Seems to be popular with Samsung phones, so as the title says, external speaker is not muted or sounds don't pass to the headphones. Usually on my other phones, if I did know or felt silent mode wasnt working, id just plug in my headphone and be done but with my S6 is doing this now and I don't remember it doing it before.
Any ideas?
update: I uninstall some apps, and for a moment gmail notification were routed to the headphones, I kept sending myself emails and it started it doing it again
update 2: Ah great great, now, notications don't come through, I was sending myself emails but now they don't even show up and I just updated gmail. I have to manually pull down on gmail to refresh to see new emails. My settings in both gmail and the phone were account were auto sync

For some reason this only applies to K9 mail
When I get an email, there is no sound notification. At first I thought it was a bug with the sound file I selected (so I got rings extended) and that didn't help. Keep sending/receiving emails and still no sound. I checked my sound settings, there are bars on everything and the phone is not on vibrate/mute
I also got E-Mail notifier thinking a different program could call the sound but it doesn't play it either! What is going on? Stock sound files won't play... is there a problem with my rom? (axura 2.2)
When I click on the sound file it previews properly. Notifications work properly with sms. Not sure what is going on, any ideas?
Ok I am a newbie with this phone and android..... have had no problems, except everytime I get an email, it beeps, which wouldn't be a problem but at night or when I dont want it to. I have even put silent on it, ringtone under notifications on email settings.
I have set up yahoo as my main email on this phone. I had to turn OFF the phone last night because it wouldnt stop.
Thanks
Sorry if this has been asked and answered already, but I couldn't find anything.
When I receive TXT messages while connected via bluetooth, my Samsung Focus would give me the option to read the message. For some reason my Titan doesn't do this on the same BT devices I was using with the Focus.
I can compose TXT messages and do other voice functions via BT, but I never get that new message notification and it never gives me the option to read the messages. Is there a setting or something that I am missing?
Thanks
Yes. Setting->Speech. At the bottom of that page is how you would like incoming text message be read.
Thanks. It was set to Bluetooth only already. I'll try Bluetooth and headsets and see if that fixes it.

What I found interesting of this feature is that while connected to my home phone's built-in cell phone BT gateway (which supports headset profile only), it will announce it via phone's speaker once. Then it rings my home phone until I pick it up, then announce the same thing through my home phone (via BT).
Unfortunatly that still doesn't work. Very odd
One Crucial thing that I have noticed with the reading text messages out feature, is that it Won't read anything unless you have the ringer set to sound. And I mean actually Sound not vibrate. It makes Sense, as if you don't Want your ringer to Sound, Why would you want the phone to yell out your text message?Try that and see if that Works.
Ah good call. I'm rarely more than a few feet from my phone, so lately I almost always leave it in vibrate only.
Thanks, now I can txt in the car again
I noticed this before I rooted my phone and it is starting to bug me. I have already check roaming notifications and all are off. What happens is at random times I get a doorbell sound from my phone and the notification light blinks. No notification are displayed, no gmail, no email, no text message. Does anyone have a clue what is causing this notification, and if so how do I disable it?

Do you have Yahoo Mail installed? You can tell it to not put notification in the toolbar but it'll still make the sound and flash the notification light. It's default sound kind of sounds like a doorbell. For me that mail account gets a lot of junk so I don't want to be notified I have mail unless I manually check. Overall I hate that app and with my new EVO I just use HTC's email application.
I get the same thing and it happens when I go into roam, no matter what roaming notification settings I turn off. I posted this issue in other forums and haven't had any luck. My next step is to install stock ROM and see if maybe there's just something on the software side screwed up.

You are correct it was yahoo mail. I had turned off notifications but did not turn off sound. Thanks for your help.
Glad I could help. I had the same exact issue on my OG evo after Yahoo updated that app.
Hello,
I like having notifications for all apps turned on, but there is pretty annoying stuff going on in all messaging apps we have.
For example
-if someone is sending you texts or messages via messenger, whatsapp, or viber or anything else, you are getting constant notifications sound everyfew seconds.
-if you have group messages and people are sending messages you constantly getting notifications
My question is, is there a way you could enable for all apps that: If you receive notification from app X and get notification sound, and if you get another notification from the same app, the sound does not happen because it is such short time before last and this notification. And we could setup for example allow sound only after there was 1min or 5 min after last notification sound, when it allows for the sound to happen again.
That way you could receive notification sound only every 1min or 5min or whatever you setup, if you have group chat and people are constantly typing something. Because if not, you are getting the sound every 3seconds.
I hope you understand and can help with this
Thank you
