[Q] Annoying SMS alert when using 3rd party SMS app. Lenovo A806 miui V2 - General Questions and Answers

let me start by saying the lenvo A806 is a great phone and is a serious bit of kit for the price tag (£150 posted from UK, £120 from china). However i didnt like the default sms app so i changed it to chomp sms im sure some of you use it. All is well except when i sent a text i get the following annoying alert and i cant figure out how to block/disable it. This happens on any 3rd party sms app.
I am reasonably clued in with this sort of stuff and have rooted and installed custom roms on other phones (nexus4, galaxy s 1+2). Any ideas guys?
Thanks!

is the sms being sent to a strange number or the original one you intended?

smschat? is the only one?

hi folks..but sms chat is only one? any other softwarehouse develop any sms program?
thx in advance
You want 3rd party sms software? I know that vito makes a sms program and there's another free app called smileysms. Hope this is what you needed.
yes..i want a 3rd part software..for sms because wm is horrible..but i don't like so much smschat..and isn't possible this is the only one ç___ç
I'm not sure why everyon suggests SmileySMS. I installed it, and the **** was horrible. Beyond not looking all that great (yeah, I know... which is debatable), but it was causing... yes CAUSING random soft resets from time to when I got a new SMS and tried to open it.
So yeah, damn that one for me.

Any application that can read SMS' out loud (possibly through a bluetooth device?)??

I wanted an application that could do this but all I could find was the one from blueAnt which only works with their specific bluetooth device...
You could use Tasker and use this profile - price looks high but it's VERY powerful once you know what you're doing.
Comes with a trial mode for around seven days.
+1 for Tasker. Brilliant app.
I have my 'in car' profile set to read texts - on text receipt it pauses the music player, then reads the senders contact name, and then the body of the text. Awesome.
i was planning on getting the blueant Q1 (just found it for $25). are you saying it won't work with handcent in reading a txt message?
edit: forget it...answered my own question by going to their site. "Hear text messages read aloud on your Q1 when connected to an Android device with our Android application."
What about the vlingo application. It has an email and sms reader that reads the message out loud when activated, but I haven't managed to get it to read the message through the Bluetooth headset

Wondering why SayMyName hasn't been mentioned yet... works fantastic even with caller names, mail, Twitter etc.

SMS Speak
Just stumbled across this thread looking for something else. But thought I'd chime in. I use SMS Speak (the paid one, not the free one - two different companies/products), and it works great. I can get incoming texts and reply, all orally. I'm curious about the other products mentioned, though...

Unacceptable losses of SMS

Wondering whether I am the only one with this issue
I SMS a lot and like keeping the SMS on my device. I had recently an extremely unpleasant surprise: my total list of conversations was back to... ONE conversation with my last SMS and... That's it!!! Thousands of SMS gone
I happen to save everything with mIQ and hopefully it's not lost. However I had the experience already twice in the past 2 weeks so I am wondering:
Is this a feature from Android? Big SMS file --> autoarchive? If then how do I disable it or how do I recover my SMS?
Is it a bug? In which case this is extremely severe and not serious for such an expensive device or for an OS that is expected to be a safe one
Is it from Samsung implementation? Or Android itself?
Please share your experience, I'd like to know if I am the only one and if there is any solution (My "old" Touch Pro 2 with WM 6.5 never lost a single SMS although having more than 30,000 SMS in the box)

Ive never let my SMS get to more than 500, mainly because I don't like scrolling through congressional. Never had this issue though.

you really shouldnt keep that many sms around anyhow with android, its likely to cause some issues but did you check the settings on the sms app? mine has settings to delete threads after a certain number and is set to 200 by default.
I use a program called Backup to Gmail. Works excellent.
It let's me delete sms'es on the phone while my Gmail account keeps them all even if I delete them on the phone.
It can also restore sms'es.MMS restore is not supported yet but backup works good.

Yes of course... Besides If I had it set at 200 I would expect to keep at leats 200, not 1
I shouldn't let many with Android ? So with WM6.5 it's ok to have 20,000 SMS but Android cannot handle them ? Hum... Somethng is seriously wrong

Thanks, I know a few of these. Without being able to restore --> kind of useless for me... Actually as far as I remember some CAN restore
I am already using mIQ that works ok (though a bit slow to handle too many SMS)
why would you even want that many, its not like you are going to read through 20k sms
It's funny like the answers are more about having less SMS or why wanting that many rather than why the SMS client or the OS Re broken...
Hey man why do u need a car, just take your bicycle!
I have more than a thousand conta ts I converse regularly with. Then add a certain number of sms per conversation and u get there
Anyway I do not even have that many on my Tab... Far less than on my previous device. And this disappointing device/os/client combination cannot even manage them... What do you expe t me to do or say? Go back to my TP2? Honestly this is ridiculous
meanwhile I'd like to know if I am the only one and if someone knows some fises (other than delet my SMS or but an iPad...)

give handcent a try and use their backup service, ive never had a problem with the stock sms app, currently theres around 300txts for 20 contacts, and 50 or so for the rest.
No problem here as I don't keep a lots of sms. But had a problem with new sms going into the wrong contact profile. So, have to be extra careful not to reply to the wrong person.
Anyone faces the same problem?

Deleting would help more than the purchase of an iPad, as that uses the 3g chip to get a data connection, while both the texting and voice service are ignored.
That said... I never got this issue, but my brother has a relatively similar one: long messages tend to be split, mixed and (why not, since we are at it) partly deleted. That is on Eclair using an Xperia X10 mini pro.
Never had this kind of issue when i was at my peak of sms usage: store on the MMC, and there you go, thousands of sms on a puny Nokia 3650.

[Q] SMS apk request

Hi to all members of XDA community!
Few days ago i become a Huawei Ascend Y300 owner. Pretty cool phone for small price. Everything works fine. I done rooting, cleaning operator crapware and unlocking (bought unlock code from ebay - recomended by Modaco).
One thing makes me nervous. It doesnt have sms delivery notification sound (no vibration also). When message come it shows notification, plays sound and vibrate but no such thing for delivery. I had Samsung Galaxy 3 Apollo and it has that feature. i dont want to use third party sms application or some addons because its inconsistent (tried Messaging Notification from JGUI but sometimes has delivery sound and vibration, sometimes not).
My question is: is somebody capable to modify stock sms apk of Huawei Y300 (currently on JB 4.1.1) or can somebody port from another phone which has that function?
Ofc, Im willing to donate via Paypal to person who help me.
P.S.
My english isnt so good so please dont be angry at me
Maybe this would help.
Go to messaging app
Settings.
Turn on delivery report.
Sent from my Xperia Live with Walkman using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Delivery is ON in the settings but it doesnt make any sound or vibration. Only checkmark is shown (beside message) when message is delivered and toast notification on main screen is shown for second or two. I need SOUND and VIBRATION for delivery reports but most od phones doesnt have this (my friends Samsung Galaxy S3 mini has it. I tried to install sms apk from that model but ofc it cannot be installed. Probably need some modification or so).
Try messaging notification app

[Q] Huawei Ascend Mate 7 E mail Notification Problems

Dear Friends , I just bought my Huawei Ascend Mate 7 MTL 10 32 GB, now with me for one week, I think it is a great device really, i call him the Father of my all mobiles before!. anyhow, I have two problems annoying me , The first one is that e mails reaches the inbox without notifying me once they arrived neither by sound, nor by icon in the notification bar. I have tried every possible setting that you can imagine. more i have searched online, but it seems that it is my only problem(or no one reported it yet)
The notification with sound and in the notification bar only happens when i open the e mail app. it happens mostly with the built in apps (that i setup for my Hotmail and Yahoo) otherwise the gmail app is doing fine.
My second problem is that My Volvo S60 Infotainment system is not fully compatible with the Bluetooth of my new HM7 , as i was able to use Kakao and Viber with my car speakers before with my Samsung Galaxy S5 but now I cannot with HM7.
I really appreciate anyone response about that.
Thanks
you are not a lone
Dear Friend,
don't worry , i have the same issue and still not finding any solution , it is a global issue not only for you and me.
i will try to send an email to huawei to check and send us new update with resolution.

Same problem also for P7 modell of my collegue...seems to be a EMUI problem with certain (customer) applications (Whatsapp also...).
For email I managed it by using GMAIL and application called UNREAD BADGES FOR GMAIL, in other words a widget designed for GMAIL app and available in the GOOGLE STORE (free) and it works. You have to set up well the energy consumption settings and the notification settings, and then it should work.
Well, thank you all for your support and comments, as a matter of fact, few days after i posted my problem here , i spent almost half a day searching for a solution in this forum and over the internet and my conclusion is , Do not waste your time find a solution because there is non, some people having notification with e mail only like myself, others has it with Whatsapp( more annoying) , i read a full thread here in this forum about every possible solution for the problem, from settings of notifications , power saving , Network settings for data and Always on Wifi. Actually reading that thread was extremely interesting, some people are trying to help the one who started the thread (Mr)(Microdog), others sarcastic and Microdog desperately wants to solve the problem as he likes the phone so much (just like myself) and then at the end guess what? the guy decided to sell the phone! and others persuading him to wait, it was so so funny. i loved it. although , i did not find the solution for my problem but i realized that we human beings have remarkable built in desire to help each other no matter anything( I am not religious by the way) , any how , i decided to live with the condition till the new update will come by end of January or February 2015 may be it will solve the problem, because trust me this is one of the best phones that i have ever had!
NB: for you who want to have a look on the thread that i mentioned above (may be it will work for you) please look here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-7/help/push-notification-data-screen-off-t2985489
NB: I think in one of the posts , there is someone is doing some app to fix the problem, i tried it and it is not working , and unfortunately it delayed all the e mail notifications more , so i had to uninstall it and did hard rest, so please take care.
wishing all of you the best, thanks

yeah, i was one of those who tried to help.). i even persuaded @microdog to not sell his mate 7, but i guess i was too late.
I received b127 update a few days ago but there is still the problem with the e-mail notifications. I have the exchange notification in the panel and blinking led as well but without any ringtone.

Well, that is a disappointment, I was expecting this guys in Huawei will fix that issue with the new update. I think maybe the problem is in their EMUI . We have to raise this problem to Huawei again.
Same problem here !
I had to use 3rd party app "myMail" and it's working great !
100 % than stock email app !

It is the stock email app, although i do experience times where i miss sound notifications, when i have switched between vibration and silent modes. I can't seem to figure out the trigger.
As for email, I use Aquamail, but have also used , cloudmagic, k9, blue mail and boxer, all notifications worked (i tested a bunch to see which had best push times and battery usage).
The notifications worked on all third party email apps for me, so i think it may be an inherent problem with the stock app, but could also be a system wide issue as i do get sound drop outs for some apps randomly as I mentioned before. I have checked all the notification, power settings, screen off etc.. so i think it may be a system bug, corrects on reboot. Hopefully next update fixes it.
Huawei Support - Useless
i sent many emails to Huawei support team but i didn't receive any feedback from them since 10 days

Go to settings > protected apps and protect them. Otherwise they may be unprotected and closed when you close the applications. In order to receive the notifications, the application must be running in the background to work. It consume more battery but there is no other way.
