So I'm loving my G3 but there is a small issue that I'm having. I have my general notifications set to one sound and my ring tone set to another like I have with every other Android phone I've owned. For the most part everything works perfect, but several times I got a notification and it played my ring tone. Not for one single app either, it was different ones. Some apps I could check the notification sound and within the app it had it set for the ring tone. I change it, but other apps don't give that option, like games.
Anyone have any suggestions on how I might be able to correct this?

Still having this issue. It seems like any app that has notifications that I cant manually assign a sound to within the app settings will sometimes use the ringtone sound rather than the notification sound. Has no one else had this problem?

hi. I am having an issue with my stock galaxy s 3 alarm. When I set the alarm to a time and set with vibration and melody and pick any song (sounds or my files) it will only vibrate. I know I haven't blown the speaker because it still plays music from it. Can anyone help me with my problem?

Still stock. No roots or attempts to root
Never mind. I found out what was wrong. Appearently with the new update they moved alarm volume with default volume. Not notifications. So now I have to have my sound on to have an alarm.
Can anyone suggest an app that will mute all other volumes without muting my main sound? And possibly put it back to the way I had it after? And it needs to be free until I can get a credit card or Google accepts visa debit.
Edit: also the app must be able to work on a non rooted phone. Hopefully I'm not asking for a whole lot or posting in the wrong spot.

That's weird. I always keep my phone on vibrate at night too. Try another alarm app. I've found the Samsung default alarms to be unreliable anyways.

They all do. I tried a good portion of ones including DoubleTwist alarm.

I am looking for an app that will override volume, vibrate, and silence settings for a contact.
The contact is for my local 911 dispatch center. It can txt out our fire pages.
I want it to sound a dedicated notification tone regardless if the phone is on vibrate or silence.
Thanks!!
id love to know this as well.

Id love to know if there was on out there as well ... I had a hard enough time finding a good ringtone replacement (went with Ringo lite) that I gave up on looking for those specific features.

I believe you could also use Tasker to set your phone exactly as you want for this action. For example, I know I can set all my volumes to max when I am getting a call from my wife. Not that I would do that ...

My ring tone does not work every time yet other notifications work all the time. I have changed the sound but still the same. Slider is down.
Have I missed a setting?
Doh I have just realised there are 3 settings on the slider all good now
Lol. Good to know u sorted it out ?

Txt tone (notification tone) gets cut off constantly while using Verizon's "Message+"
Anybody else having problems with text tones getting cut off? I have tried several different notification tones and it seems to get cut off nearly every time I get a text. Sometimes it'll play half of the tone then stop and other times it'll play maybe 75% of the tone and stop. Have no clue what is going on, the notification tones are not corrupt or anything if I play them in another audio app it plays the whole thing just fine. I use Message+, does this have something to do with it? I can try another messaging app I suppose but I really like Message+.
Anybody else having similar issues?
Yeah, it's happening to me too on Outlook email notifications. At first I thought it was my custom tones, but it's doing it with the stock tones as well.

One thing I have noticed on the 3 so far is, for many of my apps, the notification sound I set for it never plays. I always get the default phone notification sound for those apps.
When I go in the app to check or change it, its still on the the notification sound I picked in the first place.
Why are certain apps, which allow you to pick a different sound, only playing default sound, while others that I changed are playing that changed sound? For instance, Ive been using TweetCaster for over 5 years now. Always had the same notification tone set for it and it played perfectly on every phone before the P3XL. The file is still in the Audio file for Notifications as it should it. It plays the sound when I click it. But when an update for TC comes through, it just plays the default notification sound in the phone setting.
EDIT: After much searching, I finally found a thread on Reddit that explained how to do it. It's a way deeper dive than just the usual pool I was used to...
