[APP] [>=4.0] Recurrent Notifications for any App

This app allows to configure recurrent notifications for each app that is using the standard Android notifications subsystem.
For each app, you can configure the ringtone, vibration, led color, number of repeats and interval of each notification.
Notifications are automatically cancelled if the monitorized app removes the notification.
Also, for each monitorized app you can configure if you like to be notified when a ongoing or clearable notification was created or if the created notification contains a specific text.
This app requires a special permission that needs to be activated after the install (go app settings in order to activate it).
Please, contact if you have troubles or questions.
Market Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ryosoftware.notificationsmanager
Compatibility:
Android 4.3 and higher for the standard notifications controller
Android 4.0 to 4.2 for the legacy notifications controller (based on accessibility permissions)

Thank you, been looking for something like this that actually works for a long time, just downloaded it, and all is working flawlessly at the moment, using the custom notification on my Yahoo email app, I can use what sound I desire now.
Thanks very much, will be upgrading to the paid version very soon.
Just a quick question though, is there anyway to disable the app notification icon in the status bar.
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your comments. Appreciate it!
You can disable the statusbar icon clicking settings and checking the "Statusbar icon" preference
Thanks again

Your welcome, I have tried what you suggested to turn off the notification icon, but for some reason it is still visible, not a problem though, it soon disappears after I have read my notification.
Thanks again

Thanks, updated app about an hour ago, still works great, but having selected no icon in the settings, when i get an email, i get no notification sound now, it still works so well i have updated to the paid version of the app.
Again not to worry, it works brilliantly if i have to put up with that icon i will as the icon only pops up when i receive an email, then disappears after i have read it.
Thanks again.

this is what we need for LG G2
so we can control the LED blink
I've got a few questions
1. does this app can control LG G2 back LED
2. does this app usage impact battery life?
awesome app, must have

App is nice. Has a lot of potential.
Before bying the pro version:
I have set GMail as the app to work with recurrent notification.
When I set the "Recurrent notification" to silent sound I still hear the sound of the "original notification" as normal. Any workaround ?

Never gave it a chance due to app permissions
I'm worried about the permissions this app wants to be allowed. All text apart from passwords? Still enables it to collect credit card details etc.
Nah ah.

Sorry but I won't be buying this until i can test with more then 1 app (2 would be enough to test good). Also would be nice to be able to change the blinking speed of the led its too fast for my taste.

Sorry, this app uses the standard led API, that refers to the standard phone led. I think standard phone led is the front led. Sorry
This app has no effects in battery life. Service is sleeping all the time except when a notification is started.

You need to set silent also for notification in gmail.
This app develops notification and recurrent notification for any app, but you need to silent the stock notification in order to don't have double notifications.

Explain for permissions
RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED: In order to receive boot completed at startup and initiate the service
VIBRATE: To allow vibrate
INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE: Required by Google Ads
BILLING: To manage PRO version
READ_PHONE_STATE: Get events when phone call started and ended and silent notifications when in phone call
BIND_NOTIFICATION_LISTENER_SERVICE: (Jelly Bean and Kitkat) To receive notifications and interactuate
BIND_ACCESSIBILITY_SERVICE: (Ice Cream Sandwich) To receive notifications and interactuate
You refer to a standard Android message that is showed when you enable accessibility permissions to any, but this app is not collecting none, and the Inet access is only used
by the Ads library (by Google). We are not collecting or sharing with none.

Sure. We can add vibration patterns in next release.
Sorry, more than one app is a PRO feature.

I wanted to disable vibration and sound for Viber and also set the LED to purple on my Oppo Find 5, but for some reason it did not do anything.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Have you entered "Notifications Manager" app settings and activated accessibility access or notifications access?
Is needed to activate the app.
Also, you need to disable notifications in Viber and enable notifications for Viber in the Notifications Manager app.
(I assume Viber is generating a statusbar notification when a call)
Thanks

Good looks! Gonna be keeping up with the progress of this app.

I've tried to use it on galaxy s4 with 4.4.2 and it does work for notification but LED does not work. I've tried with different colors but only use default one.
Any advice?

I cant seem to get this to work with a Nexus 5

It's too bad you can only test it with one app. What if multiple apps cause a conflict somewhere, how would we be able to identify that without purchasing the app? The trial version should be the full product with a time limit of like a week or something. Don't be stingy. =/

[APP] Light Manager Compatibility

I am the developer of Light Manager. It is an app to configure notification LED color and its flashing frequency for different notification types.
I noticed that there are quite a lot of Nexus 5 users are using Light Manager app. Almost comparable to Samsung devices which Light Manager is designed based on. So I would like to make it fully compatible with Nexus 5. One major bug that users reported is the WhatsApp notification LED does not turn off even after notification has been read or cleared. I think it happens to other notification as well.
I don't have a Nexus 5 to test. Could someone willing to help in doing some beta testing? You may PM me or send me an email. I will send you the install apk for beta testing.
Thanks in advanced.

Actually I only start to have problem after update to 5.8, I am using ART
p.s. I got the same problem on hangout, not whatsapp

I have no issues with light manager but I don't use whatsapp or art.

You mean the LED notification for hangouts remains blinking even after you have read the message? If you are using normal mode, did you enable "Allow Recreate Notification" in Light Manager > Hangouts option?

A Nexus 5 user reported that he found a way to simulate the whatsapp LED remains blinking bug at the link below:

Could someone here verify if it happens to you too? Just want to make sure if this bug happens to all Nexus 5 users instead of certain users only. By the way, he is using alternating mode.
Thanks in advanced.

I use to use this app a lot but the same issue with the whatsapp app was happening with Google hangouts for some reason.

I really love this app and always use it.
Is it possible to make notifications flash even if the screen is on? (i.e when using another app)
Thanks in advance

This has to be done at the firmware side instead of application.
Light Manager can support it if manufacturer allows it.

Will custom notifications sounds be implemented in future releases or the donate version?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk

Sometimes whatsapp notifications keeps blinking even after clearing the notification. It's needed to restart the light manager app.
It would be nice to have a led notification when receiving a call like light flow does.
There is no charging indication too. But I think it's a problem of nexus and not the app.
I keep using this app anyway, I use since a had a galaxy s4.

There's no continuous led when charging.
The s4 behaviour is: when charging, red led continuously, when fully charged green led continuously.
In my recent experience with nexus 5, I can see that, with the stock kernel, it's impossible to have continuous led, only intermittent.
With custom kernels, like Franco or faux, we can see in changelog that there is continuous led implementation.

You can try go to Light Manager > Advanced Settings > Static LED and select option 2. That will give you somehow continuous red LED (In fact it is just 8s on 2s off as reported by other Nexus 5 user).

Disabling "Peek" notifications

having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to turn off peek on apps. I have gone through the settings and found nothing other than disabling notifications completely. I read some stuff on other sites talking about enabling something called UI tuner in Android N, but the method they say to use does not seem to work on the V20. Can anyone point me in the right direction to these settings?

I don't know how you get them in the first place. I don't get them
Sent from my LG-H918 using XDA-Developers mobile app

I'm not sure what you mean by peek notifications but you can swipe left when a notification shows up and hit the setting icon to disable notifications

if you go settings/apps go to the app you want to turn off s turn show silently on
it doesn't work like on marshmallow or at least on a samsung device.
it basically disables peek vibrate and tone..but you still get the notification on your 2nd screen or notificacion bar..pretty stupid if u ask me

Anyone figure this out yet? On the note 7 you were able to disable peek but still have your phone ring or vibrate... This phone you either have peek or disable everything grrrr..... Help anyone it's suppose to be an Android 7 feature but it's not present on this phone LG v20

System UI Tuner in Nougat

Is it possible in any way to enable the System UI Tuner in Nougat build, or has Samsung removed this feature? I'm particularly looking for notification power controls as there seems to be no way to disable heads up without also making them silent.

Waiting to know the solution as well
Im annoyed by the WhatsApp heads up notification

Super annoying for sure! Hating 7.0 on AT&T because of this. Still no fix!

There's a new official API in Nougat for this
Check this https://www.xda-developers.com/get-custom-quick-settings-tiles/

Called? I don't see anything that disables peek and doesn't require root.

Sorry, don't understand what you mean by "called"

Click to collapse
The "Nougat way" of editing quick settings buttons (actually replacing system UI tuner, which has been phased out) tiles doesn't' require root at all.
To use it under S7 nougat, fully expand quick settings area then, open the three dot menu and press "edit".
There are some 3rd party apps which allows to add custom tiles ("Custom Quick Settings" being one of them), some others apps already support this feature for their own usage.
I confess I don't know what "notification power control" is: I was only replying to the thread subject ("System UI Tuner in Nougat").
But maybe if you give a more detailed explanation of what you're trying to to ("disable peek"), I could help on it too.

"Called" means what is this app called that enables Ui Timer settings, therefore the ability to disable message peek.
Message peak is when you are trying to do something on your phone, but you cannot see your screen because every message that arrives is instantly in your face with the full length of the message for everyone to see. I want notifications to ding and vibrate, but only show an icon on the status bar. Not show my messages to the whole world, nor me when i don't want to see them. The only option in notifications with the Samsung version of 7.0 is everything off, or messages in your face with vibrate and ding. Horrible decision by Samsung.
System UI Tuner has the ability to set notification levels including disabling message previews however Samsung pulled it out in 7.0. The solution is this command and you don't have to be rooted:
adb shell settings put global heads_up_notifications_enabled 0

Find more info here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/manually-doing-ui-tuner-t3493986
Works perfectly!

I, I get it: I didn't have all the extra options in system UI tuner in my previous device running Marshmallow (only the "tiles" stuff", this wasn't a Samsung device) thus my mistake on the exact scope of your question.

Dear madfusker,
Did you find a solution to the problem? I just updated my S7 Edge to Nougat 7,0 and now I experience the exact same problem as you. Very annoying.

I don't know how to enable the System UI Tuner, but you can disable "peeking". In Application Info inside Settings > Apps, just below Permissions you will find what you are looking for in 'Apps that can appear on top' under 'Advanced'. It's there for most apps.

You might want to consider a third party app. I know it's not the elegant way but there is an app that offers you a full System UI Tuner.
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.zacharee1.systemuituner
Read carefully etc - you still use a Samsung phone But I use this app on my Galaxy A5 running Stock Nougat TouchWiz and most stuff works.
Hope I could help achieving some good results.
