Alright, so I got a bluealert bracelet as an early christmas gift. It vibrates if I get an incoming call, or if my phone goes out of range of the bracelet. I love it thus far since sometimes I will miss a call because my phone is in a position I can't feel it vibrate.
My only problem is that is doesn't vibrate if I get an SMS or an email. Ideally it would vibrate once for a sms or an email, and keep vibrating for a phone call.
My question is how so I get the thing to vibrate for those as well? The phone views it as a headset via the bluetooth manager.
If someone can make up a little app to do this, I would be willing to paypal them $40. Nothing pretty, just something that tells the bluetooth to vibrate X number of times if a sms or email is received, and leave the incoming call functionality untouched.
Thanks!
vibrate
Which phone do you have?
A titan with DCD's latest rom on it.
I doubt $10 will cover the cost to fix your issue.
Problem:
The bracelet receives "Incoming call" alert and vibrates on that.
The phone thinks it's a headset so you can only send it headset actions.
Let's assume it's as dumb as they get and simply vibrates when there's an auto channel open to the bracelet. Then what you need is for something to momentarily open the audio gateway to the headset when you receive a new message.
If you simply wanted vibrate on messages then I say look at Jetware's solution to manage voice notifications to bluetooth headsets.
Now if it's smarter and actually knows that it's an incomng call then the problem gets larger.
alright, I installed jetware's software.
When a message is received the green light on the bracelet flashes for longer than usual, but it does not vibrate.
This is with sms and email.

Could you post the cab for the jetware notifier?
This way people can actually analyse the notifier and perhaps patch it or modify it.
Here it is.
Your problem here is that there isn't a "vibrate my headset" command. This is usually a function of the headset that is vibrates on the "Incoming Call" alert.
This behavior hints that the bracelet is aware of "Incoming Call" verses "audio gateway opened" which isn't good for you.

Is there a *.jcf file on your phone?
That is the config file.
Maybe you can edit the incomming SMS part to match incomming call.
On the other hand, Kyphur is probably dead-on right with his analyses.

last time i checked it was perfectly okay to request custom software in dev and hacking, which is what the op is doing... he just needs to reword his thread title to reflect that properly.

Edited. Thanks.
For now, we agreed on requesting software in the Q&A section.
The problem:
I would like to use SMS/Whatsapp like iMessage; one inbox and when sending auto detect method (SMS/Whatsapp)
I have been googling for this subject for quite a while and I can't seem to find the solution and I really don't (want) to believe that this has not been developed yet; Whatsapp is cross platform and therefore would be better than just iPhone to Iphone, BB to BB etc. How could they not have developed this yet @ Whatsapp...
@admin / mod,
Sorry for placing the question in the wrong section. I can't seem to find out how to move topics either (guess my number of posts clearly reflects my noobism). If needed, could you please move this topic to Q&A
I Think this imposible. Whatsapp it's a third party app. Whatsapp cannot integrate with any brand.
Maybe in the future we use RCS (Rich Communication Suite). It´s a chat system that integrat in any phone.

It's actually perfectly possible. If the whatsapp developers included SMS in their app then it would be what the OP is asking for. It's just a 3rd party SMS app, and there's plenty of them around.
In answer to the OP, get in touch with the whatsapp developers and ask them if they have any plans to integrate SMS. What you're asking does make sense, but it doesn't currently exist, so go suggest it

Moving to Q&A
I've seen all kind of apps 'manipulating' and catching in / out going text messages so whatsapp should be perfectly capable of doing such a think. The thing is; I thought I wasn't looking for it correctly. It simply cannot be that I am the only one thinking about this with the release of iMessage. To bad I cannot code a thing like that but this could be a money bomb if whatsapp fails to take on the market.
Workaround...
i came across the same thing the OP wanted , and its simply not working , whereas if long tap contact > send message > and i choose "viber" , it works perfectly... think its something whatsapp developers have to fix....
workaround....
but , if u click on the contact portrait , then u will have that pop up with all avaliable communication apps , and u click on whatsapp icon , then it will redirect u to that contact's chat window..
i know its not as convenient as setting it the default sms app , but there is nothing we can do about it but waiting for the developers of whatsapp to fix that...i attached a screenshot of it...
hope this helps....
cheers...

The latest WhatsApp feature is generating a lot of duplicate threads on XDA, drowning other threads in the process. Many are also posted in the wrong section. We're closing down all invite threads to keep the clutter down to a minimum. Instead, please use The Consolidated WhatsApp Calling Thread as a consolidated thread for all discussions related to the WhatsApp calling feature and invites. Thank you!
***UPDATE*** As of the 21st of February WhatsApp has again paused the roll out of the calling feature, so you cant call a person anymore to activate it. It has also rolled back the version from 2.11.531 to 2.11.527. I will post an update here once the activation process works again. Hopefully the next time we see WhatsApp Call, it'll be in a public release.
Users who have already activated the feature can continue using it.
***WhatsApp Call has been re-enabled on the newest update of WhatsApp available on the Google Play Store.
Although the feature has not been listed in the What's New list, it has been officially included in the package. However the feature can only be activated if another user who has already activated the Call Feature, calls you first.
Thanks goes out to XDA member - Osma for giving me the activation call.
Download Links
Google Play Store: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.whatsapp
External Link (version 2.11.531): apkmirror.com/apk/whatsapp-inc/whatsapp/whatsapp-2-11-531-android-apk-download/
N.B. Since this feature is still in the beta stage, a few users have reported a few glitches and bugs in the program.
Give this post a :good: if it helped you.
Find screenshots in the attachments below. The last screenshot is of an ongoing WhatsApp call.
