Is there an app that will do this? I would like to be alerted to all notifications that show up on my phone. I know there's one that does SMS but, I'm looking for something more versatile. I rarely use SMS.
Could Tasker accomplish this?

+1 for this, would be very handy
syncsms, tablettext, there are several of them.
Try GtalkSMS from the market. Uses gtalk and will do what you want and more. Was one of the first apps i installed on my prime.

I don't totally follow that app. Do you load it on your phone and tablet and the tablet can get notifications of what is going on on the phone? So if you get an SMS or phone call to your phone it tells you on your tablet?
I agree with the OP that it would be cool or nice to get a Growl notification or something in the notification bar on the tablet if I get either a text message or a call - nothing more than that do I need.
Tablet Talk is what I am using and it works great. I think I paid $2.99 for it but it has been well worth it. It needs to be on both your phone and tablet so check it out in the market to see if it might be of use to anyone.
If you sign up for Google Talk, and link your Google Talk account with your cell # you can have text messages sent to your cell show up on your tablet (or anywhere else really). I have used it and it works great.
Same here with Gtalk. I've used that on my phone, and then my desktop and now my tablet. And any message I get will show up on all three places. It can be a little flaky when it comes to showing whos online (meaning sometimes it will show someone as online but they aren't), but other than that it works very well.
It seems a lot of you are only talking about SMS. A lot of people don't even use SMS these days.
I pretty much exclusively use WhatsApp for all my texting. So, I'm looking for something that will send me Whatsapp notifications. Really, an app that could push notifications to my tablet my from apps I pre-select would be ideal. I guess nothing like this exists at the moment.

Thank you for this. It's a very nifty app once you can set it up. Wish it had a GUI that would do the communicating for me. Unfortunately the incoming call alert does not work.
Have you figured out the Tasker integration? I can't get it to work.

Tablet Talk seems like a viable solution too. Though it wouldn't be of much use to me since I'd essentially be paying for the ability to get incoming call alerts.

This sounds pretty clean compared to installed 3rd party apps. I have sms enabled in labs but I have no idea how to get my # linked to gtalk. Can you point me in the right direction?

does this affect how sms are received on phone? i really like go sms for texting, and dont want something else taking over or double notifying me
I currently use tablettexts but mysms is a bit **** compared to gosms... especially not being able to send texts when you don't have any signal (instead of queuing them to be sent when you do) so GTalkSMS sounds like an awesome solution - can you use it from the UK though? I'm having a bit of a problem setting it up - is there a guide or anything anywhere?
SyncSMS will transfer your sms notifications to your tablet

Looking for an App that will let me send texts from my touchpad to my phone,
I have seen a few but i really want to hear what other people are using to get it done. or if this is just something i like the idea of
I have a google voice account but i hate that it doesn't use my real phone number, also before you talk about the integration, its UI is horrible so i would rather not use it.

I don't know about texts because of your touchpad doesn't have phone signal, but why not just email yourself?

get an IM app
I think he just wants to be able to use his tablet to send texts via his phone. Meaning, he can come home and plug his phone in and use his tablet to send/receive texts from his phone. I am interested in the same thing actually. I don't wanna tote my phone around with me, if I'm chilling downstairs and using my tablet.

if you havent done so on sprint. get on Google voice.(its free for sprint) u can use the official Google voice apps on your tablet to send text thru wifi, also received them.
i tried a bunch of apps on my touchpad but never found one that works as good as google voice. my touchpad and phone are both set up with google voice and it's integrated with my sprint phone number so no weird number to deal with. works great for me. only thing is once you integrate, no more going back to vvm unless you call sprint to get it set back up.

Ummmm...did you even read the OP?
I have been looking for the same thing for a while. I have been using Airdroid which is webbased and it seems to work ok for me.

Thank you for at least reading the OP
If google would spend about 20 minutes working on google voices UI I would probably use it.
I will look into airdroid, tablet text also has a decent amount of good reviews so I have been looking into that as well

Personally I like the UI. And the speed between syncing is almost instant when you have push notifications enabled. Here's a screenshot of it if you want to see it

I use mysms on my touchpad. You just install the app on your phone and tablet and then send texts from your tablet. I use it on my touchpad and works flawlessly.

Just an fyi: If you want the push notifications, you have to press the version number like 10 times or something (I didnt count I just hammered it until the option became available lol)
TexTab without question. I love it, and the UI is nice and simple (uses BlueTooth). It uses your messaging app in that it uses your phone's signal and leaves the text message in the history of the conversation on your phone.

When I bought my Transformer Prime, I looked at a couple. This one is great. Called Heywire - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mediafriends.chime haven't had any issue. send/receive pics, it's immediate when sent or received. plus it's actually free.

I have a better one for you go to Google play and search for mightytext, this app can be used on Google Chrome and the tablet and the flawless features are: sending mms, making out going calls, and it has notification of your text and the people who call you.
Plus one on mighty text. Use it in chrome and loaded the website on my iPad a few times

Now that there are so much options for push messages in the new facebook app and the messenger was integrated, I thought that the push messages would finally work. But they don't. Is there something I have to set up for it to work?
I mean what the hell is so difficult to make that feature work? I don't get any notifications for new messages, not to mention about any friend requests, likes etc.
Do other apps' push notifications work well for you?

Yes, this problem only exists for the facebook app! The messenger app does work fine though.

Did you ever log into your fb account with a blackberry? Because that seems to activate push notifications somehow.
Check your phones settings. Settings > Accounts & Sync.
Check your push frequency within the Facebook Application. Unsure of where it is. I deleted the application all together. Too much of a battery drain. Good luck

Works very well and integrates SMS, MMS and Voicemail into one app - it's sort of a "super" visual voicemail" - plays back voicemails nicely. I prefer it to VVM
Lol voicemail. What an ancient concept.
TextSecure for SMS and mms. Encrypts your texts locally and if the receiver is using textsecure as well then the text can be encrypted from end to end.
I won't go into detail about why I need this but there it is. Use it

It may be ancient but I at least wanna know what the message was that was left. VVM isn't even close most of the time.
I installed this app and it looks nice. I did find out though that after doing this, I could no longer send messages using the stock app nor using handcent. But I may stick with this app.
Update: Well I uninstalled this app and I still can't get my stock app or handcent to send a text message. Any ideas how to fix this? Getting to just do a nandroid restore.

Hello,
My question is, "Is there a messaging app that tells you when the other person is typing a message, similar to iMessage"?
Thanks.
Google hangouts does that.
WhatsApp Messenger also.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using xda premium
Thanks all, but they require the other person to have the app. I need a universal one.
GoSMS Pro works OK. typically it will receive the message outside the group and repost shortly thereafter.

You aren't going to find one then. Even iMessage requires that the other person has iMessage (to let the other know when they are typing).
Google Hangouts is essentially the same as iMessage.
