Freaking SMS notifications in calls... times 3!

These are driving me up the freaking wall. I keep my phone on vibrate most of the time, but even when it's not, my SMS notifications only sound once. When I'm in a call, however, every text message that I receive interrupts my call. Not only does it sound a notification (which the other party can hear), it does it 3 times! It happens so quickly, that the stupid thing can't even finish before the next iteration starts again. I don't get upset easily, but this makes me want to punch something.
I can't find ANY menu item that differentiates how notifiations for SMS messages are in and out calls. Can anyone help me?
Oh yeah, I posted it here because I'm running Quentin's 6.0 WM6 ROM (v1.2). I don't know if it's something unique to his ROM, or if it's a default setting. I tried posting in his thread, but no one answered.

I never had this problem on any of the ROMs I have flashed and I've flashed over 20. So Maybe you could try another and see if it happens.

Man, I hope so. I really like the Q-Mobile ROM, though... I wasn't planning on flashing until he released another one. It's the only ROM that has cured my "flashing fever". Heheh...
So... if you're phone is on "loud", and you get an SMS during a call, what happens?

i can hear the notification when I am on a call, but the other person has never said anything so I'm not sure if they hear it or not. Only bothersome because my tone is kind of long and it drowns out what they're saying. I've never had a multiple notification though.

The other side doesn't always hear it. Sometimes they hear it clearly, sometimes not. I always hear it, though. It drowns out everything else. It's like a freaking smack in the ears every time it happens. If I could find the person responsible for programming that to happen three times, I'd kick him/her in the crotch.

At least Voice Command isn't reading them to the person you're on the phone with....

Hahaha, better watch it. I wouldn't be surprised if that started happening now....

Mine does the same thing on every ROM i've tried. It plays the notification sound, and then a "beep" sound on top of it, playing the beep twice. Never figured it out.

have you tried one of the kaiser tweak apps out there to disable in call volume beep's? this might just solve your problem

Notifications not sounding?

I've noticed that, for some reason, during the day my notifications won't sound. The phone will vibrate but I have missed calls, SMS, emails, etc. because of this. The phone is DEFINITELY on loud and I am NOT changing the volume in pocket (it happens with or without case). Everytime it happens, I checked my volume and it is all the way up.
Any ideas? PS - happens on any ROM

I had a similar issue that turned out to be due to my own mis-setting of CyanogenMod's quiet hours <.< 12PM is different than 12AM.
In your case it sounds like there is a setting somewhere that is preventing there from being a notification sound. Do you use stock messaging and gmail? Go into the settings for those applications (stock or non) and check to make sure its set correctly. Has this always been true? Have you tried doing a full factory reset? It sucks but its the best way to gauge whether or not you are experiencing a setting issue or if its really a hardware issue. Do your calls ring?

I appreciate the help; I'll check quiet hours. As I stated, calls have the same problem. Notifications are definitely properly configured in their respective apps because I get the sounds sometimes.

In your Sound -> Volume Make sur ethe "Use incoming call volume for notificatons" radio is ticked. Turn ringer all the way up and see if you can hear your notifications.

[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.

[Q] Ring Tone and Vibrate only last for 1 second, help....

Hello, I have a problem with my Nexus 5 (stock) ringtone and vibrate, I also had the same issue on my HTC One, which I had changed to Google Edition.

Did you ever find a solution to this? My phone has started doing exactly this, and I don't really know how to even begin troubleshooting it.

Yes I did. It was a 3rd party app causing the problem. A call control app that lets you accept and block numbers.....

Thanks for replying. That was my problem too. You saved me going through app by app to figure this out.

when on a phone call, can you turn off incoming sounds from text messages?

When I'm on a phone call and I get a text message it's so loud through the earpiece is there a way to turn this off?

I HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM TOO!
I've yet to find a solution for it yet. Couldn't find a way to turn it off either. I have play notification sound disabled inside of textra but it still goes through.

I use signal texting app... Must be 3rd party texting apps

I updated to 9.0.3 yesterday. It didn't cause the loud ding at all. I think it may have fixed it. I'll confirm again later today, so far seems promising.

Just updated as well... Let you guys know
New update me the phone super Snappy FYI

I don't think there's a particular switch that you can toggle. Although, what you can do is, delete /system/media/audio/ui/InCallNotification.ogg and you shouldn't get that sound for every notification during calls. But then again, you need to have root access.

Just got a text while on a call and didn't hear a ding. I'm on 9.0.3, completely stock.

@Macusercom were not the only ones. 9.0.3 may have fixed the issue fyi

That'd be great. Just flashed it and will check.

Tested again today. Not a single notification, including text, caused the loud ding

It's been fixed!
