No text alerts (sound nor vibration) - Motorola Droid 3

No vibration and no sound when receiving texts. The only way to know without turning on the screen is by watching the notification light. I have installed other apps that manage the vibration and what not but I don't want those. They use RAM that the D3 doesn't have plenty of, and the timing gets all off - i feel a vibration... then 30 seconds later the message shows up... then 10 seconds later the sound goes off... it's just a mess. I want to be able to use the native system. Does anyone know how to fix this?
And yes - I have checked in the messaging app for the vibration settings.

[Q][Help] Notification/Ringer goes silent

Ive noticed since I got my X on Monday that randomly my notification/ringer won't make any sounds. Even if I have it set to the loudest possible setting. When I choose the volume thru the volume buttons the sound when raising or lowering doesnt always work either. I have all the settings correct to make sounds. Could this be a Lollipop thing, or is it my X? Has anyone else had this happen?
Yeah, it's been happening with my device aswell.. no idea what could be the reason, either the Lollipop update or some conflicts with moto apps perhaps? Wish I could fix it.
Bumping this in case someone finds a solution!
I found that if I use the volume buttons to change volumes it goes silent. So I just adjust the volume in the settings/sound to change volume.
I've noticed that the volume takes a step down in certain apps and situations, for instance: whenever I get a notification from whatsapp with the screen both on/off, the volume is rock solid.. but whenever a notification comes through facebook messenger with screen off, the volume is ABSOLUTELY low; meanwhile, with the screen on the volume is fine with both of them. SMS, Youtube and Email notifications are fine aswell (for now).
EDIT: well, it happens randomly even when ringing from a phone call even after adjusting from the settings and not the volume rockers. Gosh, Moto should fix this one asap.
If we had a LED I wouldn't care. I have to keep turning my screen on to see if I have a text msg

How to turn off vibrate

Ever since Lollipop I have been frustrated with the lack of ability to turn off the phone's vibrate easily. I used to just set my phone to silent mode all the time (in fact, all day at work). Now my phone is probably louder than it would be otherwise simply because it's vibrating my whole freaking desk every time a notification comes across. I tried using tasker to just lower the volumes but you still can't turn off the vibrate. How in the world can I get this phone to simply show the notifications on the screen (or my Moto 360) without sound and without vibrating?
Also just to add, if I set my priority to None, it will be silent and still show the notifications on the screen, but then they won't show on my Moto 360. Ugh.
For 360-only notifications: Android Wear app -> Settings -> Mute phone alerts & calls
This way, your phone will be silent and your 360 will function as normal. However, this won't stop your 360 from vibrating.

Disable vibration while on calls?

Currently, my phone will vibrate for certain notifications while I am on a phone call. I don't want any vibration to occur while I am on a phone call (although a discreet beep in the background would be good, but not essential, the main thing is no vibration while on a call).
I've looked extensively in settings and can't find any way to achieve this. Have I missed something?
Phone is unrooted and stock ROM.
I'm looking for the same thing! The vibrator is so darned loud and with phone in my ear, it's crazy!
Hi,
It turned out I had to install a 3rd-party app for messaging (Handcent) to get this feature.
Also, after investigating further it turned out that the stock Messaging app doesn't vibrate when you receive a message while on a call (that is, there is no notification at all during the call). So it must have been some other app that had vibrated in my ear. However, I installed Handcent because I still want a notification (a tone) if I receive a message while I am on a call.
Hope this helps.
Look like the bug has been fixed and will be available in "future build"

Notification sound gets interrupted or doesnt play at all (vibration only) =(

Since the last big update, the phone randomly interrupts the message notification sound (SMS, Whatsapp etc.)
Somtimes it plays for 0,5 seconds, sometimes it plays the whole 2 seconds of the choosen sound, sometimes it only vibrates.
Because of this "bug/glitch" I have sometimes checked messages way too late, as there was no sound and I could not "hear" the vibration in my pocket or
the next room.
This is truly annoying.

Disabling short vibration for "low priority" notifications?

Hello,
I am using a Mi9 t Pro for little longer than half a year now ... And it still bugs me, if vibration is enabled the phone will vibrate on every notification entry.
Not only on messages, calls, etc... but on play store updates, youtube routines like refreshing downloaded videos or similar background tasks... Notifications no other os i used has cared about. (Thats why I call them low prio)
However vibration is crucial for me, since I have the phone muted most of the time, it is really annoying to have these short vibrations.
These vibrations are not like the normal ones, they are really short, only a short "brrr", no pattern (brr brr) or a long vibration like the normal notifications make.
Within the normal settings I haven't found anything but disabling all vibrations.
Hidden Settings for Miui dosn't have anything helpful, at least I haven't found anything.
In 4A SetEdit I took a look at the system table but can't really tell if there is a setting for this problem...
Maybe someone here can help? Especially with SetEdit, maybe more in depth rom insight can help here, which I am missing.
Thanks
