As the title says really, I cannot get my Hero to vibrate when I get a text message. In Messages > Settings > Vibrate, the option is ticked but even if I untick / restart / retick it still doesn't work. I've also tried pressing the volume button down to vibrate mode and back again but that makes no difference.
I've even tried working with Handcent and yet I still cannot get the vibrate working. Everything else works such as the status bar notification but that's it.
The vibrate part is definitely working for phone calls and other apps so I don't think that it's a hardware problem. Any idea what could be causing it?
Cheers.
Hi there,
I'm having an issue with my S5 which is starting to become problematic. When I set my phone to vibration mode and I am called, the phone only vibrates once (shortly) and then goes silent. It does not keep vibrating. This is an issue as my phone is always on vibrate whenever I am at work and I'm missing a lot of calls due to this.
I've tried setting a custom vibrate pattern to no success. When sound is on I can choose to 'vibrate when ringing', but this option is greyed out when I set the phone to vibrate only.
Is this the intended way of functoning? Can I change it somehow? Thanks in advance!
Just upgraded to Nougat and noticed that pop-up notifications was turned bank on. When you go into notification settings the option to disable them is missing. Does anyone know how to disable them now?
I am running stock with a locked bootloader.
this is driving me nuts. even if you disable notifications in any sms app, the phone wakes. somewhere that has to be a place to turn it off...
No one has any ideas?
same here, any solution?
I've put Do Not Disturb mode on when I'm driving, so that I don't get disturbed by notifications (e.gm whatsapp, Facebook, messages) popping up in bubbles at the top of the screen.
It's simply doesn't work - they still pop up! (albeit it doesn't vibrate).
I've selected the "hide visual notifications" option (see screenshot) but it doesn't work either way.
Anyone else have this issue? Any potential solutions?
Mine still give audible notifications in the night when it should be on do not disturb!
I have a much larger issue. My Galaxy S8+, I will turn on the setting to keep alarms on, one night it will work and the next night it won't so my alarm never goes off in the morning. Therefore I stopped using DND, turned all the setting to off even deleted the days it will operate to none and the setting STILL comes on every night at 1030. I go in to check my settings and they are all back on to the day before. Android is starting to get pretty poor with its updates.
if your display is on and in an app while in dnd calls will still come through if youre display is off they will not come through if youre display is on but not in an app the calls will not come through. No work around i can find as of now
This is so typically Samsung.. They finally fixed it, but only when the screen is off and when on the home screen
Ugh.. My Do Don't Disturb is dysfunctional.
If I'm listening to an audio book, watching Netflix or jamming to my tunes and someone calls what ever I'm listening to/watching pauses while the phone silently rings that's B.S. DND means exactly that DND. All calls should go straight to VM. when DND mode is on. Otherwise I can just turn the darn ringer off. DND is worthless.
For me works well. Only when the screen is off, like iPhone. Have you make the settings propperly? Because you can put if you want that calls don't show on screen.
A similar issue was fixed by hard-reset. Have you tried a factory reset? Factory reset stepMod Edit
Is there still no fix to this?
It seems like a pretty important malfunction and is super frustrating every night.
Anyone manage to get it working properly using Tasker?
On my S4, then S6 Edge I had a Tasker profile to turn on Do Not Disturb automatically when I plug my phone in to charge at night, and it worked a treat.
Not with the S8, no matter what I try, it still vibrates and activates the LED notification, even though it is showing as Do Not Disturb mode on, and in the settings I have ticked all the options to hide notifications when the screen is on, and off, and set no exceptions, or alarms only with the same result.
Any ideas?
Since upgrading to miui11, I have notification problem with Whatsapp:
I want in silent mode to get a vibration only if it's a direct message. In case it's a group message I want only to get a notification but without a vibration. I configured this both in the application setting and the phone setting - but still getting vibration for both of them (before upgrading it worked just fine).
Any help?
