Notifications - LG Optimus G (International)

Any way to make my phone screen light up everytime I receive a notification? Currently it only vibrates (i'm on silent) and flashed the notification LED so I can't tell which app's notification it is. Thanks in advance

If you install xposed you can use the smsxposed module to make your phone wake on new text messages. I think there's one for voicemails as well. Might even be one for all notifications.

Notifications keep stopping?

So every now and then my notifications will just randomly stop. I will get texts but the notification will not appear on my status bar, and my notification light won't blink either. Phone won't vibrate, nothing.
Only starts working again when I reboot. Happened on 2 different rom and kernel combos. First time, CM9 + Jame Bond and now AOKP and Franco 181. Anyone know how to fix this problem? It's really annoying.
No my notification is not set to off nor do I have any power saving mode.
Do you have any secondary apps that cause the notification to seem like it's already been viewed/opened, such as SMS Popup?

[Q] Handcent & Jelly - Notification LED

I have a strange issue with Handcent SMS after flashing Jelly Bean
The notification LED turns blue whenever the screen is off or is showing the lockscreen.
As soon as i unlock the GNex, the notification LED turns off.
The problem disappears if i uninstall Handcent and reappears on reinstall.
Has anyone else experienced this or have any idea how to fix it?

Its suppose to do that.... its the apps secondary notification.
Go into settings for handcent and find notification, notification settings, LED settings

Yeah, but only when i have an unread text, and stays on even if the phone is unlocked.
The issue i'm having is there even when there is no unread texts

[Q] Gmail 4.2 not respecting vibrate setting?

My GNex is running 4.2 now, and I've noticed that when the phone is on silent, the phone vibrates when new gmail messages come in. If I check the settings, it specifically says "Never" under vibrate settings.
Has Google changed Gmail's vibrate behavior in 4.2 so that Never actually means Sometimes?
Can anyone confirm?
I hope this gets fixed!

Yes, I have the same issue, for both Gmail and Calendar
It vibrates in ALL notifications. Someone knows how to disable it?
Regards!
Just a hunch, but I tried it and it worked. If you don't care about not having any notification for gmail (sound or vibrate) then set the notification sound to silent and vibrate never. Unfortunately you won't get sound if you want that, but at least it's not vibrating now.

I want to keep the vibration on for stuff like text messages, just not email. When I'm at work I can read my email on my computer, so I turn my phone to vibrate so that it's not beeping all day long. With 4.2, I've replaced beeping with vibrating. It's very annoying.
Google, never means NEVER!

This works for gmail, but not the email app that I use for my work email.

I'm having the same issue, and it's very annoying. I want to keep the image in the notification bar, but I don't want it to vibrate - like I had before the 4.2 update. I even tried toggling the notifications off and on and toggling between "only on silent" and "Never," but it continues to vibrate. I only want my phone to vibrate for text messages/google voice messages.
There is at least one bug ticket raised for this.

Star it to get it some attention.
Possible solution
Possible solution, for those of you who usually only run between sound and vibrate mode on your phone. Just go into the gmail settings and toggle the vibrate to "only in silent mode" you won't get a vibrating notification...
That's what I just set mine to do.

This didn't work for me. Always vibrates when in vibrate mode no matter what I have set. Funny enough, when I set the phone to silent mode there is no vibration even when it is set to 'Only in silent mode'.
I just hope this is identified as a bug and wasn't done on purpose. It's going to be an annoying few weeks while I wait for another OTA.
Any update to this? I'm having the same problem with text messages vibrating.
Same issue here. I have a custom 4.2 ROM flashed with this problem. I even tried reverting back to stock and reflashing. That did not solve the problem.
Same problem for me with official 4.2 OTA update, on a yakju galaxy nexus
That's no GMail bug, unfortunately it's a new "feature" introduced in Android 4.2. If you ar looking at the commits in AOSP, you can see it is a new system wide sound-to-vibrate conversion feature.
If you change the phone to vibrate mode, all applications which are playing notification sounds are then vibrating. Genious!
It should be possible to deactivate vibration therefor if you disable the notification sound in the specific app.

Xposed LED control module not working

So I can't stand this 9 second wait in between blinks so I installed xposed framework and the LED control module.
I cannot get this working correctly? Anybody have this working successfully?
If enable per say the messaging one. When I get a message it does not work. If I turn the screen on, then back off, it will work...but obviously that isn't right.
Any thoughts/suggestions? Thanks everyone!
Verizon G3, rooted
Well I finally figured it out. In the phones standard notification settings, every option needs to be checked. I had unchecked incoming calls and downloaded apps. So once I checked every option in there it is now working! Yay! Not sure why but that fixed it
Are you running the standard version only or unlocked version?
I could only get the messaging app to correctly show LED notification, i couldn't get the phone app to display LED for missed call. Could you?

In the Settings --> Display --> Advance Settings --> Notification light is it On and do you have all the options checked? (e.g. Missed calls & messages)

What's App messages not vibrating the watch...help?

I get the notification on the watch when I receive a new message. However it doesn't vibrate so I don't know its where until I look at it. Other apps like gmail vibrates the watch. Does anybody know how to make whatsapp notifications vibrate as well?
thanks
You have to change the actual notification setting in the app for whatsapp. There isn't a special section for wear you just have to change notifications to vibrate as well.
