Hello,
The phone vibrates every time it receives a USSD notification like this:
Usage made: 0.04MB. You have:
652.44 MB left in your account.
Valid upto Feb 25 2012
I have unchecked the vibration setting for calls and notifications in Settings -> Sound as well as the Text Input setting in Settings -> Language & Keyboard -> Touch Input. But it is still vibrating for these USSD notifications.
The major problem is that it keeps happening even when the phone is in the pocket about ten times an hour. It is very irritating.
Is there a solution to my problem? Apart from switching off data services completely and losing out on instant email notification. Post-paid connection is not an option because data services in post paid is very expensive.
Thanks in advance!

Stock Inspire
Using stock e-mail program
If I have unread e-mail messages, the phone will beep with the sound notification every time it checks for mail, until I open the e-mail app. Even if I have not received any new mail, it will beep when it checks for mail until I open the program.
So if I receive a message at 1pm, and it it set to check for mail every 10 minutes, I will receive a sound notification at 1:10, 1:20, 1:30, etc. until I actually open the e-mail app.
Is this normal? Is there a setting I can chage where it will only beep once upon receipt of a new message? I looked thru the settings and couldn't find anything.
Thanks.

Anyone else experiencing this?
This is happening for me too on Gmail.
It is also happening with my txt message. In addition to that, when it plays my txt msg notification, at the very same time it plays my default sound (so it is playing two sounds at the same time).
Are there setting for these that I haven't seen yet?
Thanks.

Do you have a third party messaging program like Handcent or Chomp installed?

How do you turn off specific notifications?
I just received my Inspire today and I'm having similar issues.
I've used Windows Mobile and iPhone for years. This is my first Android phone.
Everything is right out of the box with the stock ROM and no additional apps loaded. The only thing I did was setup my Exchange email accounts.
With Windows Mobile and the iPhone I was able to turn off notifications for new emails, but leave it on for text messages and calendar reminders. I receive a large number of emails and I need to have the email notification sound and vibration turned off.
So far I have found where to set your notification sound and where to turn off all notification sounds. I have not figured out how to turn offf just the email notification sound.
Each program has its own notification settings.
Go to mail -> menu - > more - > settings -> notification settings and there you are.
In gmail - menu -> more -> settings -> scroll down to email notifications
Messages - menu -> settings -> received notification

Thanks for the quick response.
An an Android newbie, I was looking for it in the main settings app, not in the mail program itself. I was able to turn off the email notifications and keep the other notifications on.

That is one of the big difference in iOS and Android. In Android you use the menu button within the app you are using to set the specific settings for that app. In iOS you go to the settings area to change setting for all of the apps. It took me a while to get used to when I made the switch last year. I got used to it and now it just makes sense to change settings within the program, not have to leave the program and do it somewhere else.
Took delivery of my S9 yesterday, my 1st foray into the world of android. Is there anyway to disable pop-up previews and just have a badge number to notify you when you have a WhatsApp message?. I have some fairly active WhatsApp groups and if I'm browsing the web, watching youtube, etc, basically doing anything on the phone at all its constantly previewing WhatsApp messages, toggling pop-ups off doesn't work, 2 minutes later they default back to on. If it can't be done its an absolute disaster, I can't believe anyone puts up with this - makes the phone almost un-usable. HELP!
Thanks in advance, Justin

I am having exactly the same problem with my S9+. and it is infuriating me! I have opened support cases with Whatsapp and Samsung regarding this because it is not normal functionality. On previous Android phones (LG G5, LG G6, Nexus 6p) i have been able to hide pop ups and keep the notifications as per normal, with the S9 its either everything on or turn off completely.
I have found a temporary workaround but it means all your notifications will be silent. You may be able to play around with the settings to get something that works for you!
Here is what i have done:
Go into Whatsapp > Settings > Notifications
Conversation Tones - Box unchecked
Notification Tone - Silent
Vibrate - Off
Popup Notification - No Popup
Now go to the home screen and go
Settings > Notifications > WhatsApp > Message Notifications
Importance - High
Sound - Silent
Vibrate - Off
App Icon Badges - On
On lock Screen - Hide Content
Finally make sure you have Edge Lighting Disabled
Settings > Display > Edge Screen > Edge Lighting Off
I hope that a fix for this is rolled out soon because its ruining my experience of my first Samsung.

Thanks so much for the reply, I've resorted to simply blocking the notifications entirely as whatever I change seems to magically revert back to what I can only assume is the default setting. Makes me almost certain its system/app bug opposed to operator error.
How something as rudemental as this makes it through BETA is almost beyond comprehension, such a shame. I can't believe that none of the top review and tech guys on YouTube haven't noticed this either.
As I mentioned in the OP this is my first android experience, how quick are things like this usually cleaned up? praying its resolved quickly!
I have the same issue it's becoming too annoying
Me too having the same issue.. with S9 Plus
Is there anyway we can hide the icon of whats app but phone should vibrate?
S20 WhatsApp notifications
And so here we are, 2 years on from the original WhatsApp notification issue on the s9, I'm sat here about the throw my brand new S20 against the wall for similar reasons.
My issue is, I can't seem to switch off the vibrate alert, whatever combination of settings I use I can't mute the vibrate without turning the whole phone to silent. I managed to sort it on the s9 with a random combination of settings that included having the alert set to high priority (for some reason), that option doesn't seem available these days. What an absolute farce. If anyone has managed to figure a work around, any help would be greatly appreciated!
Bought a new Mix 2S with the Global ROM installed (global version) on ebay. Installed Nova Launcher so I could have the app drawer, etc. Loving the phone except 2 major problems have cropped up and am wondering if others have seen it/have solutions.
1. Wifi looses the internet connection often; it shows "connected; no internet" and the phone stops working without a data connection. I am sitting near the router and my other phones have no problem but the mix won't hold the connection even after several reboots. I have to turn wifi on/off or reboot to get the connection back. Zero problems on cellular connections - it's only wifi.
2. Notification sounds stop working. When the phone is awake and for a few minutes afterward, notification sounds work fine then stop. I've shut off miui optimizations in developer options, shut off battery savings for all apps in the battery panel and have confirmed all the apps for which I want to get notifications have the notification options selected under apps yet - notification sounds stop working pretty quickly after the phone sleeps.
Any advice/guidance on these issues would be appreciated. Without a reliable data connection (and I need wifi deep in my building to get internet) the phone is useless and I've stopped using it after a few days.

This bug still remains in latest build (8.10.11). in miui per/app notifications option, notifications are activated by default, BUT yoo can see a few options below each app notification page switch: Sound, vibration, show on lockscreen, show headup....
By default, I seem to remember only vibration option is activated, so here (and on each conversation you got a notification in the case of telegram) you have to activate all options you want: sound, show on lockscreen....
After a while, all this activated options will be resetted by the system (we dont know why) and will switch back to its defaults >> "only vibrate and dont show on lock screen" combination.
Hi all,
I had an S8+ and Whatsapp was set to show the badge if there was a message or group message only (no vibrate or sound) and worked flawlessly. I got an S10 about a month ago, and I have set it to silent + no vibrate (both in Whatsapp notifications and on system settings) but it keeps vibrating when I get a message. The system settings keep reverting back to 'sound and vibrate' every couple days so I keep changing it to 'silent + no vibrate'. But even when it's set to this, it still vibrates!!
It really annoys me, as I only want my phone to vibrate for calls, messages and emails, not Whatsapp.
Any ideas how to fix this? I've uninstalled and reinstalled Whatsapp and it didn't fix it. I've done all software updates as well.
Go to Settings - Apps Notifications - Whatsapp, Block Notifications.

HI James, I still want an icon at the top of my screen when I have a message - I just don't want the sound or vibration.
Hi, any ideas?
There are three different settings for vibration in whatsapp: Messages, Groups and Calls. Have you tried disabling all of them?
Hi! Have you found a solution? I have the same problem on Note 9 and this drives me crazy.
Same for s20 fe that's a shame. It drives me crazy.
When the phone is asleep and someone is calling, it is all ok. So just like in the screenshot number 1
The incoming dialer appears normally.
However, when he unlocks the phone and the desktop is displayed, when someone calls us, the incoming call dialer does not appear. It is like in screen number 2. There is only a bar with "Reject /" Receive "call notification
This notification pops up after 3-4 seconds of delay from the ringer
This happens on every phone app.
Actions taken:
- Removal of application data
- Cache removal
- Reinstallation
- Disabling the system dialer and installing another (Google Phone)
- Setting of notifications and appropriate selection
- All permissions granted
- Proven "Do not disturb" mode
The whole problem arose after the OSS11 Stable EU update
Nothing helps
Anyone have any idea?
