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

I use Google+ and G+ messenger a lot. I have a very active chat and do not want a notification sound every time someone writes something in the chat. I have set every notification possible to "Silent" in Google+ and Messenger but I still get a notification sound every time someone writes something. A friend tested this out on his phone and his does not do this. I have a feeling it is a sound from Sense UI that I can not find anywhere. I can not even find the same notification sound being used for anything in the sounds menu. Can anyone test this for me or have the same issue?

I have tried that. I have looked at every setting there is in the phone and no matter what this same noise always happens every time I get a notification. I can not even find a setting that uses that same chime anywhere.

I just got my HTC One last week. After some tweaking, I realized that I am running into the same problem. Notification under both G+ and Messenger setting are set to "Silent" with vibrate off. Whenever I get a notification from G+ I also hear the chime sound even though it's set to "Silent", this is actually the default notification sound from stock android (I just switched from a Nexus S). I've tried everything I can but nothing works. Have you fixed the problem somehow? If yes, please let me know how. Thank you.

Nope! It is really weird and is seems like eventually it finally solves itself. The new G+ Hangouts app seems to work better and give me the correct notifications.
Has anyone found out to fix this annoying crap? texts are fine facebook not so much I have tried different sounds using zedge and no luck. Its quiet irritating . Facebook notifications are sooooooooo QUIET i cant even hear them. its almost enough for me to send the phone back. is there any way to fix this and keep it permo without rooting the phone.

On my N6 there were two issues with low sound.
Settings - Sound & Notifications
The media sound with headphone is safety thing, you need to allow more volume for headphones.
Second issue; low incall-volume was solved with Vcplus app.
Don't know more.
I dunno it seems like a issue with the phone or could it be android m? The notifications on any my 3rd party apps like Facebook messenger are so quiet when the screen is off its insane. When the screen is on their normal.

I am sorry for you. I read about low volume when using Lollipop. The current version MM works OK on my N6.
I am using a lite ROM of Danvdh. A debloated stock ROM.
Maybe this thread has more info for you.

I cant seem to get the watch to notify me about anything. I dont have any apps in the block list, the sound is on, not in theater mode. Not sure what else to do.
How do you customize the eco button? It would be much more convenient to put theater mode there than to have airplane mode, is that possible?
Wasnt this supposed to come with that little battery pack? I didnt have one in my box unless its super hidden.

First did you give android wear notications access?
Eco mode button can't be customized....yet, could see that changing in an update. I thought it came with a battery back too however it does not. It is optional. Haven't saw anything about price for the battery pack.
The recent Zenwatch Manager update gives you the ability to customize both the top and bottom buttons. They are accessed within settings on the watch.
I get no audible notifications. Someone told me I should. Android Wear permissions are all on. Only sound I get from The watch is when the phone rings.
I do get all the on screen notifications. I wish there was a clear all for them.

No native notification sounds on the watch (yet). Try Feel the Wear app. It detects notifications on the phone to trigger custom sounds and vibrations on the watch.

Go into the settings of the watch and make sure that under the bluetooth setting
that the "bluetooth audio" is enabled. I am almost certain that the bluetooth audio
in your phone is not enabled and that's the reason why you aren't getting any
audible notification sounds.
Also make sure that the alarm app in the watch is enabled and the alarm audio volume
is turned all the way up. ( you don't need to setup any alarms, just enable it in the audio
options under settings,
There are two apps you can download from the play store if you are interested in uploading
mp3 songs into your watch instead of streaming the music from your phone.
One is called WearMedia and the other is called Wear Music.
The WearMedia also has options for uploading pictures from
your phone to the watch too. Both are free apps.
Good luck, have a great day!
Hi All
Been using this device for about a month now. There are weird and annoying notification sounds which play during notifications.
I've set a default notification sound. It plays sometimes but there are two other annoying notification sounds which get played. I've failed to find out where those sound are. They are not present in the options to select notification sound.
Is there anyone else facing same issue. The sounds are so annoying that I have to keep my phone in silent most of the time.
Any help would be much appreciated.
I'm having the same problem. Random notification sounds, but I don't know where they're coming from...
I was able to resolve the issue. Almost every app has its own notification sound. Not sure where those sound files are stored though. You need to go to app settings section and go to notification. There you need to choose the behaviour. Let me know if you need some screenshots. This is really a dumb UI mistake. And the people of Nokia support have no clue of this.
Device: Redmi Note 10 5G
Firmware: MIUI Global v12.5.3(RKSMIXM)
After the update to the latest firmware, I'm noticing that a lot of my notifications aren't playing sound when they should be. They all have sound enabled in their respective app settings, and the issue seems to only happen some of the time. I've found that I can get them working semi-consistently if I go into the app settings, tap the sound (which is already set correctly), choose "Pre-Installed Ringtones" in the Themes app, and then hit Apply next to the sound file I want to use. Notifications received after doing this seem to work correctly (i.e. play sound) for a while, but then they stop a short time later.
I'm guessing it has something to do with the MIUI Themes app itself, as one app on my phone, Signal, doesn't bring up the Themes app when I go to select the notification sound, instead bringing up a ringtone picker app I found on the play store. Honestly, I hate the Themes app's layout anyway, and wish I could use the other app to choose all notification sounds, but that doesn't seem to be an option.
If anyone else has experienced this issue and/or has any suggestions to fix, I'd appreciate it.
i dont have this bug. try reinstall via software update the full firmware, by the function "download latest package". it's safe, no data loss, and this procedure (that i made mee to) speed up the system

I tried this, unfortunately no change. Multiple notifications still come up with just vibration, despite the sound being enabled and selected. If I go back through and re-select the sound, it works for a while, but will randomly stop a short while later
other sounds works?

Yes, all other sounds seem to work. Ringtones for calls, alarms, media sounds seem to have no issues.
I'll give a specific example: I set the notification sound for Google Voice messages yesterday afternoon. It seemed to work for the rest of the day. Today, I see the notification pop up, but never heard the sound. It's very annoying, so unlikely that I missed it. I checked the settings without changing them, everything is still set correctly.
My suspicion at this point, after having done a bunch of research on how the ringtone picker intent is handled, is that the MIUI settings customization is somehow failing. I believe the notification sounds are stored in the Android settings package, but MIUI has taken over those parts, and somehow that is failing, but I'm not able to dig deeper since MIUI seems to be closed source. Granted, I'm not a dev, and know just enough Java to muddle my way through interpreting and understanding code, so my guess could be totally off.
have you tried remove miui battery optimization from the app that have this problem? and set remove all limitation? sometimes cause notifications issues. also try disable mi notifications app, use only android notification

I removed battery opti.ization from all those apps awhile ago.
As for the Mi notifications app, are you referring to this?
the hest thing u can do is a new clean installation but first u can try change some setttings. but i'm not sure, it's only an ideai. example: open WhatsApp info, and in battery option set remove all limitations instead off miui optimizations. if the priblem don't go away, i think that an update caused this bug so downgrade your firmware to the latest bugless is the better solution. but first u can try modify some setting... or remove the update from sone syatem app if it's possible your bug is particular
I faced the same problem. I use tasker and have one profile that changes the ringtone when connected to office WIFI
it works but then it sort of stops all notification sounds.
Earlier I thought this is some phone setting issue but when i disabled the profile from tasker my notifications are intact.
Probably something to do with theme app.
