im trying to figure out how to make it so my phone doesnt ring with unknown callers and ones that arent on my contact list.
to do this i enabled Do not disturb, then checked the box to allow calls from contacts and messages to everyone.
then i went in and set GMAIL, FB IM and HANGOUTS to enabled on the exclusion of notifications, so those work..
but now i did all of this, my watch no longer vibrates or has any notification pop-ups.. not even the exclusions i set..
any ideas how to make this work?

So I've integrated my Sprint Number with Google Voice - Cool. I like it. Mostly it's awesome to be able to sit at my computer and text\call people from a number they actually recognize. And being a flash addict, and yet someone who also wants to keep ALL my texts, it is quite useful.
Anyways when I first integrated, every incoming text would give me two notifications, one from Voice and one from default SMS app. I did something - changed a setting - I'm not sure, probably on the desktop side of things, but now I'm only receiving texts in Voice. They aren't showing up at all in my SMS app. Can someone help a noob out? I appreciate it!
I haven't used the integration, but what if you try to re-set it up and disable the text feature?

Sigh One day I'll learn to think outside the box! I have to wait 15 minutes after disabling to enable, but I'll let you know if it worked. It may not, because the settings may be stored server side and kept regardless of disabling, but I will soon see. Thanks.
So, messages are now showing up in SMS app again, so thats good, but I'm getting the double notifications again. Does anyone know how to disable text notifications for Voice? Also, I told voice that I wanted to route all calls through it - I've changed my mind haha. How do I change that setting?

Well for google voice, I don't know how to, since I don't use the text feature, but in chomp, you can simply go to the notification settings and disable them, and you'll only see them on chomp.

to disable text notifications, you will also have to disable voicemail notifications. just enable text/email notification for voicemail

Ahhh. Well thats not clear in the least bit. If the notification feature is tied to both voicemail and text they should label it as such. But still thats an annoyingly stupid limitation. Surely they understand why someone, and I would guess most people, would like a voicemail notification, but not two sms notifications. /rant
Anyways, thanks for the help! Also for my other little problem about setting up all calls through gVoice, I just happened to stumble on a widget that switched that... still don't know where the setting to change it is though.
Voice took over everything and i didnt like it. I didnt even want voice to do it, but somehow it did. The only way i could figure out how to get back the option of what number to dial out from (google or cell) was to find older version of voice and install.
recently, my google voice app has been showing missed calls when i open the app. i don't need to see it in google voice since it shows in my call log. all i want google voice to show is my voicemails. can i turn off what labels get synced, or just turn off the option. i can't find it in settings. it wasn't doing this before so i'm not sure if a recent update started this.
does anyone know how to do this?
I think u can change it in GVoice settings thru web browser, I've actually changed it before to show those missed calls.

??? its sunder settings/calls
Missed Calls
Place missed calls in the inbox
Send missed calls to my email
the thing is i already checked the browser setting and to place missed calls in the inbox is not selected, yet it's still doing it.
My Samsung skyrocket is doing this same thing and its driving me NUTS! Any solutions yet?
Ive got this problem too and tried to fix via the web interface -- didn't work. The best work around is to go to labels and select inbox and the messages go away. Quite annoying for sure.
i tried to disable the messages label, but i can't find how to do that. i don't want to be selecting the label everytime. that's even more annoying.
anyone know how to fix this
Back when I had Sense on Marshmallow, using the Do Not Disturb (Priority Only) would result in ANY from of communication from a specific contact come through and ringing. Doesn't matter if it's regular calls and text or WhatsApp.
I am now on GPe running Marshmallow 6.0 MRA58K.H15 and setting up notification is a bit of a headache. I have my contacts starred, which I believe is priority contacts. However, when they called, it lights up the screen but doesn't ring. I didn't try text but WhatsApp notifications also doesn't come in. If I flip priority notification for WhatsApp, it works. However, then all WhatsApp notification will ring.
What I want to happen is when Do No Disturb mode is set to Priority Only, notification from my Starred Contacts come through, be it on WhatsApp or regular calls and texts. Just like when I was running Sense on Marshmallow. How do I do this?
ALSO
WhatsApp Notifications and some other apps doesn't ring when the phone idles. It's as if it goes into Doze mode. Despite WhatsApp being "Not Optimised" in the settings. Any help with that?
I have Push Notification Fix installed and have heartbeat set to 1 and 2 minutes. Still experience delay.

FYI I have the following installed:
Xposed Frameworks
Android N-ify
GravityBox [MM]
Systemless root (Although I think I broke this because of the framework I installed)

When a contact is stared means it's in your favorites list, but doesn't mean they are in the priority list. I believe you have to manually configure the priority list, approving the contacts you wish to be in that list.

How do I do this on Stock Android?
I have found a solution to the problem above. It turns out HTC broke the feature by adding their own code, requiring VIP status like discussed above.
The fix for it, is found here for the GPe edition.
I have searched all the web for a solution to deactivate the automatic sms every time I reject a call and I havent find anything. Is there a way to disable that feature cause I'm receiving tons of spam calls that I have blocked, and still spamming sms
what are you using to make phone calls/sms. It might be a setting in whatever you are using
the default apps I use, I communicated with vodafone also and they said me that I have not an activated service for missed calls and that it is a phone setting, I haven t managed to disable it
what's the default app
Phone and Messages are the apps
Just picked up the 11 and I am trying to set it up as my older phone (Note 10) regarding DND (do not disturb).
With my old setup, I could silence everything except phone calls. With the new phone, it seems that phone calls are tied to messages and filtered by all contacts, favorites or none.
Putting Phone and Phone calls as app exceptions will silence calls received if for the People section I select None, and selecting Contacts in People will permit group Whatsapp messages etc. which is really annoying.
Does anyone know how I can allow only phone calls (without regard to who's calling) and block everything else?
