I have had a Nexus S 4G for a while and I'm getting a lot of notification noises whenever the 4G signal is lost or acquired and just getting random notification noises overall. Is there a way to turn these sounds off on the stock ROM or is there a ROM that allows control over all notification sounds? It seems like the stock ROM only allows one notification noise for everything pretty much.
Have you tried going into each individual app and check everywhere in your settings app? For each app and section (most) there should be a place to check/uncheck notification sounds. You could also try a market search for something relevant :\?

I'm using 6.2 rooted with gtalk, I get notifications but no sound. I tried setting up sound settings, but it always goes back to off (the slider for notifications going all the way low).
Anyone else having this issue?
Also on the top right it shows the sound icon with an "x" on it, meaning its on silent. When I play videos or games the sound is perfectly fine, just with notifications in having this issue.
There is this topic already existing. Try to search and find it.

Hey everyone,
Just getting my note 10.1 setup and so far im loving it. Its my first tablet and the fact it has a stylus finally made having a tablet more practical for me. One thing I am not a fan of is that when I have the sound turned down to the lowest setting it is too loud. Is there any built in eq that I can use to scale the sound?
So far im using a downloaded app "Music Volume EQ" which is working but needs to be running and then it takes up space in my notifications bar which I really dont like.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

I don't know about this specific app, but most apps do have an option to disable notification entries in settings. I was fed up with the Skype app persistently displaying my online status in the notification tray until I noticed an option to disable it in the app's preferences.
'might wanna try looking for it there.
I got a 6P a few days ago, after getting a Galaxy Tab S2 a few weeks ago. These are my first Android devices and I'm still figuring things out.
One of the things that I'm kinda frustrated about is notifications. I'm used to iOS where I can control all notification settings for all apps in one spot (banners, sounds, lock screen, notification center, etc). Unless I'm missing something, it seems like Android notifications are controlled individually in each app, and the granularity of control you have over what type of notifications it produces is at the mercy of whatever settings the developer decided to implement. Is this an accurate assessment? And yes I'm aware of the Notifications area in Settings that allowed to control peeking and sensitivity.
Specifically, I have an app (Flickr) that I want to get lock screen notifications for, but it makes a sound for each notification - which I absolutely do not want. There is only one setting in the app - Notifications enabled or disabled. Is there somewhere else I can go to configure it to retain a lock screen notification but disable sound? Or am I just stuck with whatever the app allows me to do?
You are correct. And feel on the app you may find you have no control over the type and frequency of those alerts.
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.

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.
Hi! I was wondering, is there any way to turn off the sound on notifications for all apps (like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube etc) but still have the phone ring when someone calls me? I have either WiFi or data on all the time, and I get lots of notifications that aren't that urgent. I would like those to vibrate, but have the phone ring, since usually calls are more important than a YouTube video notification, for example. I couldn't find any way to do so in the settings nor did I find a third party app to help with my request. Any advice would be much appreciated
I would say that the most easy way is to create a sound file with total silence and use it as the default notification sound. Some apps have separate notification settings, you might need to disable sound (or select the same "silent sound") in the app itself.
If you want more customization options, autonotification app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joaomgcd.autonotification&hl=en) is your friend
If you just long press it in the notification bar when it arrives you can set up exactly the type of notification you want from that app, it does not take log and as time goes by you get less and less, some you might want a special sound others vibrate, some show in status bar others not, its custom for each app.
