Google Voice Peek Notification issue - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Apologize if this is a duplicate. Search did not bring back the info I was looking for.
Having the problem with Google voice text. I want to disable the peek notifications while the phone is on. So I'm not interrupted doing other things.
I have set all the settings to make noise only, but i still get the peek notification when a text is received.
I did notice that on the HUD when you swipe the notification and click on the settings icon for the notification, the Uncategorized section in the notification area for the google voice app flashes to focus attention.
I double checked on my Essential Ph-1 the uncategorized section can be set to Allow sound, but on my S9+ there is not a setting in this category for sound only. Just let app decide. If i turn sound off for the categorized section then I do not get GV text message notifications.
To clarify what I want to do is suppress the peek notifications for GV text messages while the phone is on, but allow a sound to play.
Weird that my Ph-1 would allow this but the S9+ does not even allow the change of the setting.

[Q] How to turn off email vibration alert?

Every email I get, I have a small vibration alert.
I only wants an alert on the notification bar, without any sound or vibration.
I managed to set the sound to Silent, but I can't find any settings to avoid the vibration.
This option is freaking me out.
I got dozens of emails every day - each one the phone vibrates.
Am I the only one?!
I'm sure your not dude.
In the settings/sound did you untick "Sound and vibration"?
I have found a work around temporarily before they update the software with a more discrete management of vibration in different notifications.
Under settings - sounds - vibration intensity you can set the notification vibration to nil.
I primarily use this for it to only vibrate when phone call comes and all other notification i only want sound and no vibration.
You should be able to do this by opening up your email application> settings> select your desired email account> you should now be able to adjust your email notification settings from the available options.
Hope this helps

[Q] Separate notification sound for text message?

I hate that every notification except email has the same sound. How can I change so that text messages have their own notification? Right now text messages and all other random notifications share the same ringtone so I never know if I got a text message or something else.

It doesn't work. If you change it, it changes it for all notifications. Not just texts.
I just figured it out.

I had been looking for this setting for days now and I just stumbled upon it. When you are editing a contact go to the bottom of the contacts information and hit the "ADD ANOTHER FIELD" button. There you will see the ability to add the "Message Tone" field as well as specify a "Vibration Pattern" if wanted. Not sure why they didn't put the Message Tone option on the contact by default.

Mind blow.
Dude, just set any ringtone for notifications via phone settings - it'l be your sms ringtone AND for any other applications having opportunity to create notifications you should open those applications, go their settings and find there option notifications and change notifications sound directly for that application. Logic!
Binrob, I get what you are after because I did a google search for the very same thing. No one here seems to get it.
What happens is all these other apps utilize the same NOTIFICATION sound as your text messages (like Facebook, or playing back-and-forth board games). Binrob and the rest of us want our TEXT messages TO BE DIFFERENT sounding than all the others. I don't want to look at my phone every time i get a notification, but i do want to look at my phone every time someone texts me. There doesn't seem to be a way to customize SMS/TEXT to its own notification sound. Android needs to fix this.
You've answered everyone's question! This should show up #1 on Google search!

Has there been updates since to change to separate notification for all contacts?
I get this issue and NEED them to fix as well! I don't want fb messenger and text messaging and any other notification to have the same sound. I want to know what app the notification is for WITHOUT unlocking and looking at my phone. Also, on my s5 I was able to change my led color for specific apps. If it blinking red I knew it was a text. Blinking green fb message. Blinking blue fb notification. Etc! Please add those back!
You CAN set the sound for messages, go to settings, notifications, advanced ......... choose messages, more settings (at the bottom of the screen), and the next screen is where you change the sound that is made. Not exactly user friendly though!
I think the answer is as simple.as: go to your message app, top right hit: more, Then go to settings and set whatever ringtone you want to have under notifications. I guess this should be what you are looking for.

notificaton tone in message+
The comment that you can set message tones In contacts is correct except that apps like message+ , at least on the Galaxy , ignore that and use their own tones
I just found it....
open messages on the right top corner click there and pick customize ando under tones and there u can pick whatever ringtone for only SMS....
FOR SAMSUNG S9/S9+. To have a specific sound for you messages, go to messaging app/setting/notifications/general notications must be off/emergency alerts must be off. Go to new messages and choose your preferred sounds.

Notification questions

I'm new to the Samsung phones and can't seem to get notifications to show up on my lockscreen or get the led to flash. I know you have to set this up per app in settings but I can't seem to find an option that allows for this with notification sound turned off. I'm especially having issues with Twitter and Gmail.
TIA for the help.
If your profile is "silent" or "vibrate", the notification sound won't come out.

emergency alert notifications

Hi,
I have a call to inform about earthquakes (Yurekuru Call). It will display a popup with time until the earthquake approaches. It is very precise most of the times.
Still I like to keep wireless emergency alerts for redundancy, in case something is not working in the above app.
Unfortunately the emergency alerts notifications popup removes the apps notification and has always priority it seems.
This makes the apps alerts useless.
I see in the systems settings there is an option to "Turn on notifications". But I'm not sure what it means as I couldn't find any explanation.
Will this deactivate the emergency alerts completely or will it just disable the popover?
Is there a way to disable the popover but keep notifications so that in case my app misbehaves I have those at least?
Or can I set the priority for the emergency alerts popover somewhere so the apps popover has higher priority?
Thanks!

Do the emergency alert popups qualify as notifications? I don't think so. I can't find them in the recent notifications list.
@DarsVaeda
You're absolutely right: a popup is a non-fullscreen window shown on top of Android's screen, whereas a notification is shown in Android's notification bar
A popup and a notification are 2 totally different things.
I think you want instead of a popup a notification sent what only can be realized by emergency app's developer.

You got that wrong a bit. I want the emergency alerts to be a notification. I want the app to keep the popup.

Hi @rinnycoop121,
First and foremost, are you certain that all of your vibration settings are correctly set?
First, check all of the following sections within settings:
Sounds & Vibration (Vibration & Silent)
Make sure that "Vibration" is on
Sounds & Vibration (Sound Effects and Modes)
Make sure that "Default notification sound" is set to a sound you can adequately hear
System > Accessibility (Vibration & haptic strength)
Make sure that it is on for "Notification vibration"
Then, for each app you wish to change the notification settings for, do the following::
Go into the "App info" (Settings) of the app, select "Notifications", and then make sure everything you want is checked.
You would do the same thing for every other app where you want notifications to appear.
If the previous procedures did not solve your issue, there is an external app that you may utilize. "BuzzKill," which specializes in notification automation, is the one I'm most acquainted with. According to the Google Play store, BuzzKill "allows you to see the notifications you want to see when you want to see them and filter out those you don't". I suppose "BuzzKill" may be the answer you're looking for to solve your notification issue.
