So i just rooted and installed handcent and turned off stock sms notifications but when receiving text i was getting a notification from handcent and what i thought was the stock app. But then i turned on stock sms notifications and now i get notification from handcent, one from stock app and and one that says New Message(s) You have an unread message and it looks like a little picture of envelope or post card. I have no idea where that notification is coming from. its very annoying please help
Never mind thread can be closed found out that even if you don't use beautiful widgets sms that the notification will still show
I ve installed the CHOMPSMS and wonder how can i disable the factory messaging program (i installed ASTRO). I tried to change the LED Blink colour in ChompSMS but it doesn work, i need to set the light from Factory Messaging.
Please help
p.s. Does anyone know if there is an app that i can add the A-Z alpha onto my contact phone list so that i dun have to scroll around.
You can turn off the notifications on the stock app by going into the apps settings and scrolling to the bottom unchecking the box that says "notifications."
I hope this answers your question, and as far as changing the LED color, you need to be rooted in order to do that.
thank you!
I have rooted but i am unable to adjust the LED colour from ChompSMS, only can do it in factory messaging.
Uncheck the notification only not showing the icon right? does it disable the app permenatly?

I use handsent sms but also have sms popup. I have the notification off on the default and handsent. I use the sms popup because it lets me use trackball for different color for different contacts. Extra work but it works for me.

I quit using Handcent a while back because I wasn't using any of the features. I haven't used it since I got my N1 actually. I used to do a lot of work with the Dev on it. With SMS popup I can't get the trackball to work at all. You're using the LED setting right?
This is how I have the N1 set for trackball notification. 1st I have missed reminder install. I have the red selected for missed sms and blue for calls.I use handset for default sms but have the notification off, also the default messaging notifications off. I then have sms popup. Sms popup is enabled,for the quick yes or now replies, under the contacts notifications have different colors selected for contacts.

You're using the "LED" selections right? I'm trying it and none of them are lighting the trackball.

In what application? Please be more explicit.
I have the same setup as jerrycycle (coincidence) and for example using SMS Popup - Notification | Default Notifications | Enable Notifications (disable notification in the standard messaging app) and then go the the Led Configuration section and set your options. Now, use the Test Notification function to test your LED's.
You need a custom ROM but you should not use any LED mod for this.
The led will work for the chompsms and handcent. The custom option has to me the chosen option and the time has to be set. There is a 3 second delay before the custom colors work. I can't say what to set it on without reconfiguring my phone to test.
Is there a way to create a custom tone for when a specific person messages you?
Try downloading Handcent from Market. It's free. Just remember to change the notification settings on the default messaging app or else you'll get two notifications everytime (which gets very annoying). Good Luck!
Does anyone use Glowfly or any other type of popup message notification app? I don't want to use a whole another messaging app because I like the stock app. I just want to know your opinion if you use a popup notification app.
I've been using Chomp sms. But decided to go back to the stock messaging app. Alls fine until I receive an alert - trouble is I can't hear it? I've disabled notification alerts in Chomp, but no audible alert tone is playing in stock app, even tho alert notifications are enabled in stock app.
I'm also not getting the envelope icon on my pull home screen pull down , must be a bug?
Thanks.
SOLVED -just un installed Chomp completely. There was no other way around in. It's as should be now.
