If I go into Settings, Sounds and Notifications, Ringtones and Sounds and select Messages Notifications or Calendar Notifications they both crash the settings with a message "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" Any ideas? The other ring tones setting and notifications sounds are all fine. Restarting doesn't seem to help and the phone isn't modified in any way other than using the google now launcher.

I had this problem as well for Messages notifications when I used package disabler pro to disable the built in messages app (I use a 3rd party SMS app), once I re-enabled it, it started working again. so these sound/notification settings are hardwired into the default messenger and calendar apps it appears..

i like Handcent but one thing that has always bothered me is that even though handcent notifies me of texts and i read/reply and the handcent notification goes away, the default HTC/Android messaging app is still running and showing the notifications in the notification bar.
how can i remove that crap, its so annoying to have to go click the 'clear' button in the task bar every time i get a text even after i have replied to it with handcent.
again this is the default HTC messaging app that is notifying me, not handcent.
Turn off the notifications
Since handscent and the stock messaging are separate applications they use separate notifications. However, handscent still gets its information from the messaging application. So it is as simple as turning off your notifications for messaging in the message setup. It wont hurt handscent at all. Just open up the messaging application and turn off all your notifications by hitting menu and settings and notifications (i think). Then you wont get them anymore.
This should solve your problem.
Is there a way to disable the SMS/MMS icon that appears in my notifications? I believe it's the default one because I have uninstalled all third party applications.
Even when I click on it and read any new messages, it does not disappear unless I click "clear" in the notifications drop-down.

Go into your stock messaging app. Find settings by pressing menu! Scroll to received Notifications. disable it now.... There you go, the little message icon shouldnt appear.

lol.. thanks for the help, but I've disabled everything on the stock messaging app. I don't know what it is that keeps making the little message icon still appear.
I installed handcent sms & I have been getting two SMS notifications for each SMS I receive, I have selected handcent as default app for sms yet the second notification comes through as a totally separate sound notification about a second after the first.
In notification pull down menu I see both handcent & stock messaging apps notification.
There must be a way to stop this but cant figure out how.
go into the stock messaging app and turn off notifications...i use SMS Popup and it has its own notifications and you have to turn off the default app notifications or you get duplicates
Wrong Section.
Turn off notifications in MMS.apk (i.e stock app)
Hi there.
Using Handcent SMS, I've disabled the news message notifications in the builtin messaging app.
With that, I lost the message preview in the ring lockscreen, obviously.
Is there any way to have both?
Meaning, having the messages previewed in the lockscreen AND not be bothered by double message notifications? (one for Handcent, one for stock app)?
Hi all,
There used to be an option for notifications to override DND, however the option seems to be missing now. Can anyone help me find it?

Thanks for your input, maybe my question wasn't specific enough. I was looking for an option for one of my messaging apps(WhatsApp) to override DND. Cannot find those options on the page
If WhatsApp is your default SMS app, the Messages setting in above stuff might take care of your wish.
