Is their such a thing as Invisible Mode in whatsapp? And can it be done per contact ?
By Invisible mode I mean that no one can see if I'm online and can't see the last time I was online.
**Hope this is the right place for this question
No, there isn't.
Ok, maybe their is an option to prevent from people to send me messages when the only sign for that will be the second green tick?
I can think of using droid wall to block internet traffic for that app if you are rooted

I don't want to block the app just specific people traffic...

I hate how my screen turns on when I receive an sms message. I only need the notification icon in the taskbar and the led blink and if I disable the notifications from the settings the screen does not open but I loose the other notifications as well. Any ways to fix this?

Bump
interested in that too
Don't know if it's possible with the stock app, however if you're willing to use a 3rd party app, Go SMS does have an option to keep the screen off and quite possibly other apps do too.

switch to HANDCENT SMS, it is the best sms app, i am using it for a year now. Go to setting and disable pop-up. Now when you receive a message, it will vibrate, led will blink, but screen will not turn on. You will ses the message in the notification bar.

That's what I'm using right now but I want to minimize the use of third party apps as much as possible . Plus with handcent sms when I send a picture or video it doesn't work. I have to use the regular messaging app in order for my mms to leave successfully .

strange, people use handcent just for mms and you are having issues ,, might be problem with settings

Still no solution for this one. I don't want to use handcent or go sms for two reasons. First I like the simplicity if the stock samsung app and second I use the direct call feature that only works with stock app. There must be a way to hack the default messaging app to stock opening the screen when receiving a message.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
BUMP. This feature is sooooo annoying!!!!
It irritates me also. I've used Handcent on every device in the past, but I don't want to for some reason on this one. I actually rather like the stock messaging app.
I suppose I'll go back to Handcent. The screen on is annoying, plus it creates a temporary wakelock that drains the battery even more.

Hello, is there an app the when I get a message or email sect the screen buttons will flash or light up. Not rooted so it can't be BLN... thanks!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using Tapatalk 2
I don't believe you can get the 4 buttons to light up for notifications without BLN support.
You could try NoLED from the market. It's not exactly what you're looking for, but close. It does chew battery though I believe because it keeps the device in a wake lock, at least it did way back when I tried it on my captivate.

Might as well just root and flash a ROM that has bln though.

If I have 2 notifications from the same app, the first one disappears and the second one takes its place in the status bar. Is there a way to change this?
Do you have a ROM installed. Or any tweaking apps?

No, completely stock. All my apps are pretty standard stuff, I think the one that does it the most is the bank of America app. As I'm typing this I'm realizing that most other apps give me all notifications. So it's not all apps doing this, just some. Is that part of how that particular app was written or is it a phone setting somewhere?
Has anybody gotten their hands on the new hangouts apk? What are your initial thoughts? Care to share the love?

I think it's a pretty good step...
I like how you can select the manner in which you would like to communicate: hangouts/sms/google voice, which gets me wondering why they're saying Google Voice isn't integrated.
One thing I don't really like, is that it opens a new chat/hangout even if you're on 1 contact. I think it would be cool if you carried the conversation with the same person within 1 window regardless of method (sms/hangouts/gv), but that's just me.

It freezes up on me every time I send a mms.
uninstall reinstall to fix.
Other than than its awesome
Looks nice, but I'd love to see them add a widget or two. I've gotten used to my messaging thread list taking up a home screen, which is very convenient.

So I downloaded the new 2.3 APK, and I didn't get the Google Voice integration of texts and voicemail. I do have the ability to send and receive calls, but there was no prompt nor an option in settings to get texts and voicemail. Am I missing something?

I just downloaded it last night. Was never a big fan until now. I love the integrated dialer that you can use wifi to make calls. It's pretty cool. As far as your prompt, try clearing data and opening it up again as that was the first screen I saw - asking if I wanted to turn on sms. I hit yes and it imported all of my messages right from the stock app, which I promptly froze...
I got that, its now my default SMS app, but the google voice texts aren't integrated like it should be. Other are reporting being able to send texts via hangouts as your google voice number, but the only option I have is at&t.
Some are saying its by invitation only right now. No invite means the option in settings will be hidden

Oh... I got it now. Sorry, misunderstood you. Yeah, the only option I have for sms is my normal number.
Hey I figured it out. You need to have Google voice installed. Then hamgouts asks if you want to integrate google voice SMS. Say yes. Them there is a new setting in hamgouts SMS that allows you to default send from your phone number, google voice number or SMART RESPONSE which is whichever number you last used for that contact...

Mine works as intended without Google Voice installed.

Probably a bug with hangouts, but notice the capacitive buttons still respond when in a call. That is, when the prox sensor gets tripped, capacitive buttons should be disabled, but they're not. Doesn't seem like the screen is shutting off entirely. On another phone, in a dark room, I can still seem some backlight.
Per the title, is there a way to mark a message as spam/junk? I'm using a live/hotmail address, set up as exchange (I think). This option was always present on my previous galaxy devices. I'm hoping I'm just not seeing it.
I haven't used it, but I seriously doubt there isn't a spam/junk folder. Has to be something you are missing. Is there a spot for all folders, maybe something you need to expand?
I just did a quick search for it, to try and download. I came across someone that was complaining about all of the collapsible folders. Probably where it's hidden.

I can find and manually move stuff to my junk folder easy enough, but that doesn't mark the spam to be moved there automatically next time. My previous Galaxy stock mail apps all had this option and it worked effectively.
Based on prior experience, I would prefer not to have to revert to a 3rd party mail app.
<rant>
It seems like removing basic features from newer versions is becoming a trend with all types of software lately.

There is a junkmail folder in my corporate account but I cannot mark an email as junk like I used to on pretty much all my other android phones. Pretty weak.
I see Sent, outbox, draft, inbox, and even trash, but no junk/spam folder. Oh well.
