I've searched but have found nothing.
Is there an app that will allow you to assign different notifications based on who is sending you a SMS?
Chompsms can do that, press the msg and hold ntil option pops up...then scroll and asign ring

I've been using Handcent sms and I was hoping that it could handle it. Oh well. Looks like I will need to change apps.
ringo pro also works to assign sms tones custom leds and vibe patterns without needing any oths mms.apk even works with the default mms
Pretty sure handcent can do it. Open up a message from the person and click the top right settings icon.
Missed Call (at least the donate version) does this as well, I used to use Ringo, but once Missed Call got the feature I never looked back.

Can the notification bubble be disabled?
Its absurd that in the sounds and notifications, I uncheck all notifications from all events and still get the "Dismiss" button for a notification of a missed call or voicemail or email or mms.
I really dont need to see new email counter increment, plus notification/dismiss bubble at the bottom of the screen and finally the envelope icon at the top. Im not that dense.

You need to uncheck "show message on screen" from the connection established event under sounds and notifications.
no that just dosnt allow the message to pop up on the notification. i dont believe there is anyway to disable the icon that pops up in the top.
but what you can do is disable the message that pops up

The instructions I posted prevent the notification bubble from popping up, which is exactly what the OP was trying to accomplish.
no i think he means the icon that pops up on the top not the message that comes up when ever something happend...
at least thats what i think he means...
Which one
I dont mind the envelope on top, what I do mind is when I have the keypad locked and it take 4-10 button presses to get the normal soft key navigation back.
Example:
Missed call, new email, new mms, new voicemail. Each has a seperate "notification" that has to be viewed and dismissed in 2 keystrokes.
So for example, on a missed call only:
1) Turn display back on
2) Unlock (left softkey)
3) Unlock touch right mid screen (or *)
4) click softkey notification (left softkey)
5) click dismiss softkey (right softkey)
As you can see, it takes 5 buttons to get my left softkey back to normal and get rid of the notification bubble. The handset icon with the ! on it is sufficient to indicate the missed call.
Now, how about a missed call, which of course causes a new voicemail:
1) Turn display back on
2) Unlock (left softkey)
3) Unlock touch right mid screen (or *)
4) click softkey notification (left softkey)
5) click dismiss softkey (right softkey)
6) click softkey new message
7) click softkey dismiss
Now add new voicemail, missed call, new email, new text message and you can see it takes a ton of annoying keypresses to get rid of the bubble notifications and return the softkeys to normal where I expect them to be whenever I need to use my phone.
I have everything unchecked in the sound/notify section so that doesnt help.
If I dont use Today but instead, a Today replacement, does that go away?
Thanks
take a look at this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1843894
goto HKCU\control panel\notifications\
and change whatever you want to not show up to 0 or 1 in the options. What i do is set everything to 0 and i used to have a 1 ring lag due to that stupid bubble but as a disclaimer i use S2U2 to Handel the phone calls and phone alarm to Handel notifications so i am able to turn all this stuff off and still have the notifications i ask for.
No Luck on that thread
No luck on that thread. I still get the missed call changing the softkey to Notification and then a bubble, then dismiss.
I tried setting all the "Options" in each key under notifications to zero. So far, I think they all went away except missed call.
I have also been looking for a solution to disable the left soft-key notification / notification bubble. It seems that anyone who receives a lot of calls, voicemail and e-mail on there phone would find this "feature" annoying. I've tried various phone alarm type applications and not had any luck.
You're idea of replacing the today screen sounds like a good idea.
...but so far I just have to disable all on-screen notifications in notification settings and then press the left-soft key over and over again to dismiss all those stupid notifications.

Absolutely! I also can not understand why it seems impossible to get rid of this "feature". Specialy since HTC Home Plugin (and lot of other today plugins) make this notifications absolutely unnecessary.
I don't know if its just my specific phone but I want it to play the sound and vibrate whenever I get some sort of notification. With the stock messaging it gives me that option and I see the option through Handcent but phone only plays sound. When I go into vibrate mode, only calls vibrates. Nothing else.
Any help? Thanks!
Try reinstalling the app
Sent from my phone so excuse the spelling errors
Try this:
With handcent installed navigate to
Android Settings>Sound and Display>Enable Haptic feedback (make sure it's checked)
below it change vibration intensity to your desire. Once this is done you can then disable haptic feedback if you don't like it but the vibration intensity will be saved for handcent.
i was looking for an app that customized some sms and email notifications.. any out there for email? this seems great for sms

handcent settings>notification settings>vibrate settings>always
vibrate and sound works fine for me in handcent
I forgot to mention that I did have Heptic Feedback off, rumor says it saves battery life.

Handcent lets you customize the vibration pattern also.
Is it possible to change the vibrate pattern for SMS messages without having to use a 3rd party SMS app such as Handcent? I am quite fond of the built in TouchWiz lockscreen that works notifications and have noticed that it doesnt support handcent. It's hard to tell the difference between calls and spam text haha (Also is quite loud when it is a long vibrate rather than 2 short vibrates)

I second this. I've the same issue. I hate how long the phone vibrates, and I'm using the AOSP mms.apk. even though you can select short there, it still vibrates like 6 times :\
Every time i get a txt, Handcent pops up and I get the same text like 5-6 times.. sometimes more.. my friend sent me a "ok" text yesterday and I got it 10 times within 20 mins.
does ANYONE know how to stop this?
Hi ave u installed go sms from the market,
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
hey there!
Normally I always come to a solution, but this one is hard... while it seems easy.
Been searching the web for a while now, but no one seems to have this exact problem.
Problem:
Everytime I receive a Text/SMS message, i get notified by a white envelope in the notification bar. it says: 'New Message(s)' with beneath it 'You have an unread message'. So then I click on the icon/text and my message app (handscent SMS) launches. I can reply etc. but when i return to my home screen (doesn't matter if i tick the 'back' button of the 'home' button) the white envelope is still there. So i have to open the notification bar and press 'clear'. ****@NOY!NG!!
Thing is that I don't know which app notifies me, so i can't turn it off! I already ticked-off all the notification boxes (and sounds) is the system message app as well as in handscent sms. But that damn white envelope is still there (with notification sound)!
I figured out one thing; I can change the notification sound of the d*mn white envelope just bij changing the 'General' notification sounds at the settings menu.
So then I thought maybe is the notification from android itself. Does anyone ever had the same problem? suggestions to fix it? thanks
you would drive me crazy!
peace

I just get 4-6 txts in less than a minute. It's so annoying. I wish i could stop it.
Ok, the reason i ask is i get the same thing i get about 5 or 8 texts always the same text i think it's something two do with the default sms program conflicting with third party app

Download and use GO SMS or Handcent from the android market. It may do it - they have a lot of extra settings like that. Disable the built in sms app's notifications.
This should be in the general forum, it's not development.
chomp sms comes with a pre-selected sent tone different from incoming
