I don't know if there's any better way to unlock the screen and have a pop up windows to show you GV txt. I know there's email pop up app. Anyone forward his GV txt to gmail, so when there's new txt, you will get a pop up window.
There's another app, called flashlight alerts. I think it will consume a lot of battery, if you txt a lot.
Anyone knows?
Idk. I cut off the emails for gv. The sound notification is enough for me. but if u use something like handcent that has screen wake pop UPS, in gv u can select send as a text

I'm looking for a simple standalone application that notify me that i have a missed call, better if in a nice visual style.
Just like the SMS Chat notification, but for missed calls
I tried S2U2, it can do that, but i'd like to have an app that has only this function, without locking phone or notify me also sms....
Does such application exist??
there's something called iCaller .. look it up.
My TP2 stopped making any notification of incoming text messages or e-mails. I thought that incoming e-mail/ sms was controlled by the sound control, and that when we turned single volume off, we were setting one volume for ringing and another for system.
Silly me, I thought that System was e-mail and SMS message. But it looks like it is only things like low battery. Am I correct?
Where the heck is the control for e-mail volume. Also, I am trying to make distinctive rings for some individual e-mails. I have been able to go into an individual contact, edit contact, and then go to ringtones. But will that give me an individual ringtone when they call, or can I also get an individual alert when they text or e-mail me.
Then net of my problem now is that e-mail reception is silent. Then when I get the sound back I want to know if it is possible to get individual alerts.
Thanks.
Settings>Sound>Advanced>
make sure Events and Program Notifications are checked.. and go into Notofications and go through the pull down menu and make sure new email and new txt and new mms have sounds selected and checked "play sound"
Thanks. I did not make it deep enough into Notifications.

Can you have different notifications for a new email and text message?
Do you mean different audio notifications? I use Ringo Lite so that I can have different audio tones for text messages from different people, as well as to let me know when I have e-mails vs text messages, etc. Works fairly well. Only major complaint that I haven't bothered to figure out yet is that if I get an e-mail or text during a phone call I still get the vibration and sound (which can scare the crap out of you! lol)
Hope this helps.

open your messaging app

DUH! I see, I just noticed the one under HOME SETTINGS, I see that is for the default. Thanks.
I'm running KelLMSKing MIUI and wondering if there's a way to set a custom notification sound for a contact? Or if anyone can recommend an app that allows it? I had the option when I had a CM7, but now I can't remember if it was CM7 specific or Go Contacts that I was using that enabled it.
And even cooler would be if there is a way to set a default notification sound for contacts not in the address book.
Any ideas?
Isn't that a stock feature of the contacts app?
Start the app, contacts tab, choose a contact by clicking hte name, press menu button, "options", choose ringtone.
Oops, sorry I should have been more clear. I mean a text message notification, not ringtone.
There are different SMS apps in the market.
Handcent SMS can do what you wish. An alternative is GoSms Pro.
Ahh, it was a feature of Go SMS that I used to have. I just installed Handcent (since I've already tried Go) and found the option to change the notification sound for a contact.
I was hoping there would be a way to set a notification sound for contacts not in my address book, but there doesn't seem to be. In other words, have a default sound for everyone, I can customize it for some, and a different sound for someone I don't know. Mostly so that I can set it so that texts from Facebook will sound different, and can be ignored.
As a workaround, I will try adding all of facebook's numbers as they come in to a contact.
Thanks for pointing me to Handcent!
EDIT: It's a terrible workaround. Even though I can add all the 326-123-45 numbers from facebook into one contact, Handcent assigns the custom sms notification to the number, not the contact. So then I'll have to go through and edit the notification for each one anyway.
So now I'm still looking for a way to assign a custom notification sound to unknown contacts.
Does anyone know what happened to the notification reminder that we had in the note 4 stock message app? We used to have the setting to where we could have our text tone chime again like every 10 mins reminding when we have a text.
I sure relied on it and now I miss it.
It's in accessibility
I took me minute to find it too, HOWEVER, i am still having a terribly frustrating problem, too. I set my message notification tone to one sound, but when it does the reminder, whether it a text message or or not (facebook, or email, or anything else) it only goes off in the DEFAULT tone. So the only way I know is to STOP what I am doing and go look at the phone. Which I would only do I if it was a missed TEXT. Any ideas?
