I wasn't sure where to put this but does anyone know how to stop my phone making double alerts when I get a text? Because when I get a new text, Hand cent will post an icon in the notification panel and there will always be another notification icon next to it, I think it is the stock app doing that. Now I have set Hand cent as my default messaging app and I am running the 2.1 v3 leak.

I have handcent on my phone and whenever I get a text, the handcent and stock icons show up in the taskbar. How do I stop the default notification from showing up and just have the handcent one?
View 3 Replies View RelatedJust 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.

View 3 Replies View RelatedJust a heads up about text messaging billing. Alright call me cheap, but I only have the $5 250 messages on my plan but it suits me just fine I never go over.Well i just got my bill and wouldnt you know I went over by almost double. Turns out more often then I thought I was sending blank texts and double texts. People weren't saying anything to me because they thought that it was just user error but when it kept happening people finally started saying something to me.Its not worth trying to argue with verizon over it, its like $14, so I will just up my plan a bit, but just watch it.For some of you its moot because you have unlimited, but for those that dont just thought I would share.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have two questions about my htc Droid Eris. Is there a way to make capitals that are not at the beginning of sentences, for proper names, etc. and Is there an easier way to save text messages? I know I can e-mail them to myself, or copy and paste them into Ever note, but this takes forever if I have a lot of them to save. Is there a way to quickly copy an entire thread?
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhenever I turn on my phone, it will resend a text that I sent to someone from a conversation previous to when I turned it off. It used to send just blank texts to the first one or two or three people in my messages, but now it sends full texts that I sent from before by itself. I deleted all my undelivered texts. Plus I got task killer and I shut down my messages before I turn my phone off but it still does it. How do I stop this!
View 4 Replies View RelatedOkay my best friend and myself always have to have the latest phone.
So we both got Moto droids on it's first launch but the Camera sucked horirbly... as well as the keyboard was iffy and it was too heavy
2 weeks later we got Eris...but noticed a big difference in the eris and the droid. While the dorid, in my opinion, is big and ugly and too rectangular...it's faster vs a nice looking lighter eris but i understand the processor and fragmentation of the OS and all that Jazz
So then he told me about the Pre plus and we tried it and I love the concept of the OS however I want to come back to the eris because A)lack of apps, B)Call Quality sucks on the Pre plus 3)I love Android and all it's features
Yet when i came back to the eris it's still slow even after i did some update to it(idk what the update was for as it's still on 1.5). So are there any suggestions as to what I can do about making my phone lag less(5 seconds to open an app or load messages or emails is ridiculous) and the battery is horrible but i hear I have to "train" it. I don't understand why I would have to train something to not die but idk.
Any help would be greatly appreciated and please keep the bs & rude comments to yourselves
Sorry for any typos(TYPING SUPER FAST AND I DONT FEEL LIKE SPELL CHECKING) LOLZ.
So out of the blue today my hand cent starts getting 2 messages each time i get a text message. Even displays both of them in the bubbles. I've made sure hand cent is the default and of course I've disabled the stock message apps. But after I installed the new froyo update I have 2 txt msg stock apps. Messaging and Text Message. Anyone know what .apk to remove to get remove them and where those apks are... and the big thing... how to get the dang double messages to stop. It stinks because it makes me always have an icon on the notification bar saying I've got unanswered messages.
View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to extend the time that the backlight stays on whilst making a phone call?
Sure, I know that you can press the 'end call' button to end a call, but about three or four rings into the call, the backlight goes out, meaning that the on-screen 'end call' option is disabled, presumably also meaning that turning on the speakerphone during a call is going to need some tactile finger acrobatics.
Is it possible to make the eris phone an access point to the Internet? I have the Verizon aircard now. I would like to use the Eris to connect my computer and WiFi to the Internet.

I have been doing some reading about power conservation on the Eris, to extend battery time. Several people have mentioned dumping the standard SMS app and going with 3rd party. I decided to download ChompSMS and Handcent to try out. So far, I think I like Handcent the most, but everytime I get a message, all three apps fire off a notification.I have uninstalled ChompSMS, but I still get both the Eris app and Handcent notifications. What is the best was to disable the Eris app? I tried killing everything with ATM, but it just comes back whenever a message comes in.

View 1 Replies View RelatedQuestions about alerts: 1) Is there a way to get your alerts to be sound only? It still plays a sound AND vibrates, and that's driving me nuts. 2) Is there a way for the "native" alert sound management software to recognize imported files for alerts? I've used a downloaded program that will allow me to pick song files, but it's use of them is inconsistent, even though when I go to the setting, it still has the file I chose listed.

I initially thought maybe it was an app, but this has happened with nothing running except the default apps.

View 1 Replies View RelatedJust wondering, on 1.5, the Ringer/Alerts volume was locked together so however loud the Ringer volume was, the notification volume would be the same. Since upgrading to 2.1 OTA, they are no longer linked together. Is there any way I can link them back together so they are they same volume without having to individually change each one? It's kind of annoying when I set my Ringer volume to low, and all of the sudden I get a text and it's almost 3 times as loud.
