Vibration on Z5 - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I just received my Xperia Z5 and I have a little issue. Before this one, I had a galaxy S3 in which you could control the intensity of the vibration. Is there a same option on the Z5 or do I need to root and install an app ?

Might be possible with some app, don't know which app.
Or just wait for the custom ROMs and kernels to support it!

Or you could just buy yourself a vibrator... >

Thank you, I've already done that. I mean to change the vibration when I receive a notification. But it looks like root is needed

Having same issue here, did you root it to get vibration intensity settings? it's quite annoying having the phone on the tables and the vibration so strong

No i did not root, i won't do it because of the garantee of the phone. I 'll just wait for marsmallow to see if it can be changed

I use the application lightflow to control the LEDS, there is also an option that you can set to change the vibration for individual notifications. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflow&hl=en

Strange observation, i made, when I had 4 different phones at home (display backlight bleeding was too strong, all were Z5P chrome), is that the vibration intensity, as well as the sound it produces, differ quite much from each other! One sounded like something's loose in there...

[Q] No notification vibration

Hi everyone. I installed the Liquid JB ROM last night and so far, it's been good. The only problem I've encountered is that my phone doesn't vibrate when I receive SMS in both sound and vibrate modes. It will vibrate for calls though.
Since vibrate mode is what I'm usually on, I'm hoping it's just a setting I may have missed. Any help?
Thanks!

Open up MMS, hit menu-settings-then scroll down to vibrate, it mostly likely says never. Change that
If that doesnt help check the settings under display and sound.

[Q] xperia tipo -> led not working in cm10

Hi, I am a new member here and a new user of cm10. I installed it yesterday in my tipo. everything is working well, except that the led light doesn't work. For example, it doesn't get red when the battery is low, or it doesn't get blue when i have a missed call or new sms.
Is that a bug in the firmware or something i did wrong? thank you.

^Not sure whether it's a bug or a CM10 feature..
Anyway, there's a simple workaround. Just download the Lightflow app from Play Store and manually set it for each!

[Q] How can I disable all vibrations?

I hate every vibration. Some apps use the vibration as haptic feedback or they give me notification with vibration even if it's disabled from settings. Is there a simple way to disable EVERY vibration? For example an app (obviously with root permissions) or an Xposed Module. An 'extreme' solution would be to operate at kernel level or to physically disconnect the vibration motor!
Thank you in advance, I've got a rooted Nexus 5 running stock Android 4.4.3 and Franco kernel.

Franco kernel has a feature to adjust the vibration level. Use 0 and vibrations will disappear I think.

Download FKU app from Google Play. There's a built in option.
Root your phone (if not done yet) -> flash franco kernel-> install francokernel updater from the playstore -> set vibrations amp to 0 (in Kernel Settings). Done!

Thank you guys! I'm new with this kernel and I didn't know the premium version of franco.kernel updater is full of features! I happily bought this app to thank Franco for his work and now... nothing vibrates!

Why not just disable vibration through settings. Much simpler. Nothing against FKU, as I have it, but it seems like overkill.

I've always kept vibration disabled in the Android settings, but some apps keep sending me notification with vibration and these apps don't let me customize their notification type (sound and vibrate). Other apps use vibration as their own haptic feedback. All these vibrations don't depend by Android system (and so by Android settings).
For example, Hangouts vibrates, but it has an option to deactivate that behaviour. Clash of Clans keeps vibrating on notifications. A lot of launchers vibrate when moving some elements. I just don't want that feature at all!

Well in that case I completely understand! That sounds insanely annoying.

Any way to change the vibration intensity?

Hello all!
I received my Idol 3 this saturday, and I'm quite happy with it for now (though I'm really hoping we get custom ROMs for it ^^)
I do have one issue though. I can't feel it vibrate unless it's in my hand or in my pocket. At work, I leave it on the table in silent mode, and with my previous phone, I could feel the vibration but it wouldn't disturb anyone. With the Idol3, unless my hand is 1mm from the phone and I'm expecting it, I don't feel it.
Is there any way to change the vibration intensity? I couldn't find anything in the settings.
Cheers,
Same problem here... with a case, if i hold it loosely, i feel it very very lightly, and in my pocket not at all. makes me think its just for haptic feedback... mine isn't rooted (yet) and i am planning to do so when CM12(.1) officially comes out. (if there isnt a fix, well then its bad luck )

there is a xposed module that will adjust the intensity of the vibration. i have root, xposed and the module on my idol 3 6045i, the module is called, " Vibration Tuner " it allows global vibration strength adjustment and also a five other specific vibration adjustments. this is nice if raising global is to strong on one of the other settings you can cut only it back.
Thanks for the tip.
I tried to install xposed, but it tells me that it's not compatible with android SDK 21 or my architecture (arm64-v8a)
How did you install it?
Cheers

Alert Slider Customization for OxygenOS 3

Hey Guys,
i guess the most of u know the app "Vibrate Mode" from the Oneplus 2. And maybe u also know this app doesnt work anymore.
It seems like there is a method to get those features by using tasker, but i dont like this, since it is still buggy.
Maybe we can reach a dev, who can bring the "Vibrate Mode App" features back to the Oneplus 3, using OxygenOS and root/xposed.
I think there are really really much people out there, which would like to have the ability to change the alert slider to "all - vibrate - silent".
Since this is the only logical function imo. :cyclops:
Please push this thread to heaven, so we maybe get some dev's to work on this! :good:
Cheers!
I've already contacted the devs that made the previous mods. No reply
Use this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nqk.vibratemodeextended
And in settings allow all contacts in alert slider > priority
Works for me
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk
If some dev happens to read this I'd love to have more features with the slider. For example best for me would be Normal - Flashlight - Silent etc.
Let's hope someone does this
There's already one xposed module (Alert slider) but it's old and not supporting op3.
for me VibrateMode works perfectly...

Im also having the same issue (with xposed).
Cmon Devs
Get this App working again... guess the most out there would be willed to donate u money for bringing this feature back.
This shouldn't be that hard for a Coder, since the device sources are out :-/

Same issue. When sliding back down from Silent to All, it remains in Vibrate :\
I can confirm Tasker works, and should remedy the issue of it remaining on vibrate. I'm now waiting for a way to reverse the slider, and I'm sure a free solution will come along soon enough too.
try the beta for oos3. it works for me

Are you sure it works? I have tried all the builds and I'm pretty sure this build was the closest as it worked correctly. However, every so often it doesn't go into vibrate mode or doesn't restore the volume level.
