[Q] Repeating audio alert on missed call? - Vibrant General

Can anyone recommend an app for this? I've heard mixed things about "MissedCall" -- I've searched the market, and can't seem to locate many alternatives. Thanks.

To answer my own question (and if anyone's curious), I installed an app called "Missed Reminder" -- seems to work well. Nice customization settings.

Any Fable sounds/tones?

I am looking for some new ringtones and notification alert tones. There was a game called Fable, and it had some sounds in it that I think would make pretty nice notification sounds. Problem is, I can't seem to find anything that I could do this with. I figured there would be a sound board for it, but I have been unable to find one. I also looked around for a while on Google hoping to find just some sounds from the game, but again, no luck. So, I was wondering if anyone has these sounds or even an Android sound board for it. Also, any other nice ring tones or alerts anyone knows of I would be up for trying. Thanks!
Hi! Go to market and dl this app called Zedge. Under Zedge, do a search on Fable, theres a few of the tracks of the game you are talking abt
Thanks a lot! Checking it out now. Hoping I can find the specific one I was looking for.
Blah, didn't find the one I was after. Thanks for the app info though, looks pretty handy either way.

[Q] Speak caller ID

Dunno if I'm just crazy. I could have sworn at some point I saw an option on my Epic 4G to speak the incoming caller ID out loud. Am I not looking enough? Was it Cyanogenmod I saw it on? Or am I just delirious? If so, could you please help me find an app good enough at doing this, no battery drain, and possible to listen to through bluetooth? I'd love it (not need it) if it also spoke incoming message sender.
There was an option in 2.1 stock rom to enable vocal caller id, but it has been removed in 2.2. So far I haven't seen it in any roms that I've tried, including the unofficial leak. It really irks me that it was removed. I posted about it a while back and didn't get any response.
Caller I'd reader on the market reads the names and numbers out aloud. Hope it helps

I prefer "SayMyName" found on the market. Can read incoming calls, texts, emails and tweets as well as their contents if you so choose. Has a text replacer too for those hard (or poorly) pronounced words/names so you can specify how they are supposed to sound. Been using it happily for a bit on various phones and various android versions and rom builds.
Tasker, IMO. That app does everything.
I'll put in a vote for drive safe.ly, look it up...
Unfortunately, I tried all your apps, and they are all great (especially SayMyName), but none of them will speak through my bluetooth headset! That's the whole point, actually. I have yet to try Tasker, which I will now.

regarding SayMyName.. did you enable Bluetooth/Headset-support in the Advanced Settings? (very bottom of the options)
Saymyname is an awesome app. I actually use it now. Thanks

[Q] Basic Custom Locksreen App

Hi. Have had a search through and can't find a similar thread, so apologies if I've missed one.
I'm looking for a (free, ideally) locksreen customisation app. I'm not fussed about directly launching apps from the lockscreen, but would like something that has missed call/received SMS/email notifications.
Anyone got any good suggestions?
Thanks.
widgetlocker is the one you are searching for.
there arent many others or better ones...
Thanks. I have noticed that one. Is there a free version though?
no. i havnt found a free version yet...
The only free app i can think of is lockbot free
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.jackdoit.lockbotfree
Not sure if it has notifications for sms, email, missed calls etc.
but its free so worth trying at least

I'm running CM7 and never had a problem like that. Have you checked the forums for your ROM by doing a search? All my problems are always answered when I do that. Plus, it forces me to read a lot of other cool stuff that I didn't know was available
This is a nice way to say use the search and you might find something extra too. Way better than just saying "search noob".
I also have not encountered this problem either but maybe look in you music player's settings about notifications. Not sure which one you are using but they almost all have some type of notification/volume setting.

Finally rooted.. a few questions

Hey all,
I have my KFHD7 rooted and running beautifully thanks to the boards. I had more than a few hiccups due to the fact the board is so disorganized (HD 7, HD 8.9 posts all over the place, rather than in their respective sections). But.. all is good.
I've attached a screenshot below.
I have a few questions:
- When using Smart Keyboard Pro (best keyboard out there!) I notice that the 'softkeys' overlap it. Do you think this is an app problem?
- Does anyone know how I can enable a 'Recent Apps' thing or similar? I tried a few.. and I'm currently using one that I slide left (I forget its name), but it works.. but not as nice as the ICS one
- Perhaps because of the 'recent apps' problem, but when I receive notifications via Gmail, the status bar crashes. Any ideas on a fix?
- For many, many apps that have tablet versions, I find it sticks to the mobile phone version, which is clunky. Any ideas how I can fix this?
- Also, despite having Google Search downloaded (but I had to sideload it since the Play Store says it is not compatible), all searches still redirect to the Amazon version. Fixes?
Many thanks for all your help and tips!

Just a FYI everyone of those questions can be answered and have been solved just use the search forum.. Just bc you think this forum is "disorganized" doesn't mean you cant use the search tool. Here are some links to get you started:Nav bar problem for keyboards: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2038452Recent Apps:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2158395 And as far as you mobile verzions apps try altering the dpi and there is some threads on that as well.. Google search:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155017 I think that about covers it..:good:
I've found the Google Search pretty poor on the forum; for example to have an adequate response I need to do 4 or 5 searches, on each forum, ya know?
But thanks for highlighting the answers for me
