[Q] Setting to hear notifications while on a call? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Apologies for this simple question, as I have tried searching everywhere.. While on a call, I don't hear when texts come in using the stock messaging app and also Whatsapp.. Am I missing a setting somewhere?

This is a good question as my girlfriend just yelled at me beside I didn't answer or call her back. Didn't hear the call or text while I was on the phone.

Good question.....

Anyone? This is my first Nexus device, so I honestly have no idea..

Why would they put that in the first place? It would interrupt the call, If you want you could just check your notifications afterwards.

Well, every smartphone I've previously used (including the att Galaxy S2) would sound off a notification and that way it was easy to check if the message was important and place the phone on speaker while responding.. Our phones can multitask for a reason..
But it's always been available as an option on my previous phones that could easily be disabled for those who prefer no interruptions.

there is call waiting. just go to the dialer and hit setting on the bottom right and then scroll down to additional settings. as for text im not sure.

Expandable notifications

Has anyone else noticed this?
On my previous phone, I would get the regular notifications and could choose whether I expanded them or not. With the Nexus 4, all my notifications seem to come pre-expanded. Is there anyway to disable this feature?

When you have 1 notification it expands when you have multiple it comes unexpanded. ie you get 1 text its expanded, you get a text and an email and downloaded an app, its not expanded.

Is there an option menu where I can turn that off? I prefer not to have the notifications automatically expand, even if it's only the first one

Does anyone know if there is a way to stop notifications from automatically expanding?
I don't think there's a way that you can. You would have to ask a Developer to code that for you in a custom ROM.

No, as of right now it is not possible.

Home after calls

I was wondering if there is a way that when you hang up from a call you press end and you go to home screen instead of being directed to call log. Can we modify some files or something of the like. I'm sure some people want to be directed there but I for one just want to return home with ONE BUTTON PRESS. Thanks for any feedback no flaming allowed.

I use Not Call Log, and it works well. (I have no idea why Google thought the original behavior was a good idea.)
Perfect just what I was looking for.

Persistent notifications?

Is there anyway to get persistent notifications? I am using jellybro and my wife is still stock. Neither ROM seems to support the feature.
I want my phone to beep every few minutes to remind me of missed calls and text messages.

Exactly! You are the man! Don't understand why such a basic feature was removed from android. Doesn't seem like I should need an app for this. Thanks a million!

the speaking 'answer' out loud feature isn't working for me..
it's turned on in my s voice, and features like 'cheese' to take a picture ARE working.. so what gives?

do you mean when you ask "s-voice" the answer is not spoken?
try to hit the little face next to the mic, this will activate voice prompt.

Different issue but sort of related, for me the alarm snooze doesn't work. I tell it "snooze" but it keeps going. Maybe it knows I'm still half asleep

Why yes I do....seeing how I was just clearing up what was being discussed as people were confused and how I don't actually use s-voice I figured why turn on the option just for a screen shot.

A simple factory reset is able to solve your problem. But having stock recovery and all, all data will be lost though. So better make a backup of what's inside the sd card.
