It's a label problem actually. I'm not able to find the other issue that talk 
about that but I'll re-explain here

If disabled (tone or vibrate) it fallback to the default Android setting.

Here the feature name should be "Force feedback".

I've two solution : either no customization at all and just relying on android 
settings. Or provide a more complex setting with Auto (use android native 
dialpad setting)/Force enable/Force disable

I think it is not a CSipSimple problem, because I don't get a vibrate feedback 
on the standard dialer as well when I enabled 'Haptic feedback' in Android.

IMHO you should remove the settings altogether and rely on the Android ones.
Less settings is better and you don't want to rebuild the OS ...

Yes could be a solution, but think about that : the android detection setting 
doesn't work for you...
Some manufacturer re-implement android and do non standard things. That's a 
shame but I have to provide ways for users to tweak things if needed.

Usually approach is to let the application extremely customizable but with 
hidden settings (the Expert setting mode).
So I think you are right, should not be a setting shown to mainstream users 
(and I should use "Automatic" by default), but probably worth to have an hidden 
setting in expert mode to tweak that; all the more so as it doesn't work for 
some users (or even on some devices -tablets- there is no option at all to 
change this setting).

Automatic by default and expert settings sounds sound.

Got is working (vibrate only):

Android: Touchtones -> uncheched; Haptic feedback -> checked
CSipSimple: Dialing tone feedback & vibrate feedback -> both checked

Not very intuitive as already concluded.

I would like to here dial tones when the phone is connected.  For instance when 
I have to enter codes to join conferencec calls.  No matter if I set this or 
not I don't get tones.  I selected to integrrate with Android dialpad and for 
normal non-sip calls I hear the tones, but for sip calls I don't.

@NexusOneCarter : feedback here is about the feedback you get in the dialer not 
the dialpad in call ;) .
I replied you on the other issue you opened
