Getting two notification tones when I get a text? - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This is confusing, using either the stock app or a different messaging app if the notification sound is different than the default. Such as the default notification sound is Whisper but I set in the SMS app to be Good News. If the screen is off it plays Whisper THEN Good news back to back. But if the screen is on it doesn't do that.. I rebooted and it stopped but then came back. wtf
This only seems to happen if the screen is OFF if the screen is ON it doesn't happen..
Edit: I think i found the issue. Device -> Accessibility -> Notification Reminders - Had this on but only to alert after 10min but it seems to be bugged and causes two alerts at the same time.

Notifications sounds not working

I'm using 6.2 rooted with gtalk, I get notifications but no sound. I tried setting up sound settings, but it always goes back to off (the slider for notifications going all the way low).
Anyone else having this issue?
Also on the top right it shows the sound icon with an "x" on it, meaning its on silent. When I play videos or games the sound is perfectly fine, just with notifications in having this issue.
There is this topic already existing. Try to search and find it.

[Q] Best Notifications Method for text and missed calls

Guys, I am looking for any suggestions you guys use for the best method to be notified of text and missed calls and such. It was always pretty good with the old iphone in such see the message swipe and then reply. I now really like the new little pop up that comes with the stock messaging app. But the popup is gone in about 2 seconds. Also do we not have any method to have notifications show on the lock screen. Just do not like at all to have to look in the notification center for this stuff. I do use Handcent texting mostly just for the pop up. But still not popup for a missed call. At least the S4 has a notification on the lock screen. I usually finally find a good set up but was wondering what most of you guys do. Thanks
You can try dashclock from play store. It's a widget that you can put on the lockscreen and it has a lot of extensions allowing you to see between others: clock, date, calendars, weather, alarm, gmail, whatsapp, sms, missed calls etc, battery info, etc...

Years ago I used Handcent solely because I could set recurring notifications. I've since gotten so attached to the little green droid that we now communicate via telepathy...or so it seems...
Why not rely on the notification light? I use Light Flow which not only lets you customize color but also duration and flash rate. So for me emails get a normal flash and turn off after 15 minutes. But a missed call is more important so I have it flashing red very fast and for a long time - like an hour so I'm sure not to miss it.
But this only works when screen is off of course.
I use Dynamic Notifications and Light Flow. The combo really works well for me and I like that I can schedule a sleep time so it doesn't light up the screen or the notification lights when I'm sleeping. DN will keep showing the notification at set intervals until I enter the app or clear it. Very simple, efficient, and customizable. LF is used mainly because the stock light settings did not have enough customizing ability.

Get Nils along with Nils+. This will give you very iPhone-ish lockscreen notifications. You can swipe them away to dismiss or slide the icon to launch the app. Nils is the main program and includes a widget (old method), and Nils+ will overlay the lockscreen with the notifications (new method, doesn't need a widget).
I personally use Nils beta from Google+: https://plus.google.com/communities/115156552435983276604?partnerid=gplp0
Use the links on the right side to Enable Tester for Nils and Nils+. Then you can download them. Nils is on the play store (no tester required), but you must be a Nils+ tester to use Nils+.
I really like the convience of getting a notification, not missing it and being able to reply quickly. As much so many other things the android system does betteras compared to IOS, This is were I struggle to get it better. The LED is great. Helps not miss anything. I have used Lightflow on and off a lot over the last year with a GS3. SO MANY mixed results. lights would work for some apss then not others and then getting the notification LED to cancel when message was cleared has always been a pain. Maybe need to give Lightflow a try on the G2. I'll check out Nils+ and Dynamic Notifications. For now I'm using Handcent which is working ok but I actually like the stock messanger. Thanks again!!!
if you don't mind paying, look up glowfly. it's a pop-up app for texting that works pretty well. I've been using it for about a year. I loved the stock g2 sms pop-up bc it didn't interrupt what you were doing, like if you're watching a video it kept playing... any other popup app, including glowfly, pause the video. but whatever. works better.

Getting rid of heads up notifications while phone is unlocked?

I'm not sure if this is an LG or Nougat thing, but it's seriously annoying. Whenever I use the phone and I get a notification of any kind, it pops down from the status bar (why can't it just go straight to the 2nd screen???) and persists for a few seconds unless I action it or dismiss.
Is there a setting within notifications or apps themselves to make them go straight to the 2nd screen?

Mine pop into the 2nd screen. What app is causing it? I know Textra was doing that until I disabled the pop up notification

Snapchat and Whatsapp are examples. What sort of notification settings do you have? Are you silencing any apps?

Not silencing anything, I just adjusted the Textra to not show the floating reply.
I don't use Whatsapp so can't speak to any settings in there and my Snapchat I have set to Vibrate only(turned wake screen off). Don't get a lot of Snapchat chats so never noticed if its a pop up notification or not

Weird - I found out that "Silencing" notifications is the only way to get them to not pop up... but then I don't get a vibrate.
System UI is a "hidden" feature of Nougat that LG decided to axe, which is extremely frustrating because it has the EXACT functionality someone needs to have full control over their notifications.

Yeah I want that system UI because in it you can do percent in battery notification so it's not next to the battery
It actually started with Marshmallow and was pretty popular due to the simple tweaks it can do that everyone wants. Unfortunately it seems to be more of a carrier issue with disabling it. Regardless, disabling peeking should be a basic option in settings from day 1. Not a super hidden feature in Andriod M and a above with no guarantee of staying. Textra is nice enough to have its own setting. Why other apps do not is baffling.
Someone finding a way to get to the System UI tuner settings would be amazing. As it is now there doesn't seem to be a way to turn off ONLY peeking/heads up notifications that I have been able to find. Maybe HeadsOff will be compatible with N before long.
I can't reply to any notifications in my notifications panel. How do I turn it back on?

S8 Phantom notifications

When I have a default notification sound set in my S8, I get a ton of notification sounds, but nothing in the notification bar. It's extremely annoying. I turned off all the app notifications I could, but it didn't help.
I also tried Do Not Disturb with custom exceptions so I would only get notifications for the apps I want, but they are still silent.
Is there a third party app that will mimic what Samsung's DND is supposed to be doing or a way to shut off the phantom notifications?
I'm really starting to hate this phone. For several reasons.
Suggestions
Hello,
I have not had the same issue as you but I've definitely had problems with things syncing on time or out of order. I'm sure you already have, but be sure to dig deep into phone notification settings but individual app settings as well to see if anything is off. If you run the internal app closer, does the issue still occur? Worst case scenario, you could factory reset your phone and see if that corrects the issue.

S10+ - Not receiving notifications

Howdy everyone!
I am having an issue with my S10 not displaying notifications. The only notifications that work is the Messages app. When the phone is on a black screen, the Message app is the only one that will display and notify.
I want my other apps... Nest, Wyze, Meross, etc to do the same as the messaging app.
I have googled for hours and tried almost everything i can think of.
Help?
Are your notification settings turned on for each app under settings then notifications?
Thanks for the reply.
Yes, I checked for each app.. I have even compared to the actual message app that came on my device.
Beginning to notice this issue also
Since the April Update this happened. Looks like its not an "issue" but a system change.
There used to be a setting where you could turn the messages on/off etc...
For instance, i like that my edge panel lights up, and i get the icon on screen that i have a message.
My wife likes that message to be displayed on the screen so she can see it without having to actually go to it.
Now there is a little messges overlay for the stock app that pops up, similar to FB messenger, I actually like this idea, but that seems to be a huge change and i cant find the setting to revert to the old way.
