Phone not notifying for texts

Hey guys. I have a problem: for some reason, my phone has stopped notifying me of texts. It neither vibrates nor chimes, regardless of whether it's on silent or not.
I went to my settings to see what's up, and vibrate is set to "always," and my notification tone is on don't Panic. Now here's the funny thing: you know how selecting the chime will preview it? It's not doing that at all, for any of them. Any ideas?
P.s. my volume's cranked, so it's not that.

Check your speaker?Play a song,or a video with sound and see if you hear anything?Is it just text or calls too?Try to change the calls ringtone and see what happens.

I'm actually listening to music right now. And, my phone ringtone works fine and vibrates when I get a call.

Sms app then make sure notifications is enabled. There might be a phone setting somewhere as well

Funny, I have the opposite problem. I receive text notifications, but my phone fails to ring a good portion of the time.

Yeah, notifications are enabled in SMS app.

Tone down the vibration?

Is there any way to turn down the vibration strength, its extremely noticeable when I get a text message and its on silent and when its on a wood table it sounds like a drill.

If you are using CM7 you can adjust the vibration pattern in the sound settings.

[Q] random silent

Hi all
My note phone ringer will randomly go into silent mode not vibrate or ring the option in between so i never know if i get a call or text or anything. dont know why. I will have the ringer all the way up and then pick my phone up after about an hour and it will be in silent mode and ill have 2 missed calls and 7 text messages
It's really frustrating
I'm on stock ICS, and rooted.

I hope in settings in sounds you hav choose off for silent

Or you may have a sticky volume down?

Weird vibration?

I've noticed that my texts I get 2 short vibrates however for other notifications like Facebook, I get a long vibrate. Shouldn't it be the other way around? You can never even feel a text vibrate go off... I know on my note 2 and s3 it wasn't like this.
Also, even though I have vibrate turned off in most apps when they show a notification they still vibrate. What's with that? I had the same problem with the s4 when I first got it.

I've gotten the 2 short vibrates on texts for the S3, S4, and now Note 3. However, I am not sure about Facebook as I do not use that app. If you go to Settings > Device > Sound, you can change the vibration intensity for calls, notifications, and haptic feedback.

Thanks but it's not the intensity that I'm talking about. The vibration pattern just seems backwards or weird to me coming from the note 2. Basically every app gives a long vibrate except for texts which is kinda backwards.

Am I the only one who is having this issue? I don't think it's normal to receive a vibration every time I get a notification even if I have it turned off in the app settings.

Do you have your phone muted, but with vibration enabled? I've seen unexpected vibrations on my phone in that case - I think it may just replace any noise with vibration.

AT&T Note 3 ringtone rings at random times

All
Have stock AT&T Note 3 and the ringtone will start ringing at random times. No matter how many apps or background processes I try to shut down it still continues to ring. Also, I have tried different ringtone but the issue still occurs. Not sure what is causing this. Anyone else experience this?
Only thing I can do is turn the ringtone value all the way down to off or vibrate (it does not vibrate like a normal incomomg call) or reboot the Note 3.

Okay hope this helps others. Using 'Notification History' App I was able to see that the 'Network Monitoring' App-Widget has a setting for a notification of lost signal. I had it checked and set to the default ringtone. By changing it to not notify me it cleared the seemingly random ringtone.
