SMS playing different sound than Notification Sound?

This is an odd issue I've had since day one.
I've defined a notification sound for all incoming events, however, when I receive an SMS text from a certain contact, my phone plays a Led Zeppelin tune I have on my SD card.
Doesn't happen with anything else.
It's driving me insane cause I can't find this setting anywhere.
Anyone else experience this and have any suggestions?

Have you tried going into settings inside the sms app to change it? thats how I did mine.

I'm having the same problem. I've gone through all of the notification settings many times and still no luck.

[Q] No vibration on notifications

Hello, I have a SNS since four days and I notice a bug (I believe): when phone is in Silence mode it not vibrate on notifications. No on sms, no on gmail, no on every notification types.
I tried to set "vibrate always" in every application, but the issue remains.
Can you hel me to resolve my issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hey, try with this...
messaging>menu>settings
all the way down at the bottom check vibrate

I have exactly the same problem. Every setting (main, in apps) is set to "vibrate always" but the phone never vibrates in notifications when the sound is on.
I have been hoping it is a bug in 2.3, but there don't seem to be many threads here about it. On the other hand, how could it possibly be a hardware problem?

it vibrates when i get SMS
and all other alerts when my phone is in Sound ON or Vibrate Only

It doesn't vibrate for me with Google chat, Gmail, pretty much anything other notification wise, than SMS, and my storm8 notification systems doesn't vibrate.

[Q] No notification sounds during phone call?

Is there any way to turn on notification sounds (for new text msg or email etc.) during phone calls?
I find myself constantly taking my phone away from my ear during calls to check if there are any new notifications since the sounds get muted during call and find this kind of annoying. Seems like this should be a standard option, no?

Turn on pulse notification light in display.
You really talk on the phone so much and receive so many notifications that this is a problem?

Notification pulse is turned on - that has nothing to do with sound. It bothers me because notification sounds worked just fine during calls on my Galaxy Nexus.
If I talk on the phone for 40 minutes but I get an important text message 5 minutes into the call that needs a timely response, yes, it is a problem.

Anyone have any ideas? This is an annoying issue.

+1. I'm looking to see if there's a solution for this.

Yes , I need to know the answer to the same , because missing out on important messages are a fear when I am on long calls . Thanks .

Anything new on this? Just got my Nexus 5 and I'm having the same issue.

Use tasker. Make a profile that makes a short vibration upon receiving a notification. You could use a sound instead of vibrate, but imo that would be annoying for you and the person you're on the phone with.

Nexus 5 issue.
There's a simple solution for this., just go into your settings>sounds and notification >interruptions. Here you can edit what notification will interrupt you while being on a call.

clearing all notifications, notification sounds ??

hmm, if i have several notifications, gmail, stuff like that. from the lock screen, if i clear them all(button at the end of the list) i hear my notification tone after they clear.
ideas or anyone else ??

Has anyone found a solution for this problem.?
Here is a better description of the problem.
When I clear notifications that it makes the sound for the notification that is being cleared. For example, if I get 5 Gmails and I clear the notification for them it will trigger my incoming Gmail notification 5 times.

Anyone figured this out?
I have the same issue!!! Is it a setting somewhere? I also have the S3 Watch and it makes the notifications on it too...

I have this problem too. I *might* be related to having a setting in GMail that I have turned on to notify for every message. But if this is turned off, I don't get new notifications for emails if I have an outstanding notification already, which sucks for getting notifications on my watch.

Same here, its pretty annoying.

S10e weird notification with Whatsapp call

So I've been having this problem for a while now. Basically, when someone calls me on Whatsapp, I can hear ringtone but turning locksreen shows nothing. Same thing when I unlock the phone, say for example I am on the home screen, I can hear ringtone, but no pops up notification to tell that a Whatsapp call is taking place.
So, this means: 1) if I'm at the lockscreen and get Whatsapp call, I would have no way to answer or end call. 2) if I unlock and use the phone and the Whatsapp calls come, I also dont know if it is Whatsapp and also cannot swipe down from notification and accept/reject call.
So, I would need to physically open Whatsapp and then it would show a call is coming through and so i can accept/reject call.
Reinstalling whatsapp fixed this problem. However, I believe it is only temporary. My settings: AOD off, Edge Lightning off and does not send notification for Whatsapp.
Does anyone else experience similar problem? Strangely, Whatsapp call is the only thing that causes problem.
