I have developed an application wich helps you to receive your Android notifications on your (windows) PC via Wifi or USB. I thougt someone could use it and that's why I'm sharing it here!

Here is the Homepage (for the PC-Software):

And here is the app in the Play Store:

I hope someone likes it!

Please rate the App in Google Play and give me some Feedback of what you think!

You can also donate via PayPal if you want to!

Please give me feedback if there are some very serious translating mistakes ;) Thank you!

Nice ;) if you need italian language i'm here :D
[Android Apps and Games] jakuburban:
Would like to try it very much, but I can't download it. It says that X10 isn't supported. Can I get an apk link to to try it (anyway) if it works ?
[Android Apps and Games] greenday123:
You can try to install the .apk directly.

Here is a link to the file:

bit(DOT)ly/DeskNotifier_APK

(replace "(DOT)" with ".", i can't post links)

Please give me Feedback if it worked for you!
[Android Apps and Games] jakuburban:
Thanks man, it works. If You can, please enable the app on android market to download it officially with Xperia X10.
[Android Apps and Games] greenday123:
The Developer Console says that Xperia X10 is supported (and enabled). I don't know why you can't download it! Sorry!
[Android Apps and Games] jakuburban:
Can't install it with PC and X10

Here's a result of searching:

Just what i was looking for, working on my EVo (info in my sig), Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] cypressious:
Great idea. I have also thought about the accessibility approach to access some data, Android wouldn't hand out to apps. The next step would be capturing Whatsapp messages and the last sending :).
[Android Apps and Games] greenday123:
Thanks! You can receive Whatsapp Messages via DeskNotifier! Sending of WhatsApp messages is impossible, because WhatsApp does not provide an API :mad:
[Android Apps and Games] underface:
Very nice, its work fine but design not enought fine.

in my computer windows where we select language dont hide on start
[Android Apps and Games] cypressious:
Yeah right, but you can't see the message text, can you?

[Android Apps and Games] conantroutman:
Perhaps I'm overlooking something simple here but I cannot get this to work.

The service doesn't appear to start on the device as no notification is displayed in the status bar and sending the test message doesn't work.

This is on an SGS2 running a CM9 based 4.0.4 ROM. Like I said, I may be doing something stupid but I can't seem to get this running at all.
[Android Apps and Games] greenday123:
The notification is shown as soon as the PC connects to your phone. Maybe that's your problem!

Make sure that you have ticked the first checkbox and then setup the PC-Software.

Make sure, that the Wifi-IP of your Phone is correctly set in your PC-Software (and your Phone is connected to your Wifi-network ;))!

Then it should work!
[Android Apps and Games] conantroutman:
Thanks man but like I said, I was just being a complete idiot.... :o

I should really have coffee before doing things like this.....

I've fixed the links in the first post for you and I'm gonna write this up for the Portal btw ;) Nice work.
[Android Apps and Games] himzzz:
Works flawlessly, I'm using wifi to connect it...

There's still some non-english text on the application..

like when I want to send a text message and the successfully message sent.
[Android Apps and Games] greenday123:
Great! I'm glad that it works now! And thanks for your Help! :)

Great! But I'd like to use it on my Mac :X

Once upon a time there was a similar open source app, but no longer works...

code dot google dor com / android-notifier (XDA doesn't want me psoting links :/)

They look pretty similar, any chances of using its code to build Mac and Linux clients? I think I could help :)
[Android Apps and Games] mike.sw:
any chance there's a planned support for mac osx (possibly using growl for notifications?)

(woops they guy above me asked for the exact same thing)

anyway, if you can take a look, growl api is pretty easy:

the app is perfect unless for the memory consumption (+40M on idle).

if i deactivate accesibilty the memory consuption reduces at 4.5M.

anybody with this problem?

Not able to get this to work on MIUI v4 with my Galaxy Nexus. Anyone able to get it going on MIUI V4. Tried USB and wifi

Great app, works fine in my motorola atrix & windows 7
[Android Apps and Games] jasonsf:
Is there any thought of having the android client have the configurable IP and telling it where the Desktop client is? It is more likely, in my experience, that the desktop will have a fixed IP and the mobile device will have a dynamic IP. If we could enter the IP of the desktop in the phone, then it should change much less often. Also, having mutiple, "favorite" desktop configurations (maybe for different IP masks) for, example, home and work.

Like the post a few posts back mentioned, take a look at Android Notifier. It worked really well.
[Android Apps and Games] c00ller:
This is a great app. The SMS replying feature could use some polishing, though. For example, I have the app language set to English but the Send button is in German, and when I press Enter or Send, I get a confirmation message in German. Also, the SMS input field is very limited vertically, and there is no way to change the size. Ideally it would auto-expand vertically instead of forcing the user to scroll horizontally.
[Android Apps and Games] mikeszf:
I just updated the desktop client to version 1.1.1 and It doesn't make any sound, the client show the notification but there is no sound at all. I reinstalled 1.1.0 and it works perfectly.
[Android Apps and Games] wergor:
on my galaxy s3 i sometimes cannot connect to the phone, i then have to switch wifi on and off (on the phone) to be able to reconnect. the phone's ip address stays the same.

If you look at the Changelog in the zip file...
[Android Apps and Games] Thatgrass:
Amazing! Thank you sooo much!

Don´t forget to install android app on ur phone ;)

EDIT: sorry, I got you wrong :p
[Android Apps and Games] wergor:
i didn't forget about that :p

another thing... sometimes, when i shutdown the pc (and desknotifier worked fine before) the app on the phone still thinks it is connected to the pc (the notification bar icon is still there).
[Android Apps and Games] mikeszf:
The setting say that the sound is activated and at the max level
[Android Apps and Games] frenzyboi:
Sorry for bump! I hope the dev is working on this. This app deserves more attention.

If not, I hope for it to be open source so interested devs may work on it. Thanks!(:

Desknotifier via USB not working on NExus s

Thank you for developing fantastic application. I spent 5 hours yesterday to get it work but gave up. I have Google nexus s and windows 7 pc. I am trying to connect through USB but everytime it says to install phone drivers. I also enable USB Debugging. No matter what I do, everytime it throws the smae error. Please please help.
[Android Apps and Games] WNijhof:
Great app! Works like a charm:good:
[Android Apps and Games] Aganar:
Will give this a try when I get home. Thanks!

Sent from my CM9 Epic 4G Touch
[Android Apps and Games] i_m_jughead:
I would appreciate if some body can help me to troubleshoot why I am not able to get the USB connection established. I have the drivers installed as well as adb debugging enabled. I checked that device is connected to the computer and when i run adb devices command, i do see my phone. So I concluded my phone is connected to the computer and is visible to the adb.

BTW I am running windows XP

Thanks in advance.

Update:I tried connecting by WiFi and it worked....i disconnected it from WiFi and tried adb connect via USB and it worked :)

Update 2: once again it has stopped working, i cant get it to connect to my phone using usb
[Android Apps and Games] Natzer.HD2:
Mhh nice App, but when its ported to Linux?
[Android Apps and Games] outta757:
Nice app works good
[Android Apps and Games] NoTnERb:
great app, I've been using it ever since. Just a quick question, how do I read an incoming text on my laptop? When I click on the new SMS notification on my laptop it dismisses it. Sometimes when I click it though, it lets me read it so it's been hit or miss with me. I would like to know the exact way, thanks :)
[Android Apps and Games] duxxyuk:
This is brilliant on the Sony Ericsson Ray - Install the USB/adb drivers from sony (http://developer.sonymobile.com/cws/devworld/search-downloads/driver) and install this and it works right away... I love the respond to SMS feature :)
[Android Apps and Games] the_scotsman:
Great potential, but I wish it as possible to choose which apps we receive notifications for.

I use Tasker, and it is always doing stuff, and I got a LOT of notifications from Tasker that I didn't need to see on screen.

Might try agian at a later date once it's further refined. Great work though :)
[Android Apps and Games] JustusIV:
Any plans on making it work via the internet and not just wifi?
[Android Apps and Games] Matze5800:

[Android Apps and Games] frenzyboi:
Is the dev mia? ): I would really love to develop this!
[Android Apps and Games] Asovse1:
Very well done, though I have some suggestions:

1) I'm prioritizing receiving notifications on my phone instead of my tablet because texts are more important, my tablet is my primary device however. If you could push notifications from 1+ devices, that'd be super!

2) Synker notifications happen every few minutes for me and it spams the notification bar. I need this on my phone, but not my PC. If you could hide notifs from certain apps, that'd be wonderful!

Oh right, I'd install this on my tablet like I said, but the app doesn't support Jelly Bean, yet.
[Android Apps and Games] greenmaze:
FYI, new app and PC version is available.

Feature request: Auto connect when phone is connected via USB. I often get up from my desk and take my phone with me, so it would be nice if I didn't have to manually reconnect every time I plug my phone back into USB.

Thanks for the app!
[Android Apps and Games] greenday123:
Pro Version

Many people asked for a pro version wich can send files to the PC and to the Phone and where you can filter your notifications.

Now i had time and implemented the most wished features!

check it out here:

http://en.desknotifier.clemens-elflein.de/functions.php
[Android Apps and Games] the_scotsman:
I just bought the paid version as I wanted to be able to choose which notifications appear.

One suggestion would be to have a "Select all" and "De-select all" buttons in the list where you can select each app. It's a pain to have to manually deselect each individual app.

Other than that, it's working great so far on Windows 8 :good:

EDIT: A couple of requests:

- Integration with Tasker would be brilliant. be able to start and stop the service from Tasker wold be very handy, so that the service can be disabled when I leave the house of office. This kind of functionality is already in Android Notifier, but it doesn't get updated and doesn't work on Windows 8.

- Be able to choose how long the notification bubble stays on screen. I'd prefer to have the bubble stay on screen if my computer has been idle for a few minutes (meaning I'm away from the computer), so that when I return, I see the bubble on my screen. But if I'm using the computer and not idle, the bubble only comes up for 5-10 seconds. This is also in Android Notifier and I would love to see it in yours :)
[Android Apps and Games] NlBO:
This is helpful to see when my text plus goes off among other apps. Kudos
[Android Apps and Games] the_scotsman:
After using it all day, it seems I keep losing connection to my phone for some reason. I keep having to reconnect which is annoying as the notifications stop working. I'm using it over Wifi.

EDIT: Further testing. It loses connection only after a short time. Is there any way I can diagnose this as the app is useless if it keeps losing connection with my latpop.
[Android Apps and Games] gaberad:
Just wanted to +1 these requests.
[Android Apps and Games] murr4y:
I installed the app but when I'm directed to the accessability options I see no entry for Desknotifier!

Someone else having this problem? I'm on CM 10.1 Jelly Bean.
[Android Apps and Games] deathblade:
please add JB accessability support
[Android Apps and Games] Major Clod:
I also would like see JB accessibility menu support - Nexus 4 Factory Rom
[Android Apps and Games] emudojo:
Same here, under JB there's no way to grant permission to view access notifications :S
[Android Apps and Games] britoso:
Running JB here too. I tried making the app a system app, but it still needs the accessibility permission granted.

I see LightFlow and Talkback under the services section of accessibility, but no DeskNotifier :(
[Android Apps and Games] fsi09:
What about JB support ?
[Android Apps and Games] abzzzzy:
I'm also waiting for JB support. On Revolution HD ROM on Galaxy Nexus.
[Android Apps and Games] ohTwadi:
+1 for Jelly Bean support. I'm using Galaxy Nexus with JB 4.2.2 and can't see DeskNotifier in my Accessibility settings. Basically renders the app useless for me. If this JB support can be added, I will buy the Pro version :)

Java not found

couldn't get it work. i installed java 6 jre x64 bit version.but if i start on my pc, i got the error said " the registry refers to a non existent Java Runtime environment installation.

which directory the app is searching for ? There is a path to the JRE. I can call on the command prompt the java executable from anyplace.

Damn I just found this application, got everything installed only to find that it's pretty much dead. Wellllllll thennn
[Android Apps and Games] Asovse1:
Use Android Desktop Notifications or Krome, instead!
[Android Apps and Games] grinandbearit:
i dont wanna have to have a open browser to get notifications... so both solutions wont work for me
[Android Apps and Games] Asovse1:
You don't have to open the browser, the apps support notifying in the background (on Windows, Chrome can be a background app and can run 24/7).
[Android Apps and Games] grinandbearit:
ahh ok thx i did not know that! works like a charm
[Android Apps and Games] ckingpin:
same problem on Samsung I9192 Galaxy S4 Mini Duos

Android 4.3.3

AP:I9192XXUAMF7

CP:I9192XXUAMF7

CSC: I9192OJVAMF3

I see Talkback under the services section of accessibility, but no DeskNotifier

Please let me know how to solve this issue or (if possible) suggest me another way to check WHATSAPP notifications from my PC (Android Desktop Notifications and Krome don't manage WHATSAPP notifications)
[Android Apps and Games] badai:
it's not dead. i just installed it. can run 2 instances for 2 phone.

the chrome thing does not notify for incoming call, only notify when the called is missed. kind of sucks. this is much, much better.
[Android Apps and Games] vqoley7:
this app i want it... it will going saving my app btw i too lazy to take my phone... lol.
[Android Apps and Games] Ign0tus:
App is working fine on for me. I don't have the accessibility options like everyone else is saying, so I guess that means that I won't receive notifications from 3rd party apps, but that's not my primary use anyway. I just wanted something that will display on my PC screen when I receive a call or a text message WITHOUT sending my data through a 3rd party service over the web like Moaxis or Pushbullet. Wifi would be OK, but I prefer USB. I just don't trust my information with a 3rd party. I don't know them for one, and anyone can be susceptible to a breach as evidenced by Target or Heartbleed for example. You just never know.

I wear earbuds while I game, and I usually have my phone face down on the desk somewhere with Samsung's "blocking mode" enabled. I still get text and call notifications, but the phone doesn't ring or sound an audible alert due to blocking mode. Calls go directly to voicemail as if the phone was turned off, the exception being that my wife can still call me as normal in case of an emergency since she's on the "allow" list. I tested by sending and receiving texts to and from her, and I had her call me. I get the notifications immediately. Hell, I think the notification for the phone call may have popped up before the phone actually rung. :good: It works while I have a full-screen app running like a game too.

Device: US Cellular Galaxy S3

Android OS: 4.3 rooted stock

Blocking Mode Enabled

PC OS: Windows 7 x64 SP1

Connected via USB with debugging enabled in Android options

Installed Samsung USB driver (if I recall correctly, been a while)

Using previously installed adb.exe
[Android Apps and Games] the_scotsman:
I used to love this software. it's a pity the OP/dev didn't continue updating it as I would still be using it if he did.
[Android Apps and Games] Ign0tus:
I guess I spoke too soon. It worked fine yesterday, but today it won't stay connected and choosing "reconnect" doesn't work. Does anyone know of any software that will display text messages and incoming calls on the PC screen WITHOUT sending your data outside of your own network? Even a USB connection is fine.
[Android Apps and Games] nqnguyen2:
Do you anticipate on including bluetooth connections? The reason is because I wifi tether to my phone with my laptop and it doesn't recognize my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] rebel1699:
Thanks, and great work! Flawless on my Skyrocket i727. Not showing as compatible for my LG Thrill, though. Ill try to install the .apk to it directly. Will report if it works correctly. Great work again, man!
[Android Apps and Games] lokie538:
Wow just what I needed, I put my phone on silent a lot and miss out of notifications, but now I won't!

Just a suggestion for the future, can you include some sort of authentication, as I live on a multi user WiFi setup and other people could potentially connect and get my notifications.
[Android Apps and Games] TMinh:
This's so cool!!! I'm tired of turning on my phone to reply sms while using my laptop, so this definitely solve my problem :D Thanks :D
[Android Apps and Games] mikeszf:
This is just what I have been looking for, I always miss some calls and messages when wearing the headphones and it is just perfect because is over wifi, so if i´m away from home the computer wont notify.

And now my doses of feedback:

I think you should add a password or an id for the connection at least at first time, like airdroid and itunes does. It can also be optional. On my network are 3 computers, some times more. If someone wants to spy on my just have to install the client and find the ip of the phone, I don't think it is my case but you´ll never know…
[Android Apps and Games] Slybone:
So I wanted to point out a small bug. After selecting English as my language, when I send a SMS to someone, it will show the confirmation of the message being sent in German.

Besides that it's an awesome application. I use DeskSMS right now but it's riddled with bugs
[Android Apps and Games] dangabob13:
Replying to SMS

Hello, I have been waiting for someone to build this. Thank you so much.

After I installed it, everything was running as expected. Shortly there after, though, the functionality to reply directly from the toaster window has ceased. Now when I left click, right click, or anything else, it just clears the message and I must select "New SMS" to send the person a response.

Am I missing some setting? I've looked everywhere.

Thank you again.
[Android Apps and Games] Magissia:
Why not allowing tf101 to use it ?

I know that it cannot send sms by default, but using 3rd app you can send sms from it. (or any other androtablet)

Plus it can recieve notifications too

Now you will say, why not just linking the phone ? Because the phone used as "proxy" to send sms from tf101 may not be an android phone !

Regards
[Android Apps and Games] billbowers:
Just a wonderful program. Thanks so much for this. Wondering if in future builds, you might consider adding a simple on off widget. Works flawlessly though wifi and USB. Thank you again.
[Android Apps and Games] ptrickg7776:
Awesome Idea!
[Android Apps and Games] cajunflavoredbob:
I like it so far. I normally use Mighty Text for desktop SMS replies.

I noticed two possible bugs. One was mentioned previously. Sent notifications are shown in English and German no matter which language you select. Secondly, if you are using a third party SMS client, like Handscent SMS, you get double notifications. I have notifications turned off for the normal messages application, but it still displays the notification on the desktop even though none is displayed on my phone.

Using a T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II (SGH-T989 Hercules)

It's nice. I just wanna know, if I keep the app running, is it terminated when the wifi is off or does it always remains running? This is bad for battery!!
[Android Apps and Games] namelez:
HMMM

So... I guess if you guys did not know there was another one out before...So your excitement is strange. the app is more improved then its predecessor and i hope the development does not stop. but i thought that this type of project was open sourced on the google code site? just wondering not trolling or anything just a noob. learning and reading.
