Anyone has Notification vibration problem? - Galaxy S6 Active

I'm using Galaxy S6 Active in Korea
Of course, i unlocked, and updated to 5.1.1
(i used 5.0 just few days, i can't remember how long did it maintain)
Now my phone seems to treat the vibrate profile as silent.
text message vibrations is Okay(i'm using google messenger, not basic sms app, not google hangout)
But, Call notification,FB,Gmail....and so on, all of feature which has vibration noti feature do not work now.
Actually i already did device reset once. at that time, i could get vibration notification.
but few days later, back to present state.
i googled, and i got some people who were experienced like me.
but they said various opinions about this problem such as battery saving mode, 5.1.1 updating...etc.
plus no oned replied "i fix it!"
I constantly use the vibrate profile and this is very problematic not having the phone actually vibrate because I am missing notifications a lot now.
Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone know how to fix this?
plz give me your comment

I read, I think on Android central, that this occurs when power saving mode is on after updating to 5.1.1. This didn't happen on the previous software.

Backlight comes on with any incomming text message or email message

Hi I am running Ruu_Signed_Duttys_WM6.1_5.2.19700_Hybrid_V2_1_64.08.21_CubeV2 ROM.
And everytime I get an incomming text message or e-mail the backlight comes on.
This happens even after you put it into standby and none of the other buttons will wake it only the power button.
i think that is by default and if u want the phone to wake by pressing any key than u have to make that change under settings.
It should not do that, the last ROM I used did not have that issue. It may not be the ROM I would like to know if anyone else has this problem.
Hi everyone..is there really no way to disable the screen turning on when a text or e-mail comes in. When using a WM6.1 ROM, I have tried different ROMs and they all the doing the same. It seems this should be something that can be configured.
Any input from the experts...if not I will go back to WM 6.0
I didn't have it happen with L26 v4 ROM - it does with Dutty's and it does with Death v3. I have heard from others in those threads who say that it does not happen to them. Some have said that the BBCONNECT program 4.0.0.92 is the solution - I have not bothered to search for or try yet. For me , right now, the common thread seems to be AT&T based ROMs
Arghhhhh....I hate to step back into the dark ages but that issue really bugs me. Knowing that my phone is in my case and everytime and e-mail comes in the screen turns on for 10sec....that accounts for the my short battery life.....And I only want to run the ROM's from Dutty he does really great work....wish I knew half of what he does. I might be able to fix it myself...That then brings the question why certain ROM's an not others...
I will leave that question to the experts.
I think it does this because it is putting an alert notification on the screen... I disabled those on mine and they still seem to come on the screen!!
It's so annoying to have to deal with your emails and at the same time have to dismiss countless notifications!!!
Same annoying problem here.
WM 6.1, and every setting in 'sounds & notifications' fails to show results.
Whether I disable or enable the tone, the showing of a message, or the vibration.. no dice: it keeps waking up from standby mode.
i remember some else asking this question as welll... and i think someone was talking about changing something in the the registry, but i am also interested in this. it would come in handy when i have to put my phone in standby for a long time.
bump
I too have this same issue. I've had my new ROM for several months and love it, but I would like to know how to stop the backlight from turning on everytime an email is received.
It never used to do this, however I am pretty sure the backlight always came on for new text messages.
I can deal with the text messages. However, I run blackberry connect for my work email. Having the backlight come on for each email obviously kills the battery life.
I know if can be disabled as it was before. The question is how? Is there a registry setting?

Reminder on screen message fault driving me mad

I keep setting reminders to pop up an on screen notification then after a reboot and not every time) it loses the settings and I have to go back into SOUNDS - NOTIFICATIONS and set reminders to have the ON SCREEN MESSAGE again.
Does anyone know how to make the permanent as it is driving me mad.
I too am having this problem - why does it do that????
I think I had this problem before updating to Rom 1.37.707.1 too...so probs not rom related
It is weird. It only resets sometimes as well. I cant work out what causes it.
wonder why not many ppl complaining about this issue? Its good having notification on
yes mine did it last night again but had not done it for a few days.
I wonder if it is to do with certain software configurations i.e. if you have something installed. I have not added that much to the standard build or even if it is noise specific i.e. a certain sound file.

[Q] Random Vibrate, No Notification

Okay folks, I wonder if anyone out there can help... My One is randomly vibrating once, with no notification, and I can't figure out why.
Other threads point to similar issues but not the same problem I have. I've been troubleshooting a lot, but can't narrow it down much. What I know so far:
Appears random. Not a particular time, battery level etc
No notifications appear in the bar. It can happen even when I'm looking at the phone and there is no visual indicator.
I have a Pebble watch, so most notifications can and do come through to the watch - no notifications on it when the vibrate happens.
It also doesn't seem to be any kind of dropped Bluetooth connection with my Pebble, as the Pebble doesn't notify of a lost connection like it normally would.
I have also read threads for other HTC phones where it pointed to nfc being switched on. While I do usually leave NFC on, the vibrate still happens even when I disabled NFC
.
I was holding off until Vodafone decide to release the Sense 6 update, but I'm not holding my breath there...
Is there anything that I could investigate? I was trying to avoid rooting or modding the phone for as long possible, but would be prepared to do it. However, I don't really fancy going down that road if the problem will still be there.
Suggestions appreciated!

If your phone is not modified in any way, the best thing to do is take it to service

[Q] Notification Vibration Stopped Working?

I'm no longer getting vibrations on my wrist with my Gear Live. I haven't touched anything, but they just stopped. The motor does work however, I've tested it using the Phone Finder app. I've tried resetting the device, restarting the device, and making sure that it's not on mute. I can't seem to find settings for this anywhere; could someone help me out?
Edit: I love how as soon as I post this, vibration starts working again..
Could it be that certain apps aren't getting the thing to vibrate, but others are? Anyone else getting vibration notifications with Textra?
I swear vibration didn't work every time. It's so faint though that even when it does, I don't notice it

Do you get Textra to work without. Contact + ?
Watch not vibrating for text messages
I noticed my Gear Live wasn't vibrating for text messages. It seemed random whether or not it vibrated for text messages. It vibrated normally for all other notifications. I have now discovered (and I believe and hope it's a software issue) that my watch will vibrate every time for incoming texts if and only if my phone is set to silent or ring mode. If the phone is set to vibrate, my watch will not vibrate for incoming texts. My Phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 on the Verizon network running Android 4.4.2. I have tried rebooting, powering down andback on, and even a factory reset all resulting in no change of behavior. Is this similar to what you were experiencing? Anyone else experiencing this?
Text message vibration not working
I also noticed I'm not getting a vibration for text messages. Not sure why, I've had the watch for a week now and this just started a day or so ago. I've also restarted and reset to factory settings with no luck. If anyone knows of the issue, please post. Thanks!

Not sure if it's a permanent fix or not, but I actually shut my phone down completely (Samsung GS4) and turned it back on. I did a couple test text messages and the watch is picking up the messages and vibrating again. Again, this could just be a band-aid but it did seem to work.

Question Help needed please - Phone app not showing "missed call" notifications on lockscreen and AOD

This isn't very easy to describe, but I've noticed this "bug" for a while. I managed to workaround it by not updating the Phone app (as it appears the bug was introduced with the 24th Feb 2021 update for the Phone app). However, with the April (whole phone) software update, it's forced the Phone app to also update to a newer version which has this bug.
I'd be grateful if someone could see if they can reproduce this bug as follows:
-Ensure you are using the built-in Samsung Phone app as default
-Ensure the version of your Phone app is at least "12.1.10.28" (my current version is "12.1.10.41")
-Ensure your phone is off charger
-Ensure your phone is in standby for at least 1 minute (and ensure it's not being woken up during this period due to receiving messages or other notifications)
-Call the phone, and don't pick-up. Once the phone is "ringing", you can hang up
-Observe that no missed call notification is shown on the AOD or the lockscreen - this is the bug
-Wake the phone and get to the homescreen - you'll now see the missed call notification pop up at the top. If you put the phone back in standby, you'll also now notice the notification on AOD and the lockscreen
I can reproduce this bug following a factory reset, and also in Safe mode. Therefore, I'm thinking this should be a universal bug, but I'm hoping at least one other person can reproduce this. I've tried searching in other forums/threads but no one seems to be reporting this. I'd have thought this would be extremely widespread and many would have noticed this by now, hence why I'm posting to ask. Thanks in advance to anyone who tries to reproduce this.
Couple of observations/clarifications from the original post:
-If the phone isn't in standby for at least around 1 minute, then all works fine and the missed call notification shows up on AOD and lockscreen
-If the phone is charging, there is also no issue
-Phone app with older version numbers to above have no issue
-As described in the original post, navigating to the homescreen following a missed call appears to "trigger" the notification to display
Given all the above, it makes me wonder if something is putting the "Missed call" notification mechanism to "sleep". I suspect the only hope is for the Phone app to update to correct this bug.
i tick all the above boxes and i can confirm there is no missed call icon on the AOD, there is only a missed call notification on the notification bar

Thanks for trying and confirming the issue for AOD! Can you also confirm it doesn't show up on the lockscreen?
Yes, once you enter into the phone and on the homescreen, the missed call notification shows up on the notification bar (as if entering the homescreen is required to trigger the notification). From there (as long as you don't clear the notification), the notification then displays as it should everywhere else (including on the AOD and lockscreen).
By the way, can you please report the exact version number of your Phone app?
By the way, I managed to get someone else on Android Central forums to reproduce this, and he's using a Snapdragon US version. So it's almost certainly a universal bug.
