Interference between SMS Pop up and noLED

So I've been running noLED on my Nexus S for a while now and just decided to add the app SMS Popup. The problem is that when my phone is sleeping and I get a text I no longer get the notification icon from noLED only, I also get the message pop up and the buttons on it (reply and close) stay active.
I wish that when my phone was sleeping and I got a text I only got the "notification light" from noLED and once I unlocked the screen I'd see the SMS pop up. Does anyone know of a way to reach that? Maybe another app would behave accordingly? Thanks

Under the miscellaneous setting in noled check the option to delay SMS notifications. Works great for me.
That said the pop-up won't be there when the phone is unlocked. Just for the I initial screen on.

Thanks for the tip but that doesn't really help me achieve what I want.
Maybe I could try another SMS program? (Handcent, etc) Opinions/experiences would be great.

I don't think the app matters. The way I understand it is noled will "dismiss " any popup occupying the screen in order to work.
Let me know if you find something though as its an option I'd love to have myself.

Tried Handcent, Chomp, tried even using Widget Locker and it was a no go.

[Q] Notifications go silent on the Skyrocket

Hi all,
I've been a member for a while, but this is my first post in a while.
I recently changed my Motorola Atrix to a Samsung Skyrocket. I love the phone, however I am having a little problem. The Skyrocket will not make noise or vibrate for notifications (such as text, or email, facebook, twitter, etc) but will play ringtone for phonecalls. When I restart the phone, it will work maybe for a day, but after that, it stops working again. Sometimes after receiving a call the notifications will start working again. I've checked the volume settings, and the notifications and ringtone settings, and everything like that... it's all normal. Any suggestions? I've been searching in the forums, and other sites as well, but dont seem to find anything.
The phone is rooted, but that's about it, stock rom. I also did a master reset on the phone as well.
I was using go sms but deleted it and the notifications still go silent.
Any help would be really appreciated!
Thanks!

Hopefully someone here can help ya. I still have not found a solution
Ome thing I never really thought of was trying an Odin restore back to stock...a full clean slate. If that doesn't fix it then definitely a defective phone

That's what I did this morning. So far it's working perfectly, hopefully it will keep working.
Thanks for the reply!

I installed Go SMS again and seems to be working. What I did notice this time around, is that when I was setting up the notifications for the Facebook app, I noticed the option to choose from the Android System ringtones or from Go SMS. Maybe I had it set up to choose ringtones from Go SMS. Seems to be working fine now.

The notification volume and incoming call volume are seperated. The notification sometimes changes somehow idk how. If you want the incoming and notification to be the same download MySettings. The open the app up and click and hold the ringer icon then itll come up with volume settings. Check the box that says use incoming and notification sound together

FB Notifications Problem

I am having problems with the Facebook notifications. I can not receive any of them. Its the ROM issue, because my wife can receive notifications and her phone is not even rooted. Anyone having the same problem or know how to troubleshoot?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

Its not a rom issue...if you've never signed into Facebook on a blackberry, notifications will not work! Sign onto a blackberry and you will start getting them on your android...idk why it works but it does

I just downloaded FB for the hell of it - have you gone into facebook > settings and checked "Notifications' active, then down to 'Notification ringtone' and set a tone? It was defaulted to 'Silent' on my phone.

Yeah all those are good. I just can't get the notifications on the status bar

@nativesmiley: Facebook push notifications will work where they show in status bar.
Here is what I did that eventually got it working -
Logged into FB on computer - In 'Account Settings' > 'Mobile Settings' - I activated my phone number.
In FB app on phone - went to Settings > 'Refresh interval' - Set it to 'Never' and Notifications set to 'Active'.
Clicked the three bars in top left corner, scrolled down to the bottom, click 'Account'. Then 'Account settings'. Then 'Security'. Enabled 'Email Login Notifications'.
You should compare these settings to your wife's phone.
I am also on Valhalla Black.

Friendcaster notifications

I just downloaded the new version of the Friendcaster app with the ICS theme, enabled the Push C2DM notifications, said "yes this is awesome", and went about my business. Next time I opened up Friendcaster, I all of a sudden I got a notification and popup with a couple of FB notifications that happened a long time ago. This is annoying. I want to get the notification and the popup when I'm not currently in the app, not just when I go into that app. In other words, the "push" notifications are not pushing. Any suggestions? (I'd prefer not to go with the Gmail method for notifitcations, but I will if I have to until this gets fixed.)

I think it would be better to send the dev an email, because push notification is working perfectly for me.

I know this is an old thread but did you get it to work? I'm having the same problem..

Unfortunately I never did. Just stuck with the gmail notifications, but I haven't tried the push notifications in a while now.

Starting to get really pissed off at this phone-might return unless I can get answers

Here are some things that are really driving me crazy, to the point where I'm considering returning the phone for the s3 or iPhone:
-Sending sms messages (using handcent app) I often get the 'unable to send message' notification, even when I have full service. The notification repeats over and over again until I delete the message.
-Google voice voicemails not sending notifications. I can't see if I have any received any voicemails until I open google voice and all the sudden all the notifications come in.
-no 'favorites' tab on the phone app. Favorites exist under groups, but for some reason you can't put the favorites down on the menu to make quick calls easier.
-uploading photos to facebook using 'facebook for htc sense' or regular facebook app often freeze part-way through, even with good wifi connection.
-Often times when I delete emails on the gmail app they still appear in my inbox when I view gmail on my computer. Also can't seem to make gmail automatically update upon opening.
-CALENDAR NOTIFICATIONS: Even when I turned off the facebook calendar sync so I wouldn't get 20 birthday reminders every day, the notifications still won't go away. Anything I put in the calendar pops up on the lock screen every single time, even the day before sometimes. Should I use a different calendar app? I like using the 'productivity' lock screen, but this "feature" is killing me.
Would rooting/ROMing fix these issues? I'm afraid to do it because I'd still like to be able to return the phone if the issues persist.

It's a new device htc, and our devs are still fixing bugs. But with a thread title like that, it wouldnprobably be best of you returned it.
But a few of you issues are know, and some are user related. I don't think Gmail has ever auto updated when opened just click the refresh button.

1. Use the stock SMS app and see if it still happens. You can't get mad at a phone if you aren't using the app meant for it. Switching phones won't fix this issue.
2. Thats due to crappy multitasking, check out one of the Custom ROMs out there or Scott's multitasking fix. Or one of the AOSP ROMs.
3. You can add favorite people to the homescreens. And I believe this is not unique to this phone.
4. Try a custom ROM, I've never had that issue.
5. Thats the normal way the gmail app behaves. Its not weird or this phone's fault.
6. You need to disable what calendars you want to see and which you don't. Its somewhere under settings inside the calendar app, google it. I had this same quibble but i fixed it by finding the setting for it. Disable "Facebook Birthdays" or something as a calendar.

return it, bye

Please don't leave us. We owe you so much.

An s3 would probably make you happier. The reason you are getting a better response here is because we have had so many omg this phone sucks, omg it blah blah blah, the insert phone here never did this threads its annoying to the existing HOX users.

I know how to turn off certain calendars. I'm not getting the facebook birthdays anymore. What bothers me is that on any day where I have something in the calendar, I get a reminder for it every time I see the lock screen. Once would be enough, especially when the reminder starts the day before the event.

i wish there was a forum where there was a bunch of grown ups talked about real issues, and mods and what not...and not all these baby OMG this phone sucks stuff. Go get the s3 you know what...you'll have issues there too, go get the iphone...you know what you'll have issues there...if a device was perfect there would be NO reason to upgrade. I just can't stand looking at anymore of these stupid threads. I work with two girls one has the iphone and the other the s3....iphone fell on the floor two days ago shattered the stupid glass they have on it...the other that has the s3 has three scratches. I dropped my one x it bounced all over the tile floor...flawless. just saying.

Whaaa Whaaa Whaaa , wow that's all it takes to Piss you off? Especially when there's world hunger and disease running rampant in other countries? Want something to really be pissed about? I paid 12 dollars for a long island iced tea and I didn't even get a buzz.

I got annoyed by the calendar thing too, but for me if I open the event then it goes away.

I'd return the phone if I was you. I think you'd be happier with something simpler like an iPhone. I happen to like tinkering, hence the one x.

1. You can't blame HTC for something not working right with software that you put on the phone yourself.
2. Gmail never auto updates when you open it.

Friday's has a wicked ultimate long island. Pretty sure it's cheaper than $12 and definitely gets you buzzed. 4 of them and I'm done for.

I agree, they're pretty good. That's what I usually get at Fridays. That or their electric lemonades. It really depends on what bartender you get. It can be hit or miss. I've had some really good cocktails there and some really bad ones.

Just give it some time for the devs to come up with some fixes and a solid rom. Even though there are already some, like CleanROM

Are you on the updated software? I had calendar bug until I updated to 1.85

It sounds like that's because you have an all-day event, so every time you see the lock screen that day, that all-day event appears on top. I'm assuming you are using the productivity lock screen.
The solution is simply: when you turn on the screen and see your lock screen, swipe left on the name of the event. That will show the next appointment for today (or the next all-day event, in which case you need to swipe some more). Next time you turn on the phone and see the lock screen, it will show the upcoming event and no longer the all-day event. Doing the swipe is equivalent to dismissing the reminder on the lock screen.
