[Q] Q : "Slim Bean 4.3 Stable" and sound only profile - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I want to create a "sound only profile" (only sound for calls and sms, NO vibration) in the "System Settings / General / Profiles" section, but it seems I can't set the correct values to do that :laugh:
I have played with the "Ring Mode", "Applications Groups", "Vibrate Mode", ... parameters with no luck. Can any1 help me out here?

I'm also on Slim 4.3. I don't actually use the profiles, but having a quick play around with it just now, what happens when you:
1. Pick the settings of a profile (I randomly chose 'Home')
2. Scroll to the bottom of the profile settings
3. Click 'Phone'
4. Turn vibrate off, and sound on.
5. Repeat 3&4 for SMS.
If you also want to disable all vibration in all apps other than the ones specifically listed, then what about repeating steps 3&4 for the 'Other' listing? Ie, two listings above SMS? I would think that would disable all the vibration but make all apps able to play notification sounds, that is for all the apps which aren't specifically listed there. I guess you'd have to configure those individually using steps 3&4.

Anoying Text Notification While On The Phone

Hello,
I have a Sprint Version of the TP and when I am on the phone and get a text message there's this really loud annoying ring sound that goes off 3 times in a row and I can't hear what my caller is saying when its going off. Is there anyway to remove this or at least change the sound to something that's not as annoying like maybe a quiet 1 beep?
Thanks for the help

Go to settings-> all settings -> personal -> sounds and notification -> notification. Then open up the drop down bow and select Messaging: New Text Message. Next select ring type and select None from the bottom. =)

The "Play Sound" box is Unchecked but the "Vibrate" box is checked. I have no "None" option.
All I have is "Play Sound" (if enabled "repeat"), "Display Message On Screen", "Flash Light For" (Which is grayed out), and "Vibrate".
~~~~~~~~~~~~EDIT~~~~~~~~~~~1/21/09
I went to "settings -> personal -> sounds and notification -> Sounds" and Unchecked the "notifications (alarms, reminders)" and it worked! No more annoying sound while on the phone.
~~~~~~~~~~~EDIT~~~~~~~~~~~~1/22/09
I Noticed when I did the above it disabled my phone from vibrating when I get a text even thou its checked in the "Vibrate" box, so I am back to needing help with this. Is there any way to make it so the phone does vibrate when not in a call but also not make the annoying notify ringtone???
Thanks!

Vibrate + Ring?

So on my old 2.3 ROM I could choose to have my phone always vibrate. Now on ICS I can't find that setting. It isn't there. Vibrate can only come on when in silent mode.
Is there any quick fix to enable this again? Or maybe an app that someone knows of?
I want this function , too
In cm9 I can just go to sound (or what ever it is in english version) and select: vibration + ringtone

Download the app "Sound manager" from the market, U can choose there for 'Vibrate settings' in the menu, and resolve that problem bij choosing VIbrate whenever possible

It's in the quick panel which you can pull down from above.Tap the sound icon and it will cycle through sound - vibration - silent - sound vibration.
Or you can download the "sound manager" . it's pretty good.
P.S: It seems every app in ICS has their own notification settings . And in default most of them are set to not to vibrate when a notification pops up.So check out apps' settings first.

Do not disturb app exceptions

On my S8 I was able to allow certain apps to be excepted from DnD. I cannot find the place to make that change on the 9. I changed ged DnD to custom, but cannot find another place to select the apps I want to be exceptions. Not under the app, not under special permissions (only a short lost of system tools). This one has me stumped.

Which apps are you speaking of? I can see the DnD exception in various apps on mine. You have to dig deep in menus to find them. For example...
Samsung Messages > Settings > Notifications > General Notifications > DnD custom exception.
Gmail > Settings > Manage Notifications > Email >DnD custom exception
Skype > Settings > Do Not Disturb > Receive push notifications while DnD is on.
Then again other like Whatsapp are in the S9 Settings > Apps area
Apps >Whatsapp > Message notifications > DnD custom exception
Having said this it is a it and miss if the DnD exception actually works it seems. I cannot get it to drive side light notifications for Gmail.

Active 911 and I am Responding are the two I want to make exceptions for. Unfortunately, they worked before. Maybe it was going to 8.0 that did it as my S8 didn't get updated until after I switched to the S9.

Update-the exception switch is there for I am Responding. Still searching for Active 911.

I had the same problem (switched phones, couldn't find the DnD exceptions). Ended up here with a Google search.
I found the exceptions under Settings, Notifications, then tap the app you want to create an exception for. It'll be in that next menu.
Previously, there was an "exceptions" menu where you select multiple apps at once to create exceptions for. Now you have to create an exception for each app one at a time. Thanks Android!
Follow up to DND settings issue
Quick follow up to this thread question - after you have set the exception per app and set the custom settings to bypass DND for particular groups, those excepted contacts and apps should override the sound setting, right? I just noticed I missed a tornado warning overnight because the phone was set to DND and silent. I found the emergency provider app to turn on the DND exception but when i go to test the alert sound for emergency alerts via the sms settings, the alert is still on vibrate somehow. Is there something I am missing to allow me to hear emergency alert notifications while in silent/DND mode? I have a Samsung galaxy s7, latest OS with AT&T if that helps. Thanks!

I've been wondering the same thing. There are some things I want to alert me regardless of the phone being muted.
I read a thread a while back where a previous Blackberry user who switch to another smartphone couldn't believe that the only apps that would override mute was 'alarm clock' and 'timer'. Basically, they wanted calendar events to notify them.
So, ya, if there's a tornado coming or you have an extremely important event you'd like to plan for 3 months from today, there's not alarm for that that overrides mute as far as I can tell.
I had the same issue. Active 911 as well. I found the setting within the Active911 app settings. Settings>Notification Settings>Do Not Disturb Exception.

Remove DND Ring APP Exception
I need to remove Ring Doorbell App from DND exceptions. I have been looking for hours for a way to do this. Been through the Ring App itself, Phone Settings>Apps, Settings>Notifications, Settings>DND... I can not find a way to remove the DND permission for the Ring App. Help?
On Note 9 (8.1) I go to "Settings" > "Apps" > choose an app > "Notifications" > tap on notification category in "Categories" section > "Do not disturb custom exception"

Confusion with Sound / Do no disturb Profiles on Oreo 8.1

Hello
I reinstalled my phone. Exactly same as before. Resurrection Remix 6.2. There is one thing I can't set up anymore.
In the status bar, there is an icon to toggle to enable / disable 'do not disturb'. Either it's on or off. Before I had a 3rd option. Do not disturb, except calls. Now, I can't use three profiles. Only two.
I'm sure someone has an suggestion how to set it up correctly.
Again:
Profile 1: Do not disturb (except alarms)
Profile 2: disable 'do not disturb'
Profile 3: do not disturb but calls
I was able to click the icon two times to change the profiles.
Now, if I want activate Profile 3 I have to pull down the icon to enter the settings.
I barely remember that I somewhere changed what the phone understands as high priority. And suddenly a 3rd. type of the icon appeared. But now, I can't reproduce it. Even though it must be possible since I installed the same OS.
nobody?

For some reason I noticed the device does not vibrate for any type of notifications.
SMS, Email, Calendar etc.
Anyone know how to fix this.
I tried going into setting and sounds , i am only able to set vibrate patterns on ring only, nothing for sms or notifications.

Hi @rinnycoop121,
First and foremost, are you certain that all of your vibration settings are correctly set?
First, check all of the following sections within settings:
Sounds & Vibration (Vibration & Silent)
Make sure that "Vibration" is on
Sounds & Vibration (Sound Effects and Modes)
Make sure that "Default notification sound" is set to a sound you can adequately hear
System > Accessibility (Vibration & haptic strength)
Make sure that it is on for "Notification vibration"
Then, for each app you wish to change the notification settings for, do the following::
Go into the "App info" (Settings) of the app, select "Notifications", and then make sure everything you want is checked.
You would do the same thing for every other app where you want notifications to appear.
If the previous procedures did not solve your issue, there is an external app that you may utilize. "BuzzKill," which specializes in notification automation, is the one I'm most acquainted with. According to the Google Play store, BuzzKill "allows you to see the notifications you want to see when you want to see them and filter out those you don't". I suppose "BuzzKill" may be the answer you're looking for to solve your notification issue.
