I've been running the latest CM7 nightlies for a while now and starting about a week ago, the vibrate function stopped working when I received text messages. I use Chomp SMS and I've changed the settings in there, in the standard messaging app, and in the general sounds category in settings. The phone still vibrates for everything else - games, alarms, phone calls, etc.
Any ideas? I'd rather not have to do a full reset.

Did you change the notification settings in the stock messaging app?
Messaging > menu > settings > notification settings > vibrate > "vibrate always"
Yes I did that. Any other ideas?

Shot in the dark, are you using the notifications drop-down power widgets? I had an issue a while back that when I used those to adjust the volume/vib/silent toggle, it would turn off vibrate in the global settings when moving back and forth between "vibrate" and "all sounds on".
Just make sure that your global settings are correct and then dont change anything then test the notification with an incoming SMS.
Other than that I'm out of ideas.
I tried changing the global settings again and in the process realized that it vibrates now when the phone is set to "silent" mode, but when I turn on the volume again the vibrate goes away. I set every single notification setting I could find to vibrate always so this is super confusing.

Try setting up a notification power widget. And under 'widget buttons' scroll all the way down to 'sound modes' and select one of the options where the first one is "sound+vibrate". Toggle to this mode from the notification pull-down and see if that toggles it. (I personally use 'Sound+Vib/Vib/Silent').
I found that the stock settings and CMsettings often mess eachother up.
I ended up flashing back to a backup from 2 weeks ago - it was worth the time because the vibrate settings are completely back to normal. Thanks for the help, though, I'll keep it in mind for future reference in case this happens again.
Hi all,
How can i stop whatspp messages from peeking when the screen is on ?
When the screen is locked , i am able to prevent messages from showing up on lock screen . However when the screen is on ( eg when i am doing some work ) , the whatspp messages peek on to the screen for a brief moment and the messages are visible. I wnat this to stop as sometimes the phone is being used by someone else and they get to see the messages .
The "do not disturb "mode or priority modes silence all other message notifications , hence are useless.
In short i want notifications of my whatspp messages but they should not peek on my screen when its on
Can you suggest a solution ?
Many thanks in advance

pull down notifcations bar, press and hold settings button for few seconds. new menu will be added to settings. go to it (system tuner) other, advanced notifications settings, rturn it on. go to settings, apps, whatsapp, notifications, choose the level you want (no peak would be level 4 I think).
Check out iobit applock. Its free and works great.

For whatever reason , i could not get the System tuner to be added to the settings menu. Holding the settings button did nothing . However i surfed the xda site and found out that by using adb command i could stop the peeking on my active screen.
Follow this thread for more details :https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/help/ui-tuner-nougat-t3547059 which says --
"System UI Tuner has the ability to set notification levels including disabling message previews however Samsung pulled it out in 7.0. The solution is this command and you don't have to be rooted:
Quote:
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0
Find more info here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20...tuner-t3493986"
This has worked for me and i have no more peeking. I have samsung S7 with android 7.0.
Will try on Pixel now.
Thanks a lot for all the suggestions
For Now, i cannot make Level base Notification for Custom Applications like Whatsapp. Level Base notification available in built in Apps.
Phone Nexus 5X, OS : Andriod Oreo
Has anyone noticed that Whatsapp seems to override the "Do Not Disturb" aka DND settings?
I keep getting popups even though I have "Alarms only" DND activated. I do not get sounds but only the popup which activates the screen and lights up the room.
I also noticed that if I set settings-->notifications-->whatsapp notification to Level -1 (as in no notifications) I still get popups, usually the second msg from the same person activates the popup and screen lights up.
I also tested my wife's phone Mi5 with RR nougat as well and same occurs with her phone so it is not a phone thingy but rather a broken DND by android/LOS or RR bug.
Could someone test this with their phone and with another rom perhaps?
Steps to reproduce:
1. Set phone to DND (alarms only) and check that Whatsapp does not override dnd settings (settings-->notifications-->whatsapp)
2. Turn screen off and use another phone to send whatsapp messages (from 1 to several).
3. Check if you get popup messages from whatsapp.

Am I the only one using DND and whatsapp here?
Hello. I had this issue as well, perhaps it is indeed a problem with DND and heads up notifications, as I was surprised when I activated DND and still got WhatsApp notifications.
You can always disable notifications per app, but that's not a proper solution. On the other hand there is an option in Settings->Sound->Do not disturb, which allows you to customize certain aspects like what should it block. That was the solution for me, there is an option to block all visual disturbances with screen on or off, however this may be an option not available in the stock ROM (I'm using Dirty Unicorns, curious name, awesome ROM). Still look for the option in your settings :victory:

Cheers mate for the reply.
Unfortunately I have that setting already enabled, so all visual disturbances should be blocked when screen is off. But if that setting works for you in DU, then perhaps my Z2 RR has a bug and as well Mi5's RR.
I bet this is not a ROM issue but rather WA or Android issue cos the same thing happens with RR, AEX and iirc AICP.
hey gang,
I just got a Pixel 2XL and for Gmail and WhatsApp even though I've got vibration off in the system settings as well as in the app, the damn thing still vibrates when a notification comes in.
This happens on both mine and my brothers 2XL, are we missing a trick?
I've tried to reset app settings but issue persists.
2XL
android 10 - build QQ1A.191205.008 - fresh install
Thanks!
Also happening here... I have spent many hours but haven't found a solution
So the way I found around this is to turn off vibration under Accessibility > Vibration and haptic strength.
Not ideal but it works and the phone will still vibrate if a call comes in.

Did you try switching off the vibration from WhatsApp settings -> Notifications -> Vibrate?
Oops, I see that you have already tried that. Never mind!

Hey guys, finally I've come to a solution after hours of searching and experimenting.
For your information I'm using a Pixel 2 XL running stock Android 10 December build (latest).
I narrowed down the problem by making notification tests with apps other than WhatsApp, like Telegram and Messages (from Google).
The problem:
When setting WhatsApp's notification preference to "Silent" (in Android's App info) - having WhatsApp own settings to no vibration neither sound - the very next message received will turn "Silent" option back to "Alerting". This will make phone vibrate (if phone on vibration mode), regardless of your preference of no vibration.
Note that this problem occurs only when phone is on vibration mode.
It happens with WhatsApp and Telegram but doesn't with Messages, making it clear that it's a bug of the app and not of Android itself.
The solution:
1) Adjust WhatsApp's own settings as your wish (if your reading this probably you don't want group message vibration neither sound).
2) Open Android's App Info and tap Notifications
3) Select group or message notifications
4) KEEP IT ALERTING
5) Choose Advanced
6) Tap Sound, then My Sounds
7) Choose None
8) Save
That's it.
It seems to me that faulty apps like WhatsApp and Telegram are currently not able to set None value to the notification sound. And, since Android turns sound to vibration when on vibrate mode, those apps will vibrate regardless of user setting.
The procedure described above will ultimately set None sound directly to Android system, shortcutting the apps poor programming.
Thanks for reading this and please give feedback whether it helped you.
Dear Forum,
after scanning the x60 and x70 threads about notification issues I'm still struggling with missing notifications and badges for certain apps [in this case Signal and Threema]. What I did so far:
- uninstall com.vivo.pem via ADB App Control
- set notification settings correctly for the apps: (Allow notification, allow smart notification, Floating notifications on (Threema, Signal), Lock screen notifications on (Threema, Signal), display notification details on lock screen, Chats: priority display) // (Home Screen icon badges only for Whatsapp available for some reason)
- set single permission settings for the apps: autostart on, startup on, floating window on, desktop shotcuts on, display on lock screen on, background pop-ups on, Remove permissions and free up space off
- set display settings: show on the off-screen on, show on the lock screen on, show on the home screen on, show in the status bar on, notification method: original icon
- set battery settings correctly: Boost mode, saving mode off, high background power usage on, always on display on, optimize battery life off, auto enable battery saver off
[Phone settings: Drawer style, dark mode, Android Style control center, Vivo Origin System Launcher]
Whatsapp is working: Home Screen notifications, badges, also lock screen notifications - Threema and Signal are not working, driving me a bit crazy. "Sometimes" there is a notification sound, sometimes not. Starring at the lock screen with turned on blue ambilight, it sometimes appears, sometimes not. So my questions:
1) Is there anyone who has experience with Signal and Threema notifications on a Vivo device and could share his/her solution?
2) Should I uninstall also com.vivo.abe and com.iqoo.powersaving?
3) There are no badges for almost all third party apps (Whatsapp badges are working) - is there a way to change it, to get also badges for Signal, Threema, Telegram and so on? (Change Launcher?)
I appreciate your help!

I turned dark mode off, Threema notifications in the status bar are working like 70% now, sometimes they don't - that's so weird.
Is there a solutions for getting badges? Maybe changing the launcher?
Same problem with Google's Messages app, so can't see when I receive a SMS.
I hope they will fix this ASAP.

1) Set settings of the app like in 1st message
2) Set settings of battery/energy usage like in 1st message
3) Switch to bright/light-mode
4) restart phone
-> after doing that, almost 100% of all Threema message are shown as notification. Still struggling with AquaMail, but this will be fixed within next days.

Now at the moment everything seems to work even in dark mode, and even with AquaMail, I just followed this instruction:

No badges in AquaMail but in WhatsApp they work, but I dont need that.

I knew that tutorial before. For me the notifications in status bar and home screen for Threema and Signal did not work having dark mode turned on. Switching to the brigth/light mode the notifications work perfectly.
Considering the badges - I get used to it not having badges for messaging apps.
Just for the readers, you can turn on badges on the home screen for the following apps (Origin OS, Dim9000):
- Designs
- Settings
- iMusic
- iManager
- Kuaishou
- Messages
- Notes
- Recorder
- Telephone
- Clock
- V-Appstore
- Vivo
- Vivo.com
- VivoCloud
- Whatsapp

What about your battery settings? Maybe before changing the display settings you need to do step 7) and 8) - but I've no clue why your display settings are grayed out. Have you deleted certain systemapps with ADB?
If you find the solution, just share it here.

I tried several things now. Going back some steps and checking again ... always stays grayed out.
I deleted only vivo.pem and some Bloatware. Nothing what has to do with display settings ...
So at the moment I dont know what to do next, but with rest of settings all notifications working for me. Only lockscreen notifications dont show up as well as tiktok notification. But thats more or less OK for me.
If I find out how to change Display notification settings I will share here, for sure.

thank for the hint，I think bug in darkmode is the root cause，I can get the notification sound but no visual in notification center, clearmode is ok!
I have reported this system level bug to the PM of iQOO(subsidiary of vivo, they share the same OS) via weibo, hope they can fix it in the later release!
