I am an attorney and always need to completely silence my VZW note 2. It is rooted and running "Jelly beans 22 rom". In settings under Accessibility there is a check mark to "turn off all sounds" this works perfectly. I have tried to find an apk or way to either add this to the home screen or better still add it as a toggle. The standard sound toggle does not completely silence the phone. In settings under sound the does not silence the music etc. Thanks

I have litening Rom 5 installed & running Go Launcher. I notiiced that when I was receiving text messages or when it was on silent I did not get the vibration alert. I then changed the settings so that the its set to vibration always and the icon appears on the top. However when I go into the pull down screen the sound icon is gone?
All I want is to be able to put the phone in silent and it will vibrate when I receive a text message or a phone call. The same goes when its not in silent. Also how can I tell if phone is in silent mode as its not given me the sound icon on the pull down menu?
Is it something simple I am missing more than likely
Confused
If the option in Dropdown menu is missing then just hold Power button, you will see the first option as Silent mode/Sound is Off/On.
And I didn't get you clearly on the SMS vibration part, just make sure that 'Vibrate always' is enabled under Settings- Sound- Vibration.
Regards.
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.
Hey guys so I was wondering if there's a way to manage the notifications for apps separately. From what I understand this is a new feature of 4.2. I know I can get around it in liquidsmooth but I'm now back on touchwiz and would like a work around.
So here's the issue...
When in vibrate mode all notifications vibrate if the app's settings have sound notifications on. It doesn't matter if I uncheck vibrate in the app's settings.
What I would like to do is...
Be able to be in these three modes
1) silent mode - every notification is silent
2) vibrate mode - my texts, Google voice, Facebook messenger, and hangouts notifications vibrate, NOT my emails and various push notifications
3) sound mode - all notifications make a sound
This has been possible in previous versions of android and in aosp roms but haven't found a way to in touchwiz yet, haven't even found an app to manage notifications. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I have been searching high and low for a work around, no luck yet.
I set my default notification to silent, then I change any apps I want to be able to make sound to a different sound. After reboots (sometimes on a soft reboot, but always if i just pull the batter) the phone defaults the notification setting back to Crystal.
Anyone else experience this? Some apps don't have the ability to just disable the sound notification so I find it easier to only allow the sounds that I want (basically texts and google hangouts) any other suggestion are appreciated.

I have made sure of...
1) Volume is on for the ringer
2) Do not disturb is not enable
3) I can hear the audio from apps - youtube videos, podcasts, music etc
This only started happening with the latest update. After a certain point during up time, I no longer will hear any notification sounds - phone calls, text messages, emails to my inbox, keep alerts, assistant activating
A reboot fixes this.
Anyone else experiencing this?
I've just been around a similar frustrating loop. I'm not a developer and I don't have GAPPS installed so try this and if it doesn't work somebody else more expert may eventually help. Use the settings search box it helps to find your way around. First make sure you have 'Do not Disturb' options turned off (gray). Sound options on my Samsung Lineage17 seem to be in 2 places. The place you find from Settings\Sound shows the volume sliders which should be up. Tap them and check the sound is there. In sound settings you can mute any of these and the green sound bar will show gray. I don't link the ring and notification volumes (gray, off).
Now type 'default notification sound' in the search box and tap the result Default notification sound/sound. Very strangely this puts up the same sound settings as before but with more options to change sound files. I've not yet discovered how to get to this extended screen from Settings. With no GAPPS the default lineageOS sounds are in the OS somewhere I haven't found yet. Installing GAPPS puts Google sound files in the usual root folder.
Before I tried changing from the LineageOS default sound to point my file browser to my custom folder I had no SMS default sound. I had to wipe the System and Dalvick caches then reboot. Since you said you have sounds until some time later, I'm wondering if you have delayed 'Do Not disturb' options set? When you first boot and sound works, check the volume sliders all show green (unmuted). Then when your sounds stop, go back and see if the volume sliders now show gray (muted)? In the past I've found some 3rd party Apps using sounds can interfere with normal default operation and you have to go through the pain of finding the culprit. Good luck.
