[Q] LED Notifications - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey All,
I have a question about the LED notification that is located in the speaker grill. I turned off the notification for when I receive new e-mails, but it still blinks when I get a new e-mail. I went to settings --> Notification flash --> unchecked "mail" Is this not the correct way to turn it off?
Thanks!

Nevermind I figured it out. You have to go into the app settings and disable it specifically for gmail.

Does anybody know why the notification light flashes when I get a new email, even though I unchecked emails in the settings?

Which setting? If you're talking about the notifications settings under the e-mail app, that only affects the notifications within the phone itself(i.e. a sound, and the notification center). I'm not familiar with a way of telling the notification light what programs to blink at and what not to.

I have found a way to disable gmail notification light, unfortunately, it disables all other gmail notifications so it's pretty much useless. If you don't care then do the following.
1) Open gmail app
2) Select 3 dot menu button
3) Select Label settings
4) Uncheck Label notifications

[Q] Disable Gmail Light Notification??

How can i disable the Gmail notification light in XperiaSP without disabling the notification text info themselves for new emails?
I tried using the Illumination Bar app to disable it, but no luck.
Also, does anyone know if the other newer Xperia models give more items in the "Light Effects" section, because it would be really good if Gmail/email existed there so you could disable it, but unfortunately it's very lacking at the moment with only call, text and alarm settings.
Maybe enable the Stamina Mode and then tick all those apps you want to be active in standby, (dont tick Gmail then)

Repeated notification sound, how to turn off

Hey guys,
Just bought my new tab s2 and I've been noticing that every time I get a notification it will repeatedly make the notification sound until I dismiss the notification... Is this normal behaviour or is there a Way to stop this?
Greetings
Have you looked in the message app settings?
i did, but it turned out to be a setting in settings -> personal -> input assistant -> notification reminder, so if anybody else is wondering here you go, thanks anyway

Gmail LED notification, but no vibrate, in vibrate mode.

So I finally returned from a two-year Apple iPhone 6s Plus. Got the Note 8. But I have to get used to Android again. Please help me out.
My phone is on Vibrate mode all the time.
I want the notification LED to work when I get an email in Gmail, but I don't want the phone to vibrate when I get an email. I used to be able to do this on my Note Edge, but now, I cannot get the right combination of settings to make it work on the Note 8.
I've tried different combination of settings in the Notification sections in conjunction with the settings under my account in Gmail. So far, I can only get the LED to blink if I do NOT turn on "Show silently" in the App notification section, and under my account setting: inbox sound and vibrate/sound/beep once. Even though I specifically in the same section, uncheck the "vibrate" box, the phone still vibrates when receiving an email.
Anyone has the right combo to make this work? Or this is a bug of some kind?
Thanks.
i dont think you can turn that off

I've been suffering with this since the s8+. Note hasn't been any different. Curious why the app settings get overridden.

From what I've read it's a bug, I don't want my phone to vibrate or play a notification from gmail just want the led to flash.
So I've downloaded a silent notification "sound" found in the zedge app and then choose this as a sound notification in gmail and it's working fine

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it, but it still vibrated because I am already in vibrate mode (even though I unchecked vibrate in my Gmail setting).
Note 8 Gmail/LED/Vibrate Issue
I think I have your answer. With the Note 8, you can set vibration intensity for notifications to 0 or the lowest setting. This basically eliminates any noticeable vibration when you receive an email yet activates LED, as long as you download silent ringer and turn both sound and vibrate on.

Notification sound with no notification

I keep getting a notification sound at random intervals but there is no notification. I have tried disabling NFC and notification reminders per googles suggestions but that hasn't helped. I downloaded Notification Log History but it only shows actual notifications I am receiving not the ones I don't see. Any ideas?
I got those sounds until I turned off Notification Reminder.
You can have notifications turned on, but turn off the reminder.
Ok I finally figured it out. I had notifications disabled for 115 out of 132 of my apps through the settings menu. I went back, enabled all notifications to see what was going off all the time. Turns out I was getting numerous alerts from Tapatalk and Slickdeals. I went into both apps and disabled notifications through the actual app settings and my issues went away. Not sure why the apps override what I'm doing in the phone settings but they were. Hopefully in the future this helps others. In short, enable all apps in the phone settings and see what's notifying you. Go into those apps and disable notifications within the app.
