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?

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me. I have an s7 edge and I have started noticing that sometimes the notifications aren't coming through on my lock screen. For instance I have twitter notifications set up for when someone tweets and the majority of the time they alert me then show up on my lock screen but sometimes when I unlock my phone I'll have a few come through at the same time. It's as if sometimes when I lock my screen it disconnects from the Internet and when I unlock it everything is coming through. I also noticed something different today, I tapped my home button to unlock my phone and on the lock screen I had an alert but as I pressed the home button to wake up from sleep the exact same notification popped up again. So I got it twice but it was already on the screen then it alerted me again when I tapped it. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks
Ever since Nougat update (unrooted) on my S7 Edge, I continuously get notified that performance option is on. I'm not an idiot. I know that performance is on. I turned it on. How can I get rid of that notification or any like it? I have disabled all "services" notifications but it doesn't seem to help. It's really making me nuts. Please tell me there is a way to quiet this without rooting? thx...
if its not system notification just disable them, on MM I remember you had an option to never ask again
It is a system notification and when you turn those notifications off it still pushes through. I've long pressed it and what comes up is services and turning all notifications off doesn't keep it quiet. It comes back seemingly randomly.
Has anyone found a solution to this? Its freaking annoying. Had the phone almost 2 years. I know high performance mode is on....

I've put Do Not Disturb mode on when I'm driving, so that I don't get disturbed by notifications (e.gm whatsapp, Facebook, messages) popping up in bubbles at the top of the screen.
It's simply doesn't work - they still pop up! (albeit it doesn't vibrate).
I've selected the "hide visual notifications" option (see screenshot) but it doesn't work either way.
Anyone else have this issue? Any potential solutions?
Mine still give audible notifications in the night when it should be on do not disturb!
I have a much larger issue. My Galaxy S8+, I will turn on the setting to keep alarms on, one night it will work and the next night it won't so my alarm never goes off in the morning. Therefore I stopped using DND, turned all the setting to off even deleted the days it will operate to none and the setting STILL comes on every night at 1030. I go in to check my settings and they are all back on to the day before. Android is starting to get pretty poor with its updates.
if your display is on and in an app while in dnd calls will still come through if youre display is off they will not come through if youre display is on but not in an app the calls will not come through. No work around i can find as of now
This is so typically Samsung.. They finally fixed it, but only when the screen is off and when on the home screen
Ugh.. My Do Don't Disturb is dysfunctional.
If I'm listening to an audio book, watching Netflix or jamming to my tunes and someone calls what ever I'm listening to/watching pauses while the phone silently rings that's B.S. DND means exactly that DND. All calls should go straight to VM. when DND mode is on. Otherwise I can just turn the darn ringer off. DND is worthless.
For me works well. Only when the screen is off, like iPhone. Have you make the settings propperly? Because you can put if you want that calls don't show on screen.
A similar issue was fixed by hard-reset. Have you tried a factory reset? Factory reset stepMod Edit
Is there still no fix to this?
It seems like a pretty important malfunction and is super frustrating every night.
Anyone manage to get it working properly using Tasker?
On my S4, then S6 Edge I had a Tasker profile to turn on Do Not Disturb automatically when I plug my phone in to charge at night, and it worked a treat.
Not with the S8, no matter what I try, it still vibrates and activates the LED notification, even though it is showing as Do Not Disturb mode on, and in the settings I have ticked all the options to hide notifications when the screen is on, and off, and set no exceptions, or alarms only with the same result.
Any ideas?
Is anyone else having their phone do a random vibrate like a notification came in, but you don't see anything showing up as coming in to have it do that?
Advanced Features->Smart Alert is causing it. It will vibrate upon pickup detection if you have a missed call or unread message.
I've been experiencing the same problem on my S8+ and it's driving me crazy. Notification reminder, smart alert and all these other features are off. Really don't know what to do, I'm guess it's a hardware issue.

Do you have Bixby disabled? It was happening to me when I hit the Bixby button with Hello Bixby disabled.

Hmm, ok. I just turned it Off. It was happening while the phone was already in my hand and I'd be doing other stuff. No calls or msgs were coming in when it happened though. Will see if this stops it.
Settings -> Accessibility -> Notification Reminder -> Turn Off
Hope that works. If not I remember back in my S6 days there was a menu in accessibility also for one of the categories where it had heptic feedback for sounds and everytime there was movement or sound it would vibrate. I cant find it though

Same here, I doubt that it's related to notification reminder. I had it turned off since I bought the phone.
If there is nothing happening (messages coming etc.) I think the vibration might come from the false haptic feedback in home button. Mine does it quite regularly and it is starting to drive me crazy. I hope it is software issue as the DOA isn't available anymore and I don't want to give it for the repair just yet.
My Phone also vibrates when my finger is near the fingerprint sensor and cant read it

Is your bluetooth connected to anything? Once your phone's bluetooth disconnects from the other device, the phone vibrates
I have the same issue. It makes me crazy ! Samsung - any ideas?
Same here. I'm going nuts if nobody knows a solution.
That's since S4 days, people.
Mine does it too while I'm holding it. No notification on the status bar. It will just vibrate by itself.
My S4 never did that and that doesn't mean we should be fine with it.
It happens to me with the home button, the vibration isnt reliable and it sometimes vibrated 3 times.

So I uninstalled an app called Samsung Pay, then my phone just stopped getting the random vibrating.

It is the Edge Panel. I had to turn off the Edge Panel to stop the vibration. Or you can go to settings and turn off the vibration for activating the Edge Panel. What happens is when you hold your phone, your palms sometimes activate the edge panel.
Since we are at it , while am driving and having the phone between my legs it turns on by itself. no vibration or anything. Anyone with similar issues?
P.S No notifications whatsoever. System or Internet based.
Hey guys,
I have this phone since a few weeks ago and recently I realized that I have problems both with the on screen notifications on and the edge lighting.
I literally searched everywhere, but could not find a fix, so I really would appreciate some help!
So, my first problem is that I initially received notifications while my screen was off. Whenever I got a notification, the screen would turn on, however the notification would only appear for a matter of seconds and after that it would completely disappear from the lock screen. Like I never received a notification at all. Therefore, I decided to search for a fix and now my problem is quite the opposite.. I receive notifications, they stay on the lock screen until I swipe them off or open them, however, the screen is not waking up at all after I receive them. For example, when the phone is on sound mode, I can hear the notification sound, the LED indicator is lighting up, but the screen does not wake up. All notifications are allowed and I have unchecked the "keep screen turned off" option. My phone is not on a battery or data saver mode as well.
The second problem is that the Edge Lighting does not work at all. Yes, I tried to switch off and on the buttons, I set the Edge lighting to "always" and enabled all available applications. Restarted the phone numerous times as well, no progress whatsoever. Oh, also the notifications are not in "pill" style.
If that matters, I cleared the cache, I've updated everything and didn't find an application that might cause any interruptions, although I am not excluding that option.
For me works only in messaging app, in edgelighting i have touch all apps.
