Hi all,
Is there anyway you can set individual notification sounds for different google applications?
I really want gmail, and talk to have osunds just for them. But I cannot seem to find the option. I am therefore assuming that it is hard wired that they have to use the default sound but heck you never know!
SORRY JUST WORKED IT OUT

Friends,
I´m writting you to ask for help for a ancient problem I have with WM (since I had a Touch HD). I use a lot the calendar function and also the reminders.
But, I´m facing a terrible problem: the phone is not showing the notifications anymore. The curious part is that if I set a Task, the phone wakes up and rings. But if it´s an appointment, it doesn´t wake up nor even show any notification icons or sounds. I have lost some appointments due this.
I have set all settings to play sounds; hard reseted the phone and installed the programs I most use and tested to see if would play the sound and the notification. After one week of "stability" (I mean, the phone was giving me the notifications and I didn´t install any programs), it stopped again to show APPOINTMENTS reminders.
Has anyone faced this problem? Do you know a solution to this? I have an HD2 with stock T-mobile ROM.
Please, help me!
Moved to HD2 QA. As it is not related to Windows D&H.

You need to check your notification queue.
There are tools that clean it up. I think SKTools have this functionality.
Any idea how to change the background that appears when listening to a Google Voice downloaded voicemail on the GS2? I can't tell where this image comes from, it's not in the wallpapers anywhere.
That's stock audio player background image.
Thanks. That led me to a search to find a way to change it but it looks like that's not possible (although some people have said it accidentally changed!).
I guess I'll just have to connect with my feminine side when I listen to voicemails.
Or you could download the Google Voice app...which let's you check out all the voicemail stuff at once.
Duh! I've got GV, but I've been clicking the link in the email I get for all voicemails, which fires up the Media Player. Guess I need to get used to going directly to GV instead.
Thanks!
Hi all - I have searched high and low but have never found an answer except "it can't be done". Is it possible to change the default notification sound for the Yahoo Email App? I know it can't be done through the settings but I would think somewhere you could change the name of the sound file it is pointing to or overwrite it unless of coarse it is simply pointing to the phones default sound through code that I can't get to. It sucks not having something unique to distinguish Yahoo mail from default phone info.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
Here is my pseudo-complicated situation: I have a gate sensor at the front of my property that communicates wirelessly to my automation system. The system can then notify me via text or email anytime my gate sensor is tripped. I would like for my phone to simply act as a doorbell by just making a sound anytime someone drives through my gate. So far I have accomplished this but unfortunately for my organized & partially OCD brain, my phone's notification bar is overloaded with messages that I have to clear several times per day. Basically, I would like for it to make a sound but not to show any icon or notification in the pull-down notifications menu.
I have tried several SMS apps (Handcent, GO SMS Pro, Chomp, Textra and stock) and have been unable to find a way to accomplish this. The closest thing I've found is to use the "privacy inbox" on several of these apps that allows me to place any messages from the automation system into a different inbox. I'm able to give it a different sound, different icon and different (or no) LED blink color. Unfortunately, this still leaves my notifications pull-down menu riddled with alerts from my gate sensor.
I don't know if there is an Android-based work-around or if anyone can recommend a decent SMS app that would give me this option. I have tried the same thing with email but not only do I run into the same problem, but the delay in the syncing of the email defeats the purpose because the person will usually already be at my door before I hear the tone. Because of this, I would like to stick with the SMS method.
There may also be another option that is outside the box that I have yet to consider.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi everyone. I've finally managed to get my Google calendar on my Huawei to give me notifications for Reminders! However, I would really like repeating reminders on these notifications in case I don't see or hear the reminder or just plain forget to do what they say! Ideally I'd like the notifications to keep going off every couple of minutes if I don't respond to them, and Google calendar doesn't have this functionality at all, as far as I can tell.
I tried a Program called calendar Notifications Plus, which looks perfect for my needs, but doesn't seem to work on my phone, it simply doesn't pick up on any reminders I set, so doesn't actually do a thing on my system.
I noticed that in the Google settings you can specify an alternative calendar app, so I was going to try that with a third party calendar app. Does anyone have any recommendations for an app, ideally with this repeating functionality built into it, and on top of that I'd like to talk to Google assistant to set up the reminders if possible, like I do currently.
For example I say "Hey Google, remind me to punch a badger at 12pm today" and it sets up the reminder which gets put into the thirtld party app, which will notify me at 12pm and then continue to vibrate/play a notification sound every 2 minutes until I dismiss the notification.
Anyone have any experience running a setup like this please?
Thanks so much!
P.S - I really wouldn't recommend punching badgers as they (a) don't like it (b) can be quite vicious, and (c) often carry tuberculosis. ?
Ah, turns out the Alternative calendars setting isn't for alternative third party apps, but for alternative calendars, like Chinese, Hebrew, Indian, etc.
So I guess my new question is - does anyone know how I can get notifications to repeat and keep beeping/vibrating every couple of minutes until I dismiss the notifications?
