I have the Samsung GN2 which I rooted and flashed the AOKP ROM and associated GAPPS. I love the ROM, but I am having two issues.
1. The phone does not vibrate at all. Not for ANY notifications, whether in vibrate only mode or in sound + vibrate mode. I checked the phone's system settings to make sure that the vibrate option has been checked, and it has. It is set to the "AOKP" vibrate pattern. Each individual app's settings (email, messaging, gmail, etc) also have vibrate checked. There is an option to make a custom vibration and no vibrations will play in that feature nor can I record a new one. It's almost as if the ROM knocked out the phone's ability to vibrate.
2. The volume at it's max setting is very weak, almost like any other phone at 40-50% volume. This affects the speaker phone option, youtube, etc.
Everything else works 100%
I've searched this forum as well as others, the AOKP website for answers, and the suggested similar threads that pop up before you post, and can't find any thread or webpage addressing these specific issues or providing a working solution. I'm not a noob at this - this is the 4th Android phone I've rooted/flashed ROMs/etc - but I also don't posess the advanced knowledge of a programmer/developer.
Are these issues anyone has heard of?
How do I fix this without getting rid of the AOKP ROM?
The attached photo is a screenshot of my phone's info. I'd be happy to provide any other info if needed.
FYI, I haven't wiped and re-flashed the ROM yet.
Thanks in advance!

Hi, I was wondering if anyone can help me. Ive lost or somehow turned off the alert "beep". That you hear when you do certain things.
These include when you send a text, the box that pops up letting you know its been sent(I know some people are happy without this alert) it would make a beep sound.
It also happens(Not sure why) when you use the search bar in opera and click enter or press the search icon on the bar.
Its just a short beep that I love, not sure why I cant hear it on anything anymore, not sure what else it used to trigger the sound, but I really miss it and hope someone at least knows what Im talking about and can possibly help me bring it back.
Thanks guys, hope I can get this resolved soon.
EDIT: It also makes this beep sound when you turn the device on. I just heard it on my phone, but it only seems to do it when I turn it on now.
Ok, maybe Im crazy and it never made this sound. Sorry guys if thats it. Im kinda thinking it never did make this sound. hehe. But if it does let me know. In fact it does still make the beep in opera, so I was wrong about that.
The beep you hear at boot is related to the following >Start>Settings>Sounds & Notifications) the check box is probably ticked for "events"-warnings,system events. As far as notifications otherwise (email voice etc.) try the notifications tab of the prior and drill down through each setting for the events listed in the drop down box. You can most likely set Voice Command to notify some events if preferred. Go to >Start>Settings>Voice Command. From that screen chose the "Notifications" radio button for the items listed in each category listed to the left and choose "Announce notifications using bluetooth......." or "Announce notifications through........" per your preferences. Hope this helps you out.
I have an odd issue - whenever I turn up the Ringer volume a song starts playing (that stock Marisa Cristina song). This is even though I am not being called! Turning up or down the ringer volume does nothing to the loudness, but if I put the phone on silent or vibrate the music stops playing.
I have tried 3 or 4 ROMs before this one and had no problems with any of them so far....
I was hoping someone might know how to fix this bug?
So why are you paying this here?
Does this have to do with development.
Yes, it has plenty to do with development - its clearly a very serious problem because it means I can't put the phone on anything but vibrate or silent.
General is for conversations like "oh I think I want Android instead of Windows Mobile"
Will there be any comments that are actually useful rather than the pointless argumentativeness of the previous comment?
EDIT: I just realised, I did not make it clear in my first post that I am looking for a solution to my problem. I thought that would be self-explanatory but if it wasn't, I apologise.
This is an incredibly annoying issue. I've got a GSM Galaxy Nexus, and it is playing a random notification sound constantly. The strangest thing is that the sound isn't mapped to anything. Like, if I set the default notification to silent, it still plays the same random sound all the time.
I've tried using an app that tracks notifications, but it didn't find anything. I've checked through every app, and none are set to use this sound. And, I'm not using Yahoo Mail (which I've read is often the culprit in things like this).
I'd rather not have to do a hard reset, because the issue started just after a hard reset when I set up the phone for my wife. It's running stock Android 4.2.2, not rooted.
Anyone have any ideas what's going on here?

I'm having the same problem. I haven't checked yet to see if it's just the one notification sound by changing my settings, but my default notification definitely goes off randomly. There is no associated notification indicated on my phone, just the sound. I too downloaded an app that tracks notifications and it didn't find anything either. Nor am I using Yahoo! Mail.
Sometimes it's just one random notification sound. However a few times it's gone off about 10-15 times in a span of 30-seconds. It's really annoying. I too would love to avoid a hard reset, as I just got this phone brand new less than a month ago.
Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4, not rooted, Android 4.2.2
Guys please help: I recently purcashed a LG Vista LG-D631. Within the next 24 hrs the phone was changed to 5.0.1 without my knowledge. That's when I started to notice that the sound changes to Priority, or No Interruptions automatically. Most of the time, the settings get changed at around 500am. My alarm is set for 530 am so I do not have any sound to wake up, only vibration. I have checked almost every morning, in the settings, Sound , Interruptions, and it is set to ALL, no check marks on calendar, incoming or new messages. The schedule section remains unchecked for all days of the week, and the From and To times are not highlighted. I have gone through each of my apps to determine if one of the Apps has a notification set, but none of the apps have check marks next to them. Lately I have rooted the phone, which works great, except for the NO INTERRUPTIONS that turn on by itself.
I have been searching the internet on how to change the settings with no luck. Please give some ideas.
Thanks in advance.
So I got myself an S9+ this past weekend and have been getting used to it for the past few days. Sunday or Monday, I turned on power saving as I have it on on my Galaxy Tab A 10.1 with no issues. Well after activating it, notifications stopped. I didn't get any Gmail notifications, no Discord notifications or Groupme notifications. I thought it was weird and started browsing for what could be the problem. After browsing and chatting with their support, who said I should be getting notifications, I decided to turn off power saver and send myself an email to test. Imagine my surprise when the notification came through.
Does anyone know why Power Saving Mode would disable notifications that have complete permissions and urgent settings for their notifications? Is this a reported issue or are there forum posts I haven't seen yet regarding my issue?
Thanks!

There are different levels to the power saving mode however you should always get TXT messages. Check the options that you select in Power Saver mode. That could be the difference. I would be more direct but I dont have my phone, its upstairs.

I had similar issues and had to dig around get advice from these forums before I finally made all the issues go away. Power Saving mode can put applications into a permanent sleep mode where they can't run unless you specifically call for them. Which means all those apps you mention aren't able to wake up to check for notifications even if they were pushed to your phone. It's annoying to open your application to check for messages, and after reading the message it tells you "Hey! You got a message!!" (because now you opened the app and it could check notifications).
The other issue I found was "Doze". After 20 min with the screen off, the phone enters a low power mode where it won't accept notifications pushed to it. This is oddly, completely separate from power saving options. It is possible to hand select applications that you never want to Doze (I believe). It was tricky to find.
