Silent notifications - Vibrant General

This has happened to me three times now, and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced it, or knows a fix. Basically what happens is, none of my notifications play their sounds, even though my phone is not set to silent, and my notification volume is set to max.

just noticed this happening to me today.....strange...

Same here, I noticed it a couple days ago. I have the following mods: Stock Lock Screen, LP, Beautiful Widgets, Root. I've gone into settings and tried selecting and deselecting Silent Mode and nothing changes. I can reboot the phone and the notification sounds come back. The BW Silent Widget is the culprit. All other ways act normal.

Stock Alarm Clock Issues

Just recently got the Shift and so far its a big nice upgrade from the hero.
I don't currently have root access and am pretty much running stock everything, with the exception of Launcher Pro and some custom icons.
The issue I am running into is that occasionally my alarm clock goes off w/o the option to snooze or dismiss.
The only way to remedy this is to yank the battery... (at least thats how I deal with it at 6:am and I want to snooze)
Anyone else have this problem or know of a way to fix it?
Thanks.
I had the problem show up a few times on my Hero before the official 2.1 release, but I don't remember if anything I tried fixed it. Just letting you know it's not just you.
I know the alarm clock snooze/dismiss settings are tied to HTC Sense. Maybe launcher pro is messing with Sense somehow.
I think the controls to dismiss or snooze the alarm are tied to the lock screen. I don't use launcher pro, but I wonder, does launcher pro replace the stock lock screen?
Ive had similar problems...im stock rooted and still using sense and occasionally have this problem...i usually use audio manager widget to lower the volume so its not driving me crazy and then set a new alarm for like a min later...when the snooze/dismiss options appear for the new alarm i hit dismiss and all the alarms stop
Why not install DeskClock.apk?

No, it doesn't.

That's the same way I've been solving it Seems that if I turn off the phone (Kyocera Zio 2.2) whilst having an app on screen (ie turn it off from within an app or fxn) the incidence is quite high. If turned off from home screen, doesn't occur (or at least not very often - can't quite be sure, but 95% certainty) Just wanted to make someone aware of it. Glad to see it wasn't just me who noticed it. Having to take the case off, battery out, et al are annoying, and just seems a goofy fix for what is generally a nice piece of equipment! Someone else (Hero user?) is changing their vol setting and then setting another alarm for a min later to have the shut-off option appear. I may try that in the future. THANK YOU for the site!!

Converted from Iphone, need advice..

I have always used android except for the past 1.5 years. Obviously alot has changed and now I am back with the nexus 4. I have to admit it seems much more polished since the htc evo days.
So I need some advice and pointers..
I received the phone last night, I spent the rest of the evening rooting it. I am now running faux's kernel
as well AOKP's Rom
Here is what I am missing imo..
When I put the phone in silent mode, it does not vibrate, to overcome it I installed Silent Mode Jammer from the app store. Just hoping I am missing a setting though.
On the iphone, it was jailbroken and I installed this app called f.lux which at a certain time, would alter the screen so I could view it in the dark without it lighting up an entire room. Also gave it a different colour hue.
Finally, the lockscreen. I would love to have more than a clock on the screen. Ideally, the weather, 5day maybe... my calendar and then any alerts.
Any advice or pointers? Thanks and glad to be back..
Welcome back to the droids
For your lockscreen questionslide from left to right in the lock screen until a "plus" appears push it and you can choose from 5 Stock widgets aviable (at least in stock rom but i dont think aokp removed this fetuare)

Welcome back. I also jumped ship from Android to the iPhone 5 for a couple weeks, then back to the N4. The N4 is my favorite phone by far.
You need to make sure you have "always vibrate" checked under settings for phone, messaging, and email. Then, when the phone is in vibrate mode it will actually vibrate when you get a call, text, or email.
as for the lockscreen, each widget goes on its own page, can you combine them so that they look like:
Clock
Weather
Agenda
Alerts
thanks

Getting two notification tones when I get a text?

This is confusing, using either the stock app or a different messaging app if the notification sound is different than the default. Such as the default notification sound is Whisper but I set in the SMS app to be Good News. If the screen is off it plays Whisper THEN Good news back to back. But if the screen is on it doesn't do that.. I rebooted and it stopped but then came back. wtf
This only seems to happen if the screen is OFF if the screen is ON it doesn't happen..
Edit: I think i found the issue. Device -> Accessibility -> Notification Reminders - Had this on but only to alert after 10min but it seems to be bugged and causes two alerts at the same time.

[Q] Alarm Snoozes Itself

I have the Verizon LG G2. Not rooted all stock launcher etc.
I use the stock alarm clock app and for the last two days, it has been snoozing itself. I'll wake up without the alarm and it says, "snoozed until". That is what it says when you manually snooze it.
I did some testing this morning, and actually found it snoozing itself, screenshot attached.
I download a different alarm app and that one works just fine. I have looked through other posts regarding this but none are recent or in regards to the G2. If there is a solution that I am not seeing, let me know.
I have tried clearing app data and it still snoozes on its own.
Any help would be appreciated.
Now it is snoozing only the first attempt. The second, 5 min later, alarm is going off..
Bump

Go into alarm settings and if you flip action or shake action enabled. If so then that's prob the culprit.

Thanks for your help.
I looked into settings of the app, and there aren't any activated around flip or shake. However, there are a few around the back buttons (LG G2). Even still, I disabled those and it is still functioning this way. I downloaded an alarm clock app from Play Store and it works just fine.
Wondering if even trying to figure out what is going on is worth my time or effort.

S8 Phantom notifications

When I have a default notification sound set in my S8, I get a ton of notification sounds, but nothing in the notification bar. It's extremely annoying. I turned off all the app notifications I could, but it didn't help.
I also tried Do Not Disturb with custom exceptions so I would only get notifications for the apps I want, but they are still silent.
Is there a third party app that will mimic what Samsung's DND is supposed to be doing or a way to shut off the phantom notifications?
I'm really starting to hate this phone. For several reasons.
Suggestions
Hello,
I have not had the same issue as you but I've definitely had problems with things syncing on time or out of order. I'm sure you already have, but be sure to dig deep into phone notification settings but individual app settings as well to see if anything is off. If you run the internal app closer, does the issue still occur? Worst case scenario, you could factory reset your phone and see if that corrects the issue.
