Hi guys.
I want to allocate SMS alerts tones (not ringtones) to specific contacts with my Honor 7: can I do this?
Samsung’s TouchWiz, has an option to add a message alert to contacts, i.e. “Add another field >message alert”. However, Emotion has no such option. The facility to add a specific message alert to a contact doesn't exist with EMUI.
If this can't be done via the OS can anyone recommend an app (other than Ringo which doesn't work) which can allow specific alerts/message tones to be allocated to individual contacts?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Sadly could not find such an option in EMUI. you can give RINGO a try. It is available in the play store and the free version will meet your needs.

Thanks, but as I mentioned I tried Ringo and it doesn't work with EMUI. Ringo requires the stock SMS alert to be silenced, so in fact I then get NO alerts at all: it's as if EMUI isn't aware of Ringo. I've used Ringo before with other Android devices and it's great, even the free version, but it doesn't function with EMUI.
I knew I was taking a gamble buying a lesser-known brand (were this an Samsung problem there'd be petabytes of online answers to this issue...). Shame, as I love the phone for many reasons - looks like I'll have to revert to Samsung if no-one can help. :crying:

I apologise for my mistake and someone will be able to help you for sure.
Another idea is to use some other messaging app like go message etc. They might have this option.

Thanks for your reply, however, I've tried Chomp SMS and Textra, with no luck (i.e. no option therein to allocate SMS alerts to individual contacts).
I can't believe I'm the only Honor 7 owner to feel this an an issue that Huawei needs to looks at...
But you mentioned "go message"? What's the formal name of this app please? I can't find it on the Play Store (only "Go SMS", an app that enables SMS's to be sent via PC)

Yeah, it was GO SMS but I checked it out along with other contact apps but it comes down to emui not assigning a custom notification tone for a contact... I am out of ideas, someone else might have a few for you...

I agree, Mike, this is a feature I had taken for granted with having used Samsungs. Very convenient and I wish it were possible with the 7x
Curious,did u ever find a workaround or are u back to using Samsung?

Hi,
I have been semi interested in this SMS system. Mainly because I like the idea of integrated systems with Facebook perhaps.
What do you guys use? I know there is the stock SMS but i don't know - it just doesn't appeal to me any more
Or more importantly, I would love an SMS system which could put a hidden prefix of *0# at the start of each message (and not show it that I sent it like that when viewing messages) because my network requires this stupid prefix for delivery reports.
Your suggestions would be very much appreciated
Edit: Ok skip about FB integration. Seems FB get annoyed about others using their service but happy to leech other people. Hmm..
I used Handcent SMS since forever, but now for some reason it's no longer available on the market.
I found GOSMS and am actually quite happy. I like it better than Handcent. And the themes are pretty cool, especially Machine City.

Thanks for reply Though I guess more importantly for me is the prefix idea. I don't suppose you know or heard any similar SMS program that would do this? I did add it as a feedback suggestion to these guys. No idea if it would be implemented though.
Did you delete the stock SMS?

I'm also using GO SMS PRO and for me it's awesome, but I don't have very big requirements. For normal user it has got everything, for sure it's better than stock sms app.
E :I'm not sure that an app supports adding prefixes.

Just a little side project im working on. As the pictures show, this app will be Material Design inspired.
(ignore debugging toasts, and duplicate sms in conversation card (drawback of using your own number as the sender/recipient). Also noticed the reply screen has a limit on characters shown per item.
Cool!! How would this work though, because wouldn't the SMS apps themselves have to support the canned resposes? Or this its' own SMS app?

Let me explain the process going on in the back end.
-SMS is received(hangouts only used so far)
-SMS sender address is grabbed from the SMS and the corresponding notification is cloned
-cloned notification is used to build a copy of the apps notification (including conversation page, if applicable) and the custom reply action is added.
-the new notification is only seen on the wearable, and is interact-able via voice or responses.
-only issue remaining is getting the original notification to clear only on the wearable so a seamless experience is provided.

Ok so here is the very first preview of WearResponses (v0.1).
As I mentioned this a teaser of the free version, so the number of responses is limited to 3. Also this is limited to Hangouts SMS currently, but that will change soon.
There are few 'issues' remaining but I felt it was stable enough to at least release to show what the final product will be. They are:
* Original Android Wear notification for the SMS shows on wearable.
* When Hangouts notifications get stacked, any SMS's messages beyond the original are not hijacked - yet. This is still being looked into.
Otherwise it is free for you to interact with and play with and get a general idea.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B31FWKrWuS_AbUdIWFBhXzktZ28/edit?usp=sharing
Once ready, this app will go up on the Play Store with an unlock key to access unlimited responses, plus new features down the road.

It took a while to figure out, but it seems the little envelope on the side gets mistaken for the button to pull up the quick replies.

Hi
I'm a few days away from my OGWhatsapp app expiring and am desperate to find an alternative as I travel constantly between countries and having two active whatsapp accounts on my phone is an invaluable part of my life.
I've stumbled across some alternatives from this site:
http://faresandroid.blogspot.com.es/2015/01/4.html
Namely, i'm looking at ENWhatsapp and SAWhatsapp. I'm wondering whether these apks are ok as I fear installing any sort of malware or SMS trojan on my Samsung S4 Mini Duos i9192.
Many thanks
I use this one and think it is perfect, no isues in months. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2339647
Thanks. Does it notify you of received messages from both accounts instantly or do you need to switch between accounts to pick up the messages?
Use this xxwhatsapp
https://www.dropbox.com/s/bwqhldcwrdx350w/xxWhatsApp1.15-1.apk?dl=0
It's base on Ogwhatsapp mode last version. But it's still working. It's modified in order to not to be detected by the expiration of the 472 whatsapp server base.
Thanks MuD-GMZ. That seems to work well. Only thing is that I have to switch between the two accounts manually to see if i've received messages. A little bit annoying.
ppsa, is xxWhatsapp safe? I get the same pre-installation access warnings as SAWhatsapp and ENWhatsapp. What particularly worries me is the access the app has to sending and receiving SMS's (see attached screenshot). Not sure this if this normal though considering that I guess the app needs a whatsapp verification code via sms to activate it.
What do you think?
Many thanks!

Exactly. That's why I want to know if any of the other unofficial whatsapps are safe so that i can have two whatsapps active at the same time
In the end I tried ENWhatsapp + other variants and none of them seem to work. I get an error during the installation process that oddly states that '"the app expired on May 18th 2060"!!
I am, though, using a Playstore app called Disa Beta:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.disa&hl=en
It has a strange UI but it allows me to do exactly what I was looking for: have 2 whatsapp accounts simultaneously active on my dual sim phone.
I've used it, but it's not as friendly to use
It works again? Thanks.

This module helps you avoid some annoying contacts/messages on WhatsApp:
- It stops sending read receipts (blue marks) until you reply
- It stops sending availability status until you interact with the contact
- And it stops sending the composing/typing status
This module should support WhatsApp 2.17.x and newer versions only.
As many of you know, WhatsApp app is proguarded, which means the classes names may change on each new official update, that's why i use a brute force method to get the right hooks, this way the module should keep working over many WhatsApp new updates.
The module is open source, you are welcome to help with coding and bugs reports on the module's Github repository.

What do you mean by popup? Quick reply?
Actually I was expecting the opposite.
According to the way I implemented the module, your WhatsApp client should not send any read receipt for a message A until you reply, then if the other person reply again with C it gets marked blue but A "may" not get marked.

Great module, thanks!!!
is it possible to implement it in the way, that user would be able to activate it only for certain contacts?
not mandatory for all, for selected only black list, white list?
and another feature - button with "mark all read"
like later i would like to let people know that i read message, that it was actually read, like day later or week later, press button and send mark read status for all previously unread?
possible to implement not sending one 2 tick - received status? so people would think i didnt even received it but i already did?
like in whatsapp++ mods ?
and question:
how this module is behaving on group chat where ticks works differently?

Quick replies should behave the same way as normal replies, so the next received messages should be marked.

You must be activated from the privacy options of WhatsApp, the option read confirmation, and when in a conversation, you send messages, you can see when they have read, but when they will send to you, they will not know if you have read the message.

Sorry could you explain the different versions.. I am a little unclear.
v1 will never show read receipts? and v4 will show read receipts only when you answer a message?
