Hi everyone
I was wondering if someone could help me with this. Thing is I didn't want to upgrade to lollipop but the phone started restarting by itself, freezing and a screen with "facebook has stopped" or "google services has stopped" will appear constantly in the las few days. I had to perform a factory reset and when I did, the phone upgraded by itself to lollipop. Everything seemed to be working fine but now even I assign an specific notification tone for each contact whenever I receive a whatsapp message it will not work and the standard notification tone will sound instead. I was so used to identify whoever was whatsappin' me just by the notification tone and now I can't. Do you know if this is a common issue related to the lollipop upgrade? or does it have to do with the factory reset and I might need to uninstall/install the whatsapp app? If this has todo with the l upgrade it will be so frustrating because nowadays nobody on the world actually calls but texts and it is more useful to have an specific notification sound for each texter... Thank you guys
Try this
Install latest WhatsApp, & from WhatsApp settings set individual notification tones

Hey guys, first post here of many hopefully.
Been following this thread from near the beginning and have finally got my hands on a HTC Desire via Vodafone Twitter deal
Absolutely love this phone and it's the envy of all my friends which is never a bad thing. I'm constantly discovering new things which is awesome and I'm pleased I came and saw the Android side.
Anyway, I've come across a problem.
When receiving texts, I've noticed that the phone will not vibrate. I've made sure that vibrate setting in the Messaging settings is green ticked and that Notifications is ticked. But still not working. It works when i'm rang just not when texted.
Have tried using Handcent messaging app but had the same problem... What can I do?
Thanks guys
I've had the same problem since I got mine two weeks ago.
Have you resolved this in any way? It's bloody annoying!
Hmm, strange... seems to work on my phone ok.
Since you have already tried Handcent, try the app "Sound Manager," from the Android Marketplace. Use "vibrate settings" toggled "vibrate whenever possible," and it see if that works.
Other than that, backup your data and try a hard reset (also try without SD card inserted) to eradicate any potential software bugs.
Tried sound manager, still no help.
I can get calls and notifcations to vibrate when on the normal profile and set them to vibrate, but on my normal profile I want sound only, so have vibrate turned off. When I change to the vibrate only profile, it will only vibrate for calls and not notifications.

Hi.
I have Gmail app, and I've set the account NOT to vibrate. However I still get the vibration upon every Gmail notification.
Is there some kind of system setting overriding this? How do I fix?

Experiencing the same thing and can't figure it out. would love to know how to shut it off. didn't happen w/ my G2
Experiencing the same. Very keen to find out why.
Are you guys on unrooted? I'm rooted, some xposed settings and I have several irritating bugs that elude any fixing. Some I have to fix by installing 3rd party apps. Some like vibrations just can't be addressed until the bugs are removed.
Rooted with xposed here. I have a feeling it did this on full stock too.

I have the same problem
I have a brand new LG G3 from Verizon. I'm running 4.2.2 VS98510B operating system and Gmail version 4.9 (1271612). I am unable to get the phone to notify without vibrating when I get an email to my gmail account. (I have no other email accounts set up on the phone.) Its as if the "Vibrate" toggle found under Settings >> myEmailAddress >> Inbox sound & vibrate is completely broken. Is this a known bug? Is there a work around? Thanks
Hi All,
This is kind of a "What has happened since upgrade" question. Got my Marshmallow upgrade a week ago but other than that everything worked as it should. I got fed up with the battery drain so decided to do a factory reset. All went well but I have a lingering issue with Business Calender 2 and "Do Not Disturb" I was wondering if anyone uses this app and could test something for me or comment.
I use Do Not Disturb from 10:30pm to 7am and I have all calls allowed through but no notifications I have no apps ticked as a priority so that to me means any calls I get, all notifications register but do not give any sound.
Business Calender 2 however manages to get round this somehow and no matter how I set it up other than totally silent BC2 notifcations are still audible while the system is on DND. I want to know if its normal or something I have done so am asking if anyone else can check in any way or has had experience.
All other apps, Chrome, whatsapp, text, FB etc show in the status bar but do not sound.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
As an update, I removed BC2 and even with the inbuilt calender app it does the same thing. I looked at an old G3 I had running 5.1 and that has a tick box to allow calender notifications which I didnt have ticked so I think maybe that when I upgraded the G4 from 5.1 to 6 that setting stayed somehow and then when I factory reset it was gone.
I will also note here that I have searched everywhere and it appears that native Android 6.0 has toggles for calender and events to let through on priority screen which they were on 5.1 but they are nowhere to be seen in my priority screen on my G4.. Very frustrating, where have they gone?
It is annoying though as no notifications to me should include the calender.
Oh well..
Guys,
Can I just ask someone here with a non rooted LG G4 running Marshmallow to put their phone into "Do Not Disturb" and then set a calender appointment while its in that state and let me know whether the notifcation is audible or if the "Do Not Disturb" suppresses it. That way I will know one way or the other as a rebuild to find out is a little excessive and I dont know anyone else with a G4.
Appreciated.

I confirm that the calendar reminder notification ignores the "Do not disturb" status and is audible. Strange indeed..
Since Wileyfox migrated from CyanogenMod to plain Android they have allowed a really annoying bug to creep in: SMS alerts are played at full volume in the earpiece during an active voice call.
Apart from being super annoying it might be dangerous in some cases as depending on the volume of the chosen tone, it might damage someones hearing.
Our device is running the stock 7.1.2 ROM which is the first release in which we noticed it.
In previous release, and almost every other device we can think of, the SMS alert during a voice call is either a simple pip or nothing at all.
Are you affected by this too? Have you found a solution (apart from a custom ROM or new phone)?
There seems no way around this in the phone setup and it seems to us that WF need to fix it. If you agree then please take a look at this FB post and vote it up - it may be we can get an update issued:-

Thanks for reading.
SOLUTION: SMS Alert during voicecall.
For anyone interested we have found a solution: Replace the stock messaging app with Google Messages.
This can be downloaded from Play Store here:-
Google Messages
It seems the stock messaging app somehow gets around or ignores the "Override Do Not Disturb" setting as shown in the attached screenshot.
Hope this helps. :good:
Hi!
First of all, I'm new to this phone - I owned it for about 2 weeks. and I'm very happy with it. Nonetheless I have noticed an issue that I hope someone can help me out with:
Since the phone doesn't have the notification LED, I have tried out a couple of apps to facilitate this function. I ended up uninstalling them. Now I experience that some notifications are not coming through (so far I've noticed text messages). I'm trying to figure out whether this is an issue with the phone, or if it might have something to do with the notification apps that I tested? I configured the apps and settings/permissions as necessary to get them to work, but I never reset those same settings before I uninstalled.
The issue I am facing is e.g. if a text message is sent to my phone (with display not on), the text and/or notification randomly doesn't get through until I wake the phone. After waking it, the message comes through immediately. Could this have something to do with testing those notification apps? If so, is there any way to find the specific settings and reset them or am I facing a factory reset to get it to work properly again?
Any help or hint is appreciated
