So I am new to the Android phone, have had it for about a month. Hopefully this isn't a stupid question but how do I get the reminders from my calendar with a sound to go with it.

Is possible to change just calendar notifications to a MP3 file?
View 1 Replies View RelatedIts probably just because I am a tard but can you make it so when you put it on silent you cant hit the volume up and down on the Motorolla Droid.Also can I make my notifications vibrate instead of sound or no sound?
View 1 Replies View Relatedjust got the phone a week ago.i'm using Google Calendar exclusively for all my date keeping. it's great to see that the default calendar apps sync with google calendar (GC)now, in GC (the web version) i set up the default reminders for new appointments to be a) email and b) sms.i noticed that, in order to get notifications on my PHONE as well, i need to add c) pop up to it. tested and that seems to work fine. will that pop up show anywhere else as well though? i never used that notification option before.and i noticed the following two annoying things:
1) default appointment notifications not set when appointment made using phone calendar application
when i make a new appointment from my PHONE, it shows up on the web version after a sync, that's all very cool. BUT then the appointment does not get assigned the default notification options (email and SMS), it only has pop up. any way to work around that? can't seem to find options for that.
2) when appointment made via application, web version of the appointment shows me as a GUEST who has confirmed that's a bit rubbish?! i.e. the experience is totally different from the appointments i set using the web version of GC.
I know where to change the notifications sound but I can choose different sounds for different applications? (Exchange, Gmail SMS). If not is there a software that can do this?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am creating one notification based on some event. This notification will only create sound. I just want to generate the sound using this notification, but no UI. Following is my code for this:
// make notification sound whenever the device is connected or disconnected
Notification notification = new Notification();
notification.defaults |= Notification.DEFAULT_SOUND;
notification.flags = Notification.FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL;
NotificationManager manager = (NotificationManager)
mContext.getSystemService(Context.NOTIFICATION_SERVICE);
// notify to all, manager.notify(0, notification);
I am facing few problems and have some doubts. I tried to search for answers in this post but could not find, so I am posting here for your people's suggestions:
1. Here I am using 0 as id for the notification. Is it good in practice. Since, I don't want to that this notification conflicts with other.
2. I have one doubt, about notification ids, e.g. if i keep my notifications id as 1 and some other application also have set that as 1. In that case, will my notification be updated. or Android treats, application's notifications differently.
3. Is it necessary to add FLAG_AUTO_CANCEL flag in my notification. Because, I think this is used when notification will appear in the status bar. But in my case, I have no UI. It means nothing will appear in status bar.
4. Currently there is one problem. When my notification makes sound, sometimes it seems that it is suppressed or distorted by any other sound or event. I am not sure what is happening there.
i would love to see an app that you can record custom notifications that would convert the recorded sounds to emulate the "DROOOID" sound, like say "GMAIL" when you get an email, or whatever notifications you have on your phone. yeah, I could record things at work, distort them to sound similar, but a downloadable app on the phone would be AWESOME!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI want to change the alert sounds for various events: email notification, SMS, power status, Google Talk, etc. I can change the alert sound via Settings->Sound & display->Notification ringtone, but the sound is identical for all the various notifications which seems ridiculous. Is there an app or widget which allows me to assign different notification sounds to different events?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI don't think there is, but maybe someone knows how. Does anyone know if there is a way to turn on sounds on gmail notifications. I want to be able to still receive notifications popups, but I don't want sound to play on them. I know I can turn off sounds on all notifications but I only want to on Gmail.

View 2 Replies View RelatedWithout having to add notifications to each one. I figured out how to add a calendar for all my contacts birthdays so that they automatically show up in my calendar (some of them even twice for some reason) but I see no option to add notifications to these. Someone on the forum helped me add the contacts birthday calendar and mentioned he had a 3-day advance notification in case he forgot to get them a gift.

View 4 Replies View Relatedknow of an app that supports notifications for calendar invites in Android?
Coming from iOS, if I receive a meeting invite, I receive a notification an invite has been sent so I can review it before accepting etc.....I cannot seem to find the same functionality in Android.
As I am using IMAP for email, invites don't show up natively in the email app so I can't get a notification that way. I am using Caldav for my calendar (similar to the protocol I used on iOS) and so was hoping that invite notifications would be supported.
HTC Hero - no sound or vibrate for text notifications I have had my Hero for about a week (first Droid!). I am no longer getting sound or vibrate text notifications. I get sound for email notifications, but no vibrate. The LED indicator is working fine. I don't really care about the email notifications, but I need the sound and vibrate for texts! I have checked the forums and found several threads where downloading Sound Manager resolved the issue. It didn't work for me. I have also checked Settings> Sound & Display > Notification Sound. There is a tone selected. I tried a battery pull as well.
View 4 Replies View RelatedWhen I go into both individual settings for text and email it allows me to change the sound notification but it wont save it. I can change it and then back out of it and if I go right back into it, it keeps defaulting back. It wont save the sound I am changing it to?

View 2 Replies View Related1. Have you figured out how to turn specifically the Gmail sound notifications off? I don't need my phone yelling DROID everytime I get an email. Txt's, yes.
Email I can check up on my own time.
2. I copied over some video files using the mounted device on my pc. So how do I get to them to watch em? No internal video player outside youtube? Recommendations?

View 14 Replies View RelatedI want to set it up so that when my wife, boss and best friend call me , my phone rings out-loud or vibrates even if the phone is muted or on silent. (Bonus points if you can get it to do this for when they send me a text message as well...)I want to be able to customize notification sound levels for different apps. For example, I want the Text Messaging app and Calendar to make a loud sound when I receive a message, Google Voice to vibrate, Facebook to be silent and only flash a light and Google Talk to be completely silent (but still show up in the notifications bar)I want different light colors for different notifications. For example, green for emails, blue for text, white for facebook and purple for IMs.I
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy SII. I updated to the stock ICS last week, and ever since the update, my text notifications and email notifications will periodically mute themselves. Screen still lights up, notification is still in the notification bar, but no sound.
I've changed the settings to ensure I have them correct several times. I did a master reset as well. Doing a hard reset will fix the issue temporarily, but it always goes back to not working.
I got the 4.4 KitKat upgrade and now my calendar notifications won't close out??? I slide the red "X" but they continue to come up as though they're being "snoozed"?
View 3 Replies View RelatedNeed the ability to have multiple notification sounds per contact. For example: if my friend emailed me, I'd hear one customized sound; if she texted me, I'd hear another; and if she called me, she had a 3rd sound. Now, I know the Inc cannot currently do this, so here's my question: is there an app out there for this?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've had this happen to me twice now over the past week. It seems that periodically my notification sounds will stop. I will see that I have new emails but never heard the sound. I will then go send myself a test text message and it will vibrate but make no sound. I've made sure all my volumes are up, and even went in to pick a notification sound and it will work fine in the sound chooser when I pick it.
I also noticed both times that it did this if I go in to Spare Parts or Battery History and look my phone is staying awake and Android Usage is the one with the partial wake lock. Generally I don't have any sleep issues, it only happens when my notification sounds have also quit working. The only way to fix it is power off and back on and then all is good again.
Quick question about Handcent and the notification sounds. My wife's Droid was doing the whole "droid" sound everytime she received a text up until tonight and it stopped. Same with emails. For the past two weeks it has been fine, but now all of the sudden it stopped. Anyone have any idea? I went through and checked all the settings and they look good, but still nothing. I even uninstalled Handcent and tried reinstalling it and still nothing.
View 1 Replies View RelatedThe only thing I've been able to find is how to change the default alert. Ideally I'd like one sound for email and another for text messages. It was pretty easy to set this on BB.
