Possibility of message notification without always visible tray

greetings readers,
i moved to openbox WM after using gnome for some time. i love the fact that i can undecorate applications and gain more usable screen real estate. i realized how unnecessary the top and bottom panels in gnome were ... until i started missing the tray message notifications by iconified pidgin and xchat.
so my question is basically the following:
is there a tray application with the following properties
0) the system tray would remain hidden when not needed
1) when a new message arrives in pidgin, the system tray would start blinking or simply just appear in view but DOES NOT steal focus
basically my priority is to save screen estate while still enjoying the benefits of system tray message notifications.
also i m looking for visual notifications not audible ones.

I just used to have stalonetray running at the bottom of my screen. I made its height small enough to fit along with my conky 16px I think it was. Doesn't take up too much space.
Since I switched to i3, I find its better to just not use trays as I can simply assign a whole workspace for skype and so I don't need any tray.

Message notifications without specifying name of sender??

Is there a way on the lock screen to light up the iPhone to notify you once you receive new message without showing the name of the sender?? Or just to show a banner of the message? For example just say 'whatsapp message' rather than 'whatsapp message from XX.'

I would check the settings for whatsapp, since that is a 3rd party app. However, I can tell you that is not a setting for the native messages app. You either get a banner that there is a message from xx, or you see message from xx and then a short preview of the message, depending on the setting.

TS2755 How do I know if someone sent me a picture message without always having to have LTE on?

It's frustrating when I'm having a conversation with somebody and suddenly they stop talking. It's even more frustrating when I find out that they didn't stop talking, they just sent me a picture. Unfortunately, because I obviously don't want to have to keep LTE on all the time, I have no way of knowing when someone sends me a picture. Is there any way for me to get some sort of notification without using cellular data? I would just like to be able to know that there is something there.

I would second that prior comment - not sure what you are trying to do
In many cases the pictures will come through even on 3G especially if the other person is on a GSM carrier like T-Mo or AT&T
The text / Message notification should ding - and you see a badge icon notification if that is turned on
Sorry if I am completely missing your point

Make my bookmarks list always visible even without opening Firefox

Hi,
After having unsuccessfully tried for years to install the bookmarks icon in the systray or in the quick launch bar, I had the good surprise sometime ago -and without knowing how it happened - to view all my bookmarked files on the left side of every windows in Firefox. I appreciated it, even if it took plenty of room and narrowed the active window... I dared not clicking the little cross ... but yesterday, in the place of my bookmark list, there stood another program which I had been consulting and was not needing on the moment... so I clicked the little cross...and have lost (for ever ?) my bookmarked list always visible. Hope I made me understood, I would like to have an easy access to my registered bookmarks, even without opening Firefox !
Thank you for your help.

Not always receiving MMS message notifications

I haven't received any MMS message notifications from my friends for approx. the last week, and they certainly have been sending them to me. I know this is definitely happening from Sprint and Verizon customers trying to send to me. I have had issues in the past where receiving from those networks would be flaky (meaning, sometimes I'd get them, sometimes I wouldn't). However, I receive ALL of their SMS, just not the MMS message notifications. Does anyone else have this problem?
Thanks!

Okay, I found the problem. After being elevated to a Level 2 technician, it turns out that upon changing my text plan over to the "Family Text Plan" last week, that it prevents MMS from being sent to iPhone users of that family account. I switched back to the iPhone Text Plan, and now all is well and I can received MMS again.
I asked her how many iPhone customers are being affected by this "publicly unknown" issue, and she said, "Probably a LOT!". She did say that later this summer all that will change with the new iPhone 3.0 MMS ability becomes active. HAHA, all those people will finally start getting texts that didn't know/understand before.

Trigger notification without user action...

Hi All,
I followed below blog and achieved publishing/Broadcasting messages to logged in users. Everything is working fine. My issue is, user must have to do some action in portal, then only the display popup (notification) will be displayed (poped up). I want this popup/message will be shown to the user even he/she is idle ( i mean without any action of end user in portal).
Brodcast messages to logged on users in Portal(Part1)
Brodcast messages to logged on users in Portal(Part2)
Above blog works only when user do some action in portal. I want this message to be displayed without any user action.
Is there any API / Service I can use????
Please help...
Thanks,
Pradeep

Nitesh,
Thanks...
Quick POLL??? its totally un related...
I want to show a message like SM02 transaction in ECC. some notification service... like notifiying logged in users about system down time or software upgrades or some thing else.
I have already built the application and it is working fine.
As I kept the iview in content area of framework page, it will only refreshed/activated when some action happen in content area of framework page. so, I need some advice on.... even user is idle, this iview should be refreshed and show the pop up.
Issue here is: there are two iViews 1. Publish Notification and 2. Display Notification.
Publish notification iView is given to the users to trigger/publish notifications and Display Notification iView is kept under Content Area of Inner Page of the Framework page.
So, when Content area is refreshed or had some action, then only Dispaly Notification iView will be triggered and then pop up message (notification) is Visible.... Now I the requirement is, even when user is idle then also display notification iview/dynpage and its methods should execute.
Thanks,
Pradeep

Buritto/Hero 4.5 (MobileApplication) Scrollbar always visible?

I've tried for 3 to 4 days now...
To make a scrollers scrollbar always visible.
It seems to me extremely counterintuitive to make a scollbar not visible within a scroller that has (for example) a textarea in it.
You can't see that the text goes beyond the viewport and should be scrolled. Usually a scrolls purpose is to help identify there is more to scroll to.
Enough said there, making the scrollbar invisible or fade away is really bad (DESIGN Flaw).
Trying to make it appear initially is ultimately currently impossible from what I can tell (BUG & DESIGN flaw).
Don't recommend turning visiblity or alpha on. That was the first minute of four days no success.
ScrollerPolicy is only about should it appear when the content is larger and that is also not the issue.
You see for some backwards thinking reason the scroller only appears when your actually scrolling and then fades away when done.
I did override to disable fade out potentially (not perfect example for animated sliding action).
Well first I replaced the skin with something people can actually see too instead of the thin line of black on black. (using a spark skin not the default)
            import spark.skins.spark.VScrollBarSkin;
            public function init():void {
                xtc.getTextFor(title, contentTextArea);
                contentScroller.verticalScrollBar.setStyle("skinClass", Class(VScrollBarSkin));
                contentScroller.verticalScrollBar.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, bringMeBackPlease);
            public function bringMeBackPlease(e:MouseEvent):void {
                trace("bringMeBackPlease: " + e.type);
                trace("MOUSE: " + e.localX + " " + e.localY);
                var ai:AnimateInstance = contentScroller.verticalScrollBar.activeEffects[0];
                if(ai != null) {
                    if(ai.animation != null) {
                        ai.animation.stop();
                        ai.animation = null;
                        contentScroller.verticalScrollBar.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, bringMeBackPlease);
Okay well that reminds me I totally replaced the skin with a Catylist built one two but this animated fade functionality resides clearly in the Scroller class I think.
You'd possible be able to replace the Scroller class via Catylist but it only has a few simple objects to play with No textarea, no Scroller, etc.
I couldm't find a different none mobile spark scroller that isn't disfunctional in this way (fadeing scrollbars).
I even delved into using Effects to Fade it back
            //private var restoreSliderFade:Fade = new Fade();
skipping code it did fade the dcroller to view but I could not also make the scrollbar fade back.
I tried simulating drag operations, mousedown, move events etc. nohting can actually get the f!ng scrollbar to appear that I can find.
It's rare I result to forums so I'm hopeful people at Adobe in development see this stuff and actually realize the need a boolean on the MobileApplication Scroller Class that is something like autohideScrollbars with a default of false.
Please help ASAP anyone any work around??!!!
At this point I'm forced to try and make the scroller cut a line of text in half so the user thinks Oh I should scroll now... but where's the scrollbar?!
I've dynamically loaded the textarea in init and that resizes the thing.
I've added manually draging of the textarea (also seems wrong and should work by default)
            private function draggingContent(me:MouseEvent):void {
                trace("draggingContent" + me.toString());
                switch(me.type) {
                    case MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN:
                        dragging = true;
                        dragOrigin = contentScroller.contentMouseY;
                        scrollStart = contentScroller.verticalScrollBar.value;
                        break;
                    case MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE:
                        if(dragging == true) {
                            contentScroller.verticalScrollBar.value = (scrollStart + (dragOrigin - contentScroller.contentMouseY));
                        break;
                    case MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP:
                    case MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT:
                        contentScroller.setFocus();
                        dragging = false;
                        break;
                    default:
                        break;
with listeners in initi()
                contentTextArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, draggingContent);
                contentTextArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, draggingContent);
                contentTextArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, draggingContent);
                contentTextArea.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_OUT, draggingContent);
                contentScroller.setFocus();
I could go on with all the ways I looked at ever class property and function, delved through the debug viewer inspecting values before and during states of visibility.
Is there a way to access all the automation and disable certain ones like fading with my hack breaking other more useful smoothings, or override the ones I loath?!!
   Your angry MobileApplication Burrito Beta Testing Victim

I'm sorry to hear you've been having problems with this, but thank you for providing this feedback on here. It's really helpful for us to hear experiences like this so we can work to make things easier.
1. "making the scrollbar invisible or fade away is really bad (DESIGN Flaw)."
Native iOS and Android applications also fade away their scrollbars the same way, but they do initially show the scrollbar for a short time when the view is first loaded before fading them away.
Here's an enhancement request for allowing scrollbars to always be visible: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-29296
2. "Trying to make it appear initially is ultimately currently impossible from what I can tell (BUG & DESIGN flaw)."
This is something we thought about doing, but didn't have the time to implement in this release. See attached ZIP for an example of how you might do this.
There is an enhancement filed here: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-29299
3. "ScrollerPolicy is only about should it appear when the content is larger and that is also not the issue."
When you're using a mobile Scroller the horizontalScrollPolicy/verticalScrollPolicy govern whether scrolling is allowed in that direction. It doesn't have any further connection with the visibility of scroll bars like it does in a desktop Scroller.
4. "Well first I replaced the skin with something people can actually see too instead of the thin line of black on black. (using a spark skin not the default)"
The skin for the scrollbars has been updated since the preview release and will stand out more in the final release.
5. "I couldm't find a different none mobile spark scroller that isn't disfunctional in this way (fadeing scrollbars)."
On a desktop application you can hook up your own HScrollBar/VScrollBar directly to have more control over things like this, but in a mobile application only Scroller currently is able to handle touch-based scrolling.
It might make sense to enable touch scrolling without needing a Scroller. Here's the enhancement request for this: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/SDK-29300
7. "I tried simulating drag operations, mousedown, move events etc. nohting can actually get the f!ng scrollbar to appear that I can find."
Interesting idea, but faking a touch scroll is quite tricky and won't really get the results you are looking for in the final release so I would recommend not going further down this approach.
8. "It's rare I result to forums so I'm hopeful people at Adobe in development see this stuff and actually realize the need a boolean on the MobileApplication Scroller Class that is something like autohideScrollbars with a default of false."
This relates to the first two bugs listed above.
9. "Please help ASAP anyone any work around??!!!"
See the attached ZIP for an example application that demonstrates how to keep the scrollbars always visible, as well as a sample way of implementing the initial show and fade functionality.
It was a bit tricky to figure this out because both Scroller and ScrollerLayout affect the visibility of the scrollbars and change includeInLayout/scaleX/scaleY when things are not visible.
10. "Your angry MobileApplication Burrito Beta Testing Victim"
Again, thank you for your detailed feedback. I know working with preview releases can be very frustrating at times, but hopefully the information in this post helps ease the pain a little.
Please feel free to vote and comment on any/all of the bugs listed above.
Thanks,
Steve

Can anyone tell me where to find/download the talking tom cat message notification for iPhone4?

Can anyone tell me where to find/download the talking tom cat message notification for iPhone4?

I can't find any sort of "Talking Tom Cat" that provides message notifications, and without jailbreaking I can't see how it would be possible. The only Talking Tom Cat app I can find it a self-contained novelty app. If that's what you're referring to, just search the iTunes Store for "talking tom cat" and if the app is available in your country, you should find it. Be aware that while the app is free, the "gold coins" for all the accessories are definitely not free.
The forum in which you first posted is, by the way, for questions about the Communities themselves. Usually you'll get the quickest and most accurate results in you post in the forum dedicated for the product or service about which you have a question.

Turn off the vibration or message notification automatically during video recording.

Please add on mechanism to turn off the vibration or mute the message notification automatically during video recording, due to the motor vibration sound always reocrd into the video.

You could set your phone to silent http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Software-Updates/Lollipop-New-Features/m-p/955490#U955490 It's not ideal but it does the trick. I agree with you, I wish we had an option that if an app/game it's on immersive mode, like while using the camera, we had an option to deactivate the notifications popping and/or the notifications without having to set the phone to silent.

Message Notifications, can you customize?

I'm aware that you can assign custom ringtones to your contacts, but are you able to assign notification tones for when the SMS or MMS message you? It would come in handy to have different "tones" per contact so you know who is messaging you without looking at your device.
My previous phones have allowed me to do this, but I'm still learning the Droid system!

It is not possible to have notification tones for each contact in the stock message (sms/mms) application on Android phones. From what I understand, alternative messaging application will allow this. Handcent is one that I have heard of. I like the stock message application so I haven't tried different ones.

Different message recievers without BPM

Hi All,
If I want too send the 3 message records to 3 different recievers without BPM then how can I proceed.
For e.g. I have 3 records Rec1, Rec2, Rec3. I want to send them to 3 recievers then what could be the approach.
Another question: Is multimapping applicable only for BPM? Is it not possible to use multimapping without BPM.
Thanks,
Amit

How to turn on the message notification?

the message notification on my nokia 5230 is turned off and i dont know how to turn it on... i always have to check my inbox to see if i have any new messages

I'm having the same problem, my profile has an alert tone set, but still fails to notify me when I recieve a text message. Call alerts are still working. I have tried other profiles and they do not work either.
I suspect my device may be damaged, since this started happening shortly after I drove into a tree with it in my pocket...
If it's a software problem, will resetting to factory settings solve it?
Thanks in advance.

Looking for a SQL query to get all the possible Alert Messages from the Rules in a Management Pack

For reporting, I'm looking to get a SQL query of all the possible Alert Messages for Rules configured in a Management Pack (not necessarily the ones that have thrown alerts). I can do this for Monitors, but not for Rules.
The configured alert messages for the Management Pack Monitors
go like this: ManagementPack > MonitorView> RuleModule > RuleModule.Alert Message > Localized Text
The configured alert messages for the Management Pack Rules
should go something like this, but there is a missing link: ManagementPack > RuleView > RuleModule > ? Missing Link ? > Localized Text
The Rules are tied to the Module, but I don't see a connection from the RulesModule to the Alert Message that I see in the LocalizedText. The Rule names do not always equal the Alert name.
Can someone provide the missing link?

Hi,
please try below powershell code to find the corresponding management pack for specific alert:
$Alert = get-scomalert | where {$_.Name -like 'Agent Proxy Not Enabled*'} | select -first 1
If ($alert.IsMonitorAlert -eq "True") {
write-host "Ths is a monitor-generated alert"
get-scommonitor -ID $Alert.MonitoringRuleID | select Enabled, DisplayName, ManagementPack
else
write-host "This is a rule-generated alert"
get-scomrule -ID $Alert.MonitoringRuleID | select Enabled, DisplayName, ManagementPack
In addition, please also refer to the below link:
