Hi.
Here's the situation: I'm using 3VO rom build 2.00.
My phone works as it should when in Vibrate mode. When I change it to Normal mode, the vibrate icon in the top bar is still present. When I get a call or a message, the phone is still vibrating and it doesn't ring. I've tried to reset profiles to default, I've tried changing the ring type of a certain profile (its set to Ring, I've changed it to Ring and vibrate and then back, same situation).
I've tried switching on the vibrate mode with a key (on my model this means tab/#/vibrate key), and the vibrating icon is still there.
When my profile is set to Normal, I get a sound when i send a SMS.
What else can I tell you? Oh, I've also tried a reboot, same situation.
It worked fine for a month with this new rom, now it's not working... And it bothers me sometimes because I cannot hear when someone calls me, it's just vibrating (same with the Outdoor or Automatic mode).
So can someone please advise? I've used search on the forum and google and couldn't find a similar description of the problem.
Thank you so much in advance!
change ringtone sound to something other than vibrate
the default ringtone i believe was vibrate. change the ringtone to something else in the sound settings. if not reflash the rom works well for most everyone else.
soclean, you are my saviour!
Indeed, I had to change the "Ring tone" setting under Start/Settings/Sounds (it was set to Vibrate).
Thank you man.
no problem. happy to hear i was a help and it wasnt something else wrong with the phone.
Just checking to see if there is any development. There a thread asking about it once a year, with 2 or 3 people saying they'd like that too, so I thought I'd start this years.
So: Is there any kind of registry-hack that allows you to change the vibrate style, intensity, duration and so on?
What I am personally trying to achieve is this:
Instead of having the phone either Vibrate shortly and than ring without vibrating or ring while vibrating continuously at full throttle, I would like my phone to Ring while giving short vibrate bursts every 5 seconds or so. Preferably the intensity of the vibrate could be set for different loudness levels of the ringing.
But I am guessing there is still no way of influencing this, so thx for reading. See you next year ;-)

Wow, that actually might work. I came across these codes before, but explained in much less detail and it sounded like you could only remove or add vibrate, LED flashing etc... not actually program durations and wait times.
I will give it a go. If I got all the options right, this is exactly what I needed.
Thank you very, very much!!!
PS: Damnit, now I see myself changing values, reseting, calling myself, reevaluating, changing values, reseting, calling myself etc etc all through the night lol
EDIT: Ok, falls a bit short of what I wanted to achieve, but still gives me alot more control than before. So still, huge thx.
Unfortunately there still seems no way to influence the intensity of the vibrate and unfortunately once you set the command to play the ringtone, the next command wont be executed until the ringtone finishes. So setting up soft Vibrate, start ringtone, hard vibrate every 5 seconds (as would be my prefered setting) wont work.
I checked it a lot of times, even tested it, and now I've found the root of the problems. My phone does not make a sound in loud mode. It does not make a sound when the alarm goes off, only vibrating. It does not make a sound, only vibrating, when getting messages, e-mails etc. Even when I am being called, the phone just vibrates, but does not play the ringtone, but the phone is in loud mode :S I did not tweak around with the phone, it is on full stuck, i has been working for 1,5 months, it started doing this last week. However, the speaker is working, it's not a hardware related problem, it must be something with the stock software.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Did you download another volume control app, it could be interfering with the settings you put your phone at.
Also did you try a hard reset?

Yes, I did download an alarm app after I found out that the built in is not making any sound, therefore does not wake me up. I don't want to do a hard reset yet.

Make a back up and then do a hard reset, if it doesn't fix it then you can restore the backup.

at some point of the day i noticed my notification sound no longer working.
I got all the msgs on my notification but with out sound.
turning off and on didnt fix. only the battery pull worked.
it happened like every once a day. some times I have to do battery pull twice a day.
I had this phone for a wk now.
anyone having notification sound issue?
even the turn off screen and on sound muted.
There's a few bugs, nougat is brand new, they'll fix things. My headphone kept buzzing one time until a restart
Its not just you. And I don't think its exactly something to do with Android 7.0
If you look at how your audio menu is when you change the ringer volume, you'll see that when the phone is set to vibrate, it actually MUTES the other two sliders.. it doesn't set them to vibrate. With that in mind, it seems more likely LG has a bug, than Android 7.0 having a bug.
Having this problem as well with my H910 (AT&T). It's very frustrating indeed. What's even worse is that it seems sporadic in nature, sometimes I will get a notification chime, sometimes I won't. As skyedream said, a battery pull is the only way to get consistent notification sounds, if only temporarily.
I think I get this too. Often I pull my phone out of pocket to find I had a text that I never heard.

I had this problem too yesterday where it was just frozen. Did a restart and all seemed ok after. First time that happened.
This happens to me as well. Also, I will get double notification sounds at times. Like an echo. Or, a different sound mixed with my selected sound. A reboot fixes. Have to do it a couple times a day. Very annoying.
No sound for notifications + no web video playback
I also have same issue with notifications. No pattern on what causes this, but a reboot gets rid of this (just for sometime! and the problem is back). I have also noticed apps not working smoothly and unable to play web videos including from Youtube app and Facebook App. Overall, tad disappointed with the software quality on this set.
Phone notification vibrate shuts off all other notification sounds

Good call, thanks! I also notice that even though I have Sound Settings-Volume-Touch & Feedback sounds Off, I still get haptic feedback vibration on keyboard while typing this reply to you. It goes away when I go into Sound Settings-Vibration Strength, & turn slider off for Vibrate on tap. The Settings software isn't connecting the overall Volume Profile with the Vibrate Strength settings it seems. I don't know enough to know whether this is Android or LG. Under Vibrate Strength you can control notifications too, though haven't yet tested. Hope this helps til it gets fixed.

I just tested texting...even though on quick settings slider notifications for text are grayed out, while call setting show vibrate only, in the full settings menu, under Vibrate Strength, you can slide the vibration strength up...I did this, sent myself a text, and phone vibrated the notification. I think it's messed up that I can't shut my call notification off completely, including nvibrate quickly with volume key or quick settings. Have to go into full settings menu sound & select silent. Please fix this Android/LG.

Ya, I have the exact same problem... (I have a H990DS)
I can't seem to even fix it with a reboot.
I have emailed LG about the problem - we'll see what they say...

I experience the same as you. I usually clear regents and then hit restart and all my notification sounds come back and videos. I'm just wondering, are you using any type of ad blocker? I use the ad block browser and I've noticed that whenever I open my browser, that's when my notifications get muted.
Issue resolved after update
Hi, looks like this issue is resolved with the update I got in January 2017 end. But not sure what caused it to fail in first place. But as of now, all is well after the update. Cheers!
I still have this problem over here on T-Mobile. Very annoying.
Anyone ever find a fix? Having these issues on a new LG V20 US Unlocked connected to Verizon.
Bumping this to see if anyone has found a solution to this. My V10 started muting notifications when the ringer volume was set to vibrate on one of its later updates. I figured it was a glitch in my phone since I didn't see anyone else complaining about it. This was one of the reasons i decided to upgrade to a V20. I was pretty surprised that it did the exact same thing and it's apparently by design. Who in their right mind would think this was a good idea?
I'm not sure of the cause, but I had many calendar reminder alarms fail to sound over several days when I got this V20. I tried different calendar apps and ended up with one called aCalendar. It works OK most of the time, but there is still a serious issue. If ANY other kind of notification happens to sound right when a calendar alarm needs to sound, the calendar will NEVER sound its reminder notification for the alarm. I've had this happen several times with incoming text or social networking message notifications. I hear those, and then the subsequent alarm that should have sounded concurrently is silent. I've had to set 2 reminders for the same important event, spaced 10 minutes apart, to try to reduce the odds of this issue hijacking an important notification. I've not seen this exact problem ever before on any Android device. My US Unlocked V20 is 100% stock. No idea what to do about it. But from what I can glean online, neither LG nor Verizon plan to push any future updates on the V20, so we're stuck.
For contact selecting unique notification tones that actually stopped working
I got this LG v20 and I loved it...still do....but... how do I keep certain text notification tones thst i select to not change back to default?...on its own? Crazy. I use zedge ap to download ringtones n notification tones. Maybe there is an issue there?
@Dkb123,
If you could please add some punctuation to your post, it might be easier to read so someone can understand your problem and help you .
I am using a rooted HTC One m10 with Viper ROM and am having the same problem. Echos notification noises, turns off alarm and notification sounds, and it is beyond annoying. I have already had to reset it twice to try to fix it and nothing has worked. I have no idea what is causing it but when I try to open my alarm app it says it was disabled and could have been caused by a system time change (which didnt happen) or battery saving (where I have it whitelisted). I will try disabling my ad-blocker. I'm not sure how those things could be connected but since it was suggested I will give it a go. I am consulting all of the developers I know about this but so far nobody has an answer. I am kind of starting to freak out because I need my phone to work. I have 3 kids under the age of 6 in school and need to know when someone has to get in touch with me. Before the last reset, I also saw that when my notification was disabled and I went back in to reenable it, it had been switched back to the sound I had selected the time before that. One more note. When I go in to check my notification noises, all of them, my ringer, notifications, and alarm, are all blank for about one half second before they repopulate and then show the correct tones. If it were as simple as it being my ROM someone would have posted it on the thread because it is a pretty big problem to have gone unnoticed. Is it possible we are all running an app or have a shared setting that is causing this to happen to only us. I had to dig pretty hard to find this thread in the first place. It might help if we posted a list of our apps, what do you guys think?

Hi. You posted this in the wrong area. This is for the LG V20. Try searching the HTC One M10 area for a solution. Someone there might be able to help you.
Hey all--
I've been unsuccessfully trying to troubleshoot this for a week or two to no avail, so I thought I'd reach out.
My phone ringtone no longer plays when I receive phone calls. Volume is up, no DoNotDisturb or silence settings on, and EVERY OTHER SOUND works just fine (e.g. app notifications, music/video, etc). If I go to my ringtone settings and try to select ANY option, NO audio plays for anything. However, I DO hear audio when trying to choose a new notification sound. Just nothing on the ringtone.
I acknowledge it may be due to some app I've installed recently, but I can't seem to trace it back to any one in particular. Next step is a full reset, which I'd prefer not to do... Anyone experienced this?

I've dealt with a few ringtone-related issues in the past, but not a prolonged one like you are describing.
Try this:
1. Clear all recent (open) Apps using the recent Apps button.
2. reboot: turn your phone off, and back on
3. do the Apps drawer>Device Help>Fix>Hardware Test>Speaker Test (even if you hear it, answer " no" and leave it marked as if the hardware test failed, continue to operate your phone full-time with this marked as fail)
4. Go to select your ringtone, tap once on desired ringtone and give it about 3 seconds, then tap a second time on same ringtone and it should play at normal volume. Press ok. ringtone should be working...If not, reboot phone and try #3. speaker test again.
DUDE. I don't really understand how, but that totally worked (first time on step 4, too)! You are a scholar and a gentleman, and I send you many real (and one digital) thanks. ???
