Is there anyway to add a alert to other events not listed in the alerts menu.
At the moment there is no alert for when pop3 mail arrives.
TIA
Hi,
Try: control panel, personal tab, sounds and notifications, notifications, then click the dropdown box and look for "Messaging: New e-mail message" then choose your sound, let me no how u get on!
tried that already...no joy :-(

I have a brand new Cingular 8125. I have it checking for email updates from 4 different (POP) accounts every 15 minutes. ROM Version 2.25.11.1 WWE (default). I have every possible Notification in 'Sounds and Notifications' to beep, ring, flash and vibrate when new emails, sms and mms come in. Text messages make a sound and vibrate. I can't for the life of me get the emails to notify me when they come in. I've tried Inbox open, Inbox Minimized and Inbox Closed.
Does anyone have any idea on this? I've searched this forum for a good answer to this question but I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for unfortunately.
Thanks!
On My Wizard if I go to Settings > Sounds and Notifications>Notifications I only get the option to add sounds to "Messaging: new email message" I don't get any other options for emails (Many more for other events). I'm not sure where you are seeing the options to add sounds for "Inbox open, Inbox Minimized and Inbox Closed."
I apologize for not really being that clear. What I meant was that I tested whether it would vibrate with the Inbox open on the screen, with the Inbox minimized and with the Inbox completely closed. What appears to have happened is, after setting those parameters in the Sounds and Notifications settings, the Wizard wouldn't start vibrating for emails until I Soft Reset it. Once I soft reset it later that afternoon, it appears to have worked fine.
Thanks!
Hi
I've gout my Touch HD syncing with Exchange Server, and so constantly get a 'Notification' on the screen that requires dismissing, as new e-mails arrive.
(I thought I would be able to go to Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications, then find the Messaging: New e-mail message and uncheck the 'display message on screen' but this isn't checked)
Are you only able to switch notifications on or off globally? I guess you still get an icon to indicate a missed call or sms.... what do other people do?
Thanks for any advice / comments
Try one of the Tweak software packages out there, I am sure there is something in there for notifications.
Regards
Tweak HD lets you switch SMS sent notifications on/off, but that's all.....
this has been asked previously, but went unnoticed. has anyone figured out the way to wake up the device if you receive an email while in standby. i use hd tweak to enable wake up for sms, and to enable wifi on standby, but there's no point in that if the device doesn't wake up on new email.
I have the same problem with all the ROMs I've tried.
Never seem to get notification of new emails as and when my hotmail account is automatically checked as per set schedule.....
do you want the light to flash
if yes you should go to sounds& notifications and click on new email were it allows you to change tones display message on screen and flash when recieving a new email.
if i receive an email in standby, the sound plays, but LED doesnt flash, nor does the device wake up. i was hoping since it was made possible for sms, we can make it happen for email as well.
I'd like this too... I have trawled through google search and these forums but no luck yet....
Have you tried going to Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Event "Messaging: New e-mail message" and then selecting 'Display message on screen' & 'Flash lite for...' etc?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, but that doesn't work either. Only the LED flashes, but the device doesn't wake up. The reason why I want it is that the LED doesn't flash if the device is being charged at the same time.
Hello,
Is there a way of having a different tone for a new SMS and a different tone for a new Email recieved?
At the moment, all notifications sound the same, so you cannot distiguish between new email, sms etc, without looking at the phone.
Cheers,
Go to the relevant app e.g. gmail and then click menu and then change the notification sound to whatever you want...
You can set the sms sound in the sms settings, not for emails though so I guess emails use the default notification sound.
In Gmail menu > more > select ringtone
and you can change what appears in the list by creating folders for the notifications, then moving the sounds there
Problem with the phone is you can't have different tones for different people which is annoying.
You can have different ringtones for different contacts....
I hate the water droplet sound that the email has, I changed the sound in the sound settings but apprently it's seperate check all over in the app and I have no idea how to change it....
2. I want to be able to remove the WIFI in the notification shade, I don't mind the popup too much but I'd like to remove that also. I'm connected to wifi 80% of the time and that just takes screen real estate and clutters my screen.
Email sounds are changed in the settings menu of ths mail apps themselves. For example, if you're using Exchange, hit the menu button and select settings then select your email account listed and change the sound there. Gmail is the same way. Go to settings, then your email account then Select inbox spund and vibrate.
