Other notification options...?

Hello,
My cousin has upgraded from a feature phone to a droid 3, but she hates the way her notifications appear. What app or apps could she use to give her more options. Any recommendations?

Hello ladies and gentlemen,
I know that some of you have a lot of experience, so please drop a line or two and give me a tip. Please and thank you.

You can't really change the way notifications come in...

SMS Popup by Adam K is one of my favorites
Or a combination on Go Launcher EX and GO Notifications is cool Somewhat iphoneish
Pretty much all i know of at the moment.

Thank you, I'll pass those links along to her. Again, thank you for your time .

Android arguably has the best notification system available. Why she'd want to downgrade to archaic iOS style notifications is beyond me.

Nah, to tell the truth webOS does.

What works for you and me may not work for her and vice versa.
And that's okay.

I don't believe the Gear can do that. It has to go thru your phone via Bluetooth. Down the road, but non SMS or anything that needs WiFi or internet. I can use it for searching in Root Explorer and things on the Gear.

Im going to try pushing tablet talk to my gear after work tonight. I use it to send sms from my WiFi only tablet - it connects to the phone over bluetooth basically makes the call/message functionality of the gear work on a tablet with the exception of you cant use the tablet as a bluetooth handsfree like the gear.

Posting the apk here isn't allowed, but besides that, it's all fair game.

Tablet talk is side loaded, but I am unable to scroll down to select my phone to pair with. Has anyone else had this problem?

I fixed it by downloading older version of tablet talk apk. For some reason the newer version crashes. I am using tablet talk version 1.7 which you can easily locate on Google. It works without any issues. Hope it helps.

write a review on google play,give one star and say that it's not supported by the gear.

Samsung has nothing to do with this, Whatsapp devs themselves need to release it for the Gear.

Does Whatsapp currently give ANY kind of notification to the watch? May be a stupid question, but it's important to me because Whatsapp is pretty much the only messaging app I use..

Same here on using whatsapp. The answer at the moment is No sadly.
However there are some good people working on various things and in that process, getting whatsapp to work might be a possibility.
Also if Whatsapp Devs update the app to work, it should.

Mine is working and was enabled for messages by default.

Works for me.
Everytime message or email arrives, colorful ring goes around the screen.

Have you tried APP SPESIFIC section?

To update, looks like SMS does work but not emails and other apps even they are whitelisted. Thanks for the input anyway!

seems like that would be when you want it to edge light the most.

With the screen off or on?

There is a free Galaxy App called Edge Lighting Plus that gives you a lot more control and options.

I started using Good Lock in my Note 8, installed on my new 9 as well. One of the suggested accompanying apps is the EdgeLighting+. I actually am not sure if it's working yet, as this weekend hasn't been a good time to test. Most of my notifications are Facebook, Instagram, and email related and I don't think those ever invoked edge lighting for me.
I'll be able to test more reliably in terms of SMS and Hangouts this coming week.

Hmm still doesnt work I think I have to use the stock Samsung apps for it to work I think. Yep it's the Samsung apps that work with it

I haven't messed with the edge lighting settings at all and it seems to be working normally.

It doesn't work for calls from what I tested. If you look at the available apps the phone app isn't listed. Everything listed it so far always works for me.
Edit : Also if you have a flip cover case like samaung flip cover it will disable it

Edge lighting is a joke.
