Allow certain apps to make noise in silent mode - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

Is there a way to only all certain notifications to make a sound like fb messanger when i have my phone on silent? I know about do not disturb but i still want other notifications to pop up but no sound when i have my phone on silent or vibrate. Even if there was an app for this that would be great. Thanks

I just know some Android roms come with Silent, Priority, and regular Notification. Priority will allow important apps (like Facebook) to override.

Yes its called "Do Not Disturb" in your settings. You can set everything in there.. Here are some screen shots:

For some reason, xda app, and tapatalk are having issues loading pictures.

[Q] epic will not vibrate w/ new texts

when i have my phone on vibrate it does so with calls but not on texts even though i turned on the option under the settings for texts. i also tried audiomanager which doesnt seem to work either.
anyone else having this problem and is there a way to fix it?
Annoying as it is, the vibrate for incoming texts is controlled separately from the ringer volume. Meaning that if you turn on vibrate, it will always vibrate even if your phone isn't set to vibrate.
Menu -> Settings -> Vibrate from the text thread list.
My solution is to use the Tasker app to vibrate the phone when I receive a text on the condition that variable %SILENT = vibrate.
What I'm trying to say is that even when I go to settings and vibrate under text menu it doesn't vibrate on texts. I may give that app a try.

I started having this problem a few days ago and just solved it. I'm using Handcent for SMS, and even though my phone was set to vibrate, and Handcent notifications were set to vibrate, suddenly all of my notifications (Handcent and otherwise) stopped vibrating. Vibrate still worked on calls. I simply downloaded the free app "Sound Manager" from the Market and went to Vibrate from the Menu. For some reason Vibrate for Notifications was set to "Never". Not sure how, since I don't think there's a setting for this in the stock settings on the Epic, but I changed it and now vibrate works on all notifications again.
To me this is easier than setting something up in Tasker (though Tasker is way cool).
Sweet! Thanks so much its finally working now...

Notifications vibration

anyone having problems with the phone not vibrating when receiving notifications like sms, gmail, whatsapp etc?
i have vibration set to 'always' under sound settings and also in the individual apps but the phone only vibrates for incoming calls only...
have you checked the notification settings in the apps your using? they are separate from the main sound setting i think.

Phone Wont stop Vibrating.

Even when I sent the phone to NEVER vibrate if I go to volume settings and minimize all sounds to have no sounds and have the phone vibrate settings set to never.
The phone will still vibrate when I recieve a text.
It wont vibrate on an incoming call or email.
How can I get this phone to not make a sound when I truely want it on silent mode.
If I put it on silent mode then alarms and media have sound and I dont want that either.
Does anyone have any solutions Im on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1130117
Is there an apk I can download or something.
What app are you using for Messaging? If its Handcent you need to go into that app's settings to disable vibrating on incoming texts, one thing is adjusting the settings on your phone, but apps miraculously have their own settings, and act upon themselves.
If its the stock app, its in the settings at the very bottom.

[Q] How to disable vibration and sound in messaging app?

When you unclick the vibrate option in notification settings in the stock messaging app, it won't vibrate when you receive a text if you set your phone to vibrate mode.
I don't want my phone to vibrate and make a sound with volume on when receiving texts, but there doesn't seem to be a way to have it vibrate only when in vibrate mode and make a sound when in sound mode without vibration.
Other apps like groupme allow you to separate vibration and sound mode, but can't in the stock messaging app
Anyone know how to do this?

I think, it's with your SMS app.

I get it. The setting we have on our stock messaging is totally different on the profile setting we have for the phone. So, basically, it won't work the way you want. If you unclick the vibrate on SMS setting, yes you're right, even if you put the phone on vibrate, it will not still vibrate when you receive notification for SMS.

Yep. So it seems that it is all or none with the vibration option. Sucks.

Ya. But that makes it vibrate all the time, not only when it's in vibrate mode.
I want it to only vibrate when on vibrate mode, not sound mode

Just put on your profile on Vibrate mode so that when you receive notification, it will vibrate. Or if it still doesn't work, don't know what to do anymore.

[Q] Is it possible to have vibrate on for ringtone and off for notification?

The volume control and vibration control on this phone is much less customizable than I would like.
Vibration mode turns everything to vibrate, but I get vibration notifications for emails as well as text and everything else. I would like it just to vibrate for ringtones and text if possible.
On my old phone I was able to turn off vibration for notifications and leave my gosms to do the vibration for the text, but it seems like there is no way to turn off vibration for notifications and leave it on for ringtone on this phone.
Has anyone found a way to turn the vibration for notifications OFF in vibration mode? While still leaving vibration ON for ringtones?
Any help would be great.
Thanks

settings>sound> go to the samsung applications section, you can adjust everything individually there... call, messages, email, calander
Yeah try this man like what evil posted settings>sound> go to the samsung applications section, you can adjust everything individually there... call, messages, email, calander
does this allow me to have diff settings for different profiles? I want the sound off for everything but vibrate on for everything but only when set to VIBRATE mode, but when I change to Sound mode, I dont want any notification to vibrate and I want sounds to play for everything, can I do that without having to go into each individualapp setting and changing it?

I tried this but it still vibrates when I receive an email. I'm using Gmail and have the setting for vibrate off in the Gmail app. Does anyone know a secondary app that can control all the notifications other than light flow? I'd even use something like that to fix it. I just want it to vibrate for phone calls when in vibrate mode. Have you guys been able to turn off other vibrations with the method suggested?
