Can you share with us what the profile is specified to do exactly? the state, the task and such. post screenshots if you can too. Are you rooted? perhaps installing Secure Settings on the play store might help

I've made a few test profiles now that are supposed to blink both LED's when I receive any message or call.
I've attached the various test profiles I've made for them and I can't understand why they don't work.
And yes I am rooted
yeah...i used tapatalk...so?

It seems like everything is in order, it might be the "Wait" commands that are conflicting perhaps? try just telling it to notify you with TeslaLED and set the Strobe to very slow. That's how i have it set up for the past 2 weeks and works every time. Could possibly be that your using a 3rd party SMS app like GOSMS? I'm using the stock messaging app on my ROM...

you mean that i should just let tesla turn on when i get the message, and no wait command or anything?
and i'm using stock messaging app, but also whatsapp, viber, hangouts...all with that same setting.

SMS Alert not always sounding

Hey guys,
I have noticed, that sometimes my SMS alert doesn't always sound. Does this perhaps happen when you are in a conversation, and leave it open and jump right back to the home screen. Therefore the conversation is still "open" on the phone, and hence it doesn't sound? If I go back to my message widget, the new message shows up then.
Anyone else had this?
Go to aplications>mange aplications>all>sound set>clear data
And then set notification sound you like ... tell me if this helps you

Will give it a try
That's not fixed it.
Does it have something to do with the conversation still being open in the message app?
Are you on Android 2.2.1, software version 1.72?
There is a known issue with sms notifications on that version if you are. Best fix is using sms popup from the market to handle your notifications instead of the system app.

[Q] Send/receive SMS via computer ?

Hey guys,
I have SGS2, and I wonder if there is some application that will show me notification when I receive sms on my computer, and I should be able to reply to it from computer too ? I tried "Remote Notifier for Android" from market, and at first glance it looks really nice, but sms notifications doesnt work, and I cant reply to sms via computer aswell. Is there some other app which can do this ?
NOTE: I dont want web-service based apps, that require me to have service started on my phone and to connect through browser from my computer, I want standalone app that communicates with phone through wireless, just like Remote Notifier.
try MightyText.
not sure if it is out of beta yet but it does works. you just need to log in to your gmail account.

Confirming LuffyPSP.
MightyText works!

cool. glad it working out for ya.
Both of this apps require me to stay logged in browser in order to see notification when I receive sms

True. I guess it is because of the fact you can't 'push' that data to a pc. I believe there's an app needed (like the plugin for the MightyText app) to 'convert' that data to make it 'recognizable' (the data between pc and phone).
Notifications can't be pushed. Only the data itself.
So i believe, what you are looking for, doesn't exist (yet).
Can someone confirm?

i think yes, it does not exist yet. but many people satisfied with how MightyText works if you follow from the first Beta release. i think many people actually find this type is already convenient so far, instead of how you asked. maybe not yet. you can try PM the dev and state your suggestion/opinion maybe.
Remote Notifier for Android does the exact thing I need, except its stopped developing and some features dont work. I searched yesterday alot to find some similar app, but no success.
@LuffyPSP
I already discussed with one of colleagues, and will start developing it in next few days.
I think MyPhoneExplorer might be able to do what you ask. You might wanna give it a try!
Maybe it can, but MPE requries phone to be connected with USB

Can't use voice to reply to SMS or email?

Hi all,
So far everything has been working smoothly but I've run into one issue with the 360 that I can't figure out. When I try to reply to an SMS it seems to do nothing vs. asking for a voice response, and for email, it just opens the app on the phone with a reply message waiting to be typed in.
I had thought that you could use voice to respond? I'm using a Nexus 4 with CM11 M11, and Google Now API 1.4 through Xposed.
Anyone else having this issue?
Thanks,
Ben

I had the same issue when I first got mine. I found that replys are currently only supported using Hangouts for SMS and the actual Gmail app for email. The stock SMS/email apps only support viewing. Once I switched them over everything worked perfectly.

Well that's lame. It's just like how Google leaves out an easy way to get unread counts for non-Gmail accounts in the beginning. Hopefully they adjust this.

There are several third party apps able to do it, like 8sms.

Thanks, I'll have to look into that. I've also found WearMail which seems to handle emails better, but given the low review count and the fact that it's a closed source app which asks for login credentials, I'm going to hold off on it for a while.

[Q] Cyanogenmod 12 Stock App Issue

Hello everyone,
Relatively new Android user here. I've been running Cyanogenmod 12 Nightlies on my Sprint HTC One m8, and for some reason, I cannot seem to get the messaging or email apps to work properly.
When I set CM Messenger as my default texting app, I can receive messages just fine, but when I go to send, it's as if the sending button is disabled. From what I can tell, setting Messenger as the default texting app should enable the send button, but that's simply not the case for me. The only info I've been able to find online said that Voice + caused this problem, but I think that was specific to CM 11. I don't recognize any apps on my phone that would be the Android L equivalent of Voice +.
As for Email, whenever I try to connect my gmail account, I get a message saying that verification couldn't be completed because the password is wrong. After this, the app closes automatically, and upon reopening it, the app seems to be hung up on syncing but never actually does anything. I've tried linking my account both automatically and manually — both methods yield the same result.
The odd thing is that 3rd party messaging and email apps work just fine. I've been using them as a workaround, but I'd really like to use the stock apps if possible! And aside from that, I'm totally stumped and would really like to figure out what is causing this issue. Any insight you could provide would be very much appreciated!

Update: I got the email app to work — I had the sync parameter set to never because I like to manually retrieve my mail, but it seems like that completely stops the app from syncing at all. It's still a little buggy, but at least it's working. Still no fix yet for SMS app.....

Hello,
Thanks for your reply! I have been using a third party sms app for the time being, but I'd still really like to figure out what's causing this issue. Call me a glutton for punishment I've searched a lot on XDA for a specific cyanogenmod Q&A, but I'm new here, and I'm finding the search interface a bit confusing. Could you post a link to the specific thread you're referring to?

Galaxy Watch notifications for what's app

Hi Everyone,
Requesting some help for an issue that I am facing with my galaxy watch. Not able to receive ONLY what's app notifications on the watch. All other app notifications work fine ( Messages, emails, weather or any other app that gives me notifications ) works good.
1. Looked for all settings related to notifications on the phone and watch. All look fine unless I have missed out something important related to whats app.
2. Reset the gear watch but that didn't help either
3. Uninstalled and reinstalled what's app just to make sure but that didn't work too.
Running out of ideas and looking for suggestion please.
I expect you have checked the Galaxy Wearable settings menu entry notifications list of apps and found (or not found) the What's app ?

Hi,
Yes, I have selected all apps in notifications and still same issue. I just also noticed that it doesn't work for Facebook notifications too, not too sure if that helps but thought of mentioning it. I have tried all settings possible on the watch and the phone, reset the watch but unfortunately it didn't work.
Working notifications :- Messages, Emails, weather, calls, alarms
Non working :- Facebook, whats app and some other 3rd party apps. I understand that some 3rd party apps may not have native support but ya, thats my current status.
Thank you for trying to help and please suggest if any other idea.

I assume that you do get notifications on your phone for the apps in question - otherwise, you have to adjust the setting for those.

Hi,
I had enabled them on the phone but the same issue. Thank you for your time though. Something completely unexpected at least for me that helped me resolve the issue and frankly I don't understand how. So here is how it worked, I am currently travelling and purchased a SIM that I inserted in the primary slot of my phone and the default SIM I always use is in the secondary. I swapped and that resolved my issue. I don't even know if that is related and I should have known about it but thankfully helped me end my worries and some ridiculous amount of time I spent resolving it.
Thank you again. You have a good one !
