Is there any way to suppress or at least silence emergency alerts on the A50? The options in Messages are all greyed out, and I already tried turning off notifications for Messages entirely. I wouldn't mind if it was just vibrating, but I hate the loud alarm...
I'm using an A505G on T-Mobile in the US.
disable messages and install another one like the one from Google.

I have notifications for the stock Messages app blocked (I use Textra as default now) and it looks like the Messages app can't be entirely disabled-- the option is greyed out.

Running AT&T Stock ROM on the Tilt II.
My annoyance is that, if I have a text conversation open, my phone does not make a sound or vibrate upon receipt of a new text message from that person. So if I leave it displaying the messages from that dialogue, and lock the phone, it won't give me a notification when I receive a message.
Anyone know a way to disable this annoying 'feature'?
Thanks

I'd love a fix for this also. I've seen it on most all ROM's I've tried. If the HTC messaging app is open (not sure if the MS messaging does it also) I don't get notified of txt messages.
This means either you should close the app after each message, or remember to check it during a "conversation" with somebody. Very annoying.
Anybody have any ideas?
Thanks,
Does anyone know how to stop the notification for delivery report or at change the tone? Right now it is set to the same tone as my sms notification and I can't seem to find a way to change it. It's really annoying because I always think I get a text but it is the delivery report. I would just change to a third party sms app but I like how my sms show up on the lock screen with the stock app. Any suggestions?
If you go into Settings in Messages you can set the notification tone for received messages and if you scroll further down you can disable the notifications for sent and failed messages and also set a different notification tone than your received one.
Sorry for the long run on sentence. My brain isn't functioning too well today.

Yeah, the notification for sent message is off right now. There doesn't appear to be an option for delivery notification which is different from sent message. It's the little checkbox thing next to texts when you send an sms to people on the same carrier.
Found it (maybe?). Settings, Text messages (SMS), deselect Delivery Reports. Also appears to have it under Multimedia Messages.
Yeah I still want the delivery report icon next to my texts, I just don't want a notification. If I uncheck it I lose them completely. That's how it has been for every other sms app I have used. I guess I'll have to just live without them.
Is there any way to have the HTC Messages app have the notification for an SMS continue every X minutes? I use SMS alerts for work and can't miss them. I know the Verizon one has an option but that thing is a hideous mess.
Any clean/minimal alternative SMS app that has this feature?
Update:
Tried 8SMS, Hello SMS, Hoverchat and none of them had that feature. However the Missed Call Reminder app looks like it will do what I want. Also, Hoverchat is pretty sweet, I think I am going to use it.

I like Textra as a good SMS app, and it can continue to remind you about SMS notifications every X minutes as long as X=2, and as long as you don't need to be reminded more than ten times. I have written to them asking them to make that two minute reminder period user-definable and also to see if they might extend the options on the number of reminders to include one that would keep them repeating endlessly as well. They were receptive to the ideas, so we'll see.
I may have to check out that Missed Call Reminder App. I've been using Phone Alarm, but I'm not sure it's really doing everything I'd like it to do properly.
try sms popup
Recurrent notifications manager on Google play.
Does anyone know how to disable the popup warning message that comes up when you click on an SMS link? It's very annoying.
Thanks!
Block notifications
Hi Matrix 23x,
Have you tried going to settings – sound and notifications – application notifications – choose the application – block notifications “on”?
That should stop notifications for that app completely, but you'll have to decide if that works for you. I don’t see anywhere to choose which notifications to block and which to keep, unfortunately.
Thanks for the response, however I don't want to block SMS notifications. I want to stop having to click "OK" confirming that the link to the SMS I receive is safe for me to view. Hope that makes sense. Thanks!
Same sms warning problem
This started for me 2 updates ago. In the 5, you could fix it in sms settings...with the 6, you cant. Ive tried other apps and it doesnt happen...only the default install. (Which I like)
Everytime i send an SMS or whatsapp I get a notification of my outbound message in the same way an inbound message notification.
I can't see any setting to switch this off. Its pretty annoying especially when using Android Auto..
You getting this too?
