Receiving sms whilst veiwing conversation - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone else have this 'problem'?
Whilst viewing an sms conversation, if i receive an sms the notification tone just keeps sounding and there is no way to stop it unless you force close the messaging (or swipe it away in the running programs list)
I use the 'hangout' tone as ususaly it keeps sounding until you pull down notification bar or go into messaging app.
Cheers

That's because hangout is a ringtone and not a notification.

Stop the sms sent notification sound?

Hi,
When sms is sent, there's a notification of it. Is there any way to turn off the sound notification, while still leaving the popup one? The 'trrring' sound on every sms sent notification is very irritating.
Thanks in advance..

messages tone

hey guys,
my girlfriend has a slide and she changed her messaging ringtone. but now, whenever she receives a text message it makes the sound she changed it to, then a second notification sound goes off after it.
It might be asking the obvious, but has your gf installed any other app (handcent, chompsms, smspopup, etc.) that might give a secondary notification?

Serious problem with the messaging client

This has happened to me twice already in 1 month.
1. SMS sent by my wife showed up in thread of another person in the messaging client. However, when I click the SMS bubble to go into the SMS, it shows on the top bar that it's sent by my wife.
2. I received an SMS from Mr X, so went into the conversation thread of Mr X to reply him. The SMS however, was sent to Mr Y! When I checked, the SMS sent was reflected in the thread of Mr X, but when I click on the SMS bubble to go in, it shows that it's sent to Mr Y. What is worse is when I exit the thread, it shows that it is Mr X's conversation thread, but when I go in, it becomes Mr Y's, with all conversations between X and Y in that thread! BTW, X and Y have 2 very different mobile nos.
Now I am very scared to send SMS, not knowing if it will get sent to somebody else! Anyone encountered this? Any remedy?
i had something weird like this and put it down to me being silly clicking the wrong thing.
I also notice that when i send a sms to "hannah" sometimes the name "helen" is shown at the notification bar which of course ****s me up considering some of the conversations i have!
can't quite put my finger on whats going on to give a full explanation but i noticed something odd too...
Sounds scary.
Do you guys get any feedback from the phone that the message was sent successfully? I don't, and find that troubling.
in the conversation window as soon as i click send the sms content turns into a "sending...." then once sent displays the sms content again. on a unsuccessful sms the phone notifies you and the sms colour turns grey.
maybe try dropping your signal somehow, flight mode or something and try sending a sms and see if it notifies you on a unsuccessful sms.

Would be nice if there is an audio feedback, but your suggestion is good.

you could play around with the delivery reports in the SMS options menu, i believe they are carrier related though?
my phone does vibrate when i recieve a failed sent sms message though, maybe this could be customised with a notification ringtone. i currently have it on silent since i get like 30 twitters an hour.
On my phone, if a message is sent successfully, the date and timestamp will appear on the lower right of the sms bubble. If it's not successful, the bubble is grey and both the sms notification ringtone will play and notification appear in the notification bar

That's what I thought too when I had that option on, but it does not notify me.
Upgrade to JG3, it was a problem in JG1.
Strange, I don't hear the ringtone or the notification.

it's just a software glitch, i've had this problem with some 3rd party SMS software in my windows phone, so reverted to the stock SMS software, however in SGS it seems ok so far.
there is a 3rd party SMS apps for SGS "ChompSMS" check it out, it might solve the problem the few of you are experiencing
No problems here, 250~ SMS already sent this month.
Argh! It happened again this morning. Using handcent now. a pity as I find the stock messaging app to be quite good

Serious problems with incoming text notifications

My legend is running froyo and I have an issue with the sound notifications when I receive texts.
I do not want sounds when I receive a text. So I went to settings in the messaging app and disabled sounds. But I still continue to get sounds. I've had to mute notifications for now. I am not able to turn off vibration either.
It's like its linked to the main notification settings.
Help please ?
Sent from my HTC Legend using XDA App
Okay i managed to fix that issue.
notifications working as i choose them to now.
But one thing still bothers.
i have a prepaid connection. my service provider sends me my remaining credit notifications after every text i send.
and i receive those messages with a sound, which is dependant upon the ringtone volume i think.
any way to turn THAT sound off?

SMS Notification sound

Anybody else not getting any sounds when receiving text messages? My phone vibrates and i see it in the second screen...but no sound. Just in the default text app. It works if i use say google messenger. This is annoying.

DO THIS
1. Home Screen
2. Settings
3. Sound & notification
4. Volume
5. turn up the volume next to "notification sound" [it's a sliding bar]
This fixed it for me.
This worked for me!

Go to Settings/Sound & Notification/Select [Apps] under Notifications/Go down to messaging and unblock. Any other apps that you do not want to receive notifications for...you simply just block them. Hope this helps.
