Turn off notification vibration but leave the sound on? - Moto G 2015 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I usually keep my phone on a table or such surfaces, which make a loud and irritating rattling sound whenever my phone vibrates.
I want to disable notification vibration (or all vibration for all I care), but in a way that my phone will play a notification sound.
If there's a ROM that allows this, an app which plays notification sounds on Do not disturb mode, or a native android setting I have missed, I'm glad to use any of those.

You can disable vibration in each app, also in setting you’ll disable vibration for call.

But there isn't that option in every app. If there was, I would have done that already. I' talking about every notification, not just WhatsApp.

Actually many apps have this feature (vibration off/on). I got your idea but the answer is NO, there's no option on toggle turn off all vibration.

Turn off the notification sound on system level

I have an OPO 3 and I was wondering if there's a possibility to turn off the notification sound for all app, but I would like to retain ringtone sound as well as vibration.
Normally on Samsung S6, there's a possibility to do this when you press the volume rocker key.
I am rooted and have Xposed installed. I tried Ringer & Notification Volume unlink xposed module but that doesn't seem to work.
This is something that I am missing very badly, its tragic that google didn't encompass this feature by default.
Is there an alternate solution? I do not want to disable it per app basis but rather on the system level.

Put notification slider in priority mode and configure only calls in slider priority mode menu. They will shut up all notifications except calls.

Well that does the work but it also switches off the vibration. I want vibration for notification and calls to be enabled.
I don't know how then. Try custom slider mod from @weaton. It's very useful but i don't know if there's present this feature.
The way I do it is, to set notification tone to "none"
at a system level.

LED notifications after Nougat 7.0 update

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

I tried this but dont' work. No led notification.
It seems that the led depends on the sound notifications.
Thanks anyway.

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
autokat
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

Do not disturb just pausing notifications not muting them

Hello all,
I use Smart connect to put my phone into 'Do not disturb' over night while i sleep. However, since one of the last updates i have noticed that this does not mute notifications, it sort of pauses them until the phone reverts back to normal sounds and then all the notification sounds come through.
I just want to check if this is just me or is anyone seeing this strange behaviour. It didn't used to do that and its a pain when my phone jumps back to normal and i get all sorts of different apps pinging away at the same time.
Cheers
Bump....
Anyone else noticed this?
Yes, the same thing happens on my phone as well. It is to be expected though, or do you want to lose all your notifications?
In case the sounds it makes after dnd is over annoy you, you have to set the notification/call volume before you go enter dnd, as that previous value gets restored in the morning.

Thanks for the reply, good to know its not just me.
The thing is I get up at 04:30, so when my phone comes out of dnd, I sometimes get a dozen notifications just pinging away. The 'correct' way I want it to work is that the notification appears but it just silences the notification not wait until dnd is over to give them all at once. Thanks, I will have a play around with notification sound.
You can adjust the behaviour of DND on quite a granular level. Go to Sounds -> Do not disturb -> Notifications -> Custom and choose "Don't turn on the screen", "Don't blink light", 'Don't wake for notification".
You can also adjust who gets to call you during DND and whether you want Alarms to sound.

Alert slider not working

Hello,
My alert slider doesn't work. I don't want to use oos, so I tried many custom roms but my alert slider just keeps being in vibration mode.
When I set it to middle position it vibrates, when setting it to up or down it doesn't. But no matter what I do, phone is in vibration mode.
Thanks for help
nobody?
Try to clean flash Oxygen OS first and then switch, maybe?
My slider don't go in silent, only vibrate and sound works, is it more likely sw than hw failure? I'm just rooted on latest Ota os

Nevermind, i can push it harder then it goes in complete silent. I guess there is something wrong with the slider? Can I try spray a little of wd40 or other electrical spray lubricant?
Ich clean flashed oos 9.0.3 now, still not working.
removed dust, now its working
Cleaned out the dust

My alert slider wasn't working properly. It only went to vibrate and not to silent. Today I cleaned the dust out of de slider hole. And it worked!
Maybe it works for you as well.
Hey, how did you cleaned it?
Mine still technically switches from Ring to Vibrate and Silent but, no matter the position, notification sounds are on all the time, for all apps, from Messages to Gmail. Calls are silenced in Vibrate and Silent modes, notifications not.
It's not routed, with default everything, I checked the settings and everything looks exactly as before. Used to run OK, for about 2 weeks it changed.
If anybody has any idea, would be really appreciated.
I had a similar problem on my OP5 and couldn't figure out if it was software or hardware. Constantly switching to mute regardless of position. FIXED it by changing the back door battery cover which contains new alert slider innards.

Is this a bug or a feature?

I'll submit the question here as I think this is more kind of a debate rather than a question.
This is something I didn't get many answers neither from users nor xiaomi itself.
Prior to December 2019 my WhatsApp, telegram, signal, etc. calls were vibrating when Do Not Disturb was set up to:
When do not disturb is on - Allow calls - Allow from anyone.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After that they stopped vibrating under this very same scenario which greatly affected the functionality of my device.
Now I asked WhatsApp personally about why it doesn't vibrate even if WhatsApp is set up to vibrate.
They said:
The vibrations that you find within WhatsApp work differently based on what type of device you are using. For all devices, if your phone is set to vibration mode and your WhatsApp vibration settings are off, the phone setting will override the WhatsApp settings. In other words, your phone will still vibrate or vice versa.
Note that manufacturers may have their own unique vibration settings that may interfere with the WhatsApp notifications. We have no way to control this from our end.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
My settings are:
WhatsApp Calls - Vibrate - Default.
System settings - Sound - Vibrate for calls - On.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Given that whatsapp says that each manufacture does what it wants...
What is the right behaviour for this configuration? If they indeed introduced a bug, what can I do if they keep ignoring me?
I attached video proof of the current behavior.
I have been controlling vibration with tasker for a long time, because vibration does(did?) not respect DND, so to me it is a feature that I wasn't aware of.
I guess everyone has a different opinion on how things should work, but to me, DND means no sounds or vibration. If I wanted no sound but with vibration, then that is volume 0.
https://ibb.co/7NbHB2p
It's very well written on do not disturb settings that it will mute everything except the ones you allow!

Volume 0 would vibrate for messages too. My config makes the phone ring and/or vibrate only for calls. In fact DND can be customized to everyone's taste and works fine for regular phone calls when "allow all calls" is configured (they respect sound and vibration). The issue appears because third app calls respect the rules for sound but completely disable vibration.

Yes, indeed. In fact regular calls respect the exception like a charm for both volume and vibration. The issue is that third party app calls respect volume rules but stop vibrating altogether. To me it's a bug but I wanted to hear from others.
