Request: disable vib on unlock.
- Thread starter stanrc
- Start date
Note: You will need a rooted phone to do this.
Steps to disable the phones vibrator:
1) Root your phone (steps available for most phones at xda-developers)
2) Download a terminal emulator
3) In the terminal emulator, enter the following:
su root
4) Agree to let the terminal emulator have root access (if applicable)
5) Enter the following into the terminal emulator:
cd /sys/class/timed_output/vibrator
6) Enter the following into the terminal emulator:
chmod 440 enable
Explanation:
These steps change the permissions on the vibrator device file to read only so bits cannot be sent to it causing the vibrator to go off. I don't know of an existing app that will do this. Hopefully some smart developer will create one.
