I thought this would be easy to find a GOOD app for this but it hasn't.
I'm after an app that will give reminders for notifications other than my calender and sms ones eg missed call, facebook, facebook messenger, touchdown email, etc.
At the moment I have calender snooze for my appointments which works great, and also go sms pro for messages with its inbuilt repeat reminder.
Now does anyone have one that will work for other notifications and not interfere with with my existing reminders, well I could turn go sms repeat reminders off i guess but not calender snooze.
Still Looking
Should have turned this into a battery thread about a cheap 5500mAh battery for $15. Woulda sure had replies
I can't quite work out specifically what you're after, but this seems to fit the bill.

Thankyou. Sure to give this a go.
Stupid thing is I searched a fair amount and all I found only did missed calls or text messaged etc.... Maybe I just left key words from my search and used the wrong terminology.
But this looks like it works for whatever program that has normal android notifications to be added. So can leave go sms pro out of the list and this won't duplicate the good built in repeat reminders.

In the facebook application, hit Menu -> Settings -> and look in Notification settings.
It should say "Notifications: Active" hit the checkbox next to it to turn it off
He's talking about the messenger app, not the facebook app itself.
So far as I know there is no way to turn off the notifications in the messenger app itself. I might make more sense to just uninstall it seeing as the normal facebook app lets you use chat when you want to anyway.
No I'm talking about just the Facebook App lol in it u can disable all the notifications individually besides the messaging one

Yeah, I'm having the same issue with the Facebook app for Android. It seems that you are only allowed to disable message notifications for a certain amount of time before it automatically re-enables itself. Pretty annoying, especially since I am using a messenger-aggregator app that gives me notifications for Facebook messages too. Any help would be really appreciated
So any option to disable chat notification forever? I only get them de-activated for 8 hours every time
hi we are just talking about facebook message notifications not all notifications, im looking for this one also....
is really stupid that you cant disable this.... what is the use of disable this for 8hours???
And you don't want to just get rid of the app?

what about log out from this app
It seems like any other notification can be disabled permanently but the messages one. Very stupid and extremely annoying indeed!

This works for me. I hate the msg app as well but like other notifications. Did this for each person I talk to. And it stays off perm after doing this for each user.

I'm having the same problem. I don't want to uninstall the app, or turn off all notifications, because I'd like to still get notifications on wall posts and comments.
As others have stated, I also use a messenger that puts gtalk and facebook together, and it's just annoying to receive double notifications for facebook messages.
It seems people are misunderstanding what is being asked.
Facebook has a great deal many different features and gives notifications for each individually. Notifications of new posts are separate from notifications of new comments are separate from notifications of new messages etc.
We all want to get Facebook notifications *except* for messages. We want to be notified when a friend posts to their wall or comments on a post we are involved in. We do not want to be notified when some one messages on Facebook... or rather... do not want to be notified twice.
Both the Facebook app and the Facebook messenger app will not let you turn message notifications off. You can turn every other notification off individually or you can turn off all notifications completely... but when you disable just the one for messages in either app it tells you when it's going to turn it back on. We want it off permanently without losing our other notifications.
I get hundreds of emails every day and I currently get a notification but no audio tone or vibrate as it would be going crazy. This is how I want my general email notifications set up. So that part is fine. What I do want however is for starred messages to play a tone/vibrate similar to my text messages. I went into Gmail and then Manage Labels within the menu and I confirmed that 'Starred' is set to sync all and ring, vibrate, notify once. This to me seems like it should be notifying the way I just described that I'm looking for but there is no different notification for starred messages the way I had hoped. What am I doing wrong here?
Anyone? I can't seem to get this to work no matter what I do.
I've been looking at alternative SMS apps because I wanted to get rid of the MMS showing as slideshows and it looks like the only one doing it properly (displaying the image and text inside the conversation view) is SMSdroid, which doesn't have many other functionalities. Is there another SMS app doing that? I tried GOsms, Handcent and ChompSMS but I could have missed their option to do so.
Another question I have is why so many SMS apps run a service constantly while some don't and still receive incoming SMS? I try to keep as few services running in the background as possible to save battery life.
Is there a way to split notifications in Android Lollipop. Would like to have a separate notification for every WhatsApp message instead of a grouped notification with all the messages (also with phone calls or SMS). Similar to iOS... Some applications like Calendar do it, but for some reason for GMail (same email address), WhatsApp, missed calls, etc they are only grouped and don't know if can split them into separate notifications. Can I? How?
Thanks!
