[Q] [Android] Anyway to make messaging notification sounds persistent? - General Questions and Answers

Is it possible to mod an android phone to play notification sounds (or vibrate) for txt or gtalk messages even while the messaging application is up and running on screen? This is a feature I miss from my blackberry days and I keep missing messages because of it.
In a google search I found this question asked many times on other forums, but in no case was a solution provided; just a lot of "that's just how it is on Android". Well, if your Android is rooted shouldn't you be able to change this behavior?
Thanks in advance for any help.

listen to messages

i can figure out how to get my phone to read my text messages to me, i could have sworn this was possible...can someone tell if its possible and if so, how to do it?
-oh i dont mean speech to text (that works)
This should go in the Q&A section...
There are quite a few Market apps which do this... like Speak Message Service, SMS Speak...
Handcent sms does this too.
(The first app I installed on my N1..I've used it on my hero before and absolutely love it....)

[APP][MOD] LightFlowLITE Sms off only when read

Hey fellow xda-ers!
I love and use the LightFlowLITE app from rageconsulting found on the Google Play store, i absolutely love it!
However, if i were to receive more than one SMS, i would reply to the one SMS but not the other, my notification light would turn off. So i modded the apk to check if ALL the SMS are read before turning off the light.
i have tested this with GO SMS and it works perfectly. I do use the Accessibility service option, as if i don't it won't shut off my light. This being said, it should work with Stock SMS apps. If not, just reply with the SMS app you are using, ROM, and device information and i will see what i can do. Thanks everyone!

I do plan to add this into the main app (really old versions v1.x actually did this, but it went with contact specific notifications to being based on what was viewed instead of what was read as many people leave conversations as unread and got confused to why it wouldn't clear.

Thanks for planning on adding it! Really love this, keeps me from forgetting to reply. And im not sure what you mean by "people leave conversations as unread" if you open the conversation, it marks the message as read.. and by default, i think if you have an unread SMS it still keeps the LED on. Anyway, can't wait to see the update!

issues with twitter notifications on gear s2

hello everyone
im new to the forum but didnt find any related existing thread on it so i decided to post, im the happy owner of a gea s2 classic and so far im very happy with it, just have 2 issues:
-notifications from twitter show correctly, and i see the actions if i click the 3 little dots: reply, retweet and favorite, however when selecting any of those, it show "error!", thefore not letting me do anything with these notifications, even though the options are here. reply options work well for every other notifications where they are allowed (whatsapp, email, messenger, etc)
- i cannot seem to make s voice understand punctuation when dictating a message:when i say "coma", or "period", it liteally writes down the word instead of writting the signs, any tips?
thanks for any help!

well i went to my gear manager app and selected the apps that i wanted to get notifications from and started receiving twitter notifications, when you open the 3 little dots on the notification it gives you the reply, retweet and favorite that tweet that you are being notified of, but when selecting any of these options, it gives "error" message, so why are the actions for twitter notifications enabled if they dont actually work, samsung support is no help...
I'm having the exact same issue with Twitter notifications and of course Samsung Support is of no help. I see the options to reply, favorite, re-tweet, etc. but it always fails.
Solutions?
Wondering if anyone has a fix for this, Samsung support is something to be desired. There brilliant idea and only solution is to reset the the watch. Which was a waste of time and did not fix the problem. It's it a settings issue? Thanks

Default SMS issue 6.0

I tried searching for this but it's so specific and I'm quite possibly using the wrong terms.
Let both of my LG G3 update to Android 6.0 (D85030p) and the default SMS messenger has stopped working with my text banking and retirement balance texts.
They will send and receive texts from other people but not these 6 digit numbers. No response from either one even trying to re-register the phone with each institution.
Google Messenger works just fine but lacks the only feature I like about the default G3 SMS, the ability to lock/keep a reply from being deleted. Even when deleting an entire conversation, the locked replies within are saved. That is the only feature I am missing.
Can anyone recommend another SMS app that has this feature or maybe there is a setting somewhere with the default SMS that I'm just not seeing ?
There are a million SMS apps in the play store and trying to read each one for details gets old after about 20 minutes. Hopefully there is a fix or another app that has this feature that someone here knows about.
Thank you.
Guess I'll answer my own question.
The Verizon messaging app has the features I'm looking for.

Whatsapp quick reply messages

Hi!
I just bought my gear s3 frontier, but I want to customize my quick reply messages of Whatsapp.... Is there a way? Because I can add new ones on normal SMS....but not in Whatsapp....
Help!
Thanks
Even i am looking for this answer.
After adding custom "quick replies", i am not seeing them when responding to whatsapp messages. Just seeing the default ones which came with the watch.
i am looking for the answer too. Cant find yet.
There is no a way right now
Try using W-history for whatsapp or notifications wear style app.
I have customised reply's and can use them for the above apps.
Did anyone find a fix for this. I have fit 2 and cannot use my custom responses on whatsapp
