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 searched for a solution for this and I hope this has not been covered. I bought my wife a 3g slide and she loves it...I think it its pretty cool too...but here is my issue she has only her T-Mobile contacts visible and they are all synced w/ Facebook. But when she uses the messaging app ALL of her Facebook friends that included a number on their info become click-able...very annoying!
Is there a way to tun this off without losing the functionality of having the phone contacts synced...? Said another way her contact app works great b/c the FB contacts are hidden (there is an option to only show certain contacts) ....but when using the messaging app they are ALL visible there is NO option to only show certain contacts.
Any advice would be appreciated...I am a WinMo guy and this is out of my wheel house.
Go into contacts and hit menu...view and it'll give you a list of contact groups to show/hide...

I have already done that...I think you misunderstood my question. The issue is not with the contact app...I have the unwanted contacts hidden there. The problem is when I tap try to compose a new text meassgae...then it displays ALL the Facebook contacts....maybe there is no way to hid them on the messaging app?
Edit: I guess it it is not problem to initiate a new text message from the contact app...but it would be nice if there was a away to hide the FB contacts in the MESSAGING app...

As far as I know the only way to do such a thing would be to disable Facebook contact sync.

That is what I thought...no big deal...if anyone know a way let me know.
yeah. thats the just of it.
ive had this problem on nonsense, and cyan6, and im sure im just over looking something.
when I get a text message, in my notification area, not only do I get the text, I get an additional message, stating the above. And my text message icon remains until i click the "new sms" message also, so annoying.
I can not find a setting, to let the regular text come through and alert me, and have the "new sms" message go away.
anyone wanna share some love with me?
i searched Q&A for a lil bit, but it seems like its just me maybe?
Thanks, anyone out there.
Are you using the stock Messenger or another one? Sounds like it might be Notifications turned on for different Messenger Apps.
I have no other messaging apps installed whatsoever, just the stock Messaging app.
And, to add on, the notification ICON i get, is a envelope style icon, instead of the standard Text message icon.
and when i click the "new SMS" notification, it just takes me to the stock messaging app / list view of messages.
SOLVED
****. It was coming from the app "Block SMS"
All it does, is auto-delete texts from certain numbers as soon as they come in, but there are no settings at all for alerts.
It doesn't even alert for anything else. JUST for new messages.
Thanks anyone for reading!
I have handcent (which I prefer to the standard HTC text) but whenever I receive a text I get alerts for both the HTC text AND Handcent. So I have to open them both in order to clear the notification bar. I've been looking for ages to find a way of disabling the HTC text but can't find anything.
Also I have a virtually identical problem with emails. whenever I receive email to my Gmail account, I receive two notifications, one for Googlemail and one for Mail. Again, I have to open them both in order to clear the notification bar.
Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

you don't need to open the message, just scroll down (pull down) the notification bar and on the top right it should say "Clear" and that will get rid of any notifications you have got exept for music when its playing or any other program you've got running that has an icon on the notification bar..
hope this helps!

Switch off notifications in the "Messages" app (within app untick Menu->Settings->Received Notification")
Switch off notifications in one of "Gmail" or "Mail" (similarly can be done via settings in Gmail/Mail.)

Thanks for that, I have actually done so but I still have a problem when receiving texts. When a text comes in, I'm presented with the text displayed in the stock messaging box, I have to close that and open handcent to reply - which is quite annoying.
Any thoughts?

This is the answer because that's exactly what myself and many others have done. I can tell you that it works.
You must have unchecked the wrong options.

When you say the "stock messaging box", are you referring to the HTC widget? If so, you need to remove this. Also, have you ticked "Enable popup" in Handcent's notification settings?

Hi all. I've loved the info and resources from the site but finally ran into a problem I cant figure out on my own. I get a white envelope in my notification bar for every text message that says "New Notification: Unread Messages" that doesnt take me anywhere when I click it and disabling it under the stock sms app doesnt do anything. It randomly started popping up with my Handcent notification today and wont go away. It only goes away when I clean notifications but pops up again as a second icon when I get a new text. It even plays the ringtone.
Help?
Simple fix...you need to disable the notification for your stock messaging app..open up the stock htc messaging app and go to the settings and disable receive notification... You are now using handcent so you do not need both app notifying you of new messages.
Once you disable recv notification in the stock app you should be good to go.

Thank you for the quick reply.
I already did that option since I've had my Inc since launch and Handcent just as long. This is a recent issue even with the stock Messager app disabled
Sorry I found the culprit. It was the beautiful widgets SMS widget. I had no idea it affected SMS even if the widget wasnt applied
Feel I'm missing some setting.
I can read sms's either in popup or notification drop-down and swipe away, BUT it keeps coming back. Not a heavy sms user but it annoys that the only way to get rid of it is to open messaging app and open sms there. I'm not in the humour now for trying 3rd party app as my sms use is small.
thanks:fingers-crossed:
Yes because you didnt open it
