So I'm trying to use Google Voice for my viocemails an so far its working fine. Now my question is, why are my incoming sms messages now going through to google voice and not my regular text app? The voice mails are coming in fine, I just don't care for the texting part. Anyway to stop this?

Handcent notification sounds 3 times.

Whenever I get a sms message and the quick reply icon pops up the "droid" tone goes off 3x in a row for only one text.

That's probably your messages tone plus hancent tone. Turn of the tones

I went into messenger and turned off through notification tone, now I get the sound twice instead of once. Anymore tips on where this extra tone is coming from?

Might check if you are getting send notifications
Send notifications? What's that? Where is that?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Had the same issue. Sent notifications are when you atte notified when the message is received by the person you sent it to.

Still can't figure it out, it goes off twice now but I cannot figure out why. I only have stock messenger and handscent installed.

Are you sure you don't have anything like SMS Popup, chompSMS, etc? You may have to just start randomly turning off Handcent features until you figure out what's causing the issue, assuming there really aren't any other apps installed.
Hey it's most likely the beautiful widgets pack 2. The sms one sends it. Just uninstall our disable it

This actually happens randomly on the sense sms app somtimes too
speaking of handcent, has anyone experienced handcent re-sending old messages out after rebooting?

[Q] Screen turns on when SMS received?

I assume that this is the way the Sensation or HTC phones are? The screen does not turn on when receiving an SMS when using the native app?
Any apps that I could use to make the screen turn on when I receive an SMS apart from switching messaging apps?
P.S.: Has a solution for the 5 minute LED notification been found?
Thanks so much.

But then what pops up is SMS popup's app right? I just want the screen to turn on as I turn it on usually and see the message on the lockscreen...
I'm sure there's an app for that, but usually when I use it, the popup is gone and the screen will be on and the message In the lockscreen.

Getting double smsnotifications need a

I just installed cm7 rc1 and I installed handcent SMS and I'm getting double messages from both apps instead of justhandcent. I k ow you can disable the notifications for the stock and disable auto retrieval so that way it o my goes Into handcent but it doesn't work on cm7 rc1 for some reason . I tried freezing the stock SMS but that makes the messages come like I want it but it wont notify me till five minutes later. Anyone who can help? Thanks!

No need to disable auto retrieval. Just diable notifications in stock messaging app and all notifications will be handled by handcent.
I tried that too and then handcent stooped notifying period for some reason *cry*

[Q] gmail notification problem

hopefully this isnt a dumb question but when i have my phone on vibrate, it never seems to vibrate when i get an email. it vibrates for texts but not emails. i haven't found any gmail notification setting.
Open Gmail app. Menu. More. Settings. Choose your email address. Labels to notify. Inbox. Choose vibrate always.

thanks alot, i cant believe i didnt find that option
No problem, GMail recently updated the app and changed the settings. It used to be really easy to find. Now it's hidden in some dark corner of the settings.

My phone isn't notifying me of SMS.

I can't for the life of me figure out why, but, my phone isn't notifying me (making a chime, or lighting up the screen) when I receive a SMS. Even if I'm using the phone I won't get a notification (meaning nothing happens in the status bar) but if I scroll across my hangouts icon I can obviously see I have new unread messages (Tesla unread plug-in). It doesn't seem to do this ALL the time, just most of the time. I've tried switching SMS clients and the same thing happens.
Any ideas?

I've had that happen before, usually the stock message app is interfering.
