anyone having problems with the phone not vibrating when receiving notifications like sms, gmail, whatsapp etc?
i have vibration set to 'always' under sound settings and also in the individual apps but the phone only vibrates for incoming calls only...
have you checked the notification settings in the apps your using? they are separate from the main sound setting i think.

Hey guys, i don't like have one notification noise for ALL my notifications. now i can't tell the difference between emails, sms etc. i looked under settings but it only allows you to set one sound over all. is there any way to get individual sounds for individual events?
Each one of those have a settings tab. You can change them idependently. IE: Open Messages and go to settings, Notifications and change it. Same with gmail and exchange.
okay so under setting - notification sounds - you can only set your default notifications sounds which i guess is one sound for all type of notifications, emailes txt and so forth. I of course want different sounds for individual notifications. When i go to my email and change the notification sound of my email under its own settings it keeps reverting back to the default sound under the phone settings. Any way to by pass this? please help
The volume control and vibration control on this phone is much less customizable than I would like.
Vibration mode turns everything to vibrate, but I get vibration notifications for emails as well as text and everything else. I would like it just to vibrate for ringtones and text if possible.
On my old phone I was able to turn off vibration for notifications and leave my gosms to do the vibration for the text, but it seems like there is no way to turn off vibration for notifications and leave it on for ringtone on this phone.
Has anyone found a way to turn the vibration for notifications OFF in vibration mode? While still leaving vibration ON for ringtones?
Any help would be great.
Thanks

settings>sound> go to the samsung applications section, you can adjust everything individually there... call, messages, email, calander
Yeah try this man like what evil posted settings>sound> go to the samsung applications section, you can adjust everything individually there... call, messages, email, calander
does this allow me to have diff settings for different profiles? I want the sound off for everything but vibrate on for everything but only when set to VIBRATE mode, but when I change to Sound mode, I dont want any notification to vibrate and I want sounds to play for everything, can I do that without having to go into each individualapp setting and changing it?

I tried this but it still vibrates when I receive an email. I'm using Gmail and have the setting for vibrate off in the Gmail app. Does anyone know a secondary app that can control all the notifications other than light flow? I'd even use something like that to fix it. I just want it to vibrate for phone calls when in vibrate mode. Have you guys been able to turn off other vibrations with the method suggested?
Samsung Galaxy S5 now has the interruptions feature... I find it's not what I need or at least I am not sure how to get it to work the way I want.
I want to receive ANY phone calls, and ANY SMS Texts.
I would just like to block email notifications at night. Is there an app or some setting that will help me do this? I need to get phone calls and texts for emergencies.
You can define in ACCOUNTS, SETTINGS, SYNC SETTINS, sync schedule as manual and define a peak schedule, where you can define the days, and the peak time (ex 8:00- 20:00) , and the frequency of sincronization(ex: push or 5 min).

There are three categories for Priority:
1. Events and reminders
2. Phone Calls
3. Messages
It's not clear on if messages are emails or texts/sms or both.

If you have Lollipop 5.0 will Settings > Sound & Display > Sound & Notification > Do Not Disturb work for what you want
You can set scheduling times for Do not disturb and allow exceptions to the Do not disturb like calls, SMS Alarms etc
I don't know personally as I don't use it but just a thought if you have not tried it
to clarify...

So messages are ONLY SMS and not email then?
I got my S8 today and so far I'm loving it! Is there anyway to turn vibrations off when you get a text or any other type of message? I have turned all vibration settings and sounds off in the settings menu but I still get a vibration on incoming messages. Thanks.

Many apps have their own notification mechanism over which you have no control. All of my local news apps vibrate, and what's worse, there's no setting to disable it. You'll have to check the notification configuration screen of your messaging apps.

Thanks for the reply, I have found that with some apps you can turn off the vibrations and with messages you will have to turn of all notification settings on the app itself to stop the remaining vibrations.
That's correct! It's similar with iPhones as well; some app developers just do their own things.
