Is there an option i can set so that when im using windows live messenger and someone messages me my phone would vibrate of make a sound. It does sound and vibrate on the first message but after that I have to keep looking at my phone to see if the person im chatting with has message me. Because once the conversaion box is open all it does is blink, not make any sound This is very annoying. So if anyone knows a tweak or an option i have not come across to fix this problem i would greatly appreciate your help.
Have you tried to set the notification in Start > Settings > Personal > Sounds and Notifications?? Tap the Notifications tab and set the sound file you want for "IM: New instant message". Be sure to also check the box "Play Sound" to enable the notification sound to play.
Hi,
I'm using Google Hangouts for sending SMS.
When I receive a text message, it uses the system default notification sound (which for me is Pollux), not the one I choose...
In Hangouts settings, under notifications, this is displayed :
Default ringtone (Pyxis)
This is my phone ringtone, not my default notification sound !
If I touch the setting to change it, the sound I choose is selected, which is Hangouts Message... But when I receive an SMS, it is Pollux that is played...
I cleared data and cache of Hangouts and this doesn't change a thing.
Anybody got a clue ?
Thanks.
EDIT:
Nevermind, I found the answer to my problem. Here it is :
For the first time with this phone, I'm using Cyanogenmod's profiles... and by default, it overrides SMS notifications. I just configured my profiles so my notifications were not overridden and everything works normally !
The displayed notification ringtone is still wrong, but that is cosmetic and I'm OK with it...
EDIT2 :
I need more coffee - the default is NOT to override SMS notifications... I will redo my profiles
Hey ya's. I'm using an N5 with stock 5.01, rooted with twrp. During the night I used to use a tasker profile for when sleeping that did pretty much what priority Mode does by allowing my started contacts calls and messages to get through and alert me. With priority Mode now available, I use tasker to just trigger that instead.
But I'm having an issue with my messages. I use Handcent as my default messaging app and when I get an sms from a starred contact when in priority Mode it does not sound. I installed google messenger to check and when it's set to default messaging app I get the notification since no issues. Switch back to Handcent and no luck again.
I use Handcent because I like the pop up alert in it, but more so because I can schedule sms messages for a particular time, which is a feature I do use a bit. So if rather not change from it if I can help it.
Just wondering if anyone knows why the alert doesn't sound in Handcent during priority Mode, and if there's a work around?
Something to try:
Settings > Sound & notification > App Notifications > Handcent > Enable Priority
You bloody champion! Seems that was it. Didn't even notice that setting was there. Rippa!
This setting allows all notifications to come through, even from non-starred contacts.
Is it possible to disable the vibrate notification when receiving e-mails (using the stock e-mail app)? I want the visual icon to show up in the notification bar with no sound, just NOT vibrate. I want to keep the vibrate notifications for MMS, calls, etc..just not e-mails. This seems like a simple request but I can't seem to figure it out.
If its anything like the Gmail app then open up settings, inside settings, click on your Address [email protected], Then its inside there...
( I don't use the email app, sorry.. just a thought )
Settings --> General --> Notifications --> Select corresponding account --> UNcheck "Vibration" (unchecked by default for me)

Thanks for your response. The "vibration" option is grey so I can't change it. It is off by default anyways, but it still vibrates.
This is driving me crazy. Any recommendations for a different email app?
Open email. Touch 3 dots in upper right hand corner. Touch settings. Open notifications. Select email account . Turn off vibration.

If you're like me and always keep your phone on vibrate, this is actually a far more annoying issue than you would imagine. (The same fix can be used for Google Hangouts.)
If vibrate is not currently enabled under notifications and your phone keeps vibrating at you, it's actually because of your notification sound. If you change the notification sound to "Silent", your phone will no longer vibrate.

Yes, I always keep my phone on vibrate. If I switch it to silent, wouldn't that disable the vibrate from sms and calls?
No, those will still vibrate. You don't want to switch the ring tone settings, just the notification sound for your email. Go into settings, notifications, and then for the notification sound select "Silent".
After this update my led notifications stopped working.
Only fixed whatsapp notifications by turning it OFF and then ON in the application, but the groups notification LED doesn't work if the group was silenced (leaving the notification box checked). Then, if I disable the silence, LED for groups works again. But I only want LED for groups, I don't want sound.
I try to turn off all apps notifications and the turn ON in android settings but nothing.
Also disable notification LED in android settings and still the same.
My compilation is:
NRD90M.G30FXXU1DQAS
Everything works fine, but I hate the new notifications system on Nougat.
Any with the same problems?
Thanks and sorry for my bad english.
Would like to see solution to this, my friend is also experiencing this

It seems that the led depends on the sound notifications.

and put it in notifikation sound under storage/emulated/0/notifikation and set that sound in gmail app and the blue led will work again with no sound

As long as sound is on then you will get the LED notification light. If the phone is in vibrate or silent, you wont.

LED notification will work as long as the sound is turned on. If the phone is in vibrate or silent you wont get the LED notification. Stupid, I know.
This is not exactly true. I have my phone in silent mode and vibrate mode and the led indicators works just fine. But my girlfriends phone the led won't work at all except with sound on.
I join the discussion because I get the same problem, bu I'm using Go SMS pro. Missed calls worked fine, but in go sms, just the screen goes on and no LED in slience or sound mode ...
Wath to do ? I tried to place my notification sound into notifications folder, but without more success.
[EDIT] Flashed the lastest BL and CP and the v2.4.1 and everything (I only tested GO sms) seems to work !
[EDIT 2] LED does not work when sound off
same here
just updated my Samsung Note 5 to nougat and the LED notification do not work when the phone is set to vibrate only or silent... the led notifications only work when sound it on.
I have the same issue. I hope Samsung fixes this issue soon and also bring Adoptive Storage Back!!
I'm also having the same issue. Only with go sms pro so far and only when phone is on silent. Wondering if this is a nougat issue or if it's go sms pro...
Tried everything with the settings, it's on DND with sound on, had messages and whatsapp on "priority notification" ON but on "show silently" so I could still get the LED indicator, it worked very rarely on MESSAGES but never on Whatsapp. Tried clear partition, tried rebooting, tried clearing cache on the 2 apps, to no avail.
Finally, to get it DND with LED indicator on, it's not the best since I wanted the option to have sound ON for texts and whatsapp when DND is off.. but clearly that won't work.. is I have:
- LED indicator on
- DND on
- Messages and Whatsapp on PRIORITY notifications
- APP settings: sound is on SILENT & vibration is off for both
This fixes it for *some of the notifications* not even all the time as a perma-fix. This is very frustrating, as much as my One Plus X lacked in camera settings and such, this function and DND worked so seamlessly at the press of a button, literally the side button.
Smart phones have become so complex god knows what is overriding what so things are not working the way they are supposed to. This will have to do until it's fixed if ever :\ and I don't feel like downloading a 3rd party software that will collect more data and possibly cause more issues for this one small thing. Ugh.
I'm hoping the next update will solve this annoyance.. and that this will be a proper fix for now.
yes iam experience same thing on my galaxy s7 930f exynos iam using whatsapp and have sound notification off and no vibrations iether and there is no LeD on my phone only if i turn on sound but the thing is i dont want sound in group chats in whatsapp that can be to annoying but i only want led
