go into chomp's settings and turn off notifications.
then go into default android sms and turn off notifications.
go back into chomp and turn on notifications.
this should make it so your g1 only notifies via chomp. however, if you still get multiple alerts for a new sms, one of the envelopes will have a greenish border...this is the notification for chompsms. it looks almost exactly like the default icon, but it has the green color around the envelope thingy.
WOOO
Great! Simple! Easy! Awesome App Finally A Way To Text Without Sliding The Qwerty Out...great Work

I left dgalert installed and turned of notification in chompsms, made sure when asked which to use as a default, set chomp as default. Now i get the benefits of chompsms with one notification, just dont get the green envelope.
I kinda wish it wasn't a direct bite of the iPhone Texting module and it was made custom to the G1...its still cool though.
I kinda wish it supported MMS. Except for the better rates on international texting via Chomp, it's fairly useless to me.
Okay, so I installed Chomp SMS because it actually vibrates when I get a message =P and so I want to get rid of the default sms as it is annoying to see 2 notifications once I get a text. Is there anyway to do this? Thanks in advance.

for some reason, turning the notifications off dodn't work for me in cyanogen and I'd still get two anyway. ok in super d but it used to really get on my wick.
it's been couple of days, there must be an app allowing us to do whatever we want with the trackball, already?
Blink does it
No it doesn't. It stays white no matter what I pick.
EDIT: Hmmm people say it does in it's comments section. Must be doing something wrong.

yeah I just tried it and it works great for me, although I wish it had notifications for gmail. It's better than nothing.
It seems it doesn't work for incoming calls, but texts changed fine.
it works only when screen is off. For incoming call, the screen is on and thus it does not show colors.
Ahhhhhhhhh got ya.
yeah the same with me, works partially => delete
But I am quite excited! Blink is quite an old, inactive app and it works! It can be considered as an proof of concept and I can only imagine what active developer can do with this feature.
The developer of Missed Call is already working on it too.

Why not support an active xda developer and use Trackball Alert?
Or are you referring to Froyo? You're not specific enough.

Bingo
Gmail Notifier has just been updated and is working for Froyo for new Gmail. There are various other options for SMS, I am using SMS Popup and I believe Blink will handle missed calls among other things......

Trackball Alert looks great, but you have to be rooted and running a modded ROM

No matter what settings I use (Blink, Constantly On, all colors), the test notification never shows any colors.
I received a new email, and I actually got BOTH notifications (default and Gmail Notifier) and the trackball glowed white just as if I didn't have the app installed. I'm rooted on 2.2.
Are the LED colors working for you?

+1 on the GMail Notifier.
Install, turn off GMail's Notification in the App.
Launch GMail Notifier and configure, click test notification and turn off the screen and trackball will light up with the color selected.
As for SMS, Handcent also has been updated for Trackball Colors.

I just turned off default Gmail notifications, opened Gmail Notifier and clicked Test. Still no LED notifications.
Are they working for you guys?

1. If you have 1.3 installed, delete it... It's labeled the OLD VERSION now. Go get the latest version.
2. When you click Test Notification, to see the trackball light up, you have to turn off the screen (hit the power button) BEFORE clearing your notifications.
Works every time for me.

click test and then, without clearing the message, turn the screen off. You should get your color.

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Never would have thought to turn the screen off LOL!
I've done some research and found out that HTC sense offers this. I want to have a pop-up of my text with a quick reply option on my lockscreen. Is there an apparently that can do it for the captivate? I've tries SMS pop-up and go SMS. Neither works and I hate to continuously install apps. Any help is appreciated, thanks!
Handscent does this very well but it tends to work best as a replacement for the default messaging app.

Ok, so.. I've tried all of those, they all suck. I just found this new one called GO MMS or GO SMS or something. It's awesome, customization options, awesome popup ui, quick, try it out.
my email notifications work perfectly, but my text notifications are so erratic that I'm considering returning the thing (& I love it).
Sometimes I get the notification right away, sometimes it comes in 5 minutes after the phone gets it and other times I don't get it at all.
Is there any fix for this??
I got my first text on my watch today since I had the watch last week. I really want to keep it, but I want to see what the possible Google watch will be later. Also for your question try restoring your gear and repairing with phone. I'm sadly sending mine back.

Reminder if you get a text or email while phone on, you will not get notification through the Gear.

I have had zero issues with text notifications. Make sure you uninstall any other txt messaging apps. When I had gosms installed I didn't get any notifications. Once I uninstalled it, I get perfect notifications.
If you download the nodded SMS a pk you can have texts come in without turning your screen on. This makes texts appear on the watch instantly cause the screen is off.

Download what??
Sorry about that. In the themes and apps section of your note 3s XDA you can download a modded MMS apk so your screen does not turn on when you get a text message
Issue probably is related to the screen turning on when a text arrives, which could be happening from another SMS app you have downloaded.

Can you elaborate.

I find that notifications in generally slow; when they appear (usually within 5mins of appearing on phone). My Pebble is instant

I installed this app and set it to not light the screen on receiving a text, now my text notifications are almost instant.
That is great news. Glad I could help
