Is there a known way to cache and store incoming toast notifications? I'm thinking of an app that does exactly that so the user is able to review all notifications later.
No unfortunately. There's no access in the phone sdk to incoming toast messages for the phone - even for your own app unless it's running at the time (in which case you can intercept them using the ShellToastNotificationReceived event).
You can do it for your own app using a server based solution - i.e. record the sent messages somewhere like a database and then let the user download their toast message history via a web service or similar.

I have been using this app and wanted to turn everyone else on to it. This app keeps your text messages synced in the cloud and enables you to be able to send and receive text message on your computer. If I send a text from my phone, it still shows up on my computer and vice versa. It is really nice to have my phone on the charger, and while I'm using my computer I can read and respond to my text messages without having to ever go get my phone. And best of all......IT'S FREE. Check it out.

Looks a lot like Google Voice SMS.
Also another app called AirDroid lets you text through your computer browser

Correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not 100% certain) but isn't Google Voice SMS just a sms scheduling app? This app I posted about actually uses your existing cell phone number and lets you text business as usual from the phone but the texts stay in sync in the cloud, and gives you access to them (send, receive, compose, etc) from the computer.

What I like about this one is that you can use the browser but you don't have to. They also have a windows and a mac app too. I prefer to use the windows app so that I don't have to keep the tab open with that site. Also with the windows app even after a reboot I still get my messages on the computer.

Oh that windows app sounds nice.. Thanks for the info gonna check it out
I used deskSMS
It is similar to mysms, and it is free, but you can use it only through browser.

Yeah I saw a few browser based ones. What got my attention about this one is that it actually has a windows app that I could install to my computer. That's cool because when I boot up my computer I'm able to handle my text messages without having to do anything. The only complaint I have about it so far is that there are no audible text message alerts during a call (just like the stock sms app).
Today I've noticed it doesn't sync the existing mms messages. But it will sync mms messages that come in after you install the app.

Google voice sends text messages via the google voice phone number.
A friend of mine was using MyPhoneExplorer. It is only for Windows, so i didn't try it. But he told me that the app has a notification system integrated, and you can also answer a call through the pc.
is there additional battery drain with this since it is syncing your texts to the cloud?
Thats one reason why i switched from GV to my regular number, the reliance on data to send texts got annoying with low signal and also drained battery
I think voice typing is better
Outbound, the server can send any phone number but I don't know how it can receive without the phone being on.
The messages can be sent out via a phone or browser but the phone is the key in receiving since the number is physically ported through the carriers to your cell.
So your phone receives the messages and uploads it to the server for viewing everywhere.
Neat. Would be cool using on my tablet.

Great for those who constantly flash roms, like me lol

Thanks for letting us know, a friend of mine might find this very useful. They always thought it was cool that I could send and receive SMS messages from my Google Voice Chrome extension (or the web page, obviously) and they'd always get frustrated when they'd forget to use one of the sms to sd backup apps before flashing a new ROM, but I could never convince them to use Google Voice because they didn't want to switch to a new phone number.
Are there be any possible privacy issues with storing your SMS logs on this companies servers?
how to send contact via sms, event the stock sms also can not send this kind of thing, maybe Google is missing some thing, isn't it??
will it restore my messages from the cloud to the phone?

Is there a way to get yahoo messenger to make popups the way small does?
I currently use the official yahoo messenger for mobile, and when receiving a message, it appears in the notification bar and I have to back out of whatever app I'm using to reply to the message.
I would love for the messages to popup in the way sms messages popup on top of apps, so I can just reply quickly and resume whatever it was I was doing.
I'm open to using an alternate yahoo messenger if it has this feature.
And this isn't available, perhaps it would be a good idea for a developer to make.

i dont use any messenger apps but you say it pops up in your notification bar, why cant you just pull it down and click on it then hit back when your done to resume what you were doing... or am i just missing your point
I used Private Place sms mms call log privacy app for a while, & it worked fairly well. Unfortunately, it causes the N4 to become unusable, regardless of what rom I use. Are there any other alternative apps anyone has successfully used on this phone to keep private sms, mms, & phone calls? Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm actually looking for a different type of privacy. Like where you can have texts & phone calls from specified contacts automatically hidden, so you have to enter a secure app area in order to access the messages or answer the phone call, etc.

I know you can enter a number as spam using the messaging app. It will block the notification of the text but you will still receive it. It will just be in your spam folder. Which is "hidden"

I was looking at that, just wasn't sure if maybe the number was reported as spam elsewhere. I will give it a try, thanks.

Not a problem! ?
Does anyone know how to disable the popup warning message that comes up when you click on an SMS link? It's very annoying.
Thanks!
Block notifications
Hi Matrix 23x,
Have you tried going to settings – sound and notifications – application notifications – choose the application – block notifications “on”?
That should stop notifications for that app completely, but you'll have to decide if that works for you. I don’t see anywhere to choose which notifications to block and which to keep, unfortunately.
Thanks for the response, however I don't want to block SMS notifications. I want to stop having to click "OK" confirming that the link to the SMS I receive is safe for me to view. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!
Same sms warning problem
This started for me 2 updates ago. In the 5, you could fix it in sms settings...with the 6, you cant. Ive tried other apps and it doesnt happen...only the default install. (Which I like)
Every time I receive a group message when Roaming I have to click 'Download' and wait for the message to download before viewing it. This is quite painful when in a large group text.
I use Google Messages as my default Messaging App on my AT&T Note 5. I have enabled 'Roaming auto-retrieve' under Advanced settings but that doesn't seem to have any effect on weather the MMS/Group Message is downloaded automatically or not.
Anyone else have a similar issue? Am I missing something?
Thanks
May want to throw this in the Q&A troubleshooting section.
Have you tried a different messaging app? It would be good to see if this is a blanket issue across apps or not to help determine if app specific problem or system/phone problem.
Have you tried with the setting disabled?
Sorry for the late response.
Looks like a bug with Google Messenger (the setting doesn't make a difference whether it's enabled or disabled). When using the Samsung Messaging App the messages are downloaded automatically.
Thanks
