[BLACK SATIN]: E-Mail Notifications

Hi,
When I receive a new E-Mail via Active Sync, I can hear the message sound but display doesn't turn on and no notification is showed.
How I can solve it?
Regards,

check your settings its probably set not to display on the today screen pretty easy
does anyone know how to do this for when you send a text message. you hear a sound but no display notification. thanks
If you're referring to the setting for new emails at Start > Settings > Sounds and Notifications > Notifications, there is nothing there that would affect what I believe the OP is referring to.
I take that back. You can check a box to have a message shown on the display, but not to turn on the display.
I'm running Black Satin, as well, and when I receive an email, I get the sound notification, the status LED notification, and the message on the display, but it will not wake the device up out of standby and turn on the display. I'm not complaining, however, because this is the behavior I desire.
To contrast this, the receipt of a text message will do all of the above, and also wake up the phone and turn on the display. This often results in buttons pushed and programs launched as I take the phone out of my pocket.
I have seen nowhere to control that aspect of notifications.

[Q] No text alert....

When I am in a text conversation my dinc will not sound an alert if I leave the conversation open. I only get a new alert sound if I close the coversation. Does anyone know how to change this so that I get an alert? Is this suppose to be this way? Is this a bug?
Mine is the same way, so I just got used to exiting out of the conversation. If there is a fix that would be sweet!!
Its that way because its like being in a chat with someone. Why would you need it to make a sound if your looking right at the screen in the middle of a chat? I'm sure way more people would complain if it was like that.
I think if you just turn the screen off on your phone it will make a sound even if you dont exit out.
I would not want it to make a sound if im staring right at the screen talking back and fourth with someone. The only timei would want it to make a sound is if i wasnt in conversation and needed to be alerted that someone texted me or if my screen was off. Wich is exactly how it works.
Just me
I do agree that I wouldn't want an alert every time if I was staring at the screen through the whole conversation.
even if I turn the screen off it doesn't give an alert. That would be a good solution.
But, the best thing for me would be if there was a toggle to make it alert me every time, as I usually don't stay still and text very often. I will send a text and set the phone down, or put in pocket, or holster...then continue what I was doing until I hear an alert. That is what works for me.
the issue is when I don't back out of the text app and start doing something else and I receive a text from that same person, it won't sound an alert. Screen on or off.
I'm definitely not trying to say that the app or the phone sucks. Just asking if there was a way to alleviate the issue I am describing. Or maybe there was an app, or a rom that might do what I am talking about .
******edit....just did a test. Tonight my dinc would alert me if the screen was off, and I left the conversation open. I'm pretty sure it didn't do this before. Or at least at times it wouldn't do this. Maybe it didn't alert me before because the other person actually responded before the screen turned off...or maybe I just didn't hear it...lol...either way, for my purpose it would be nice for my purposes if there was a toggle to change this.
Thanks,
Jon

I had the same issue before if I left the conversation open and the screen was off and it wouldn't alert me at all. I haven't checked this out as of recent because I got so used to just going to the home screen after I sent a text. I'll check and see if it works now.
this "problem" has every now then started very minor communication arguments with the gf. it sometimes makes me look like a damn fool.

[Q] Notification light issues - can't tell what the notification is

Is there an app that will show me a list or log of apps that have triggered the home button notification light? Also, is there a list of what colors/flash patterns belong to which types of notifications? Rooting is not an option until my one year warranty is up and that's several months away.
Sometimes when I get a notification I'll go see what it is and clear it. The home button light stops flashing but then when Iput my phone to sleep the notification light will start blinking again. When I wake it up there's nothing in notifications and the home button stops blinking again but then it starts again when it goes to sleep. I've tried disabling different apps and have found what some of the notifications are but not all of them.
My wife and I use ICQ to chat since we've been on it so long and sometimes the phone tells me there's a new message when there's not. ICQ does a fast red flash on the home button so when I see it I have to open ICQ again and go to the chat a second time then back out all the way to clear it. That's not too bad because it's got a unique color and flash pattern so I know what it is.
Sometimes it's a blue light with a slower flash rate. I think that's for email but not sure since it's probably used by more than one app.
The one I can't figure out is a slow green flash. I've tried everything I can think of including force-closing every app and nothing makes it go away. Even rebooting doesn't fix it. It makes it impossible to tell if I actually have a notification unless the notification has a different color and flash pattern.
If there's an app or a way to see a notification history it would help me figure out why it's doing this.

Swipe down from the top of the screen to pull down notifications. The colors are usually set by each app in their respective notification settings. There's apps on the play store that can also help set colors but I think you need root. It's not hard to root and unroot though just don't unlock the bootloader.

Yeah, that's what I explained in my post. When I unlock my phone the home button LED turns off and when I swipe down to see notifications there are none, but as soon as I lock my phone it starts blinking again.
I just went through most of my apps and most have no options at all for the notify light. The only one that does is Facebook but the only option is for on/off and no option for the color. ICQ, GMail, and Outlook.com only lets me choose sound and vibrate. I don't think I've ever seen an app with options to select the color of the home button LED.

How to turn odd event notifications on lock screen?

So, While my tab pro is asleep, if there is an event that I get a notification for the screen goes on and there is a full page notification for the event allowing me to snooze it.
My question is, where is that notification coming from and how can I disable it? I can't tell you how many times I go to get my tab while it is charging and realize the thing has been on (including screen) for a really really long time!

[Q] Mute notifications when phone screen is on

Hi,
I'd like to find a way to mute notifications on my watch when I use my phone (= phone screen is on). It's really annoying when I hold a conversation on Facebook Messenger and every time I receive a message my watch vibrates...
I tried Feel The Wear in a free version - I can set a behaviour, when the phone screen is on, but... it doesn't work. Well, to be precise - when e. g. I set 3 x long pattern for an app and the above option is set to "vibrate", then I'll receive notification with 3 x long and... an extra short vibrate in the meantime. When I change the option to "mute" - there are no 3 x long vibrates, but... still is the short one. I have no idea what's going on with that additional short vibrate - it's not set anywhere...
Another problem with Feel The Wear - it doesn't work with custom patterns in Wear Messages app. I just can't mute that app in any way, its vibrate pattterns override FTW settings.
I tried to use MacroDroid and enabling "do not disturb" mode when screen is on and disabling when it's off. It seemed to be the solution, but... when watch is charging, my phone doesn't vibrate (even though the "don't disturb" is off then).
I have really no idea what else I can try. Do you have any idea wtf with that extra short vibration when using FTW? Do you know if the paid version has any option that would help? Any other ideas what to do with that problem?
I have MiBand 2 also and it doesn't have such problems, it automatically mutes when phone screen is on...
PS I use SW3 with Note 4, 6.0.1.
PS2 In Android Wear app the option "mute phone when wearing watch" is enabled.
