Trying to find information on a good app for stock 3D to repeat a sound for notifications. sms, text and missed calls is a must but would also like to have a notification sound for other notifications that do not make a sound if thats possible.

There's been this issue with the Nike that when you enable vibration on incoming SMS alerts, it will at a certain point vibrate endlessly, and the only way to stop the vibration is to pull out the battery (if I can recall it right, even a soft reset won't stop it).
I don't know if there has been a fix for this already but I'm just gonna post this for people who wants their phone to vibrate when receiving SMS
The workaround is really simple, just download the app OS Remind Me here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405071&highlight=hide+sim+contacts
Enable the vibration option and check the option "Unread SMS". On the "Alarm Sound" option, choose another kind of sound, one that makes less noise like the Default.wav, BECAUSE it will play at the same time with your default SMS alert tone and will mix up the sounds. Finally, make sure the program is running! Don't close it, use the "hide" function so it stays up and running.
And taadaaaaa... every time someone texts you it will vibrate
Thank you to whoever made this app!
I'm finding I'm missing loads of text messages & would love it if the phone would alert me repeatedly until I finally notice the sms and read it.
I have dug around the phones menus but with no luck. Not sure if I'm just missing it as I'm new to Android (loving It).
Is their a setting to enable this feature or will I just have to choose a longer/louder sms notification sound.
Thanks.
use handcent SMS, you can set how long the phone should vibrate, and I also recommend NoLED

Thanks, I'll take a look at those.
also SMS Popup, which I prefer to Handcent...
Thanks, gonna have a play around with both and see which i prefer.
SMS!Alert
You can try SMS!Alert.
Allow you to create custom alerts based on SMS messages, enter a incoming phone number and/or keyword filter, when someone sends a SMS with the keyword filter text or if incoming phone number matches, phone will display sound alert.
Apologies if this has been addressed already, but I didn't see any posts about this. I want my SMS app to silence the notification tone when I receive a new text if I'm already inside the actual app. For instance, if I'm texting someone while inside GoSMS, right now the notification tone sounds while I'm typing and the other party is texting me at the same time. I only want the notification tone to sound when I'm not already in my SMS app, because it's rather annoying to get a loud tone to notify me of a text that I can clearly see already.
Similar to how the iPhone only sounds the notification tone when outside their SMS app, but does not sound the tone while the user has the SMS app open.
Is there a way to do this? Perhaps another SMS app that has this functionality? I've used GoSMS and Handcent and have not seen this option.
Thank you!
Bumping thread...anybody know?
So my mom and I both got ourselves an S3 and she keeps complaining about the notification sounds.
Basically there's the ringtone, and then there's notification sounds for EVERYTHING including SMS. What she wants is to have a tone for SMS and another for calls, and the rest of the notifications silent (mail, facebook etc.)
I couldn't find an option to separate sms tones from the rest, so I'm at a loss.
I hope you can help me, as google proved to be utterly useless in this case
edit: A fix that does not include going into each app and making it silent. She has no patience.. at all.

You could use Go SMS, and set up the sms notification on there. Then make the default notification for everything else to be silent in the system sound settings. Works for me.

I did consider that, but the lack of patience and hate for something that's different (She's a former apple user -.-) might get in the way. I'll ask her though. Thanks ^^
Even better, as Go SMS has an iphone theme which will make it look just like what she's used to!

To have a separate alert tone for each you need to set the tone from inside the app itself, I.e open up your sms message app press menu key press settings scroll to the bottom where it says notifications and simply alter it from there. Hope I've helped you.

Hello,
I am running LOS 16 in my Nexus 6, and I can't find a way to set the messaging tone for incoming SMS. There's simply no button and no option. In the setup there is one option to change the overall notification sound, which is valid for all apps and all kind of notifications. I only want to change the sound for incoming SMS.
What is even more odd: if I choose a particular conversation and choose "options/persons" I can set an individual tone for that person!
In other words: the app can set individual tones for every sender, but not a general tone for incoming SMS.
Is this a bug? Or did I really not discover the right option by now?

you should ask on the ROM's own forum, or ask the devs of that ROM.
Which forum would you recommend, that is allowed for non-developers and is being read by the right people?
