Notification sound questions

Is there a separate setting where I can turn only the notification to vibrate while leaving the phone ringtone on? I receive emails at middle of the night and it always wakes me up. At the same time, I do want incoming calls to wake me up.
Another issue. when I previously switched the phone from vibrate to sound in the notification drawer, it would make a beep noise. But today it doesn't make that sound anymore. Did i disable something somewhere?

Get Silent Time Lite on the market. Allows you to set times to quiet the phone but allow exceptions for the phone. So you can set it to ring for only contacts you highlight.
No idea about your second issue.

Settings > Sounds > Volume > System.
Maybe you put the system sounds volume down?? Hope this helps

I have put the system volume all the way up. The sound came back the day before, and I cannot get it to play again last night after I turned it from vibrate to ring.

Mine did that for a little while too. Fixed itself eventually.

Phone ringer mutes every time my watch connects

Very strange behavior. A few days after I got my Moto 360, I started noticing that my phone ringer would be muted at random times when I know I didn't do it myself. I started experimenting and I realized that every time my 360 establishes a connection to my phone, the phone ringer automatically mutes. I tried factory resetting the watch, removing the bluetooth pairing, and nothing has fixed it. It's very annoying because I never know when my phone might automatically mute the ringer and I might miss an important call. I actually had to add a Tasker task to Unmute the ringer every time the watch connects.
logcat shows the onProfileStateChanged callback of CachedBluetoothDevice logs "profile HEADSET newProfileState = 0" after connection. Not sure why there's a headset profile associated with a watch. Any ideas on how to remove the associated profile?

I had that too. Deleted mini launcher and got rid of the problem, had to delete data&cache from Android Wear app also. Good luck, that's a sucky problem!

In the Android Wear app, in the settings, tap "Silence connected phone" and select "Alert on watch and phone".
Should fix it.

That seeting is if you want the notifications to be ON in both your Phone and watch. If I select Alert on watch and phone its annoying, I only want it on my watch.
Having same issue with my phone going to mute when watch connects again to phone.
Any fix for this annoying issue.?

No Notification Sound

Hey guys and gals,
i have a problem with my Nexus 5x. Since 1h I don't have ( almost ) notification sounds. WhatsApp, Gmail etc are all "muted". Regular calls ring, WhatsApp calls don't. I don't have the - not disturb - Mode on and i have rebooted my device three times. I didn't change anything! My Phone is not rooted, and have the latest update. My speaker is fine, i can hear music through Spotify, YouTube etc. My device is two weeks old.
I apologize for my bad english, i hope you can understand..
Thanks!
Edit.: I have delete my recent apps and cleared the cache. The problem remains..

Have you tried to change notification sound? Every notification is muted?
I've a similar problme, when I start a call from my smartwatch, after the call's end, my notification sound totally disappears. But a reboot solve the problem.

Notifications that lower music and media sound volume (in silent mode) (MIUI 10)

Hi all,
I'm having a problem with my Xiaomi Mi 6 with MIUI 10.0.1.0 stable: I always use the phone in silent mode, with no vibration either, because I send all the notifications to my Amazfit Bip, but, even though this, everytime I receive a notification whatsoever while listening to music or watching a video, the media sound is lowered.
It does that with Google Play Music and YouTube.
My phone only lowers the media volume, it doesn't actually play a notification sound, since it's in silent mode.
It's incredibly annoying.
I can't listen a single song without being disturbed.
I wandered through the options and found nothing about that: have you got suggestions?
Is this a MIUI feature or there's something wrong with my phone?
Thanks!

I think I found a workaround but this definitively needs to be a bug because it's a really nonsense behaviour.
I went to Settings > Sounds and Vibrations > Ringtone & Notification Sound > and I set "None" for Message Received and Default Notification Sound.
I made some tests and now I can receive notifications from WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger Lite, Signal, Telegram and GMail while listening to music, without the music being lowered.
(Sometimes it happens again BTW...).
Obviously, this is a nuisance when using the phone not in silent mode, because I won't hear most of notifications.

Hi sberla. Did you found any other solution to this issue? As a music lover and Spotify's, the experience with my new Mi8 has been not as good as I though. Thanks!!

Hi Manu!
No, unfortunately I didn't find anything else but with the workaround I described, everything is working fine now

My friend had same issue. In sound settings she checked "also vibrate for calls" + "vibrator in silent mode". This solved the issue. (Redmi Note 5)

go to the app that notifies and lowers the notification Settings > Apps > Manage Apps > <app> > Notifications and turn off the allow sound
i use miui 11 and this is the only solution that worked for me

A little bit late but, on MIUI 10/11 I use to workaround this problem just by setting the DND mode. Just after you put the smartphone in DND the multimedia volume will decrease to zero. Just rise it up again.

Thanks, it's a little bit uncomfortable but it should work!

Hey everyone, I finally found the settings, that turns this off - go to settings --> sound and vibrations --> and there is a "sound assistant". You just need to turn on "more sound sources" when you open it up

Bluetooth notification tones on Pie

When I was on Oreo and using my Bluetooth headset I would receive text notification tones through both headset and phone. Now on Pie when I have my headset connected text message notifications only play through the headset. Phone call ringtones play through both but not text notifications. Am I missing a setting somewhere or is this the new normal?

BUMP BUMP BUMP, this is literally making me miss calls from my boss. Seems like a very stupid change to make without giving the option to change... Anyone have any ideas?

Right?!? I have no trouble getting phone calls. It's the text messages that I don't know about. I use Bluetooth headphones mostly for talking so when I'm not on a call I don't have the earbuds in. So when I get a text and the notification only plays through the headset I won't hear it if there's any amount of noise around me.

I just got the update on my T-Mobile S9. Same problem. If you disable Media on your active Bluetooth device, notifications will work on the phone, but that defeats the purpose of using headphones or an external speaker. Is there a fix for this!?

I use mine mainly for talking at work. So this would work for me. And honestly if I'm using them for media then I'm going to have the earbuds in so I'll hear the notifications.

I signed and shared it in the Samsung forum on a thread I started there a couple of months ago. Hopefully, they will fix it soon. I am missing important messages when in my car, have my Bluetooth headset on, or have the jack plugged into my radio at home.

I figured out a fix!!!
Go to Settings>Sounds and Vibrations>Advanced Sound Settings>Seperate App Sound
Turn the switch to the "On" position
Click on "App" and choose your messenger app and any other app you want to be heard through the phone.
Backup to the previous screen and press "Audio Device"
Choose "Phone"
You should be all set. You will now play your message/ phone sounds through your phone without losing audio through your Bluetooth device!

I don't have the separate app sound option... That's strange.

Try this solution:
Settings > Connections > Bluetooth > click the settings on the Bluetooth device >turn it on for calls , default is off.
Let me know if that worked.
