Yeah, the proximity sensor is on even when disabled
Press the "Thanks" button below if I've helped.

Is there any way to disable the haptic feedback on the bottom four soft keys. I hate getting that vibration whenever I use them.
+1 I also dislike the vibration but cannot find a setting to disable it.

@aaurnab
Check the development forum. There is a thread explaining how to accomplish this.
There's actually 2 threads ATM about this. One disabling it through the framework-res.apk and one through the android.policy.jar file. So far only the first one has worked for me.

can you give the link of framework-res.apk ...
it's quite simple guys without getting too tech.
2 places to look:
1. Sound settings - disable Heptic feedback
2. Input settings - disable vibration
Did it for me.

Both these settings are not available in Atrix
Turn off haptic feedback on softkeys
Hi all, had my atrix (rooted) nearly a week now on Orange UK and one of the most annoying things for me was the haptic feedback on the soft keys, i couldn't find a setting in my phone to turn them off, so i scoured this forum looking for ways to do it, and it looked like the only way was to alter the framework which i'm not very comfortable in doing. So i went through the android market and came across this amazing app called VIBRAFIX ( must be rooted ) which allows you to turn the haptic feedback on the soft keys off, but also gives you the option of keeping vibrate on for your calls, sms and alarm clock. Hopefully this will save a me a bit of juice in my battery aswell.

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?

No worries, either let the thread die, or click on the report post button and ask a mod to move it....
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.
Cheers.

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?

I agree.
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.

Cant remember for the life of me how i did it, but I turned off my capacitive button leds. Could have been via a patch or changing some file or something, but I cant find the thread that it was in.
Anyone remember where to find it?
I'm on a stock ROM, and yes I have searched high and low already. Id rather not have to flash a stock ROM over what I already have if possible.
Settings > Display > Touch key light duration

There's no need a patch, just enable/disable it via settings, can't remember where but check display settings.

Thanks guys, there I was over complicating things again.
We are developing hardware for Android mobile products.
We are using Samsung Galaxy mobile running on T-Mobile & AT&T cellular networks.
We notice during telephone calls, either dialing outgoing or incoming calls, the display turn off almost immediately when the telephone calls started.
Is there anyway to keep the display turn on all during the entire telephone calls?
I understand you can make all the hard buttons to wake up your phone by modify rhis register,
HKCU\Control Panel\Keybd\
and create REG_DWORD "DefaultKeyLock" Value "0"
Please tell me step by step instruction on how to modify this register inside Android?
thank you
Phone turns off due to proximity sensor...best would be an app to toggle proximity sensor...use that and phone wont go black
Using XDA premium through A5
Press thanks on help
use some proximity toggling app that would seal the deal...
Our why not just on brightness change it to "always on" our never sleep or something like that :c
Sent from my SGH-T999
to set display at the highest brightness and have the display always turn on will likely cause high battery consumption.
That must be better way to keep display on during call to watch the minutes duration of the call.

Just pull out the proximity sensor!
This kind of thing happens on my wife's phone. She has a Samsung galaxy s iii. When she tried to check her voicemail the screen shuts off as soon as the call starts and she always has to press the power button to turn it back on to type in her password. Thought it was just her phone being weird, but maybe I will have to check to see if her proximity sensor isn't working correctly.

Are you saying the vibrations stop working all together?
Sent from my D6503 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I never mentioned vibrations!!!
I should have explained it a little better though
when you make or receive a call and you are on the phone the screen turns off and disables all button presses because the proximity sensor is covered
but even though the display is off and the sensor is covered you can still press buttons whilst on the phone
so far I have tried sending a text
cut people off
muted the phone
put the phone in to airplane mode
added events to my calendar
and more
all this with the side of my face while in a call
