Notification issues with CyanogenMod - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've had this problem since 10.1 and it continues on 10.2
In messaging custom notification tone and vibrate settings do not stick at all. They stick in messaging settings but when a SMS arrives it buses the Android default notification tone and default vibration pattern.
In GMail my device vibrates with incoming email although that option isn't checked in GMail settings. Also when I delete a message via the option in the notification itself the device alerts me again via sound and vibrate like a new message is coming in even though i'm deleting a message.
I think there is a bug in CMs notification enhancements that doesn't play well with these two apps.
Anyone else having this or had it and have a cure?

I have the same issue on Cyanogenmod 10.2 for my Galaxy S4. I've been searching for a resolution or someone else with the problem and this the only thread I've been able to find.
What's strange is the notifications seem to work fine at first, but after some time passes I get the annoying alert on delete from notification bar issue. I also want to set my Gmail to not vibrate and have a silent alert tone, but it doesn't want to stick just like you said.
I've also tried stock Android 4.3 as a test and the notifications work fine, so I think this is just a Cyanogenmod issue? Have you had any luck resolving this?

I figured it out. It has to do with the profiles option in cyanogenmod. There's an option for Gmail notifications by default. If you disable profiles, the notification settings in Gmail are followed. Otherwise, they will be overrided by the settings in cyanogenmod profiles.

Had the same problem. I just deleted the gmail app group from the profile settings and it works fine now. Thanks for posting to solution

Thanks

I'd been fighting this for a week, changing the default messaging app, setting different sounds in all apps. I never thought about the profiles affecting it. Finally, I have control again.

Been annoyed by a similar problem (no notification sounds at all, even when volume was turned up) until I found this thread. Simply disabling all profiles from the CM settings seems to have cleared this up! Thanks for the tip!

[Q] Changing Text Message Service Issues

Ok, this is my first Droid phone, so I'm still trying to figure it all out.
My default text message app is driving me crazy. It randomly decides to scroll up and down when it feels like it.
So, I've installed ChompSPS to use as my messaging app. No more random scrolling, so I'm happy.
The problem is, I can't figure out how to disable the default service notification.
I've been through settings -> sounds -> notifications but all I can find is a setting to change my ringtone for everything, and I can't find a general page for notifications.
So, how do I disable the default text message notifications?
i have some friends that used Handcent SMS on different phones and ran into the duplicate notification problem as well. i guess this post doesn't help much since i have no solution to offer, but just so you know, you're not the only one who's had trouble with this.

Go into the stock messaging app settings and turn off notifications there.
Thanks

The solution is often simple, isn't it?
Thanks.
Also, fyi: this is an android phone. Not a Droid phone. Droid is a line of phones in the same since that Galaxy S is a line of phones. Android is the operating system that runs all these phones.
And the other user is correct. Change setting in the OEM messaging app to keep from having duplicate notifications.

Notification sounds stop working. (Bug found)

Is anyone else having an issue in which notification sounds stop working after about an hour after the Xoom was booted?
I have rebooted it several times and keep having the same issue. After about an hour, the notification sounds no longer play, but the notification light will still blink. The clock alarm notification sounds still work at all times though.
I have tried changing the notification sounds on the apps but it has no effect. When it happens, all app notification sounds stop working. The only unaffected app is the Alarm Clock sound.
Reason (Bug found):
Ok, so after a lot of testing. I found what causes this bug.
I have 2 gmail accounts that I use for mail. So I set up 2 GMail Widgets on the home screen. One for each account, obviously. The problem happens after both accounts have received mail and the mail is accessed through clicking on the mails in the widgets to bring up the full gmail client. It doesn't matter if the accounts have both received mail at the same time or hours apart.
I did find that as long as you never open gmail through the widgets, the notification sounds keep working. I sent myself mails about once an hour to both accounts for over 8 hours using gmail on a PC. During this time, I simply listened for the notification sound after each email was sent. Every one worked perfectly, until after I opened the a mail item in each of the gmail accounts on the Xoom using the widgets. Then, I no longer received the notification sounds.
Now during all the times of testing, the notification light always works. Regardless of the notification sound. Also, sound within applications were never affected. However, when the notification sounds stopped going off due to this gmail widget bug, none of my applications notification sounds worked anymore.
After the notification sound bug kicks in, the only way to remedy it is to shut down the tablet and reboot.
Reason found and put into post above.
I have the opposite happening to me. My light won't blink on Gmail notifications but the sound works just fine. I've done multiple reboots too. Good find on what may be causing the bug though.

I am currently experiencing this issue but I dont have two gmail account widgets and after a reboot I still do not get any sound notifications.
I do have a gmail and an email widget. Perhaps I will remove both and reboot.
I am running Team EOS 3 (latest nightly)
Thanks

[Q] No Email Notification Sound

Hi. My MT4G is rooted and unlocked, running gingerbread 2.3.3. My problem is that I have no email notification sound, although it is set to alert me. I am using the stock email client, and would really like to stick with that due to the integration with contacts and faves. I have tried every angle I could think of: global settings, email settings, my modes, etc. Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
Many thanks.
Same issue
What happened to the option to set the email notification sound? Right now it defaults to using 'Alpha' as the alert. However, I didn't even set 'Alpha' as the system notification sound either.

[Q] No SMS notification at all--sound or icon

A few days ago, I've lost the sms notification for the default Samsung Messaging app. If I install Go SMS, I get notifications, but not with the default messaging app, which I prefer.
I've checked all settings and have notifications turned on, but still not getting any notifications. It's not a volume issue--volume is at 100%. I don't get a sound or an icon. I've searched the web and found that others are having similar issues, without solution.
I must have turned something off or something conflicts with it, but I've tried everything that I can to fix it and am at a loss. Any ideas?
Thanks!
Have you definitely gone into sms then settings and made sure notifications are on ? If so I'd try turning off the notifications thrn closing up sms then going back in to turn on. If no go maybe uninstall go sms for now and try again

Tried all of the above and still no go.
Do you have something else set as your default message app?

Turning off email notification?

Just picked up the G2 yesterday and I love it for the most part. Hoping some of you can help me on one thing.
I generally keep my phone on vibrate mode and want notifications for text messages, calendar reminders, etc... but not when I receive a new email. I've checked my Gmail settings, and vibration is turned off there. However, my phone still vibrates for every email.
I've gone through every general setting I can, but I can't seem to figure out how to turn this off. Anyone have an answer?
it's not under the general settings, its under the account settings.

Gmail account settings? If so i already have those settings set correctly. If not which settings are you referring to?
Anybody else? I'd really like to solve this issue.

I went to accounts under settings and removed my gmail from the Email accounts. There is no reason to have gmail there when you can just use the gmail app... kinda annoying. Then you can just have gmail give you notifications when you get a gmail.. like it should be?
I know this thread is a bit old, but I still can't figure out how to stop Gmail from vibrating every time I get an email. Has anyone figured this quirk out?

If you are using the Gmail App then go to the gmail app settings > click your email> then "Inbox sound & vibrate" > uncheck vibrate
That's just it though, it still vibrates even when vibrate is not checked.

Anyone figure this out? I keep my phone on vibrate also and gmail vibrates every time even though it's unchecked.
Did you ever figure this out? I am also being affected by this problem.
Hi guys, yes I managed to make the incredible annoying vibrating to stop each time I get a new e-mail or message (sms).
Go to the Message-app - in the right corner (on the phone) press Menue - Settings - Turn off "Vibrate".
Now you should get no vibrations at all when receiving sms/mms or email (I have a Sony Xperia P).
this worked for me

Open gmail icon then in menu mode, look for settings under label settings. Not sure why it's there but it is. Open label settings and choose the device notifications
Sound, and under sound choices choose Silent. It's at the top of my lg choices. I can't think why they combined text and email. Who in their right mind want a d
ing every time an email comes in!??
