Android :: Not Able To Assign A Custom Text Alert
Jul 29, 2010
Please be kind, i have tried searching before posting and i seem to be as good as a chocolate fire guard. I have the samsung galaxy s and i installed hand cent sms (or something like that) which was good when it didn't freeze. My problem is, now that i have installed it i am now no longer able to assign a custom text alert as i had before, i have created a folder in the root and when i go to messages, settings, select ring tone i have the ones that came with the phone, plus option of default ring tone, can anyone help this stupid individual out. Also while your reading this novel and thinking "you really are useless" Is there anyway to find out WHEN people have sent there texts, it only shows the time it arrived.

How do I assign an MP3 or indeed other audio file for my TXT message alert.? I have created and assigned about 5 different ringtones to both individuals and groups, but I can't get the phone to accept a MP3 as the txt notification ?

I am able to download a ringtone from Zedge, but how can I get it to say a SMS alert tone or a Facebook alert tone? The only options that show up there are the preloaded sounds.

My requirement was to invoke a alert dialog with a string text that gets modified dynamically when the user hits a button every time
for example:
string str="you have clicked "+ count + "times";
where count is an integer variable that gets incremented every time the user hits a button. and when i assign this string to the text of an alert-dialog ,i get the alert-dialog at runtime but with an empty text value...ie. a naked alert-dialog with just OK cancel button.

Totally new to "smart phones" and feeling pretty dumb right now I have managed to download a bunch of sounds (mpga) and saved them in my "sounds" folder on my Captivate. And following advice, have gone into my Contacts, scrolled down, and assigned a file as ringtone, then hit "Save". When viewing the contact, it shows the file as being assigned as their ringtone. And then when the call comes in.... Rings as default. Whats going on? Do the sounds have to be in the Ringtone folder? If yes, how do I do that? If no, what am I doing wrong?

My only complaint about the Droid is the seeming lack of options for notifications.
Is there a way, or an app, that would allow you to assign different notifications to emails vs texts vs missed calls?
Also, does anyone know if there's a way to set the phone to re-notify you periodically if you have a notification that has not been looked at? I tend to leave my phone sitting on my desk at work and would like it to let me know if I missed a call or text while I was away from my desk.
Ideally I'd like to silence email notifications, but have text and missed call notifications with unique ring tones for each, and I'd like the phone to renotify me every 10 minutes or so if I have a text or missed call waiting for me.

So this is related to a question I asked earlier. I am trying to display an alert using a specified layout. My layout is:
And the code to call and show the alert dialog is..
When I run it I get an error saying:
Uncaught handler: thread main exiting due to uncaught exception
android.view.WindowManager$NadTokenException: Unable to add window -- token null is not for an application
I've looked through the android development site and can't figure it out. I think I'm just missing something obvious but the fix isn't jumping out at me. How can I get this alert dialog to display?

I made a custom alert dialog box to be displayed at the end of my game so that the player can enter its name to save it. The problem is when I call show() on the dialog appears but it's not vertically centered! It's a bit lower than it should and no matter what properties I set in the xml or when using setGravity().
I think it's the same problem as stated here: http://bit.ly/9tk0ld
but no one gave a proper answer. code...

I originally had an incredible but my fiance like it so much I swapped with her for the original moto droid. Well before that I had no problem putting custom alerts for email and text messages. Well now I have my own Incredible and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it again. Was something changed when the update to froyo went through or something? Someone help me out...I can't stand the preinstalled sounds.

I want to change the sound I hear when receiving a SMS message. I have successfully downloaded the BB sonar sound that I want to use.
I can't find the place to set the custom tone.
I see the list that the dx provides but no custom option.

Sorry if this has already been covered somewhere else but I've searched the website for quite some time and I can't seem to find the answer. I picked up the Captivate the other day and so far I love it but is there a way to assign custom non-Samsung message tones? I mean for texts and emails, calender alerts. When I open the apps and go to settings then change alert tone only the Samsung preloaded ones show up. I can choose any ringtone for calling, just not messaging. I downloaded several apps such as SMS Pop-Up and Chomp SMS to see if that would give me the option to choose any tone but no such luck. My last 2 phones have been a Blackberry Bold 9000 and a Backflip and both those phones had those capabilities. Anyone have any ideas?

I've been developing this app for a while now. Texdro makes it possible to receive an MSN-like notification on your computer as you receive a text message on your phone. If you click the notification you can send back a response. More features like conversations and such will come.

I switched to a Droid X from a BlackBerry. On the BlackBerry, not only could you set phone and SMS custom alerts and ringtones (in addition to custom ring profiles for certain contacts), you could also set email alerts.
So for example, if my husband emailed me, it would ring a custom alert for his email, not just for an email to that particular account. That meant I didn't need to look at my phone every time got an email to see who it was from. (I have a web-based business and I get literally hundreds of emails every day.)
On the BlackBerry, not only were there custom inboxes for each email account, there was a "universal" inbox. There doesn't seem to be a function exactly like that for the Android (I tried adding my Gmail accounts to the one there, but it keeps defaulting me back to each Gmail box).
Is there an app for this?
I have Ringo Pro for my custom sms and call alerts, but an email alert would be a lifesaver. There are a lot of BB converts to Android (and I'm sure more to come) who would gladly pay for an app to handle this. So far, it's the only thing I can see where the Droid X doesn't beat the BB.

I'd like to use AlertDialog as a Login or pin code or password dialog. Here is my code -
AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
alert.setTitle("Login"); alert.setMessage("Enter Pin :");
// Set an EditText view to get user input final EditText input = new EditText(this);
alert.setView(input);
alert.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
String value = input.getText().toString();
Log.d( TAG, "Pin Value : " + value); return;
} } );
alert.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub return;
} } );
alert.show();
How to code that all input text will appear like ' * ' - asterisk. I can't get my pin code value although it shows into asterisk. my code is below
private void accessPinCode_2() {
LayoutInflater factory = LayoutInflater.from(this);
final View textEntryView = factory.inflate(R.layout.dialog_login, null);
AlertDialog.Builder alert = new AlertDialog.Builder(this);
alert.setTitle("Login"); alert.setMessage("Enter Pin :");
alert.setView(textEntryView);
alert.setPositiveButton("Ok", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int whichButton) {
//String value = input.getText().toString();
EditText mUserText;
mUserText = (EditText) textEntryView.findViewById(R.id.txt_password);
String strPinCode = mUserText.getText().toString();
Log.d( TAG, "Pin Value : " + strPinCode); return;
} } );
alert.setNegativeButton("Cancel", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub return;
} } ); alert.show(); } } dialog_login.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><EditText xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
id="@+id/txt_password"
android:password="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="250px"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_below="@+id/password_text"
android:singleLine="true" />
I entered the value, but get null! How to solve? Debugging is stopped at this statement. When I pointed above mUserText null value being shown in popup.
String strPinCode = mUserText.getText().toString();
I use Android 1.6. Does it depend on Version?

I want to show an AlertDialog with one option that might change on every request. So for example at one time I want to show the option "add to contacts" while another time it should be "remove from contacts".
My code does work on the first time, however Android seems to cache the AlertDialog so that onCreateDialog is not executed next time. Therefore the option doesn't change anymore. Can I prevent this caching, or is there just another way of changing the option?
I am working with SDK 1.5 but using 1.1. Code...

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that they removed the text alert while on the phone w the recent 3.29.651.5 update? They added it to the update before this, but then removed it again on the the up to date software. I can't find anywhere on this forum where anyone else cares about this removal. Just thought I'd see if I'm the only one who misses this feature lol. And yes, I'm aware of Handcent and Chomp but I really prefer stock.

I notice that when im on a call and someone texts me I don't get any alert whatsoever. I have to look at my phone to see the text alert on the top bar. This is pretty silly and im hoping its just a setting that needs to be changed.
