Notification questions - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

I'm new to the Samsung phones and can't seem to get notifications to show up on my lockscreen or get the led to flash. I know you have to set this up per app in settings but I can't seem to find an option that allows for this with notification sound turned off. I'm especially having issues with Twitter and Gmail.
TIA for the help.

If your profile is "silent" or "vibrate", the notification sound won't come out.

[Q] How to turn off email vibration alert?

Every email I get, I have a small vibration alert.
I only wants an alert on the notification bar, without any sound or vibration.
I managed to set the sound to Silent, but I can't find any settings to avoid the vibration.
This option is freaking me out.
I got dozens of emails every day - each one the phone vibrates.
Am I the only one?!
I'm sure your not dude.
In the settings/sound did you untick "Sound and vibration"?
I have found a work around temporarily before they update the software with a more discrete management of vibration in different notifications.
Under settings - sounds - vibration intensity you can set the notification vibration to nil.
I primarily use this for it to only vibrate when phone call comes and all other notification i only want sound and no vibration.
You should be able to do this by opening up your email application> settings> select your desired email account> you should now be able to adjust your email notification settings from the available options.
Hope this helps

Jelly Bean Notification Vibrations

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.

[Q] Notifications

Okay so this has happened on several themes that I've installed on my phone with this app...For whatever reason if my phone is on vibrate or for that matter with the volume up and I don't hear the notification sound of either a text or email, the notifications do not show up. The only way I know as if I check the notification bar...Is this a known issue?
Thanks

Hi, for now Themer only supports stock notifications to show up (if it's a widget). However they should show up as icon badges (see the Themer Settings Menu - Icon Badges, to see which apps it is set for). Themer doesn't change any sound settings though.
Hope this helps!

[Q] Disabling heads up notifications on Lollipop

Hello,
I've updated my WhatsApp last night to v2.11.476 and it starts showing heads up notifications that, no matter what i try, unable to turn off. This only happens to individual chats though. Group chats still behave like before, i.e. icon just show up in the notification bar.
I also cant disable the vibrations no matter which settings i use. This is driving me nuts. Is there a way i can tun the heads up notifications off ONLY for specific apps? I suppose once I'm able to do this the problem with the vibrations will go off too.
Thanks.
With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!
No root needed.
You can also restore the ticker text in the statusbar!
Give it a try:

Google Voice Peek Notification issue

Apologize if this is a duplicate. Search did not bring back the info I was looking for.
Having the problem with Google voice text. I want to disable the peek notifications while the phone is on. So I'm not interrupted doing other things.
I have set all the settings to make noise only, but i still get the peek notification when a text is received.
I did notice that on the HUD when you swipe the notification and click on the settings icon for the notification, the Uncategorized section in the notification area for the google voice app flashes to focus attention.
I double checked on my Essential Ph-1 the uncategorized section can be set to Allow sound, but on my S9+ there is not a setting in this category for sound only. Just let app decide. If i turn sound off for the categorized section then I do not get GV text message notifications.
To clarify what I want to do is suppress the peek notifications for GV text messages while the phone is on, but allow a sound to play.
Weird that my Ph-1 would allow this but the S9+ does not even allow the change of the setting.
