Light up screen when receiving SMS? - T-Mobile HTC One (M7)

I've tried searching everywhere...
Is there a way to turn on the screen for a few seconds after receiving an SMS/MMS, etc.?

You'll have to use a third party app. Try "Glowfly" from the Play Store.

[Q] Facebook notifications not working?!

So I've had this problem for a very long while, in that I get absolutely no Facebook notifications! Well, save for some random notifications for messages, and often times I don't really have any new messages, or the app isn't able to fetch them from the server. Tried uninstalling then reinstalling the app, clearing its data... this was on Froyo. Installed Gingerbread, installed the Facebook app from the Market, and still no notifications!
Does anyone have any idea what's wrong?
The app sucks its not the phone

Well I guess it's not the phone but when I first got it, notifications came without any issues. And suddenly they stopped. :/

That's a bug in Facebook apps, sometimes you receive notification and sometimes you don't. Try other Facebook apps like friend-caster- they have an option to post notification to gmail.

Well I don't use my Gmail address anyway. And yes, I was considering FriendCaster, but it seems they haven't included Chat yet.

Same problem
I had the same problem a while back, after much installing and uninstalling and double checking the notifications from my laptop and phone, I concluded that the problem was really the app, shows how buggy apps can be. I've been getting message notifications from the app (since I was offline in chat) but the messages were never shown under "Messages" nor in "Chat". Notifications on the other hand most of the time work properly. There were some instances on the previous updates that it did update, meaning there was a number there in a red circle, but when I opened my notifications, no actual new updates were there, although it appeared on my browser.

Yep, there's nothing we can do about it, unless we want to code a program ourselves. Well that's just me...

Anyone?

Are you talking about the "What's this song?" widget? If so, I just downloaded from the market place and it works fine. If you are talking about the Google search bar, it works just fine on Nova Launcher, worked as a widget on Sense, too...

Weird, it's not in my apps list anymore, nor can I find it on Google Play anymore, but it is still working on my phone perfectly...
Android Police has it.

It force closes the app. I think we need the APK for it to function.

Has anyone been able to get the stock Android Dialer installed?

Google Play store says it's not compatible; I've tried various APKs and when I go to install they also say incompatible.
That sucks. What might be the cause? I know the S8 can install it.
I'm also having the same issue... The LG phone app is horrendous

This is the dialer I'm using...https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...-7-0-140861421-nonnexus-android-apk-download/
When you go to the link, scroll down to "Download APK". Don't install a newer version, because it probably won't work. Or if you do and it does work, let me know.
It's the stock Google dialer, and everything works. I've used it on several phones lately. When you install it, make sure and go to your settings menu, then apps, then Configure apps, and then set the new dialer to be your default phone app. Easy as pie

As per the notes on the thread, this older version is the only one that fully works on Non-Nexus devices. The newer patched versions may install but are often buggy and lack the necessary framework for spam call rejection and other features.
oh wow...i didn't realize the dialer required framework and such to use those features. kind of second guessing my ordering of the V30 now...
Perhaps this

Does your dialer have the voicemail tab? I'm on T-Mobile and have to use T-Mobile's Visual Voicemail app on my unlocked phone. I couldn't get the voicemail tab to show up and there was nothing in the settings that could activate it. I tried a SIM card pulling trick I saw on Reddit but that didn't do it either. Thanks!

I can check when I get home tonight. I’m using my iPhone right now. I’ll let you know later.
Edit...I'm home now and looking at my V30 with the Google dialer, and I don't see a voicemail tab anywhere.
How did you enable call screen or dialing screen to stock one? On my v30 only the dialer screen showsup and the calling screen is LG one.

You have to ensure that the Google Phone app is actually properly set as your default Dialer/Phone app. I had a similar problem until I did that. Under settings, go to apps and then click on "Configure apps" under the three dot overflow menu on the top right. Make sure the correct app is listed under "Phone app".

Anyone installed the November 7th update - G965USQU3BRJ5

If so, noticed any differences or problems?
Installed it this morning, so far running normally.

On the stock messaging app, I keep getting
"Turn on Read Confirmation"
Allow Contacts to see when you've read their messages.
Cancel Turn On
Pretty annoying with every single thread of message. I dont want to turn it on because sometimes I'd like to ignore some people that text me. I've done everything from clearing cache and data.
Got it on the 7th, everything is running fine.
Thanks. I use a 3rd party text app, so if that's the only issue I guess I can live with it.
Can you mention in which countries you get it?
No update in Romania so far.

Question Google phone/dialer

Hello friends, I am considering to buy Redmagic 7 and wanted to know if anyone is using Google dialer with it. Last time I checked was for Redmagic 6S and Google phone didn't produce a ring when a call was received. Is it still the same? The reason I am asking is, Google phone is kind of important for me as it has automatic spam blocking and nearby places functions.
Greetings,
I just installed now and tried it out, I called myself and the sound/vibration was working.

huge thanks for trying it out, it was almost the most important downside for me. Did you make the Google Dialer default app, or is it just standard install?
I've got the phone a week ago and have been using nothing but the Google dialer as the default dialer since first boot.

Did you change both the Phone and Call apps to Google Dialer in Default app settings? Do you also use Google Contacts app, does it sync?

Yes, I deleted the stock app just to be sure, and it was working fine (as default, since it was the only app for calls) Tbh I forgot about Contacts app, just installed and... well, what cannot work here XD? But all in all, it's all fine
