I've tried Missed Call, it only works for SMS, Calls, maybe GMail... Nothing I've seen in a generic fashion works to alert you when the Trackball is glowing for whatever random notification might be going on.
Surely there is a way that if the LED glows, a notification sound can be played? Any seen anything like this, or know if it's possible (within API)?
Offhand I imagine that some options like "Only play sound when screen is off" such as would be nice, as every time you install an app it blinks, stuff like that, but in general I find I've missed emails in K9, Twitter, etc, because I didn't hear it initially and it just blinks after.
Anyone else interested in this? Who else would pay $5 for this?

is there any app in the market that could use the top LED ( the one that lights up when charging) to notify us of miss calls and messages?
not sure about the led, but trackball alert lets you customise the colour of the track ball for different notifications e.g. missed call etc...
I'd like a top led too, but I don't thinks it's possible on the N1.
might happen since we got the cpu led notification
Maybe somebody here has the programming skillz needed to make this app, but I want to be able to one touch any hardware button to silence a notification AFTER it rings. All the answers i get are to trim my ringtones down more, or get these apps that set up profiles. I like my ringtones where they are, and the profile thing is not what what i need as i have different times for things each day so....
the problem scenario:
I am sitting in a meeting-class-dinner-movie... Etc Etc, anything like that and BAM, I get a text message. It so turns out I forgot to silence my phone before, so here I am with "Dancing Queen" from ABBA playing in my pants.
Current method to deal with said problem:
Either stand up, or lean way back, Pull phone out of pants, Press a hardware button to unlock, Slide to unlock, Enter design code thingy or pin code, and finally, Pull down notification bar to silence "Dancing Queen"
Idea App solution: Hear notification (SMS, MMS, Email, etc) ringtone play, Frantically reach down and press ANY hardware button and instantly silence the ringtone.
Can anybody do this?

DOn't know what phone you're using, pretty much every Android phone I've seen has something like this.
Don't know which phone u are using but my Desire is muted when I press VolDown during an incoming call....
DROID X: and yes, during phone calls, that works. But I said notifications. Emails SMS, MMS, etc.....
DROID X: Rooted, DeoDexed, BigDXSerenity Red
This is an odd issue I've had since day one.
I've defined a notification sound for all incoming events, however, when I receive an SMS text from a certain contact, my phone plays a Led Zeppelin tune I have on my SD card.
Doesn't happen with anything else.
It's driving me insane cause I can't find this setting anywhere.
Anyone else experience this and have any suggestions?

Have you tried going into settings inside the sms app to change it? thats how I did mine.
I'm having the same problem. I've gone through all of the notification settings many times and still no luck.
Hello, I have a SNS since four days and I notice a bug (I believe): when phone is in Silence mode it not vibrate on notifications. No on sms, no on gmail, no on every notification types.
I tried to set "vibrate always" in every application, but the issue remains.
Can you hel me to resolve my issue?
Thanks in advance.

Hey, try with this...
messaging>menu>settings
all the way down at the bottom check vibrate
I have exactly the same problem. Every setting (main, in apps) is set to "vibrate always" but the phone never vibrates in notifications when the sound is on.
I have been hoping it is a bug in 2.3, but there don't seem to be many threads here about it. On the other hand, how could it possibly be a hardware problem?
it vibrates when i get SMS
and all other alerts when my phone is in Sound ON or Vibrate Only
It doesn't vibrate for me with Google chat, Gmail, pretty much anything other notification wise, than SMS, and my storm8 notification systems doesn't vibrate.
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
hmm, if i have several notifications, gmail, stuff like that. from the lock screen, if i clear them all(button at the end of the list) i hear my notification tone after they clear.
ideas or anyone else ??
Has anyone found a solution for this problem.?
Here is a better description of the problem.
When I clear notifications that it makes the sound for the notification that is being cleared. For example, if I get 5 Gmails and I clear the notification for them it will trigger my incoming Gmail notification 5 times.
Anyone figured this out?
I have the same issue!!! Is it a setting somewhere? I also have the S3 Watch and it makes the notifications on it too...
I have this problem too. I *might* be related to having a setting in GMail that I have turned on to notify for every message. But if this is turned off, I don't get new notifications for emails if I have an outstanding notification already, which sucks for getting notifications on my watch.
Same here, its pretty annoying.
