Hey Guys,
i went from Kitkat with root to Lollipop.
No Silent Mode anymore, I Know that google changed it.
But is there just a simple Workaround to set all Sound quiet, but Alarm Clock should work - and also - the LED should Blink in different Colors but no Vibration or Sound.
In KitKat i used the Silent Mode - and just looked every now and then if my Flashlights are Blinking.
Is there any way to get back there?
yes it is possible - just use vibration mode and in settings turn vibrations off.

I have the Sprint version of the Touch Pro 2. My preferred ringer setting is "vibrate and ring". However, if I temporarily switch to either vibrate or silent mode, when I turn the volume back on, it goes back to the "ring only" setting. Is there any way to have it return to my preferred setting?
Same problem here, and it is driving me nuts! I go from quiet to noisy environments and it is causing me to miss calls. Someone please help!!!
I spoke with HTC tech support today. They were able to reproduce the issue on a phone they had on hand and acknowledged the problem and created a case file. They said it will be researched and fixed in a future software update.
how do i turn off vibrate for new emails/sms when in vibrate mode?
how do i turn off vibrate for new emails/sms when in vibrate mode? it's a bit annoying
when i'm in silent mode, i want it to vibrate for some features i.e. combo.
is there any way to get rid of the blinking light for notifications?
I want to make a profile that will turn of the led lights (home menu back and search) during the night.
Right now when I unlock my phone the lights come on and they are very bright at night.
I know there are other apps to do this but I am trying to stay away from that option if I can do it with Tasker.
I tried the task/audio/notification pulse - off
But that didn't work.
Hello all!
I'm coming here from an exploding Note 7, returned that and have a temporary HTC Desire 530 as a placeholder (it sucks hard). Trying to decide if I want this phone or not. I have one question I haven't seen discussed.
Can you put the phone in silent mode without turning on Do Not Disturb mode? DND mode makes both my Android Wear and my TizenOS smartwatches worthless.
In the phone I have right now when you put the phone in silent it turns on Do Not Disturb mode, meaning my watches get NO notifications. I loved on my last few phones I could have a silent phone, but still get notifications from both the notification light and my watch. In my current phone if you turn off DND mode then it goes into vibrate mode which vibrates extremely loud on my desk at work. My only option has been to get a silent mp3 file for my ringtone and notification sounds. PITA switching sounds when I get home from work every day.
If you can put the phone in silent mode (no vibrate for notifications/ringing, no sound for notifications/ringing) but still get vibration notifications on smart watches and the notification light then I'm sold!
Can anyone shine some light on this for me?
This HTC Desire 530 is sucking my will to live. I need subtle vibration notifications on my wrist throughout the work day on projects/emails/etc with a silent (and not vibrating) phone.
This isn't a limitation of the phone or the phone specific software, this is simply how android marshmallow and up works

Not on the LG G4, LG G5 or Galaxy Note 7. On both those devices I can drop the phones volume down to silent mode and it still:
A) Turns on the notification light
B) Vibrates my Android Wear watch
I have no idea what genius thought they should create a mode that nixes one of the main smart watch selling points baked right into the OS. =(
I want notifications on my wrist without my phone vibrating - why is that such a crazy thing? lol
If anything I should be able to disable Do Not Disturb mode and restore regular normal functional silence mode through a custom ROM or root or something... maybe?
Also you didn't say if this does this for sure. If you set your OP3 into silent mode, can you still allow ALL notifications in this mode? I know the OP3 is supposed to be customizable but I'm not sure to what extent.
Hey there. I have some trouble with the alert slider, not working how I need it to be working. Here are my settings and how I use it:
* Silent Mode: Does not vibrate and turns off media sound
* DND: Accepts only calls, which were made in between 3 minutes
* Normal: Just normal Rings and vibrates
So, also I have installed the Tiles app to add an extra Ringing Mode Tile to enable an vibrate only mode in the normal mode. My problem or assumption was now,
that I want the silent mode behave like the normal mode when I get called. To make this clear, when I get an call in the normal mode the screen turns on and displays
the phone app. But this ist not how it works in the Silent Mode. Instead the screen stays of and shows the notification via the "Always On Display". This notification
is not very visible, causing some missed calls...
I thought the Silent Mode only disables all sound but behaves otherwise like the normal mode. Is there something I can do to make it behave like I described or an alternate way?
Silent mode is when the switch is all the way to the top. In that mode, the screen does turn on.
Just flip the switch up to silent and then when that little settings pop-up comes, click it and go into alert settings and you can then turn vibration on and off for the silent mode section.
My screen does not turn on. It just stays black and an small notification is shown. I'll try it again...
I am on latest OOS nougat.
I had posted this question on the rom thread they I'm running - AquariOS - but thought I'd open this up for discussion here as I suspect it's a 'feature' rather a bug.
Is it still possible to have the notification light on when in modes do not disturb etc? I just want a mode that disables ringtones and vibrate but still allows for the LED notification light. In some situations for example at work, I'm happy for my phone to be out on the table, wishing for no sound/vibration to occur but be able to check the notification light for notifications.
I'm using Light Manager to handle my custom app light settings and when I activate do not disturb mode and attempt to test the LED settings (clicking 'test' and turning the screen off) it doesn't light up. So it's definitely the case that these modes disable the light.
I don't want to use ambient mode and I've tested the notification light in Alarms Only do not disturb, alarms only and priority and seemingly all of them block the light entirely - happy to be corrected if I've missed a setting!
Running latest AquariOS 8.1 rom.
Hopefully this is possible and without the need for a third party app...
Any suggestions?
Could the setting you're looking for be 'allow visual disturbances' or visual signals in notification settings?

Thanks for responding.
Well to answer this question, I don't have any of the "block..." when screen is off options under the Block Visual Disturbances section (see attached), which unfortunately doesn't appear to solve this....
Just want to be able to have the light on in a non-sound and non-vibrate mode, given the little LED light hardly 'disturbs' me!

Did you find a solution for your problem? I am having the same problem with OmniRom.

Nope, never did.
I *think* it's an Android 'feature', rather than a bug. Just wish it was optional and be able to have that little light disturb me instead of a complete unresponsive phone when a notification would come on in the do not disturb mode.... I wish for a 'no vibrate but light' mode...
