I'm looking for a stand alone app that can provide the feature the new D3 has in Blur. The one where if you ignore a phone call, a quick txt msg popup gives you options to reply with a txt to the ignored call. My boss has a D2G or Droid Pro and would really like this feature. Anyone know of a stand alone app that does this? Or a way to get it on his Droid?

Hi.....I need a good Voicemail Notifier
I don't know if this exisits, but I need a screen, or app, or wallpaper, or something that tells me when I have a voicemail. I don't like the basic notification that comes with the phone.
If there were something that had 4 big icons on the bottom or top of the screen, and next to each icon there would be a number, letter me know how many Texts I didn't read, or Calls that came in, or most importantly, how many voice mails I have. I miss so many calls because my phone will be out of range, and I wont even get a notification that a call came in, but 3 days later, when I'm checking voicemail, I see I got a call.
I'm don't mind pay for a good app/widget, I just need some help and suggestions. Anything with a BIG ICON indicator to let me know I have voice mails waiting.
I am using Android 2.3.7 - Miui 1.12.9
Thanks in advance!

Thank you....I will check it out now.....
Is there any way to reply to SMS messages using preset replies? Similar to the way apps like "Glance" for the Pebble watch does.
S VOICE is nice but when I'm in meetings or other public places I need a way to send quick short text answers.
This would be great. Maybe one day we will.

I just got my g watch r. I really like it but it does not show any texts when I get them, just that I have a message waiting. Emails show up and I can read them, but not texts. Am I doing something wrong or does this watch simply not display texts???
the way text messages are displayed totally depends on the app you are using
I switched to evolvesms when getting my watch as it displays the whole text even for long messages, shows high quality contact pics and lets you define you own canned responses
If using the stock Samsung sms app, you need to make sure the option to display texts on the lockscreen is turned on.

thanks guys, I switched to google hangouts as my default text messaging app and it worked just fine. I was worried there for a moment!
This has happened to me a couple of times and I really wish I knew how I did it. I am using the Samsung messaging app. Often I will reply to messages from the notification bar. Every now and then when I go to swipe down on the message notification so I can reply the messaging app will pop up on the screen in a small box. It is not the same as 1 handed mode. I would prefer answering texts this way but I don't know how I do it. Had this happened to anybody else? If so, do you know how to get it to work Everytime?
The subject says it all -- I run Google Messages for SMS because I use messages.android.com pretty regularly. However, it doesn't play audio notifications in the always-on screen -- it vibrates and shows the icon. I've been through every setting I can find. It plays notifications if the screen is fully on.
I did use the LG app to move from a G6 to the V40, but I did a "clear data" on the Messages program afterwards since it had my contact/message history all mixed up. (Thought it was interesting that it was able to restore some of the messages after clearing -- I suppose T-Mobile has a certain amount of history stored.)
I've thought about asking in the Google product forums but support quality over there is dismal, at best.
I've had the same/similar experience and I'll clarify.
When the screen open and I'm already texting "in that thread" there is no sound, but it does vibrate.
However, it will audio a notification and vibrate if a text comes in on another thread.
BTW: I'm using Message+ through Verizon ... so we seem to be experiencing similar situations using different texting apps.
It behaves the same way when e-mailing. If I've got an e-mail thread open and another email comes into that thread, then it'll only vibrate, however, it'll make an audible sound and vibrate if it's a new e-mail or part of another e-mail thread.
Don't know why and can't find a solution. I don't care when it's a text-message as I see the screen move when the new text come in the thread I'm reading/typing in, yet it is an issue in e-mails as e-mails tend to be longer form and I forget to check for new replies in the thread I'm working in and have missed an e-mail or two.
A second part of this is that there's no visual notification in the Notification Bar if a text or e-mail comes in while I was in that thread ... again, not an issue with texts as I see the text-screen move with each newly received text, but it is a big deal with e-mails.
Being honest ... this isn't turning into the phone I hoped it would be. There's a lot of wonky things that are more disruptive than helpful. I've been offered $550 dollars and a great set of ear-bud to trade this phone in for the Galaxy S10 ... although it's as locked down as any new phone could/would be, I can get that deal directly from Samsung and get an "Unlocked" version so I wouldn't be handcuffed to Verizon anymore.
I'm SERIOUSLY considering it.

I agree with you on all that. I was super pumped about this phone and 3 months down the road it has been nothing but a HUGE disappointment. I've been asking $550 as well to get rid of it and go back to Samsung but no luck. Never going to LG again.
