Title says it all, but it's still vague as hell. Vibrate problems on ringing/notification? Haptic feedback in general? Elaboration is your friend.
Staying on post, I didn't notice any vibration issues while I had it turned on, but its since been turned off to conserve battery life.
I have this problem all the time, Im vague for everything without realizing it. I meant vibrate for notifications. I tried turning it on in settings but nothing.
If you want it to vibrate for your text messages you must go into the settings in the messaging app and turn it on as well as in the global settings. Same for email i believe.
Well, that did it. thank you very much.
thx that helps me too.
I just want to chime in on this situation and say that I had the same problem on my completely stock evo shift. One moment it worked perfectly and the next it didn't. After several attempts at checking settings and hard/soft resetting, come to find out it was a faulty motor in mine that worked when it wanted to. Had my phone replaced at the sprint store after a supposed cleaning fixed it and then failed again after 3 vibrating notifications. Just another possible resolution/observation.

Actually I have the opposite problem, I cannot disable notifications vibration ( for messages ) on MIUI ... but I found out this was caused by the apps settings ( Fb messanger / Wechat / What'sup )

Whoa - So in an effort to get to a point where my phone would ring for calls (and only calls) - Outlined in this thread - I've somehow managed to completely do away with vibration for notifications.
I'm running Cyanogen 4.2.14.1.
In other words - The device will audibly notify, but not vibrate, except for calls - Of course, I've double-and-triple checked everything, all my vibration settings for notifications are fine and I've uninstalled all the various applications that I was using to do it.
It has to be a preference that got knocked out of whack by one of the above-listed utilities...
What's my next option to get vibration back?
Thanks,
Noah
Hey Noah,
I had the exact same problem as you. I had no idea why my vibration died on me. Turned on the phone, it gave a vibrate so it definately wasn't broken. Checked and made sure all the vibration stuff was enabled. Unfortunately, I decided to reflash the rom! I simply backed up my stuff using MyBackup, wiped, flashed the rom again and the vibration came back. It takes a few minutes, not too long but make sure you use the mybackup or any other backup program otherwise setting up everything again is a pain in the arse. Maybe someone else has a better solution but if not (I think it's better you don't wait too long for another suggestion! lol), just do this and you should be ok!
edit
I just re-read your post and checked out the other thread. How the heck did you manage to stop vibrations but not turn them back on? That is so weird.. double check everything. Check settings within text messages and see if its all enabled again. In the worst case scenario, youll probably have to do the above
I have a stock Froyo 2.2 Captivate. For the past month or two, whenever my phone is in vibrate only mode, the phone vibrates for phone calls, but does not vibrate properly for Gmail notifications. Specifically, if I'm holding the phone in my hand when a gmail arrives, I see the notification in the notification bar and feel the most slight millisecond vibration of the phone. I've tried checking general sound settings, gmail settings, and downloaded "Sound Manager" without any luck.
Somehow, it seems that the default vibrate has went from a long bold buzz to this slight millisecond buzz and I haven't found a way to get that back. I know you can customize those settings in specific situations with software such as HandCent but I don't know about fixing the general default vibrate buzz...
Any ideas for troubleshooting? Anyone with a solution?
Thanks!
There are separate notification settings for gmail...have you turned on vibration there?
Sent from my Cappy
Yea, the gmail settings are set for vibration.
and technically i'm getting vibration notifications, but the vibration is so slight and so short that I can only feel it if i'm holding the phone in my hand. settings> sound> vibration settings look normal and I can feel vibration with incoming phone calls but the vibrations for notifications are nearly imperceptible.
Ideas?
No one hear of this problem? Anywhere else I could look for solutions? I haven't been able to find anything about it around the web...

i have the same problem..no vibration settings for gmail!! i remember i could find them a couple of months ago...weird
For anyone coming across this problem:
After updating to the official Gingerbread 2.3.5 firmware, the problem resolved automatically and vibration notification are all working properly again. I still don't know what the problem was and if it was possible to fix it without flashing the firmware, but apparently that is one way to fix it.
I remember having the same issue on 2.2 with my phone too. I ended up downing a different gmail app that had a better vibration setting. But yah now with gingerbread that app wasnt needed anymore.
I guess I'm the odd one, I had no problems until I updated to the 2.3.5
Anyone know where to disable these notifications?
I would still like to see the cards in Google now.. But I don't want these notifications.. Never had them appear before...
Thanks guys!
Sent from my SM-G920F
I would also like to know this. I've had the card notifications disabled for months and just this past week they've been showing up. The option for notifications is still disabled in settings.
I don't want to have to block notifications from the whole app because that would block reminders too right?
This must have to do with an update from Google.
I'm experiencing this as well - seems like it just started a week ago when there was an update. It's extremely frustrating not to be able to disable the notifications of spam (stories, articles, recipes, totally random stuff) and leave things like reminders and whatnot. **sigh** Google why did you do this to me? I really do not need a notification that there is a Chipotle three miles away from me.

But seriously....These notifications are annoying .. can't find where to disable...

I'm also getting annoyed by these notifications. I guess we don't have a way to shut them off yet?
Go to...Google now> settings> now cards> show notifications! Turn it off, still will get cards in Google now.

Me too -- the first thing I did was check the notification settings for Google Now via Google Settings. I've even tried turning notifications on and then turning them back off. But they keep showing up. Maybe it's a bug and not an intentional feature.
Maybe it's buggy Google since they seemed to have messed up ok Google. I don't get any notifications with that setting off, tried on two phones.

Me three. Ugh!
Don't you hate when the functionality of something changes and they don't default it to the setup that you had before the change?
Surely, when this was released they should give you the option of enabling or staying with what you had?
Of course, that would be the professional way of doing things, sad that it doesn't exist at Google.
Since I purchased the S8+, I've been getting random vibrations when it's in my pocket or when it's in my hand (when muted), and random notification sounds (when not muted). It's up to date, notification reminder and smart alert are both off. I've read that other people are experiencing the same problem but no solution has been found.

Ya I've gotten a few random vibrations too
Sent from my SM-G955U using XDA-Developers Legacy app
No sounds here but definitely vibrations at least once a day randomly..
I wonder what it is..
I get them too, I think it might be something to do with the weather app/widget updating
That's been driving me crazy I'll pick up my phone and it'll vibrate for who knows what reason.
I disabled my weather app and widget, but everything is still the same. This is very frustrating, I hope Samsung fixes it ASAP.
I can confirm this problem. Random vibrations. Sound on, vibration on. I thought was only my phone. Exynox version
Is NFC on and it's getting close to what it thinks is a tag? Is it in a case with your bank cards in?

Nope, NFC is off and it's not close to any credit card or NFC device. I'm clueless.
I believe it's a bug with the fingerprint sensor.
Had this on my other phone. It was yahoo mail app.
It would go off whrn i git emails from people i repy to or updates on orders.
Took a while to find it
My wife also had this problem but tyrn out to be another app.
I have the same issue too.
More times a day i feel single short vibrations, but without any notification.
I tried to ask samsung customer care, but they do not know the problem.
They told me to try using the phone in safe mode to see if the problem was gone.
So to understand if it was a phone problem or of a third party application.

Phantom vibrations, look it up.
Do i have to look for phantom vibrations?
I did, but i can't find any solution
This is Dave4777, I just spent over an hour on the phone with AT&T and Samsung turned off almost every app I have that has a Notifier except the ones that I want which make a different notification than my default one period and I'm still getting the random sounds and vibration together or if it's muted I get vibration only. Random no idea why neither does Samsung have any clue. Very frustrating especially for such a high end phone
Figured out what it was on my s8+. My notification reminder was on. I assume the weather app triggered it. Turning it off fixed the issue.
SOLUTION:
Settings>accessibility>notification reminder>off
S8 random notification sound SOLVED!
In notifications settings i switched off notification reminder. The sound is gone by me.Try that
It's either NFC, the finger printer scanner, GPS location services or the commonly forgotten S-Pen (is it loose or missing?)
Go to settings menu, then accessibility, then turn off notification reminder.
Hi all. In this Video the reviewer states that he isn't getting any notifications with the screen off. Also it is a problem for one of our members. Is anyone else having these hassles? Do you get incoming text, email AUDIO notifications without waking the phone?
Hi
I have no issue with notification at all..
Even when screen is off ..
U do have to active notification from each app setting and alow all permissins...
Also keep in maind to keep app running remove battery restriction from app setting also..
All will work normal
Working for me but I did need to grant WhatsApp and Trurcaller lots of permissions.
I even got True Edge installed for a visual way to get notified and that works brilliantly with the device asleep with screen off.
I was a bit surprised at the extra level of permissions needed. It's all gravy now, but I could see why a reviewer or somebody unaware would get caught out
But yes, I am getting notifications with the screen off in sound and visually, without having to wake the phone.
Indeed at first I wasn't getting any notifications but then I discovered you need to go into the app info and give permission for notifications and turn off battery saver.. now it works perfect and only for the apps I want
The video the OP posted is exactly whats happening to me. I have all the settings as described. Battery saver turned off and even when into each apps settings and allowed ALL permissions just to see if it would work. As the video says, notifications come, but you have to wake the device to see them, there is no sound or anything on screen until the device is woke. Exactly as the video describes. I do hope its fixed soon, I am back to using my Note 5 whilst my beautiful 10 Ultra sits in its box.

Have you undone your earlier modifications to the phone (copying files from phone to phone etc)?
You have two problems and the one to ignore for now is louder notifications. It's notifications at all.
It isn't something to fix from Xiaomi's view and it is always worth learning the software. I don't like it myself... It can be cloying etc.
But the default behaviour is to opt in to notifications. It's working as intended. That said look where we are, it's just your problems are a special case. No biggie, let's fix this!
You have an outstanding issue clouding this where you are trying to use unexplained files on the device (like seriously what format are they? Does it work in Music or anything? Have you tried removing them?)
Took a while but I get all my notifications now when screen is off, see 2vattached screen shots
Thanks all for answering my question! I think this is my last question before buying from Liaow.com, if the syncing isn't a constant problem. Does anyone have a major syncing problem as explained in this review? Once or twice a day I can deal with. I check the calendar throughout the day like most people. However if I get busy and forget, missing calendar events/alarms wouldn't work for me. I'd be forced to use my work iPhone<shudder> for calendar events lol.

How did you get the icons to show on the lock screen?
Mine doesn't. Quite annoying.
Also sometimes the lockscreen doesn't show me notifications even tho they are there.. :s
I have no issues with icons displaying while locked. You do need to enable them and ensure they start automatically and power control is turned off for the app. It has been much easier in the EU ROM for some reason.
Solution!
Here is the thing that helped me with the same notification issue! Just google "xiaomi mi 10 ultra notifications" and in the top 5 links you'll probably find an article from: theunpopulartraveller. It explains the settings, and they need to be accessed by pressing and holding the app icon ^ app info.
Don't give up, try and you'll get the sounds from needed apps back. And ye, actually now I find the way Xiaomi did it much more convenient: I just turned on notifications for 2 apps, and all the rest are silent, while previously I had to turn off all the rest of the apps (much more than 2, definitely) not to get disturbed by all the bull****.
EU Rom doesn't have the "importance" option at 30/31
Well after trying to update to 12.1.1 and seeing what a buggy heap of junk it was, I factory reset, installed 12.0.15, and formatted data. But now notifications don't work when the screen is off whatsoever, absolutely no notifications. Beautiful. I'm so sick of the software issues with this phone, I'm definitely never buying another Xiaomi phone at this point.

Disable adaptive notifications from setting. I dont know what google thinking when creating such feature.
it basically interrupt the whole notification process. Using so called Ai to decide, when to give you notifications or when not to. But most of the time it pick wrong decision and delay our notification altogether.
This is android feature since Q thus also causing problem on Pixel phone. On xiaomi seems like it suddenly got worse on Android 11

How did u manage to roll back to 12.0.15?
Get over to the EU ROM version. Lock screen notifications work fine.
Have you checked each notification that it has no battery optimisation set, also, check in notifications that each one has access to the lock screen. Since A11, notifications have been a pain but for some reason they do work much better on the EU ROM.

There are issues for Gpay and some banking / local safetynet apps for EU ROM which i do not wish to live with.
Somehow the props file in the eu rom causes those issues.
i am probably going to rollback to 12.0.15... now is the excruciating 160 hours wait for unlock.
You obviously don't follow the EU forums. GPay works, safeynet works and my UK bank works. But you also get everything plus more than the Chinese stock and all updates are based on both weekly and stable stock ROMs respectively.

i don't follow it to the tee, but i've seen some reports of some users not able to use gpay out of the stable roms.
that's why.. too much trouble.. i'll see what i can do when the unlock timer is up..
