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.
My Galaxy Nexus finally got the JB update. I love everything about it thus far, except one thing: It seems when I get a text message while in the default application, it'll play my selected ringtone as it would from ICS, but the one key, and very annoying difference is, I cannot stop the tone from playing. I like to set a 30 second or so long tone for my texts, and while I'm using the app as a text comes it, it sounds off, and there's no possible way to stop it without having to silence my phone entirely, and even then, when I put the sound back on before it's done, it's still sounding off. Whereas in ICS, the notification still popped up in the notification bar like previous versions of Android, but not in JB for some reason? Can anybody please help me out here? How can I stop this from occurring without having to silence my phone entirely?
Use a shorter notification sound or vibrate around folks.
Hey guys I have tried to figure out why I'm not but at this point I'm lost. I never get notifications that I have a text message. No sound and nothing in the top bar. Any ideas? I've played with the setting for both regular sms and hangout and still nothing.
Not sure if this is the correct place to post this question. But, my text message notification ringtone suddenly stopped working. The phone vibrates when i get a text message but no sound. Which means im missing all my text messages. All other sounds seem to be working. This is happening with both the stock HTC messaging app and hangouts.
I've tried different ringtones, I've rebooted and it works for the first text message then stops.
Im using Santod's stock 6 sense rom.
Anyone have any ideas?

In the stock messaging app go to settings>Notifications and see if "play notification sound" is checked. Then in notification sound set it to the preferred sound and see if that works.
If all else fails do a clean install of the rom and you should be good to go. I am currently running the same Rom and on first boot my ringtone in sound settings was set to silent.

Thanks for the reply, everything is turned on as you suggested. I even changed the ringtone back to a HTC ringtone thinking one of my custom ringtones was causing the problem. But no change. I was trying to avoid the reset but i guess that's my only option.
Hi guys
i'm at my first experience with a Pixel smartphone and and i have a problem with notifications. I copy to you what i have written on Google support Forum (i haven't received answer from anyone...) and i hope that you can help me...because i going crazy:
Hi guys, after the update to android 10 i have notification problems. Very often the notifications are reported with sound and vibration but when i wake up the phone i can't see the notification on the lockscreen and there is also no notification in the status bar at the top. I can see the notification only with the scroll down of the status bar. I've noticed that if you go in the notification menù and enable or disable "allow notification indicators", the notification symbol will magically appear in the status bar.
I've tried to send a feedback, through the appropriate item in the menu, but i haven't receive answer...
Note: I installed the January patches but nothing has changed
i've tried to change all the notification settings and i've tried also a factory reset but without success (for two days, after the factory reset the Pixel haven't lost a single notification but yesterday the problems was reappeared).
I hope a lot in a your help guys
P.S: i ask sorry to all for my bad english

I have this issue only with WhatsApp and not all the time. Occasionally I receive a message and my phone makes the sound as well as vibrates however nothing appears on the status bar or on the lock screen. I see the notification dot on the WhatsApp icon itself and if I open the app, it shows there's a new message. All other apps are working absolutely fine so I thought it's just a bug with WhatsApp.

Hi matekaneve and thanks a lot for have answered to me
So do you think that is only a problem with WhatsApp?
I've tried to install also the newer beta versions of WhatsApp but the bug, always in random way, continue to appear...
But i'm really happy if the cause of the bug is only WhatsApp and not the Pixel 2 XL
