I am not happy that both the ringtones + notifications are set to the same volume. I like my ringer low and notification sound loud.
Anyway to separate them ?

The only workaround is know now is choosing wisely your sounds or editing the tag if it is mp3.

I haven't found an official way to separate them. Google tied them together. I'very always used Setting Profiles to trigger profiles based on rules. I've just had to modify my rules and profiles with ICS now. You could use SP to create a rule to trigger a profile. Make 2 profiles. One profile would set the ringer volume to 100%. Another profile wshould set it to 50%. Make a rule to trigger when there is an incoming call and the action should be to set the ring loud profile. The other rule should be set to trigger on an incoming text message. Make the aftion to set the ring soft profile.
You will need to make some exceptions for situations like when you put your phone on vibrate or silent. I've just made my own silent and vibrate profiles and put my phone in silent or vibrate using my the profiles instead of I. The android sound menus or using the volume rocker. Then the 2 rules can be modify to trigger on incoming text or call but not when the vibrate or silent profiles are active.
I've also done a rule to trigger at night and set my ringer to silent. I set my incoming call rule to a higher priority so that it overrides the night profile and momentarily allows the phone to ring. I like for my phone to be quiet if it is charging at night (typically means I'm sleeping) but still ring in case of an emergency. It was much simpler with previous versions of android, but I've got the work around now. You can do this with other programs too like locale or tasked. I just prefer setting profiles personally after trying many.

Hey Guys, i have a question, my nexus is ringing when i have it set to silent mode.
The ring is not the normal ringtone.. when the call is received, there is a short ringing sound, the LED flashes and then it goes silent. all texts/emails are silent in silent mode its just phone calls show that ring-ring then go silent.
I am stock/rooted. Im not really sure what is going on here..
Any ideas? i looked through all the setting on the phone and couldnt find anything related to this.
Thanks so much for any help
Are you using any profile switching applications or apps that change your sound levels? I used to get this on my Droid sometimes when using a profile switching app. The app would say I was silent, and my volume levels were down, but on an incoming sound from twitter would still make it through, like the app didn't respond fast enough.
I am using my 360 with a Galaxy Note 3. What I have found is that ONLY if the phone actually is set to make a physical sound, does the watch vibrate. For example, my email is set to vibrate only my phone. I do this because I get quite a lot of emails and don't want the phone beeping all the time...vibrate is sufficient. But then the watch gets the alert but does not vibrate. Only if I set the email app to make a sound does the watch vibrate.
Surely this is a bug? If the phone makes a sound OR vibrates, the watch should vibrate?
It's not a bug. As far as I know, the moto360 will currently only vibrate when your phone has ringer(ringtone/notification sound) enabled. Mine doesn't vibrate at all if the phone is on vibrate.

It may well be the current design, but if that is the case it's stupid! Why wouldn't you want the watch to vibrate if the phone vibrates?!

I agree with you. It's completely stupid. I came searching for an answer when my Moto 360 didn't vibrate with my Note 2, and I found this thread. I want the watch to notify me of a message or whatever the notification may be instead of the phone. This seems like an easy thing to make an option and I'm unsure how they missed the boat on this one.
I was also wondering why the watch was not vibrating. I have 99% of my notices sent to silent, no vibrate and just flash the LED indicator (I'm using PA on a Samsung Galaxy S3). I then stumbled across this thread and found my answer. I had to change the notifications in the various apps to vibrate and then the watch vibrates.
This seems quite silly to me. I don't want my phone to vibrate, I just want the watch to vibrate. One would think (hope) that you'll be able to set the watch/wear vibrate notifications independent of the phone notifications in a future upgrade.

i don't have mine to vibrate at different notifications, but rather, my phone is set on vibrate basically 24/7.
my watch vibrates when i get notifications that only vibrate my phone.

in android wear settings, there's a setting regarding when your phone is on silent, you can select it to either mute both phone and watch or just vibrate the watch

Thanks, that seems to have done the trick. I'll be interested in seeing what it does tonight in the charging cradle. Really don't want that buzzing/vibrating all night.

I have a Moto X, and my 360 vibrates regardless of sound or vibrate mode on my phone.
Kind of makes sense that Moto works best with Moto.
I ended up having to go back to the alert on both option. With it set on wear only it mutes the phone, which is not what I want.

Maybe my notifications would make noise if I didn't have my phone on vibrate all the time I don't know... But since I don't keep my phone in a purse I don't need a loud noise to realize a call is coming in

Where is this setting?? I keep my phone on vibrate all the time, and my Fit vibrates with each notification. This "smart" watch doesn't seem to do that...
Thanks
Is there any way (with or without root) to fix these idiotic sound settings?
If I set the device to silent it goes into Do Not Disturb mode which also stops me from getting ANY notifications on my Gear Fit 2 or other smart watches.
I want to get all of my notifications just like when the phone is in vibrate mode but I don't want it to vibrate. The vibration mechanism in this phone is super low quality and vibrates so loud on my work desk. Looking for a way to set the device to silent without turning on DND. I want notifications but no vibration.
Any ideas?
Ok do not disturb isn't working under Alarms only or Custom. No exceptions and it turns on but I need to use some options like repeat callers and alarms.
Anyone else have this problem or have a fix or workaround for now ?
I have an S9+, and if I choose the Alarms only exception I get alarms while DND is on. I'll have to try favorite callers or repeat calls at another time.
Looking at this, I realized something that I hadn't noticed before. There doesn't appear to be a way to allow exceptions for favorite callers without also allowing alarms.
If I turn on alarms only and turn on dnd I still get all notifications etc like it isn't turned on.
