Android : How To Make Evo Stop Waking Up Dead With Every Text Message
Jun 9, 2010
I picked up the Sprint HTC Evo. This is my first android phone and it's a big upgrade from the windows based HTC Touch Pro that I used to put up with. However, every single notification makes a massive, loud, Beep And I can't figure out how to turn the volume down on it, except to put the phone in vibrate mode. Windows had two volumes: one for system, and one for the ringer. That made a lot of sense.
I think my co-workers are going to get really angry with me if I don't figure this out soon. At first, it was just text messages, but now it's facebook and everything else. Can someone please tell me how to shut up this dumb robot?
I'm not sure what info I need to give you about this, but it's the launch version of the Evo, I did not change anything related to this problem - still using the default applications and such.

My sprint HTC hero for some reason will all the sudden stop allowing me to get text messages and mine that I send don't seem to reach the phone I am sending it to. It will stop working out of the blue and start back up. The only reason I know that it stops is because the person I am texting shows me that they never received a message from me and I never got one from them. My phone does not tell me I cant receive or send it just stops and I never know. When it starts working again it does not ever send the messages I didn't receive.

I rooted last weekend. After every missed call I keep getting a text message that says: If I call the second number (408-970-0000) (always the same) - it says "Our records indicate that you are calling from a SMS voice message equipped handset. If you have recently purchased a handset that does not contain this feature press 1, otherwise press 2." How can I make this stop?

Just installed Handcent and so far Im loving it. Way better texting app then what comes stock from HTC. However I do have a question. How do I stop the HTC app from popping up with text message notifications? Right now I get both the HTC and the Handcent notification at the same time when a text comes through.

I just wanted to know how do you make a pop-up text/messag after the start up of an .APK like saying "created by blah blah blah" and then after that the app or game loads normally. Just something like would make the .APK made by you. I saw one of this in modded game, saying "mod made by ...." So yeah, that's it.

I have a couple of questions about notifications on the Captivate.
1) My ringer, when someone calls me, starts off quiet for a few seconds then goes to full volume. The ringtone I have doesn't do that by itself, it must be a setting. Is there a way to make it ring full volume as soon as someone calls me?
2) Is there a way to make the phone vibrate when receiving a text message either while the phone is on vibrate or on normal volume.

I am using an Executor [fixed thread pool] with my own ThreadFactory that adds a Looper:
CODE:...............
I am running a thread that makes network requests but if the network fails I would like a dialog message to be displayed to the user. This process is rather involving since it requires making AND displaying the request in the UI thread. I can wait for the user's response to the dialog by simply adding a Loop to the network thread and wait for a message to be send from the UI thread. This allows me to encapsulate the network requests in a while(tryAgain) thread. All works well except when the Looper.loop() method is called the second time (after a second network error dialog is displayed) and a message is sent by the dialog (in the UI thread) to the network thread's handler:
CODE:.............
In the AlertDialog instance is an OnClickListener:
CODE:...............
I've checked that the thread is still active with handler.getLooper().getThread().isAlive() which always returns true but it still gives me "sending message to a Handler on a dead thread". How is it that the Message/Handler has decided that the thread is dead? Shouldn't it rely on the .isAlive() method? In the end I am trying to avoid replicating the thread management build into the Android OS .

Sometimes when I receive messages it makes the notification sound and will show message in notification bar but the text of the message will not appear in the text thread. Used to happen every once in a while, now doing it multiple times a day. I use Handcent but I doubt that is the problem because the messages dont show up in the regular messaging either. Just want to see if i am alone with this problem.

For some reason, ever since I upgraded my HTC Hero to the latest Rom today, I have received two message tones and notifications for every text message I receive. I don't know why this has started happening as no new apps have been installed apart from those that were erased during the upgrade.

People are still sending me texts even though I can't read them. I can still hear notification sounds. I've gotta get a replacement quick, but I also need to get the important texts I missed. Is there any way I can get them through my mac?
To be clear, the screen is completely blank but I can still unlock it via touch pattern. It takes a few tries but Android File Transfer on the mac will tell me if it can or can't connect. If it can't, I just try again and I can get it. So the touch part still works, it just doesn't show any information.
The phone is a Galaxy Nexus. When I connect it to my Mac, I can see the files in it via the Android File Transfer window. However, I can't find the texts here.
I have the Android SDK installed and I was told I can do this: adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db..However the device shows up as offline when I do adb devices. I can't figure out a way get it showing up as online without being able to use the screen.

I have noticed in the text message app if I create a new message and click the icon button next to enter recipient to choose a contact from my contacts there are contacts from just about everyone who has emailed me on my gmail account! This is not ideal at all.. I Would like just the contacts in my phone to be available. How do I remove all of those gmail contacts.

How can I make the ListView immediately stop scrolling on a finger down event? It keeps scrolling if I give it a big swipe and doesn't stop immediately if my finger is pressed down again. Any idea?

So I gave in and downloaded Hand cent for my Evo. Can someone tell me how to stop my other message application from sending messages. As it currently stands I'm getting 2 notifications each time a message comes through. Sorta annoying.

So I have everything set up to automatically use my Google Voice number now, and started getting SMS texts in both my messaging inbox and in GV. I figured out I needed to turn off the SMS forwarding in GV, but it turns out I like using the default messaging app more than the one in GV.
Is there a way to make the GV app stop checking for SMS messages but still download my voicemail? I don't want to make it stop checking all together but I'd like to use the other app for SMS's.

For the last few weeks when I get a text message or email I get the regular notification but also another/different "icon" for the same message; so I end up with two icons in my notification bar. And the only way the "new" icon can be cleared from my notification bar is if I physically pull down the bar and press clear (even if I've read the message it stays there until I clear it). It's starting to drive me crazy...my ringtone even goes off twice. Anyone have an idea on why this is happening? I don't have any third party message apps installed.
