Priority notification system - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I need to turn off all notifications at night as well as calls except from a few contacts. So far, so good and it seems the new system allows that
However, I also want alarms to work. Is that possible to do?
Thanks

Did you really need to start a new thread? haha
But to answer your question, I am pretty sure alarms work with the priority notification system as long as you are on 5.1 or higher. There is even text that says "Alarms are always priority interruptions" in mine. But if not, you can set times. Like so.

Random / Phantom Alarm going off?

I'm currently running EnergyRom3.0 series (i believe the 6.05.2009 version) and for some reason every single day at 11:11am and 11:18am the alarm will go off?
obviously there is no alarm set either of those times and all alarms that are set are turned off anyways..I have checked both the Manila alarm settings, as well as through settings/clocks and alarms...both are the same and neither have any alarm set for that..
I've searched around and it seems this is known as a "phantom alarm" that used to occur on older 6.0roms? Either way, the only fix/bandaid was to use SK Tools to clear duplicate notifications..well SK tools isn't free and I don't particularly want to pay for an app that might not fix this..
Other than reflashing, does anyone have an idea how to clear this alarm??
Any help will be greatly appreciated..this is beginning to drive me crazy as every day at work it sounds..even when the phone is on silent..I suppose I temp fix it by setting the notifications to not play sound when phone is on silent but would prefer to perm fix/clear this..
Thanks in advance!
check your calendar. Maybe you have a notification set to everyday and set to remind you.

just checked to confirm and nothing there..i have never used the calendar and it is just a standard alarm that goes off..same tone and snooze/dismiss options as any normal alarm i just cant turn it off...
That sometimes happens when you mess up your database.
Did you restore any data from an earlier backup?
Try to set all of your alarms first, then unset them. Sometimes that works.
There are programs to edit the notification queue, delete duplicate alerts and so on. Try to google some and give it a try.
Good luck!
nope no back up done, just a fresh flash and activesync when it was done..
i also do set all 3 alarms everyday..i just have a few more unwanted one that also go off..the alarms sounds even if all other alarms (note different times too) are set to off..
also today, for some reason all text messages i recieve are said they were recieved an hour prior, well coincidentally my random alarm went off an hour earlier too...
i will see what i can find as far as freeware goes..
thanks

Line for Gear

Has anyone been successful using this app? It is the messaging app I use the most, but in its current state it appears quite useless. It claims it can be used for making calls and sending stickers, but the only option available is to turn the alarm off and on.
If you have figured out how to get this app working, please let me know.

It used to work! I love Line and you could reply with a sticker right from the Gear. But now it doesn´t work...
Alarm off or on refers to the alerts of the Line messages, but no...doesn´t work.
Every time theres an update for GM, I dont restore data from the last GM, this has solve my problems with line. or do a fresh install of line on your gear. you can also try to have notifications on when screen is off.

Do you use Null or the stock rom?

Ok. One more question. Do you have notifications turned on in gear manager for line, or do you let the line for gear app handle them?
Thanks
I finally figured it out after reading through reviews. You have to have pop up notifications turned on in the line app on your phone for the program on the gear to work properly. You can use either the "simple" or "default" setting. This pretty much just makes me not want to use the app.
Thats what I meant when I recommended to have notifications on when the screen is off. you have to play with the notifications settings on the phone. Ive also notice that sometimes notifications dont get send out to the gear when you have a screen lock. How do you like it now? its pretty cool huh, I just wish they included more stickers for the gear
The app requiring pop up notifications was a deal breaker for me. Half the reason I wanted the watch was so I didn't have to turn my screen on as often as I do. I also don't want people just seeing random pop ups. I deleted it in favor of the regular notifications until it gets better.

ROOT CALL BLOCKER not working for me

Guys
I really want to get this app working because it seems like a good one and meets my requirements. But it's either way too buggy or I just haven't set it up right
See attached screenshots in sequence
1) pic1 shows only a night list configured from 9:30pm - 7:30am where i want calls/texts to be rejected. I'm a light sleeper. Outside of these times, its supposed to revert to day list with no blocking configured at all
2) pic2 shows the status right now (11:25am) but somehow it's set to night list
3) pic3 - if I click on day list, this is the error I get. Why does the app think that at 11:25am, night list is the right one since it's clearly configured to be only at night 9:30pm-7:30am
Can someone help?
Thx
Anybody?
I can't help with the app as I have zero experience with it, but doesn't the native priority notification system do pretty much the same thing? I also haven't used it, so I could be wrong.
I am currently using a custom ROM, which I am not entirely sure has changed anything. But it has the option to block certain types of notifications (messages, calls, events and reminders), then has some sub options for them like allowing starred contacts to contact you still. You can also set times.
i went to sound & notiifcation and canot find any times. Can you tlel me where do i find that
thx

Sound and notifications > Interruptions looks to be where they are.
I just googled a guide here

Notifications make no sound, even when selecting one in the settings menu.

I have been an android user for a long time, but this one is stumping me as there is no process or specific error. I have searched and haven't found anyone with a similar problem. Just got a Nexus 6 today and it will not make any notification sounds. The notification volume is all the way up and phone calls have a ringtone that works. What is really throwing me off is that when I am in the general settings or the settings for any other app, clicking on a notification sound has no response. I will be in settings and overlooking the list of potential default notification sounds and no matter which one I click there is no noise, as where with the ringtones they all will play me the sample.
If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it, I hate that something this simple has stumped me somehow.
Thank you.
this happens with my alarm sound in the settings. it just won't play it, even though its a google sound. but, when its needed, like when my alarm goes off, it sounds. and that's what is really important. so I ignore the fact that it doesn't play in settings anymore (it used to though).

If that were the case I could deal with it but it won't even make a sound when its supposed to.

try using an app to set a notification sound, maybe that will work.
This happened to me running Pure Nexus, reboot fixed the issue. Still not sure why it didn't work in the first place

Question DND stop working on Oxygen 13

Hi everyone,
The "Do not disturb" feature stop working after I upgraded my OnePlus 10 Pro to Oxygen 13...
still receive notification even when DND is on and with the settings configured to not allow any app to send notifications.
Does anyone had the same problem? How to make it work properly?
nope. you tried turning off and on?

I tried to turn it on and off. Reboot the phone and still doesn't work.
All visual and sound notifications still go through.
I discovered I can use the focus features to silent a specific app. But that's not what I want. I want to use the DnD as it is supposed to be used. It was working perfectly in OxygenOS 12...
i think it's time to ditch updates... need to get back to a12, they have changed to focus mode or priority mode( funny it has both of them) , so now in order to do (both features that were in dnd before) you need to go to focus mode on and put everytime you gonna install new app to put into list list of blocked apps. so you need 2 tiles in quick list to do it. it's strange that it puts app of notifications kinda slow and seems to close some apps in the process... dnd was best thing to live life with phone but i guess i need to go back to android 12. anyway the new UI is grouse
You should open your settings and make sure it is set correctly. COS13 changed the exceptions on mine so make sure your settings are correct.

As I understand it, they completely changed how DND works in OxygenOS13.
If you can choose who can "disturb you" (no one, people from your contacts or "favorites" (or whatever it is called, I´m using a different language setting) then these people can "disturb" you in ANY way. Meaning if you chose "favorites" - you will be informed about every app they use to contact you.
You will not get notifications about EVERYONE ElSE trying to contact you - even if they call. My display won´t even light up. I will just see a missed call. It´s totally useless.
I'm having this issue, after updating yesterday...
I HOPEFULLY found a solution.
In digital wellbeing's option there is the bedtime mode.
With my test today, i found that works like Oxygen 12, so the notification are silent but the calls from favorite still rings.
In oxygen 12 anyway, there was a bug with this feature, if is set with the optimized battery charge of Oxygen.
Tomorrow I will update you if is really working or not.
Anyway, OP is really messing up everything. It's a shame.
