Can anyone helps set up custom alerts for different notifications. I get 3 different types of pages to my phone and I want a different alert for each. I would also like a different for 2 different email accounts. I was able to do this with my old tp2. Please help.

Good question. I am interested in this as well. Coming from a lowly Blackberry 8350i on Nextel, I had this feature of multiple notification sounds for different messages!
You can set up separate alerts by going into the settings of each individual app. In messaging hit Menu>Settings scroll down and see option for notification sound. Same for Gmail.

Thanx. But how do I set up different alerts for text messages from different people. I get pages from work from different systems and I would like different alerts.

There's an awesome app in the Market from a dev here on XDA called WhoIsIt that can do this. The best way to describe it is like a notification app on steroids for OCD people, and I mean that in a good way!

While using widget soid the notification s don't work unless I set it to pop up. Any ideas on how I can fix this?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
SOL bro.
The phone itself must have integrated within it a policy that allows one to directly change settings from the notification menu. They say that HTC (and I guess SGS phones) has this.
Otherwise, no dice.
Glad to see somebody else using this app though. I absolutely love it
Oh well. Its fine using popup.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Does anyone know how to change the way the calls are accepted/declined? I do not like at all the way you have to put accept/decline in the ring. I am using a stock device. Called HTC about another issue and mentioned this before hanging up and they said no. If I can't change the settings for that maybe a 3rd party application if it's available.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
If it helps at all, you can answer a call by pulling the bottom large ring up to anywhere on the screen and just use the little icons for decline call.

I didn't know that. Thanks for the tip. I do like that better than what I do now.

When I got a message or notification while my screen was off it would light up the screen automatically to show you the notification on the lock screen. Is there an android alternative?

go sms works perfectly as you described, and its my choice, but see what works best for you.

Honestly I looked into a few of those recommendations but I chose Tasker with the plug in Secure Settings.
Now I can choose to wake up my screen on any notification for a defined amount of time before it turns off automatically.
Tasker is a very powerful system app. So if you haven't tried it, I highly recommend it. It's a paid app ($6.95) but very worth it. If your skeptical go to the developer's website for a trial.

Tasker is pretty awesome. Amazing things can be done with that app.
Not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting you to say that Tasker is your solution.
Agreed with slix, go sms works great

True, I've had multiple iPhones as well. I actually HATED that feature and I still don't like it on my note. It should come with a damn LED notification like 99% of every android phone.

Is there any way to customize the vibrate patterns on LGOG? I checked in settings but I don't think I see such options.
I just hate the default long vibration.
Settings, sound, vibrate type.

Wow, so this mean that the Sprint version of LGOG has this option but the ATT one doesn't? That sucks..
I never would have guessed software would be different between the two. Oh well I still love my new phone

I use the "SMS Popup" app which allows you to do custom vibrations for receiving texts. You can specify the milliseconds for vibration on/off. Mine is "0,200,100,200,100,200,100,200" for 4 quick vibrations.

Kind of reviving an old thread here, but I've only had my phone a couple weeks...
I wanted mine to vibrate longer so I tried SMS popup after reading this thread. The vibe pattern stuff worked ok but I found a few downsides (didn't seem to be able to activate the notification LED, seemed to deactivate the lock screen sms icon 'new messages' indicator) and our phones' built-in sms popups seemed a little more useful (but uglier) to me, so I stopped using it.
Today I stumbled on "AutomateIt" which can trigger events on incoming SMS, and one of the actions is vibrate of a custom length (not patterns). That seems to work pretty well for me and I can probably make use of some of its other features as well.
Anyone who has not seen this app should definitely check it out. I'm loving it...

Does anyone know how to disable it from showing up on the Widget Locker lockscreen? I'm trying to have it so that I have to unlock the phone to see the pop up, but it's not working for me. I put com.ninja.sms in the disable popups thing but it still pops up.
Bought it. It force closes after minimal use on our device. Stock sense 4.

Very odd. I've given it a good 2 hours of total texting use since yesterday on a Sense 5 ROM with no force closing at all. Try re-installing it?

Trying out this app one thing I don't get is how do I send messages? And is there away to see all my messages using ninja app? Or is this app only a quick text reply app.
Edit: so I guess it's just a quick reply app.

Why pay for this when it does the same thing as facebook messenger . .? Or does it do anything that the chat heads doesn't do bc I can watch YouTube or be on xda and when someone txt me I can't reply quickly to that person or multiple people

This was available before chat heads was so that's part of it.
Also chat heads has seemed laggy to me when typing multiple messages where I don't have that issue with this.

This is a pretty neat app. I think it's pretty useful I like the pop ups. Works with Verizon messaging app and obviously stock. They really should come out with a full message app.

Best SMS app I've tried.
I'm very picky with sms apps as I don't like the idea of sharing my my sweet nothings with someone else's server (paranoia alert!) but, this app does what I want without that fear. I like the idea of picking who it alerts to and that I can keep my chats minimised while doing other things. I use sms flash and this app works really well with it as I use that app to alert me for pin codes and everyone else (because I don't use the reply feature) and Ninja for the important peeps. Cheers Dev!

It doesn't popup on lockscreen though. I find that a must have feature that gosms has. I would also like to initiate a conversation on it and you can't.
