[Q] Best missed call/SMS reminder application? - Optimus L3, L5, L7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, does anyone know of any good missed call/SMS reminder apps?
I've tried "Missed Call Reminder", "Vibration Notifier" and "Missed Call / SMS Alert," but they all lack something...
The first one doesn't have "quiet hours" support, so it starts to beep even during night hours when I don't want it to.
The second doesn't work for me at all.
The last one has "quiet hours" support, but doesn't do anything when the phone is set to vibrate only. I'd expect the phone to vibrate every 1 minute, but no, nothing. There's an option to enable the reminder in "silent/vibrate mode," but the sound notification goes off when this is enabled. I don't want that, I just want it to vibrate when the phone is in vibrate/silent mode, how hard is that to understand?
So, is there a reminder app that:
1) supports quiet hours
2) actually DOES something in vibrate/silent mode
3) ONLY vibrates when in vibrate/silent mode
4) vibrates + sound in normal mode

possible reg tweak?

Hi all,
Is it possible to make the Vibrate function on this phone stay on at all times (even if you set the sound etc to off).
Basicially no matter if the sound is set to on, vibrate or off I always want the phone to vibrate (or vibrate and ring if the sound is set to on) I know that the ringer/vibrate function is also controlled via the ringer options.
If there is a known reg tweak that will do this I would be very greatful, and I am sorry if this does not make much sence.
regards

Your answer can be found on this same page under thread title "Easy Tweaking of HTC Wizard."
Thanks
Thanks Hotdog for your reply.
Perhaps I am being blind but I can see it anywhere. I can see a lot of information on a 'tweak' program for the Wizard but thats about it.
Thanks

[Q] SMS Popup over lock screen?

Hi Guys
Im looking for an app or a way to display the latest incoming SMS over my lock screen without unlocking it? I have GOSms which is great and is set up perfectly when my screen is locked. But all I want is the screen to turn on (not unlock) and display the sms for say 10 seconds (or longer) so far iv exhausted all options as most popups will displayon top but unlock the phone which is dodgy in case it goes off in my pocket and either send random texts or forget i got one.
Hope im being clear enough and yeah iv done a search

Handcent SMS. By far one of the best SMS apps out there, and free! Search the market or use this QR code:

yeah used em before i went to gosms but its practically the same looking system so as far as i am aware it has the same unlock the screen before the pop up could be seen action...
Basically for want of a better sentence I want what the iphone has u see the message for a few seconds but need to unlock the screen before you do anything about it.
Cheers for the reply though
JR
I'm pretty sure you can get it to work that way if you go into the notification settings, and popup settings. There are a few settings:
Screen on for popup - checked
Screen timeout - whatever timeout you want
Window mode - without quick reply
Show when locked - checked
If I understand correctly what you are asking for, this combination seems to do it for me.
cool dood will give a bash will report later !

Text notification on lockscreen

Is there any way of turning it off completely? I don't want a crappy looking banner.

Look for 'Preview Message' under the Notification Settings in the Messaging Settings menu.

No, that just allows it to display the first few words of the message if it's enabled. Even with that disabled the big banner still appears on the lockscreen stating I've got a new message. I want to stop it appearing at all.

Once in the Message app: SETTINGS -> Notification settings -> Notifications (uncheck)
This is just a guess though... I haven't received a text message yet to verify, haha. But it's worth a shot.
That'll stop you getting ANY notification at all though, no message tone, no unread count, etc. I still want that to work, I just want to stop it coming up on the lockscreen too!
This screenshot shows what I'm wanting to disable. I just want to stop this ugly banner appearing in place of my regular widget on the lockscreen when I get a text.

[Q] Custom SMS notification sounds

Is there an app or setting that will allow me to set custom notification sounds for sms, like I can do with ringtones? Currently running stock rooted.
Person 1 - Notification sound 1
Person 2 - Notification sound 2
All other people - Notification sound 3
Go SMS in the Play Store has the option for individual notifications including sound, vibrate patterns, LED light color, and more.
Sent from CAMACHO, my Verizon G2 (VS980) running PAC ROM 4.3.
Put the file on your sdcard under Media\audio\notifications
Run an app like "rescan media" and it will appear in the list for notifications.
Same for alarms folder and ringtones folder under audio.

I have custom tones already on the phone and they are showing up, I was trying how to set a custom tone to a specific person like I can with a ringtone.
Can't just do that in contacts
In contacts the G2 will allow you to set a custom ringtone, but not a custom notification tone.

Multitasking on an incoming call

Hello,
On the iPhone there is an app for jailbroken devices called Call Bar. Basically it allows you to continue whatever you are doing while there is an incoming call. Is there any app similar to this on Android? I have found 2 apps, Small Call Pro and Call PopOut but they haven't been updated in more then a year. Any advise would be highly appreciated.

What's wrong with stock?

Or press the home button ?
Hmmm I've tried that however I can't dismiss the incoming call notification which renders the top part of the screen useless.
To clarify I don't want to reject the call, I just want to be able to continue whatever I'm doing while the call is ringing out.

This is a feature in stock Android since Lollipop as shown by @foxmeister

Android can do all this since forever, just answer the call and press the Home button , if the top bar shows, press the power button and turn on the screen again.
I think the OP means he doesn't want to answer OR reject the call, just ignore it so it goes to voicemail after the normal delay.
It took me a while to figure out how to do that with heads up notifications. It appears that you can swipe up on them and it will push them to the notification drawer, instead of dealing with them.
I've never tried that with a call, because I either answer, or reject. Why make the poor person on the other end wait to leave you a voicemail? Just wastes everyone's time, IMO.
