Handcent SMS app when i receive in coming messages and 2nd one from default sms client is there a way i can stop the default sms client to give me the notifications and only get the notifications from the handcent sms app ?
Go into the default messaging app, then settings, then uncheck Notifications(display message in status bar).

[Q] Hangouts SMS with notifications on Gear

I really like the Google Hangouts as an SMS client, I also like the stock SMS notifications on my Gear. My problem is i wish to continue to utilize the Hangouts app for SMS while only receiving notifications from the stock app on my Gear. I know you can just enable Hangouts notifications via Gear Manager but when you receive multiple messages it collates them and loses content, in addition to not having the quick response capability. I've also tried the Disa.im messaging app. While this is cool I am not a huge fan and MMS is spotty on my Note 3. Thanks!
you can't do it. The gear relies on notifications from the phone.
1. if you turn off hangouts notifications for SMS, then you can get SMS client notifications, but you won't get hangouts for SMS on the phone
2. if you turn off SMS client notifications on the phone, then the Gear will never know to display the notification.
3. You could have hangouts AND the SMS client enabled on the phone, and only the SMS Client notifications enabled on the Gear, but then you'll have duplicate notifications on the phone, and you won't receive any non SMS hangouts notifications.

[APP REQUEST] Auto delete SMS/Message by age

I'm looking for an app that deletes sms message after a set period of time. Does anyone know of an app that will do this as an automated task as I'm yet to find one on the market that works?
Ideally i want a minimalist app with the sole purpose to delete any sms older than a week to keep my inbox tidy, cheers.
Could this be done via an xposed module on the default sony messaging app, and would someone be willing to make it?
SMS Organizer by trailblaze
My friend made this app that does exactly this, i.e. delete SMS after a set amount of time specified by the user. It matches SMS by keyword/contact name , which is also given by the user, and deletes them either immediately or after some delay as given by the user.

Tasker and INTENT actions

Hello all,
Suppose I want to dismiss a notification popping up from an app Notifier. Automating the dismiss can be achieved through using the input tap command in Tasker, and also using the same feature in Autoinput.
But I want to dismiss it by sending an INTENT through Tasker. How do I know which intent to send? Please help.
Many thanks.
Nobody answered it, so I answer it myself, I used Notification listener and dismissed the notification from any app I chose
If you want you can just disable the notification of any chosen app from settings/application manager

I am monitoring my garage door to see whether it's open or closed. The garage door sends me emails of it's state. I'm using Tasker K-9 plugin to receive notifications and use Tasker to create my own custom notifications. Everything works fine, except for one problem. Whenever the phone is locked and there is a change in state, the notification doesn't update unless I unlock the phone.
How can I resolve this?
Thanks.
You can try an alternative.
Install notification listener app from playstore.
Event will be notification listener app listening to the email app(K9mail or Gmail etc)
Task will be whenever I get an email from your *door*(? lol), then you get an alert (notify, voice etc etc) but do fill up the "If" command like if %nltext~*door*,
For ex:
I have subscribed to this thread via my Gmail and I want an alert to pop up when I get an email from XDA.
what I do is this.
Event : plugin > notification listener app> select Gmail.
Task :
a1: If > %nltext~*XDA*
a2: alert > notify.
This is independent of the phone state locked or not

I figured out what I was doing wrong. I needed to clear/cancel previous notification before creating the new one.
