Turn on Text Notifications while on Call?

[nedqadams]

Does anyone know how to do this?

phone> settings> call alerts> check notify during calls

On a Turbo?

 

[nedqadams]

Yeah, I don't see it.

 

[maxman1]

Yeah, I don't see it.

Because it's not there. What exactly are you wanting to do do by your original question?

 

[nedqadams]

I honestly just want to get audible notifications of test messages while I'm on calls so I can respond in a timely manor.

Ah, gotcha. I honestly don't know if it can be done natively or not (never crossed my mind) but I "thought" you would get a beep tone similar to another incoming call but perhaps not. Unless you get a better answer from someone else, might have to explore the 3rd party notification apps if it's important for you to have instant notification prior to ending a call.

I can't recall if it vibrates when a text comes in. Maybe not. But I use an app called "Missed Text Reminder" to notify me every 15 minutes (you can change that) if I have an unread text message.

It can't be done.

Why would you expect Google/Motorola/Verizon to give users the choice to turn something like that on or off?!? Even though it used to be a feature (or is a feature on most phones) it's bad to have that kind of consistency in an OS.

Oh and I hope they come up with more popup consents for us to click on like every time when you turn on GPS or update Apps for other things like Wi-Fi. I would like to be reminded every time I connect to the same public network that it might be dangerous. I have the memory of a goldfish* and constantly do things without knowing what I'm doing like most users and need lot's of pop up warnings on my phone.
