Text notification during calls - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using the native messaging app and cant figure out how to turn on the message notification during a call. Is this not a feature of Marshmallow?

I have the same issue. It's annoying the piss out of me. I'm coming from an HTC7 so maybe that just spoiled me?
Any of the custom Roms have this option?

go into your settings>sounds and notification >interruptions. Here you can edit what notification will interrupt you while being on a call. (Copied from a thread on XDA )
OR
Use tasker. Make a profile that makes a short vibration upon receiving a notification. You could use a sound instead of vibrate.

Unless im overlooking it, there is no interruptions option under settings > sounds and notification.
From what I can tell "interruptions" was replaced with "Do Not Disturb".
I'll have a look at tasker.

Vibrator control on incomming sms

I tryed to use the search function, and I could not find anything about this.
What I am asking for is a program where you can control your vibrator on an inc sms fx. If you have your Blackstone on lets say a table made of wood, then the vibrator is going mental on an inc sms imo.
So does anyone know if it is possible to control the vibrator? I know you can turn it off on inc sms, but I kinda want it.
/thx
i am not sure this is what u want, but you can turn off the vibrate on incoming msg, if that's bugging you. go to settings/sounds & notifications/ notifications tab. and from the drop down menu choose messaging: new text message, and untick the box for vibrate.

Yeah I know you can turn it off, but I don't want it turned off. I want the vibrator to be less "wild" when you get a text. Hope that makes sense.
alright, i got what u mean. and yes i remember coming across something like this, where you could tweak the vibration length. but i honestly cant remember where i saw it. let me try to search and will definetly get back to you if i find it. i think touchresponse has that option try it

Cool man. Will check it out
I tryed the Touchresponse program. But it does not give an option to change the vibration on an incomming text. It only gives settings to change the vibration when you use your fingers on the device.
yes your right, i'm sorry, but on the developers things to do list, he mentions future vibration tweaks, maybe you can ask him about that.
i found valert, but that only tweaks vibration for incoming call
Okay, thx for the help anyways, really appreciate it
Hi
I am also interested in a program or a tweak which makes Touch HD vibrate less--- like nokia- vibrate,stop,vibrate,stop!!!

Ring for calls only - The easy way?

I kind of hate that this is my first post - A little pedestrian - I've been a longtime lurker and thanks to a lot of this forum, I made the jump yesterday to a rooted MyTouch 3G with Cyanogen's latest. I'm pleased.
Coming from a BlackBerry, I've been spoiled by the easy-switch between "profiles", specifically the ability to set the device to only ring for calls and not for SMS or other notifications.
I'm finding a one-touch solution difficult to come by - And I've already tried "Profiles", "Auto Ring", "Toggle Settings" and "Ring Toggle" - Each of them is either a multi-step process to get to "just ring for calls" or won't turn off SMS vibration, a common issue?
Anyway, great community here and I hope to be a small part. If anyone knows a simple, reliable way to set my phone to just ring (for nighttime important calls) and silent everything else (except alarms) - Please let me know!
Thanks!

Um have you tried going into settings, sound/display -> ringer volume? You can check a box and mute your notification sounds. Personally, I find this really easy already but if you must have that one-touch then.. I don't know

It isn't a deal-breaker or anything, but even with a shortcut to "Sound & display", it's a few extra swipes and pokes
I was hoping there was a shortcut directly to that screen or just a simple on-screen button that could turn everything but alarms and calls off.
Thanks

Yes sir! That's what we want - But how do we get that screen as a shortcut or widget on our home-screen?

i think that if it were developed it would need to also toggle the "vibrate on" selection within each notification setting for the various apps that utilize notifications. like gmail app, email app, exchange app, messaging apps, sms/mms etc. it is currently an android weakness compared to winblow and dingleberry but the other strengths of the os outweigh this and a few other features' immaturity. try the market...
well as of right now I can offer you one thing that requires 3 clicks lol
use a shortcut widget! But that is almost as long as doing it normally... lol
although there may be a way using better cut (trying to figure that out)
yeahhh I don't know what else you can do ;p
I give up looking for it. I tried using better cut / any cut and tried the "make your own shortcut"
Apparently there is an intent to adjust the volume but.. I don't know what to put in the "data" field. Searched around and not many people know how to use this feature either haha

...point about "vibrate on" is that you'd need a shortcut (as you say) for each app if, like me, you activate "vibrate on" as part of the notification profile for each of the app examples i listed above. in other words, simply silencing notifications volume from settings/ringer_volume/use_incoming_call_volume_for_notifications has no effect on the "vibrate on/off" selection profile for the individual apps.
It seems like the whole "SMS vibrations are different" deal is what really makes this a difficult implementation - Every application I've tried has difficulty specifically with silencing SMS vibrations that are turned on - Otherwise, it's totally possible - Very, very strange that this is still an issue...

text message

How do I get this thing to vibrate when I get a text? I have the ringer off and VIB on at work. Every time I get a text I get the green light but no vibrate alert.
I have been dieing to know something else along these lines.....
How the hell can we make a different sound for when an email comes or a text?
But yes, I do want this vibration too!!!!!!!
You need to go into settings/ sound and display / Notification ringtones
For the text messages viberate
Go to txt program click the menu button go to messaging settings and then you should see viberate.
Hope this helps!
Wow I was missing that. Thanks very much.

While in call, the only way you can go about doing this is by going to homescreen(press the home button while on call)>settings>change the settings specifically. Or, you can change the phone mode to silent from the notification panel and then revert back.
it's strange that it vibrate in call,it's in all the 6.0.1?

Well yes, if you don't want notifications at all while you are on a call alone, you can change the settings from the phone application. Go to your dialer, then open settings and unselect the notify during calls options.
well i don't find the specific setting in call..where is it exactly at the nexus?

Anyone find a solution to this? Do I really have to use tasker to get this done?
Same issue here... there is no option in settings that I can find to turn it off. Its gone from annoying to infuriating... maybe its fixed in preview 5.... if the stupid OTA would ever get here
Drives me nuts, vibration should be off by default while in a call.
vibrate during call bug fixed
Looks like bug has been fixed and will be available in "future build"
I can't post url yet, google: Issue 220951: 7.0 Nougat vibration during call problem
I'm using a Huawei Mate 8 and have also run into this issue, on Android 7.0.
Using Light Flow (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflowlite&hl=en) will allow you to work around this issue.
For each notification type (within Light Flow) there is an option to toggle "Vibrate in call".

Silent notifications when their sound is On

All notifications come silently, with vibrations only, although their sound is on. I think, that is because I use DND rules.
Does anyone have the issue too? How to fix that?
I have 3 devices and all of them have the same issue. The problem came, I think, when they got Android 8 or 8.1.
Just Google the do not disturb mode
Try and see difference between the modes
Look at automatic rules for DND
Voila

No-no. Of course, when DND is ON, I don't hear any notifications.
But! When DND is OFF, notifications don't play sounds.
Restart helps, but not always.

No. Maybe there is some app which causes the problem. And I am almost sure about it. Because just my phones have the problem and I cannot Google similar symptoms. But what the app - I don't know.
My unusual apps:
- ACR (audio call recorder)
- Google Fit
- SoloLearn
- Zedge

I use Google fit too and except a little battery drain ? i have my notification sound.
So you're not rooted etc... Just using app from playstore.
Start eliminate them one by one
1-Check apps that use accessibility service
(under settings / accessibility)
2-Check apps that use notification permissions
(under settings / applications / show permissions and look the notification tab)
3-Did the problem hapenned after a "specific date" it could also be an app update
Zedge app is made to customize notification sound try uninstall this one first.
Also is this happening for all app?
Did you put the ringtone sound to the lowest?
Because on stock notification sound volume is the same as ringtone one. (except with root - but maybe an app you used put it to the lowest)
Putting ringtone sound maybe would debug the thing.
Do you hear the ringtone when a call comes in?
I'm sorry bro i can just suggest some idea you already tried. I hope someone got the same problem and manage to fix. Maybe you'll be the one that will help future user in this case ?
Good luck with this. Sometimes solution is very simple. Sometimes it just need a factory reset. But you don't learn where you f*cked up
