vibration-that never stops

Ever since I enabled activesync for pushing gmails to my phone, my vibration notification for incoming emails gets stuck on vibrate whenever I receive an email. What I mean by getting stuck on vibrate is that the phone literally stays on vibrate and will only stop once I wake up the phone. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Have you got the email notification sound set to a file that is no longer there?

Disabling vibration for a single app

Hello folks,
Since upgrading to the S4 from my S4, I seem to be having a very odd and annoying issue.
I normally have Touchdown which I use for email set to notify via sound and light only, however when I set my GS4 to vibration mode, and despite not changing my touchdown settings, the phone vibrates for new emails.
My research has shown that yes, you can disable vibration altogether (system wide) to avoid this but I want to know if there is a way to ONLY get Touchdown not to vibrate on new email when the phone is set to vibration mode.
Thanks for your input!
Bump!

I just got an upgrade to my Sprint S3 to 4.3. Now I have this problem. Did you discover a solution?
More info: currently, my email notifications in Touchdown are set to custom sound and vibrate off. When the phone is in normal sound, I don't get a vibration and get my custom sound. When the phone is in vibrate, then I get a vibrate notification for my email. I suspect that there is a way to do this via "Blocking Mode", but I don't want to put the phone in and out of that every time I turn on vibrate.
Thanks.

Nope.
Pretty sure it's a system wide thing in Android as it seems to apply to other apps as well.
Which sucks.
That does indeed suck. I'm going to try using "Blocking Mode", but it's still a bit more universal that I want.

Bug? No sound and vibration on incoming notifications (about 50% of the time)

Hi everyone,
before I take this into my list of OOS 2.1.2 bugs, I'd first like to evaluate whether I'm alone with this issue or not.
THE ISSUE: Approximately half the time, when a notification comes in on my phone - no matter from which app - the phone doesn't vibrate or play the corresponding notification sound.
WHAT SETTINGS I AM USING: I have been using "VibrateMode" for a while and have set the notifications slider to All/Vibrate/None, and this usually happens when vibration is on. So my first thought was, this might have something to do with VibrateMode overriding the original "priority notifications only" setting to "vibrate on notification".
WHAT HAPPENS: However, today this also happened when I had set my phone to "all notifications" and had the volume pulled up all the way. When I first received an email, the phone vibrated and played the notification sound. A little later another email came in, plus an update notification from Play Store and a news update from Google News & Weather. This time, however, there was no sound and no vibration, only the LED was blinking. This also happens frequently when receiving messages on FB Messenger. Half of the time, the phone doesn't vibrate when a new message comes in, but only the LED starts blinking (and the screen turns on thanks to Glimpse Notifications - otherwise I'd probably miss half of my incoming messages.)
So, is anybody else experiencing this bug?
UPDATE:
Can't say with 100% certainty yet, but it appears that activating "Ultimate Notification Control" in GravityBox helped with this issue. Will confirm after/if a couple more notifications come through correctly.
Still curious as to whether I'm the only one experiencing this bug.

No, but I'm considering updating to OOS 2.2.0 in the coming days, so I'll see whether the bug is still present then.

S7 Edge Errors

I have noticed several things with my S7 Edge. Had it since it's release day.
The Wifi network available notification keeps popping up when I don't have service.
I have already turned off the setting for it under, Settings-->WiFi-->Advanced--->Network Notification--->OFF. But it keeps popping up.
Sometimes the vibration intensity for notifications get turned off on their own. So all text messages become silent.
Am I the only one experiencing this problem?

LG v20 notifications not showing occasionally (until phone is unlocked)

Hi guys, I wonder if this is a setting issue or something.
I have my phone set to vibrate mode. I get notifications on second screen as per normal when i am using the phone. When the phone is locked, sometimes I still get instant notifications (ie. gmail, whatsapp etc)
But sometimes the phone doesn't show any notifications at all! (Noticed this as I was logged into gmail on pc, I had new emails but none were popping on the phone)
However, upon unlocking the phone, all the notifications started popping in!!
This defeats the purpose of a second screen if I have to unlock the phone to receive notifications!
Please help~
It sounds like the phone went to 'sleep' and doesn't wake even as I get new mails and stuff.
EDIT: I have tried battery optimization, set gmail and other mail apps to ignore. But that doesn't help.
