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.
If someone calls the phone will ring and vibrate for about 1 second only and then it goes silent and stops vibrating, the call is still there ringing on the screen but just no sound or vibrate. This iv very annoying as I keep missing calls, can anyone please help with this issue.
Thanks

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.
In my z3 the ring volume is great , but when i receive notification like whatsapp is very low.

Yes it's the bigger bug of the Z3. Hope that Sony starts to investigate.....
Waiying new update
Solution
No need to wait to for an update.
1. Go to settings - sound - system notification sound: select no sound. Do the same with whatsapp settings.
2. Install lightflow. Go to lightflow notification settings, select and activate individual notification sounds for whatsapp, whatsapp groups, gmail, messages etc.
3. Go to lightflow volume settings, activate individual lightflow notification sounds and adjust their volume as needed.
4. Sorted!

Really? I was able to get a notification sound that was plenty loud. As loud as my previous phone LG G2. And with the same sound.
edit: Experimenting further revieled that my success was related to the notification sound used. I am using a mp3 tune from my sd cards music library. Choose an original sound from Z3 and the sound is weak again.
I used light flow, did not hear a difference between the sound. The volume is still low
have this issue as well. hope the new version will be able to solve this problem.
Waiting sony to start rolling an update, it takes time sony why others solve their software rapidely
Same issue here. Definitely looking for a fix to this or an update as it's quite annoying to listen to the sound and hear it plenty loud only to have it be really quiet (even at full notification volume) when receiving texts or other notifications.

Same here. Hope the update isn't too far into the future. Although, it might be bundled with lollipop a couple of months from now.

Don't hold your breath on an update to address this, the Z2 has the same issue and it was never fixed by Sony. There was a sound mod though, but it required root...which may not be a possibility for some Z3s.

Wileyfox Swift 2+. Android 7.1.2 Hello I have lost the new message notification sound. If I have the phone in my hand I can feel a slight vibration but no sound. Checked volume and sound settings. Ringtone works and so does Whatsapp.
Ant ideas ? Thanks.

You can try and use this app to download a new sms notification sound and set it using the app
Zedge - Playstore Link
Normally notification settings are in phone settings / sound but if you can't set it from there try the app above
Hello,
I got Android Pie few days back on my U11+, apparently I can't find the notification sound volume, only Media, Call, Ring, Alarm.
Any help on that? Any one has the same issue?.
Thanks,
Mohamed
Maybe I am missing something stupid but I am not getting any sound for incoming calls or message notifications. I bought the phone used updated it to the August build. Media sound seems to work I tested a video on YouTube and when I increase the call volume in settings I can hear a sounds but nothing when increasing ring volume or selection different sounds. I also tried to flash lineageos 18.1 with the same issues. Any ideas? Going to try and roll back to earlier stock builds.
