Texting notification when connected to Bluetooth - OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers

My phone speaker doesn't make a notification sound when connected to bluetooth. Is there away to enable this? I'm using Textra if that helps.

SOLUTION
I looked all day and couldn't find a solution. 5 minutes after I posted this I found it.
Go to setting, then sound, then earPhone mode, then notification in earphone mode set it to never. Then notification will sound in speakers.

Hi, Sorry for bringing up an old topic, but I found a way to disable the notification sound when you connect an headset with bluetooth.
Parameter, cyanogenMod, sound, then uncheck Notifications priority (worked for me).

[Q] Is there a way to have notification/ring sounds ONLY over bluetooth headset? CM9

I work in a quiet office, and listen to Google Music over my bluetooth headset (903BackBeat... altec lansing?)
On my old phone (G2 with CM7), rings and notifications and such would sound ONLY over the bluetooth when paired. Nobody was disturbed!
With my T989 (using teamchopstick's CM9), rings and notifications sound BOTH on the speaker and the bluetooth. So, I have to put the phone on silent to not disturb anyone -- music still works, but now i never know when i get messages.
Is there any setting to get CM9 to have the bluetooth sound behavior i want: silent phone, all sounds over bluetooth while paired?
Alternatively, is there any other ICS ROM that will let me do this? At least my G2 had a notification light that i could keep an eye on for messages -- there's no BLN ICS ROM for the T989 yet so I'm stuck!
Thanks all.

[Q] How to turn off notification sound when I enable Bluetooth?

When I pull down the top menu (so to speak) and tap the bluetooth icon to turn on bluetooth, the phone always makes the notification sound. This is really annoying. It's the default notification sound so I can't just change the notification sound.
Am I missing some way that I can turn off the phone making a noise when I enable bluetooth?

I assume it is playing in both places, right? Speaker then your BT headphones? That's how it happens for me. I've wondered the same thing, but I'm guessing it plays in both places because it assumes you won't keep your headphones on all the time, and you won't hear the notifications in that case if it only plays in the BT headphones.
I've also noticed that in the car, when I have the S3 connected to my stereo via the headphone jack, the notification only plays through the phone speaker. It causes the playing music to reroute there briefly while it plays the sound...I know because the music stops, notification plays through phone speaker, music resumes through the phone speaker, then switches back to the headphone jack. very annoying.

You don't say if you are rooted but , if so, the blue15 toggle mod by DavidDee in Themes and Apps does not make this sound when activating Bluetooth.

Yes, I'm running the stock ROM but rooted. It appears that the sg3 ONLY makes the notification sound for turning on bluetooth if you do it through the pull down menu with the toggle bar at the top of the screen. If you go through menu/settings, or ANY kind of widget on the main screen, the notification sound doesn't come on.
I turn on bluetooth so I can use a headset and NOT bother other people, so setting off the notification sound when I turn on bluetooth is counter-productive.

The mod I mentioned is a replacement for the dropdown with extra options and triggering bluetooth from dropdown no longer makes this sound.

[Q] Mute notifications when headphones are connected

I'm currently using a stock based GB rom, Aurora 0.7.
I have a strange issue when listening to music with my headphones connected. I have the phone in silent mode so without the headphones connected the notifications make no sound. However, with the headphones connected and still in silent mode, when I get a notification the sound plays out of the phone speakers. I would expect this to not make a sound at all, or play the notification sound through the headphones.
Is there a way to change this behaviour?
Thanks.
For anyone interested, I gave SoundAbout a try, but this did not work. The best workaround seems to be Hearing Saver. The settings can be updated so there are no notification sounds played at all when the headphones are connected. Both these apps require running a background service.

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.

Did you click on "Advanced Sound Settings"?

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.
