whatsapp not respecting DND - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

As the title suggest, am having issues w/ whatsapp not respecting DND, in that audio + vibration notifications continue through DND hours. these alerts come from messages sent by both favorite and non-favorite contacts. my DND settings is:
type: custom
repeat callers: allow
calls from: contacts only
messages from: none
events/task alert: off
reminders: off
priority app notification: none (definitely not whatsapp)
am on the latest version of whatsapp but have had this problem on earlier versions as well. anyone else encounter this problem?

Having the same issue.. And Facebook messenger aswell. Can't understand why these apps force to work around this...
Edit: Sorted. I had in DND settings allowed custom notifications, but had the message from favorites aswell turned on that was causing the issue in whatapp and messenger. Turning off for messages (but left for calls) it seemed to sort it out

No notifications come through when phone is standby

Hello, i dont get any notifications when my phone is on standby mode.
this includes:
Email
SMS
Alarms (windows alarms)
notifications for calendar events.
how does i fix?
okay, so try going to: settings - all settings - personal - sounds and notifications. There thick what you want. With the SMS notification while on stand-by, there is a bug which HTC solved (releasing a hotfix - found on htc.com). Tell me if you have any more problems and if you have solved these problems
No calemdar notofocation when the pin is set-up
Hi,
I have a similar problem. When the phone is on standby and locked (eg. after 15 min) I can not get any calendar notification working.
They all show up when I wake up the phone and enter my code.
The only workaround is to disable the lock, but I need it to be set-up (company policy)
Note that other notifications are ok:
- Call
- SMS (after installing the patch from HTC)
- Alarm
Thanks

Any progress on this?, I have installed the official htc hotfix for sms, makes no difference for me.
While the sms not notifying is a frustration, I could probably live with it but...
Alarms are the real problem for me... I can't rely on the device as an alarm clock as the alarm simply doesn't sound until I bring it out of standby with the power button.
Any cure for this, is it hardware or software? do cooked roms exhibit same behaviour?
P.
I have the same problem. I have downloaded the fix from HTC, but still my email does not play a sound (the LED flashes though).
I have not checked other things (SMS, alarms etc.)
It would seem VERY silly if the alarm doesn't sound!!!!
For e-mail, you have to go and turn on the notification for that in the sounds and notifications settings,
Settings-->All Settings-->Personal-->Sounds and Notifications-->Notifications-->Event:Messaging: New e-mail message
And select it to play a sound of your choosing.
it is not switched on by default, in this case that is good for me, if I got a notification alarm every time I got a new e-mail, my phone would be sounding alarms pretty much all the time....
The alarm problem not waking from standby, I have posted in another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544112 a possible cure, working for me for 2 days at least...

Vibration problem with Whatsapp and FB Messenger

With the normal profile:
FB Messenger: vibration works
Whatsapp: no vibration (it works only if I select the short vibration from the app settings)
Vibration profile:
Whatsapp: vibration works
FB Messenger: no vibration (but it should vibrate)
Mute profile:
Whatsapp: no vibration (how it should be)
FB Messenger: vibration works (but it should not!!!)
Why is everything so strange?
Thanks
I was going to post a similar topic until i found yours;
I have similar behaviour with Whatsapp.
Sound on -> no vibrate
Sound off -> vibrates
change vibrate to long or short within whatsapp and vibrate works in either settings. This happened after last OTA
I'm on ME2 fw
im having some issues with whatsapp notifications aswell.
i get a message and it vibrates with sound,
after (when my chat group) gets spamed, i get no vibration or notification.
on my iPhone i used to get a notification/sound ever time a message came through.
I don't know how but the problem with FB messenger is gone. The problem with Whatsapp is't so big.:good:

Calendar Notification Tone issue

Since abt 5-6 years I have been using Business Calendar 2 app for setting up reminders for events & tasks.
But in Mi A1 the notification tone does not sound up. Phone vibrates & the reminder pops up if the relevant setting in BC2 is enabled. This issue is existing since the day i bought it.
I tried several other apps like DigiCal, Calengoo, aCalendar.... But still no notification sound.
Notification tone works perfectly in Gmail, WhatsApp, Sms..
What could be the solution ?? Is this happening with others too ??
Mods pls delete this thread. Notification was blocked in app settings. Issue is now resolved.

Skype chat notification problem

Hi,
I am having one weird issue with skype app installed on P9 lite. Whenever there is a new chat, I receive the chat notification banner both on lock screen and notification panel but there is no ringtone and vibration. I have tried many things like, uninstalling-reinstalling, clearing app data, settings change but nothing works.
The strange thing is that when I receive a call on skype, the vibration and ringtone works fine. The problem is only with the chat notification ringtone. All the other apps are producing the ringtones perfectly fine.
Does anyone else had the similar issue?

No Whatsapp notifications (whatsoever)

Hi,
I have a redmi k20 on Chinese ROM. I receive no whatsapp notifications at all. I had this problem on miui 10 and it persists in miui 11. This issue is driving me insane.
I have granted all permissions for whatsapp, disabled battery saver, enabled notifications and locked the app in memory. I have also cleared app data and reinstalled whatsapp multiple times. It's very weird. When I open whatsapp, any new received messages appear. Also, if I'm in a whatsapp chat and I receive a message from a different conversation, it closes the chat I'm in and I lose whatever I was typing.
Any advice?

MIUI always close apps that use too much memory, you need an AOSP ROM to "fix" this
Put the original theme.
or test various themes until it works.
themes don't work well with lookscreen

How to fix MIUI push notifications in 2019
MIUI has come a long way in the last two years. And while the interface has received a much-needed facelift and a trove of new features, it still has a few lingering issues. Push notifications continue to be a significant problem in MIUI thanks to Xiaomi's aggressive memory management, but there is a workaround. Here's how to fix push notifications in MIUI 10.
Open Settings from the home screen.
Scroll down to the Apps sub-menu.
Select Permissions.
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
Tap Autostart.
Choose the apps that aren't sending push notifications.
Toggle the slider to ensure the apps always start in the background.
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
If you don't see a particular app listed in autostart or are still facing issues with notifications, you should disable the built-in battery optimization. Doing so will ensure that the app isn't being restricted by MIUI's memory management.
Open Settings from the home screen.
Scroll down to the System & Device sub-menu.
Select Battery & performance
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
Tap Choose apps.
Select the app that isn't showing notifications.
Choose No restrictions.
How to fix push notifications in MIUI 10
Choosing the No restrictions mode is the best way to prevent MIUI from killing off an app running in the background. This is also the method that has worked for me over the years with Gmail and Slack. So if you're having problems with push notifications, this is the best way to get around the issue.

Interesting question but is the sound set ON for the notifications? Just curious because some of the apps on my phone had it muted and set to vibrate only so I had to go to Notifications section find the needed app and set the sound ON.
And the other thing is that Whatsup is blocked in China maybe Chinese ROM is missing some service required by Whatsup or preventing it to work properly, no clue can't say.
