Hi,
Is there any way to leave sms delivery report on and have its notification sound turned off (as well as vibrate) ?
Currently, as I can see, this notification settings are the same for delivery report and actual sms message so when I send a text I get a sms like delivery report which annoys me.
If you use a third party SMS application like Chomp SMS or GO SMS/PRO, there are separate options for notification ring and vibration. You should deactivate entirely the notification from the built-in messaging application though, or else you'll get double notifications.
Another advantage is that on these third party applications, SMS receive confirmation can be set to be muted, independently from the new SMS notification. So you can receive confirmations that do not make any sound whilst preserving your new SMS notification sound
I have the same problem, I've just learned to live with it though. There is literally no option in the menus to remove it though.

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.

The same notification sound is usually played for all incoming messages on Android by default.I want a different sound for different notification .
Can you change the notification sound for New Voicemail, New Text Message, New Mail etc.........and can you change the shut down sound
To change the text notification, go into the Messaging app, hit Menu-Settings, and then change the ringtone. The same can happen for the Mail, Gmail, and Voicemail apps. You just have to go into that app to change the sound for that app.
It's really annoying when I'm talking on the phone and... VVVVvvvvvt...VVVvvvvt...VVVvvvvvt... the phone starts vibrating because of an incoming text, email or some random alert. Not only is it startling to the side of my face but the person on the other end is like, "WTF was that?"
It there a way to disable vibration notification when the phone is active?
It would be nice, but I don't think there is. I usually tell people I am walking by cows...
You can try a alternative messaging app like handcent SMS. It has the feature to turn off vibration during calls.

I probably should've clairfied that I'm using GoSMS which I really like. I've used Handcent, Chomp, etc and have settled on GoSMS.
Besides, the vibration alerts come through for any incoming notification; Gmail, Ebay app, txt, etc.
Changing text apps to resolve the vibration issue would only be part of the solution.
This is a really annoying feature.
Thanks anyway.
EDIT~
I just discovered a way to disable text msg vibration during phone use. GoSMS has a setting under: Settings> Advanced> Notification Settings> Default notification settings> (waay down at the bottom) Notification on calls> toggle "vibrate on calls" on/off.
Now if only there was a global setting to disable this...
for incoming calls go to Settings / Call Settings / Turn Off Vibration during calls.
in CM 7 you have an global Option to disable Vibration during Calls.
I have tried a few notification apps, like LedMeKnow ... and there is a thing I can't find: voice message notification. Most apps do missed calls; issue is that there are technically missed calls the phone is not aware of: when it's out of network. Some providers send SMS in this case. When the other party leaves a message, you get a message icon.
All I want is a LED + vibration reminder when this icon is on. And I can't find any app doing this.
Hey ya's. I'm using an N5 with stock 5.01, rooted with twrp. During the night I used to use a tasker profile for when sleeping that did pretty much what priority Mode does by allowing my started contacts calls and messages to get through and alert me. With priority Mode now available, I use tasker to just trigger that instead.
But I'm having an issue with my messages. I use Handcent as my default messaging app and when I get an sms from a starred contact when in priority Mode it does not sound. I installed google messenger to check and when it's set to default messaging app I get the notification since no issues. Switch back to Handcent and no luck again.
I use Handcent because I like the pop up alert in it, but more so because I can schedule sms messages for a particular time, which is a feature I do use a bit. So if rather not change from it if I can help it.
Just wondering if anyone knows why the alert doesn't sound in Handcent during priority Mode, and if there's a work around?
Something to try:
Settings > Sound & notification > App Notifications > Handcent > Enable Priority
You bloody champion! Seems that was it. Didn't even notice that setting was there. Rippa!
This setting allows all notifications to come through, even from non-starred contacts.
