Hello, I've read about 50 posts on different forums and found no solution to my issue. Hoping the wizards of XDA can help. I have unique notification sounds set up for various apps by going into the app's settings and selecting a unique tone. However, whenever a notification fires the default notification sound, under System Settings>Sound>Default Notification, constantly fires. The unique sounds I selected for Gmail, FB, Handcent, etc, will not play. Most likely I'm missing the obvious. Thanks.
Well, after half a day of my app notifiers not working, they are now working. Didn't do anything. I think my GS3 is just schizo.

I have Flexmail installed and in the sounds/notifications setting I have it so that it will flash the light, vibrate and sound when a new message has been received.
It's the same setting as I have for missed call, new VM, etc., etc...
However it doesn't work.
The messages show up on the notification section, and I have exactly the same settings as I did on my P4000
Any thoughts as to what the problem might be?
No thoughts?
**edit: just to confirm, any system notifications have no problems with the lights working, but things like Messenger aren't working. So it seems any 3rd party aps...
Any other thoughts... anyone?
Hi,
Being a recent convert from Windows Mobile, I'm noticing how the alarms and notifications of applications seems separate from each other rather than integrated. Has anybody else noticed this, or is it just me? Also, what is the technical difference between an alarm and a notification? Everything seems to be a notification rather than an alarm.
Is there any suggested techniques/configuration to ensure all of my apps use the same notifications/volumes etc without me having to go to every single app and configure it? Also is there a way to configure how the vibration works system-wide? Every single app seems to have their own settings and its a bit of a pain. I also prefer a "longer" vibration in case I miss something (the phone is usually in my pocket).
Also does anybody have recommendations regarding applications which can repeat or remind me for missed events? I want a repeat reminder that I have an appointment coming up, or have missed an SMS or a call (but haven't noticed it) or have received an e-mail? I just want something like to remind me every 5 minutes by playing the sound and/or vibrating, for about an hour - mainly just in case I haven't noticed it - but I don't want it going on forever in case I don't have the phone with me and it annoys others!
Thanks,
Ian
I've just downloaded Missed Reminder which does all that I think. Although it's not for calendar reminders, which is annoying.
Hopefully that will change in the future since I can't find anything else that does the same job for calendar reminders - or Google will sort it out and add repeaters.
Hi,
Using GNex with stock JB 4.11.
With my former dumb phone, when I missed a call or a msg, the phone made a brief sound notification periodically as a reminder. With the GNex, there is no reminder. I must wake up the phone and notice a tiny icon in the notification area. Is it possible to configure the GNex to remind by vibration & sound missed events (calls, message, and possibly calendar)?
Thanks.
Although people mostly recommend Light Flow (Light Flow Lite) for controlling the LED, it also controls notification sounds/vibration if you want. It can do repeating notification sounds on whatever interval you'd like.
Its a bit of a hassle to set up though because you need to turn off all notifications in the app natively, then use Light Flow as your only way of controlling them, iirc.
Hi,
Cool thanks. I will check that out. BTW, I find the periodic notification of missed events a useful feature. How come such an advanced device cannot do such a simple thing? I assume "simple" because that is what a dumb phone can do. Or is there any technical / logical reason for not doing this kind of notification in the world of smartphone?

I would assume that the repeat notification option isn't really as necessary when you have a really good notification system that keeps everything together in one place. Not to mention that people kinda live on their phones nowadays, so I guess they assume people won't be missing notifications that often.
GoSMS has the ability to have "reminders"
Whenever I get any notification e.g. from youtube, email etc..
an audio notification sound would play
The problem is, it keeps on playing and will not stop, even after I have opened that app or dismissed that app from the lockscreen
Also how can I disable notification sound for all these type of apps?
I can't find an option in the settings.

I am getting the same thing. Have had LineageOS 15.1 on my Tab S2 for a while now with no problems. Then, for no reason I understand, it has started doing this. When a notification triggers, the sound repeats 2-3 times per second .
I have mainly noticed this in the Naviator app when it notifies 'TFR Database Updated'. This doesn't seem to be an actual system notification; instead, it is a pop-up in the app but plays (it's own?) notification sound. After the pop-up disappears, the notification continues indefinitely. I thought the issue was isolated to that app. However I had it also happen with a system notification (though I can't remember which) where, after dismissing the notification, the sound continued to repeat for another 10-15 seconds.
Any help would be appreciated. I will try wiping the dalvik and system cache to see if that helps.
Hi, am new on this group.
I've purchased Vivo V9 a month back and I like this model. But, I am facing notifications issue in my Vivo V9.
Thing is, when I got notifications on Whatsapp, G-Mail, Missed Calls, Messages etc. so all of these notifications doesn't always shows up in the locked screen/notification tray etc. I am a freelancer and it's very important for me to keeping eye on my G-Mail, UpWork App (My Work Related App), Parallel Space (Using one useful clone app on this), Skype etc. But most of the times, I don't get any notifications on the locked screen even sometimes on the notification tray. I've checked with all the settings such as each app's notifications/permissions settings, general notification settings etc. everything. Even, restored my phone for two times. But, I always missed few of my important notifications. i.e. I've setup Whatsapp to show all the notifications one the locked screen, pop-up, notification tray etc. but whenever i got message on Whatsapp, it makes sound, popup appeared, showed in notification tray but doesn't show in locked screen.
Moreover, sometimes the notifications doesn't shows up even on a notifications tray.
I wanted to know that is somebody facing this kind of issue on this model? If so, what did you do to resolve this? Or, if someone has idea of all the possible reasons for this issue?
Thanks!
