Just thought of another old touchwiz issue. Can you disable notifications for SMS within the messaging app? Its a google voice thing.
Thanks.

I see many people use chompsms and handcent application on their Hero. Why? I have downloaded the chompsms to try it out, but I had to check both applications to remove the "new message" notification in the status bar.
What is the advantage of applications like chompsms?
I can't say anything about ChompSMS or Handcent, because I don't use SMS enough to worry about using something "better" than the default app.
However, your first point was that you had to clear two notifications - in the settings for the standard SMS app, you can switch off notifications so presumably this is what you should do if you want to use another app for SMS.

It used to be on the CDMA Hero, that the default messaging app was buggy and drained our batteries severely. Anymore, it's a preference thing. Some of them have more features, a different look, etc.
For me, handcent has the advantage of a nice popup option built in and the ability to automatically resize pictures for MMS.
I use handcent sms because of the many settings-options you have and because of the blacklist function!
Standard app was just too.. standard
just installed Handscent sms, it looks identical to iPhone sms, lol.
SMS Popup is the best one I've tried.
I found the Handcent UI options weren't as sleek as the default app.
Was running handcent but when in landscape mode it crashes so switched to chompsms no more issues
i know i was reading it somewhere, but when installing a 2nd sms application like handscent or chomp, dual notifications occur.. is there way to remove that?
Go to defualt messages app. hit menu turn off notifcations.

Tried that and it doesn't work. I get both the Handcent and the envelope icon. It is getting annoying.
Anyone know if there is a way to apply voice notifications to a third party messaging app?

Bump? Is this possible?
I just integrated my Sprint number with Google Voice hoping that I would be able to text from Galaxy S4, Nexus 7, or Chrome extension. This seemed to work, but I would get duplicate threads from the same person. I read where showing "SMS & voicemail in Hangouts" with Sprint integration will cause problems (https://support.google.com/voice/answer/6023920?p=voice_sms&rd=1). When I turn that off my duplication problem seems to go away. This puts my texting back to the way it was before integration (buys me nothing). I am not really interested in any of the Google Voice functionality. I would like to receive SMS/MMS from all my platforms and thought integration would provide this. Can this be accomplished and I am missing something? Running Galaxy S4 with SACS-NG2 at the moment, but also run CM11-M9.
my wife runs integrated gVoice on a S4 mini with no problems. She uses Hangouts for everything.
Never had a duplication issue.
Did you make hangouts your default messaging app? If not, this could be the cause of your duplicate messages.

Hangouts is my default messaging app. Duplication is related to "SMS & voicemail in Hangouts", but without that can't send/receive texts from my tablet.

Disable Hangouts and go to whatever app you were using for messaging. Enable that app and uncheck notifications in its settings. Reenable Hangouts. I have noticed for some reason when Hangouts is enabled it does not disable notifications from other messaging apps. You have to enable the old app to disable notifications and then go back to Hangouts and enable it.

It's not a notification problem. The texts are duplicated or the sender will be duplicated with one message blank.
When I get a voicemail on AT&T I get a notification from within the phone app and the AT&T visual voicemail app. How do I disable the notification for the phone app? I can't seem to find the setting...........

When I go into app notifications I then go down to the phone app, but not seeing an option for Voicemail.

Yeah you would have to block the phone.
Have you set the default voice mail to what you are using in the phone settings. I have mine set to Google voice and I don't receive any carrier voicemail notifications.
Open phone app. Settings-->calls-->voicemail. And set default to what you are using.

So when I go in there the only options for VM that I can select is my carrier which I think will still produce the prompt. So I took a screenshot of the number and blanked the voicemail number to nothing. My hope is that stops the phone app and then the AT&T app will continue as applicable. Will have to test it.
I have my default messaging app setup to use Textra but ever now and then I get text that come through on the LG messaging app. Is there a way I can stop that from happening?
I use Textra as well; I just disabled the messages app and have had no problems.

Thanks, I can force stop the LG messaging app but it's not letting me disable it.
Confirm Textra is set as default messaging app. Sometimes a setting doesn't stick.

Might help to clear the cache in the Textra app and the stock messaging app, and then reboot.
I use Textra as the default app and this just started happening for only one sender I get his notifications in the default Android app which I cannot disable. All other message senders come through in Textra

It could be a bug.
Perform any updates and if the issue still persists, do a factory reset.

What could very well be happening is that that sender is sending you RCS messages. Right now textra doesn't handle them but the stock messaging app does.
To deal with this, go into the messaging app settings and turn off Advanced Messaging (not sure of the exact option name). This way your phone will not advertise itself as being able to accept RCS and the other person's phone will know to send you regular old sms.
