@Poppysmum The sounds volume also has to be turned up in settings...I made this mistake myself when I recorded a video...gutted to find when I played back there was no sound at all...(DUH me)

When I moved the sound slider for media to naximum...the band then played beautifully on the video recording

I felt a real berk....

If its the same as mine you don't get any notification sounds if the phone is unlocked and in your hands.

Media and notifications are not linked on Samsung phones.

I think we are talking at cross purposes @MI5. I was talking about these settings in Sound and Notifications

On my Samsung Note 3

This is what I meant when telling @Poppysmum that they can slide back to off... (and was using Media as an example of my own stupidity in November)

Not crossed at all.
I was just pointing out that media and notification volume is separate as your image shows.

Of course they are...and I wasn't inferring anything different. Just using media as an example of my stupidity..at the time...but hey ho....

@Poppysmum always some random conversation going on in Off Topic so your never short of a conversation around here!

Ugh I hate it when a new phone doesn't have the old notification sounds

exactly that yesterday - used alarm on new phone for first time. Didn't realise volume for alarm was set when alarm is set, so missed it. Nearly fell out of bed/hit the ceiling in shock when it went off.

Swiftly followed by a reprimand from the wife for waking her up too!!

Not bickering @Poppysmum...Just the Chief Wizard giving the Sorcerors Apprentice a lesson or three.... (Which I happily take on board...I live to learn...lol x)
