i just rooted my Evo to 2.2 (thanks Netarchy!!!) and with the updated radio and WiMax... when ever im using the phone and i recieve a text, my text notification will come in as if im not using the phone. what can i do to fix the problem so far i tried everything i can think of
as far as I know, you could have always received texts while in a call.. I know I have...
how is this a problem? and its normal as far as i know.
i dont think the op is talking about how the text comes in while on a call but how when it comes in on froyo whatever sound you have set for a notification plays too
it wasnt like that before.

sorry for the hazy explanation but he's correct. before i rooted to froyo my notification sound was a transformer's notification, and while in call the text would come in as a default notification (titled "little"). now after root everything is set up the same, when i am on a call and a text comes through, the transformer's notification comes in rather the default.
has anyone else notice this phenomenon?

the notification settings are in two different places. you can do the standard menu-settings-sound/notification for default or you can open the messaging app and goto settings/notifications for more customization. each have different options, the one you are talking about is in the messaging app i believe.
I have, it vibrates next to my ear, kinda annoying. just glad i get some kind of notification unlike before

i know about both notifications in the settings/message app. its to the point that i cant even hear what the other person is saying because my text notification comes in when i receive one. never had to worry about that before rooting to froyo.
I don't think it's an issue with rooted vs non rooted. I downloaded froyo on tuesday via update on phone. I have not rooted my copy. If I am on a call, and a text comes in, it plays my text alert music through the ear piece while on my call and I can't hear the person on the phone at all. God help me if it is on speaker phone, it breaks up and such...
menu, settings, sound, volume, uncheck use incoming call volume then slide the notification volume down a bit. Not sure if this will work for you but it seems to have reduced it quite a bit for me.
EXACTLY! wasnt like that before with 2.1 im so happy that im not going crazy about it, any ideas on how to solve it?
anyone with thoughts?
any body???
its become quite annoying, and its definitely a 2.2 vs. 2.1 issue rather than a rooted vs.nonrooted issue, wish i could figure out a way to fix it
theres an app on the market called handcent which solves the problem. downside is that it runs a bit laggy at leas on my phone but better than whats been going on
i use handcent. in the settings, under notification settings, there is an option to notify while in call. i have mine on, because i prefer it. you can disable it, if you wish.
i didn't look through the default messaging app too deeply, because i was getting sick of having dual notifications, so i disabled all of those, and only use handcent's.
whether you would still get notifications in call, without having handcent, is beyond me, only because i'm not going to uninstall handcent and test it. i wish you the best.
alternatively, you could disconnect the phone and notification volumes (menu>settings>sound>general/volume uncheck use ringer volume for notification volume) and slide notification volume all the way down.
if you turn the notification volume down, u wont get any sound while on call or not on a call. how is handcent running for you? in comparison to the default messaging app?

handcent is my preferred messaging application. i haven't tried chompsms, but some people like it.
i like the fact that i can customize handcent to look and act like i choose. in conjunction with adfree, i don't have to look at ads either. best of all worlds.
I'm getting texts and no audible text message notification.
This seems to have happened when I went into text message settings and changed the text message notification to an m4a. I've since changed it back to be "default" but still don't receive an audible notification.
Volumes are fine, selected notification previews fine but I get nothing when it matters.
Anyone experiencing the same thing? Or care to try it out?
I'm on 4.0.2, no custom ROM involved.
try a reboot for hahas.

Worked after I set the message alert back to "default" and rebooted. I'll see what happens when I set it to a specific alert tone again. Unfortunately for this test I don't get text messages very often...
Seems like a very simple thing to get right/wrong. Odd bug.
Hi,
I installed Cyanogenmod 7.1.0 on my HTC Desire.
But I can't change my text message phone anymore. Normally, you can simply change it with settings -> sounds -> notification tone or messages -> settings -> notification tone, but even when I changed that it stayed the same.
I also tried Tone Picker from the Play Store but it still didn't change my text message tone. I choose the tone on an older ROM from Cyanogenmod so maybe that's the reaseon?
I really want to change it, because I'm getting annoyed by that sound
Does somebody know the answer?
thx
Open Messaging App
Press Menu
Choose Settings
Then Notifications (It should be checked)
Followed by Notification Settings
Select Ringtone
Done
I already did that, but it still stays the same

Well that's not the thing you said you did on your original post. Anyway, if it didn't work, full wipe and flash again.

Hey Guys!
I need help! with something on the settings of the phone that is making me bald.
Recently my Note10+ updated to the official OTA Android 11+ One UI 3.0. So far so good!
After that, I did a factory reset on it for a fresh app install... all that done with no hassle.
Now when changing the notification sound in the phone settings from the default Spaceline sound to the one I wanted all went well except for Whatsapp.
No matter what I do, whenever a message comes in, it always sounds the phone's default spaceline tone.
I've done everything I know from changing the notification sound by going to in-app settings, to the phone settings.... EVEN putting the in-app notification sounds to silent to no avail. It still keeps sounding the phone's default spaceline tone. What I am doing wrong? Please please, can anyone help me? I am so frustrated!

Go Settings > Apps
Search for the app you're wanting to change the sound on.
Open the app and click on Notification.
Select which notification you want to choose to change. You can toggle each one on or off and you can change from Silent to Alert and then change the Alert type and sound.
Hope this helps
