Incoming SMS messages not triggering the vibration - T-Mobile LG G5 Questions & Answers

I can't figure this one out. I have a H830 running 20i non rooted.
Sometimes incoming text messages don't trigger the vibration. The screen comes on and shows the pop up message. It just doesn't trigger the vibration. I have no problem receiving messages. They just don't always give the vibration alert.
It's intermittent with no pattern. Sometimes it'll work while the phone is in a deep Doz sleep. Sometimes it won't. Sometimes it'll work when the phone is active with the screen on and sometimes it won't.
I have the problem on the stock messenger, Chomp SMS and Next SMS. (Not running them simultaneously.. Stock SMS is disabled. Only one 3rd Party SMS installed at a time. Same thing happens on stock with no 3rd party SMS apps). The settings in the apps are properly set to send a vibration alert. It just don't work every time.
Occasionally it'll even give me a super short single vibration, almost like a keypress vibration. That's instead of the 3 long vibrations pattern I have set.
I don't believe it's a hardware issue. The vibration motor works 100% of the time if I purposely trigger it by turning out 'vibrate on keypress' or turn the system volume to vibrate or run any vibration test. So the motor is fine. The controller is fine. It's just SMS's that don't seem to send the alert to the system to trigger the vibration motor.
I cannot figure this out. I've made the SMS apps persistent and allowed them to be ignored in the battery optimizations in case the app wasn't waking in time.
Any ideas?

Random, Late Vibrations

I using a S710 with Dr Gonzo's WM6.1 v1.1
I've set the Profile options as "Vibrate and sound" for messaging, emails, and Calls.
But whenever there's a missed call, the phone vibrates about 25-30 seconds after the missed call, multiple times.
Same goes with SMS, the sound notification comes first, then sometime later, the vibrations.
Sometimes it vibrates for no apparent reason, even after checking the missed calls list.
It's kinda irritating now. I've put off the vibration option for all except voice calls for now.
Is it fine after you put off the vibration?
I think its not the phone which gives the late vibrations, but the reminder script. it keeps notifying untill you check the missed calls.
You should remove the script notify.mscr from the startup. It will resolve your issue.
yes, its ok after vibration i turn1ed off,
I'll get rid of the script. Thanks !

Disable wake on any notification

Hi guyz,
Googled it with no real solution.
Is there any way to disable waking my TP on notifications like low battery, etc. Message notification is easy to disable, Answerkeys Disabler works like charm when it comes to incoming calls but I want to disable waking up the device on any notification and have only audible alerts.
Often when in pocket or case my TP wakes on notifications like low battery and starts random dialing, texting, etc. which is getting annoing.
Thanks in advance,
dEM
ummm, through sounds and notification settings?
Ummm, nope. Disabled Enable sounds for Notifications (alarms, reminders) and set Reminders only on Vibrate (unchecked Display message on screen).
Anyone..?
You could try this one for disabling wake up for sms.
HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL\ DisableSMSWakeUpEvent, set to 1
I've turned it on last night, but haven't received an sms yet so dont know exactly what it does, but I was looking for it for the same reason as you.
Thanks, I've already disabled that. Still can't figure out how to disable the rest of the notifications.
ooh, btw, I've also S2U2 installed, so everytime I receive an sms or notification, I've to unlock the phone first, works like a charm.

[Q] No vibration on notifications

Hello, I have a SNS since four days and I notice a bug (I believe): when phone is in Silence mode it not vibrate on notifications. No on sms, no on gmail, no on every notification types.
I tried to set "vibrate always" in every application, but the issue remains.
Can you hel me to resolve my issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hey, try with this...
messaging>menu>settings
all the way down at the bottom check vibrate
I have exactly the same problem. Every setting (main, in apps) is set to "vibrate always" but the phone never vibrates in notifications when the sound is on.
I have been hoping it is a bug in 2.3, but there don't seem to be many threads here about it. On the other hand, how could it possibly be a hardware problem?
it vibrates when i get SMS
and all other alerts when my phone is in Sound ON or Vibrate Only
It doesn't vibrate for me with Google chat, Gmail, pretty much anything other notification wise, than SMS, and my storm8 notification systems doesn't vibrate.

[Q] Vibration; short for notification, long for call

Is there a way, by default or via app, for me to set different vibration settings for notifications vs. calls?
My problem is that the vibration setting for emails is too long. Each email produces a long, three second vibration. Even if I make a custom short-burst vibration in settings>sound>device vibration, I still get a long vibration for emails. The custom vibration that I created only triggers when I'm getting a call.
So, I guess my question is: Is there some way for me to customize the vibration pattern for notifications?
Try Light Flow.

Pretty sure it allows you to customize both the LED and vibration settings on a per app basis.

[Q] How can I change the vibration length for notifications?

I seriously tried everything, but I can't change the vibration length for notifications. The result is that for EVERY Email, SMS, Facebook message, you name it, I get a 3 second long vibration that is driving me nuts.
No matter what I do, the vibration length stays the same. I can set the intensity to lower, but the length stays the same. I defined my own vibration pattern as well, but that only works for calls, it does not work for everything else (=notifications). WHY is it so difficult to just set the vibration length to 0.5 seconds? This is the worst phone I have ever owned, honestly
Go setting ...under sound and notifications...there should be vibration intensity. If u hate vibration...personally just turn it off....i did mine..and save battery too.

Like I said, I don't want to change how strong the vibration is, I want to change how LONG it vibrates. Right now it vibrates for 3 full seconds for every goddamn notification. This is the worst and most annoying thing I have EVER experienced with a phone.
I need vibration in general so I notice when I get a new message etc. but I don't need my phone to vibrate 3 FULL seconds for every single text message, hangouts message, facebook comment etc. If I get several of these at once (e.g. 3 text messages in a row), then my phone keeps vibrating for 9 seconds!
So is this not possible at all, or am I having some weird bug? I can't believe anyone would use this phone like this, it literally vibrates for 3 full seconds for every stupid notification (like the 'basic call' notification setting, but it stays on that pattern even after I change it to 'knock knock' for example)
