Is there any way for Zooper to pull the time of active alarms in Timely? I can only seem to pull the stock alarms, but I never use the stock alarm app.
I suppose I could mess around with tasker and have tasker pull the timely alarms and set the stock alarm to match, and vice versa but that seems a little convoluted.

If Timely doesn't use Android's native alarm settings, you'll have to go through Tasker. Only the alarms reported by the system are currently supported in Zooper.

Thanks for the response duder. You know if there's timely extension for tasker? I'm not pulling it up on the big list of plugins.
Seeing as its one of the most popular apps on Play for one of the most often functions of a smartphone that it'd make a great addition to the short list of Zooper's app integration priority!

After a quick search it seems like there is no plugin available. Might be that even the mighty Tasker is not able to get the alarm settings out of Timely.
I can't speak for the Zooper devs but judging from their development focus up to now, I don't think extended app integration is a priority. Especially, if those apps don't provide any way to actually get the data as it seems to be the case with Timely.

Im not sure if this just isnt part of the OS yet but is there any app other than the email & text messaging apps that use push notifications? anyone know if its something that is directly related to multitasking or is it just a feature that was left out due to time constraints? I've tried looking up this info but havent had any luck. Thanks in advance for any info.
I don't know if there is an app that uses "push" right now but I believe 3rd part apps e.g. weather or other apps can use "push" if they want to.
I don't think there are any at the moment but someone will probably create one.
i have seen two. pageonce and i belive the weather channel's app does as well. i think it does at least....it updates the weather on the home tile every 4 hours...without launching the app...so i could assuming its using notifcations. but pageonce for sure uses it, i've been getting my notifications often.
yes 1st, 2nd, 3rd party apps can use push notification,There are a few apps out there weatherbug is anohter.. I have an app that uses push as well its going through the process now to be added to the marketplace.. it send you push alerts when you fav. tv show is about to air.
I just switched to the one x from iphone 4, but the notification system seems to be a lot worse, there isn't even a notifications setting in settings and I'm not getting notified of draw something moves?
is there a fix to that?
You should have seen the old ios notification lol. I am sure there is a way to fix drawsomething notification. Is it an app problem?
There should be no problems with other stuff such as emails , whatsapp, viber etc which I am using.
Btw, coming from ios, you will have much to learn and you will like android. Unless you just want a dumbed down fuss free experience. Hehe

DrawSomething currently has no notifications. However there is a big update planned soon which will include notifications. See here http://phandroid.com/2012/03/25/draw-something-soon-to-receive-a-substantial-update/
I really do like android, this is just one little drawback
facebook and skype don't seem to have notifications either, i'd expect there to be a menu in settings just like iOS where you can customize which apps you want to have notifications or not?

Notification settings are usually contained within the app itself, rather than a global setting. Skype and Facebook have settings for Notifications.
As above, each individual app has notification settings within the settings of the app.

As others have said each individual app tends to have notification settings that you set up personally. There are some global notifications for email, SMS, missed calls that will flash the LED light located under "Display & gestures > Notification flash".
I'm also having problems with Facebook for Android and FB Messenger. I have notifications enabled and set up correctly, yet I'm not receiving anything for them. Also, Draw Something now has the ability for Android notifications, but each time I try to enable it, I get told they're not supported by my phone.
Hi, i think the title says it all
im new in this NFC thing, recieved my tags yesterday and i spend the day playing with it!
but i have one question / problem and i dont know if its possible, i want to enable the alarm, but the alarms i already had programed in my clock,
but i can only create new alarms.
i tryed dozens of nfc apps in playstore, and all have the same function to alarm, they add a new one instead of enabling the existing ones..
any workaround for this ?
thanks
The reason for this is that pretty much all alarm apps (including stock) allow for multiple alarms, so if you tap a tag that is just supposed to turn your alarm on, it wouldn't know which one. The Samsung Tectile app kinda has a work around - you set up an alarm within the app, then you can create a tag to just turn on, turn off, or toggle that one alarm in the app. Of course, this is dependent upon you having a phone that the Samsung Tectile app is compatible with and also having 1K tags because their app uses more memory for a simple task than any other NFC app out there.
That's the only nfc app I know of that has a feature kinda like what you are wanting to do. Hope that helps.

The reason for this is that most apps use the ALARM intent to set alarms. Some apps (like the stock AOSP clock package) identify duplicate alarms and enable them rather than creating new alarms. Others (like HTC and Samsung's clock packages) create a new alarm every time.
To get around this you could try operating directly on the alarms databases (assuming they are exposed via a content resolver and there's a listener to pick up the changes).
Would just turning alarm volume up or down to mute accomplish what you want?

So I was wondering if there is a way to set a variable to something, then change it dynamically based on an event. Here is an example of an end goal with what I mean. So you make a widget that shows the forecast and all items have some form of
[bo]$#TMU_ISPLAYING#=1?0:100$[/bo]
To hide if media is playing (when combined with media utilities). I would like to take this a bit further and say, if I have that same widget, a forecast widget and down in the corner is an icon, by clicking that icon(the event) it changes the value of a variable in zooper, and the widget can change based on that. Much like with the TMU_ISPLAYING, except with this, your click changes the variable and not an outside app. Does anyone know if this is possible at all, even just a very random workaround solution would be cool, I just want to be able to change a widget based on a click. Thanks in advance.

This is possible with Tasker. Zooper has a built-in Tasker plugin so you can send data from Tasker to Zooper and I have used it for the same thing you are trying to do. If you are used to work with Tasker it's really easy to setup but if you are new to Tasker, it might take you a bit to figure it out. Here is a link on how this generally works: http://www.jagwar.de/en/zooper-tasker-variables/. To get you started, you can find my task here. To use Tasker tasks from Zooper, you set them as a Module OnTap action via the Tasker shortcut action.
Hope this helps you out enough to get you going
Everyone including myself has the issue where once a day my phone stops getting notifications on my phone. It seems to be pretty wide spread but at the same time, some people don't have the issue at all. Which makes me think maybe it's a 3rd party app killing notification. So anyone who has the notification issue list all of your apps and maybe we will find one we all have in common.
To make this easy grab the app "List my apps" from the app store and edit the plain text template to remove the package name and just give you nice list of apps you can copy and paste .

Ok seeing how nobody is responding to my thread let me ask everyone this
How many people with the notification issue are running facer?
When I started having notification issues this was my app list:
- iHeartRadio
- Calculator
- UP by Jawbone
- Whoopee Wear
- Weather WatchFace
- Specialized WatchFace
- Planets WatchFace
- Swing by Swing Golf Scorecard
I then uninstalled all watchface apps and apps I don't use and reset Android Wear and the watch:
- iHeartRadio
- Calculator
- UP by Jawbone
- Whoopee Wear

Thanks for responding. But I Recommend you give a full android application list. Because other applications do push notifications such as Textra.
does acDisplay install on Android Wear? because i only listed my watch apps - which is where the problem is. The watch. Not the phone. At least not in my case.
In my case, the watch was receiving notifications, but wasn't alerting me of them.

I think this is why people wont respond because there are simply too many apps. Each person on here probably has 20-50 that are completely different from the next person. It would take a monumental effort to find a commonality between devices, something that should be Google's responsibility. It will simply be too difficult to filter through all the different apps people are using amongst each other.
The best attempt at self-diagnosis would be to just run your phone in a vanilla state and progressively installs apps one after the other over a period of several days to see if you can break the watch, then you would know which app is causing it. For instance the only apps I have really pushing notifications are Gmail, Google Messenger, and Exchange email. However even then, by just having Gmail connected I am going to get other things like Calendar updates, ToDo reminders, etc. Some things we may not even be able to disable so we'll never know where the culprit is.
Ultimately it shouldnt really be any of the apps since everything worked fine before the damn update to 5.x. Anyone know if it's possible to downgrade to 4.x?

If people would post using the app I mentioned above. I'll sort through and find a common denominator.
