[Q] Some issues with CM7.2 - Samsung Galaxy Gio GT-S5660

I am facing a couple of issues that I can't find a solution to it, so I thought I share them with you hoping that you can help me solve them.
When I receive an email there comes a notification sound (which is ok ) but if I delete the same message from my laptop that I had just received, the notification sound once again appears. This happens everytime regardless if I receive or delete any messages.
When browsing with the installed browser or Delphin browser, when I want to return to the previous page, it brings me back to the top of that page and not to the place where I was reading that page. The topic I was reading could have been at the middle of that page and I want the browser to bring me back to the same place as I was.
I can't find the place to disable the notification sound, last time I did it was for couple of months ago, I guess it was in: Setting ->Cyanogenmode setting -> and Interface. I need to disable it as I sometimes receive emails in the middle of night and is driving me crazy.
thanks in advance

I dont think you can disable the notifications, but with cm you can set silent hours in wich ur phone will shut up.

You can disable the notification sound by going into Settings -> Sound -> Notification ringtone, and selecting silent (at the top).
Or go to Settings -> Sound -> Volume, uncheck use incoming call volume for notifications, and set notification volume to 0.

Message Vibrate Not Working

I've been running the latest CM7 nightlies for a while now and starting about a week ago, the vibrate function stopped working when I received text messages. I use Chomp SMS and I've changed the settings in there, in the standard messaging app, and in the general sounds category in settings. The phone still vibrates for everything else - games, alarms, phone calls, etc.
Any ideas? I'd rather not have to do a full reset.

Did you change the notification settings in the stock messaging app?
Messaging > menu > settings > notification settings > vibrate > "vibrate always"
Yes I did that. Any other ideas?

Shot in the dark, are you using the notifications drop-down power widgets? I had an issue a while back that when I used those to adjust the volume/vib/silent toggle, it would turn off vibrate in the global settings when moving back and forth between "vibrate" and "all sounds on".
Just make sure that your global settings are correct and then dont change anything then test the notification with an incoming SMS.
Other than that I'm out of ideas.
I tried changing the global settings again and in the process realized that it vibrates now when the phone is set to "silent" mode, but when I turn on the volume again the vibrate goes away. I set every single notification setting I could find to vibrate always so this is super confusing.

Try setting up a notification power widget. And under 'widget buttons' scroll all the way down to 'sound modes' and select one of the options where the first one is "sound+vibrate". Toggle to this mode from the notification pull-down and see if that toggles it. (I personally use 'Sound+Vib/Vib/Silent').
I found that the stock settings and CMsettings often mess eachother up.
I ended up flashing back to a backup from 2 weeks ago - it was worth the time because the vibrate settings are completely back to normal. Thanks for the help, though, I'll keep it in mind for future reference in case this happens again.

Facebook notifications

Is anyone else experiencing issues with push notifications on our device i have never had one on stock or cyan has anyone got it to work???
Notifications show up on my lock screen but no alert or sound to tell me that they have arrived?
Go to the main screen where you can access your news feeds,profile,friends,chat,messages etc and press the menu button to get into settings.
Once there turn on anything you want to be alerted for and set a ringtone for it.

Gmail Notification Using Ringtone When Set to Silent

Hi, I have a Gmail account setup on my GN, which is set to show a notification icon, but the notification sound is set to silent. Even so, when I get an email it sounds my ringtone (not even my default notification sound!).
The only way to stop this is to turn off new mail notifications completely, which means I don't even get an icon, so I'm constantly opening my gmail to see if I've received anything.
Does anyone else have this problem, or am I doing something wrong?
Hi, I have been trying to do the same thing but no luck. How did you turn off the gmail sound notifications in the first place? I looked everywhere.
By the way there must be a way we can control all the incoming notifications. I would like them to be displaying but silently. How is this achievable?
Hi, I thought this thread had been forgotten about!
I bodged mine in the end, thus:
1. Go to gmail and use the menu to go to 'settings',
2. Select the email address you want to configure,
3. Tick the email notifications checkbox,
4. Tap 'Ringtones & Vibrate',
5. Select silent for ringtone and vibrate only in silent mode.
(now the bodge)
6. Go to the phone settings screen and select 'Sound',
7. Set vibrate to never.
Told you it was a bodge! If you find a better way, please let me know

Cyanogen Mod not vibrating on notifications

I jump around from ROM to ROM. Lately, I've gone from CM7 to CM9 back to CM7 Kangs and then back to the latest CM7.2RC1.
On that last transfer I lost the ability to get vibrating notifications with SMS/MMS/Gmail et cetera.
I searched high and low for the answer and here it is: download the free app Soundmanager (original or v2) on the market. In the app go into the vibration settings and adjust.
This frustrated me to no end for a week until I found this fix on another forum.
Don't know if you are able to do it but when I go in my girls INC2 messaging app I hit menu> settings> notification settings and in there should be your vibration settings. Hope this helps.

yeah, I've been using GoSMS, and all the notification settings were set up appropriately
Thank you for this, this is exactly the problem I was having and exactly the solution I needed

I'm having this problem on my GNexus. I flashed CM9 and it works great so far, but I wasn't getting notifications. Today I noticed that when I hold down the power button and put it in vibrate the icon goes right to silent. Same when I turn the volume all the way down, and when I select vibrate from the sound settings menu. I'll try the solution above, but its kind of a serious bug IMO.
I noticed that it won't vibrate unless it is set to vibrate and ring in the notification widget.

Should be an option in profiles on cm7 to set an override for that, didn't have cm9 on long enough to remember but I think it did too.

There is a very appropriate approach to this issue.

Get to Messaging (SMS) Press Touch Menu key (The left most key on your front -Defy MB525) get to settings and scroll down to see the fishy thing
Though we have set the profile and notification to vibrate it does only with calls and may be with few other things but not SMS / Notifications atleast....
So the message settings... find Notifications > Vibrate is set to never > change as you prefer..!
So once again..
Messaging > Settings > Notifications > Vibrate (Never) - Default change as you choose...! Way to Go!!!
Hello all!
This weekend I finally mod my smartphone and guess what!? no vibration on notifications!!
I tried every single combination of the sound settings and the notification settings under messaging, and still doesn't work, incoming calls vibrate but not the notifications.
After almost a year after the last post in this thread, is there a fix for this issue?

Notifications: vibrating when vibration is off

hey gang,
I just got a Pixel 2XL and for Gmail and WhatsApp even though I've got vibration off in the system settings as well as in the app, the damn thing still vibrates when a notification comes in.
This happens on both mine and my brothers 2XL, are we missing a trick?
I've tried to reset app settings but issue persists.

android 10 - build QQ1A.191205.008 - fresh install
Thanks!
Also happening here... I have spent many hours but haven't found a solution
So the way I found around this is to turn off vibration under Accessibility > Vibration and haptic strength.
Not ideal but it works and the phone will still vibrate if a call comes in.

Did you try switching off the vibration from WhatsApp settings -> Notifications -> Vibrate?
Oops, I see that you have already tried that. Never mind!

Hey guys, finally I've come to a solution after hours of searching and experimenting.
For your information I'm using a Pixel 2 XL running stock Android 10 December build (latest).
I narrowed down the problem by making notification tests with apps other than WhatsApp, like Telegram and Messages (from Google).
The problem:
When setting WhatsApp's notification preference to "Silent" (in Android's App info) - having WhatsApp own settings to no vibration neither sound - the very next message received will turn "Silent" option back to "Alerting". This will make phone vibrate (if phone on vibration mode), regardless of your preference of no vibration.
Note that this problem occurs only when phone is on vibration mode.
It happens with WhatsApp and Telegram but doesn't with Messages, making it clear that it's a bug of the app and not of Android itself.
The solution:
1) Adjust WhatsApp's own settings as your wish (if your reading this probably you don't want group message vibration neither sound).
2) Open Android's App Info and tap Notifications
3) Select group or message notifications
4) KEEP IT ALERTING
5) Choose Advanced
6) Tap Sound, then My Sounds
7) Choose None
8) Save
That's it.
It seems to me that faulty apps like WhatsApp and Telegram are currently not able to set None value to the notification sound. And, since Android turns sound to vibration when on vibrate mode, those apps will vibrate regardless of user setting.
The procedure described above will ultimately set None sound directly to Android system, shortcutting the apps poor programming.
Thanks for reading this and please give feedback whether it helped you.
