I remember trying Message+ awhile ago and not liking it. Was thinking of giving it another try with this phone. Thoughts?
I use chomp. Lots of nice features.
I practically live on Message+ because I can receive and reply from my s8, iPhone 7+, iPad pro, and SurfaceBook. I've used Textra, Chomp, Messenger, tried all of them, but have always gone back to Message+.
I never tried messages+ but it has kind of a low rating and bad reviews on the Playstore. I use Textra, it's my favorite now but there are many to choose from.

I liked Message+ for the most part with previous phones, but it got to be a battery hog for no apparent reason, slowed down my phone, etc. I've stayed away from it since. I'm not minding the Samsung Messaging app so far. I'm usually a Textra user, because it's so light. But I like the stock app for now.

With Message+ though, if you receive a msg, and you left your pc on at home, msg gets delivered and pops up on pc, it doesnt show as unread and I missed msgs that way, at least when I tried it awhile ago

Incoming messages should send alerts to all of your connected devices. I get notified at my primary phone, my remote devices, and my Huawei watch. If I acknowledge the notification on one device, it syncs across other devices. It's been that way for me for a while.
I use MySMS in conjunction with Rambox. It's awesome as it allows you to reply to text messages at work without using your phone.
Used to be huge fan of GoSMS Pro but too many stinking ads......I use paid version of Textra and love it.
I recently switched to Pulse and it is definitely my favorite SMS app so far. Native black theming and lots of different settings and options. It has the ability to use any device to text, but it's a monthly payment. Has the ability to do lifetime for 10$ though. I might do that here soon.
I like Message+ because of all the customization you can do. It is more than the stock Samsung or android messager. Also, Verizon keeps your texts so that if you reset your phone or switch phones you can download all your messages back.:good:

I agree 100%. Message + shows on all my devices & has tons of customization options. No need to use anything a
else.
One feature I'd like to have is send delay. Auto-correction can play havoc sometimes. It'd be useful if I have 3, 5 seconds to edit my text.
anyone else having problems sending MMS through Message+
Message + for me too. I normally use Textra myself but am liking the features of Message +.
Message + is getting annoying. I am trying to like it. I hate how it highlights certain words which make them difficult to edit. I realize it is to show emoticons but still.
Message + on galaxy s8... Has anyone experienced old messages being delivered to new recipients? I have noticed that I have about 3 copies of every message in a conversation. It also appears as if pictures were being sent to random groups of people. Which I'm sure some of you can imagine could be potentially embarrassing.

Couldn't you turn that off in Settings - Enable Smart Emojis?

I like Textra a lot. Heck, I like them all, Chomp, Handcent, GoSMS, even Messenger. However, as I carry 4 phones and 3 tablets, plus desktops/laptops, I have to use one that can sync across multiple devices.
Hey there,
I want to change/enable the notification sounds on a new mail for the Outlook app.
I got to:
Settings --> E-Mail section --> Notifications --> sound for a new message
If I select this, I will be redirected to the notification settings of Android, where I can disable notifications.
Anyone having this as well?
How shall I change the sounds then?
Attached some screenshots of the screens (in German)
Anyone does have an idea?
I do have this in several apps, but here it's driving me nuts.
I had the same problem with Outlook. Ended up with uninstall, and changed notification sound first thing when I re-installed. Worked like a charm.
Any solution yet?
I'm having the same issue. I tried unistalling, rebooting and reinstalling but the issue is still there. I like to set different incoming message tones as I monitor several different accounts.
I'm having the same issue. I tried unistalling too, rebooting and reinstalling too, but the issue is still there. Sound for Outgoing is ok. Carsten
I connected Microsoft about this issue. After mentioning that it was in a Huawei P20 Pro, this is the response that I received:
"Thank you, i understand but this is really related to Huawei devices as it works on other devices with Android Oreo.
I'm really sorry about that but as i have said, this was reported to our Engineering Team and they confirm that's related to Huawei devices as they are customized.
Please let me know if you have any other questions"
Typical useless Microsoft answer
Same problem here. Can't change default tone for Messages, Gmail, Outlook, Outlook calendar and more... According to Huawei support (Norway), the development team is aware of the issue, and are "working on it".
See this thread on how to access the Settings necessary to customize the notifications for all apps.
It works great! Let me know if you need help getting it working.
I've also created a thread here on how to do this with Tasker. I have unique notifications for each of my apps now, plus you can set additional conditions/triggers the other apps or methods don't allow. If you're not using Tasker yet you're really missing out on the potential this phone has. You can find the thread here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/hu...-to-custom-app-notifications-rid-one-t3821776
If it is a Huawei problem it is strange that you can set notifications for some apps (Hangouts and Whatsapp for instance) and not others. You would think if google can sort it for Hangouts they could do it for the messaging app! Makes no sense to me.

It's because some apps handle notifications in-app (like WhatsApp) and others let the Android system handle them. The ones that rely on Android handling in EMUI 8.1 seem to be forced to a single default sound. It's actually a very simple explanation as to what's happening, as to WHY Huawei would do this I'm as confused as you. There are a few available workarounds at least.

I agree but why for instance are someone like Google inconsistent between their own apps (hangouts / messaging). The whole thing is nuts.

Yeah that blows my mind too. Different development teams, lack of a base standard and poor communication between teams maybe? That would be on par for some of Google's past work lol. A lot of programs have become fragmented from their own counterparts within the Google ecosystem I would think.

Perhaps because Android Messages is installed as a system app on the P20 Pro.

Thank you for linking this!
I now have a P20 Lite and my wife has an Honor 10.
This was driving me crazy, but that solution worked perfectly. Especially as I was already using Nova!
Cheers!
I have the same problem. Uninstalling Outlook and reinstalling, I now get a sound but I still can't change it. It only allows "Outlook Email" as my sound.
Same with the Sky Sports and BBC news app, I get the generic notification sound, no option for there own breaking news sound.
Same issues with Huawie P20 pro
I have the same problem with outlook, new mail notifications, very annoying!
for sent mail sounds, the option to change the sound is available, but no option to change the sounds for the received mail, it just doesn't make sense to me at all!
I agree it must be down to Huawie P20 pro
solved !
I have the very same problems, after reading many threads on here I came across this, and the app works 100%

If anyone still having trouble changing the sound for the received email on outlook.
Just install Alertify from google playstore and set a specific sound to use for outlook. Personally I really depend on seeing when an email arrives and I set up a car alarm mp3 to go off to be sure of it.
Hope this helps someone.
Hello
First sorry for my English
I have P30 Pro and have a problems with notification, they delay.
In home have another phone and tablet with same account and when I'm in home can make the difference. In my P30 Pro I received notification with 2-3-5 minutes delay, sometimes the delay is 20 minutes. Today morning I received sms from yesterday evening and this is not single case..... I try a couple of things in setting, but nothing is changed, maybe can't set the correct things. Most app that have delay is Gmail and tapatalk, and obviously sms. Maybe only Facebook not delay notifications.
Can anyone have this problem and can I fixed?
Thank you in advance
And why? ?
I'm using Facebook messenger app. Crazy, I know.
The Why: Because I already have it for the occasional FB message, so I thought I would give it a try. It's not bad, and I like the chat heads. I don't share anything too personal over it, so I'm not concerned. One day I might stop being lazy and try some others out.
Google Messages works a treat for my usage...
Textra ftw. No other texting app better, none as customizable. I also use WhatsApp for friends out of the USA and for sending video and photos to my most talked to friends

I use Google Messages right now but I do miss the customization that Textra offered and how fast and smooth it is but the one major thing that prevents me from using it every time is the lack of archiving message threads feature that text apps like pulse and messages have. It keeps me away cause sometimes I want to delete a message thread but often times I just want to archive it cause there may be images, information, or just the fact that I want to see my text history with that person. Which Textra would add this feature instead of just the deleting the whole thread.
Textra here too
Fast and simple and heavily customisable
Whats app, facebook messenger.

Yes I agree I gave it 3 stars and mentioned this in my review to the developer. I told them it would be a 5 star if there was a way to backup and restore or archive them as to not lose them from phone to phone or in cases you need to data reset your phone. They responded to me and said they would look into it and nothing... this was about 2 years ago.
Textra is love, Textra is life, no other compromise.
Google messages. I have used textra alot before. But just switched to Google and it's been smooth and exactly what I need.
Google Messages for me.
Smooth, useful features, and web messaging from other devices.
As a non US résident, I don't have access to those fancy text apps nevermind to a supercharged network !
Hence, where I am from, texting is a thing of the past!
I use Telegram which is, in my opinion, light years ahead it's competition in terms of features and one of the last really secure platform there is! (Among with signal)
+ Channels
Google messages, Whatsapps and Telegram.
Used to use textra, then chompsms, now pulse.
I got tired of backing up my messages when changing phones (I switch between 3 at least once a week.)
Pulse auto syncs messages and restores automatically upon a new login.

You guys use text messaging? Damn...
It's 2019, use Signal.
Using Google messages, simple, works for me and has a web client for the rare time I don't have my phone next to me
Textra
Great app no issues
Using the stock messaging app for the time being but considering moving to google messaging app because of the web client, which was very convenient back when I had my Nokia 6.1
Textra , it's awesome!

Hi everyone, as the title suggests, I have a serious problem with notifications from the Vivo X90PP on Garmin Epix Gen 2.
To be more specific, notifications from all apps on the phone are ALL working, except Whatsapp message notifications for one-time chats and group chats. Phone calls on whatsapp, the backup start notification, arrive and are displayed on the Garmin Epix, only the messages NO!
I gave every existing permission on the smartphone and the garmin, I also tried to format the garmin and install WA again. NOTHING. They worked for a day (Monday) then yesterday morning it stopped sending WA Business notifications and normal WA in the afternoon (I use the phone in dual sim).
I tried with only one account on the device at a time, but nothing. I don't know what to do anymore, I also wrote to Garmin Assistance and I'm waiting for a reply, and above all I trust a lot in the help of the XDA community.
I forgot, all the Apps are updated to the latest version and Vivo is with version PD2227B_A_13.0.20.7.W10.V000L1 (any news for security updates and various improvements to the software?).
I thank all those who will and can help me.
Update: I'm trying a Galaxy Watch 3 with TizenOS, same problem here too. No notification of W.A. messages only. Could it be a W.A. app settings/permissions issue?
I'm receiving my Epix 2 PRO on Tuesday, I will let you know if I have the same problem.
Update: The problem lay in the DARK mode. I deactivated the dark mode, I was able to verify that everything is now working. Setting the black theme through a single app doesn't create the problem, the problem is only through the dark theme through the VIVO settings. I hope this feedback helps
