or at least on notifications, I don't like it when my phone vibrates everytime a notification pops up, even if I turn off the vibration setting in app, it still vibrate, the only solution I have is to block app notification itself, but I don't like that. So how can I turn it off, if it is even possible

I was recently going through the phone's settings menu, and in sound and display there is a section called pulse notification light which according to the description, pulses LED light repeatedly for new notifications. I have this checked to do this, but I have never seen the LED pulse for any notifications, whether it be incoming calls, sms, or email. I have checked and unchecked it, rebooted the phone, but to no avail I see no pulse notification.
Am I missing something here?
My phone is totally stock for the OS, and applications.
The notification LED light only blinks if the screen is off and if the notification LED light setting is enabled within their respective applications.
The screen is off, and I don't see any setting within the default messaging app, or the gmail app that says anything about LED notifications. I don't think that is very smart for a smartphone. I hate the phone vibrating while sitting on my desk, I would rather have the LED flashing to notify me of new messages, and/or email.
I'm sorry, there is no LED notification in the settings, bad memory LOL. The LED should work as long as Notifications is checked, although it may be defective, like blinking 5 times when you first receive an email or message, and then blinks sporadically afterwards. A fix is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11292197&postcount=4
It could very well be the case that your LED light is not working and you should go to a repair center to get it checked out.
So I've searched everywhere and I haven't seen anything for this issue. Even though all the settings are correct and i have vibrate checked in the messages app, my phone won't vibrate for notifications like text messages all the time. Sometimes it will vibrate and sometimes it won't. So my phone will be in my pocket and I'll check it 30 minutes later and see 3 or 4 texts but it never vibrated. I exchanged my phone and am having the same issues. Everything is stock. Has anyone had this problem?
the phone vibrates, it just does it too softly for you to feel it... that's the problem with light phones, the original epic 4g could cause an earthquake but that's because it was gigantic, I never felt the epic 4g touch, and this one I feel it at times...

no it definitely doesn't vibrate. I've set it on the table and texted it and it'll vibrate on every 10th text or so. usually it'll just light up for the notification but it won't vibrate.

menu/settings/sound...........make sure sound and vibration are checked. that is the default for the entire phone even if vibration is enabled in messaging. also make sure your vibration intensity is all the way up.

Yes that's already been checked and vibration intensity is all the way up. The phone does vibrate on some texts, but not most, which is what the problem is.
I've noticed it'll vibrate normally when the screen is on and I get a text, but it won't when the screen is off?
I've definitely seen bugs in phones in which things like notification LEDs didn't work when the phone was in sleep mode. Whaddya know, I recall one of them being a Samsung (Intrepid). Granted it was years ago and Windows Mobile 6.5, but whoever was coding notification and power management back then wasn't fully aware of the point of "notifications".
Then again I just sent myself a test to the Note 2 while the screen was off... phone vibrated, screen turned on briefly (I hate that), blue light started blinking, heard my notification sound, and screen turned back off.
So there's something interfering with your phone's ability to wake up while it is trying to notify you. Have you done any power management modifications or installed anything designed to save battery power?

I haven't changed any power management settings or downloaded any apps designed to save power. I've tried factory resets several times. The phone will vibrate for texts but after about 30 minutes or so goes back to not vibrating. I've called samsung and taken it to the sprint store and no one can figure it out. I first thought the motions was causing te problems but it still doesn't vibrate when those are off. I'm completely out of ideas.
EDIT: I may have figured it out, if I turn on "Wake up in lock screen" in the settings in S Voice, the phone stops vibrating on texts. When I turn it off, the phone vibrates again. Toggled it on and off and the changes were immediate. Does anyone else have this problem??
Is it possible (with any mod or app) to keep the notification LED on when the display is on? I'm using LightFlow to manage the LED, but as soon as I turn on the display, the LED turns off. When I turn off the display again without reading the notification which caused the led to turn on, it turns on again - until I read the notification, then it stays off.
I would like to keep it on (regardless if the display is on or off) until I clear the notification which made it on!
me to. I don´t understand why it doesnt work. Must be a easy step.
No ideas?
Is this simply impossible?
if i leave the watch to normal settings, ambient mode off, tilt to wake on i get notifications (like text and emails) and they turn the watch on. and it vibrates.
but if i turn off tilt to wake, then when i get email and text the watch doesnt wake up at all.. or even get notifications or vibrate..
if i turn on ambient mode and turn off tilt to wake, then my watch gets notifications cards, but wont vibrate on text and emails.
any ideas??
My watch has similar symptoms. There's topic about that http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-360/general/5-0-1-sucks-imho-t2976297
You'll have to forgive me, but this seems rather silly and I cant get it going. My previous phone was Moto X (2014). It was set up for notification sounds for when my ringer was on, and if I switched to Android's vibrate mode it vibrated instead. Easy, vibrate in lieu of the sound. Common sense.
Not so with my Pixel XL. In Vibrate mode, the app will only vibrate if I set it to vibrate INDIVIDUALLY in the app itself. Meaning it vibrates all the time, even when the ringer is on. I can't get it to vibrate only in vibrate mode. If I don't enable 100% vibration, the notifications in vibrate mode pop up silently.
I recognize my last device was rather old, but did this functionality change?
I recognize this is probably a dumb question but if someone can confirm there is nothing wrong with my device that would be great Thank you
