QuietTelegram for Android

This repo is a fork of official Telegram for Android repository. It's intention is to make notifications less annoying with minimal changes to the codebase.

It works just like that: the message sound (and vibration) is played only when there's no notifications from this particular chat in notification area. If you swipe out the notification, the sound will be played again the next time a notification arrives.

Compilation Guide

You will require Android Studio 3.4, Android NDK rev. 20 and Android SDK 8.1

1. Download the source code from https://github.com/SY573M404/QuietTelegram
2. Copy your release.keystore into TMessagesProj/config
3. Fill out RELEASE_KEY_PASSWORD, RELEASE_KEY_ALIAS, RELEASE_STORE_PASSWORD in local.properties to access your release.keystore
4. Go to https://console.firebase.google.com/, create two android apps with application IDs org.telegram.messenger and org.telegram.messenger.beta, turn on firebase messaging and download google-services.json, which should be copied to the same folder as TMessagesProj (that's where unclear part of the README begins. It clearly says to put the file into the repository root, but in the upstream repository it is located inside of TMessagesProj dir).
5. Open the project in the Studio (note that it should be opened, NOT imported).
6. Fill out values in TMessagesProj/src/main/java/org/telegram/messenger/BuildVars.java – there’s a link for each of the variables showing where and which data to obtain.
7. Run gradle :TMessagesProj_App:assembleAfatRelease to actually build the APK for the Google Play version. That should work the same for other versions too, but I haven't really tested it.
