Notification Issue / question for stock updated to 6.0 - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just flashed the stock image upgrading my Nexus to 6.0 MRA58K and for the most part love it but I have one issue that is driving me nuts and google isn't helping me.
I use GoSMS as my texting app. If the phone is awake, I get the pop up and ringtone notification when I get a text, but when the phone is asleep and I receive a text, the screen will wake up briefly showing the message but not ringtone. I have gone in to apps and set GoSMS as priority and gone through all sorts of settings to try and get it figured out with no success. Meanwhile if I get an email or even a tapatalk notification when the phone is sleeping, I will get the screen waking up and the notification ringtone just fine. I have a custom ringtone for GOSMS only so don't know if that has anything to do with it.
Anybody else run into this or know what could fix the issue?

Alert sounds keep turning off by themselves

I have email and text messages set to play a tone, vibrate and display an on screen message, but since Monday these keep getting turned off somehow. However, the ringer is unaffected. This is very annoying as it's causing me to miss work emails. Any ideas on this? I've so far been unable to track down the cause.
I'm running the newest L26 ROM, and haven't installed anything recently.
Have you by any chanced tried the new Opera 9.5 beta? It has a bug that does exactly that, turns off all the notifications everytime you launch it....
Actually, yes, I completely forgot about that. Thanks a lot... I was missing important SNMP alerts.

[Q] Tempremental notifications on GTalk

Hey all,
I'm running LPT since it's release, and it's been working great. However one thing I noticed since changing from GB is that GTalk notifications don't always work. Most of the time they do, but sometimes they just don't happen.
I have it set to vibrate and status notify, and when this happens, I'll either get a status icon only, or no notification at all. This gets annoying, especially when the phone is in my pocket, as I have to keep taking it out to check if I have messages.
Never saw this issue on GB... Anyone else seen this or have any ideas?
Thanks!

[Q] Notification Vibration Stopped Working?

I'm no longer getting vibrations on my wrist with my Gear Live. I haven't touched anything, but they just stopped. The motor does work however, I've tested it using the Phone Finder app. I've tried resetting the device, restarting the device, and making sure that it's not on mute. I can't seem to find settings for this anywhere; could someone help me out?
Edit: I love how as soon as I post this, vibration starts working again..
Could it be that certain apps aren't getting the thing to vibrate, but others are? Anyone else getting vibration notifications with Textra?
I swear vibration didn't work every time. It's so faint though that even when it does, I don't notice it

Watch not vibrating for text messages
I noticed my Gear Live wasn't vibrating for text messages. It seemed random whether or not it vibrated for text messages. It vibrated normally for all other notifications. I have now discovered (and I believe and hope it's a software issue) that my watch will vibrate every time for incoming texts if and only if my phone is set to silent or ring mode. If the phone is set to vibrate, my watch will not vibrate for incoming texts. My Phone is a Samsung Galaxy S4 on the Verizon network running Android 4.4.2. I have tried rebooting, powering down andback on, and even a factory reset all resulting in no change of behavior. Is this similar to what you were experiencing? Anyone else experiencing this?
Text message vibration not working
I also noticed I'm not getting a vibration for text messages. Not sure why, I've had the watch for a week now and this just started a day or so ago. I've also restarted and reset to factory settings with no luck. If anyone knows of the issue, please post. Thanks!

Not sure if it's a permanent fix or not, but I actually shut my phone down completely (Samsung GS4) and turned it back on. I did a couple test text messages and the watch is picking up the messages and vibrating again. Again, this could just be a band-aid but it did seem to work.

Anyone has Notification vibration problem?

I'm using Galaxy S6 Active in Korea
Of course, i unlocked, and updated to 5.1.1
(i used 5.0 just few days, i can't remember how long did it maintain)
Now my phone seems to treat the vibrate profile as silent.
text message vibrations is Okay(i'm using google messenger, not basic sms app, not google hangout)
But, Call notification,FB,Gmail....and so on, all of feature which has vibration noti feature do not work now.
Actually i already did device reset once. at that time, i could get vibration notification.
but few days later, back to present state.
i googled, and i got some people who were experienced like me.
but they said various opinions about this problem such as battery saving mode, 5.1.1 updating...etc.
plus no oned replied "i fix it!"
I constantly use the vibrate profile and this is very problematic not having the phone actually vibrate because I am missing notifications a lot now.
Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone know how to fix this?
plz give me your comment
I read, I think on Android central, that this occurs when power saving mode is on after updating to 5.1.1. This didn't happen on the previous software.

WhatsApp help please

Ever since I have had this handset I am not notified when I get a call on WhatsApp.
On my old OnePlus, if someone rang it would wake up my screen and in full screen.
I have my phone on silent usually but still used to get the full alert in my old phone. On this phone, I have to unlock the phone and click in the top bar to see someone is calling me.
Ive fiddled with notifications and alerts but no joy.
Any ideas?
Application such as CCleaner can supress application notifications, if you have used it, try removing it from your Device. You can also try resetting notifications to default to fix this.
