Having conversations, my phone gets a notification.
I don't want to tell my boss to shut up for a few minutes while I unlock my phone and muck around trying to turn the sound off.
Hitting the power button just shuts it up once, doesn't keep it quiet.
Any way to shut the damn thing up without fuss?
Set do not disturb mode in the hours you are at work. You can set it automaticatly for the hours you want.

Hi,
I've had this problem for awhile now, and can't seem to find out how to fix it.
My mogul works awesome, when it does.
This is what happens...
Pretend it is 1:15 and I turn my back light off by hitting the power button. At 1:30 or anytime after 1:15, I will hit my power button back on to check my phone. The screen turns on, I still see 1:15 for about 1 second, then it goes to the current time, 1:30. If I got a text message/phone call/alarm during this time my phone was "frozen" when the back light was off, I will miss it. As soon as I hit the power button, I will get the missed calls/alarms/texts/etc.
Now, what the heck?! I did a hard reset, thinking I might have messed up my phone some time, but it is doing it again.
The problem is sporadic, but it does it a lot !
It is so frustrating, please help. I explained the best I could!
Thanks!
I actually have the same problem, as well as even if i don't touch the power button, my alarm clock goes off about 60% of the time if it's plugged in. I'd hoped that when I bought this phone I could exploit the alarm function because it lets you set multiples, plus the alarm on my last phone wasn't very loud. I love my phone, but I still wonder, why the hell are there so many things that "kinda" work? It's a frikkin joke.
This has happened a few times, I get a call, my ringer goes off but the screen is stuck in sleep and doesnt switch on no matter what I do, in the process I miss the call.
Just wondering if anyone else has had trouble bringing phone out of sleep, not necessarily when ringing, but it has also happened at other times, I have to press menu 4-5 times before I get a response sometimes.
I'm wondering if there is a way to completely stop all vibration.
I've disabled haptic feedback and vibration for the keyboard, etc. The phone still vibrates when the battery is low and it pops up telling me there is 15% battery left, and so on, until it dies at which point it still vibrates.
Does anyone know of a way, outside of ripping the vibrate motor out of the phone (lol), to completely stop any and ALL vibration?
Why?
And no, I've no idea.
I took my phone apart a few weeks ago to troubleshoot my power button. I found the vibrator is just a little button sized box. Use a Torx5 to take your phone apart and you'll see what I mean. Maybe you can just remove it with no other side effects.
If you are stock gb, have you tried going into settings, sound, vibrate and select never?
Hi all,
I'm having an issue with my phone staying silent. I enabled My Places for Work and Home. Essentially, when the screen is off for a certain amount of time, I go from Vibrate only mode to sound mode. It doesn't seem to want to stay in Vibrate for more than 10 minutes. Moving around my office will cause it to change.
The same happens when I'm out and about and set the phone to silent. Instead of retaining the setting, it decides that it should turn notifications on. This is obviously annoying if I'm trying to keep the phone from intruding during a movie or a meeting.
I'm running 935U.
Anyone?
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?
