5.0 Notification Vibrate - Wear OS General

So the way i used to use my moto 360 before 5.0 on my watch and phone is i would have my phone completely silent with just the notification light and my watch giving notifications through vibrate. Now that ive updated i cant seem to get that combo back. Does anyone know how to do this?

I'm still using this notification combo, after updating my moto360 to 5.0. I haven't seen any changes. Silly question, but your m360 isn't muted is it?

yeah things change in the way of notifications when you update to lollipop on the phone

Yeah I have Lolllpop on both my phone and watch (Nexus 6 and Moto 360) and it looks like you can't mute the phone completely but still have the watch vibrate as normal. Absolutely pathetic on Google's part, they have completed complicated what was a perfectly simple, flexible, and easily usable system while actually *removing* functionality. I almost feel like I'm missing something obvious here because I can't fathom Google screwing this up so bad.
Can someone show me the light here because I really want to be proven wrong?

You can use Wear Mini Launcher quick settings to mute your phone completely.

Are you sure about that? I've tried using the Wear Mini Launcher to do this but it only cycles the phone through all sounds, vibration, and priority. Only priority will actually mute the phone, but of course that mutes the watch too.
To clarify, we are talking about both a phone and watch that are both running Lollipop.

How exactly do you have the launcher set up to do this? Like specifically which things in the launcher settings do you have yours set to?

Just click the toggle button until the phone is muted.
Nothing to set.

Try this.

wow

Not sure what happened but I think the phone is muted now. Went back and checked the above settings and re-did them which may have done it, although I don't think any settings were set incorrectly before.
Thanks though!! This is still way more complicated than it should be and used to be but at least it looks like it's still possible.

Nexus 5 - vibration intensity ?

Hi all, never owned a nexus phone previously but just ordered from play N5 - coming from S4.
Just got a quick question... Is the vibration intensity adjustable on the N5 or even LG G2 like it is on my S4?
Thanks in advance

Hmmm... played around with it all night and can't find the Vibration intensity setting anywhere. There is also no settings for displaying battery percentage.
Looks like i may have been a bit spoiled with touch wiz.

Download a custom kernel that support it and install trickster on Google play to control it.
And there's a app call battery widget reborn that will show your a battery percent on the top left. This phone hasn't even been release a week yet.
Lol but no touch wiz did not spoiled you the nexus 5 support will suck you in if you like customizing your android.

For G2, yes the vibration intensity is adjustable. I'm waiting for N5 in the mail, but my N4 wasn't adjustible.
On the Nexus 5 the intensity isnt adjustable. On my Nexus 5 the vibration is really low...

the intensity is adjustable...at least for the haptic feedback when typing
I have a mushy annoying vibration when typing...especially when typing fast.
I did RMA my Phone and the new phone is allready on the way to me (still have the old one)
After i did RMA i found out that the haptic feedback is adjustable....i put it on 1ms for typing....now it is less annoying and feels kinda normal....but not as crisp as it should imho.
I will receive the new one tomorrow and will compare them......who knows how the new phone will be (dust, dead pixels).....if there is anything like that i´ll keep the old one....if i am allowed to...i heard google forces you to keep the new device....anybody knows that for sure?

Yes it is thanks to custom kernels like Franco or Faux.
vibration config on the playstore will sort you out!
It´s adjustable without custom kernel or any app...
just go to settings -->Language & Input
there you will find Google Keyboard and at the right of it there is a symbol (haven´t seen it for the first few days)
Push it and you will find an extra poined called "advanced settings"
There you can change the vibration feedback for typing

Wondering how the new one compared to the first one you bought? My vibration is also quite mushy (not crisp/sharp like my GNex nor the Moto X) and I'm wondering if I have a bad unit or if that is how the vibration was intended to be...

I don't think so, I did it before and I couldn't find anything, just root it. it's really easy.
by the way that APP works great.
Hi guys, is there any way I can increase vibration strength permanently by editing a file instead of using a root app? I tried doing what Vibration Config does by going into /sys/devices/virtual/timed_output/vibrator/amp and changing the value from 60 to 95, which works, but on a reboot it keeps changing back. Any idea how to keep it permanent? Thanks

It changes back because the kernel sets everything back to default, which is why kernel apps have a "set on boot" option. It also requires root access to be able to modify such values.
You can:
- compile a kernel yourself and change the default
- use a kernel app to set on boot
- use tasker to change the value on boot
- change it manually every time
An init.d file can do the job also.

Yeah forgot about that halfway through writing the post, but you also need support for init.d in kernel ramdisk.

Volume alert

Hello, as much as I appreciate Samsung's concern for my health and safety, I am getting annoyed by the volume notification that says "Listening to music on high volume for long periods of time might be harmful" etc., sometimes I'm out running and I try to turn up the volume, it'll vibrate and block it, so I'm forced to pull out my phone and dismiss the freaking notification.
I tried searching for it in the settings, nothing came up as a toggle switch off.. Thanks ?

Nothing you can do about it without root. Samsung doesn't understand that external bluetooth devices have independent volume controls, apparently.

How do you do it when rooted?
I actually don't know on this phone. On the S4, I used Xposed to remove the volume warning, but I don't know if that's available for the S6 yet. Might check the S6 development forums to see if there's anything.
This is an Android feature, not Samsung. I think Google added it in KitKat to comply with some laws somewhere.

I'm pretty sure it's a Samsung thing. The Moto G 2nd Gen running the 5.0 update doesn't do it, and didn't do it on the shipped 4.4 OS.

Disabling vibration completly without root?

If you don't like my hobby, well, I can't help you there. Mate.
Where I CAN help you is with your real problem. See, I also got an used Pixel with rattling vibration. So just go thru all the settings on the phone and anywhere you see it - disable it or turn it off. This means haptic feedback, keyboard settings, ringtone settings etc. You can't disable it all at once, you just gotta go one by one. It's a 3 minute walk, you can do it.

Ringtone and Notification volume separate sliders?

Why no Notification volume slider is present in sound settings, is there any other work around to get those separately?
Is there a way to have 4 options like all other phones have, ringtone, notification, media, call or alarm etc
Did you go to Settings -> Sound -> Volume? All sliders show up for me ... SM-N9500 unrooted on latest software update.

Right. It's ridiculous because notifications come through and their "gaming mode" doesn't stop them either. Their OS is total crap, it's like stepping back in time.
Is anyone found a solution for this? Is there any solution with root? I'll root just for this!
Sorry, I thing that I do not understand you correctly.
I want to have all sliders when you press the volume button?

That app doesnt work either, when lowering notification or ringtone loudness, it drags down the other one with it.
OP has the ringtone and notification combined, no app without rooting your phone is going to change that.
There are complaints to OP on their own forum going back years of people asking them to separate them, to no avail.
I've personally sent them emails about this issue and some other coding issues they have. In regards to this issue I wasn't nice about after I got a ridiculous response from them. I'm just not understanding how a million dollar company can't fix simple coding problems and can't/won't update their OS to bring it even into 2016.
I like the phone overall, but I think this will be my first and last OP.

Android Pie - Notifications only come through Bluetooth device

Noticed with the Pie update, that if you're using a bluetooth device, the notifications only come through that. No longer comes through phone as well.
I need my earbuds to be paired and connected for most the time, but cannot have them in ears at all times. I only noticed after my wife called me to make sure I was ok as I hadn't been responding to numerous relatively important texts. Wasn't replying because I hadn't heard the notifications. . . . because my earbuds weren't in my ear.
Have there been any solutions to this thing. This is really bad and obnoxious.

All audio, ringer and notification sounds are redirected to headphone/ear-bud/earpiece when they are connected, it's a hardware feature that is built into the hardware, it can't do both.
Either leave the ear buds in or train yourself to disconnect them when not using them.

I've never had a device that could do this.
If it could do this before the update, the feature is probably still there, the settings for it may be in a different place or has a different nomenclature.

It definitely worked before. I've been going crazy since February, trying to figure out how to get the sound to play through the phone while a Bluetooth device is connected.
