connect to a network, I just want to be able to quickly tell the phone to silence all sounds (other than alarms of course) at specific times like if I see an ad loading up. And I would want to be able to undo the silencing quickly too.
I went into the rules and tried enabling, but it's all about doing things when I reach a location/wifi spot.
I did double check my gesture settings, to make sure the Flip to Shhh was on... it is... I Think the shushing just applies to notifications and ringing, not media (ad sounds are controlled via media sound level).

THANK YOU
I'm breathing a huge sigh of relief. I set mine so a single tap of the volume down mutes the media volume. Problem solved! And I like the option to disregard button mapper when the volume control is being used manually.
OK now! My biggest beef with this phone now fades into the sunset.
My initial reason to install was torch which I've mapped to volume down. Great app and @flar2 is a member on here so give him a thumbs up
