I've been using Google Voice for a while, and my one problem is that whenever I get a missed call, and only a missed call, I get notifications from GVoice and also from the phone itself.
Clarification: In the status bar, I get both the standard GVoice notification icon (the smaller GVoice icon, in black) and the Missed call notification (red phone with zig zag line)
I don't think I need both though... is there a way to turn off the Missed call (red phone) notification?
I'm running the latest CM7 build, 7.0.0.2.
Thanks!
You would have to turn off GVoice notifications, as I don't see anything in the Phone Settings that would let you turn notifications off there. However, turning off GVoice notifications if you're using it isn't going to work then either, so I think that's the way it is.
Boo, thats frustrating, but I guess I can live with it, I have been for a while now.
I've dealt with it, since I don't get a lot of phone calls in general, and if I do I also have my work land line set to ring, so I'll answer with that. It would be nice to have some sort of status bar notification disable for the missed call (phone and red arrow), but that may cause problems for people who don't use GV if they accidentally turn notifications off...
Hey there.
LED indicatior for SMS, missed calls, not reacting well. I can't use LightFlow and similar app, because phone is not rooted (look complicated - or is there any 1 click rooting app? -2.3.3) Only on charging is orange, and when battery etc. That wouldn't be problem if notification light on trackpad could blink faster, and I suppose that root must be done too.
So, is there any app like "Nokia sleeping screen" on Symbian, to see time, missed calls and sms on screen in standby.
see:youtube.com/watch?v=yE5pLjrivP8
I don't think Widget Locker requires root, and you could make a custom lock screen that uses a widget like Pure Messenger to show missed calls, texts, emails, etc.
i don't think widget can solve problem, because notification should be visible all the time, like on Nokia sleeping screen. Or some program witch makes backlight light, trackpad light (faster, ex. every two second). I suppose for that phone must be rooted, so I need the easiest way - app that shows notification on screen all the time.
I think i found solution for LED notification and more- Missed Call Reminder (free, on Market) /also SMS/MMS notification /
Hi,
I'm having trouble setting up some pop up icons using [ox] to displace the icons.
What I'm trying to achieve are notifcation buttons which stack to one side of the screen. I want notifications for missed calls, SMS and whatsapp.
Calls will always be far right so I have a that set up with an x conditional when I have a missed call and it shifts off the screen when there are none.
The SMS notification is either off the screen, in the middle or on the far right (in place of the missed call icon). This works fine because I have it set up for either 1000:a resultant variable with b being the usual x coordinate if nothing is triggered.
My issue is the whatsapp icon which is always meant to be on the left side, relative to the SMS and missed call icons.
I have tried multiple line parameters but it ends up not using any of the conditionals at all.
So what I want is:
If I only have a whatsapp notifcation, it appears on the far right.
If I have a whatsapp notifcation and either a SMS OR a missed call then it appears in the middle.
If I have a whatsapp notifcation and BOTH SMS and missed calls, it will appear on the left.
How could I set this up?
I use my personal phone for work emails but also for texting and such, so it behooves me to keep it loud so I can hear when are emails coming in but I regularly talk to my girlfriend throughout the day also via Hangouts and the constant dings every few minutes gets rather annoying. Is there anyway to make it so that my phone only vibrates in Hangouts (lets say only between the hours of 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM) but all other notifications are normal? Or perhaps vice versa (everything set to vibrate except for phone calls and exchange emails)?
I'm rooted and running C-ROM (AOSP) so anything goes!
Have you look into blocking mode? you can set time when it is in effect, you can choose allowed contacts etc. Also in accesssibility mode you could turn off all sounds and have camera flash blink instead. In contacts you can choose your own sounds for each person's call, message alert and vibration pattern, you could even record your own sound.
I guessed you missed the part where I'm running an AOSP ROM lol thanks for the suggestion though.
This is more for when I have my phone in my pocket, otherwise I have active display set up.
I recently switched from an S4 to a Note 4, and have been missing lots of incoming SMS messages. I realize now that the S4 would beep any time a new message arrived, but the Note 4 suppresses notifications when you're inside the conversation for which a new message arrives. I can kind of see the logic for this - why would one need the phone to beep if you're already on the screen that's showing you the incoming message? In practice, though, I find that I leave the conversation screen open all the time when I'm not looking at the phone.
Most frequently, I keep the phone on a dock at my desk, hooked up to my KVM switch, so I can use my keyboard/mouse to write messages during the day. After sending a message, I switch back to my main computer/monitor and work over there until the phone beeps at me again. I rely on the SMS notifications to grab my attention, but need to explicitly exit the conversation after sending each message now if I want the beep to occur. The same thing happens when I put the phone in my pocket, holster, on the counter, etc. after sending an SMS. I'm sure I'll develop a habit after a while, but it seems foolish to me that I can't just stay in a conversation and have it beep whenever there's activity. This is the only email/IM/SMS app that I have that behaves this way.
I've tried to force the Messages app to beep at me whenever an SMS arrives, but there doesn't appear to be an option for this. Hopefully, I've just overlooked it, so:
QUESTION: Is there a way to configure the Messages app to beep whenever an SMS arrives, even if I'm already inside the conversation for the new message?
I'm using the stock ROM, no root, the default Messages app that comes on the phone, and a built-in notification sound (i.e. not something custom from the external SD card). Vanilla configuration. Thanks for your help.

In phone app go to settings - call - call alerts . There is option to alert you on notifications. Make sure you have this check.

Just to clarify, when I say "conversation", I mean that I'm reading an SMS thread inside the Messages app - not having a verbal conversation in the Phone app. Assuming that this is understood...
In the "Call alerts" page, I see several settings. Mine are configured as follows (where "+" is checked, and "-" is unchecked):
CALL VIBRATIONS
+ Vibrate when answered
+ Call-end vibration
CALL STATUS TONES
+ Call connect tone
- Minute Minder
+ Call end tone
ALERTS ON CALL
+ Notify during calls
Under the configuration above, would you expect the Messages app to beep when an SMS arrives on the thread that I'm currently reading?

Now i'm not sure. i need to see if in scenario you talking about i have notification, if i do i will explain my settings.
EDIT:
OK. I have notification. In settings in default messenger i have in notification Notification sound ( choose as you wish)
Vibrate +
Repeat message alert ( I got every 10 Min)
Pop-up display +
Lock Screen +
Status Bar +
What im reading messages i got pop-up with sound on top of message app.
But when im reading message and i get message from same person i don't have sound notification. It must be setup by software this way.
Did you find a fix? Mine does the same thing.

I'm still getting the same behavior. Missed several messages yesterday, in fact. This is the first thing I check after every OS update from AT&T, but I guess most people continue to prefer to not be notified when their text messages arrive.
If my screen is on while I'm in a conversation, you're correct, no notification will occur. But if my screen times out (locks) I will get a notification tone. I guess it just assumes you are looking at the screen if it's on and a message comes in.
Not aware of any way to change this.

I think that that's probably the intent. Maybe my habits are different than others', but I'm frequently not looking at the phone when the Messages app is up. Actually, before getting the Note 4 and training myself to switch off of Messages after reading each new text, I predominantly wasn't looking at the screen while Messages was up.
There's probably no one-size-fits-all setting here. It's just too bad that there's not an option to enable/disable audible notifications to fit individual preferences.
Did anyone ever find a way around this? You figure someone would have made an xposed module or something.
What a response.
Your response sounds like We should all be alike and conform.
Text notifications
Try '8sms' ... only text messaging app that I've found that will consistently notify me of incoming texts. Some apps will for a time but then stop doing so. This one has worked well for me.
