After I have upgraded my XDA2 to the lastest Asia ROM, I got this issue. Whenever I sent out an SMS, the notification icon would appear on top telling me "Message Sent".
Normally, the icon would just go off. :shock: But now sometimes the icon would stay there until I do a soft reset. This never happen before the upgrade.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance.
I had this problem and eventually, it seemed to go away of it's own accord. Bloody annoying I know.

Hi,
Every now and then when I try to send an SMS from my XDA2 I press the send button in the top left corner and all that happens is that the cursor jumps to the end of the "to" field. Nothing else?
In order to be able to send an SMS once in this stat I have to turn off and turn back on the phone part and then everything works fine. It's only infrequently but when it happens it's quite annying.
This is my second XDA2 and both were running the 1.60.00WWE Rom with 1.10.00 Radio and both suffered from the problem.
Has anybody got any ideas?
Thanks,

@ads_green,
although I can´t help you out here, I still can confirm that bug on my machine
My machine:
Vodafone Personal Assistant (Qtek 2020)
ROM-Version 1.66.01GER
ROM-Date 02/23/04
Radio-Version 1.10.00
Protokoll-Version 1337.18
ExtRom-Version 1.66.143
Software installed:
Adobe Acrobat
Funny Snake TKCreater
Mobile-Banking
PocktZenPhone
PocketWeather
Total Commander
WisBar Advanced
VITO Voice Dialer
I see that we both use the same radio version.
Anybody else can confirm that bug ?

SMS problem
I can confirm the same problem you have but I noticed the following:
When I turn on the phone from a soft reset and after entering the
PIN for the telco network, the "G" icon (GPRS) briefly pops up
and beep sound is heard. This is normal
Occasionally this "G" icon comes up again and beep is heard for no reason.
When this happen, then I cannot send SMS like you mentioned.
Receiving SMS is OK. Making and receiving calls is OK also.
Also at this time
START--->SETTINGS---->PHONE cannot be accessed.
Nothing happens when clicked.
The only way to get out is to SOFT RESET.
However one time I tried to investigate further and check the processes
and applications, open/closing other software, etc. the system
went into a HARD REST automatically.
I suspect the problem is due to the phone settings software part.
It could also be a SIM card problem or a loose contact with SIM card.
I also have the same ROM.
Anyone has any ideas?
I have the exact same problem recently and that 'G' icon keeps appearing, i find that if i turn my phone onto Flight mode then back to normal, it resolves this for a while but doesnt stop it happening!
Have been trying to search for this topic here for a while. The red flashing light on the XDA2 wont turn back to yellow when a notification is dismissed or snoozed. The only way i can get it to return to normal status is if i receive an SMS, or i go to Sounds and Notifications. What's up with that? and how do i fix it?

have you tried setting the time limit of the flashing red light? start/settings/sounds¬ifications/notifications. select an event ( eg: inbox New SMS message) uncheck the flash light box. that should solve your problem.
'been experiencing the same problem intermittently. Especially when some of my reminder went off or when I receive an SMS. What I usually do is perform a soft-reset, at least once a day. =)
I cant really disable the flash coz i need to be notified of events, meetings, etc. Its weird coz if i force an alarm (say, 2 mins from current time), alarm goes off, i dismiss it, works red flash goes away. Works without a hitch. But if its an event that's been scheduled for, say, a day or so... red flash whole day unless i go to sounds and notifications.

I've also had this problem on occasion. Fortunately there is a less harsh solution than a soft-reset...
Use Start | Settings | Sounds & Notifications | Notifications tab, then drop down the Event combo box and select any other event than the first and tap OK.
This procedure doesn't actually change any of your settings but does seem to reset the light.
thanks... I'll remember this one once that glitch happens again... =)
This is exactly what I do. Was hoping there's already a registry solution or patch out. Kinda irritating if you have lots of meetings in a day.

There is no need to do anything else after selecting Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Notifications. Just tap OK immediately after that and the red blinking light will go away.
This problem only started occurring when I updated the ROM to 1.60. The previous ROM didn't have this problem.
On occasions l have that just going into start/settings/sounds & notifications, and then hitting ok, sometimes does not kill the light. Seems to depend on the kind of event that triggered the alarm in the first place.... Either way, just hiting ok or going the extra step as suggested earlier in the thread seems to deal with it.
bug.
the RED flash notification light is another bug in the 1.60 and 1.66 WWE ROM, yes SETTINGS-NOTIFICATIONS-OK seems to solve the problem and there is no registry hack. Though, IT IS BETTER to soft reset your device once in a while to REFRESH the memory, to avoid damaging the tiny soft reset button, install a soft reset program and just tap to SOFT RESET.
As presented by T3 Magazine, The XDA 2 is the smartest PDA, but its not perfect, though I STILL LOVE MY XDA 2.
RED flash notification bug fixed in 1.72?

Does this mean that the problem is gone in 1.72WWE ?
I've not done the upgrade yet because 1.66 has been very stable (for me) but this might just be the reason I've been waiting for ...
Well I'm under 1.72 WWE and I have the same problem but ever since I insstalled a Socket WiFi card. The driver installs a new Notification Event called WIFIICON and every time I insert the WiFi card and the system detects a hotspot the notification light (red) will continue to blink forever. If I go to notifications and select, say 5 minutes, it will continue forever, if I disable it, it will disable until the next WiFi session and then have to repeat procedure all over again... :?
It does not bother me much, but since a WiFi session by itself consumes lots of battery the last thing in my mind is having another power consuming feature turned on.

You missed a crucial step. You should go to Start -> Settings -> Sounds & Notifications -> Notifications and after pressing the OK button, the red blinking light will go away. Don't forget to select the Notifications tab. It works in my unit every time.
After picking up on this thread, I have been monitoring the 'clear' function more closely and up to now, touch wood, being in notifications and just hitting ok, seems to be doung the trick. I am pretty sure I have tried the same thing in the past and, on occa ion, it has not worked without changing an event. But my memory may be playing tricks with me I'll continue to monitor and see if any come up...hopefully not

Not on my device. It is necessary to select a different notification for the screen to 'realise' a change has occurred and kill the light.
The problem is, the Wifi and new SMS notification doesnt automatically pop-up.
It actually started with my new hotspot notification. Since I dont use wifi that often, I ignored it.
Yesterday, the same thing happened with my SMS notification. I still hear the new SMS sound. I still get the new SMS icon on the start bar. Only problem is, it doesnt automatically display at the bottom like it used to. I either have to click the icon or hit the left soft key.
Has anyone experienced the same?
I know its a minor problem but I've already gotten used to the function.

Hello,
I have looked everywhere but can not find any setting for it, and i have upgraded to the latest stock htc rom but still same issue:
Sometimes, only sometimes, when I get a new text/sms message the phone beeps about it, but sometimes it just flashes the green light and no sound. When I turn the display on, it takes a second and then! the beep! for a new text/sms is played. It is very annoying, as I can go hours without knowing I actually have a new message.
Anyone else have this issue? anyone know the solution?
thanks in advance,
modano
yea it happens to me too, duno y tho. Sometimes mine vibrate with no sound and the vibration doesn't stop either, just keeps going.
HTC released a hotfix, go check their website.
I had this problem and found a post on this forum which fixed it:

The advanced config tool is knocking around somewhere, should come up easily in a search, hope that helps...
Volume changes - For instance, I'm at work and I sent my phone to silent or vibrate first thing in the morning. Then, on my break I would use my phone but not change the silent or vibrate mode at all. All of a sudden, I'm off my break working, and my phone would ring and I would be like "WTF, I put it on silent/vibrate" .....and this doesn't happen all the time, just occasionally on its own. Anyone else having this issue?
SMS text not showing - With this issue, I would tap the text message box and would see myself texting, then all of a sudden I can't see what I'm typing at all, until I tap the text box again. It gets hella annoying and want to know if this issue was apart of the SMS bug issue.
Please give me advice for any or both of my issues. Thanks

I get that same issue, in my case the cause is a new message appearing in the thread, while I'm still composing a reply to an earlier one...any time that happens, my text input box disappears behind the keyboard, until I close and open it again.
+1 i have the same issue, super ****ing annoying
