I'm having an issue with priority notifications affecting ring state.
Switching between vibrate and full ring volume will turn off priority notifications if they are set on (time limit, indefinitely, and through moto assist). Switching priority notifications on or off will turn the ringer back on if on vibrate. Is there any way to fix this? It seems like priority notifications should not affect ring state. I would test it on another phone, but I don't know anyone who has lollipop.

I recently noticed that I was always missing calls and not seeing notifications while my phone is on vibrate. I got someone to call me while my phone was on vibrate and noticed that the vibrate is REALLY REALLY weak. It was not this way when I first purchased the phone. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
What I've tried: Turning haptic feedback on and changing the vibrate intensity level to full in preferences > sound & display. It vibrates just fine for the haptic feedback but still has a very weak vibrate for ringing and notifications.
The only modifications I've made to the phone are: Root, circle battery icon mod and uninstalled AT&T bloatware.
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
Hopefully I'm just missing something, but possibly this is just how the s6 is.
I'm coming from an HTC One m8. One thing I liked is when i put the volume down all the way and onto vibrate, the notifications would all vibrate - and if i brought the volume back up and vibrate turned off they no longer vibrated... seems sort of simple.
But the s6 doesn't appear to be handling them this way. As far as I can tell if I want a notification to vibrate I need to go into every app (twitter, messenger, gmail. exchange email, calendar, etc) and turn on notification vibration there individually, at which time they will vibrate regardless of the volume setting. If they are turned off, then they will not vibrate at all regardless of the "global" vibrate setting.
Is there an easy way to enable vibration on all notifications and then easily turn back off?
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.
Hi.
sometimes (at least once a day) it happens to find the volume of notifications at 0. The volume of calls, system and multimedia are ok, that of notifications is set by itself to zero.
do you have any suggestions on what it might be?
Do you have any automation turned on? (Bixby Routines)
I use DnD during the night, but it is set like the other phone
