[Q] di11i's 5.6 text mssage question - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey I just installed di11i's 5.6, awesome rom, first one I've flashed. I can't seem to find the option to vibrate on text recieve, its not in the general settings pages or in the messaging app settings page. Any app I can use or osmething to enable this?

text message question
The easiest way is to go to Settings > Sound > Vibrate always
or download a sms program like Handcent or chompSMS

hmmm vibrate always still doesn't make it vibrate when receiving a message.
But Handcent looks like a really great alternative! Thanks

Vibrate on notifications/sms

Hi
is there a way to set the nexus to ring AND vibrate when i receive a sms?
thx
You should check the settings.
Go to your Messaging application.
Hit menu.
Settings.
Notification Settings.
Vibrate <= that is the one you want to check.
thank you, i guess it was pretty straightforward but i didnt think of it, i thought that notifications from the sound/notifications is applied to sms and didnt check messaging options

[Answered] Message tone on Galaxy S (Can't change it)

Hi,
I am trying to change my sms tone .... and everywhere is saying i do this via notification tone under settings and even apps such as ringdroid change the notification tone... but for some reason this does not change my SMS tone ... I remember I did change it once to bubbles because I was sick of my sms and battery full being the same and now I can't remeber how I did it
I am not usind a custom rom, just the stocky 2.2
anyone know how I did it
Thanks,
Xalies
Go to messaging app then go to settings, scroll down to the bottom, there you will see select ringtone.

thanks... I feel my noob showing now
I feel like an idiot...I've been trying everything since I installed Zedge to get the damn default tone to change to silent...could not understand why changing it in settings wouldn't work. TYVM!!

2.3.3 Text Message Vibrate

I recently flashed the stock 2.3.3 to my Captivate and have been loving it. I cannot, however, find the setting to make the phone vibrate when receiving a text message. I tried hitting the menu key in the app, scrolling to the bottom, only to find there is no option for Vibrate. Only Notifcations, and Select Ringtone. I have also tried looking through the Android Settings with no luck. I must be missing something?
Settings> sound> vibrate> always
Also some ROMs like Serendipity have you change vibration settings through the messaging app. So you go to your text messaging home screen, menu, settings, notifications, then change it.

Problem with sms notification

Hi there.
I have one problem with my LG Black, i've got installed NOVA V7 ROM and from market I install Handcent SMS and set is as a default SMS app. I uncheck in oryginal android sms application option "notifications" and now i got only one notification on my statusbar when I get a sms and thats all right, but when someone send me message i get on lockscreen notification that i've got 1 message and when i tap on this notofication and slide down it goes to the oryginal android sms app. This is very annoying becauce after i get sms I got 2 notifications, one from Handcent SMS on my statusbar and the other one from oryginal SMS app on my lockscreen, and if i go to the Handcend and i read the message this one dissapear but the second one (from SMS/MMS app) is still on my lockscreen.
In a nutshell: When i get sms i have to go to the 2 sms app because i get 2 notifications, one from handcent and one from stock sms application.
My question is: how to change this slide down opption to handcent sms or if I can't do this, how to delete this option ?
Thanks a lot for help.
If you're not madly in love with the default lockscreen you can find out there some pretty alternatives and that should solve your 2 notifications problem. I used to have that problem too but I simply changed to widgetlocker which, btw, it's more powerful and customisable and you can have whatever lockscreen you want, without those 2 notifications. If you are rooted you could also delete the sms app but i'm not sure about that. Linking it to handcent or go sms or anything i don't think it's going to work.
For double notification message on status bar, you can disable notification from stock messaging settings.
And for notification message on lock screen, it's build with stock messaging, and there's no clue yet how to disable it.

Hey, I have solved this problem. But don't know which app killed it. I have "autostarts" and "no lock". I think it's autostarts. But mind you, it is an anvanced application.
On option "When SMS Received" you'd see both, Messaging and Handcent. So tap Messaging and disable it. "After Startup" option, disable Messaging as well. You could disable Messaging as well or other unnecessary apps that autostart on other options. Like Gallery, Music etc. HTH

Autostarts app. Not on the phone itself. You have to download the app.
Autostarts by Michael Elsdorfer. Find it on the market.

[Q] how to disable Text Messaging popup

i got a Bionic and for txt messaging i like to use handcent and on my old Droid 1 i just disabled all the Txt messaging notifications for the default messaging application. but when i tried to do that with my Bionic i cant find the option that lets me turn off the popup feature of the default txt messaging app. i first looked in the settings of the defult app but all i see is the toggle to disable the notification in the status. and i disabled that but i still am getting the popups when people txt me.
can some one help me. were do i go to turn off the txt message popups?
Are you talking about in the notification bar?
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using XDA App
when some one sent me a text it would popup on my screen as well as the status bar i just wanted the status bar only as a notification as well as my ring tone.
but never mind i figured it out for some reason it wasn't holding the popup settings in Handcent so when i disabled the popup in handcent it would just revert back so i thought it was just the factory messenger popping. but i fixed it. problem solved.
