The only way I know to do this is with the accessibility service with an event type of 64 you can monitor as new messages come in and get the text from them.
HTC phones have an intent for when notifications are added and removed from what I remember, but not other makes.

[WANTED] Growl push notifications on android

I'm wanting something like Prowl for android, so my growl notifications get pushed to my phone.
I was thinking something along the lines of:
Growl gets a notification > send SMS through email to the phone > APP intercepts SMS and pops up the Growl notification as an android notification in the pulldown
Possible?
Tasker (tasker.dinglisch(dot)net/index.html sorry can't post links yet) has the ability to intercept text message I believe. And I know you create many types of custom notifications based on the input. You could make a notification bar message and play a custom sound. Or even trigger application loads, and well, too many other things to list.
You'll have to play around with it a bit first to get the hang of it.
For the PC side you will have to find or write a program that will forward the growl notifications by text to your phone though.

Tried it, that requires the phone to be constantly active and to be on the same wifi network.
Tagging along.

Best i've found is to just set growl send an sms to my phone through my email.
This is something that I will hopefully starting work on shortly, However I will most likely utilise C2DM on android 2.2 (Froyo) though I may add a fall back to use SMS's with the app intercepting them.
Bump!
I'm switching all my notification stuff to Growl for Windows and it's awesome. I was looking for a way to forward them to my Android phone and found this topic. With Froyo now supporting push, I think this is easier to make without the hassle of WiFi, Bluetooth and other non-solutions. Unfortunately, I don't know Java so I can't code this myself, but maybe some other dev is interested in this? I'd gladly donate.
Edit: Hehe, only read the first sentence of the post above me..
When tasker intercepts an SMS, can it delete the sms? That way you get a notification in the status bar without having to delete a text msg.
There is: http://nma.usk.bz . It's just like Prowl, but for the Android.
Right now there is pretty much just the Android client and the public API to send notifications.

Hi uskr,
So does that work in the same way? You just fill out the details in Growl for Windows and it'll push through notifications to the phone?
If so that's exactly what I want Coming from an iPhone with Prowl to a Galaxy S2, and the Prowl notifications would be sorely missed.
Yes. We actually support both Growl for Windows and for MacOS. It's just like Prowl, but for the Android platform.
Enjoy!
Lovely, thanks Now the long wait for the SGS2 to get here
Check out Notifo, its currently in beta and not in the market. Google it "notifo for android"
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Notifo was great but it's now been abandoned

Anyone else other than the pay-for "NotifyMyAndroid" that we can use?

Hi, no not at the moment, hopefully sometime soon with the development of windows 7 or an upgraded version of the stock app, but only way of notifications is by email,
thereis an app called fim. it allows you to use facebook chat through an app interface. it also gives the function of g giving you a notification in the task barwhen you have a new notification or message similar to as if you received a new email tor text.

[Q] WP7 Notification Center

Would it be possible to make a app that is used as a notification center (common notification platform) for other apps??
It could have a Live Tile with a number which is indicating the total number of missed notifications (all supported apps), and flipping through app specific notifications showing the app icon and the missed notification number of the specific app.
When you open the app there is a list of all notifications you could filter, search or swipe them away. Clicking them maybe could "deep link" you directly into the notifying app.
Does it have to be homebrew or could it be released into the marketplace??
Could it be achieved completely on the phone or would we need some kind of server for such a service??
Hope you understand me, my English isn't the best
No, it violates the WP7 sandboxing. You can't communicate between apps or into another apps isolated storage. It would be possible by calling native code but then it's stuck as homebrew only and that's a lot of effort for something only very few will ever use and every app would have to specifically support it.

[Q] How to override basic functionality to create theme in wp7

Hi
I want to create an app that overrides the way windows phone receives text messages
Is there a class I can use to have my app always monitoring SMS traffic? Is there a way i can have my app override what kind of notification the windows phone would use when text message is received? Is there a way for the app to intercept incoming text messages and deal with them quietly as opposed to requiring the user to interact with them? Can windows phone 7 apps simply run in the background, monitoring traffic all the time? What class or part of the framework does all that?
Thanks in advance.

[Q] Secretly Saving SMS & Call Logs without any notification on the notification bar.

[Q] Secretly Saving SMS & Call Logs without any notification on the notification bar.
Hi Team,
Wanted to know which application is there in Google Play store which can secretly save the text messages and call logs of the Phone without the user who actually is using the phone. Secretly means no notifications should be shown on the status bar and it should run on the background.
For e.g. If parents want to give their child a phone and want to keep an eye on them, then they can install this application so that even if child deletes the contents of SMS/Call logs, then also parents would come to know what they had been doing as the contents of the SMS along with other necessary information would be saved by the application on the device.
If there is no such app yet developed by anyone then would request you to have a look into the same.
