At first I thought the rom I flashed on my GS2X was screwed so I flashed a stock rom and found the same was happening. Sometimes when a call comes in the phone does not ring and appears to be in silent mode when it is not?
Anyone know of some 'feature' that may be causing this?

You could try something, and I know itl sound weird but,
Change your ringtone, I had it happen to me a few times when I tested some of the roms on here..
That usually helped for me.
Or simply to you have motion on? Lol if so turning it upside down mutes it lmfao
Go to settings>MOTION>turn over to mute xD
And if that is it, I'm not gonna pick on ye, my buddy was wining about the same thing couple months ago n it was that, he got it for a few weeks.. I had my fun..
Thanks. I use phoneweaver to automatically change ringers and volume levels based on location etc and I think the settings aren't 'sticking' properly. I have never had issues until now on this phone. I noticed when this app changes the screen brightness even though the new value is shown in settings it has not actually changed. Maybe the same thing was happening on the ringer? The last time a call came in with no ring I quickly rebooted without changes and it rang when I called the phone so who knows...
I'll test further.
I have Google Apps and am trying to ring my device remotely while its set to vibrate. It rings once at full volume then stops (its supposed to ring for five minutes at full volume). If I call my phone it makes a quick chirp and then goes into silent mode from vibrate (its supposed to stay at full volume). Can someone please test theirs?

Works fine for me.
In working with Google, the resolution was:
Paid Google Apps should use: https://www.google.com/apps/mydevices
Regular Android Consumers: https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager
Using the Google Apps link all the functionality works great.
It did the same thing for me. One ring at full volume, then fell back to silent.
The Google ID i have tied to this phone is my personal one, so I can only use the "Regular Android Customers"
Working fine here.
My wife uses the HTC One on T-Mobile, and we see this behavior on her phone as well. I don't remember my One on Verizon having this issue, but in fairness I never tried it until after I flashed CM 10.2. Anyway, it's not specific to the Verizon edition. Whether that's comforting or not, I can't say.

Same here. One ring only.
Old thread but the same for me.
Rings once.

Same here. Rings once, then unable to trigger again. Not sure what the retry threshold is supposed to be.
Just tested it with my Note3 and it does the same, rings only once no matter if the phone is set to vibrate or not. Although it seems to track it fine even though I'm indoors.
But I already had the chance to put this to good use a few weeks ago to find my father's S3. He called one evening upset and said he thinks he lost his phone on the golf course somewhere. I started to get mad at myself for not having installed one of the tracker apps on his phone. It was already near dark and we have heavy dew that would have ruined the phone overnight. So I called Verizon and asked if there was anything we could do. The rep asked if he had a Google account setup on the phone and whether or not GPS was on. I said yes to both and he instructed me how to login at Google.com and track the phone with Android Device Manager. It worked perfect. It pin-pointed the phone of the golf course and my father and I went to retrieve it. It was really dark by then and I was using my phone, signed into his Google account, to see the map. We went to where the map indicated the phone was but still didn't see it even with flashlights. So I clicked the ring option and we heard his ringtone clearly in the quiet darkness. It was less than 10 feet from where we were looking and it was lying face down it thick grass. Had it not been for the ringer, we may have overlooked it and just assumed the mapped location wasn't very accurate.
So that story had a happy ending and at least the ring option worked on the S3, but it still only rings once on my Note3. And when I immediately click the ring option a second time it doesn't ring at all. If I wait 30secs to a minute and try it again, it will ring but only once. My father had a song ringtone on his S3 and I just have one of the default ringtones on my Note3. Wonder if that makes a difference? Will have to test it sometime.
Also I'm curious to see if the device tracker will work well with GPS turned off? The rep asked me if GPS was turned on, and I knew my father gets good battery life and just leaves his GPS, Bluetooth, and WiFi on. I was so excited to see it track the phone that I forgot to ask if it would work with the GPS turned off. The battery on the Note3 also lasts about 2 days even with GPS and Wifi on, so I'm planning on leaving GPS on just in case.
So, with a Galaxy Note 5, just updated to Marshmallow 6.0.1, I can't get it to ring at all (didn't try with 5.1.1).

Yes it is.
So this morning I woke up to my Moto 360 vibrating at 5:17am. First I looked at my phone to see if there was an alarm set there, but there wasn't. I just dismissed it from my watch and went back to bed.
This is the first time this has happened, but I was curious to know if anyone else has experienced this before.
It just happened again. This time at 3:47am. What the hell is going on? Is my watch possessed?
your watch controls its own alarms. have you gone in to the apps and checked to see if you have a timer/alarm set up ?

I had no clue the watch had it's own alarm app. I thought it just tethered off the phone. Sure enough, there were two alarms in there which I never set. Now I'm curious to know how they got in there.
Oh well, they're deleted now, so they won't be waking me up any longer.
Thanks for your help!

i really wish there was an option to tether the two. it seems redundant, but if your phone isn't within arm's reach it would be handy both for setting and for responding.
Personally I think a vibrating is useless anyways. That wouldn't wake me up. Too bad it didn't have a small speaker for beeping.
I'm having issues, my phone goes into "Do Not Disturb" mode on it's own. I think it has something to do with the Android wear connection to my watch. I've reset the watch and checked to make sure it isn't set to turn on that mode. But still at random times my phone goes quiet. Curious to hear if anyone has had the same issue or a cure. Thanks!
yes i have the same issue with pixel xl & Huawei watch 🤔

I have the same issue as well. It also happens on calls.
It's a new feature in 7.1.1
You have to disable the automatic rules that are created in settings. I just deleted all the premade ones in there and my issue went away.

I have an Android Wear watch and have the same problem. Are you saying the deleting the built-in Weekend, Weeknight, and Event rules fixed it for you?

I have done this too and my phone goes into DnD mode when I make or take phone calls. It becomes an issue when I get off the phone about 50% of the time it stays in DnD mode and I have to manually turn DnD mode off. Anyone found a work around for this yet?
I posted this to fix it. Its a hidden menu https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/how-to-off-disturb-section-using-volume-t3598695
Has anyone solved this? My Pixel XL keeps turning DND on when I've manually turned it off. I do not use a smart watch or any other accessory. And I have already deleted the single Automatic Rule which I programmed (my phone didn't come with any pre-installed rules). I'm a doctor and keep missing super-important phone calls because my phone isn't ringing. (It's sitting in a cradle on my desk, charging -- so I know I'm not accidentally hitting the volume down button.)
Thanks!

The only sure fire way, if you're sure it's not an app you installed or setting you set, is to factory reset including wiping system OR flashing stock via fastboot. I mean technically if you had the time and you didn't wanna do all that you could boot the phone into safe mode, then wait and see if it does the same thing. If it doesn't , you know it's an app you have installed.
Anyone else having this problem. It's only just happened. I've unpaired, uninstalled software, done everything I can think of. My phone is connected to it but when I get a message etc it doesn't come up on my watch.

I've factory reset my phone and watch. Still not working. A phone call comes up on my watch so it must be a setting I can't work out.
Mine was working yesterday on a stock rooted rom on my phone, but not today on a modified rom. What are you running?

Hi,
I also had issues and did not recieve messages on my watch... (see: https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-watch/help/messages-arriving-watch-t3510071)
Did your recently reset your phone to factory settings?
Because the new version of Android Wear is asking for permissions to recieve notifications.
I did everything but the solution was simple for me:
Open the Android Wear app and on startup page there should be a blue notification which says something like klick here to enable notifications...klick this button and allow the notification permission and everything should work fine now.

You can also access that in Settings > Apps > Gear Icon (upper right) > Advanced / Special Access > Notification access, then toggle on the Android Wear if it is not on
Thanks a bunch... I went to the app and noticed it said not connected... Touch to reconnect... Had to do that 4x and it finally connected

I'm having the same problem only I've done all of the above and it's still not working.
Notifications work for everything except messages and gmail.
It's only been doing it since the watch updated to Android Wear 2.5.
I have reset both the phone and the watch to factory, deleted and reinstalled the apps and still nothing.

Same here after OTA update to 2.5 I can't receive notifications on my watch anymore..had to reset my phone and watch but still not working.
I wonder if there's a way to roll back to 2.0???

I don't know but I wish there was an easy way to go back to 2.0.
Hopefully someone far smarter than me will see this and tell us how easy it is ?
try to "sync all apps" again with the android wear app.. then shut down and restart the watch. This works until I rebooted my phone, then I had to do it again

It's obvious now that the current Android Wear app on the phone needs to be updated to become compatible with the 2.5.
My workaround to this issue was, which I've tested many times and worked so far, finger crossed!:
1-Turn the watch off
2-Turn the Bluetooth off on the phone
3-Turn the watch on completely
4-Turn on the Bluetooth on the phone.
The first notification will take 3-4 seconds to arrive.
Excellent effort. So far that seems to be working for me. I haven't received any messages yet but I'm getting my email notifications (which I wasn't before).
Thank You

That worked for me, thanks.
Oddly enough though, I followed the instructions step by step and actually had a facebook notification pop up on the watch immediately after it powered up but before I'd turned bluetooth back on on the phone!
@hagba Thank you very much those step work. I also noticed that google assistant doesn't work when you send your first query. You have to ask it something, click on the little colored dots then ask it the same thing again and it works. You have to do this everytime you make any request. Annoying. I hope the knuckleheads at Google will fix these annoying issues soon.

Myself I have no such problem with the Google assistant, it works fine from the first voice command without touching the colored dots, even "Ok Google" works well.

Worked for me, too. Got a message notification before I turned the Bluetooth back on, lol:good:
