LED notification in LP is now working in 23.2.A.1.62 with Silent mode

Finally you will get a LED notification If you set your Xperia to silent mode
This bug has been fixed in the latest build "23.2.A.1.62"
You don't have to wait for 5.1 or using light flow or true silent mode to fix it

Since 5 years ago i use my phone only on Silent mode. When my message on whatsapp arrive, fb notification, call anything, it lights up the LED notification, and it blinks till i dont read it.

On 23.1.A.0.726 when set to silent/no interruptions my led does not light up..
If I mute with volume buttons, that might be another story ,haven't tried though.

But for Xperia Z* phones on lollipop ıt's not working anymore while using silent Mode
This was lollipop fault, not Sony

SILENT/NO ITERRUPTION is made to be like that.
It will not show you notifications, not light up LED light nothing. When i went to cinema i put it on that, i had nothing, moment i went to normal silent mode "with volume key down" i received notification and led light notification.
This mode "no interuption" is like this, nothing cant interrupt you, including led notification
EDIT:
• None
• Priority
• All
1. If you select "None" You really will not receive any more notifications on your phone. But is also important to know that in this mode the alarm clock also no longer rings! Caution!
2. When selecting the "Priority" mode, you will accept the settings from the menu above. This can be configured as your new silent mode.
3. To enable all sound notifications on your phone, choose “all”.

Isn't it a bug then (if true) ? If I set no interruptions,then I want no interruptions whatsoever. Anyhow, a minor issue ,if at all (at least for me) .
What puzzled me from the start is saying finally it works,from my perspective I read :bug introduced (again, if it is so)

It's a bug, because in lollipop 5.1.1 Google fixed it

This is great news! Thanks for sharing this OP. There seems to be some misunderstanding about what exactly this change means or why it's important, but I can tell you a lot of people are going to be really happy about this.
Finally I can have my phone on my desk at work in silent mode and just use the LED to see if I have a message, like it used to be in kitkat.
edit: 23.2.A.1.62 is only for the D6653 right? Can we get this update on the D6603?

Couple of things i've noticed.

Had my 16gb moto g for about two weeks now and i've noticed a couple of things that bug me a little.
The first thing i've noticed is a slight distortion in the ear piece, happens randomly during a call.
Secondly when selecting a ringtone or receiving a call the sound plays very quietly for about a second before jumping to the set volume.
has anyone else had a similar experience?

The ring thing has been around since at least the 2nd gen. It's by design and supposedly there to protect your hearing if you have the phone near your ear when it rings.
I haven't heard any distortion on mine.

I haven't noticed any distortion.

I am not able to see "reboot" option in power options. I just see Power off. No other option is available. Am I missing any thing?

My phone just stop responding....sm times...I hv to lock and unlock again for that

Power off option is all you get with lollipop. Its normal - another stupid decision from Google. However I don't think reboot was an option on KitKat either, but aeroplane mode was.

thanks for the reply. I agree, that this is a stupid decision from Google. But, do we have some option to get that option?

On my moto g 1st gen I used xposed module APM+ (advanced power menu plus) which allows power button customisation but don't know if this is available for 3rd gen.

I think it's a Motorola decision. The Elephone S2 I bought at the same time is also running 5.1, and it has the usual 3 options, power off, airplane, restart.

Did someone notice that on the stock Motorola Camera, using the front facing camera, when taking a snap, it thinks it's in night mode (screen flashes white), but when activating the Night Mode, it takes normal photos

I havent experienced any distortion but one friend of mine reported same. Its feature of moto g and i dont think you could do anything about it.

For the reboot you only have to press and hold the power button. Works for me.

Thanks!

There is a temp solution on these moto phones regarding this issue :
You need to put an insulation tape on the top ( secondary ) mic near headphone jack.

I had the same issue, until I flashed a custom.

How do I disable do not disturb?

Problem:
Phone in my pocket, volume down gets bumped into. The next 3 hours I won't get any notifications. This is incredibly annoying and frustrating.
How in the world can I disable volume down activating do not disturb while the screen is off?

First, the power button has to be bumped first, then the volume down button (various times). Too much bumping.

get a case

The power button does not need to be bumped.
While the phone is sleeping (screen off + short wait), press volume down either once or twice and it will go into do not disturb mode. I can also put on full volume while it's sleeping as well.

Tried what you said. Doesn't happpen to me. Using stock rom.

Issue has just came back. Restarting the phone makes it go away. Seems like we have found a solution! I'll keep a log of how often this happens here.

Which rom are you using? Is Double tap to Wake enabled? Are you using an app to lock the screen? Maybe that app is not locking the screen initially but displaying a black image for a short time before turning the display off.

Stock rom.
Ambient display is disabled.
No App. It did this stock out of the box

RMA would be a better option.

Problem has come back! a week delay this time

I would love an option to disable it on the phone entirely I never use it anyway and it occasionally gets turned on by mistake and I end up missing calls.

Found this in another forum - change DND priority settings to allow calls and messages from anyone. Should fix it!

Nexus 6P shows the vibrate symbol only, when turning volume all the way down

This is a very strange thing that happened to me today. I am not sure what I hit from the outside of my phone to put it into vibrate mode but I noticed the following afterwards:
When I turn the ring volume all the way down it vibrates and shows the vibrate symbol only. I could have sworn there are 2 modes here silent or vibrate. Why is it forcing vibrate? In my settings I have vibrate on call turned off.
I was playing around with the Do Not Disturb features, but not sure how this could affect something like this.
Any ideas? Can people please confirm that on their Nexus 6P when they turn the volume all the way down they don't see a vibrate symbol, but a silent symbol (the tune with the / through it). I want to make sure I am not losing my mind.
My phone is on Android version: 6.0.1

I get vibrate (square with lines on the outside symbol) and if I click volume down again I go to DND. Sounds like you changed a setting in DND options maybe

What you just described is exactly what I get I think. If I go down to the bottom I get the vibrate symbol, if I hit down again I get DND. Does this make sense? I guess DND is silent? I swear on my Nexus 6 there was a Tune with a / through it regardless of DND settings.

Sounds like how mine works, and I'm totally stock. DND is pretty much same as silent but with alarms and I think you can adjust other settings as well. Haven't messed with it much, but sounds like yours is working properly. Did you have MM on your N6? If not, I don't think Lollipop had DND

Can't remember what my Nexus 6 had, but I am pretty sure DND works slightly different in the latest version of Marshmallow. I like what they did with it though, a lot more flexibility. Thanks for confirming that I'm just going crazy and that my phone is functioning properly.

Are you having an app specific issue or is this accross the whole phone?

The whole phone it was the vibration motors.. They swapped it out all is good now well thus far..

I had the same issue. No vibration at all. I put the phone in safe mode by powering down the phone then restarting. Once "Samsung" appears hold down the volume down button until the phone has finished booting. It should then say safe mode at the bottom left corner. I tested the heptic feedback and incoming call vibration while in safe mode and the vibration worked. I then restarted the phone again to take it out of safe mode and vibration has been working since.

Hi. Experiencing same here. Tried safe mode already. Still not working.
