How to Remove Vibration When Typing on Redmi Note 10S: The Complete Guide

Vibrating the keyboard on the Redmi Note 10S can be a useful feature for tactile feedback, but it interferes with many users — distracting when dialing quickly, draining the battery and creating unnecessary noise. This is especially true for owners of smartphones with custom firmware or those who actively use instant messengers. In this article, we will discuss all possible ways to turn off vibration, from standard MIUI settings to hidden developer settings.

It’s important to understand that the Redmi Note 10S can be vibrating from three sources: the MIUI system keyboard, Gboard (if installed), or third-party apps like SwiftKey. We’ll look at each case separately, and we’ll give you recommendations for optimizing tactile response for those who don’t want to turn it off completely. If you have any questions after reading, check the FAQ section at the end of the article.

1.Switch off vibration in the standard MIUI keyboard

By default, the Redmi Note 10S uses the proprietary MIUI keyboard, where the vibration settings are hidden in the menu of additional settings.

1. Open any application to enter text (such as Messages or Notes).
2. Touch the gear badge (⚙️) on the keyboard to go to its settings.
3. Select option Additional settings → Vibration when pressed.
4. Move the slider to the off position.

If you don't have a gear icon, try holding the comma (,) on the keyboard, which is an alternative way to call the settings menu. Note that some versions of MIUI (e.g. 12.5.3 or 13.0.4) may have slightly different paths:

After you turn off, check the keyboard in several applications, sometimes the changes don't apply immediately. If the vibration is still present, move on to the next method.

💡

In the MIUI keyboard, you can turn off not only the vibration, but also the pressing sound. To do this, in the same menu, find the key sound and deactivate it.

2. Vibration setting in Gboard (Google Keyboard)

Many Redmi Note 10S users install Gboard as an alternative to the standard keyboard, in which case the vibration should be turned off separately:

1. Open Settings → System → Language and input.
2. In the Virtual Keyboard section, select Gboard.
3. Go to Settings → Sound when pressed.
4. Turn off the options: 🔄 Press vibration 🔊 Pressed sound (optional)

Gboard also has a hidden vibration intensity setting to find it:

1. From the Gboard settings menu, go to Additional Settings → Vibration.
2. Select the Vibration Intensity and move the slider to No.

If the vibration remains after these actions, check if Gboard is in conflict with the system settings.

Open Settings → System → Language and input

Select Virtual Keyboard → Keyboard Management

Activate the switch next to the Gboard

Press the default keyboard and select Gboard

-->

Important: On some Redmi Note 10S firmware (e.g. MIUI 12.0.8.0), Gboard can ignore vibration settings due to conflict with system services, in which case only turning off vibration at the Android level will help.

3. Disable vibration through Android settings

If the keyboard vibration is not turned off through the app menu, the problem may lie in the system settings. The Redmi Note 10S has two levels of vibration control:

1. Total system vibration (affects all applications).
2. Vibration when typing (keyboards only).

To turn off the vibration completely:

1. Go to Settings. → Sound and vibration.
2. Choose Vibration.
3. Turn off the options: 📱 Vibration on touch ⌨️ Keyboard vibration (if any)

On some versions of MIUI, keyboard Vibration may not be available, and activation of developer mode will help:

1. Go to Settings. → The phone.
2. Click 7 times on the MIUI version until you become a developer!
3. Back to Settings → Additionally. → For developers.
4. Find the item Turn off vibration or vibration when pressed and deactivate it.

⚠️ Attention: The developer menu has the option to turn off all vibrations, which will remove tactile feedback in all applications, including alarms and notifications, and only use it if other methods have failed.

4 Vibration problems after MIUI update

Redmi Note 10S users often find that after updating MIUI (for example, from 12.5 to 13.0), the vibration settings are reset, which is due to a change in the structure of the configuration files.

• 🔄 Restart your phone – sometimes it helps to apply the changes.
• 📲 Delete keyboard details: Go to Settings → Annexes → App management. Find your keyboard (MIUI Select the Warehouse. → Clear the data.

1. In the keyboard menu, find Additional settings → Reset settings.

If the problem occurs after a major update (e.g. MIUI 13 → MIUI 14), check the firmware version in Settings → About Phone → MIUI version. Some builds have vibration bugs – in this case, only a rollback or waiting for a patch will help.

If neither method works, try the alternative method through ADB (described in the next section).This is the last option, but it is guaranteed to turn off vibration at the system level.

5. Disabling vibration through ADB (for power users)

If standard methods don't work, you can turn off the keyboard vibration via Android Debug Bridge (ADB), which requires you to connect your phone to your computer, but it gives you 100% results.

1. Download and install ADB Tools on PC.
2. Activate USB Debugging on Redmi Note 10S: Go to Settings → About Phone. Press 7 times on MIUI Version. Return to Settings → Additional → For Developers. Enable USB Debugging.
3. Connect your phone to your PC and type in the command line: adb shell settings put system haptic_feedback_enabled 0 This command disables tactile feedback at the system level.
4. To turn off vibrations specifically keyboard use: adb shell settings put secure vibrate_on 0
5. Reboot the phone.

To return the vibration, replace the 0 with 1 commands above. Note that this method can affect the vibration in other applications (for example, in games or instant messengers).

⚠️ Attention: Misuse of the right ADB This can cause your phone to malfunction: 🔌 Cable USB Correct and supports the transfer of data. 🔒 On the phone is allowed debugging from this computer (a request will appear when connecting). 📱 The battery is charged at least 50% (to avoid shutdown during the process).

If the vibration remains after the instructions are executed, check if the specific keyboard settings block it, in which case you will have to combine methods, for example, turn off the vibration in both Gboard and ADB.

6 Vibration in third-party keyboards (SwiftKey, Chroom, etc.)

If you use alternative keyboards like SwiftKey, Chroom, or Fleksy, the vibration settings may vary.

1. Open the keyboard app (usually there is an icon in the app menu).
2. Go to Settings → Sound and vibration (or similar section).
3. Turn off the options: 🔕 Press vibration 🔊 Sound effects (optional)

For SwiftKey, the path will be:

1. Run SwiftKey from the app menu.
2. Go to Settings → Text Set → Vibration.
3. Choose No Vibration.

The Redmi Note 10S can also be set to adaptive vibration, which will only work when dialing slowly.

1. Install the Vibration Tuner app from Google Play.
2. Give him the right to change the system settings.
3. In the Keyboard Vibration section, select Adaptive Mode.

This solution is suitable for those who want to save tactile feedback, but make it less intrusive. Remember that third-party vibration adjustment apps can conflict with MIUI, so back up your settings before using them.

💡

If the keyboard vibration drains the battery, check the power consumption in Settings → Battery → Battery Use. If the keyboard consumes more than 5% of the charge, its settings should be optimized.
