[Q] Reject Call Text

Hey gang,
Long time no see. Just made the leap to the One X and have a few questions. Here the first...
When receiving an incoming call, the screen could be unlocked, or it could be locked.
If it's unlocked, there doesn't seem to be an option to reject a call and send the default SMS to the caller - either with one click, or a two (actually THREE)-step process as below.
If it's locked, you're offered the multi-step process of dragging the reject icon into the lock ring, then the UI offers you the send text option that, when selected, doesn't just send the default reject SMS, but rather asks you to pick one from your quick text list, then send it. It doesn't even default to your like, default...?
Weird thing is, there's a place to define the text for your default call reject SMS in the phone settings.
So. Where am I going wrong?
-V

As long as we're discussing it, it also seems that the response-text will only go out through the default messaging app - there isn't any way to use GV. Any ideas?

[Q] How to see gtalk notifications but NOT message text

Hi,
I've been trying to disable talk application to display text of incoming messages (security risk), while still being notified when new message arrives. Not an option . You can either disable notifications for good, make them pop up (even worse) or have it as it is by default: showing you a line of text from last message you received.
I installed trillian IM hoping it would have the option I need, but with no luck. I'm perfectly happy with talk app btw, but lack of this option is simply plain old stupid.
Does anyone know how to resolve this or some other IM messenger that I could use instead, which has this nice little option?
Cheers

Won't get a notification and/or vibration when I get a message

It has been like this for awhile, but it hasn't really been bothering me I guess until now I realized the importance of it, which I should of done this long ago cause it's been like this for a couple of months. Notifications are on, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

So, with notiication, do you mean just the sound and vibration? Or also the message in the upper tray?
It's not much information. So here are some possibilities:
- you have installed a skin and have not selected any sounds.
- in the accessability men you have set: play no sounds/feedback at all (it's for deaf people)
- You have some kind of do not disturb mode on, without the notification in the tray saying so.
- You have backgrond syncing of, and now apps only sync when you use them. So you get no notification.
- sound settings and vibration settings are off (not likely of course)
- the phone is instructed to play notifications to another device (watch or some other bluetooth device)
- your phone is not working properly. Try to restore to factory default and see if it is something in the software, or hardware. If not working after reset, ==> waranty
EDIT: in the title you say: when I get a message. you mean text message? NOtification sounds can be changed. Sms messages can have their own sounds en settings. It's in the sound menu.

Alright this may help or not, but let's say you message me thru the default standard messaging thru the phone. Usually, the recipient would get a notification of that message, shortly after being sent depending on the area's signal. I, however do not get a notification, vibration, ring, I do not get anything that notifies me in any way that I got that message, so I could being doing whatever on my phone, receive an important message about work or something, and never know about it. However I do have Smart Launcher and the messaging icon does have notification numbers to the top left of it, but that doesn't help really.

Where did you check if notifications were enabled. In settings AND in the app itself? you can also try to clear cache and storage of the app.

Ok I'm dumb notifications were on when I went thru messaging, but when I went thru the application manager they weren't on. Honestly don't remember how that'd happened, but thanks for the help bro.

[Q] Incoming call as notification only Phone app after answer

Hi there, I just can't figure out why, even after installing google phone 20.xx the app does not appear on an incoming call. Instead I get a notification box with decline or answer. I hate the swipe up anyway but I can't find a way to get rid of this notification box on incoming calls. The really bad thing with ATT is that it only rings 3 times. Often that is not enough time to get to the phone to answer it.
Nova Launcher and AOSP AEX 5.5. This started after the 5.5 update. I would also like to replace the system dialer with the google 20.xx apk so if you know how to do that that would be great.

Question How to create a Reminder if call is declined with a Text message?

Hi,
Can't find that setting anymore neither in Phone app settings nor in Reminders settings.
Not available anymore?
Thanks!!!

Well.. you need to slide up during a call and Remind me in 1 hour option is on the top of the text message list.
Who could have thought..
