[Q] no vibration on receiving sms

I'm running hydrogenics aokp rom and whenever I get a SMS it doesn't seem to vibrate. I have to keep turning the screen on to see if I got a text..any help? Maybe I'm just not seeing the right setting. I've enabled vibrate and ring setting in my sounds menu.
In ICS roms each app has its own settings within the app.
Open Messaging app >> Menu >> Settings >> Under notifications you'll find Vibrate, select always.

Do not disturb app exceptions

On my S8 I was able to allow certain apps to be excepted from DnD. I cannot find the place to make that change on the 9. I changed ged DnD to custom, but cannot find another place to select the apps I want to be exceptions. Not under the app, not under special permissions (only a short lost of system tools). This one has me stumped.

Which apps are you speaking of? I can see the DnD exception in various apps on mine. You have to dig deep in menus to find them. For example...
Samsung Messages > Settings > Notifications > General Notifications > DnD custom exception.
Gmail > Settings > Manage Notifications > Email >DnD custom exception
Skype > Settings > Do Not Disturb > Receive push notifications while DnD is on.
Then again other like Whatsapp are in the S9 Settings > Apps area
Apps >Whatsapp > Message notifications > DnD custom exception
Having said this it is a it and miss if the DnD exception actually works it seems. I cannot get it to drive side light notifications for Gmail.

Active 911 and I am Responding are the two I want to make exceptions for. Unfortunately, they worked before. Maybe it was going to 8.0 that did it as my S8 didn't get updated until after I switched to the S9.

Update-the exception switch is there for I am Responding. Still searching for Active 911.

I had the same problem (switched phones, couldn't find the DnD exceptions). Ended up here with a Google search.
I found the exceptions under Settings, Notifications, then tap the app you want to create an exception for. It'll be in that next menu.
Previously, there was an "exceptions" menu where you select multiple apps at once to create exceptions for. Now you have to create an exception for each app one at a time. Thanks Android!
Follow up to DND settings issue
Quick follow up to this thread question - after you have set the exception per app and set the custom settings to bypass DND for particular groups, those excepted contacts and apps should override the sound setting, right? I just noticed I missed a tornado warning overnight because the phone was set to DND and silent. I found the emergency provider app to turn on the DND exception but when i go to test the alert sound for emergency alerts via the sms settings, the alert is still on vibrate somehow. Is there something I am missing to allow me to hear emergency alert notifications while in silent/DND mode? I have a Samsung galaxy s7, latest OS with AT&T if that helps. Thanks!

I've been wondering the same thing. There are some things I want to alert me regardless of the phone being muted.
I read a thread a while back where a previous Blackberry user who switch to another smartphone couldn't believe that the only apps that would override mute was 'alarm clock' and 'timer'. Basically, they wanted calendar events to notify them.
So, ya, if there's a tornado coming or you have an extremely important event you'd like to plan for 3 months from today, there's not alarm for that that overrides mute as far as I can tell.
I had the same issue. Active 911 as well. I found the setting within the Active911 app settings. Settings>Notification Settings>Do Not Disturb Exception.

Remove DND Ring APP Exception
I need to remove Ring Doorbell App from DND exceptions. I have been looking for hours for a way to do this. Been through the Ring App itself, Phone Settings>Apps, Settings>Notifications, Settings>DND... I can not find a way to remove the DND permission for the Ring App. Help?
On Note 9 (8.1) I go to "Settings" > "Apps" > choose an app > "Notifications" > tap on notification category in "Categories" section > "Do not disturb custom exception"

App notifications are not displayed on the lock screen

Have you ever been in such an annoying situation that app notifications are not displayed on the lock screen? The following is the solution I summarized, hope that will be helpful.
Cause 1: Face unlock is enabled on your phone.
• When the unlock mode is set to Direct unlock, message content will be hidden when the screen is locked in order to protect your privacy.
• When the unlock mode is set to Slide to unlock and Smart lock screen notifications is enabled, message contents will be hidden when the screen is locked in order to protect your privacy.
Solution:
If you wish to display message contents when using Face unlock:
• EMUI 8.X: Go to Settings > Security & privacy > Face unlock, enter the lock screen password, and disable Smart lock screen notifications.
• EMUI 9.0 and Magic UI 2.0.1: Go to Settings > Security & privacy > Face Unlock or Settings > Security & privacy > Face recognition, enter the lock screen password, and disable Smart lock screen notifications.
You can also set the unlock mode to Fingerprint ID or Password.
Cause 2: Show but hide contents is enabled.
Solution:
EMUI 8.X: Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Notifications management > Batch management > Lock screen notifications, and select Display all notifications.
EMUI 9.0, EMUI 9.0.1, and Magic UI 2.0.1: Go to Settings > Notifications > Lock screen notifications, and select Display all notifications.
Cause 3: Notifications turn on screen is not enabled when using Magazine unlock.
Solution:
To enable Apply:
EMUI 8.X/9.0/9.0.1: Go to Themes > Customize > Lock screen style, select Magazine unlock, and touch Apply.
Magic UI 2.0.1: Go to Themes > Customize > Lock screen style, select Magazine unlock, and touch Apply.
To enable Notifications turn on screen, go to:
Magic UI 2.0.1: Settings > Notifications > More notification settings > Notifications turn on screen
EMUI 9.0/9.0.1: Settings > Notifications > More notification settings > Notifications turn on screen
EMUI 8.X: Settings > Apps & notifications > Notifications & status bar
EMUI 5.X: Settings > Notifications & status bar.And enable Notifications turn on screen.
Cause 4: Lock screen notifications is not enabled for this app. Apps that do not have this feature enabled will not cause the screen to light up upon receiving a new message or notification.
Solution:
Go to:
Magic UI 2.0.1: Settings > Notifications > Notifications
EMUI 9.0/9.0.1: Settings > Notifications > Notifications
EMUI 8.X: Settings > Apps & notifications > Notifications management
EMUI 5.X: Settings > Notifications & status bar > Notifications management
Enable allow notifications and Lock screen notifications for apps as needed.
Cause 5: The message content has been hidden for the third-party app.
Solution:
Enable the app's notification switch to show message content.
If the issue remains unresolved, back up your data and restore your phone to factory settings.

Lock Screen Notifications

How to set up some app sensitive content and show others app notifications on lock screen? i cant find on settings.
It's a "little" hidden
System settings -> Apps & notifications -> Notifications -> Select app with recently shown notifications -> Select notification channel/type (e.g. Gmail - Email) -> Advanced -> change "on lock screen" behavior as desired
or
System settings -> Apps & notifications -> Select app from the list of all apps -> Notifications -> Select notification channel/type (e.g. Gmail - Email) -> Advanced -> change "on lock screen" behavior as desired
Clicking on the notification channel name is not very intuitive as there is already a checkbox.. Took me a while to realize that it offers two functions

What doesn't go where? [emoji846] You will need to be a little more specific.
I have a problem with the notification LED. When a missed SMS arrives or by mail, the LED lights up, but if I have a missed call, the LED is no longer lit. Is this an android bug?
