Tilt 2 wakes up with every text -- I don't want that!

One thing I really liked about my T2 out of the box was the fact that receiving a text message did NOT wake up the phone.
All of the sudden, it is waking up with every text. I checked to make sure that somehow DisableSMSWakeupEvent hadn't been changed to '0', but it is still set to '1'. Did a soft reset, rechecked the registry value (it's still set to '1')but the phone continues to wake up with every text. I also checked in event notifications to make sure I hadn't inadvertently checked the 'Display message on screen' box.
I had installed Advanced Configuration Tool a few days ago, but uninstalled it the next day after only checking out the options and didn't change anything with it. My only other recently installed software is SPB Time, but it's been in place for more than two weeks so I don't think that's doing it. And I'm *still* using the stock AT&T rom.
What gives? I don't want my phone to wake up when I receive a text!

I only fixed this when I used advance config to tell it to wake up on text, softreset, don't wake up on text, soft reset, and then it finally worked how I wanted it.

try deleting the string and then recreating the dword string. and then soft resetting.

i dont understand why you dont like your pro2 to wake up when the SMS comes in, how will you know a message has arrived????
this is a must feature of a phone,each person who are involved in thw world's business will require.
Hope you are not a spooky person,

It will still vibrate, beep etc, just not turn on the screen until you press the button.
Mine is doing the same. I agree with the OP

Why?
Because my phone lives in my pocket, and when I'm seeing patients or have my hand somewhere you probably don't wanna know about, I can't check every text as it comes in. If the screen turns on in my pocket, then I begin pocket dialing or other bad things. And THAT'S why I con't want my phone to light up when I get a text.
Besides, I have the LED set to flash with new message notification, as well as to vibe so I'll know I just got a text.
The good news is that after the problem has suddenly disappeared just as suddenly as it appeared. Guess I must have bowed down properly to the phone gods in my sleep last night...

You could try using S2U2...
That way you won't start 'pocket dialing'.

I do want my Tilt to wake up with every text and it isn't. I am new to this, can you tell me how to make this change?

[Q] Strange random beeping coming from phone...

It has happened about 3 times so far that my phone has made a series of loud beeping noises that lasts about 10 seconds with no discernible cause. Changing the volume does not stop it until I put it all the way down into vibrate mode. It almost sounds like it could be ringing but it isn't the ringtone I have set. When it happens, I check my notifications and running apps to no avail. Has anyone else experienced this? This is my first Android phone so it is possible I am doing something wrong. Any ideas?

Same thing here. The beeping starting happening sometimes when I rebooted but now it's been doing it pretty much every time I get a text message and it also randomly replaces my default ringtone when calls come in. It's a loud beeping down that lasts about two seconds and repeats over and over. Sometimes it stops itself after a few cycles but sometimes it will not stop until I acknowledge the notification (opening up the text or answering a cal). It's very annoying. Might have to try a hard reset soon.

Yeah, for some reason it seems the text notification ringtone will change back to that god-awful sound for no reason. Very annoying.

Do you have yurt phone setup to remind you of missed calls and text?

This happens when you've rebooted and gotten a message. Your SD card, containing your ringtone, hasn't mounted yet. The media scanner is running. Following this operation, the ringtone will work once more.

From some few days, strange beeping sound comes sometimes through my phone .When I check my phone there is no notification,& the sounds last for10-12 seconds, please help me if someone knows the reason.My phone is redmi Note 4g

Nexus won't vibrate!

My shiny new Nexus doesn't seem to want to vibrate, it's set to always vibrate when ringing and the keyboard should be vibrating. Anyone else noticed a problem like this?
Hoping I'm just missing some setting somewhere but it seems like it's probably a hardware fault.

Remember to make sure vibrate on touch is also selected (bottom of the sound option in settings)
Also are you using the stock keyboard?

"Vibrate on touch" is selected and I'm using the stock keyboard.

Does the phone vibrate when you shut it down or when it first turns on from a cold boot? If not maybe your vibrator is pooched.

Nope, no vibrate on boot or shut-down, I guess if it's supposed to be doing that then this one is definitely a dud.

I would say see if it vibrates when you adjust the volume down to vibrate mode, or try an app that lets you test the vibrator. But it sounds like it is a dud.

I have problem with vibration on notifications. I have set vibrate always, but when SMS or email arrives, nothing happend.
But touching bottom buttons does vibrate, even turning of and on or putting phone to silent mode by volume buttons.
That's realy weird.

You have to individually set those apps to vibrate.

he is just trying to help.. sheesh.
if not vibrating on shut down, i say exchange yours then.

anyone find a solution to this? my phone doesnt vibrate when i get email, texts or gtalk. i went in to each app and set them to always vibrate, but still nothing.

I noticed yesterday that if you use your volume buttons to put your phone in silent , there is a setting after vibrate where the speaker icon is crossed out. In that setting nothing vibrates. I was freaking out yesterday until I figured that out

I was having the same problem with notifications. I had the notification level set to vibrate and the messaging app set to vibrate "always" but it wouldn't work when I received messages until I restarted my phone... now it vibrates like it should

I also have this problem. My phone doesn't vibrate when I'm receiving a call, text, or email.

Mine wasn't working either until I selected Vibrate on Touch. Not sure why this was necessary.

I am having the same problem. Phone calls vibrate, also vibrates when shutting down, starting up, turning volume down to vibrate also vibrates, but no notifications (email, text, google voice, etc.) vibrate.

Bumping old thread because I'm having this issue now!
Phone vibrates for everything except notifications. Calls, touches, start up/shut down, everything vibrates. I've checked all requisite settings and it doesn't matter. Worked fine earlier today and it doesn't work now...
Edit: And just like that, it's back again. Several reboots and toggling later. Not sure exactly what did it, but I had downloaded several toggle widgets and toggled all 'round till it worked on a SMS.

Did you ever fix this problem? I just picked up a used Gnex and am seeing the same problem. There's no vibration during boot and shut-down. None of the settings and apps I've tried have been able to make a difference.

Zenwatch seems to vibrate for no reason

Hello, Second day of ownership and I am already having an issue. The watch vibrates, I check it for a notification, nothing there. Awhile later, vibrates again, no notification. Sometimes there is a notification it got from the phone, but 90% of the time it seems to be vibrating for no reason.
I tried to wear it to bed last night but the incessant vibrations were annoying.
Even if it was vibrating when I got a notification,is there a way to tell it not to vibrate for certain hours?
Thanks

Check google fit settings. Mine use to do that but "fit" was buzzing me to get active and get moving. When I told it not to urge me to move the vibrations stopped. good luck?

I don't see Fit on the watch or on my phone? Is it hiding? I went into the watch settings and nothing there for fit? On the phone I have the Wellness app but the option to bug me to move is off so that shouldn't be it. It seems you are on the right track, but I don't know how to find the app?
Thanks

Did you try resetting the watch back to default?

Wellness, just like fit, has a "Remind me to move" feature that will send vibrations. Also, if you have it set to remind you when you forget your phone it will vibrate without any message when it loses connection.

not getting text or email notifications, not vibrating..

I am no longer receiving text message or email notifications on my watch. It doesn't buzz/vibrate. When I check the cards, the messages are there, the watch just isn't vibrating to let me know. I've restarted the watch, and resynced applications, and then restarted the watch after I re-synced apps, still nada. I've tested sitting still at my desk, so it isn't that I'm not feeling the buzz, it just isn't buzzing. It is vibrating for phone calls though. Suggestions?

Instead of restarting watch, I would unpair watch (bluetooth) & then factory reset the watch

Thanks, I tried doing a factory reset twice now. But I didn't unpair it first. I did uninstall all my android wear apps, or a I thought I did... but after the factory reset, some of apps came back, a timer and stopwatch. But they don't have companion apps on the phone, so I'm not sure how to uninstall them. But, the problem persists. I did discover that, at least at this point, it is only when the phone is in vibrate or silent mode. If the phone is on regular mode, then I do get the text notifications. Once I put it on vibrate, thaen I stop getting the notifications.

OK, I figured out how to uninstall the apps, which I did, unpaired it, did a factory reset, started all over from scratch, to no avail. Still not getting text message notifications... actually, the text messages come through, just no vibration to alert me. Same with emails, I get the emails, but no vibration. Oddly, I do get my Gmail emails with vibration alert. But no vibration alert for the non-gmail emails. This is not a good thing.. one th the things I liked most about the watch was to know when text emails came through and quickly check if it was something that needed prompt attention.

Well, not sure what changed, but texts and mail vibrations are working again.. thankfully... the only thing I can think of on the texts was that I switched over to hangouts on my phone. That didn't work too well, but the vibration notifications were working, then I switched back to the built in application. But, at least its working..

Not exactly a solution that gets at the root of the problem, but have you tried a third party notification app? Something like Feel the Wear? I believe that overrides the default vibration settings completely. I say that because the app needs its own "quiet time" setting and/or manual mute from your phone. Simply muting the watch via the pulldown menu won't stop the vibrations from the app.
So if you're still having issues using your preferred apps and getting alerts, perhaps give that a try?

THanks for the suggestion, will check it out...

I have the same issue. Tried everything it will not give me alerts to email or text messages. Wish I could figure this out...

A couple of things to try, change your messaging to hangouts (or other app), and see if you start getting notifications. When I switched to hangouts, I started getting the text message alerts. Then, when I switched back to the default app on my phone, the alerts (vibrations) continued. I had also gone into settings on the phone, I think it was under sound-notifications ... there was something in there that had email notifications turned off. I hadn't touched those settings, so I don't know how it got changed, but I recall there was something that seemed incorrect. I don't know if that was part of the problem or not...

I had a similar problem with my watch but only with vibrating. I figured out my problem was that if your phone doesn't vibrate, your watch won't vibrate. It actually mirrors the vibrate including custom vibration.

I have just hit the same problem, any solution guys? I get phone call notifications but nothing else no email or text message notifications...

Same problem... I get cards but no vibration. New watch. Motor vibrates when powering on.
