Crazy S5 Constantly notifying - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I've just bought a S5 and every 5 minutes, I hear the notification sound whereas there is no notification at all ! Please help me, this is driving me crazy to hear it every 5 minutes...
Thx in advance !!!

Turn OFF Sync, and go through every app ( Twitter , Instagram , and all that ) and remove the notification in settings of each.

Ok trying that and I'll keep you in touch !
Thx !

didnt you set so you get every 5 minutes notification when you have new SMS?

I know I've put a 5 min remind when I dont read a notification. Maybe it comes from my old unread emails which appear on the email app... Well I've tried turning the wifi off and the phone keeps sounding with thr notification sound I have, even when I removed my email account from the phone.
What do you think ?
Thx for your answers !

Look at your text messages if you read them all

[Q] Email Notifications

Hi all
When I get new POP email, the notification sounds every 5 mins until I read it.... Is there any way to make it notify only once?
Thanks
Same problem here. Also when I got more than 1 email i get multiple notification sounds and is vibrating really long.
I find it quite annoying.
If its googlemail, open it up, press menu and then settings. Under notification's there are 2 options, 1 is about only one notification per message and the other is about how many times it will notify you

[Q] SMS/MMS questions

hey guys searched but did not find the answer....
I just got the Tmobile g2 and im new to android OS, had a TP2 before. How can I set the MMS message of a contact to stay on longer? When I view a picture message it just stays on for a couple seconds then goes right back to the text message. Is there any setting that I can make this longer?
Also is there a setting somewhere that can make it so that when I click the contact's picture, it will dial that contact automatically? I had this feature in my TP2 and would love to set it up like that.
Thanks in advance all
I would recommend downloading chompsms. I just did this for the first time last week and it blows away the standard android sms app.

SMS notification bug
Hello, I wonder if some one here have same problem: Some times my HTC Desire Z with latest ROM doesn't want to notify me that sms is received, and I should randomly go in to Messages folder and find out there that there are some unread messages. It is not a Settings problem, because it is happening randomly. Let's assume every 10 or 15 message will be missed. Also, If i see that there are unread messages, i can read them from Messages folder, not from notification bar. And if I do so, notification in notification bar will not disappear, until i clear it manually... really strange. Thanks for solutions.

The length of each slide is decided when composing the MMS. If the sender sets it to 7 seconds (5 is default) then it will only be on for 7s. Save the attachment and you can view it for longer.

Factory restore after update helped to solve this problem
Desire Z
I have the same issue and it wasnt this way on the vibrant or the original MyTouch 3G. When someone sends an MMS, say a picture message, it shows up as a short 10 second video. I have tried saving as an attachment but didnt seem to allow me to do that.

Limit number of notifications by time

Hi,
I have been using WhatsApp a lot more than usual lately and there's something that's bothering me. While the screen is off, there's a notification for each message received. So, in case I have someone messaging me 20 times in a row, I will hear the notification tone 20 times. I know some apps limit the number of notifications by time and I'd like to do this with WhatsApp.
Is there some way to do this? To make it clear, I'd like to be able to set an option like "Only ring once for whatever number of messages every 30 seconds".
Thanks

I've seen this in custom Roms but not in Stock.

You can limit notifications frequency in light flow. I am not sure if that's exactly what you want or not, but I have it set so if I get more than say 2 texts in a row within 10 seconds that it doesn't play the sound or vibrate more than once in that time frame.
Thank you so much @frigidazzi ! I already used Light Flow to manage the notification led but never used it to manage notification sounds. I just configured it to only ring once every 10 seconds and it's working perfectly.
Again, thanks a bunch!

how to hide messenger and instagram messages from lock screen etc

Hello I have S8 with reno 13.4 .
I want to ask, how some guys on their phones like Samsung s6 S7 when they receive a message from Instagram and messenger doesn't show the message on the lock screen and doesn't show the name of the sender ? For example my gf when she is with me I don't want her to see if someone send me a message on these two messages and say that's just someone send message. But not who send it, I don't want something like that to appear.
How to prevent that?
I been searching almost all the Google but I can't find something.
Maybe I can't find it cuz I don't know how to describe the problem
Thanks

In the Messenger app, Notification & Sounds, you have the "Notification Previews" ... turn it off. For Instagram you have multiple options: Settings, Apps, Notifications, Instagram...
You can set this per app.
Just go to settings -> notifications, then tap on an app and set the lockscreen notification to none.
Can't tell you the exact terms, I have a German menu.
