Stronger Vibration with Google Keyboard than stock - AT&T HTC One (M8)

So my go to keyboard has been Google keyboard for a while now and I love the haptic feedback but when I got my M8, I noticed that I hated the stock keyboard and that when I switched to the Google keyboard the haptic feedback vibration was easily 5 times stronger per keypress and this has made no sense to me whatsoever. I'm hoping I'm not the only one with this issue and that someone has found a quick fix.
This was happening bone stock but have since moved to s off unlocked rooted and Viper rom.

I just got this phone yesterday, I actually liked the stock keyboard..normally I use Swiftkey. But after using it for a bit I also noticed the haptic feedback was weak. I ended up switching to Swiftkey just so I could increase the haptic feedback...I could not find an adjustment.

Under advance in Google keyboard settings, in vibration section put 12ms. Will be like stock sense keyboard vibration.

Haptic on Android keyboard in Onyx 4.2

Hope this is a quick question. I can't seem to get the haptic feedback when using the Android keyboard on Onyx 4.2. I believe it's turned on in the settings (under Locale and Text), but no joy.
The vibration feedback does seem to work using the other keyboards that came with Onyx.

I've actually only had this issue while I was running a ROM with Motoblur and using Swiftkey x keyboard on pretty much a daily basis. With a blurrless ROM I haven't had this happen yet.
Are you using either by chance?
Im using blur and stock keyboard
....swiftkeyX seems small with this high res display is there a way to increase the keys?

You can change the key height to make them a bit bigger under advanced. Not sure for other keyboards.

[Q] keyboard lag...

Has anyone noticed the lag when typing or using the phone key pad? I had his with my infuse as well and its getting annoying. I really notice it when using the back space button. My HTC vivid is spot on....not sure if its a Samsung thing, keyboard skin thing, a setting that needs adjustments or a me thing.

I had lag on the Samsung keyboard, so I switched to the android keyboard. The android one is way better, I don't have any lag and I text pretty fast on this huge screen. I sure don't miss my iPhone.

A.I keyboard best hands down...
I want to like swift key, but when I tap on a word to fix it, it fixes the word and keeps the old text as well!!!
Disabling haptic feedback, text prediction and popup on keypress gets rid of the lag (and the motion sickness one gets from the screen popping around).

definitely the best keyboard I've tried. the prediction is amazing.
it rocks, but getting rid of the comma key kinda sucks IMO. i use commas all the time, and having to long press to get one really slows down my typing..
also, they took out the % of keyboard you swipe across to do gesture option, AND the miliseconds for long press! i use really short long presses so i'm super fast, so wtih the beta i type a lot slower :\
Not bad. But i still may perfer the stock keyboard over any.

Show your support for Swiftkey Themes
If you're interested, please post your support on my thread over at Swiftkey.

I started using this today and it's easily the most accurate keyboard I've ever used on a any smart phone ever. With any other keyboard after typing 2-3 words I would have to look up at what a typed for a second, to make sure nothing screwed up or a mistyped, then backspace and correct it. I've been using this all day and I just blow right through sentences as fast as I can think of the letter and the placement and as long as I am in the general area of the letter it predicts it easily.
Not only that, but you can choose landscape and portrait heights of the keyboard, and they have pre-installed themes (I hope this gets expanded, but the 6-7 themes they have are decent).
And this is only a beta? I'll easily pay for the final version when it's released.

Audio, I'm not sure since I don't use it. Haptic feedback, though, just go into the settings for that keyboard and change it to the max haptic feedback. Test it to make sure it works, then scale it back down. Mine wasn't working until I did that.
EDIT: Just tried the audio feedback, too and did the same thing. Had to turn it up all the way first. It's under settings, language and keyboard, swiftkey settings, advanced, then audio and haptic feedback.

Thanks for the tip - not having haptic feedback was killing me
anyone else getting the swift key popup when using the keyboard? Not complaining, just wondering.
EDIT*
nevermind. wife is getting it too.
I just wish it would keep the keyboard up instead of hiding it again.
I got audio to work when I unplugged my headphones but still have yet to get haptic to work however it is just a beta and I've been able to get by without the feedback it just feels weird.
*EDIT* I got haptic working finally

I HATE the HTC Keyboard!

I'm constantly being 'auto corrected' by this damned keyboard. Many of my texts invlove abbreviations and acronyms and they always get guessed to the nearest real word. I have to go back and re-type them back in. I don't want to have to add 60 words to my dictionary. Is there a way I can turn off auto-correct, or a different keyboard app you recommend?
Cool story bro
Download another keyboard like SwiftKey or Swype.

Man i feel your pain , couldn't believe the trouble i was having with the HTC ONES Keyboard also , i really wanted to kee a complete stock look , but i just couldn't take it anymore , so i just downloaded swype from the playstore i've acyually been using it for quite awhile now , on my s3 , and man what a difference , i would highly reccomend it SWYPE , it used to be free now its 1 dollar .................
I have always liked SwiftKey keyboard. Now it has flow built in so you can swype or text. This keyboard allows you to type with a lot of mistakes and it does a really good job fixing it. The swype keyboard in the play store works really well for swyping but typing normal on it doesn't work near as good. Depends on how you like to text more. I switch between both of them all the time.

I can't understand complaining about the keyboard on an Android phone when there are tons out there to change to.
The stock keyboard had Swype too....
I actually really liked this keyboard compared to my stock s3's.
I love this keyboard.. I have used all the other major ones and always come back to AOSP. But then I got the One and I love it. No issues and it's integrated with Google's voice keypad and is slick. No complaints here at all

yah, this key sucks so bad. auto correction is terrible. slow response, will even "backfire" when you send the text cause you to stop for a bit and retype. weak!!!
