Anyone else having issues where the phone beeps during silent mode?
Steps:
-Put phone in silent mode
-Browse some sites or wait for any system notifications
-Phone will keep beeping like crazy
Never mind, I found the issue to be related to Setting Profiles lite where it keeps switching profiles from silent.

So, I just got my Nexus S (Yes!)
During daytime I keep the phone in vibration mode (texts, email, phone calls, whatever). But at night I'd like to keep it completely silent, so no vibrations either. I can't seem to find the right mode tough.
Of course I could go to settings and switch vibration to never every night, but this should be easier right?
My old HTC Hero had a ringtone mode / vibration mode / silent mode at the side buttons but the NS doesn't seem to work that way.
Any ideas??
install Audio Manager
yes it can completely go silent or just vibrates
there are many bars of audio control
the short cuts only has access to like half of them
that's why you need a 3rd party app
Hold the power on button, there should be a "Silent Mode" option. That should keep your phone silent. Make sure to also check your Sound settings to Vibrate "Only when not in silent mode." Handy option.
Edit: You can also hold the power button and put your phone in "Airplane" Mode. When you turn off Airplane mode in the morning, all the emails/calls/texts or whatever will update.
Btw... slightly off topic but related: the vibration on the Nexus S is horrifically weak. I never ever feel it. Even in my hand, it's very weak.
no, that silent mode is fake
is not true silent, other music, alerts, etc, still sounds even when set to silent mode
re: vibration... exchange it for another phone, mine is very strong, i posted i topic about it
my old SGS had a weak vibration, compared to the SNS
Ahhh yes, i see it now.
I put the vibration to always when not in silent mode and the ringtones to "silent". So now I have a vibration mode and a silent mode, but no ringtone mode. Exactley how I like it! Thanks!
Re: vibration, mine is very "high" so to say compared to my old phone, but I'm starting to like it. Its just enough vibration...

Hey all,
So I've been running Lollipop for a few days now and till now I haven't find the silent mode. So even without vibration for calls.
Right now I have two choices:
1. Completly silent. But this will also silence my alarm which I don't want.
2. Let it vibrate. Which I don't want for phone calls.
I want my phone to be silenced but the alarm excluded.
Normally users could hit the volume down key one more time and put their smartphone into silent mode where it won’t even vibrate.
I've been searching for days for this simple option. Can someone help me out?
Thanks in advance.

Priority Mode.
Under "Interruptions" turn off everything and the only thing that will make a sound when the phone is in Priority Mode is the Alarm.

And the low battery sound and the charging sound and a few other system sounds. Priority mode is a poor substitution for a real silent mode.
I can't believe Google took silent mode out.
What the F were they thinking?

Set volume to 1 (Just before vibrate mode). Sit and reboot phone. You will now be in silent mode.
It's messed up for sure. I had it set to "priority" with everything unchecked so just my alarm would come through but some dumb Facebook notification woke me up in the middle of the night. Wasn't amused.
The only way to silent the phone except for alarms is to put it in airplane mode? Ridiculous.
Looking forward to some custom ROMs to fix up this mess.
This is my main reason for not updating to 5.0 so far... All I want is to be able to set the phone to totally silent, but still have the LED light for notifications without having to download something like LightFlow to do it. I like having nothing make noise/vibrate, but still have the LED blink when something comes in.

I developed an app: Call Filter Alarm. Its sleep mode can silence all notifications (also whatsapp and viber), even on Lollipop.
Hope it helps

Hi guys!
I too have the same problem and no app helped me... so I searched far and wide and I finally found a simple trick With my knowledge I have created an app:
Silent Mode Lollipop (search for it.merkcoolapp.silentmodelollipopfree in the Google Play Store to find it)
It only does one thing: switch from normal mode to silent mode, on any version of Android (of course, including Lollipop).
Remember, it's the 1.0 version
I hope it helps!

I made a small workaround that is very handy!
I used Nova Activities widget to create a shortcut to the Sounds and Notificaitions --> Interruptions activity.
Whenever I want to sleep, I simply tap the widget on my homescreen, turn off Calls as priority notifications and go to sleep with peace of mind
As soon as I wake up, I simply enable Calls as priority interruptions again by using the Nova widget
I know this is a workaround but this is the best way I found so far to solve this irritating problem on Android Lollipop.
I would also love to hear about any workarounds that anyone else on XDA has hacked together! Probably whip out a dialog UI using Tasker?
Hit thanks if my post helped you
There is an app called True Silent Mode which supposedly adds back silence like we are all used to. Alternatively you can try a different ROM. CM12 has the usual "silent but with alarms on" mode.
So to start, yes, my OPO DOES vibrate when quiet hours is off. So it's not a vibrator motor problem.
My issue is that with quiet hours on, I want to allow all calls to cause my phone to vibrate. I have unchecked 'Disable Vibrations' and 'Phone Ringer' is set to 'Ring for all callers' within quiet mode. My phone sound is set to vibrate, ring mode is set to vibrate, and vibrate when ringing are all activated.
Nonetheless, when a call comes in, the phone does not ring.
I have tried following the steps here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=55255610&postcount=11 as well as done a reboot subsequently. No avail.
Any kind soul with an idea?
Hi,
does anyone know how to disable vibration for notifications in priority mode? For example when someone is calling me and I don't answer the phone there is a vibrating notification even in priority mode (I have disabled Events/reminders interruptions).
This is a big issue for me because I dont want my phone to make any noises/vibrations during meetings, at night etc.
Thanks
Anyone else having this irritating issue where, when you are listening to Music (for me -- over Spotify). Whenever I get a notification, even when the notifications are on "Silent Mode", that when I get a notification, the sound dips down for a few seconds. It's very irritating. Anyone have this same issue, and if so, any solution?
The dipping might be just how notifications work I think. But I can't recall this in silent mode. Don't you have some apps or contacts whitelisted on silent mode maybe?

No, according to this reddit post ( https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/7e8fob/audio_constantly_dipping_when_listening_to_music/ ) , it is a known bug and the fix is to make Notification Sound as "None".
On my P20 pro, I activate the ‘Do not disturb’-function, which is the moon icon in the scroll-down menu; only calls come through on that setting
