Thats a very strange software issue... try factory reseting and if that dosnt fix it you might need a 3rd party texting app if you cant return it for a new one haha... this shouldnt happen a 3rd party messaging app to suggest would be (invi) Leme know what happens

Phone wont vibrate for text messages

I did a search of the forums and found 2 post without any solution to this problem. It started happening today to me and I've tried almost everything to make it work, i dont want to resort to a hard reset. Does anyone know how to solve this? My vibrate motors work fine as I just reverted back from an HTC Magic Port and my messages were vibrating perfectly fine.
Bump Still searching, found info that suggest a reboot removes this or setting the volume all the way down to silent then to vibrate would force it to fix itself. My G1 Still is not vibrating but the engine is perfectly fine because I keep testing it with a Magic Rom (H5.0.2).
Well, the obvious question is, have you gone into the messaging app and set it to vibrate?
Done all the sets already to properly troubleshoot the problem. Deleted any program having to do with calls and sms and still nothing.
Well then the only thing left is a factory reset. Once thats done make sure to go back into the messaging app and set it to vibrate.
If that doesnt fix it and you are running a rooted phone then reflash whatever firmware you are running.
An actual answer!
I had the same problem as you... i just got my phone yesterday, and I've been trying to get it to vibrate... and finally i found out how to! Go into messaging app (if a thread is open, click the MENU button press "more" then "all threads"); click the MENU button; press "settings"; at the very bottom of the list press "vibrate".

call screen bug?

Just wondering if this is an issue on all phones (rooted or stock)
scenario is as follows:
You're on a call..u receive an sms or want to check ur calendar or email for something relevant to the call etc
u click the home button and go to ur app.
question is; how in the hell do u get back to the existing call?
pressing the call button takes me back to the dialer/contacts/call log screen
there is a green phone icon in the notification bar but when u drag the bar down it is empty
holding the home key gives the call log button but goes to the dialer.
i have a rooted ph running CY 5.0.2
if this has already been posted i apologize. i did try a (quick) search
EDIT:
found this

A Hold icon appears in the Status bar to remind you that you have a call on hold. From any other application, you can open the Notifications panel and touch the entry for the call on hold to return to the current call screen.

however when i open the notification panel after navigating while a call is on hold (orange icon) or still active (green icon) the panel shows nothing

cant see notifications on lock screen

So I'm coming from a pixel where I would get my app notifications to wake and show on my lock screen. When I get an email for example, I get the sound and mynlight will blink but my screen doesn't wake up and show anything til I press the power button.
How can I get them to show without having to press the power button??
Yes, I'd like to know how to do this too! Any ideas anyone?
Currently, the best I can see is that my 'always on screen' will show a small icon to indicate there's a new notification (an email icon for example). Though it does not flash or light up. The icon just displays very discreetly so really you have to look for it. I then need to tap the home button, which reveals the 'pin entry screen'... on this screen I tap the 'back' arrow which displays the full notification. So its two tap to reveal notifications without unlocking the phone.
What I really want is to see notifications flash up on my lock screen before I choose to swipe open the app (using PIN etc). For that reason, face recognition also isn't great as the phone opens past the notifications screen the moment you look at it!
Have just moved from an iphone. currently this is the only real con, otherwise amazing upgrade!
Did anyone figure this out?

It isn't probably answering your question, but might help. I don't know if you have set a setting under: settings>display>navigation bar and then check out "unlock with home button", it will at least not require you to press power button, but just a home button. I just press home button and it shows my lock screen and any notifications I may have.
1) So when you set unlock with home button to ON, then your phone will go straight to home screen(if phone isn't locked with a code) when you press this home button.
2) If you turn off that feature, then, when you press home button, then your phone will show lock screen first regardless if your phone is locked or unlocked.
Hi,
I'd also like to have my s8 screen to wake upon receiving notifications (whatsapp messages, emails, etc).
I switch off the AOD feature and would love to see a preview of notifications when i receive them without having to reach out for my phone.
Coming from the iphone, I'm so used to just glance at it and see if its an important message or something that can wait. I find this feature very well executed.
The s8 requires me to manually turn on the screen.
Any info? I'm pretty sure its not hidden somewhere in Settings... Probably can't even do this without root or installing additional apps.
Thanks
I have found an easy solution. Simply download and install this app from the playstore.

I knew there was an app somewhere that will do this! Thank you!
Since the Oreo update I used a similar app called "Screen Notifications" which woke the screen on notification, however no longer works since the update.
Anyone got a work around?

Strange lag

Sometimes, when I press on app icon (it's doesn't matter, Samsung's app or third party) a phone make 1-2 seconds pause and only than start open app. I can't say that phone hangs. My phone stock, no root, with latest nougat patch. I use Nova launcher. Does anybody has problem like me?
Try clearing cache , reboot and see , if it's Durant help id suggest do a factory reset and see
