Hi Guys,
I've noticed a problem with my Whatsapp the last couple of days, I have single messages to vibrate when coming through, but group messages to not vibrate (I'm in a lot of groups and its problematic when I'm at work )
I've uninstalled/reinstalled, and its swtiched off in app, but no matter what, I still get vibration when a group message comes through, which is a lot.
Has anyone else noticed this? I've looked through the S5 settings but cant seem to find anything to fix it. It's only happened since I updated WA 2 days ago.
Also, I should add, I changed my cache from dalvik to ART, so maybe that could be it?
Cheers.

In groups or single notification... there is an independent configurations; I had ART and Dalvik and no vibration at all
Hi Mate,
I never had any issues at all until the other day, I originally used the in app settings to control vibration, but even if they are both off it wil still vibrate for new messages,
I've gone back to Dalvik as the phone was begining to lag and hang, but still have the issue with whatsapp.
Sorry guys, I didn't realise it was that confusing.
the break it down.
Until the latest update (about 3-4 days ago) I had single messages in WA to vibrate, but group ones not to vibrate. This was controlled in the App itself, via settings -> Notifications.
So I had Vibrate: Default for Message (single) notifications and Group Notifications Vibrate: Off.
BUT it still vibrates for group message, even though its off.
Does that make sense now?

This is happening with me too since the last update and is driving me nuts!
Hello!
I'm having a similar problem, did you manage to find a solution?
I had opened a thread about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/whatsapp-bug-please-help-t2824223
I reported the bug to Whatsapp, they told me it's a feature lol! I asked them if this was indeed a feature then what's the use of the "default" setting under notification->Vibration. No answer.
I upgraded Whatsapp about 5 times to different new versions to no avail. I even uninstalled it and reinstalled it to no avail.
Is there any solution? Can we use tasker to fix this?
Thank you kindly.
Issues Resolved???
Hello!!
I am also in a similar situation.
My phone(HTC M8) Vibrates even after all the Vibrations are turned off.
But this happens only when the phone is in Vibration mode or Silent Mode.
In the Normal mode audio comes but no Vibrations.
Need to stop all Vibrations for Whatsapp Notifications.
Any Suggestions??
Thanks!!

And still the same issue in 2015 with rooted nexus 5
Is the issue resolved or not? I have the same issue and can't tell why. my nexus 5 is boozloader unlocked but no modificationa done, aswell stock rom and kernel. tried rebooting, and playing with every imaginable setting concerning notifications.
Could be drunk from too much boozloader

Reporting this bug to whatsapp since april 2014? or early....but they don´t do nothing.
I found a workaround: If you want no vibration put Whatssapp Tone notification: None
I suggest all whatsapp vibrate problem :
Go play store and install app ops and than reboot your phone open app ops and find whatsapp kill permission of vibrate
Wattsup just updated.
Also make sure you have Notification for GROUPS and individual messages turned to OFF in Wattsup Settings !!
1st seleck on vibtare on go back exit from app and now select off may be its work
Im also face this problem in my note3
Same problem here with 2.12.194. Before the update I had individual messages vibrate on and group message vibrate off. Now with every message in a group chat the phone vibrates. I already uninstalled and installed whatsapp, deleted cache, even downgraded to 2.12.193 where I didn't had this problem but now it's present!!! :S:S:S:S

For those people who end up in this thread because they experience this issue: I've found a solution.
Go to: Settings --> Notifications --> Notification Sound --> "Silent" AND Settings --> Notifications --> Vibrate --> "Off"
Do this for single messages, or group messages, or both, whichever you need.
The problem is that if you set a sound (instead of silent) for these messages, but then set your phone to silent/vibrate, it will try to play the sound when you receive a message, but the phone, not Whatsapp, will "convert" it to vibrate.
I can confirm it on WA 2.12.252, even if Notification sound and Vibrate are set to Off :/

even though this is an ola thread I made an account just to thank you for this post, been driving me nuts for days!!
I am very happy with my Gear S so far, only one ting is bothering me:
I don't receive any SMS Notifications on my Gear S (when paired by bluetooth to my phone), as a matter of fact I am not able to check the stock program "Messages" in the Notifications of Gear Manager, it just isn't there. Anyone has similar problems or a solution? Thank you!
Every time I thought something was not working right on my Gear S, it turned out to be user error
I almost brought mine back to T-Mobile because of that!
I assume you are in the US and have separate SIM cards for watch and Samsung phone? For that matter, I assume you have a compatible Samsung phone connected to Gear S?
If yes, here is how I set up my settings:
In Gear app on phone:
Notifications - manage notifications - make sure messages are enabled (along with all other apps you want to see notifications for, but I suggest to limit those, don't pick everything, the watch starts buzzing all the time then and it tends to drain the battery)
Limit notifications - don't check
List view - I have that checked
Settings - use remote connection checked
On Gear S:
Settings - mobile networks - use mobile networks: set to always on
If you use auto on/off, you will not receive any SMS sent to watch # while connected to phone via BT
Settings - notifications : check both list view and notifications
Settings - Messages - outgoing number: mobile device
Make sure you don't have "do not disturb" enabled under settings. I use that feature every night when the Gear charges and I sleep...it charges on my nightstand and drove me nuts the first night buzzing every time I received any type of notification...
Hope this helps!

Yes. Everything was working this morning, but I received a text on my mobile and several emails, but they haven't appeared on the watch. And like you I can no longer see the stock sms app or email app in the list of notifications in Gear Manager!
This is very frustrating .

Update: I completely uninstalled then reinstalled Gear Manager - (which resulted in the Gear being factory reset too). This solved the problem but it did mean reinstalling and setting up all my apps from scratch which took forever.
It seems I was doing some clearing out of unused apps using a memory cleaning app that was a bit too thorough. I deleted one of the Gear Manager's components .

hi guys, im having a little bit of a problem and hopefully you guys can help.
all of the sudden, my sms is not being forwarded to the gear s whilst connected via bluetooth.
it was working fine yesterday and for some reason, for the entire day today, i recevied sms on my phone but its not displaying/forwarded onto the gear s.
i checked the notification setting and the messaging app is checked and is the default app.
also tried resetting the gear s and repaired it with the phone and still no dice. im using the note edge btw so i know its not the phone
any input will be great, thank you
Have you tired to manually update the watchphone and the Gear manager
Since the latest update of the gear manager i don't receive any messages on my gear anymore. Make and receive phone calls work. Anyone else have this and have a solution for this? I unchecked and checked in the settings the notifications but that didn't did the trick. Any help or recognition is appreciated.
After the last update s voice sends texts to whomever it feels like and call whomever it feels like. Svoice call bob........it replies calling bob.....then phones a random person from my address book. Meh 1st world problems.

Same thing happened to me. I was receiving all other notifications except messages. All I did was power cycle my gear s and it fixed it
Naw I just factory reset the gear and reinstalled gear manager and now it works again. Tnx
