Hi All,
I installed lollipop last night on my S5 and can someone tell me where the heckers my silent mode has gone?! If anyone can advise how to make my phone silent but still night light notifications it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Sadly the mute button has gone and as said, the only option now is the notification choice or putting into flight mode at night.. It's a shame that such a simple function has been removed.

Hi @hellynewman
I haven't got Lollipop but did find this article about silent mode. I hope it helps..

I think others have complained about the 'silent mode' on the S5 update. I think this is a Samsung thing though, and how they have integrated it into their user interface.
@hellynewman what exactly do you want it to do in silent mode in terms of notifications? I mean do you want it to vibrate, to only alert you to wake-up alarms, alert you to certain notifications etc? There are ways to get lollipop to do it on my Nexus 5, so if you tell me what you need i might be able to help...

Hi Phill,
Thanls for the reply! Basically, i would like a silent mode whereby there is no noise or vilbration whatsoever unless i set an alarm) but i would still like LED notifications to tell me when i have a message or missed call. Basically i sit in an open plan office with my phone on my desk so don't want any sound but want an alert when something comes through!

On my Nexus 5 when i adjust the volume up or down fromt he home screen, underneath the volume bar I get the choice to set notifications to 'None' 'Priority' or 'All'. Do you get that?

Yes...most of that relating to Priority is included in the link I provided..... it gives you three choices of how to set it ...to allow through what you specifically want
