Need custom program for BlueAlert Bracelet.

[Caferacer]

Alright, so I got a bluealert bracelet as an early christmas gift. It vibrates if I get an incoming call, or if my phone goes out of range of the bracelet. I love it thus far since sometimes I will miss a call because my phone is in a position I can't feel it vibrate.

My only problem is that is doesn't vibrate if I get an SMS or an email. Ideally it would vibrate once for a sms or an email, and keep vibrating for a phone call.

My question is how so I get the thing to vibrate for those as well? The phone views it as a headset via the bluetooth manager.

If someone can make up a little app to do this, I would be willing to paypal them $40. Nothing pretty, just something that tells the bluetooth to vibrate X number of times if a sms or email is received, and leave the incoming call functionality untouched.

Thanks!

Which phone do you have?

A titan with DCD's latest rom on it.

I doubt $10 will cover the cost to fix your issue.

Problem:

The bracelet receives "Incoming call" alert and vibrates on that.

The phone thinks it's a headset so you can only send it headset actions.

Let's assume it's as dumb as they get and simply vibrates when there's an auto channel open to the bracelet. Then what you need is for something to momentarily open the audio gateway to the headset when you receive a new message.

If you simply wanted vibrate on messages then I say look at Jetware's solution to manage voice notifications to bluetooth headsets.

Now if it's smarter and actually knows that it's an incomng call then the problem gets larger.

alright, I installed jetware's software.

When a message is received the green light on the bracelet flashes for longer than usual, but it does not vibrate.

This is with sms and email.

Could you post the cab for the jetware notifier?
This way people can actually analyse the notifier and perhaps patch it or modify it.

Here it is.

Your problem here is that there isn't a "vibrate my headset" command. This is usually a function of the headset that is vibrates on the "Incoming Call" alert.

This behavior hints that the bracelet is aware of "Incoming Call" verses "audio gateway opened" which isn't good for you.

Is there a *.jcf file on your phone?
That is the config file.
Maybe you can edit the incomming SMS part to match incomming call.

On the other hand, Kyphur is probably dead-on right with his analyses.

last time i checked it was perfectly okay to request custom software in dev and hacking, which is what the op is doing... he just needs to reword his thread title to reflect that properly.
