Galaxy S6 :: How To Set Up Custom Text Notifications For A Group

Jul 16, 2015

We use a paging system (text message) when we get called into work and it comes from a different number each time ex: 7777129401 the next page will be 77771291048. With my Galaxy S4 I was able to set a separate text notification for all of my groups of contacts while my default text messaging notification would be a loud siren (to wake me up in the middle of the night). This means anytime I got a "page" for work or if someone texted me and I didn't have their number in my phone the siren would go off. The only way I can figure out how to do this in the S6 is to individually go to each contact and set a custom notification and set my default to the siren. I have over 800 contacts, so this would take forever! I also used to use an app called Alirmer before I got the S4, because I did not have the capability with the Droid Bionic, but for some reason this app does not operate correctly on the S6.

Galaxy S6 :: Group Text Shows Only Originators Number And Not Other Group Numbers?

Nov 24, 2015

GALAXY S6 MMS GROUP MESSAGE PROBLEM

When I receive a multimedia group text, the texts only show the originators number and not the other Group numbers.

This phone is a SAMSUNG GALAXY 6, using Android 5.0.2

Other suggested truning on Group Conversation or Group Messaging in the settings , but that option does not appear.

The instructions I received are below , but like I said, it did not show up on the settings.Is there a difference in the Android versions that would cause the menu to be different or the setting to located somewhere else?

1.) Go to main screen
2.) Go to messages
3.) tap MORE AT TOP RIGHT OF SCREEN
4.) SELECT Settings
5.) SELECT MORE SETTINGS
6.) SELECT MULTIMEDIA MESSAGES
7.) TURN GROUP CONVERSATION ON

Galaxy S6 Edge :: How To Add Custom Notifications For Different Apps

Jul 21, 2015

I just ported to android. But I'm finding it difficult to add custom notifications sounds to different apps e.g. tweet-tweet for twitter, ring for email, cheer for sports app, shutter sound for Instagram etc. Also not every app shows the banner, some silently comes in system tray, some make noise. I want to control how each app notifies. How do I do that ? I'm NOT asking how to change "DEFAULT notification sound".

Samsung Galaxy S II :: Is There A Way Of Turning Off Stock Notifications (without Custom ROM)

Jan 29, 2013

just picked up an S2 from sprint as a replacement for HTC Evo.Great phone all around, however i`m having one issue. HTC Sense UI has an option to preview messages(2lines) and missed calls right(who and time) on lock screen. This is really handy option with small kids around you dont have to unlock your phone.Since S2 is missing that I've downloaded Notify App which works great.However - I cannot turn off stock notifications - they still show up - so at this time I have to clear notifications twice - once in App and once in Notifications Bar. Is there a way of turning off stock notifications (without custom ROM)? On all other phones i had - there was an option to go to Settings Privacy and uncheck the notifications. This is missing on S2 - all i can see under privacy is Reset to Factory.I really like the phone and how smooth it is. At this point i really dont want to do a custom ROM (`ill root it if need it)

Galaxy S6 :: How To Ignore Group Text Message

Oct 19, 2015

I've seen GroupXIT app mentioned on various threads but their domain seems to not be active anymore: " group xit com" and I can't find the app in google play store.

Other than specifically asking folks to leave me out of a group message, is there any other way to withdraw from a monster group text thread?

Some annoying family starting MONSTER NFL threads every damned Sunday and I know zero people in the thread and would like to take control of my inbox again.

Galaxy S5 :: Not Receiving Group Text Messages

Mar 18, 2015

Since the Lollipop update (I know, I know...) my group text messages haven't been downloading. Sometimes I'll see the MMS trying to download but it just times out and I never see it.

But then tonight I found out that I wasn't receiving any text messages from my roommates. The individually sent texts would come through but not the group ones.

Verizon ended up having me do a hard reset and it still didn't work.

The kicker though, my roommates turned off the iMessage/turn to regular SMS on their iPhones and app future text messages started coming through.

But I wasn't getting text messages from others with Androids too. It seems to be only on group messages though.

Galaxy S6 :: Text Message Notifications

May 26, 2015

Using the stock Messaging app on the S6 allows you to set notification SOUND of your choice - globally ... but no longer has the ability to set a custom vibration pattern. Also, you USED to be able to set unique notification sounds per individual or contact group , but that's now missing too.

My question is, using a third-party messaging app, are these things possible? If so, which texting app (Chomp, etc.) is the way to go so that you can set up unique sounds/vibrations for individuals or groups?

HTC One M7 :: Custom Contact SMS Notifications

Oct 3, 2013

I just got my new HTC One today...and I must say I'm in love and having tons of fun figuring this beauty out. I do have one issue I just can't seem to figure out, and I've researched relentlessly.

How do I give a contact a custom SMS Notification tone? I've figured out that I can give each contact their own ringtone, but nowhere am I seeing an option for text message notifications. The only SMS notification I can change is the default one.

Galaxy S6 :: Individual Text Notifications Not Working - Only Getting Default Ones

May 21, 2015

I always give my closest friends individual ringtones to separate them from all the other texts that I get. So I went to their contact info, added notification field and then changed their notification tone. But for some reason when they text me, they still come up as the default notification as like every other text does. Why can't I customize the text notifications by adding a different text notification to each of my contacts that I want a different notification tone for?

Google Nexus 6 :: Custom Notifications Not Playing On 6.0?

Nov 29, 2015

my new Nexus 6, but I'm noticing an issue with my custom notification ringtones or sounds. I have a custom Ringtone for my Calls, that plays fine, but the Notifications for my Voicemail and Texts is not playing or Plays once the first time, then defaults back to the barely audible notification sound on the N6.

I wiped cache partition and did a factory reset before setting up the phone after the final OTA of 6.0 the day I received the phone. I'm going to try to wipe Cache Partition once again, because I saw in another Notification thread to try it.

Galaxy S5 :: Text Notifications Not Appearing On Lock Screen After Lollipop Upgrade

Mar 13, 2015

I no longer see a "card" for my text notifications on my lock screen after the lollipop upgrade on my Galaxy S5.

I get the status "notification bar" (see attached screenshot), but I want the "card" (like the "New voice mail" card in the screenshot) to appear on my lock screen - I don't want to have to tap the "notification bar" for the rest of my notifications. Hopefully I'm just missing a setting, and this is not the expected behavior....

Here's what I've tried (and what my settings are):

1) Lock Screen/Screen Lock is set to swipe.
2) Sounds and Notification/While Locked is set to "Show All Content".
3) Applications/Messages/Notifications/Preview Message is checked.
4) Applications/ApplicationManager/Messages -> Show notifications is checked.
5) I have cleared the cache for Messages Application.
6) I have done a cache partition wipe.
