Random Default Notification - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note5

Every minute or so my Note 5's default sound notification (dew drops is what I have it set to) goes off. It started happening yesterday. I can't figure out what is triggering it, nothing shows up in the status bar after hearing the notification. I believe I had the phone in my pocket and may have turned on something in settings by mistake? Any ideas what could be causing this? It's super annoying but I don't want to make the default notification silent all the time. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mine started to do that also. I shut off Google now notifications and it quit. Not sure if that was the issue but it helped

I had this problem and another member found the solution for me it's simple...
Settings --> Accessibility-->Notification reminder
Set that to OFF
Enjoy

That was it! No idea how it got turned on. Ty ty!

I had the same problem and I do use notifications for email and texting so I went to Default Notification and just set it to silent. That fixed it and have no problems since that worked for me

Notification Vibrate Disabled if Ringer Set to Vibrate

Hi
About a month ago my phone stopped vibrating when I received SMS or whatsapp messages if my Ringer was set to vibrate.
Strangely, the option for notification vibrate becomes disabled or "greyed out" if i switch the ringer to 'vibrate'. (see pics)
It does vibrate just fine for a call- just not for notifications.
I am stock rooted, I was on 5.1.1 then updated to Marshmallow 6.0.1 -- no difference.
I've played with all the settings I can think of, with no help.
Any thoughts?
Apparently I'm not the only one, as I found this guy asking the identical question with a S6 edge on a different forum.

Nobody?
It's a strange glitch- no one has experienced a phone that vibrates fine for a call, but doesn't give the option to vibrate for a notification or text?
Some notification vibration settings must be set for that app. The screenshot you posted shows that notifications are set to vibrate.

Ah! Thank you so much for someone finally replying.
I must not have explained the screenshots correctly--- In the second screenshot-- I have set my RINGER to vibrate (as in for the phone).... and magically ALL NOTIFICATIONS GO SILENT (for every app and including SMS) -- not even vibrate--- and I lose the ability to change them to vibrate.
It used to be simple. Ringer set to ring, Notifications (whether for SMS, or any other app like calendar or whatsapp) would also ring. Ringer set to vibrate- notifications (again for all apps and SMS) would also go to vibrate.
Importantly I also would have control of the relative volumes/vibrations in both settings.
Now I only have that ability when the ringer is set to ring. If i set the ringer to VIBRATE--- then the notifications get totally silent-- -and are 'greyed out' so I can't change them.
It's weird.
Maybe I can't seem to explain it clearly, but I'm trying.
Thanks for the reply.
I am having the exact same issue. Have you ever figured out a solution?

Sorry for the delay.
The answer is .... sort of....
The graying out issue never resolved, but magically it DOES vibrate now with messages. Perhaps that started to work with one of the updates I've installed.
Still seems bizarre to me, but as long as the functionality returned... i guess that is good enough.

Question regarding notification settings on the phone.

Hello i'm new to this forum and new to Samsung, so this is a question that i have that i have to ask because i can't seem to find a solution. I don't know if its a bug or not.
So when i bought the phone i set it up to fit me with various settings and changes, however one setting that can't be changed (or it changes itself back to default) is the notification settings for a specific app.
I use telegram and i get a notification from time to time. So i decided to mute the sound and to turn off the vibration from the notifications menu in the phone for that specific app. But the problem is that the settings stays like this for only 20 minutes and then it resets itself to default i tried to change it again and again and it keeps resting. I tried it changing it even in the app itself, but again i keep getting a sound and vibration notification.
What i'm doing wrong? Am i doing anything wrong at all? Or is it that the phone is buggy?
Try modifying "Sound and Notifications" inside Telegram instead of phone notification settings

Glad it worked

No incoming call popup when using phone.

If I am reading on my phone and a call comes in I don't get any visual popup to answer or decline. The phone rings but I have to pull down the notification bar in order to answer.
I usually keep do not disturb on at all times with only favorites allowed through so don't know if it's the problem or something else is.
For example, if one of my kids calls I hear it ring but I have to search/ take extra steps in order to answer the call.
This only seems to happen with the screen on. I believe it works fine when screen is off.
How do I fix this?
Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks. I actually already had that setting checked.
I ended up finding another setting that seems to have fixed it. Can't remember where I found it but as long as it's working........
Glad you found it, had the same problem and I think I found the setting you did. For anyone else with this problem, in the Do Not Disturb setting, under Hide Notifications, there are settings that can be toggled for both screen on and screen off situations. Adjusting these should fix the issues.
Cheers,

Sound push notification issue

I have a problem with the sound notification from one app. Basically I turned on all permissions, auto start, all the stuff I could find on youtube still I don't receive sound and vibration notification from the app. It is a simple app where you get notified with two beeps sound 15 minutes before set time and I have floating notification and visual when the phone is in my hand, but when it is locked it doesn't notify me, it is shown on lock screen but doesn't awake the mobile phone and doesn't reproduce sound notification. Hope someone can help me, thank you in advance. Also on the dropdown menu and lock screen some facebook notifications are cut in half, are those MIUI system problems, or should I consider returning the phone because of some kind of error of this particular phone.

I had a similar issue with notifications and I fixed it by enabling "notification access" to "xiaomi service framework" in system settings. If that doesn't work, I'd try factory resetting.

I don't think it will work, but my question is how to add exceptions to the security and cleaner I assume that is a problem?

Question Any option to do LED notification?

Couldn't find a setting to make "Always On" show me a signal on screen for missed calls or messages.
Anyone found a solution for that?
This is my only issue with this great phone. I thought it was a fault at first. I get one animation then the 10 sec AOD or I have to keep the AOD on all the time.
I have no idea why there is no option to keep the AOD going until you acknowledge/read the notification. I really hope it’s an oversight that will be fixed with an update.
Same here, got the 10s AOD and I was hoping I would get the pulse animation after a missed call... but nope. :/
[APP]AMOLED Notification Light "NotifyBuddy"
So I was annoyed not having an LED notification light on oneplus 6t so I tried to make one of my own;). As OP6T has amoled display whenever a desired notification comes the app brings in a black screen with notification LED looking animation...

It’s working for me. I enabled Autostart, Overlay permission and set no restrictions in battery saver and it worked for Outlook, WhatsApp and calls (not tested text messages). I bought the full version after the initial test and use the app icons option without any problems too.
I’m running 12.0.5.0

I should have also said you need to select the apps you want a notification from and separately enable missed call notification in settings.
Thanks for confirming.
It's working for me now on the 3rd installation...
I touched every lighting/oled saving parameters, stuff like that and now it's showing up.
edit: ...and I uninstalled it after seeing the battery it wasted.

Well it stopped working for me after a few hours, but I also noticed it annihilated the battery even more than just enabling AOD permanently. Will try it again if there is an update.

Always on all the time U'll see the icon of the app that got a notification lol
I enabled the constant AOD a few days ago and I think there must have been something else going on during my initial testing because the battery only drops 2% per hour now. I’m using the first simple clock option (red) and thankfully it moves position after a few min. An LED would have been nice, but totally happy with the AOD now.
NotifyBuddy was using the same battery as full on gaming for some reason :/
