Good!
Somewhat funny, as we just got the ability to do this using homebrew too...

?? I've seem to be behind the times..... what home brew :silly:
I have developed a working interop-unlock for Samsung ATIV phones. Among other things, it gives the permissions needed to modify all the sounds (think of Advanced Config from WP7). It's still device-specific, unfortunately, though.

Whats up guys, the other day i was searching this forum and I found an application that allowed you to set different sms notifications for different senders as well as email and a few other things and now I cannot find it for the life of me, anybody have the link to that thread? thanks
I've never heard of this but would be really cool to have on my Touch Pro, what device did you see it on before?

It wasn't an app, it was just an idea that someone came up. But it was never done. It was just an idea of development Although I don't think it's useful, but would love to see how they pull it out.
Different notifications TO YOU you mean?
What is the point?
Except if you mean auto reply to them (SMS or EMail) based on who they are.
CommManagerPro (you'll find it in XDA Devs) is adding this functionality in the next version (among other things).
Try Ringo. Its a WinMo software that enables you to set separate ringtones and SMS tones for each separate contact. The user interface is very very simple, it is a great application to have and use. Either try searching for it Google, or you might be able to find it on this forum using search.

No I meant like how you have custom ringtones for your contacts, I could have sworn I saw a thread with an app that allowed you to set custom SMS tones for your contacts instead of just one default SMS sound, but the other guy said it was just a concept for an application, :-(
Interesting idea.

Hey guys, I'm thinking of upgrading from a Tmobile Dash to a G1 but need to know if there is a program on the Android platform similar to the CallFirewall program on Windows where it will take an incoming call and sends it directly to voicemail if on the blacklist. It's actually a deal breaker for me as I love the flexible whitelist / blacklist options on CallFirewall.
Thanks!
How does that functionality built into the os tickle your fancy?
In every contact entry there's a checkbox that says "send calls to voicemail" it makes it so your phone doesn't ring or show the call, the missed call is in the log but no notification... and best yet to the person on the phone its as if you haven't done a thing... rings all the way to VM
there's a callblocker app on the market for free.

Yes, its by bratag =] requires root access, so root your phone before downloading.
What does that mean? Root your phone?
Also, could someone tell me how many contacts the phone will hold?
I'm leaning toward getting one.

Android is linux based and the super user account is called 'root', there is various ways to root android phones and you can even buy an ADP (Android Developer Phone) which comes by default with super user access enabled.

Android (not just G1) uses SQLite to store information and depending on ram etc it's for all intents and purpose limitless.
Cool, thanks about the contacts.
Still not sure what the root thing means, but with a built in call blocker I guess it doesn't really matter

i cant seem to find the bratag app... anyone has a clue??
is there an app that lets you receive just the calls from a whitelist and block all other?
Check this out

Works amazingly.
I also can't find bratag's call blocker on the market anymore. Does anyone still have a copy of the app?

The Samsung Note 2 has a great S Note application where one can write notes and add pictures on there along with Audio Notes. Is there something similar to this application that is available or can be added to the HTC ONE? Is there one that comes with it or is there a way to get one similar to the one that comes with the Samsung Note 2 on there?
Instead of just having a basic note application where one can just types notes with no pictures or no audio. Anyone here able to help with this?
Does evernote not allow for this?

Evernote is an application that requires you to save everything on their server. No privacy this way and you have to upload and download everything from them every time you need something. Last but not least they charge you for storage space and you do not have the option to only keep info on your device only if I am not mistaken. Would prefer an application just like the one on on the Samsung Note 2 called the S-Note.
Thanks for your input though :angel:
I've not used it yet but have you tried Google Keep?

Permissions and privacy invasions are like that of Evernote. That Toggle sync pretty much gives them control over turning and over riding your sync options meaning if you turn sync off they can turn it on and sync if they want to.

Fairly confident that s-note is the same way, but you don't really see it since its already installed on your phone.

Yeah SNote syncs with your Samsung/SCloud account so everything is saved on Samsung's servers.
EDIT: S Note's permissions :
1
2
3
4
The only permission it isn't granted is 'Sleep with your wife/significant other' then?

Is that an option to sync with Samsung/SCloud or a must like Evernote? I did not know that all of the SNotes were synced to the Samsung Cloud Servers.

I'm a new Note 8 owner/user. I've been searching high and low, and the majority of my search results lead here to XDA, but still left me looking for a solution, so naturally I made an account.
I'm trying to get multiple alert tones to work. I know about making the Notifications folder, or moving downloaded alert/ringtones to the existing Notifications folder so they can be set using the Settings>Notification Sounds option. My problem is that I can only change the "Default Notification Sound", "Message Notifications" and "Calendar Notifications". That I can do without issue.
I'd like to be able to change notifications for specific apps, i.e. GMail, when I get a new e-mail would have a different notification vice a Facebook alert.
If this has already been answered elsewhere and my Google-fu isn't up to snuff, could someone kindly point me in the right direction, or possibly show me a guide to get this accomplished? I'd be greatly appreciative.
I use macrodroid paid to sound specific sounds for any event of interest to me, so I know without looking what is exactly happening in my phone, I find it very useful, it is way more easy to use than tasker

Be advised that, free version only allows 5 macros, paid one has no limitation, do not forget to exclude macrodoid from batt optimization, put it in the unmonitored section
most apps with audible notifications have an option in their own settings screen to set an alternative sound.
with gmail you can even set different sounds for different email accounts.

I've been a android messages user for a while now, but since emui 8 on my p20 pro, I've not been able to set customizable notifications for different contacts. Thought it would work the way as Gmail app, but no luck. I'm using 3rd party app for the moment (TEXTRA), but I don't like it. Anyone have any answers?

Does Android messages do the same thing on other phones?
Yeah it does, I've used it since my P8, and my wife uses it on her P10. Checked again yesterday, can change notifications to whatever she wants. Its like they made it the same as their old sms app.

Wasn't Google, had a chat with the other week. They have no control of what Huawei did. And Huawei just said sorry, I'll ask our Devs team to look into it but they are looking into 9 pie, so they may never fix it.

which is fine, but it still does not answer why you can customize notifications in the google messaging app on any other phone, but not on huawei.

Tried it and it took me to the App Notifications Setting screen - selecting Messages does not show any settings to change the notification tone.
You should see an entry called Other notifications, click on that (the text not the toggle button and you will then be able to set the Sound and other options.

Actually, the entry is called "Default" in my case but the rest of your instructions are perfect.
