In this file there's a definition for the vibrator:

Code:
SUBSYSTEM=="input", KERNEL=="event*", ENV{ID_INPUT}=="1", ENV{ID_PATH}=="platform-vibrator", TAG+="uaccess", ENV{FEEDBACKD_TYPE}="vibra"

Maybe it's enough to uncomment this line with "#".

I tried commenting that line out. It works to shut down all vibration notifications. Which is nice.

Not so nice: it also seems to shut down ALL notifications from the phone. No ringing for calls, no tones for texts, nothing.

I'm not sure why some incredibly ordinary functionality simply does not seem to appear on the pinephone. Being able to assign ringtones to individuals and groups, being able to silence ringtones, being able to turn vibration on and off. It's been two years now. *Please* do it!

I'd be really really grateful for a solution to this. I don't mind editing config files. But on the larger issue of the phone's usability for the general customer, this really needs to be easy to do in the phone app (or Settings) itself. It's not simple enough for me to have ever found it Sad
