Alright, so I got a bluealert bracelet as an early christmas gift. It vibrates if I get an incoming call, or if my phone goes out of range of the bracelet. I love it thus far since sometimes I will miss a call because my phone is in a position I can't feel it vibrate.
My only problem is that is doesn't vibrate if I get an SMS or an email. Ideally it would vibrate once for a sms or an email, and keep vibrating for a phone call.
My question is how so I get the thing to vibrate for those as well? The phone views it as a headset via the bluetooth manager.
If someone can make up a little app to do this, I would be willing to paypal them $40. Nothing pretty, just something that tells the bluetooth to vibrate X number of times if a sms or email is received, and leave the incoming call functionality untouched.
Thanks!
vibrate
Which phone do you have?
A titan with DCD's latest rom on it.
I doubt $10 will cover the cost to fix your issue.
Problem:
The bracelet receives "Incoming call" alert and vibrates on that.
The phone thinks it's a headset so you can only send it headset actions.
Let's assume it's as dumb as they get and simply vibrates when there's an auto channel open to the bracelet. Then what you need is for something to momentarily open the audio gateway to the headset when you receive a new message.
If you simply wanted vibrate on messages then I say look at Jetware's solution to manage voice notifications to bluetooth headsets.
Now if it's smarter and actually knows that it's an incomng call then the problem gets larger.
alright, I installed jetware's software.
When a message is received the green light on the bracelet flashes for longer than usual, but it does not vibrate.
This is with sms and email.

Could you post the cab for the jetware notifier?
This way people can actually analyse the notifier and perhaps patch it or modify it.
Here it is.
Your problem here is that there isn't a "vibrate my headset" command. This is usually a function of the headset that is vibrates on the "Incoming Call" alert.
This behavior hints that the bracelet is aware of "Incoming Call" verses "audio gateway opened" which isn't good for you.

Is there a *.jcf file on your phone?
That is the config file.
Maybe you can edit the incomming SMS part to match incomming call.
On the other hand, Kyphur is probably dead-on right with his analyses.

last time i checked it was perfectly okay to request custom software in dev and hacking, which is what the op is doing... he just needs to reword his thread title to reflect that properly.

I believe that a piece of software available on these very forums called "Re-Remind" should be what you are after!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=498161
phoneAlarm
check out phoneAlarm (http://www.pocketmax.net) -- everything you need and more...
I use S2U2, works fine!
tested
one day of testing
ReRemind - remidners are not working, problems with unistalling (programmer whos leaving starting icon in windows startmenu after unistalling process, probably made more mistakes inside program code)
s2u2 - slows device, to big app for such simple functions
PhoneAlarm (trial) - vibration reminders works quite well, but freezes system when phone in lock mode, program have good function like notify for instant messaging
thats it, no more programs for reminding?
best regards
g-profile
Another solution.
Do not affect system speed. Nice looking. Vibration remiders works how it shoulds on factory sofware. Unfortunately app is not freeware, but price is affordable (5eur).
Only one function is missing. Reminders for IM like in PhoneAlarm.
Any idea how to force Parlingo to:
1. flash LED when message recieved
2. work with g-profile (registry hack?) using vibra-reminders?
I have gone through this thread and cleaned up the off-topic posts. A reminder that members have two options when visiting a thread:
Option 1
Responding with helpful and constructive information as opposed to "use the search", "try Google", etc.
Option 2
Move on. There is absolutely no reason to respond in a rude tone or to make someone feel stupid ... it is not constructive and serves no purpose.
There seems to be a significant amount of animosity of late in the HD2 related forums. I'm not certain as to why this is, nor do I want to hear any reason for justification; what I do know is that it is unacceptable.
XDA is about bringing together folks who have similar passions about mobile technology. As the forum is accessed worldwide, you will encounter all types of folks from different walks of life; some of these folks will be extremely technical, others not. In all cases, it is the responsibility of all members to remain respectful of one another. We all have different opinions, we do not all have the same level of knowledge, and some folks are looking to feel like they are learning while trying to contribute.
If this thread is reported once more, I will be looking to suspend the accounts of all members who post off-topic comments. I would remind members that the best moderation is self-moderation.
Alright, hopefully someone can help. I am running a WVGA HTC Imagio with WM6.5 and a NRG custom rom with sense 2.5. I just recently installed and then removed the newest HTC Messaging Client. Couldn't send or recieve MMS messages. Thats all fixed now, but, whenever I get a text or MMS message, the notification bubble shows in my top bar, but nowhere else, not even my unread notification on Sense. It does show up in the standard lock screen (HTC's) however.
No, it doesn't show up in Titanium either, just shows 'no new texts'.
It also doesn't show up when I use ThrottleLauncher, iPhoneToday, Infinity, Androkkid, or Home2.
So, it shows up in the lock screen, but no where else. Any ideas?
also, why is my tag or whatever showing that 'OP' thing?
anyone got anything?
Theres got to be someone that can help out there!
Alright, got a little more information. I checked HKCU/System/State/Mesages/SMS/Unread and the 'count' register. When I send a test text, it doesn't change, it stays at 0. BUT when I change it manually to '1', then it registers in all my systems (TL, iPT, Sense 2.5, etc).
But when I remove the '1', its back to where no notifications other than in the top bar and lock screen are given. I do get the usual message notifications via sound and vibrate as well.
So, does anyone have any idea on why it works for the lock screen and top bar, but not in sense or any other UI?
Mister, you are in a habit of posting multiple threads about the same thing at different places.
If you are not getting any answers maybe there is no solution.
PM'ing me won't help you.
D&H forum is meant for posting Development and hacks not for asking for solution.
Please read the posting rules.
And you had already posted the above question here and then re-posted it in D&H which is breaking the XDA Rules.
As i said that your problem may be related to the ROM or the messeging client, try and post in the ROM thread ( that is the the Thread from where you got the ROM which is currently installed on your device ) or the messeging client thread.
I did not move your thread i closed it ( the thread which you posted in D&H this one )and so will i close this one.
Please post in the correct places Only.
And also your thread ( the one i shut ) did not get "lost" if you would have just gone to your profile and seen the threads created by you you would have found it.
Please read the rules carefully and follow them.
Do not break them.
You have broken a rule, consider this a warning; you may earn yourself a vacation from XDA on breaking a rule again.

Not working consistently... unsure why at this time.
This is an app i am currently developing.
The goal is to be able to set up a profile like "At Work" then enable it when you are at work, and it will respond to text messages with specific messages.
Profile specific
Personal - first if there is a specific response for the person
Group - second if there is no personal, if that person is in a group with a message
General - third if no person or group message, send a generic message
It is in its infancy, but right now it should respond to a message sent by anyone with one customizable general message.
There is an on/off switch in the app.
===WARNING===
this app is currently in development, I don't give any promises to stability at this time.

ps. Any feedback, suggestions or assistance with problems is happily accepted right now as this is my first project, and i'm struggling with a few minor details.
DO NOT TEXT YOURSELF WITH THIS PROGRAM ON! I have not yet figured out how to filter out the active phones number!
also, i'm not sure if this ended up in the correct forum, lol.

figured it out, i'm a nub, forgot to sign it

Wondering if someone could help me out. Been having many SMS issues, switched to ChompSMS, received a video that was blocked with a stage fright message covering it - didn't play it . Still continued to have SMS issue, so I switched to Textra, the video is still there, only this time it's showing as a standard video preview, with the play button on it.
Is there anyway to check for stage fright prior to playing the MMS? See pics.
