Turn off all notifications except for phone calls at night?

I leave my phone on my nightstand every night, in case of an emergency call in the middle of the night. However, not sure if it's the Evo or Sprint, sometimes I'll hear a voicemail notification or some other beep in the middle of the night. Is there a way (app, setting...) so that at night the phone will only sound for incoming calls, but leave all other notifications off so that you won't be waking up for a voicemail, a facebook update or something like that? Thanks!

I'm sure there are other apps but I've been using phone weaver for years. It allows you to change numerous settings based on different rules (time, location, etc). It will accomplish what you are looking for and a whole lot more.

I use 'sound manager' and schedule my volumes for whatever I want, whenever I want.

I use an application called Locale that works flawlessly. Using different "condition", such as Gps location or time, you can set the phone to do certain things, such as changing volumes or even launching a program!

I ride my Harley with the phone in the saddle bag on a cigar lighter charger. I bluetooth the radio to my headset. What sucks is when I get a call, it knocks out my WunderRadio and it never re-acquires. Since I can't take a call while riding anyhow, I would like to turn the phone off but still be able to stream data. Is that possible?

Just tap menu/settings/sound/volume and turn "notifications" all the way down.then phone calls and alarms are all that will make noise.unless you use tikl or something.then you'd have to turn "media"down as well.

youd need the equivelant of Force EVDO for winMO.. since calls and texts come in on 1x, Forcing EVDO means they cant come through and your data keeps going... Im sure ANdroid has something like this - Id be suprised if they dont..

If you ride in a 4G area, you could turn the mobile network off, but turn 4G on. I did that by accident once. Of course my navigation software started giving me warnings when I left the 4G area. Fortunately, by then I kinda knew where I was going.
