Issues with Do Not Disturb Mode - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For a few weeks now I have trouble with my do not disturb mode. I have the rules set up for priority only at certain times but I keep having to disable do not disturb manually because normally it's supposed to end at 9am. I added a few screenshots to the thread so you can see what I mean.

Screenshot 2
As you can see something is messing with my do not disturb settings but I have no idea what. None of the apps I installed have do not disturb access. Rebooting my phone didn't fix the issue so does anyone know what is going on here?

Vibrate OFF

Anybody knows of any tool/hacks to turn of ALL vibrations on the phone e.g. in a situation when vibrate is turned off, certain apps manage to vibrate.
There is the tool to remove 3 key vibration, but can there be a key for no vibrations at all? The one that particularly annoys me is for new messages in Whatsapp. The developers are too busy to roll out any sort of update or fixes to address a 'toggle' switch, but the likes of KiK have that option.
I'm not too sure if it's possible to have a phone-wide hack that would prevent apps from having access to the vibrator function. Perhaps some cautious digging within the registry might bring some answers, but I too have looked both here and google and couldn't find really anything to completely disable vibrate on all levels on my phone.
Maybe I'll do some digging before I call it a night and see what I can find.
we can't do that

I've been into the registry a few times, but cannot see a system wide vibrate off. There must be a way in which at least the vibrate intensity could be controlled system wide. Digging further ..

Do not disturb mode

I turn on do not disturb mode and all notifications still come through.. I turned allow exceptions off as well.
Anyway to fix this?
No one else has this problem? I'll take it back to AT&T and see what they can do
Strange. Starting with this post is a discussion about DND settings. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=59710629 perhaps the answer is in the setup?

Device is stuck on a silent-schedule

Hey,
I upgraded my device from a Nexus 5. In my Nexus 5 I had an option in the Settings to create a schedule for silent times (or priority only). Before I did the switch, I had a setting on to put the device on silent mode at 21:30. Now, in my OnePlus3, I notice that it also goes silent at 21:30 every day (it probably automatically migrated this setting along with the other settings when I first set up the device). But in the OnePlus 3 I no longer have a setting to disable this schedule... This is extremely annoying, because when the device goes into Silent mode I can't even turn up the volume with the volume rocker, I have to physically push the alert slider to "silent" mode and then back to "all notifications" mode.
The device is not rooted and I'd much rather keep it this way if I can.
I hate the fact that there something going on that I can't switch off...
Ideas? Tips? any thoughts will be highly appreciated.
Several people have reported this problem and I have it as well. You are correct that it comes from transferring the settings from your previous phone to the OP3 which has no way to control do not disturb settings through software. None of the suggested fixes have worked for me. My hope was that the new OTA, which apparently had notification fixes would stop it, but it did not. The only thing that has been reported as working all the time is wiping the phone entirely and setting it up as new without transferring your old settings. If you still have your old phone, you could change the settings on it to remove all dnd settings, use it for a bit so that it backs up and then try setting up your OP3 again. I plan on doing that or starting new and fresh later this week.
Edit:
Here's the other thread on this. Looks like the problem exists for people who did clean installs as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/help/disturb-settings-t3400979
Had this problem, too. I did transfer the settings from my old phone, but I had no DND settings active on this device (in fact I never ever used DND). The only way to get out of this silence loop was to restart the phone and set the slider to priority and back to all.

That didn't fix it, the behavior returned after a while.
Apparently this is a big issue:

Silent mode

Hi Guys,
How to activate silent mode in the 5t like we have on Samsung phones? I am able to reduce volume but it cannot be reduced fully. I am looking for complete silent mode+vibration only for calls mode.
Thanks
Does the hardware slider on the left side of the phone help?
The topmost position seems to be doing exactly that, except that alarms will also ring.
Do you want to even get rid of the alarms?
Thread closed,
Looks like we had some Gremlins in the servers again. Please use this thread:

Notifications not showing up

Hi there
Sometimes when I receive an email the notification will not show up on the phone, that is no sound and no led notification.
However as soon as I press the power button or unlock the screen the notification will pop up.
It is almost as if the device goes to sleep state when screen is turned off.
The emails that I miss at times due to this problem are time sensitive and really important for my work.
Such delays are at times resulting in direct monetary loss.
This was never an issue on my Galaxy Note 3 from which I have upgraded.
Can anyone of you guide and assist me as to which settings need to be changed to get it to work properly.
Many thanks for your time.
I have a simmilar issue here. Some notifications show up normally, like mail and facebook, but other apps only show notifications if i have they are opened.
It's like the system is forcing close those apps.

Still haven't found any solution.
Things I have tried :
1. Going to Power Master > Battery Mode > Balance
Thinking that in other modes it would kill background apps to save power.
2. Went to Power Master > Autostart Manager > Added apps I need notifications to start on system startup.
Apart from the mentioned problem, I see another one.
I opened What's app notification setting and turned Group Notifications off and Message notifications are set to show silently and minimize.
However the app itself changes the setting and forces messages on screen by itself over riding my changes. Have been happening since a long time now no matter how many times I change the settings.
Update if you can find any resolution.
