Anyone made a flashy LED hack? I would like to get an external notify for Google voice texts
Related
I'm on calk's ICS FB06 rom, and the ICS-4-ICS fb06 theme, and for some reason I don't get any sounds when I get a text. Volumes all the way up, notifications are turned on with a loud default alert selected, etc.
I get no sounds and no vibrations despite receiving texts, and despite the LED light showing up
I hope there's an answer to this...
In Gingerbread I had my PhoneCall and SMS notification sound different from Email notifications / Facebook.
My basic set up was:
Phone - Ring Always
SMS - Sound Always (and Buzz)
Email - Buzz - no sound
Facebook - nothing.This way I more or less didn't need to change my settings every (except in meetings when I'd sometimes slide it to silent (buzz only)
Maybe I'm going missing something obvious (I hope I am) but ICS seems to have broken this functionality. I couldn't find any notification setting specific to GMail, and I can't find any way of separating out SMS and Email notifications (Without 3rd party apps).
Can I do this in ICS?
If not, Google have quietly been working evil...
You might need to set the notifications in the individual apps. For me, it's only ever had sms and ringtone options in the standard settings

Thanks, That was my first thought... I understand that this was google's rationale for the change that they made in ICS - from the core OS point of view, a notification is a notification (whatever generates it), and its up to the individual app to allow you to configure specific sounds. So far so good (if tedious compared to gingerbread). BUT... the Gmail app doesn't allow you to configure notifications. Perhaps the answer is to try a different email app, and configure it to play a silent MP3 file.
I use tasker to create custom notifications for each app.
Contacts have customised sms tones and certain apps will only vibrate once.
I've also used it to lower volumes in games automatically and enable rotation only in gallery
It doesn't matter what I do. I've tried every single thing I've found on here. No matter what I set the notification sounds to in handcent & gmail, the notification sound that plays is the system default notification sound. Even if I set it to silent the default always plays. I want to be able to distinguish the difference of when I get a text & an email. Someone please help!!! I've been sitting here for over 3 hours trying to get this to work right. What can I do to fix this?
I just noticed that the stock messagin app wont vibrate or play sound notification while "Message/call voice notification" is activated.
Love that feature - to hear who is textning you without having to taking the phone out of the pocket.
Maybe I have boken this feature myself somehow, but however I try I cant get it to work

I simply can not enable the awesome voice notification at all anymore. I used to, but now its just not "press-able" in settings.
Since the vibration on this watch is so weak I cant feel my text notifications I'd like to get audible chimes when receiving one. My watch will ring for calls but I cant find anyway to enable it for texts. Is there an app for this or is it something I'm simply overlooking?

I use light flow from the play store. Mostly because it controls other stuff on the phone.
