Hi all,
There is no option in viber settings, to disable the vibration. Is there any chance? To many people's texting me and killing my battery..

By reading this it seems there is no options to turn off vibration http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26407631&postcount=37
but its old thread, and you can ask again here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1508050&page=37
I would check the play store for a app that would disable it, most likely there is.

You can IF
If you are using a custock rom based on stock (like cyanogen,slimrom etc) you can go under security>privacy guard find viber go into details and disable the vibretion fron there.

Is there a way to turn off the SMS delivery notification sound but keep the SMS received notification sound?
Not sure on the stock app, on handcent all the sounds/notifications can be modified or removed.
I use SMS Go Pro and it allows you to turn off SMS delivery notifications. That's the beauty of Android. Don't like the SMS app? Get a different one!
Anyone else?
I want to keep stock SMS app.

I too want to know this. Perhaps its possible to edit the code for the app itself just like the camera app has been modified?
Yeah, it can be tough on some of the stock android software since development minded folks seldom want to mess with something that already has multiple fully fleshed out apps to replace it. I kinda like touch wiz once its dewizified but there is almost nothing out there that you can add on to it or use to modify it. I did think of one thing though, they added some new setting adjustments into the messaging app in CM7. You might want to consider grabbing that and seeing if it brings this to the table. I cant recall all the changes in it as I didn't use it. That would be kinda stock messaging.
*BUMP*
Has anyone come up with a solution to this, or are we forced to use another app for SMS? I really like the stock app, but are very annoyed by the fact that I cannot change this sound or remove it.
My problem is completely the opposite, I am trying to turn the notification on with no luck.
neither sms go pro or stock are responding, ticked all boxes i.e. sounds, sms options...etc with no luck.
any ideas...running ics 4.0.4 on sg3
Hello all,
Its getting very annoying: everytime I pinch out on the homescreen to get to the homescreen selection section, a voice is saying some stuff I cant even understand, even in silent mode. Its getting me sick!
How can I disable it? Looked for it everywhere! Someone has a clue?
Thanks in advance.
Am I the only one with this problem? No one else?
I dont have any sounds when pinching on the homescreen.

Me either as far as I know your not meant to get any either?
Have you added an app as an accessibility service? Maybe Lightflow or Tasker? You can either remove those apps as accessibility services or you could use another launcher. This is a known bug which doesn't really have a perfect solution yet.

I had the same issue yesterday and i solved it
At first i thought it was driving mode(since that reads out things while you drive) then i checked accessibility settings and i disabled talk back(i think).....but that still didnt work.
Found out its lightflow....Has something to do with the app.I think you can disable it but i just removed the app completely and the voices stop
I'm still waiting for my s3 so can't check whether that does the trick or not but the developer of Missed It! said to check that both Talkback and Install Web Script (both in Accessibility settings) are set to off

I've had this problem too and I don't have Lightflow installed. For me, the solution was to go to Settings, Accessibility and under Services turn off 'Addons Detector' which I had installed.
So, perhaps it's anything installed in the Services section causes the problem. A bug perhaps?
Hi everyone, I'm currently unlocked and running the latest CM9 by jokersax. I usually set my phone to silent overnight, but I need to find a way to have a certain number always ring, regardless of the silent setting. I've tried a few market apps like SemiSilent and Selective Silence but they don't work. I don't know if it's the phone or ICS causing them not to work. Does anyone know of a way I can accomplish this? Thanks!

I use Tasker, but it's got a hell of a learning curve. However, you can set it up so if a call comes through from a specific contact it will temporarily turn the ringer volume up, then turn it back down. If you're genuinely interested, I can help you out setting up a Tasker profile to do that. Otherwise, not sure what else does what you want.

Night ringer... its in the app store works great you can set up to 5 different contacts and it will also let those contacts texts to you come thru also if you want.
Please try Automateit
Try AutomateIt available on google play and customize it as per your requirement.
Select a silent ringtone as default then just edit the contact you want to ring loud with another ringtone, done.
Hello.
I'm using a German version of the Galaxy S3 with stock 4.1.1 ROM.
I own it since few days, coming from iPhones and I'm still learning how to use it.
One very useful thing I've found is the blocking mode. I use it at night to stop notifications sound and to permit only my family calls to go through.
Whatsapp notifications, though, are still coming through and I'm forced to manually reduce the notifications volume to zero.
Is it a bug or am I missing something?
I've tried setting the blocking mode with both time range and "always", but no differences at all.
Thanks.
I was woken up this morning by whatsapp messages, so if anyone has an answer it'd be appreciated.
I am having the same problem.. i think the problem is with whatsapp itself it must be a bug as when u go to notification settings the "ringer" whats comes up as default tone not the notification tone.
hope this get resolved quick! i have emailed whatsapp but got standard email template... delete app ... reboot re install ..etc
No one has a solution?
I have the same problem but a month or two before it did worked. I guess that maybe an update of whatsapp has disabled this. It very annoying waking up because of that horrible whatsapp noise.
Update
Just installed JB 4.1.2 and the problem is still there.
So it seems to be a Whatsapp problem, and it's a very stupid management of the notifications.
The notifications should be managed by the system and if the system says "shut up" ALL notifications should comply.
For me this is a point in favor of iOS.
P.S.: not a fan boy of course. I own both devices and it's normal I compare them.
WhatsApp uses a different method to sounf notificiations, this is why it can sound notifications even playing music (other apps would mute/pause the music for the notification)
I guess someonr could patch WhatsApp, my smali knowledge isn't that good to do it myself.

I understand, but if Google implements a kind of "do not disturb" mode it should know that some apps can use music as notification sound and block that too...
Problem lies with whatsapp. I did mail them about it, no response :/ m forced to put my phone on silent always :/

[SOLUTION] Blocking Mode WhatsApp Sounds
First of all, I do know that this is a fairly old thread, HOWEVER, it is still the first result on google for "blocking mode whatsapp", so i figure this is where people look. So i hope you will forgive me.
I have found a solution to the very annoying problem which many people seem to suffer from.
I have found a way to include the whatsapp sounds under the android blocking mode.
You will need the LightFlow app, (which i believe is a must have app for the S3 anyways (OP said he uses a s3)).
after you got light flow:
1: In What's app:
- disable notification sounds for incoming messages(not in light flow, in whats app). set it to silent or disable at all
2: The go to light flow and:
- enable sound notifications for whats app
- set what ever notification sound you would like to have for whats app when blocking mode is NOT enabled
- under Sounds-->Volume control method-->tick "Android standard notification volume"
Now it you enable blocking mode, it also blocks what's app sounds and if blocking mode is disabled, everything is normal.
hope that helps....took me quite a while to figure it out.
edit: oh and i do not have any affiliation with the light flow app or their developers!!! i just used it for changing lights and came across the sound feature by chance!!!
its a shame. other blockers block it, why can't the native JB also do it?
furstrating. didn't want to install another software on the phone when the block mode works so well, except for whatsapp of course.
Does this exist with 4.2.2 as well?

Yeah, I've got a Nexus 4 on 4.2.2 and the issue is on that as well. It's a problem with the way whatsapp handles notifications, not the Android firmware version.
Thanks Tyler D for the solution, will be testing this later today.
I am experiencing the very same issue on my Samsung Galaxy S4 running 4.2.2.
Do you have any news? I tried to email whatsapp support a few days ago but I am still waiting their reply.

I've been having some trouble with receiving notifications on my desire X. Currently, i am on mySENSEdx+ RC3.0 custom rom / prototype-U custom kernel. I've had this issue even when i was on stock rom. Normally I receive notifications just fine but every now and then I don't get them unless i open the app itself like whatsapp, gmail or twitter etc. I am not sure what the issue is. Been using this app called "Push Notifications Fixer" and been testing different values on there but hasn't helped much. Out of all of my previous android phones, the only other phone that i've had this issue on was the HTC One X. I eventually got rid of that because of this issue and also because of it's battery life. I like the desire X and would like to keep it but this this issue with the push notifications does get a bit frustrating at times. Any suggestions that can help would be great.
P.S. I have searched throughout these forums and haven't found any solutions for this problem of mine and have also tried google but to no avail. Posting here as couldn't find any workable solution to this problem.
Do you have anything changed in autostart applications? When your phone boots, all the apps that receive notifications will be started automatically. If you changed something there the background service will start only when you start the app.

Nope. Haven't changed anything of that sort. This issue does not occur all the time but every once in a while in a couple of days etc. Haven't had any luck in trying to sort it out.
Same problem is here too...
Maybe this problem is because Google Cloud Messaging integrated in the apps. I have never had that problem with notifications, but if u have maybe used Greenify app, task killer or something, it maybe messing around wih that noticication system...
Edit: do u have outlook or some other app that are not making any trouble with the notifications?

The problem I've had with the push notifications seems to have decreased - It doesn't happen as often anymore - Changed a few settings and removed a task manager i had downloaded plus also changed settings in the Greenify app etc - Haven't had any issues off-late - If you are using similar apps, try changing the settings etc and see if that helps you maybe as it seems to have worked for me -

Yea I think your right - The issue seems to be with the Google Cloud push services - I got rid of the task manager and changed settings on Greenify and so far haven't had issues with the push notifications again - I don't use outlook on my phone - Mostly, the issue occured with whatsapp / twitter etc - Gmail and the email client on the phone were fine - The only reason this was odd for me was because I haven't had this issue with other phones that i've used before the DX - the only other phone that gave me this kind of trouble was the HTC One X - but for now the issue seems to have been resolved - Going to keep my fingers crossed and hopefully the problem won't occur again
P.S. Thank you everyone for your replies
