WM6 Reminders & Notifications - General Questions and Answers

Folks I am desperate to find the system settings to totally stop any reminders.I have deselected all system settings for notifications.What will not stop is :
Powering up to show Reminder in Softkey area and flash the alarm icon.
Is there a way to swich reminders totally off.Machine switches on and then drains the battery - very annoying.So really I cannot switch it permanetly off without removing the battery.

alarm notification?

when my alarm goes off in the morning the "notification" has stopped popping up so i can disable it, I have to let the alarm go on for the entire time. How do i fix that irritating problem?
not to steal your thunder but i can't find a way to silence text message sounds as they occur.. any ideas?
OK, this is really pissing me off here, i cant stop my alarm now. it goes off and keeps repeating, i have to reset the phone to stop it. the "notification" window used to pop up and allow me to dismiss it or snooze for a selected periond of time.
First deactivate any alarms and go to settings/sounds & notifications and make sure that "notifications" is not selected, for now...
Then I sugest using "Check Notifications" program (google for it) to clean your memory from duplicated reminders and alarms
And then soft reset...
Let me know if that helped...
perhaps your problem is that under settings / sounds and notifications "notification" for alarm is NOT selected.. doesnt it have to be for popping up??
I have the same problem with the noticiations. I have to click them on every day. They turn off all the time. Any idea's
got it working, took what you guys said and put it together.
settings/all settings/personal tab/sounds and notifications/sound tab - then CHECK "events, programs AND notifications (alarms, reminders)"
then go to the "notifications" tab and go to the event drop down list and choose "reminders" its near the bottom, and make sure "display message on screen" is checked.
solved it for me, thanks for your help
I've done all that. My problem is that every day all my notifications get unchecked. Why?
perhaps you need to make those changes and then soft reset the phone?
other than that I have no idea unless your running a diff program for your notifications and it is conflicting with the stock notification settings
I noticed the same issues. Then, I switched to gAlarm and everything was better. It's a better alarm program anyway. Way better.

[Q] Tasker Help

Hi!
Can anyone help me out? I'm trying to setup tasker to do the following, but can't find the way to succeed:
1) Whenever I'm in my house, vibration is off. I would like to have all vibrations off but my first intention was to turn of vibration on notifications.
I considered "Cell Near" context to identify my zone > Action: Alert > Notify vibrate off; Exit task for this
Couldn't make it work. Still vibrates with the apps.
2) How can I set my LED notification light to turn off during specific time (Even while charging)?
3) Is it possible to recieve an sms or toast msg with hourly meteorology for the next 6h after alarm is switched off (not snoozed)?
This one is my Atlantis quest lol.
4) Is it possible to inactivate browser (chrome, to be specific) response within certain apps? The idea is to avoid accidental ad clicks in certain apps.
Sorry if you feel that this might be borderline to unethical... I'm not sure. Just don't answer if you feel it's wrong or impossible
Thanks!!

system ui tuner

Hi guys.
Just updated my galaxy s7 to android 7.0 nougat.
For some reason the alarm icon is constantly displayed in the notification bar.
How do I get rid of it?
I have heard about system ui tuner.
It should allow me to remove the icon. But I can't enable ui tuner.
I have hold down on the settings icon for 10 seconds. It still doesn't show up.
Please help. Thanks.
Deleted all alarms even if they are not active?
No I haven't deleted them. I need them. I just don't need to be reminded that I have alarms active.
Before I updated android the icon would first appear some time before the alarm went off.
Can't remember exactly how long before, let's say an hour.
Yea I noticed the icon stays there as long as you have alarms set, even if none are due

i use this program and get rid of the nfc icon too it works great
Had a play about with the alarms today, and as long as they are switched off (They can still remain set) then the icon disappears
Only when they are turned on, even if the time and date has passed, the icon will show

Notification issue

No matter what settings I change, notifications don't work properly on this phone, Gmail doesn't work at all and other apps only work sometimes.
I've locked into memory, turned off freeze, turned off powerbsave
Is there anything else I can do?
Seems absolutely crazy to have paid almost there same money as a Samsung and yet having such fundamental issues.
Thanks
I'm with you here... Very hit and miss. Screen off and sometimes it notifies and sometimes it only notifies when you pick up the phone and wake it. Screen on and mostly it's ok but WhatsApp for example, when the screen is on it notifies but sometimes won't use the custom notification tone i set. Tried playing with the power saving settings and setting all the messaging and email apps to stay on in the background and same result.
Phone and text messages do seem ok tho.
Yeah it's so intermittent and such a large issue for such a expensive device
Never had this issue since I got the device

I have same issues. This morning I checked battery settings and some that I moved to always run in background, had moved back to smart, meaning phone could kill them. Not sure how they had moved

CAn you share your Gmail settings please?
<notification settings)
I'm confused about the smart power saver option.
If I turn 'Smart Power Saver' OFF, then a new option appears. 'Custom Power Saver'.
If I go into 'Custom Power Saver' and I tap an app they appear to all be set to 'Smart Background Running(recommended)'. Is that the same as leaving 'Smart Power Saver' ON?
So I could just turn 'Smart Background Running' to 'Run in Background' for the apps I want, but leave the other apps at the default and it would be the same as 'Custom Power Saver'?
Is that correct?

That's how I read it, yes... but the issue is that its still hit and miss for notifications, even with run in background selected
Think I may have made a break through. In battery settings, choose/turn on 'intelligent power saver'. Then back into Settings and 'App Management' and 'App List' you can then set individual power settings for each app required, and it appears that these settings then actually 'stick', rather than randomly changing back to 'Smart Background Running'

OOS 12 upgrade- all app notifications turned off by default?

So I upgraded to OOS12, i did a factory wipe as well to start fresh. Noticed odd stuff, like I wasn't getting text message notifications, they were coming in but notifications were set only to show up in the status bar not notify me. Then weird stuff like my alarm didn't wake me up this morning- the clock app was set not to notify me at all!
I found the manage notifications, almost all apps were set to off. A few odd ones were on, Facebook was on, "My Files" was on...is there some reason why this is? I know there's a big push now to not have so many notifications on our phones...but it's very frustrating as I actually use my phone for work and productivity, and most of my notifications are important. I'd rather have them all on and turn off the ones that are annoying, but I don't see a setting?
