Been googling and searching the forum, but can only find people complaining that they WANT the notifications to play in their headphones, versus out the regular speaker, when their headset is plugged in.
Can I just say, be careful what you wish for?!
I have a rooted Huawei Ascend Mate 2 on 4.3. My problem is that I DON'T want the notifications coming through my headset. There seems to be nothing in the phone or sms settings to stop this. It sucks when I have the headset on and my normally silent notifications come BLARING in. It's so damn loud and startling. Any way to silence these? Everything on my device is always on silent, except my alarms.

I can hear the sms notifications, alarms etc and the phone ringing without problem - when I am NOT using a headset.
But I most often have my headset attached to the phone - eventhough it is just laying on the desk. But if the headset is attached, I can only hear the phone ringing out loud. The sms notifications, alarms etc is ONLY heard through the headset.
Is there a way to hear the sms notifications, alarms etc from the phone loudspeaker, AND have the headset is attached as well??
You need to go into Bluetooth connection settings, and uncheck "wireless stereo".
Of course if you do that, you won't be able to hear music through the headphones, but that's why WM sucks. Nothing works as it should.
I've actually had the same problem. It's a shame you can't get the best of both worlds.
Just wanted to see if any of you running the leaked FROYO rom for the mesmerize have come across this issue: when headphones/ear buds are plugged in to the phone for listening to media, and a text message arrives, the notification tone coming through the headphones/earbuds is very, very loud. I ran across this with this 2.2 build released here and did not experience this with 2.1.
If someone could verify that the notification tone coming through headphones/ear buds is painfully loud, I would appreciate it.
I talked to another user of 2.2 on his mesmerize and he experienced the same thing I did, however through bluetooth the notification volume level was fine.
Thanks!
Just did some resting with this. I didn't seem to have a extremely load volume on the notification. Have you checked the volume of your notifications in the setting? Try changing it and then send your self a text will listening to something thee the ear buds. I do some more testing.
Thank you for your reply.
Here's the story, in order for notification tones to be heard while the headphones are unplugged and in pocket, the notification volume has to be turned up pretty far, in turn when the headphones are plugged in, this makes the notification really loud, through the headphones. In order to avoid this problem, the notification level will have to be turned down every time the headphones are plugged in. With 2.1 the notification volume was reduced for the headphones even if the notification volume was maxed out.
Hope I make sense here. If you have your notifications volume maxed out are the notifications uncomfortably loud?
No there not. I'm also using ringing pro I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Ok. What is ringing pro?

That was supposed to be ringo pro. It lets you set custom tones for text and voice
When playing audio through bluetooth in my car, alerts like email and text messages just vibrate on the phone. Is this normal for this phone?
On other phones, i would get the sound alerts through the car speakers.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
I'm not sure. Check your notification settings

U WOT M8?

I know on my HTC One X+ running sense 5.5 and Android 4.2.2 my device would just flash notification light. Maybe it did vibrate but wouldn't know, don't hold my phone in my hand or pocket while driving. I never got a ring or sound notification, only when an incoming call was coming in.
Ya, I just tested this again and all it does is vibrate no sound from the car speakers. I checked all the settings and everything is enabled, I had no issues on my S4 or iphone 5s with 7.1, so looks like its sense and the way it handles that. bummer
Hi.
This is probably the most annoying problem I've got with this phone. Basically, when your headphones are plugged in and you're trying to enjoy some music, receiving a text message results in a loud and clear "beep" tone. I understand it could be useful at times, for example when the screen is off and you actually care about any messages you may get, but most of the time it makes it pretty much impossible to listen to any kind of music at all, because the sound can be really disturbing.
The problem is that the tone can still be heard, even if you enable all "silent" modes and what not. That includes the "no disturb" mode as well, but it doesn't deliver any less disturbance, go figure.
I could think of two solutions to that, first would be to just go into the airplane mode, which is suboptimal for obvious reasons and it also won't work at all if you stream your music (when there are no WiFi networks nearby). The second thing I've yet to try is to set a silent audio file as the message tone to see if it removes the beep sound. I'll have to try it later.
Let me know guys what do you think about this matter and what other solutions come to your mind. Maybe there's a way to disable the feature in the settings somewhere, which I just wasn't able to find myself?
Hi all,
Is there a way to make it so any notification sounds or alarms ring thru the phone when connected to bluetooth headsets? I sometimes fall asleep with headset but naturally the ear piece will fall out during sleep so when my wake up alarm goes off, I won't hear it because it plays thru the headset. Same goes for notifications for texts, etc. I would like all notifications/alarms to sound from the phone speaker regardless if I'm connected to bluetooth or not.
Thanks
