[Q] Messaging issue

Just a quick question here, I tried having a look for an existing thread relating to it but no luck.
On my Desire HD I have a bit of a messaging issue. About 50% of the time when I receive an SMS it doesnt notify me in anyway. The only way I will find out I have these messages is by going into the messages folders itself. The other 50% of the time it notifys as normal - sound, led and icon in top bar.
Any ideas here?
Cheers
Ronan

what ROM are you running or is it stock??
it could be that you need to change The LED settings in the App itself or under settings depending on what ROM you are running.

Stock ROM. Its not just the LED though, no form of notification what so ever.

looks like its an issue after the update. Apologies for the duplicate thread

Did you try to freeze it with Titanium backup ? But i dont understand why you want to disable it

Is it because....
.....you have installed another messaging app and you're getting multiple notifications?

Thanks for the reply. Titanium Backup cannot freeze it.
I want to disable it as I'm using a replacement app and whenever I receive a SMS I get it twice, once in both apps. The fix is to disable the stock message app, but I can't see how to do it

Hmm i am not sure about this app ... but you can disable notifications in the stock messaging app: open stock messenger --> settings --> notifications and there you can disable everything

Thanks again for the reply, but the notification isn't the problem. I get the message twice, in the both apps. So in both stock and the ICS Messaging I get the message twice.
I tried turning off notifications and it didn't help (worth a try though )

Oh, now i understand No, its not possible ... all the message apps are working on the base of the stock (i think), thats why you cant disable it.
You could try to set a wrong Service center number in the original app, and the right SCN in the one you will use give it a try and report back

There seems to be no way to set the SCN in the ICS app, so no go on that one. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll just have to go back to stock, no biggie

To be honest, i dont even know whats the difference between that two apps, the stock one looks great to ... the only thing why i use GoSMS is that you can block messages and set a private box, and theres no message/call blocker that can satisfy my needs for now ... i like the stock one more, but what can i do

You can't disable the sense message app but you can turn the notifications off if you go to SMS - settings - messages

i had the exact same problem, i just disabled notifications from the message apps settings and now i'm only getting one notification from ICS messenger
very happy !!

SMS Popup (Led Working)

Yo! I've been using SMS Popup for some time now and just realized that the led blinking rate and different colors have been working flawlessly ever since I updated my modem/baseband to UVLI3 with Ktoonsez kernel on WildChld's v70 rom. I know there is the Light Flow app, but I just find this a lot more simpler and more useful. Here's the play store link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.everythingandroid.smspopup&hl=en
Enjoy!

SICK!!! Thanks so much for posting this.

The notification (red circle that says 1) on the message icon stays even after I send the message through SMS Popup (yes I disabled notification on stock messenger). Does the notification stay for you guys?

You need to check "Mark Read" in additional settings.

Hrm Ive been using SMS Popup for 4 years with my G1, I have it of course installed on my S3.. but LED doesnt show up at all. Stock Rom. (Least when I use Test Notification) So how are you all getting it to work and do all colors work?

Not sure if the colors work on stock. At least they didn't when i was running stock. To test the colors, I had to send myself test texts.

Ok so on stock you say these wont work at all eh? Ugh.. personally I hate how stock even handles LED anyways.. seems to always cut off. I just dont wanna change roms till official JB comes out and roms are based on it.

Anyone using stock rom with LED stuff working?

Seems like a cool app. Just downloaded it. Hope to give it a good run.

Oh its a very good app. Been here since Htc G1 days. Why Google never added it as an option. No clue. Just wish LED light would work on stock.

Disable heads up notification for certain apps?

Is there a way to disable heads up notification while in certain apps?
It's kinda annoying when you are using navigation and the heads up notification blocks the street you are supposed to turn on.

With HeadsOff lollipop heads-up notifications can now be disabled!
No root needed.
You can also restore the ticker text in the statusbar!
Give it a try:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.noheadsup

You can disable it for texts through the stock app. Does the headsoff app actually work with the hangouts app? Read some reviews and it doesn't work for everyone. Thanks.

This app doesn't work when enabled, I also purchased the pro version for $1.99 and it still doesn't work. Please respond to my email and provide a refund.

FYI, this method (finally) turned off those dang annoying Heads up notifications if you weren't already aware.

Reminders set through Google Assistant not working

If I set a reminder through Google Assistant or manually set a reminder through Google calendar, I never get any notification when they time comes. I've had this problem for a few months now and can't figure out what the fix is. Anyone else have this problem and able to fix it?

Experiencing the same issue since MIUI 10. Went back to MIUI 9. Raised a bug with Xiaomi. Still no reply from them. Started a discussion in MIUI forum but no reply. Guess this bug is here to stay for quite sometime.

I had to enable Autostart for Google Calendar to get reminders. It allows the program to run its background processes and give the notifications.

Tried this. Didn't work. I get the notification but no sound. This is the behaviour since MIUI 10.

Fixed It!

The settings have changed in MIUI 10. That's the reason users are getting confused. Xiaomi should have mentioned it in the first place. Follow these steps to enable sound for notification of any app:
Settings > Installed Apps > [APP] > Notifications > [APP] notifications > Toggle Sound On
These settings may vary for other apps. But the general idea is to toggle sound on for that particular app notification. Hope this helps!

Thanks for this suggestion. I tried it and it's still not working for me.

Few accounts
I had similar issue, I have multipple google accouns. I found out that when I save reminders (both calendar and keep) under one of them then it would not work. But it works under another one. Still not sure why it doesn't on the first one though.
