Hi there!
This is a topic that really makes me crazy
I found a thread here that showed how to disable the Start Call Beep...but it didn't work for me...I couldn't find the reg. key on my Trin.
So what beep do I mean exactly? The painfully loud one when you engange in a call, or switch to call history and so on.... Hope you know what I mean...out of lack for a better word I called it "System Beep".
Hope you can help killing this for me!
btw. I use WM 6 with Mary 3.6
thx!!
Same problem here...
I also have same problem, really irritating beep. Please do post if you find solution for this..
Same for me I hate that bip when I press the green or red button
Whenever I put my g1 on vibrate and then get a text the phone doesn't vibrate. is this happening to anybody else
I am getting this issue to, but it is intermittent. I am also having an issue with different ring tones playing. Every call rings a different ring tone, even from the same person. It is very strange!
open messenging --> menu --> setting --> tick vibrate
text message do not share the same setting in ringtone
Try to install rings extended in marketplace and set again~

just wondering are you in a text message when it does this? I noticed that it doesn't tell me I have a new text message from the same person if I am on the thread screen of their text messages... if that makes sense

If you are in the conversation screen with "sammy" it wont notify you unless you back out of it and you're in a different area, window.
It makes sense to me why they do it.
I don't like that feature though.

Yea thats what I was trying to say LOL... I agree I wish we could disable the feature... but then again just turning on the screen seems to work now that the app is out.
I recieved two OTA updates, the first one fixed this issue for me.
The noise goes off, but the notification clears and the light doesn't blink still. Oh well, it's progress at least.
mine will stop in the middle of the day, just pull the battery out and place it back in, and it will work again
updating to the RC30 update, mine is fixed, now they do

I got rc30 and it still happens to me from time to time, not much like it used to.
I have RC30 and I still have this issue. Hopefully they work this out because im a heavy texter.
Hi I just registered with this site to see if I can help you. I had this problem all day tday n couldn't get a fix. I tried everythin except hard reset which I wasn't wiilling to do. My vibrate now works, what I did was this. I have the 'timed profiles' app, I timed it to make silent go off in 1 minute n then my sms vibrate function started working agen. This is a big problem with the g1 but this fixed it for me hopefully permanently! Hope it helps
Hey guys little problem driving me nuts, what is this notification of?
Can't seem to figure it out.
sorry had to upload the screenshot as an attachment as im at work and proxy wont let me upload it anywhere.
It means "you have multiple notifications that won't all fit on this line, so we are hiding them and just putting a number up here instead."
what ones though, no missed calls, no unread sms cant figure out where they are
lol Try to slide the curtain down and see what are those notification
Most of them are written there. And you can discard them all from the curtain view
nothing listed there,
I have found the culprit though, gentle alarm i turned off the notification and it vanished, oddly though that number goes from 3-4 for no reason at all.
very odd!
Thanks for all your help guys ill let you know if it comes back now gentle alarm has been fixed.
Just a quick video I threw together.. works well on the Epic!

Ha didnt know that trick but it did work
thanks. very hot.
Thanks! I love these little hidden gems.
Another thing I found by accident is in the stock messaging app if you scroll to the left it will call that person and to the right will enter message. Another stupid but rarely usefull feature.lol
Is there any method to turn off Google Maps notifications for Drive mode? While in Walking (or maybe even Bike mode) the notifications can be useful. Yet, when driving (especially for multiple hours), and having a phone as your main navigation the notification on the wrist are pretty annoying and also consuming the battery quite fast.
I know I can kill all notifications coming from Google Map in Android Wear app on the phone, but that would need me to re-enable it for every new Walk/Bike navigation, so that do not really solve my issue. Any ideas?
I really like it while walking in the city but while driving I just mute all notifications on the watch (Swipe down from top). I found it distracting otherwise.

Maybe this is simple answer. Given the fact that during the driving you have the screen in front of you anyway, why would you need notifications on the wrirst?
On the other hand it needs to remember to switch it off while you start driving (easy, you can do it once first uneeded GM notification pop-up), and, to switch it back on after arriving. And the latter one is more problematic. When I silence down my phone (i.e. due to meeting attendance) I often forgot re-enable sound after it. Same case, as here.
Seems Google needs to address it in upcoming Google Maps updates.
I agree. Very annoying to be driving and looking at your screen whole your wrist constantly vibrates.
