SMS Vibration partially working - Huawei P9 Lite Questions & Answers

Hi,
I noticed that SMS vibration only works when selected in app
however vibration it's not working when I select sound profile - vibrate from
notification panel shortcut (stock email app also have this issue).
Is it just sms /email application specific bug?

Please, can someone confirm that SMS vibration is turned ON (and working) when tapped on notification shortcut (sound/vibration) and turned OFF when tapped again on the same shortcut.
Thanks.

No notifications come through when phone is standby

Hello, i dont get any notifications when my phone is on standby mode.
this includes:
Email
SMS
Alarms (windows alarms)
notifications for calendar events.
how does i fix?
okay, so try going to: settings - all settings - personal - sounds and notifications. There thick what you want. With the SMS notification while on stand-by, there is a bug which HTC solved (releasing a hotfix - found on htc.com). Tell me if you have any more problems and if you have solved these problems
No calemdar notofocation when the pin is set-up
Hi,
I have a similar problem. When the phone is on standby and locked (eg. after 15 min) I can not get any calendar notification working.
They all show up when I wake up the phone and enter my code.
The only workaround is to disable the lock, but I need it to be set-up (company policy)
Note that other notifications are ok:
- Call
- SMS (after installing the patch from HTC)
- Alarm
Thanks

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Any progress on this?, I have installed the official htc hotfix for sms, makes no difference for me.
While the sms not notifying is a frustration, I could probably live with it but...
Alarms are the real problem for me... I can't rely on the device as an alarm clock as the alarm simply doesn't sound until I bring it out of standby with the power button.
Any cure for this, is it hardware or software? do cooked roms exhibit same behaviour?

I have the same problem. I have downloaded the fix from HTC, but still my email does not play a sound (the LED flashes though).
I have not checked other things (SMS, alarms etc.)
It would seem VERY silly if the alarm doesn't sound!!!!
For e-mail, you have to go and turn on the notification for that in the sounds and notifications settings,
Settings-->All Settings-->Personal-->Sounds and Notifications-->Notifications-->Event:Messaging: New e-mail message
And select it to play a sound of your choosing.
it is not switched on by default, in this case that is good for me, if I got a notification alarm every time I got a new e-mail, my phone would be sounding alarms pretty much all the time....
The alarm problem not waking from standby, I have posted in another thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=544112 a possible cure, working for me for 2 days at least...

HTC 8525 notification profiles?

Hi all,
I have a question about the AT&T 8525. I already know how to set the notifications for the incoming calls and text messages using the Sound & Notification function. However, if I want to quickly change from sound notification to vibrate notification, e.g. when in a meeting, I have to go to that function again and change vibration to each events. I also know a quicker way to do is tap the volume icon and change the state to vibrate.
The question is whether there is a possible to create profiles for some occasions, such as outside, meeting, silence..., in which I can set the notifications for the events separately, and map that function to a button so that I can immediately change the profile by pressing that button rather than tap this and that, just like the way it can be done with the iPhone or V3i, for example.
Thank you very much all you guys.
PS: I'm using Tai_Sw's ROM - Manila2D 21893 Black 3G

Notification problem

Hi,
I luv my legend, but I have some very strange bugs.
- SMS does not vibrate in vibration mode
- call waiting does not alert so I never hear in coming call when in a conversation
- problems with call notification, it does not ring sometimes, even when in normal ring mode
Any idea guys?
BR
for sms, in settings keep vibrate checked, then install sound manager and control vibrate mode from there, it'll work again. From the app under vibrate settings you can then also create a shortcut to vibrate settings so you can directly access it without having to open the app

Vibration problem with Whatsapp and FB Messenger

With the normal profile:
FB Messenger: vibration works
Whatsapp: no vibration (it works only if I select the short vibration from the app settings)
Vibration profile:
Whatsapp: vibration works
FB Messenger: no vibration (but it should vibrate)
Mute profile:
Whatsapp: no vibration (how it should be)
FB Messenger: vibration works (but it should not!!!)
Why is everything so strange?
Thanks
I was going to post a similar topic until i found yours;
I have similar behaviour with Whatsapp.
Sound on -> no vibrate
Sound off -> vibrates
change vibrate to long or short within whatsapp and vibrate works in either settings. This happened after last OTA
I'm on ME2 fw
im having some issues with whatsapp notifications aswell.
i get a message and it vibrates with sound,
after (when my chat group) gets spamed, i get no vibration or notification.
on my iPhone i used to get a notification/sound ever time a message came through.
I don't know how but the problem with FB messenger is gone. The problem with Whatsapp is't so big.:good:

[Q] Vibrate on new text msg when vibration is on ONLY in Sound Settings

Just shifted to Android 4.3 on a Nexus 4 after years of using Symbian. Learning loads of stuff and loving most of it.
However there is one thing that I sorely miss:- The ability to control sound and vibration notifications through "Profiles". I installed a nifty little app called 'Settings Extended' with which I can control these notifications quite easily.
The problem is that these settings seem to apply only to Calls and not Text messages.
First off, I have kept the vibration notification 'unchecked' in the stock messaging app because I don't want it to vibrate everytime I receive a text.
Next I change the Sound Settings to enable both sound and vibration notification. Here I expect the phone to Ring+Vibrate for both Calls and Text messages..just like in Nokia phones. Sadly this does not happen apparently because vibration is OFF in the stock messaging app.
So now I'm in a fix. If I enable vibration in the messaging app, the phone will vibrate for new texts even when I don't want it to and on disabling it I run the risk of missing the notification sound or blinking LEDs for that matter.
I have tried 3rd party apps like GoSMS and Handcent where they have an additional feature to enable vibration notification for text messages only when "Phone is set to Vibrate". The problem here is that the phone should be in "Vibration mode" i.e only vibration is enabled and sound is disabled for the app to give a vibration notification on new messages. When both sound and vibration are enabled under Sound settings, no vibration notification is produced.
This is really bugging me. Seems unnecessary complication of simple tasks to me. I have searched the net for a solution and although have found few people having the same problem, I haven't come across a solution yet. So now I turn to XDA because I know that if a solution exists, it can only be found here.
Thnaks to anyone who had the patience to go through this post!
