Issue with double notification sound...

I get a double notification sound every time i get a text message. The first sound is the one i chose in handcent. The second sound occures 1 second after the first, and its the default notification sound("look at me").
Ive tried unchecking everything in the default messaging app. Ive tried going into settings>sound& display> notification ringtone> silent. Restarting phone after setting these things. And still no fix. I still get the double notification sounds. The 1st i want. The second default sound doesnt go away.
Before I made this thread i did research around the web about this and tried every suggestion. I still have the problem.
Any other suggestions?
also: my phone is not rooted

Wow. Never heard of that... I really don't know what to say.
Root.

Go to messaging app, settings, then just UNCHECK notifications. That should be it. I've had tons of Android phones and use all kinds of 3rd party SMS app, and have no issues.
Make sure you don't have some other SMS app or message notification app also running giving notifications. (missed call, sms popup, chompsms, trackball alert, sms count widget, etc..)

Yeah "nothing" is checked in the default messaging app.
I tried to install chomp to see if it was handcent and it did it with chomp too.
Edit: I found the issue!
Thanks for suggesting about looking for any app that had anything to do with messaging or ringer tones. It was a rarely used app i have called "ringo pro"
I changed the appropriate settings and now everything is fine.
Thank you

[Q] Do you get all Notifications? or just the updated apps?

I'm wondering if you get all notifications on the Gear live or only the apps that had been updated to work with the watch?
I'm specially wondering about 3er party SMSs clients and other like Whatapp and Instagram that I use a lot.
Thanks

All apps. Essentially any app that generates notification on phone.
You can select apps from which you don't want to receive notification on watch thru android wear settings on your phone.

As stated in google io:
Wear plugs into the 4.3+ notification system. Any notification generated will get converted to a "wear" notification/card
Additionally, any apps that use "notification actions" (not sure what the offical name is) such as; "delete" and "archive" in gmail notifications will get converted to "action buttons" in wear that call the exact same code on the phone, thus producing the same results. This is useful to remember for apps that have notification actions on your phone but haven't updated to support wear.
Additional functionality such as "display extended cards" or "stack multiple notifications" (including the thing that hangouts can do where tapping would bring you a history of the chat on the watch itself) or "reply by voice" types is what would require an "update to the code"...THIS is what people are looking for in apps that "update to support wear".
[**] for instance, whatsapp notification would show up, whatsapp does not have any notifications action buttons on my phone so all I would see is "open in phone" (probably) as a button in my wear device. If they update the app we could tap the wear card to see the full conversation (including the full message rather than just what you would normally see in the notification slide on your phone) slide to the right to get a button to "reply by voice".

It uses the new notification access thingy. All notifications get sent to watch. Can exclude apps

[Q] Individual Text notifications

Is there a way to update the contacts app, or install a third party one, that allows for setting individual text notification sounds? I've seen this option on other android devices, but on my Note 3 (running alliancerom v6) it only gives the option for setting individual ringtones. I've used third party messaging apps (like Go sms) that allows for individual settings, but I'm tired of all the advertisements and spam that comes with those. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Google Hangouts has support for individual chat message tone and I believe that works with text message too. Can you try that?

Contacts + it's a great contact/dialer/messaging replacement app, you can set individual notifications but it's got tons and tons of other features...definitely worth checking out if you haven't already

Native Contacts

I believe you can set it up using your native contacts app....Go into your contacts and pick one, click on the little pencil thingy on the top right to edit the contact. If you look towards the bottom, i believe below the email or groups title, You have one that says ringtone and another below that one that says Message alert. There you can add a customized ringtone and message sound to that contact...Hope this helps

Push notifications

Hi all,
I have add the likes of Viber and Whatsapp to the protected app list, but still once the app is closed it stops getting push notifications.
Have played around with the battery manager, but still no luck.
Has anyone got a fix or workaround for this?
Thanks
Paul

have you tried enabling notification acess from settings>notification panel and statusbar>notification manager and giving acess to each app to show notification on different aspects.

Put these apps in the whitelist (protected apps)

Did you disable background data for those apps?

Use Tasker to create custom notification sound in Samsungs Messaging app (S9+)

Hello forum. In the Oreo update for some reason the ability to use custom notification sounds for specific contacts was removed. Samsung blames it on Google and vice versa. Theres a 150+ page thread at Samsungs community site about it. Ive contacted them myself and they blamed Oreo. Anyway this use to be as simple as going to the contact and setting the notification sound you wanted for that persons texts. You can still set ringtones, but not texts anymore using Samsungs messaging app. I know there are 3rd party apps that do this, and you can set them per thread in Googles stock messaging app, but I prefer the Samsung messaging app.
Similarly Google removed being able to set custom notification sounds per label in the Gmail app. But after getting Tasker I got some help to make this work with Tasker and the plugin Notification Listener. So I was thinking there might be a way to use Tasker to have Samsungs messaging app notify me with a custom sound for a specific contact. I tried to figure this out myself and couldnt. So I am hoping someone can help me out with this, of course assuming its possible. Thanks

Take a look at the Tasker wiki SMS Notification Management entry.
"Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment." - Will Rogers

Use in profile the state of unread text and within that you can add in a contact.
In the task you can use if the above profile active then play sound, I use a custom vibrate pattern also.
This is what I use and it works well.
