Merged messaging app for 4G Evo?

[JacobMiW]

So being a Blackberry user for two years, one thing I loved about it was how I had e-mails, facebook notifications, and SMS/MMS all in one folder. The other night, I noticed that I needed this ability back ASAP because I didn't come home until 5am from drinking and my mom, who was trying to get ahold of me through e-mail, was upset I didn't reply. I do know about the GMail app but I liked the Blackberry where it would just blink everytime I got a new message.

So therefore, what apps do you recommend for my messaging needs, especially one that could put everything in one folder like a widget?

I'm not aware of any apps that aggregate everything together like that (mostly because people generally DON'T want that).

You can selectively enable/disable the message light indicator though, if you want to make sure it blinks for emails only.

As of right now there is nothing that will give you what Blackberry offers. There are a few apps that make an attempt at it but fall short IMO. Otherwise you can manually refresh your email account and look for new mail.

If it was that important, why didn't your mom just call you?

Myself who enjoys partaking in cocktails pretty much every friday night has the experience that when my wife trys to call me I can't hear the ringing of the phone over the music playing in the bar, thus when she needs to get in touch with me she too either emails me or texts me, because I am always looking at my phone to see if I got any texts or emails.. Those little numbers that show who called in the phone log are a little hard to read at 2am after 7 hours of drinking...

Sorry for being off topic here..

You can just set the LED notification for your email or text message no?

I am Deaf. I rely on texts and e-mails.

I put my phone on vibrate when I'm out in the bars after 12 - 13 beers. I have a hard time focusing on the keyboard and can't type in the phone number. My wife suggested this after I was too drunk to figure out how to answer the phone.

Use handcent sms and use the indicator led... for new text... Remember the evo only has red amber and green..
