Un-linking ringtone and notifications via application, forces DND mode. - Xiaomi Mi Max 2 Questions & Answers

I just got the MIUI 9 update(although didn't try this before) and I'm trying various applications to allow me to effectively mute all notifications and allow phone calls to ring with sound. I've tried a few and they all work, but they seem to turn on DND mode and don't always release it leaving me with no sounds at all. Has anyone had any luck unlinking the phone and notifications with Nougat and MIUI?

Quick update...to simplify I downloaded silent.ogg and applied it to my default notification sound and each app that used special. This way I have ringing all the time with volume and all other notifications just visual and in some cases, to my watch. It works.

[Q] gmail notification no longer vibrates

I just noticed this morning that whenever I get a new email, only the notification sound plays. The vibration no longer happens. I do have vibrate set to "always" in the volume setting, and also in the labels notification options in gmail.
Does anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it?
I installed Volume control app from the android market last nite. Not sure if that did anything but tried uninstalling it and still the vibration is not working.
Haptic feedback still works.
Never mind, I figured it out. Volume control did messed things up. I downloaded another volume app, Volume Manager. It's got a setting for vibrate on notifications and that's disabled.
Apparently when Volume control installs it disables certain things by default and has does not provide a way to re-enable it.

[Q] Gmail App on HTC One Vibrate Profile

Hello, I'm using the latest gmail app - can anyone tell me how to possibly have my HTC One vibrate only for all incoming email when on the vibrate profile? I have put the phone in vibrate mode, and in the gmail app I have label notifications checked, a notification sound enabled but vibrate unchecked, and notify for every message checked in notifications as well as in label settings per the instructions from google (it's supposed to follow the logic that if you have a sound enabled then when you put the phone in vibrate mode it will just vibrate instead of play a sound, unfortunately this does not happen). I would like to have my gmail set up as follows:
Normal mode - just play a sound, do not vibrate for new email messages
Vibrate mode - just vibrate for new email messages
Silent mode - No sound or vibrate
The way things are working currrently are as follows:
Normal mode - just plays a sound (will also vibrate if I check off vibrate)
Vibrate mode - does not vibrate for new messages (will vibrate if I check off vibrate, but then this will make normal mode vibrate as well)
Silent mode - No sound or vibrate
You would think this would be easy, coming from iOS I should've known better. Any thoughts from the experts in this group? This is driving me nuts not being able to figure it out. Thanks in advance!
Anyone?

Probably a way to do this in Tasker, not sure of another method without root access and custom ROM or something though.
I am rooted and running ARHD 8.1. I have tasker as well but not sure how that would help.

Using Android Wear with OnePlus 3T's Profiles

I've recently upgraded my old OnePlus 2 to the new Oneplus 3T. Alongside my oneplus, I use a Sony Smartwatch 3.
When I use the profile slider (is this what it's called?) to select Silent / DND / Normal my Smartwatch will change too. In Silent & DND modes, my watch will not notify. In Normal mode, the watch will vibrate for any alerts.
With the OnePlus 2, I was simply able to put it into Normal (slider at the bottom) and just manually bring the volume down to Vibrate. This way, both the phone and watch would vibrate for any alerts.
Since changing to the OP3T, I don't seem to be able to get this same setting. As before, in Silent and DND modes, the watch refuses to vibrate. In Normal mode, I'm unable to bring the volume down to zero - it seems to be locked.
Does anyone know a way of putting both devices into just Vibrate only mode??
Thanks :good:
I'm in the same boat. I've seen there's couple of xposed plugin for Oneplus 3 to change the slider behavior, sadly none of them seem to be compatible with 3t.
I'd love to control only the ringer volume with the slider instead of changing notifications mode.

Same - Ideally I'd like Silent (for night) / Vibrate (for work) / Ring & Vibrate (any other time)

The only way to get around this is to get a toggle app like power toggle that you can find in the playstore. You place the phone into ringer mode then use the toggle button to make it vibrate. Power toggles is pretty nice and I use it for other things like to toggle brightness to a certain percentages.
Here's the kicker.... You will not receive call notifications on your watch but you will get everything else. You also cant change the stock dialer even if you disable it it will still pop up
This is the reason I stopped using Alert slider as it doesn't play well with my Huawei Watch (there is no plain vibrate mode without DND mode turned on).
Luckily, I managed to make my custom-rom like xposed module (GravityBox) compatible with OOS 3.5 which allows me to
change ringer modes directly from quick settings or by using Quiet Hours.
i had a wearble but coldnt sync it

[SOLUTION] Oneplus3T LED notification on Android 8 (OREO)

Good morning fellas, I have an "issue" that is driving me nuts and I hope someone here could give me a solution for this, I will try to explain:
Since Android 5, the notification system has changed and I hate it!
I always (almost) use my phone in "vibrate mode", I like it to vibrate ONLY when I receive a call or SMS. Messaging Apps like Whatsapp/Telegram, I want the notification LED to work,
for that to happen I need to set a notification tone under Settings > Sound and Vibration, but if I set any sound for this and the phone is in vibrate mode, all the sound is converted into a vibration,
even if the options in Whatsapp, for example, was mutted with no vibration and sound at all... with these settings, the LED works like a charm, but the devil vibrations happen aswell and if I set a notification sound to none, the vibrations vanish, but the LED stops working too... it is really boring, the Whatsapp configuration SHOULD (in my opinion) override the System configuration...
I guess you already understood what I want: phone in vibrate mode, with no vibrate in whatsapp, only LED... (I already tried to block vibration permissions for whatsapp with a 3rd party app for rooted devices with no positive result, because it is a system "bug")
The wierdest thing is: before the update to Oreo, it was working the way I want, even with the crap notification system!
That's it... sorry about my english and thanks for now
Thing is, in some Oreo roms for some reason I had to give permission manually to each app to use LED light...
Use VibraFix from play store (root) if you want to disable all vibration, give WhatsApp permission to use LED light and override do not disturb = no vibrations but LED works.

Unable to stop notifications sounds when on the call

When I'm on a call, all notifications makes a chime as it comes through, even though the phone is set to silent and vibrate one.
1. I have disabled the setting in the phone app's setting: "Notify during calls - Allow alarms and notification to sound during calls"
2. I have all notifications set to silent and vibrate all the time because I don't want sounds.
3. I tried using an unobtrusive "pop" sound as the notification sound, but when on the phone, all notifications sounds switch to the default Samsung ringtone that is very loud and distracting to the person on the other end.
Any idea why this is happening? Anything I can try next?
I have Galaxy S10 Unlocked (Pie - July 1 Patch)
