I have this model of the Tab 8. I have the haptic feedback turned on at two places:
1) Settings > Sounds > Vibrate on Touch
2) Keyboard level
The haptic feedback (vibration) works intermittently. The haptic feedback should work when I press the back/home/list capacitative buttons, as well as when I type on the keyboard. And it does, but only at random, literally working one moment, and then cutting out the next.
I tried asking Acer support, but they were absolutely unhelpful. They basically told me to talk to Google. Has anyone else experienced any similar problems? I thought perhaps a power-saving feature was kicking in, but I don't see that feature anywhere in my settings.
